"I'm Russ Handler, and I love to travel and I'm sure you do as well. You know planning a count down check list to your vacation day is so much fun. What's really nice about it, the entire family can get involved. Here's the best way to do it, start with your Itinerary, know where you're going to be and what you're going to do so, sixty days out, say to yourself, Ok, "well let's start with item number one, we're boarding a plane to Argentina, what will we need", write it down, the next day get that item. The next day, after you've got that item, go ahead and look at your landing zone and where you'll be the first day of your vacation, and then plan what you want to do, what you'll need, what you want to purchase while you're there, go ahead and jot that down. Then keep going in progression, based on your itinerary, it'll help you build a common model for the things that you need on your trip without overdoing it or, most importantly, under doing it. So, once again, a vacation check list is a fun thing to do, but should be based on your itinerary not on what you think you might need. I'm Ross Handler and that's how it's done."
