Help me pack...

[SASM]

I honestly cannot thank you all enough for the detailed responses!!! Noting everything. YIKES...It’s definitely going to be a challenge keeping to the weight limit. I am REALLY hoping to not check a bag.

I think you should suck it up and plan to check one. I do t really get the dread of checking a bag. I’ve had my bag get lost- I’m not naive. But it doesn’t add a significant amount of time at most airports and if it means you have the stuff you really need then just pack it.

We went 2 summers ago. In general, I wouldn’t have needed rain pants but if you are doing more outdoorsy stuff, they may help. For the fjords boat, they provided the outerwear. If you have comfy, supportive rain boots/shoes...definitely bring them. I otherwise packed my typical spring wardrobe as the temps are similar. A long raincoat, jeans and leggings, rain boots, athletic shoes, flats, layers. I never needed short sleeves, but my lightweight rain jacket and a scarf that I could put in my bag when not needed were key. A small umbrella.

I always check a bag and just make sure I have necessities in a carry on for everyone, just in case.

I got DS a fleece lined rain coat from LL Bean for wet weather at lower temps and it was awesome--they may still have them in stock. Or you can go the Marmot precip route--very good rain shell. But you need a fleece under it. I would say nothing cotton--all wicking clothing. Look at REI, LL Bean, Columbia for ideas.
