Tips

Family Travel #9

Bring food for a quick, simple meal when you arrive: bagel, breakfast cereal, a whole salami, tuna in pouches, canned salmon, sardines, beans and corn niblets – and don’t forget the can opener!

Family Travel #8

A plastic dish tub to wash dishes (or as suggested by one friend, stack the dirty dishes on the counter, then hold them with one hand, and wash and rinse them under running water).

Family Travel #7

Don’t forget to pack Shabbos candles, matches and wine. A box of matzo can be used if kosher bread isn’t available.

Family Travel #6

Buy perishables such as yogurt, cheeses, margarine and milk when you arrive at your destination. Fresh fruits and vegetables can also be bought at any supermarket or corner grocery store. Pasta and rice are easily available with a hechsher. Consider special dietary needs such as gluten-free diets, allergies and diabetic choices before you leave for your trip.
