Cash
In today’s high tech world, many people travel
without cash. Debit and credit cards are accepted most places, so it
seems somewhat silly to bother with cash when you can just use a card.
However, when you are going camping in your RV, you might want to think
twice about relying on cards only. Depending on your travel destination,
you might find yourself in a place where cards aren’t as universally
accepted. Also, some campgrounds may not be set up to take cards,
requiring you to leave a cash payment for your spot (this is often true
of government-run campgrounds). You don’t need to pack a large amount of
cash for your trip, but having even $100 in your wallet could come in
handy when you really need it.
Extra Socks
Certainly
you are already packing some socks for your trip, but taking more than
you will think you need is always a good idea. Having a fresh pair of
socks available when your feet are tired or sore is a great feeling, and
socks take up almost no room in your suitcase. Why are socks so
important while camping in an RV? Because of the activities you are
likely to take part in during your vacation. Many RV trips involve
hiking, playing near the water, or otherwise being active in some way.
All of these things can lead to sweaty, smelly socks. Therefore, it is
common to go through more than one pair of socks during the day – and
you could use as many as three or four pair depending on what you are
doing and where you are. Instead of having to limit your activities
because you don’t have enough clean socks, take extra and have as much
fun as you would like.
Outdoor Lights
It
is amazing how many RV travelers forget that they will want to spend
time outside of their RV after night has fallen. Your RV obviously has
lights on the inside, but it probably doesn’t have enough exterior light
for you to enjoy a starry evening out in the fresh air. Take a lantern
or other outdoor light source so you can sit around the table well into
the evening if you so choose. An RV makes for a great place to retire to
when the night is done, but you still want to be able to enjoy the
great outdoors for as much of your trip as possible.
