My daughter and her partner & 2 girls are coming to Icmeler 4th September can anyone offer tips and hints other than the usual ones?? The swim nappies are an issue at the min as the baby will only just be one and is not allowed a luggage allowance! They are staying at Ekinci Palace, are they near enough launderette, shops, take away, supermarket etc. Thanks in advance to anyone else travelling with a 2year old with a one year old sister

Hi I dont think that you can buy swim nappies over there as we took some for the ICR girl (cant remember her name :oops: ) little girl last year.

:lol: ekinci palace is close enough to supermarket and shops so nappies should not be and issue. friends of ours stayed in this hotel last year and were well pleased with it. have a great time and enjoy icemeler

You can buy the swim nappies over there but they are about twice the price than what you would pay at home. Know as we were stung for them last year

We were lucky when our wee one was 19months we went to spain but were in a crowd so everyone helped us out and took some nappies for us so no help for you there...... but did buy disposable bibs from boots they were great and every little helps :)

You could always try these vacum packed bags for the nappies at least they wont take up so much room .........but think thats probably the daftest idea yet

Oh well as they say down there for dancing :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

long shot, but do they sell them at the airport at this end? Manc has a Boots but not sure if their [limited] range extends to swim nappies?

can you get washable ones? or would that be impractical?
:oops: :oops: it's years since mine were small and such things hadn't been invented, so apologies if I'm way off the mark!

although its a few years ago when mine were in nappies we used to put them as a covering on bottom of suitcase, and use them to pad corners, then put them in the lid bit where you put shoes. Think we used to take about 2 bags of nappies with and usually used most of them.

Then we used to put quite a lot in hand luggage.

You'd be surprised what you fit in.

In those days we didnt have those swimming nappies, and do remember having quick dashes back to the room when they did more than a wee.

Eldest daughter remembers quite vividly one said trip. She's 17 now.

that's all I used for my first 3 !! aw, a washing line full of clean nappies - happy days :lol:

.........anyway, back to topic before Col chases me :oops:

you can get baby-life jackets which are great, much better than arm bands I think?
