Winter vacation things you might forget to pack

Don't forget to pack these winter essentials:

• Sunscreen: Even in the winter, the sun can be strong and reflect off the snow. Protect your skin by applying sunscreen before heading outdoors.

• Lip balm: Cold, dry weather can cause dry, chapped lips. Keep them moisturized with a good lip balm.

• Hand and foot warmers: If you don't have heated socks, gloves, or insoles, grab some inexpensive disposable warmers. They can be a lifesaver for your cold hands and feet.

• Sunglasses and goggles: The winter elements can be harsh on your eyes, and the bright snow can be blinding. We recommend goggles with interchangeable lenses for varying conditions, as well as a pair of sunglasses.

• Swimsuit and flip-flops: Hot tubs are a popular après-ski activity at many mountain resorts. Pack your swimsuit and a pair of flip-flops to wear to and from the tub.
