With a few days to go until Carnival 2K18,  it’s time to get everything in order & figure out what items you still need to be ready for everything the minute you touch down. With so much excitement pumping through your veins, please ensure to pack the essentials, as they would all come in handy.

Spare/Emergency Cash

If you ever get stuck in a jam, or if the unspeakable happens and you can’t locate your wallet, we suggest keeping at least $500 stashed somewhere safe.

Shoes/Footwear

Ladies, please make sure your boots and shoes are ½ or 1 size larger than normal! Remember, you’ll be on the road for hours and you don’t want those unattractive corns and bunions forming.

Sun Block

Ensure that you choose a water and sweat resistance sunscreen. Remember, you’re going to be sweating a lot. Also, SPF 15 product blocks about 94% of UVB rays; an SPF 30 product blocks 97% of UVB rays; and an SPF 45 product blocks about 98% of rays, so choose wisely.

Sunglasses

Protecting your eyes is very essential. Please pack an extra pair of sunglasses as your belongings break or get lost in all the Carnival action.

Jamieson Vitamin B12

Don’t lose your momentum! Keep Vitamin B12 tablets with you wherever you may go to ensure your immune system keeps up with all the vibes.

Spare Cell Phone/SIM Card

In case you lose your mobile phone, always be prepared! Having a spare phone comes in handy for Carnival season and due to increasing levels of petty theft, this is one thing that can always come to your rescue.

Please ensure your emergency kit is stocked with the items on the checklist above. Most of these items are inexpensive and easy to find, and any one of them could save your life this season. Stay prepared and be safe!
