In reply to Anonymous. We brought a little bubble stick that makes the tiniest bubbles, so yes, acceptable at a restaurant. Nom we did not baby proof the room. Yes, we hand washed. Reusable swim diapers work exactly like regular diapers. We went through about 3-4 a day. We didn't use the high chairs, we brought our own (per this post), but you could use restaurant high chairs, yes.

Thank you so much for all the helpful information. Yours is by far the best I’ve come across online. I really appreciate that there are references to the items you brought and that they won’t break the bank, given that most of that will be bought specifically for the trip.

I have a few questions please.
You made mention of bubbles that you brought to keep Luca busy at dinner. Bubbles that you blow? They were acceptable at the restaurant?
Also, did you baby proof the room?
Did you just hand wash those items in the sink and air dry?
How do reusable swim diapers work exactly? How many disposable swim diapers did you go through on any given day?
When you ate at restaurants, did you just use their high chairs?

I love the idea of having ziplock bags of a diaper, outfit, and wipes already to go!! And also putting all of Luca’s things out on his own space. Also, the baby monitor!

You really did an excellent job of explaining why and including every necessity. Thanks again for helping to ease my anxiety of traveling for the first time with my almost 9 month old.
