The thought of organizing a sixteen day road trip with a family of five sounded like so much fun. 

The reality of PACKING for a family of five to get on the road for sixteen days in one minivan is a whole different story. Of course one of the very first questions I was asking myself was how the heck I was going to fit all the clothes we would all want to take along. I know that I could pack an entire bag just for Emily and me. So the thought of having to squeeze in clothes for hubby and my two sons was just making my nuts.

Don’t get me wrong, we have our own little luggage store in hiding around the house, but as the years have gone by the pieces have turned from our fancy luggage to black duffel bags. 

What I did not realize was that the American Tourister Colora #PackMoreFun was the official 

suitcase of Walt Disney World Resort  and Disneyland . Well, that was awesome news, since 

our #roadtrip2fun was taking us from NJ right down the coast to our destination: Florida!

Okay, so back to packing up everything but the kitchen sink. I have to wonder if other people have this problem, too. We pack up enough clothes to last months. We could literally LIVE in another location with the amount of clothes we usually take. I was destined this time just to pack enough for each of us to have five or six outfits-especially since we would have a washer/dryer in each of our Disney Resorts rooms.

Flash forward to packing day: Everyone had to give up five outfits and whatever other personal items they wanted packed. I know you won’t believe this: IT ALL FIT INTO THE 30″ Colora!!!!!!!!

Really, I should have made a video of it! This suitcase is BIG! Let me repeat: It ALL fit! I wanted to get down and kissed the ground because you know what that meant. If I could shove all the clothes into ONE bag, I could have another bag FREE to FILL with all the goods I was planning on buying on the trip! lol.

The American Tourister Colora loaded easily into our van with room all around it for our swimbag and overnighter, but for the most part everything was in the Colora. 

As far as moving the Colora, easy stuff: the rolling dual spin wheels made it a smooth pull from hotel to hotel.

Those wheels go in every direction possible and makes the suitcase just seem to glide. This was one of my favorite features. The retractable handle and side and top grab handles were a definite plus, too!

Our American Tourister Colora has become one of the family! She goes with us everywhere now. I think she would CRY if we left her behind! If you are looking for a bright and durable bag you really do not need to look any further. If the 30 inch it too big for you, the Colora also comes in 25″ and 20″. Only one problem, this bag may be addicting and secretly whisper to you while you are sleeping….”Get another…Get me some company…How about another color?”..
