But better to be safe than sorry when you have kids.
Always take:
Vegemite, Peanut butter, Mayple syrup (sometimes get pancakes at hotel but are very dry), Nurofen (better than finding a chemist when you need it) Polarmine, Gastrostop, Small 1st aid kit, Sunscreen (expensive over there) Insect rellant, Red cordial (taking the cascade brand this time), Swim nappies (if you have a infant/toddler), Pedalyte/hydralyte powder/iceblocks, Anything that I think I might need in an emergency (mainly from the medicine box at home)
Took pool toys in the past but you can get them over there.
Can't think what else is essential but my case is packed with other stuff too.
