Ice pack

Hi everyone,

Given my bag will be transported daily I'm contemplating bringing my own ice pack. Has anyone done this before? Will they allow me to use their freezer? Alternatively, I'm thinking of bringing a bunch of instant ice packs.

Any thoughts?

Thanks again,
Sonia

Take some sturdy Ziplok bags, and ask for ice at bars (if you are using the ice packs for therapy). Glace in French, hielo in Spanish. Disposable ice packs are heavy and expensive, so they won't work very well.

Thanks again for the advice Falc. I think I'll opt to ask the guys at the bar for ice.
