We always take some, but the groceries will provide most of anything you would
want, might be higher, just as Cal said. Depends on how long you will be there
& how much cooking or eating in you plan on. We have been going for 2 weeks,
so I usually take some frozen hamburger and spices in baggies, a picnic salt
and pepper, etc. We've been going after Spring Break, and have found in the
past that our choices can be limited, but now the groceries have changed so
they may be stocking better. Last year, we found Solomons and really liked
them. If you do take food, don't over do it, just what you know you will need
or use, anything else can be found there.
