Don't forget to bring a few pairs of socks, including some thicker ones for cooler days. A hat, scarf, and gloves may also come in handy for those chilly spring mornings or evenings.

Lastly, it's always good to pack a couple of versatile outfits that can be dressed up or down for different activities or outings.
