Pacapod - baby changing bags

This Pacapod bag conveniently arrived the day before we left for our holiday.  Never really sure what a product will look like in the flesh, having only viewed it online, I was slightly nervous as I opened up the package.

However this bag did not disappoint - in fact it is fabulous.  It is of very high quality, well made, and looks great, and is highly functional, keeping you very organised.  For the last four and half years I have had a totally chaotic bag, with nappies, Hula Hoops, crayons, old bananas and spare vests all mingling together haphazardly.  My mum has often commented on the 'disgusting' state of my bag.

I opted for the Almora print changing bag in Sand - I love the colour and the design.  It has two pods within it - one for all the nappy changing stuff like wipes, nappy bags (it comes with a special little pull-string bag to keep these in), little pockets for the Sudocrem and handwash, and a segment to keep the nappies secure - totally fabulous!  The other pod is for snacks and food, and is insulated.  There is then a section at the top to keep miscellaneous items such as toys, magazines etc - this section is deceptively big - a lady sitting next to us in a cafe remarked that 'every mum should have a bag like that - it seems to be bottomless', as I piled yet more kiddie paraphernalia inside it.  This bag stands upright, is wipe-clean, and is the total business.  Not really being a bag person myself, I LOVE IT!

Pacapod have a whole range of bags in different styles, colours and designs - go take a look at their website and see what you think.  I would have absolutely no hesitation is recommending these bags.  This bag has so many features I have probably forgotten to mention a lot of them, so here is what Pacapod say about this particular bag (the technical bits too):
