Right on Gini! More room in the suitcase for me! Yipee!

Hi,

YES! It was great! It was one less thing we had to worry about or pack. My husband ordered the pkg with the two jackets. It was so convienient. The tux arrived at our cabin door the first day of the cruise and the steward came to pick it up the last day of the cruise. I just ordered the same pkg for our upcoming cruise. No hassle, no muss, no fuss. So go ahead and suprise her. There is nothing handsomer than a man in a tux! Have a wonderful cruise.

Hi all,

Just a quick note to anyone going to Alaska. I took one of those small foldable umbrella and sure was glad. When we got off the ship in Juneau and waiting for the excursion bus, it was raining that awful misty rain that soaks you thru. There I was with my umbrella, nice and dry. I had lots of people say, why didn't they think of one. HHHMMMMM must be because I live in rainy Oregon?! LOL! :D Anyway, just one more thing on the "to take list".

It was our first cruise. We read all the suggestions, duct tape, travel clock, shoe bag, etc etc. We made lists and checked them twice. :cool: We were sure we had packed everything we would need. The first morning at sea we are getting ready to go to breakfast, I came out of the shower and my DH is sitting on the bed, shirt on , socks on and naked from the waist down. I do one of those double takes and ask what is going on? He looks up at me and asks "How did I feel about him going commando to breakfast!?" He had forgotten all his undershorts! I could not stop laughing because I am "the blonde" in the family. It wasn't easy but we did find some boxer shorts in one of the souvenir shops in Juneau. He spent the rest of the cruise with ALASKA and a BEAR across his backside! This has become one of our favorite Alaska cruise stories within the family. I am still chuckling just thinking about it.

Uber cruiser,

I noticed you were on the Mexican Riveria in Feb. We are booked for the frist part of Feb. How was the weather? Our goal is to be out of the rainy cold winter weather in Oregon so sure hope the sun is shining then!

Patti, The Alaska cruise is wonderful, very relaxing and lots to see. There was very little movement on the ship except one nite I woke up and it was rocking but that was so soothing I just went back to sleep.

I am the planner. My DH justs lets me go for it. I already have our hotel reserved in San Diego. Now looking for airfare. Also checking out shore excursions. Any suggestions for Cabo, PV or Matzatlan? I also put all the numbers, dates etc on one piece of paper to carry with me and to give to family back home. I also took copies of our passports and credit cards and left them with our daughter just in case. To me the planning is as much fun as the trip...Well, almost!:D
