Sammy* Posted January 15, 2005 #1 Share Posted January 15, 2005 Cruise newbie here and was wondering if any of you carry a bag or tote to the pools with you?? Also, are we supposed to bring towels from the rooms or are they provided in the pool area? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boo's Mom Posted January 15, 2005 #2 Share Posted January 15, 2005 Sammy* ~ The towels (beach towels) will be at the pool. (Celebrity, Princess, Carnival...anyway) Yes, I bring a little tote/beach bag to the pool. I keep my key card in there....sun lotion, book, daily schedule, glasses, etc...

waterbound Posted January 15, 2005 #3 Share Posted January 15, 2005 I also bring a tote to the pool or even when I just go to sit up and sun.. I put my card in it, drink coupons, suntan lotion, puzzle book, pen, walkman and a small cd case.. and of course a camera.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shifra Posted January 15, 2005 #4 Share Posted January 15, 2005 I also always bring a tote to carry my incidentals, and you will also need a cover-up. There will be plenty of towels poolside except on Princess. They do it differently. You get beach towels in your cabin, no towels by the pool. Reasoning is: there will be less saving of pool chairs. Have a great cruise! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ckrobyn Posted January 18, 2005 #7 Share Posted January 18, 2005 I got a really cool beach bag for the pool as a gift this year for my first cruise, I've already stocked it with a novel, sunglasses, suntan lotion and a lanyard for my sea pass.....:rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
immargaret Posted January 18, 2005 #8 Share Posted January 18, 2005 I also have my highlighter marker in my beach tote so I can highlight the events I want to attend on the cruise daily newsletter. I also have a cheap plastic watch that I attach to the strap of the beach tote so I always know what time it is and I don't miss some important event.

motherchic Posted January 20, 2005 #9 Share Posted January 20, 2005 i always brought a tote and you certainly can but on Celebrity they have complimentary tote bags in the room. Its fine for me and saves me room in my suitcase and that way it at least gets used. I always bring them home, smile when I see them and then never use them again. The tip about the watch and highlighter are good ones. Bring a little makeup bag to put in your tote, just to fill with miscellaneous. So ask on the cruise line boards weather your cruise line offers free tote bags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
