Bottom Line Must Haves on any Cruise

[MtnBikerFallDown]

In the days when we checked a large pullman suitcase, we took one of those collapsible hampers, a large one, for a self-drive vacay in New Zealand. It was very handy for keeping the back seat tidy! However, when the suitcase was first open, it SPRANG out like a jack-in-the-box and nearly stopped my heart!

 

I read this last night and laughed so hard I scared my DH. And, several times today I have thought about it and had a good chuckle. I just had to let you know how much amusement this provided me. Good one!

why all the paper binder recommendations for documents easily scanned and stored as PDFs in IBooks (or the android equivalent) and downloadable maps, neither of which need the internet?

 

For me, it's because I have to put my glasses on to read stuff scanned into my phone - so much easier to have it printed in large print so I don't have to fool with glasses just to read directions to parking or the hotel. :rolleyes:

Bring several $$ if you plan to use room service and tip. Since no cash is exchanged onboard, we found we didn't have small bills for tipping. We bring many and keep them right in the top drawer so we know right where they are when our food is delivered.

 

What cruise line were you on that wouldn't exchange cash??? We have always been able to exchange a twenty for smaller denominations, including plenty of ones, at either the front desk or the casino cashier.
