What is the one most important thing you bring on a cruise?

What is that one thing you would not go on a cruise without? And it can't be a person! What is it? Your coffee pot, FRS radios, bungee cord (for the Dawg), favorite towel, what?

Sorry, I can't narrow it down. My pillows, my coffee, and my eyelash curler with mascara. My pillows, because I can't sleep without them. My coffee (I get from Germany). My eyelash curler and mascara because I'm blond, and get asked if I'm sick if I don't wear mascara.

Suntan Lotion because the sun is so intense on the sun decks and there's always something going on out there. (just people watching is fun) and then the Aloe Vera Lotion (because I spent too much time out in the sun) icon_cool.gif

A twin size flat bedsheet from home (rolls up small to fit in a beachbag). Sand shakes off & it dries quickly hung over a shower rod or on a balconey. No need to hunt for a beach chair or an extra towel from the ship. I also bring my attitude (don't care what anyone else does or wears onboard icon_biggrin.gif...life is short).

 

 

 

Celebrating 30th cruise soon....

Your own supply of liquor and mixers...who can afford the ships drinks at $4-6 a drink! And a small backpack type bag for carrying your ID, s&s card, and credit card & cash and sunscreen & sunglasses to the beach! Also a big bottle of water!
