Amusing packing list anecdote

[moinab]

I've been working on my packing list. This morning, while sitting at the table with DH, I was thinking about not wanting to do any ironing on board, and I commented that we need to get wrinkle remover. DH looked offended, and said, "For me?" Somewhat confused, I said, "Well, for all of us. It will be difficult to iron on the ship..." He then burst out laughing. He thought I meant for his face.

That is too funny. I took some of that wrinkle remover with me and it worked GREAT. I'm not sure i will ever pack a travel iron for vacation again.

Have a wonderful time.

Did you use a particular brand, or is it all pretty much the same? I've never used it before. Heaven knows, I hate ironing.

And how well does it work under your eyes? (LOL)

I've used a couple of different name brands (Downey, Febreeze)
and they work great!!

On my last cruise I bought the dollar store version and it worked just o.k. The fragrance was o.k. at first, but by the end of the week was really too strong. I would suggest spending a couple of extra bucks for Downey.


Hope this helps.

Do they have irons on the cruise that you can use? I hate to iron as well, but was wondering just in case my clothes still looks wrinkled. Joni

Hmmmmmmmm, I wonder if it would work around the eyes.

It is my understanding that there are irons, but they can only be used in the laundry rooms. No ironing allowed in staterooms.

OK, Im new at this. You mean, you cant bring one of those little travel irons? How will I live without it? I iron everything!

Just got my docs and they state,

"There are self-service Guest Laundry Rooms located on Decks 2, 6 and 7, with coin-operated washers, dryers, and detergent available for a nominal fee. Complimentary ironing equipment is also available."

"For safety reasons, irons or steamers may be used in the laundry rooms only. Refer to your ship map for specific locations."

Full service laundry is also available.

So, you can iron if you really want to, but you just have to do it in the laundry room.
