Laundry question!

[clh2]

We are doing a couple of days at the parks prior to embarking. Will be traveling with 3 grandsons, and 4 adults. If we packed carryons to hold a load or two of dirty laundry…can laundry be started as soon as we are able to go to our rooms?

I think it's open 24 hours, so you should be able to start laundry as soon as you get to the room.

Have you considered doing laundry at the resort instead? The washers and dryers at the resorts are larger and easier IMO to use.

Good things to consider. But…our 2 year old grandson will probably need a nap after we get on the ship, and once we are free to be in our rooms. The laundry area is right down the hall from our rooms. So, keeping an eye on laundry and a sleeping baby, seems like an easy multi-tasking opportunity!

Should be able to. And few people are using them at that time, in my experience.

Don’t forget you have to do the “muster drill” between getting into your cabin and the ship leaving the dock.

Something to keep in mind is if the laundry is in your checked luggage, it might not be delivered until 8pm. We have had deliveries as late as midnight (the bag went missing). It is not unusual for bags to not be there until after Muster Drill at 4pm and commonly after first seating dinner. I would not plan on a checked bag being there before Muster.

Definitely the plan for that would be put that in the carryons!

Sounds easy... but how active is the 2-yr-old and would he be upset if you were down the hall when he wakes in a strange place alone? Will he nap in a pack-n-play or on the bed? Those are things I would consider; there is plenty of time to get laundry done with 4 adults, I would not leave a sleeping 2-yr-old completely unattended that first afternoon even to go down the hall.
