ME! I promise I won't take up too much room in your suitcase.

Ziploc bags and over the door shoe holder?

 

[NYDisneyMom]

travel clock
dramamine
LOTS of sunscreen (especially for the little ones)
small bills for tipping room service

That's all I can think of right now.

You beat me to the punch! Great minds think alike, right? Must be the name...

Anyway to the question, did you remember sunscreen and hats??

Have a great trip!!!

 

[rsjj]

yes, zip lock bags!!!! thank you! now remind me, what would you need the shoe holder thing for again?

as for you, i'd love to take you... but i have to decide after i pack...you know, i might not have enough room, with all the stuff i'll need...but you did mention that you won't take up much room...so we'll see. hee hee...

 

[rsjj]

wow, didn't realize i'd get so much response so quick! good, good, keep them coming!

denise5374...yes, i do have the hats. even got those clip thing (for baby pacifiers) that i can clip one end to the hat & the other end onto the boys shirt collar, or someplace, so the hats won't get "blown" away, should there be wind.

Passports/birth certificates/marriage licenses/drivers licenses - whatever you chose to use and if you chose to take certificates do you have THOSE in ziplock or protective covering?

autograph book and pen, clothespins to hold the curtains shut, wrinkle eliminator spray, laundry tablets/dryer sheets, water shoes, fanny pack/shore bag, bubbles for sailaway party, camera, two way radios, cruise documents.......and a great big smile because you're almost on your cruise! Bon Voyage!

 

[Billinaz]

Hey, it was worth a try! The over the door shoe holder is to help organize the bathroom and/or to hang on the inside of your stateroom for sunscreen, cameras, etc. etc. It just helps to keep everything from cluttering up the stateroom.

Lysol! I saw that on one of the boards and that is a great idea for the lifevests as well as around the room. I'm definately taking that with us.

How about a night light for the bathroom...

I am packing this weekend, also. The cruise is almost here!!
Sounds like you have about everything covered. Hmmm...
what about a second photo ID: I read on here about a lady whose lanyard broke and she lost her id. The husband was able to go onboard and get her extra ID so that she could board. --What about a waterproof carrier for when you are snorkeling,etc. Waterproof camera.-- I like the sunblock (I got the one for the face) with a clasp-can go on a rope, backpack, waistband etc. Don't forget room or extra bag for souveniers. --Remember to bring any addresses/preprinted address labels for sending postcards to others from ports. - - Pillowcases if you are going to have them signed for the kids. -- Seabands/meds --PEPTOBISMAL CHEWABLES--$1 bills for tips--swim diapers--wash their tshirts in that rid sunprotection--chapstick--Lt sweater for cool nights/dinning room--film film film
OMG...I may have overpacked a bit..lol

See ya sailing soon !

[rsjj]

i knew i can count on you all!!!!!! thanx for all the wonderful ideas. some i've got, some i've forgot...so it was nice to read it all again here!

When we went on our cruise, I regreted not bringing an alarm clock - we had no window and I hated not knowing what time it was if I woke up in the middle of the night, and you can't tell with out a window what time it is! Have fun!!
