Saving pool seats with towels

[FergusBC]

On one of our cruises there was a group of us setting by the pool having coffee about 7:00 am. Two women came by and left towels and bags and books on about 10 chairs by the pool and left. About 7:30 am when we started breaking up one of the older men in the group walked over and starting collecting all the towels and items left. When we asked him what he was doing, he told us he was taking the items to Lost And Found. He said the items must be lost because they were just setting there and no one was around. He knew someone would not just leave their things laying around unattended on the pool deck for that amount of time. I wish I had that nerve

I so want to cruise with this guy! I think he's my new hero

I haven't done it, but I have seen it done a lot and I think it's a great solution

There was a travel magazine article where two girls at an All Inclusive admitted to going down to the pool area at around 2 in the morning, taking ALL the stuff off the chairs and piling it up with a sign saying "lost and found" Apparently at this resort people were claiming chairs before bed for the next day!
