Hello all!!!!!!!!!
Oh yeah very psyched that at this time next Friday I will be on the plane!!! I will need to do some more digging through my clothes. Some of the clothes I brought on my last cruise are to big now, not a BAD thing! I can't justify going out and buying anything more new though. We don't have that much more summer here this year and hopefully they wouldn't fit me next year!
Another reason is we finally heard that my sister-in-law and family have been rescued out of NO. We will need to send money to them as they have nothing but the clothes they had on their back when they left. So very sad but so very happy they are alive and well

, with 3 more kids and 4 cats but that is another story for another day LOL
For those who are worried about credit cards and travelers checks... I have been to the Western Caribbean 9 times and never once have had any issues whatsoever with my credit cards, no matter the amount. Now travelers checks on the other hand... are a pain in the butt!!!!!!! Some places don't like to take them or won't if it's a little place. Others charge you to change them from travelers check to cash and then a charge to change it from Dollars to Pasos even though everywhere takes dollars, it's just a scam. Bring your credit card and/or debit card and use that, you ar much better off. With them you also don't have the fear of losing the cash and the card can be replaced. Some cash is always good to buy a coke or little things but not major $$$$
Mannnnnn is everyone going to Palo?????? I wanna goooooooooo
<looking my travel coordinator FLTink's way>
Now on the shoes issue... ok I can't help there. If I could wear my sneakers everywhere I go I would. Then to decide what I will take with me... it all depends on if it goes with the one pair of shoes I am willing to take LOL This year however... as FLTink says... just say yes to flip flops! I HATE over packing! I go through my clothes like this.... ok this shirt will go with those shorts... one day... this with that... two days... and so on. I bring one extra set of clothes and such just in case of spillage of some sort. Once I count out the appropriate number of days... and being sure there are FAT CLOTHES for the end... I'm done.
As yes... a seasoned cruiser I am.... arggggggggggghhh <practicing my

as I would like to be certified in pirate as a second language before I leave. I hear Disney likes to hire bi-linguests.
Shiver me timbers!
you scurvey dog!
Hey matey!
<don't be a hater>
