What do you pack?

Just curious to see what all everyone packs. Not limited to clothes and shoes either.

Tammy please remember in November I have two staterooms. If you start to feel that your life is in danger let me know and you can bunk in with the little brats of mine. :grin: Nah only E is the brat. But I am sure you would love him. He can be rather charming to other people.

I guess I had better be careful because Jeff has always told me when I turn 40 he is trading me in for 2 20 year olds. I have 3 more years to go.

Always pack one of those electrical power strips where you can plug in more than one appliance at a time. Most of these ships offer you ONE electrical plug.

We have a hair dryer, curling iron, electric toothbrush, shaver, etc., etc., etc.

Interesting Sue.

You know alot of times an electrical plug is behind the tv or something. I have never taken one but alot of people do.

An over-the-door shoe holder. Picked ours up at Dollar Tree a couple of years ago, and they're so great for holding bottles of suntan lotion, and sunglasses, and all the stuff that generally clutters up what little space there is in the staterooms. :)

Gina,

Been hearing about the shoe bag hanger for years on various cruise sites but have never tried it. Maybe this cruise will be the time go give it a shot. :wink:

I always pack my swiss army knife and never fail to use it several times on every cruise. Also pack my binoculars, seldom use them, but they are great when you need them. I also pack a sleep mask. I like the room dark! And, most staterooms are not even close. Used to put towels down to block the light coming under the doors, etc. Now, I just put on the mask and forget all that other stuff, and I always pack ear plugs just in case. They have come in handy a couple of times. :smiley:

Oh but I was just curious to see what everyone packs. It is very interesting to see exactly what people pack and why.

I have taken the over the door shoe holder. It came in extremely handy on our 7 day cruise when we had the kids in our room. No space. I hate clutter and our room was horrible.
