Question Of The Day[/size]

What is one of the coolest things you have bought on one of your excursions or from a port of call?[/size]

we got some fabulous black truffle infused olive oil in France.... that was a great find..(at least for me)..

Two bottles of Creme of Grand Marnier in Fare, Huahine. You can only buy this in France, but because they were a French territory, we were able to find it in a local grocery store. The clerk looked at us as if we'd lost our senses. Chris hand carried those bottle for the entire trip. That was in 2004 and we are nearly out now. so he wants to go back, just so that he can buy some more.

Question of the day[/size]

How many pieces of luggage do you take on a cruise with you ?

and

what size [/size] ?

I usually take a very large suitcase, in which I carry another collapsible bag for all the things we undoubtedly buy. I also have a smaller suitcase that has nothing but shoes in it, as I will take anywhere between 10 and 20 pairs (yes, I am a shoe-aholic). Then I have a carry-on that I carry my laptop, meds, cell phone charger, etc. in. Formal wear goes in hubby's garment bag.

Unfortuneately, my son informed me just about 30 minutes ago that the company he works for owns shoebuy.com and he gave me a code to get 25% off - I just bought 3 pairs - all formal evening shoes - for the cruise. Yes, I know there is only 2 formal nights, but I just couldn't make up my mind!!! I say unfortuneately because I have a feeling I will be giving them a lot of my money, all under the guise of saving money...

Your son is single isnt he? .. If he was married he would never give a discount coupon to any woman for a shoe company...lol

Yes, he is single - I can't figure out why as he is quite a catch. I thought he would soon be announcing that he proposed to his girlfriend but now he says he thinks he is about ready to call it quits with her. I imagine I am somewhat to blame for that - I waited on them hand and foot and now they can't find a woman willing to do that. If there are any available women out there, here is a pic of him with one of my dogs....
