On past cruises, I made albums for each cabin in our group. A Scrapbook page with port information, next would be a large zip lock bag for that page. The book would contain a page and a bag for each port. You can slip in receipts, flyers, etc. from each port! I would use skewers to make the spline and sew all the pages and baggies together before binding it all together. Everyone has loved them, helps keep that pile of papers off the desk, and we can actually find something if we need it! Great for keeping all thos photos and postcards together too.

I love to decorate our door. Last year we sailed on Halloween...I was the only one on our Floor :( with decorations. But we like it and easily found our cabin each night. On Hal I fasten my decorations to the mailbox. I bring the little electrical ties and cut them off at the end of the cruise.

Remember if you have a room overlooking the courtyard on Freedom of the Sea, bring something to decorate the window too! On our Christmas cruise aboard the Freedom, I had battery operated christmas lights, Christmas Stockings and yes, that was us...my Husband put our towel animals in the window each night...the crew, and other passengers checked out our window every day to see what was going on! It was a lot of Fun...my grandchildren weren't even embarrased! They thought it was "cool" wishing they had an inside room instead of the balcony!

Have fun, where ever you cruise!

We had a new "window scape" each day... The crew and passengers looked up each day to see what we had instore for them...

We used the "towel" critters, sunglasses, Tea shirts...it was fun.. Our grandchildren loved it too!
