I use two in one at home no problem. I also have very short hair (Charlize Theron in Mad Max short). Because of these reviews though, I'm bringing some conditioning products.

I'll be taking this cruise as well so this is great! Thank you.

Found 2 great dresses from this shop. One kaftan & one floor-length dress with loose sleeves. They're not beaded or fancy but they will pack well & I can add jewelry for sparkle.

Can't wait to wear them on the ship!

I own several slips. I find my skirts lay better with them as an underlayer. But no hose. Tights occasionally but no pantyhose. Too uncomfortable.

Your list is similar to my packing strategy. I only pack gray, black, purple, pink & orange when we travel. I wear 1 pair of jeans & boots on the plane. I pack flat sandals for formal night as well as a pair of walking shoes. Since we are coming from the US South to normally some place much cooler, we pack our coats in a checked bag. Instant space for souvenirs.

All 4 members of the family packed for 10 days in Turkey (with no laundry) in just carry-ons. It can be done & makes packing so much easier!

Has anyone used the message feature? I've read mixed reviews.

I wasn't suggesting candy as the only tip. Only in addition to cash or a calling card. I'll just go with cash & tell them I was going to bring candy but someone on message board said that was insulting or they might be diabetic so I didn't.

I'm a teacher. I occasionally get a gift that misses the mark. But insulting? Never. I'd never consider a gift, even if it was something I couldn't use, insulting.

I have to wonder how some people react when given a gift that misses the mark. I hope better than they react here.

I carry a cross body from TravelSmith. I don't see that exact one on the website anymore but I see a similar one. Lots of pockets with zippers, long flap to cover the opening and metal wire in the strap. Its a workhorse of a purse. I keep our passports in the interior zipped pocket.

We're taking a cruise this summer & its going to involve lots of walking. To further complicate matters, I like to wear skirts sometimes as well.

I'm looking for shoes that can clomp all over Northern Europe but don't look orthopedic. A closed toe & back strap (or fully closed back) will help as well. Thanks!

Hmmmm...Maybe I'll just go with some candy from Texas.

Haven't read all 99 pages so sorry if there are repeats:

-Only pack within a certain color scheme. I only pack pink, purple, orange, gray & black. They work well with each other & allows me to pack less.

-AFA shoes, I wear boots onto the plane, pack 2 pairs of comfortable walking shoes & a pair of strappy sandals for the dining room. Never had a problem.

-I have a little bag from Travelsmith that I love. It's a small purse with a fold over flap, lots of zippered pockets and the strap has a metal cord so if purse thieves try to cut & run they can't. I've carried it a lot & it's still going strong.

Approximately how many staff members are there working the teen club? I wanted to get calling cards for them & definitely don't want to be short. Thanks!

We took an Alaskan a few years ago & my kids were around the age where some meals they ordered off the kids menu, some they ordered off the adult & most nights they mixed it up.

You might be surprised at what they will try. My kids ended up loving the cold fruit soups that Princess tends to offer for every evening meal.
