callmedeb Posted March 5, 2018 #76 Share Posted March 5, 2018 Me thinks you are going to be doing nightly hand washing. It's a cruise - not a land vacation. Why limit yourself to a carry on? To each their own, lol. I've travelled in europe on public transit with just a backpack for a month, so having the room in a carry-on seems like a luxury. Plus I don't wear much make-up beyond mascara and lipstick, which should be changed out frequently anyway =) No need for handwashing at all, there's plenty in the bag for the week. Two week... I'd be sending things out / washing. Cheers, Deb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iancal Posted March 6, 2018 #77 Share Posted March 6, 2018 There are many people like us who almost always combine a cruise with land travel. The land travel is invariably of a much longer duration than the cruise travel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nana51 Posted March 6, 2018 #78 Share Posted March 6, 2018 Really? I was thinking that was a lot! :') Me too. 10 yo 12 pair of underwear for 7 days but only 2 bras? Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare albingirl Posted March 6, 2018 #79 Share Posted March 6, 2018 It seems we are just taking long cruises now. I pack some clothing that I will ditch along the way to make room in my one suitcase for a few items I purchase along the way. We travel lightly and only with clothing we are sure to wear. No extras, no decorations, no books except for kindles, and no clutter to junk up the stateroom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
summersigh Posted March 6, 2018 #80 Share Posted March 6, 2018 Shoes :D I take one pair of tennis shoes for excursions, one pair of light black strappy sandals for evenings and one pair of Clarks sandles that can also double as slippers for hanging out. DH does the same except he takes loafers for evenings and "rainbows" for hanging out/slippers. Don't need different shoes to match every different outfit - for me I only shop for evening clothes that will go with the black strappy sandals.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
