kapcruiser Posted August 6, 2004 #1 Share Posted August 6, 2004 Only 2 days to go - these boards have been a life saver. On inspiration. Anything else I should know - I have been taking notes on all the good tips. I remember to get lanyards from casino ( punch holes in card), playing cards from pursers, dramamine somewhere, go to tea time and shop talk, self disembarkment if possible,bring water, soda, travel mug, night light, power strip. Anything else??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dolfinmusic Posted August 6, 2004 #2 Share Posted August 6, 2004 Just have a great time!!!!! Enjoy this time too - last year at this time I too was planning for my first cruise in October - I would give anything (well almost anything) to go back and do it again!!! Once you get on that ship - you will have to pinch yourself to make sure that you are really there!!!! Enjoy!!!! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Tom-n-Cheryl Posted August 6, 2004 #3 Share Posted August 6, 2004 Have a great time! Good luck with the pursers desk, on the last couple of cruises I was on, they had stopped giving out the free playing cards, and were instead directing people to the casino, where you could buy USED cards...! We also take a small fan (10" ?) - mostly for the sound! Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare finoky Posted August 6, 2004 #4 Share Posted August 6, 2004 Tom the same thing happened to me on the Legend. I went to the pursers desk to add to my collection and was told I could buy some in the casino. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Tom-n-Cheryl Posted August 6, 2004 #5 Share Posted August 6, 2004 Seems that is really "nickel and diming"... oh well... I guess it all adds up! Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
betsyrossapk Posted August 6, 2004 #6 Share Posted August 6, 2004 90 days & counting until we go on the Inspiration. Here's hoping you have a wonderful trip. Looking forward to your review when you return. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iluvdoxies Posted August 6, 2004 #7 Share Posted August 6, 2004 Have a great time! We also take an alarm clock, like a baby ben. Much easier to see what time it is when you wake up and it's still dark..also use it to set alarm for port days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cotton Posted August 6, 2004 #10 Share Posted August 6, 2004 Ziplok bags, all sizes - the 2-gal. size is great for wet swimming suits. You won't believe how they come in handy. About the cards, I got a comp. deck from the purser's desk last cruise - and my cabin steward got me a deck on the cruise before that. Just ask. Bon Voyage!
