Wennfred Posted July 11, 2007 #8 Share Posted July 11, 2007 What about the extension cord and duct tape? Anything else? Yes, the Duct tape to fix your broken luggage after you get it back from the porters and the extension cord with a power strip so you can plug more things to it. Bring a Black Sharpie pen also. Imodium AD and Travel size Tide and Downy softener to wash. Travel size Solarcaine spray. Fred Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howdy777 Posted July 11, 2007 #10 Share Posted July 11, 2007 Whatever you do don't forget the cloths pins. This was one of the best tips we got. Go to walmart and buy a bag of cloths pins ($.97) for your shower curtain. Attach the clothes pins on the bottom of the shower curtain to keep from flooding the bathroom floor. The lip is not high enough in the shower to keep the water from getting on the floor when the shower curtain blows out. Unless you want a flooded floor everytime you take a shower, take the cloths pins. Also buy a cheap plastic shoe rack that you can hang on the back of the bathroom door to store alot of things that normally clutter up the desktop and also the countertop in the bathroom.

I've never needed them on the sensation, the liberty, or the miracle. Apparently I'm not doing the things in the shower some of you must be doing ;) lol lol lol lol !

These work well for a lot of people, but personally, I prefer medium or large-size black binder clips -- they work for the shower curtain, and are also big and strong enough to secure your towel to your lounge chair so it doesn't blow away -- a particular concern if you have a balcony. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osiebosie Posted July 11, 2007 #16 Share Posted July 11, 2007 We ALWAYS bring our binoculars. It's so fun to watch from the ship. Also, the GPS, if you have one, is fun, too. Clothes steamer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sjohnson529 Posted July 11, 2007 #19 Share Posted July 11, 2007 My must haves are zip lock bags (you'd be surprised how much you use them), the over the door shoe thingy for the bathroom, money, and DH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PoopDeckPappy Posted July 11, 2007 #24 Share Posted July 11, 2007 Koozies (foam beer can holders). They're not just for beer cans, they also hold soda cans and certain glassware. Great way to keep your drinks cold while on deck, wouldn't cruise w/o them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leo Jay Posted July 11, 2007 #25 Share Posted July 11, 2007 Hangers -- I find those built-in modular hangers inconvenient. :) Antibacterial Wipes -- good for general cleanup. Ziplock bags/Tinfoil (folded pre-cut sheets) -- good for storing room service food or specialty bar food you can't finish right away. Ziplocks also good to store your wet bathing suit in your bag if you change after the beach. 'Charmin To Go' -- some of the more rustic beaches and port locations are inadequately supplied.
