I just stumbled across this thread : ) Love it!! I will be bringing my beloved Theo with me on my cruise. I want a pic of him with the stingrays in Grand Cayman.

After I posted the question of the Flat Stanley project, I scrolled down and saw others had already mentioned it. As for bringing kids while traveling: This will be my 1st vacay without kids....I look fwd to going with my classmates/friends, but will miss seeing things thru kids' eyes. BUT, my roomie has never been on a cruise, so it will be kinda like bringing a kid : )

Anyone familiar with the Flat Stanley project?

Let me explain the stuffed animal thing...you either get it or you don't.

 

In our case, our son was in Afghanistan with the Marine Corps, and we found a stuffed dog dressed in cammies as a Marine, and decided that since our son could not be with us, we would take the puppy along and send him funny pictures of the puppy in different situations.

 

It makes for a great laugh, and it's fun to think up funny situations to put the puppy in. We ended up at a Marine Corps museum once and we placed the puppy in a scene of Marines storming the beach; he blended right in and it looked like he was in the war too. We also have taken pictures of him peeing on a bush, chilling out with the towel animals, and so on.

 

It's fun for us and funny for him...honestly some of the best times we have had were laughing about the hilarious photo we just took - one of my favs is the one of the puppy smoking and drinking at a Toby Keith concert!

My post up next : )

The price depends on the length of the cruise. I've also found how cost effective it is for me depends on how many sea days there are. 2 sea days, it doesn't really make it worth it for me. 3 sea days I come out ahead. Do a search for "soda cards" here, the price ranges will pop up. The only price I'm familiar with is for a 7 day sailing, it runs about $45 for adults.

Thanks for the help.

Can someone please tell me how much these cost? & how much if I buy soda by the glass. Do they give you a whole can? I basically only drink soda at dinner & need to know which is the cheaper option. Thanks!!!
