I just bought something called "Hips Sister" to try next cruise. It slides on to look like like a layered shirt or something. It will only hold a few small things, but should be plenty.

Wife and I "invested" $40 in this fun machine..

 

 

 

..and never got a soda in thanks

but then we weren't gambling with a view to Free Drinks...

 

 

Any second now there'll be a huge cascade, which will pay for our next cruise - Yessss!

Those are my favorite machines and I did not know they had them on the cruise ships, guess I will have to go to the casino this time.:D

But 88 percent will claim they won money

HaHa!! This is so funny, but so true!

As far as calling the ship a boat, we always call it a boat and rarely say ship. Yes I know it is a ship, but from our first cruise when my son was 2, he called it a boat and it stuck. So it may be wrong, it is definitely sentimental and surely silly, but we call the ship a boat. :) I rarely pay attention to what other people call it.

I don't like chair hogs, people that make me wait unecessarily or people that are impatient or inconsiderate. But what really pisses me off is when people are rude to the staff. Just because we are on vacation, doesn't mean we have the right to treat "the staff" or other passengers poorly.

Speaking of clothes, does anyone bring something to launder clothes with? I was at the store and saw a box of laundry "sheets" for like $8 for 24 (obviously too many) or a small bottle of purex for $1.99 on sale. The problem with the purex was that it was much heavier. (I am concerned about suitcase weight) Has anyone seen other products?

I use those sheets at home for the laundry all of the time, that way I don't have to keep the big bulky liquid thing. Target is now selling a value pack of them too. You could easily slide a couple of them in a ziploc bag. I LOVE using those! I will take them on the next Carnival trip, but I thought NCL did away with the laundry rooms.

If you are packing for a week, how much clothing do you pack?

Do you "recycle" pants or skirts for dinners?

Even on our 4 & 5 day, it seems like I over pack clothing?
