Jodygirl Posted April 20, 2004 #1 Share Posted April 20, 2004 I was planning on bringing capris and shorts along for the most part. Do I need a pair of jeans for night? Didn't know if it really got that cool or not. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. Jody in KS Until our first cruise on the Sensation! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Lois R Posted April 20, 2004 #2 Share Posted April 20, 2004 Hi I never bring jeans with me..even if it is cool in the evenings (in the Caribbean most of the year it stays warm)..but even if it cools off...I usually stay dressed in my dinner clothes throughout the entire evening. I leave the jeans home for a cruise..but that is just me. Have a wonderful time. Next up...HORIZON Sept 18th to Bermuda!

zimmerjulie Posted April 20, 2004 #3 Share Posted April 20, 2004 Nope, You don't need a pair of jeans for night. It will be warm in the Caribbean and jeans are often frowned upon as evening wear and not allowed in dining rooms at night. Save your suitcase space for something else . It can get cool at night due to powerful shipboard A/C, so if you get chilly easily, you might want to bring a nice sweater, shoulder cover, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigtim10 Posted April 21, 2004 #4 Share Posted April 21, 2004 I would say bring some kind of long pants and a sweater. I stayed cold at night last week on the Inspiration. Tina Inspiration 4/11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lszu Posted April 21, 2004 #5 Share Posted April 21, 2004 Nope! Not unless you really, really want them. Saw some people walking around in jeans at night on the Adventure last year, but not many. lszu Sovereign 7/99 Monarch 7/00 Vision 9/01 Voyager 9/02 Adventure 9/03 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
natndon Posted April 21, 2004 #6 Share Posted April 21, 2004 If you do decide to bring a pair, make sure they are a size bigger than you wore when you boarded ship!!! ESPECIALLY if you plan on maybe wearing them home!!!!!!!!!!!!! Think ELASTIC WAIST !!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrqoisWtrs Posted April 21, 2004 #7 Share Posted April 21, 2004 You might want jeans depending on any excursions you might take. I throw a pair in if I know I'm going to be horseback riding. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Life is too short to drink cheap wine. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Premier Royale 1985 CCL Holiday 09/89 CCL Tropicale 09/94 CCL Fantasy 02/98 RCCL Sovereign of the Seas 06/01 CCL Fascination 08/02 CCL Imagination 01/03 RCCL Sovereign of the Seas 07/03 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

texansharon Posted April 21, 2004 #9 Share Posted April 21, 2004 I always throw in a pair of jeans and always end up wearing them in some capacity or another (not dinner!!)...The temperature on the ships can be very cool...I have been known to wear them during the day especially if it's raining...

Jodygirl Posted April 26, 2004 Author #10 Share Posted April 26, 2004 Thanks. By evening, I meant after dinner if we are just hanging out. I think I will leave them at home and bring a light sweater as an alternative to jeans. Thanks for the replies. Jody in KS Until our first cruise on the Sensation!

JanetMarie Posted April 26, 2004 #11 Share Posted April 26, 2004 No! No jeans! The weather in the Caribbean is beautiful and warm year-round. I don't recall seeing more than a handful of people in jeans, and that was probably on embarkation night. You'll look and feel more comfortable in your dinner outfits! OUR NEXT ONWARD JOURNEY!

Mariposa Posted April 27, 2004 #12 Share Posted April 27, 2004 I wouldn't take jeans cuz if it does happen to rain (light and quick showers maybe) the jeans take forever to dry. A better option would be some of the pretty cotton cargo pants that would dry quickly. Plus it is very humid, so cotton is the best all round choice of day time wear anyway cuz it breaths. On my Caribbean cruise I loved wandering the decks late at night. It was NOT cold, but sometimes it sure got windy. SOOOO, I went back to my cabin and pulled out my cute sweat pants and wore those outside. It was dark, and I was very cozy and comfortable. I just threw on a long sleeved shirt over my tank top and that was plenty warm for me. This was often my very early morning stroll or "run to the Lido deck" outfit to see what yummy snack I could find before breakfast when I was awake waay too early.

mecagirl Posted April 29, 2004 #13 Share Posted April 29, 2004 Mariposa - Jeans are cotton... Jeans will breathe. That's why so many people wear them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
