Buying/Making postcards before the cruise

[ms simba]

Any suggestions of how to buy postcards prior to the cruise I am going on (Dec 08 to Grand Cayman and Cozumel). I want to put my address labels and messages on before I go as I write MANY postcards. I do not want to spend my time on the ship writing postcards as it usually takes me about 2 hours or more to do my postcards. I want to have my postcards ready way before I get to port.

 

When I go to Disney, I make my postcards by hand or use the ones I bought there on my last trip. I usually type the generic saying "Having a great time, blah, blah, blah" Then I write a personal note about the trip below.

 

If you don't know where I could buy postcards beforehand, maybe you could post some of the postcards you have of Cozumel or the Grand Caymans or email me some scans of these postcards.

I understand your wanting to be prepared, I thought about doing the same thing you did. What I found is that I preferred to wait till after we'd been at a port so I could buy postcards that looked like places we'd actually been. For instance I saw post cards of white sandy beaches in Grand Cayman, but that's not what we did there. I settled for simply bringing preprinted address labels, then scribbled a quick "Wish you were here!" before sending.

The few we sent were only recently received and we've been home for 3 weeks! I am glad I kept most of the post cards we bought for myself.
