Last Minute Tips For A Cruise

Take it slowly

It's easy to get carried away in all the excitement preceding your cruise and overlook some details when planning your vacation. The most frequent things that people forget are related to packing. They're usually not essential things, but it can still be annoying to get up in your cabin on the first morning and find out you've forgotten your toothpaste or other similar items.

You might remember, for instance, that you need a wide-brimmed hat to protect you from sunburns, but if your mind starts dreaming of how nice it will be to stroll on the deck wearing your blue hat and how well the colour will go with that of the ocean, you might easily forget your sunglasses. At the other extreme, another mistake some people make is to pack too much. That's not very wise either, because you'll be carrying a lot of stuff with you that you might not need at all during the cruise. Here are some useful tips you might want to consider when packing.

Some things, such as a camera, an alarm clock, or a CD player are usually not forgotten. If you use your electric razor on the day of the departure, make sure you put it in your suitcase after that, and not back in its usual place. But don't forget that all these things run on batteries, so you'll need to have an extra set (or as many extra sets as you think are necessary) for each of them. A basic rule concerning batteries is that more is better than less.

Prescription medication is to be taken very seriously - yet people so often leave their medicines at home. You should have your prescription with you too - and a copy of it, if possible. If one piece of luggage gets lost, you'll appreciate the availability of a backup. An extra bottle of the medication is also advisable, in case you lose the first one. And don't forget, if you have two of them, they should go in separate bags.

You'll need more than one bathing suit, for both aesthetic and practical reasons. First, it wouldn't be very nice to be seen wearing the same suit every day, and second, it'll need time to dry after you've used it. You will have towels in the bathroom, but they will be bath-sized, so if you need large beach towels you'll need to bring your own. Also add some flip-flops, a pair of sunglasses, and sunscreen to your packing list.

In addition to film or batteries and memory cards for the camera, you might want to have a notebook with you, for writing impressions while they're fresh. Call it a log if you want, and you'll feel like a sea adventurer. The good thing about writing your impressions is that later you'll have a much more complete memory of the cruise than what you could get from pictures or video alone. If you have good writing skills, you might even turn it into a bestseller - people love cruise stories.
