More little things…

More little things
My sister got me some soft, warm, fuzzy socks for my birthday.
I have many “slipper socks” in my warm and fuzzy drawer, but these just seems so much fuzzier and softer.
It puts a nice little smile on my face when i slip these little wonders on!
Things I learned about cruises on this trip!
- Don’t leave out of New Orleans – the trip down the river to get to the ocean is LONG
- Check is there are large groups on your cruise, and what kind – We had a group of 700 that were obnoxious drunks – the boat ran out of bud light by the first port. They also took over at least 1 location on the boat for a private party each night.
- Bring a case or 2 of bottle water – we saw people “checking” cases of water and were jealous – makes it easier to transport on land etc.
- Do no go to your room early – it pisses off your steward and your service is affected.
- Do no pack early, you miss out on your last towel animal, wait till they put up the packing sheet.
- Bring a small oust or stink cover uper – our restroom was not pretty by the end – due to a smell coming from the toilet. Aka, everyone elses deposits were backing up. Ick. (I always bring one, so we were covered)
- The first day of the cruise everyone works out, then it tapers off
- Be careful in the hot tubs – go in early – notice that some people never leave but continue to drink. Therefore that alcohol has to end up somewhere… Ewww… Luckily the pools and hot tubs are emptied every night!
- If you can, watch the life boat drill – very cool
- Make a plan for each port if you wont be taking a tour
- Most tours are a waste of money, but keep your from having to deal with locals that might rip you off!
- They allow you to initially get on the boat with a container of water, but they will open it and sniff it. – weird, but ok!
- I think I can do without going on another cruise for a while!
