My packing list

[colorcrazie]

We're starting to get ready for our next cruise, so I pulled up a packing list that I did years ago. This does NOT address what clothing to bring, except in general terms. That is because I never forget to take clothes, but sometimes will forget something else.
I organized this by what goes where and also by how I pack. Some things are only relevant when we first fly to cruise terminal, others if we drive, etc. But, I've found that unpacking once we get on board is easiest if I put related items in clear travel packs that can just be put where they are most accessible. I also separate items that we hope not to need, such as cold remedies and dental repair kit. Have had to use everything here at least once in 35 cruises, and the ships charge too much and carry too small an assortment for me.

Shampoo (I have to use a medicated one)
Shaving cream, razor, aftershave

WOW! Not THAT's a list. I'm copying this one if you don't mind.

by baggies do you mean Ziplocs. Have you ever needed bug spray

Carolin,
I told you I always forget something!! Yes, bug spray is always in my port bag, which I probably should have repeated here.
But, by all means, copy my list if you like...and do add anything I forgot or didn't hink of.
Yes, baggies are ziplocks. I use various sizes for: taking bread (when allowed) to feed the fishies, adding extra waterproofing when using my dive purse, separating wet/damp items when packing to go home, and probably 16 other things that I am forgetting!

Thanks for sharing! I don't have one and this is a great place to start.

Okay, let's leave the task of merging your list with my list as an exercise for the reader.... ;-)

I like your list Norm I guess if your short on luggage space, better hope you can wear thongs

I did remember one more thing.

Feminine products for ladies just in case.

Norm - I just might have to attempt that. HAHAHA
