Here are my top ten packing tips:
1. Buy your Euro's at Marlin Travel (www.marlintravel.ca) or pick up your CashPax in person - CashPax are so easy!
2. Bring some USD's - on board the ship there is plenty to buy (of course you can purchase them at Marlin Travel)
3. Pack your passport and money in a money holder - never in your suitcase!
4. Luggage tags should sport your work address, never your home address - thieves can easily rip off your luggage tag at the airport...and if they know you're on a trip...they may make a visit to your home and help themselves to your valuables.
5. Leave a copy of your itinerary with work colleague as well as with a family member
6. call your cellphone provider to make sure you will have connection in Europe (this will be less expensive then calling ship to shore)
7. Change your voice mail and out of office message so that your customers know that you are CRUISING the MED on the Voyager of the Seas and to follow our blog at memoriesofmed2009.blogspot.com
8. Purchase insurance - never leave home without additional coverage
9. Pack a change of clothes along with a small tube of toothpaste and your toothbrush...you may not see your luggage until closer to dinner time....you'll want to freshen up before you head out to Barcelona
10. Hug your kids and your loved ones....tell them you'll miss them....and that you'll try to have fun without them next week..... :)
