Three more work days. So much to do both at work and preparing for the cruise. For those who have not traveled before, here is a list of some of the things that need to be done:
passports (and photocopy of same in case it gets lost or stolen)
itinerary for us (so we know where the heck we're supposed to go)
itinerary for friends & family (in case of emergency)
addresses & phone numbers (for postcards we'll send)
emergency phone numbers (banks, credit cards, family)
cell phones - international roaming turned on
clothes (how am I supposed to pack light for a cruise with formal, informal, and casual nights?)
toiletries - just enough to last for the trip
electronics - camcorder or not (yes); big camera (no); small point & shoot camera (yes); mp3 player & tunes (yes); spare batteries, rechargers, laptop (so I can update the blog, and do email); headphones (noise cancelling)
eyeshades, extra socks to wear on the plane
books to read (as if I'll be bored)
do the yardwork, make sure all plants have temporary homes, and the garden gets watered daily (the tomato plants are already at the top of their cages)
arrange for newspaper pickup and mail delivery
make sure upcoming bills are paid in advance
and the beat goes on... (sorry, that dates me)
