Hey Mel, I went on a cruise last year, I agree with pretty much everything Lindsey said.... Don't bring extra crap but make sure you have enough medications and stuff. I went on Royal Carribean cruise line and we had one of the biggger rooms and it was small..
The biggest rooms that they have are for handicapped ppl, the room is huge because they allow for a wheelchair.. I would call and try to get one of those rooms if you can... If not don't worry, but it is worth the idea of trying to get one.. They are double the size....
I brought my vest and nebs, which I did with the plugs next to my bed....I would sit out side on the deck off my room and do them, or do them while in bed.. I never used the bathroom outlets..
I blow dryed my hair at the little vanity desk in the room... I signed up for the drink plan for the cruise which was 50 for the whole week, My mom and I shared the cup mostly... It was so worth having... All the water I ever got was bottled..... They didn't have it as an option otherwise..
Everyone on our cruise HAD to sanitize their hands with the gel they provided before reboarding the ship and before going into any food area.. Literally they block you in and make you stand in line to get your hands clean..
If you need an O2 concentrator bring your own.. DO NOT DEPEND on the ship doctor or nurse for anything, they are compeletly useles, very expensive to visit, Most often the doctor is not american and does not have to answer to anyone for the care he or she gives..
I had the patch for the sea sickness but never used it... and I am prone to sea sick feelings....
Don't worry about snacks, everywhere you go they have so much food.. Tons and Tons and TOns..and it is all good, it is all wonderful....
Other things to consider bringing that are really expensive if you have to buy
antacid,
tums,
neosporin, bandaids.. Seriously expensive
hydrogenperoixde.. if Jazz gets water in her ear with all the swimming.. I was charged 22 dollars for use of a small bttle.
I can't think of anything else now.. But be prepard one of the big things they do on cruises is take your picture... They have usually two formal nights and then they take a million other ones in between, I ended up buying way to many and spent a fortune.....
I guess that is it....
