Just in Case......

Trip · #1 (**permalink**) June 29th, 2006, 10:05 AM

I have decided before my next cruise to gather together, some things to have in case of emergancy, fashion, or otherwise. Sometimes the simplest things you need, seem the hardest to find on a ship....
So I decided get a small cosmetic bag and gather...

Safety pins, assorted sizes
Heel cushions, for shoes that might kill
Small sewing kit
Eye glass repair kit
Band aids

What else can you think of to add, that we find we might not pack?

How about antiseptic (sp) ointment to go along with the band aides.

Hi Trip,
I am a pharmacist so I am in charge of all the over the counter meds on the cruise! You name it, I have it! If you would like my detailed list let me know. I didn't know if you wanted me to post that on the "styles" board. If you wear pantyhose ( i don't on the cruise) but if you do, a clear nail polish to stop runs. Also, I always buy a travel size static guard for the clingy linings on dresses!

Photocopy of your passport in a separate location from the original.
Eye drops for those sun and wind dried eyes.
Real Kleenexes, especially for Alaska or other cold weather. They make a soft pack that's great for packing.
