Thanks everyone I am excited about the possible
cruise to Alaska.
Of course I have never been on a cruise or outside
the "United States" so I know nothing about any of t
his.
My "dream" vacation is to visit Figi, don't know why but
I do.
Of course I keep thinking about not having my "comfort"
things near me while I am on the cruise. Things like, my
fabric, sewing machines, scissors, etc. I AM taking my laptop
so that I can at least "design" some quilts in EQ7 maybe that
will sustain me a little bit while gone.
Maybe I will find some fabric shops; what do you think?

on the sail days (no port stops) you do things on the ship like revue shows, eat, bingo, eat, movies on deck, eat, lounge shows, eat, art auctions, eat, talent shows, eat, etc. did i say eat? you can sun bathe on the side of the ship or read a book or play games, or swim dip in the pools, or sip the drinks with the umbrellas while you relax in the cool breeze. with the alaskan cruise you will be viewing all sorts of glaciers and marine life. hopefully you will not be thinking about quilting. just be prepared to enjoy yourself. oh and be sure to take some clothing that is comfortable and expandable.
as for fiji, i wanna go also. i have been fascinated with the south pacific and i definately want to visit there and bora bora. it's all on my bucket list.

HAHAHA well I have enough trouble with eating, it is one of
the reasons my diabetes gets a little out of whack now and
then (like right now) so it is a constant battle for me to be
"good" on the BEST of days, I can only imagine what it is going
to be like on a cruise. Better make sure I have plenty of insulin,
quick set infusions, reservoirs, and batteries for the pump.
Me not think about quilting? I find that nearly impossible to
imagine, I DREAM about quilting. I have hundreds of fantastic
quilts designed in my dreams, to bad I can't remember them
when I am awake.
I LOVE these sp swaps so much that I am "planning " ahead
already for July and making a few things so that I can mail
out ahead of time (providing I have a name at that the time).
Ummm can you say I am "addicted" to the secret pal swaps?
No sign of any packages for me yet. But there is still time.

louise there are so many things to do on a cruise that the least thing i would worry about is something to do and it depends on how many ports you will visit will crusing. i have never seen fabric shops in port cities nor have i looked for any when visiting the cities. i am usually on excursions to see what's to discover in that place. once you know what cruise line you will be traveling on, you can go to their website and find out about the excursions they have in each port stop so that you can plan what you want to do.
on the sail days (no port stops) you do things on the ship like revue shows, eat, bingo, eat, movies on deck, eat, lounge shows, eat, art auctions, eat, talent shows, eat, etc. did i say eat? you can sun bathe on the side of the ship or read a book or play games, or swim dip in the pools, or sip the drinks with the umbrellas while you relax in the cool breeze. with the alaskan cruise you will be viewing all sorts of glaciers and marine life. hopefully you will not be thinking about quilting. just be prepared to enjoy yourself. oh and be sure to take some clothing that is comfortable and expandable.
