2 More Weeks!

2 more weeks and we will be Cruising the Blue!

Getting all last minute things taken care of.
Since we have horrible postal service where we live, we went today and stopped the mail. Figured that would give us 2 weeks to make sure the mail is actually held at the post office and not delivered. Plus the postal person never shuts the mailbox door, which would leave it open for a week.  Don't really get anything but junk mail nowadays anyway,

Have been saving up small bills ($1, $5, and $10) to take with us. Know we will not need cash onboard ship, but will need money for tips etc in ports. Read where small bill are best.

Have all the sail passes, passports and picture ID - so that is all taken care of.

Have collected all we will need in one area of the house so packing will be easier. Have read many useful sites and watch YouTubes on suggested items to bring - other than cloths and meds.

This week we will also make sure the car is checked over and ready to take us to the port.
