To all my cruisers: a word of caution regarding cruise line contact information found online. Many phone numbers listed are not valid and may be used to solicit payments or promote 'required' cruise purchases. To maintain your security, please process all payments through me and direct any cruise-related inquiries to my attention. I am commited to supporting you and providing exceptional service.
I'm hearing about way too many scams where scammers are acting like the cruise line and telling you owe more money on your cruise.
I have your back.

Thanks to my friend, Laura Rucker, for the idea.

The Turtle Farm is an interesting place on Grand Caymen. If you're going to do that, make sure to stop by Hell. That way, you can say you've 'Been to Hell and back'

Make two copies of the front and back of your credit cards and your passport identification page and take one copy with you and leave one with someone at home .

That way if you lose one or they are stolen you can easily cancel the cards or get a replacement passport.

Travel tip..........

Make sure your passport is good for at least 6 months after the date that you return to the United States.
This will ensure that you can get back into the country. There are also other countries that require that your passport be good for 6 months after you enter the country.

Make sure you allow plenty of time to renew. Renewal times have been all over the place the last few years.

Travel Tip for Tuesday: (thanks to Travel Tips & Hacks by Laurie)
Pack some post it notes. They can be used for the following (and many more)
- Cover your room's peephole
- Cover the microwave clock/timer
- Cover the TV power light

I've used them to leave notes in my cruise cabin for the room steward or for the person I'm rooming with.
Leave a comment with other things you use post it notes for when you're traveling
