    melmar02 got a reaction from dee02554 in Cruise Kit - what's in yours?   
    Pop up hampers. We planned on taking 1 for the kids and just a mesh laundry bag for me and DH. Amazon was selling a 2 pack, so we went ahead and brought the second one. It's a little thing, but we loved being able to just toss dirty clothes in instead of having to mess with finding the opening on a shapeless bag.

    I'll take your word for it - I just turned it down (and shortly thereafter off) as soon as I came in the room.

    This was fun to read through. We will be in this same cabin in 158 days and we can’t wait!

    We're back and I have pictures uploaded to my computer. I'll be sorting through them and posting over the next few days. Here's the rest of our cabin and balcony. The master bath was the same as a Jr. Suite bathroom. We loved the space and separation of the living room, and two full bathrooms made getting ready for dinner pretty quick. The balcony was amazing, my kids even had room to practice their tae kwon do forms out there. It would have easily fit two more loungers. The view wasn't too shabby either. 
    We really enjoyed this room. We have the same category booked for our February sailing on Enchantment, and we booked the exact same cabin while onboard for Liberty again in November, 2020.

    Oh ,I almost forgot, my son and I went to deck one after dinner to get my bag. They had the bag marked as possibly having an extension cord in it, which I didn't have in there of course. I told them that they were more than welcome to open it up. They ran it through the x-ray machine again, and it must have been someone else looking at the bag while I was there because he said, "that's not an extension cord, it's just a long cord on the curling iron." So I guess the images are pretty subjective. We were down there all of 2 minutes and most of that was waiting on an elevator to pick us up.

    Day 1 - after lunch in the Windjamer we registered for Adventure Ocean, explored the ship a little, and wound up in the Star Lounge to wait for the rooms to open. We were only there about 15 minutes. The day one menu was waiting for us in our cabin when we arrived.

     
    We dropped off our carry on bags, put on our swim suits, and headed to the pool. We stayed mostly at Splashaway Bay, and visited the main pools as well. Both areas had lots of people, but I wouldn't call it crowded. The vacation had officially begun!

    We went back to the room around 3pm to change into dry clothes for Muster. 3 of our 4 bags had arrived by this time - mine was missing. After Muster, we went topside for sail away. We saw several jelly fish and birds, but no dolphins.

     
    With a 5:45 MTD reservation, we went back to the room about 5:00pm to get ready for dinner. I still had no bag, so I knew I would be visiting deck one before the night was out. Not a problem, but is was no fun drying my hair with the dryer provided in the room. After dinner we went back to the room and crashed. We planned on getting back out, but everyone was just too tired.

    We got the internet today so I'll give a quick update. We explored the ship a little and registered for Adventure Ocean  after we ate.  We changed for dinner And my bag still had not arrived by then. Turns out my curling iron has an exceptionally long cord and looks like an extension cord. When they ran it through the scanner in front of me the guy at the monitor was pretty sure it was just the curling iron,  so I guess there's lot of room for interpretation. ?‍♀️

    We made it! Boarded right at 10:45, never even sat down in the terminal. Eating lunch at the Windjammer. Plate 1 is seafood paella and salad. Dessert to come!

    Probably - after being here a couple days, we see it's age a little bit more. Breakfast was pretty much the same this morning, so DH wants to venture out to eat before we head the rest of the way to Galveston in the morning. I still say I would stay here again, but it wouldn't be my first choice and we'll probably get adjoining rooms at the Hilton down the road in February instead. 
    Space Center was fun, but it got busy quick since it's Saturday. We toured mission control which has been restored for the 50th anniversary of the first moon walk. We plan to come back in February when we sail on Enchantment, and it shouldn't be as crowded since it will be the middle of the week. We're going to hit the hotel pool this afternoon, and repack our carry on bags for the morning. With the dog issue right before we left, I feel like I ran out of time and just threw in the the last items wherever they fit in whatever bag they fit!

    The chocolate bar was great. Vacation has officially started! 
    I'm going to turn off my phone for a few days. We may get a day of internet half way through, but I'll post the review and lots of photos when we're back.
    Thanks for all the help (especially @WAAAYTOOO for trying to get our suite email straightened out)!
