PG Cruiser Posted November 27, 2019 Report Share Posted November 27, 2019 What do you collect as keepsakes from your cruises? I collect luggage tags! I like seeing them with my running bibs and medals I also collect SeaPass cards (which I intend to mount on a frame or shadow box. The souvenir cups from the beverage package are also part of the collection, except the cheap flimsy plastic ones they were using in summer of this year (2019). I thought of collecting Cruise Compasses but I might just keep scanned version on digital storage. teddy, ChessE4 and Jack_Lime 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SPS Posted November 27, 2019 Report Share Posted November 27, 2019 My wife collects S&P shakers and tries to get a set from each new port we visit. I like to bring back a bottle of locally made liquor from each cruise. Rum, tequila, etc. We almost always seem to bring back a magnet or two, well.

I collect the Cruise Compasses in foreign languages plus English and put them in 3-ring binders with other materials. This is in addition to the SeaPass cards you've mentioned. We look for the odd port souvenir, but I'm prohibited from acquiring anything that takes up a lot of space. My awesome hand-carved cane purchased at Labadee is still buried in the closet....

bhageerah Posted November 28, 2019 Report Share Posted November 28, 2019 We collected the SeaPass cards as well as magnets from every ship and port. I try to find something unique from every port that we are in, something that you can not find just anywhere and grab that as well. Once we move and I have the space I will find a reasonably sized display case and show them off, but at the moment most of what I purchase is still wrapped in paper and in a drawer or cabinet where I keep it all until then.

parkyy2k Posted October 2, 2021 Report Share Posted October 2, 2021 How do you store your collected Sea passes? Mine are in a drawer but I am thinking of displaying them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tmsmith Posted October 2, 2021 Report Share Posted October 2, 2021 We store our seapass cards in a business card holder binder. As far a collectibles, we keep a dollar chip from the casino and I make a magnet out of that. Each chip has an identifier for the ship so that is our ship "display." I also buy a Christmas ornament from each island and we have an extra Christmas tree just for travels. It turns into a trip down memory lane each year when I pull the ornaments out! miles4us2go and IRMO12HD 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, I think Royal has stopped producing the 'heavy' 3D ship Ornaments. We just came off Odyssey and the only ones they had were round 3d ones. They're ok , but don't sit on the shelf.

They still had the "heavy" ornaments on Ovation a few weeks ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sabarwolf Posted October 6, 2021 Report Share Posted October 6, 2021 Key chains from the places I visit. (And since starting cruising, the ships I visit as well.) I used to scrapbook, so I used to collect everything, but not anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrimsonCruiser Posted October 6, 2021 Report Share Posted October 6, 2021 sea pass cards but I want to start getting little figures or magnets of the ships we've been on... which will mean repeating some ships or trying to buy stuff online.

parkyy2k Posted October 6, 2021 Report Share Posted October 6, 2021 We buy the Christmas tree ship decorations and take off the hooks, it leaves you with a little ship model Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MuttMutt Posted October 6, 2021 Report Share Posted October 6, 2021 Sea pass cards. I also have the cruise compass so hopefully either printed ones or pdf's are available. I have also found i like collecting basic bills and change (currency) from the places i have been. I have all the standard pocket currency from around a 20.00 dollar bill on down. Who knows. The us economy could be put to shame by Jamaica one day if some ultra rare mineral is found and overnight the JMD could be worth 1000 USD.

Va4fam Posted October 6, 2021 Report Share Posted October 6, 2021 We collect the sea pass cards, Christmas mini-ship ornaments, and try to get an ornament when it is our first stop at a new port. Decorating the tree brings back all the memories of our trips! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZuggsandMimi Posted October 6, 2021 Report Share Posted October 6, 2021 We like to make a trip down to the Customer Service desk and ask for a free deck of cards. Then whenever playing games with friends, get to remember the fun times. Va4fam and BeachGal 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
