Exclusive! Just discovered on August cruise on Adventure of the Seas

[Paid4c4]

We just returned from Adventure of the Seas on Saturday, August 27, 2022.  We have discussed our trip and both agree salt air makes clothing shrink!

For me it was mostly deserts but I like blaming the salt air better.

I always figured that I was growing because of all the delicious food I was constantly eating, and that is why my clothes no longer fit by the end of the cruise.

100%. Even clothes you leave in the cabin and don't wear shrink!

Despite the walls being lined with something to block out the wi-fi the salt air gets through!

I just got back from a trip to Las Vegas and discovered the same thing about desert air.

If you walk the stairs as much as possible, and avoid the bread at meals it will somehow negate the salt air affect.

Here's the solution!!! I know it seems like work but I have done it and it worked every time. Take you item of clothing and place in a sink with lukewarm water and a cap of baby shampoo. Gently wash it then squeeze out water, do not ring it out. Place in a dry towel and roll clothing up to absorb access water. Leave for a few minutes then gently stretch out clothing. Do not rinse out baby shampoo. We do this on our cruises and our clothes are good as new.
