Packing for a Carnival Cruise

Vickie Travelz

I waited until the last day to pack.

We are leaving in the morning and I have many items laid out to put into the suitcase and I am pretty excited to try out my new packing cubes so look for a post on that experiment soon.

I remembered that one of my students gave me an amazon gift card and I wanted to be sure to get some new books on my kindle before we left — I plan to sit on the deck in the sunshine with my book and my beverage and just relax.  I am looking forward to it.  I was pretty excited to be able to purchase some books from my wish list but it took me over an hour to choose which ones to purchase – what is wrong with me?

I have had several kindles over the years and I have to say that the touch screen, backlit e-reader is my favorite.  I can read without the light on and my husband is quite appreciative of that.  My dad was even nice enough to purchase the one without the ads, I mean “special offers”.

I am off to charge my kindle and test out my new packing cubes!
