Cruise Ship Dining -- A Beginner's Guide

I thought this was a good overview of cruise ship dining. There isn't anything earth-shaking, but it will go over the different types of dining opportunities available on ships in general.

At present, we still have "anytime" dining on our Alaskan Cruise. I haven't heard anything from the travel agent as to the first seating availability.

What Else to Bring?

This list includes items you may not think about but might be helpful on a cruise. The list will grow as items are thought of.

1. Three-way plug - to charge phones, cameras, laptops, etc.
2. Night light - for bathroom so overhead lights don't need to be turned on in the middle of the night.
3. Seasick medication
4. Sunscreen - it is cool in Alaska, but there are many hours of sunlight.
5. Binoculars - to view the wildlife from the ship
6. Alarm clock, battery operated - it is nice to have a clock you are familiar with and if there are any power issues, you have a clock with the correct time.
7. Small Flashlight - when it gets dark in the room, it gets very dark.
8. Insect Repellant - those Alaskan mosquitoes are big and very hungry.
9. Small Journal - it is nice to write down places you have seen and interesting things encountered as well as to record places where photos have been taken.
10. Games - we are going to be At Sea for nearly 3 days, might be fun to play cards, Trivial Pursuit, Scrabble, etc.
11. Reading Material - a good book, a few magazines which can be tossed and/or crossword/puzzle books - nice to have for relaxing during Cruising Days.
