Beautiful plates from Azamara.  (Glad to see that someone else takes pictures of the food.)<br /><br />Now that the airlines are going to charge for that second piece of luggage (per trip, per person), any &quot;new&quot; packing hints?  I have tried the totally black (you know women and their shoes) and that got boring by day 5.  I have tried same bottoms, different tops.  Did fine until I spilled and got dirty.  I have tried &quot;jelly rolling&quot; in order to cram more in (almost made the 50lb. limit).  Last cruise, I packed for 7 days (gone for 18) and did laundry x3 on the ship.  Not a problem except for the Celebrity Mercury doesn&#39;t have do-it-yourself laundry and I am highly allergic to soap.  So, commercial laundering might present a problem, for me - at least.<br /><br />I know that March 2009 is a long way away to even think about packing, but it is something that I ponder from time to time.<br /><br />Happy Wednesday.
