Speaking of laundry facilities (was Room Service Question)

"Dillon Pyron" wrote in message ... Our problem (both onboard and at "regular" laundramats has been that the dryers frequently don't get the loads done in the alotted time. One thing I found out on the Princess laundry, make sure to clean the link trap. I ran one load that hardly dried at all in the allotted time. Then I clean the the filter (and it was totally blocked) and it all dried in 20 minutes. Like I said, I've lived in apartments most of my life, so that's the one part of the issue I'm not confused about. ;-) I automatically clean out the lint filter first. Marcia |

Marcia I do this with my home dryer too - it isn't necessary to have used apartment dryers to know about doing this. |

Should try to see if you can get one of those Seminars At Sea for a Baltics or Fjords sailing. If I took advantage of all the offers that came across the desk I'd never have time to sell anything.vbg I want to do a couple of European cruises and a river boat cruise, but those will have to wait a few more years until I am able to take off more time than I already do.

We get things that come by but *never have the time to take for all the ones Esp the Apple Vacations ones.... and heck we Agents are not the Richest in the bunch!

At that time : they also sold small packs of detergent and softener for a dollar or so : each. : : I put quarters into old plastic film cans. They will hold about $6 : worth of quarters each or maybe a little more. After ripping open a coin sleeve, I put the remainder of coin into hubby's pocket. Becomes more convenient to listen how many steps he is, behind me. vbg. |

Room Service Question
Marsha,
George and jeangot it right and the only ting I have to add is watch the temperatures in Alaska. It can be mighty cold in the morning up there. Also there can be strong winds while watching the glaciers from a balcony.
