TINKERTOY ..... the 1 & only
|
The Mediterranean is hot during the summer, kinds like the Caribbean. So take clothes for the heat. In addition, there will be plenty of pools and hot tubs on ship so plan on getting in the water. Also, your ship will have a gym and walking/jogging track. So take clothes for that too. Here's a list of what I suggest.
The dress on ship is casual all day until 6:00PM, so take:
-swim wear (at least 2),
-shorts, tank tops and "T's"
-sandals,
-sun glasses and sun screen,
-lotions,
-a cap or big hat for the sun,
-a book if you are a reader,
-your music player,
-sneakers and clothes to workout in if you like to use the gym,
-good walking shoes,
-your camera, and
-other personal toiletries including tooth paste, mouth wash or lotions.
Your cabin will have towels and soap provided, including pool and beach towels, and a hair dryer. It will also have a generic hair shampoo so you do not need to bring that unless you like a specific brand.
After 6:00 PM they request that you wear "sports or resort casual" attire. That's attire that you would expect a person to wear in a business office, (like a bank employee), shirt with a collar, slacks, skirt, blouse, etc. You can still wear shorts and swim wear in the pools and spas but not in public areas like dining rooms and restaurants, show rooms, bars, casino, etc.
Your cruise will have a formal night or two when you can wear your best stuff and maybe get pictures taken. The formal nights are REQUESTED not required attire. You will not be denied entry to the main dining room if you decide not to dress up, as long as you are at least sports casual. But most people do dress up. A gown or party dress for women and a suit or tux for men. Some people dress up both formal nights, some don't. We always take the formal stuff off after dinner and a photo or two and go back to casual stuff. |

It will be quite warm that time of the year. I went the end of June and it was 105 degrees the day we were in Rome, but by the time we got to Venice, it was in the 80's. So bring all your favorite summer clothes, but be sure to bring some long slacks too as a lot of the churches don't let you in with shorts on, that is if you go into a church. It is a beautiful cruise. |
