212 Days And Counting.....

One of the items on our to-do list for the cruise is to arrange for travel insurance to cover medical issues, trip cancellation, trip interruption and baggage loss.  I have checked out a number of potential insurers.  One of the problems I am encountering revolves around the fact that Myster is now 65.  A number of insurers do not offer medical coverage beyond 30 days if you are 65 and over.  Obviously 30 days will not be enough.  We have the option of getting coverage through the cruise line but the price is in USD and the exchange rate is not very good right now.  We will need to get the insurance by the time the final cruise payment is due in August.  I have a couple of potential insurers and I will investigate further between now and August.

In my quest to address storage issues for our cruise suite I found a great solution for my jewelry.  It is made by Heys and it is ecology friendly as well as being space-saving.  Win-win!  It is made from recycled water bottles and it will hold a lot of bling.  Bonus is that it can hang from a closet bar or hook and it can be folded to save room in a suitcase.  A picture of this gem is below.
