I’m back, and I have some tips to share…<\/p>\n
Using the medication bottles Medco sent me wasn’t that bad. I’ve got them set aside in a big plastic bag for the next trip, and plan to rotate them out with empty bottles. By the way, no one wanted to see them. <\/p>\n
See my earlier notes on traveling with the CPAP and TSA. I want to find a better way to handle that, especially since next trip is on the train. I was able to consolidate everything into two bags for the trip back and that was easier.<\/p>\n
Be assertive when it comes to assistance, and sitting near the restroom IS a good thing. <\/p>\n
Extra sets are a good idea, and having extra sets with you, not in checked baggage is good. I went through 3 sets on the first day of traveling, but it got better later. <\/p>\n
My biggest problem on the ship was going low. Have all the locations for quick food in your mind. I ended up eating some things I wouldn’t have otherwise if I had not gone low. You do a LOT of walking, especially if you are doing a conference like I did. My room and the restaurants were in the front end of the ship, my sessions were all in the back end.<\/p>\n
Traveling isn’t as intimidating now, and I think I can handle it.<\/p>\n
Did I over pack? I had two more dressy dreses than I needed, one less pair of panties, and one more exercise outfit than it needed. In the scheme of things, I don’t think I over packed, the stuff I didn’t use did not take up that much room. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
