Thread: PACKING- my three favorite things

I have seen these kind of posts before (and maybe this will rate a sticky in the future), but maybe this will consolidate it, and help cruisers- newbie to experienced.... Post your reply with a list only, of your three favorite things to pack for a cruise. BUT, you CANNOT repeat anything a previous post included. Description of why, or how used is fine, but just the list please.... Maybe we will develop the "ideal" packing list?

My answer?

1. Bright alarm clock- many stateroom have no clock, and works as a night light too.
2. Collapsible extra duffel bag- great for excursions and extra souvenirs home
3. Comfortable walking shoes!
