    Question Do you have a plan - Middle of the Night - Muster Alarm

    If you had to go to your Muster Station in the middle of the night, do you have a plan for what you would quickly put on and take with you ... other than your life jacket?

    definitely

    first we always have our clothes laid out for the next day -- old habit from years of work

    we quickly dress

    i hit the safe and the medical bag while joe gets the lifejackets

    we listen to the announcements as to what we are suppose to do

    Much like Yonnie (KK)!

    We have our clothes to wear home (comfortable for travel) hanging in the back of our closet which would be easy if we were half asleep and needed to dress quickly. I'd toss our two meds in my cruise purse while he got the life jackets and we'd be good to go!

    Best to have a PLAN! This actually has happened to some on cruise ships and will probably happen again!

    Gosh, never thought about going to the safe! Guess that would also be a good thing to do!

    I never even thought about this happening, I guess that I should! I did read on a packing site that you should make copies of all your important documents for both yourself and to be given to a trusted family member or friend in case of stolen credit cards or lost passports.

    We do this - there are copies at home for our sons to access, and we also have scanned copies saved in my In Box so that we can access remotely via email address should we need to. Gives great peace of mind. One time I forgot to print some tickets that we needed whilst we were away. I remembered them as we arrived at the airport (3 hr drive from home) and we printed them once we'd arrived at our destination. Worked a treat.

    Good info on what we can do before we go if we happen to have a serious problem.
