Going away in winter - what to do with heating and water

[GillD46]

Enjoy New Orleans, Gill; we went there on our very first cruise and absolutely loved it there.

Have a fabulous time Gill - I did the 35 night cruise on Oceana in 2012 and loved it particularly New Orleans with the overnight stay - the crew couldn't wait to finish dinner so that they could head up town to Bourbon Street for the night - you must go up there - wonderful atmosphere and music - its crazy

Ooooh yes I'd forgotten about them - delicious

I've just googled beignets - I'm hungry already.

Just been doing the bulk of the packing today. 35 nights into 2 big suitcases, 1 small one, and a suit carrier. Not bad.

But it's making me think about next year, when we do a Singapore to San Francisco world leg for 45 nights. How on earth do you pack for that when you are flying. That's going to be something I'll be seeking advice on, that's for sure.
