Notebook
Ida Kisser
Getting ready to take leave of a
snow covered dairy farm in
Pennsylvania for the hot sun of the
tropics has been a major un
dertaking.
I was sent a letter from the tour
guide listing 35 things to do in
advance of the trip. Some of them
one would naturally think of doing
such as purchasing travelers
checks, label luggage inside and
out and have camera checked and
buy new batteries. Other
suggestions were a bit different
and included arrange kennel for
your pets, put porch furniture
away and put jewelry in safe
deposit box.
As my husband will be home,
there was no need to follow the
instructions that said; turn off
water, set automatic light timers,
disconnect electric appliances and
lock all doors and windows in
cluding basement and garage.
I thought two small suitcases
would be sufficient until I started
packing. Besides an assortment of
dresses, skirts, blouses, slacks,
shorts anH swimsuits there were

numerous other necessary items.
Shoes for one and sweaters and an
umbrella to mention just a few. So
things had to be moved to a larger
suitcase. At least this time, I’ll
have a permanent eight day
residence on the ship and not have
to pack every morning and move
as I did on my European trip the
other year.
A list of 28 things not including
clothes to carry in a flight bag
were toothpaste, toothbrush,
deodorant, makeup, hairspray,
tanning lotion, jewelry, medicines,
wallet, itinerary, credit cards,
airline tickets, passport and on and
on. Have you ever tried to buy
tanning lotion in January?
All of this preparation doesn’t
say a word about the baking and
cooking that I did the day before
leaving. I’d gotten some extra
groceries, made cookies, prepared
meat, thawed cheese, and cooked
some desserts to make meals more
readily available for my busy
husband. Surely hope everything
goes okay for both of us.
