Matching and ironing

We have so many clothes, so many days ,so many occasions. What will we travel in, how hot will it be.Thank goodness for 25 Kg allowance on flight.If it was not for formal evenings could i just take shorts and tee shirts and maybe one 'smart' outfit in a small case?My chief ironing lady is totally focused on her task and is military in her approach, thank goodness. I could not attempt this scale of operation without her packing and preparing skills. I know we will all be well turned out and everything will match,i don't really do matching.
This is going to be such an interesting varied great cruise. A delicate mix of interests and needs, ages and of course sunners and shaders.

Our tickets have arrived, the suitcases are out, the countdown has begun...

We will be flying from Manchester to Rome, where we'll be transferred by coach to Civitavecchia where the newly stretched Braemar should be waiting for us. How exciting!
