Every trip I make a copy of this same spreadsheet:

In 14 days we are wheels up with the kids. Cant wait. Our third trip as a family. Kids now 7, 11, 13. 2025 Version: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1M5n3XoryxVKOLsEhnGKa5c9bI3TBdw2ulEF_DtaHbg0/edit?usp=sharing

I usually bring $100 in cash per day and use my CC whenever possible. I have one card I ONLY use on vacation. Saves you a lot of grief if you have to close an account.

Echo the need to always properly greet people and have maximum politeness. Like this is how you should always be anyway.... smile

Download and familiarize yourself with whatsapp. Pretty much everything runs and communicates through it.

I try to avoid anyplace that the cruise ships go. For example, dont go to Foxys when there is a ship at Jost. Dont go to the Baths when there is a ship at Spanish Town. Etc...

Keep things simple and flexible.

I bring navionics on my ipad mini and use what I am familiar with for navigation. I bring a handheld VHF.

Have a great time!
