Cruising In Style - What Not To Wear - Shoes


Oh my goodness, I'm absolutely shocked at how some people dress to impress when they disembarking the cruise ships. We have a ways to go before the cruise ships head back to Seattle for the Alaska cruise season, but if you are like me, and you are cruising to Alaska this spring, you are already planning what to pack.

When you are disembarking the ships in Seattle, keep in mind you may have a good 1/4 to 1/2 mile walk from the ship to the customs check out. Customs can go fast, but it can be a very long slow wait. So wear something comfy to walk in. I didn't say you have to dress like a droll. Comfy doesn't have to be frumpy.

The last time I was cruising in Seattle, I actually saw a couple of women wearing shoes with spike heels when we were disembarking. Could they not look out from their breakfast table and see how long and steep the walk was going to be?

Did they think we were all going to look at their Christian Dior's and think "That girl's got it going on. She's got great shoes." Well, that's not what we were thinking dearie...

We were thinking... "Stupid idiot."
