| Will one of you ladies PLEASE explain to me, one more time, WHY do you need so many shoes and why do you have to bring EVERY pair you own on vacation? |

If you have to ask you'll never really understand. But I'll try to explain. The shoes MUST match the outfit and in case the shoes decide to rebel and a formerly comfortable pair of shoes star to hurt you need an alternate pair. It's really all about options. |

sorry, no can do, because I take exactly 3 pairs of shoes regardless of length of trip ... sneakers for excursions, black pumps for dinner, and flip flops or some kind of slip on shoes for day time onboard the ship. That's it. Nothing else. No coordinating, color match, have to have a different pair of shoes for every bloody outfit. Oh, but ask ImMebsMom about Jeannine and her hauling 16 pairs of shoes on a 14 night cruise. |

| Susan, I am truly impressed. The least I ever managed was 6 pairs on a 12 day Transatlantic. |

| I just make sure every dinner outfit goes with black shoes During the day onboard the ship or on shore, I don't care about "matching." Now, ask me how much CLOTHES that I end up packing......that's a whole different story. |

Oh, but ask ImMebsMom about Jeannine and her hauling 16 pairs of shoes on a 14 night cruise. She is not kidding...in fact the shoe issue has come up during planning for our road trip this summer and that she can not pack one suitcase just full of shoes...I usually pack 1 pair of sneakers, 2 dress pairs (black and silver), and a couple of pair of flip flops (plain and fancier, so if my feet are killing me after an excursion, I can wear the fancier flip flops to dinner instead of heels) | |

| Laura, what are you guys driving for said road trip? The convertible or the Saturn? I don't think either one has enough room for 4 people PLUS luggage PLUS her shoes!! You will be doing laundry on the road, right????? |
