Doing laundry

One of the best benefits we get on Princess, a result of having cruised with them for more than 150 days, is free laundry and dry cleaning. About every other day or so I "do laundry". This involves getting a laundry bag and form from the stack our cabin steward has provided us, finding a pen, counting the dirties, filling out the form, and, the hardest part, doing the math. (Yes, there's an error In my math on this form- I later found it). Even though the laundry is free to us, the cost is added to our statement and then immediately subtracted off. 

After fitting the laundry in a paper bag, and putting this slip on top, I set the bag out by 9am for our cabin steward Cristian to pick up. The clean, pressed clothes are delivered back to us the next day around 5pm

Exhausting!!
