Grandma is 100% right with her suggestion. When I went to university, the university ID was used for everything, it had our meal plan on it, access to the gym, access to the library, entrance to most buildings, access to your dorms and your room, etc, so I KNEW I was incapable of keeping up with this thing, so I put a command hook right by the inside of my dorm door, and hung it on there every time I came back to the room and took it every time I left. Never lost it in 4 years.
I came to say that. My husband and I do this on all are cruise helps soo much
Not a good Idea when u return them it still has all your personal info on to easy for somone to steal it
When I still lived at home and me and my brothers started to drive, my dad got a big key box for all the keys and spares, with tags. And we had a couple of hooks beside it to hang our main key chains on. When I moved out, I still hang up my keys as soon as I get home, and than I hang my jacket over to kind of hide it
@@att5616 nice
@littlebigkicker wasn't a problem. We had doors that automatically locked behind you once you closed them going in or out.
We’ve been on dozens of cruises. Be careful with your boarding pass in the lanyard. Wind can and WILL knock it out and toss it overboard. Also don’t wear the lanyard while out at port stops. It draws attention to the fact that you are a short term tourist (a target).
I do agree with this! But with 20 people in their group they will definitely look like tourists LOL 😂
@@ang8904I'm confused
@@alexusramirez670 agree 😂 they will look like they're on a field trip haha
I put mine in my purse and put it back on as I was on the dock basically bout to walk back on cruise ship
I think one of my top travel tips is to take a photo of your luggage so that if it goes missing you can show the staff exactly what it looks like. We also differentiate ours by using luggage straps and never put your address in it, only your phone number. If your address is in it and someone steals it they’ll know where you live and that your house it most likely empty. Have a good cruise crazy pieces
Ooh. Great ideas. Thank you!
I recommend an air tag in the suitcase.
@@NathanaelLarson my mates do that, I don’t have the money for them though 😂
For Evie.... The shell of a ostrich egg is about 2mm thick and resembles porcelain in both beauty and shine. It is mostly composed of crystalline calcite and is extremely strong. A full egg can weigh up to 5 pounds, but they usually tip the scales around 3 1/2 pounds. The contents of the egg are equal to approximately 18-24 chicken eggs. I life very close to one of the biggest ostrich farm area in the world, it is a town called Oudtshoorn in South Africa. ( Obviously the farms is in close proximity to this town) 💐
Awesome information! Love learning now things. Thank you for sharing!!
@@susanreed9173 😊 My pleasure, they are amazing animals.
Hello from Cape Town. Love Oudtshoorn. ❤🇿🇦
@@donnavanderwalt7106 ❤️
My best sunscreen tip is to put on sunscreen before you get dressed. No burn lines. Also apply at least 20 mins before you go in sun. It is a game changer. Buy the time you get dressed and leave you are set.
And don't forget to re-apply. Don't be afraid to long swim tops and a hat if need be as well!!
Exactly and reapply and wait a few minutes then go back in
So excited for this vlog! Crazy I have been watching for 5 years now! Love your family. I hope you all had a blast
The duck thing is also a jeep thing. Look up ducking jeeps and what it means!! It always brings a smile to my face when I come outside and see a duck was left for me! My 11 year old son loves it too!!!
As a cruiser and a Jeeper, I looove it so much!!
just had to drop a comment to say how amazing this video was.
Great ideas! I would suggest that for the younger kids an adult holds their cruise card...this would also prevent the kids charging things like special drinks (milk shakes, slushie drinks etc) and the arcade etc without permission. My youngest charged over $100 at the arcade one day before I realized it. You can also put limits on the kids cards if you go to customer service.
Also make sure your extension cords are NOT surge protected or the cruise line might confiscate them at check in.
I would take lots of magnetic hooks to hang swim suits, hats as well as lanyards.
I also pack room spray of some sort...can get smelly in a small space with lots of people, a bathroom and wet towels etc.
Finally make sure anything you hang on the door or walls does not leave any residue...tape and regular stickers are often not permitted...only magnets and command strips. Check with the cruise line on all of this of course but these were my experiences.
Happy cruising!
Very good tips!
But they are back already. And Joe shared some experiences of the graduation cruise on Beyond Crazy also.
@@lindadriessen9027that was their first cruise. This one is with the entire family
They are back home now. The cruise was until 28th June and all their vlogs are 1 week behind real time
@Mommyvisions Yes I know. The first one was with the graduates and Halie.
Just pointing out, that the reactions will be read after their trip .
Crystal you get a big gold star⭐️for being so organized. This vlog made me so happy I LOVE being organized my OCD is so very proud of you. My grade 7 teachers motto was organization is the key to success and it’s stuck with me. And I love Tristan’s idea that if you misbehave you have to wear the Cheeto costume for punishment.
So happy for this video on a cold Saturday Evening in South Africa.Hope you guys had a great time❤
I make custom luggage tags for large family trips. I laminate the basic info tag then use colored and patterned Duct Tape for each one around the edges. They are easy to see and identify. Use a hole punch in one corner to attach. Years ago Walmart and Michaels carried a bunch of patterns and even Dollar Tree has fun colors. Everyone picked their own so they could easily identify theirs. Use colored zip ties to attach and put a piece of the tape on each side of suitcade.
I know that you are already in the cruise now. Or already back from it. I actually prayed that everything will work out OK with you guys during the cruise. ❤️
They are back home now as disembark was 28th June
Can't wait to go on this cruise with all of you. Thanks for taking me a long with y'all.
Love y’all, be careful, but have a blast time. Give everybody a hugs for me. If Aurora and Scarlet don’t get off an island just put them in a carnival daycare on the cruise. Give everybody a hugs for me .
🎉thank you so very kind
Do you personally know them?
To see Evie and Aurora so happy about the cruise is so heart warming. On vacation in Galveston last week, we saw the cruise ship in port. It was huge. I can't wait to see the cruise vlogs.
Hello Crazy Pieces 👋. I have been a long-time silent viewer. It's been a long time since Crystal said you grow old with your kids, and she couldn't wait to see her children grow up and to see what they become. I have watched your family grow in numbers and height. Watching Alex, Hannah, and Brody's adoption was the video that hooked me. I can still see all three wrapped in blankets as you pretend they were your newborn babies😂 I have laughed, cried, and enjoyed watching your family share their lives with the world. Since it's summer, it would be nice to see you do an episode with everyone playing the card game Water Wars. Like little Max and Hallie did years ago. Winner gets to push loser into the pool. Instead of getting to use a water soaker.😂
Omg packing for 22 people that has to be so hard ,I have problems packing for myself lol. But it will be all worth it have a great time, enjoy,and stay safe. ❤❤❤
Keeping track of everything for that many people would give me anxiety. I'm glad you got it together. Just fo it and no distractions.
Those binders are amazing! Reminds me of when I was an AFC (adult foster care) case manager they have those in the group homes for the residents. So amazing!
@ Crazy Pieces I am so excited for all of you to go on your next Cruise 🚢 because Evie is with you this time and she is going to have the best time ever!!! Crystal you did a great job prepping for the Cruise this time since you learned from the last one. I hope that you all have an amazing time. I love you all so much.
cruise?
I would never be able to enjoy a cruise being responsible for so many people. I'd be so worried about one getting lost. May God keep you all safe.
Amen 🙏
I have the exact same door magnets for cruising! Going on my 28th at the end of next week! Hope you all have/had a wonderful time!
My husband retires the end of July as a meat manger for Costco,and we are going on a cruise next April and celebrating and early 50 th anniversary. We are going to the Caribbean’s, Panama. Going for 5 weeks.
Crystal can you please make a new detailed video on all the vitamins and everything you've been taking for your PCOS and show us how you've dropped to a healthy weight. It's been a bit of a struggle and I can use some guidance. Only of possible. Thanks in advance!
Don’t eat carbs. Cut down serving sizes. Don’t eat or snack after your last meal of the day. This is how I lost weight.
@@bridgwllglad this worked for you, with pcos this isn’t always something that works unfortunately
@@lovinglifewitheli I have pcos as well. Don’t use that as an excuse.
It’s interesting when I hear people who are land locked prepare for a cruise or a trip to the beach. Those of us who live by the ocean basically have sunblock in our back pocket at all times. On a first name basis with the lifeguards and the ice cream truck guy. Took me 2 minutes to walk to the beach from my house. Blessed to have had that luxury growing up.
I’m lost if I’m too far away from the ocean. I can’t ever live somewhere too far away from the sea. That’s my moment of zen.
Always get beach shoes too. They aren’t that cool but if you have cut your feet on a barnacles, a reef or coral? Not a good time.
Here’s a tip for large groups…When you all have to get showered at the same time you can use the showers 🚿 in the spa area also.
Pray for safe N fun trip! i’m So excited for the vlogs coming while yall are on da cruise 💙🙏❣️😊
Nice organizing plan and nice packing day your mom really had a nice idea with keeping track of all the names and dates of their birthdays and I like the idea of everyone's information in different binders it really helps
Just went on a cruise 2 weeks ago and was very fun. We stopped at 3 different places. Hope you guys have fun!!!
0:14 Bag resistance quality control: approved!
Hello crazy pieces thank you so so much for sharing this amazing video I am so excited for your family to go on another cruise it is so exciting I love your videos and I appreciate you ❤❤❤❤
Put the patches on a day ahead and leave them on per instructions . Don't allow yourself to start getting sick , it it much harder to get under control if you do.
3:56 so cool! My grampa had ostriches on his farm and they would paint pretty pictures on the eggs! I still have mine from childhood, it's an adorable baby panda! 🥰 Safe travels! Lots of Love from NC✌🏼💜🤗
i am so early let's go yay a new video let's go I was waiting for this one I get so excited for when you guys post I love when you guys post packing videos
I love all the information Crystal that you’re giving this is awesome and I think the ducks are adorable especially if you put your crazy pieces name on those. I think you’ll get a lot of followers too because you guys are such an amazing family. I’m excited to see you on your cruise this is gonna be wonderful.
This was great! My parents are going on a cruise this fall. Now I can make survival packs for them.
Hope you all have an amazing vacation..
Max is a hoot ! Mark and he are a fun dual as well. I bet Tristan didn’t see that Cheeto coming. Hahaha🎉
I can’t get over how tall Evie is getting. Love that little girl. Good luck packing
Keeping everyone in our thoughts and prayers for safe travels to and from and lot's of fun filled days &nights, with loads of adventures and relaxation,etc.on you'lls cruise. Have a blessed one Crazy Pieces. 😊❤😊
Y'all, have a fun, safe trip. I loved this video🙏❤️
Happy cruising and keep safe the Pettits. Can’t wait to watch your next video.
So much to do packing everything to sort out hope everything is ready on time for the Cruise have a wonderful time ❤❤
They are probably already back by now.
To seal a bottle for travel just use a piece of a plastic bag (ziploc bag. grocery bag) that is large enough to cover the bottle threads.
Love You Guys, Stay Safe.
A lot of prep and organising for the cruise, good ideas too. I am sure you will all have a great time. Blessings.
So excited for all the upcoming content ! Enjoy your trip everyone have a blast create the best memories and stay safe everyone. God bless ❤
Hopefully everything goes ok for you with Carnival, they don't exactly have the best reputation.
Also agree with others, don't wear the lanyard at ports, it'll mark you very obviously as a short term tourist.
Not a big deal if you stay close to the ship but more if you venture further afield.
This all is exactly what my roommate and I did in college. Had a hook by the door, had our cards on lanyards. Miss those days.
if you can you should look into buying the brand of suit away travel, they are pricey but they are nice, four wheels, travel smoothly through the airport, all the suitcases could match but would be in different colors, some also have a battery in them to charge your phone with. You can even get the kids luggage tags to go with them with their initials on them.
Hey Crazy Pieces hope you guys have such an amazing cruise down in Ensenada, Mexico. I will be traveling down by car with my family in a couple of weeks just for a weekend get away. As a child I would always travel there with my parents to visit my grandpa’s house. Hope you guys really enjoy it. I know you will. If you guys have enough time to explore in Ensenada, Mexico I really recommend going to La Bufadora. You guys will really enjoy walking in that area. Hopefully you can ask someone that works on the ship and see if they have tours. But either way Ensenada is amazing place to explore with family. Have fun😁
Wow! You all enjoy your vacation and have fun!
Have a great cruise the Pettit family enjoy yourselves ❤
Make sure those extra plugs aren't surge protectors. Cruise ships will not allow surge protectors on board
The company that makes them sells them on Amazon as being safe for cruise ships. Some lines though don't like it you have ones with plug sockets on them though (from what I've seen and read it mostly seems to be Disney). Usually if they have a problem with it they will return it to you after the cruise in the cruise terminal though.
@@ThomasJMsame goes with royal carribean when I went on a cruise last year. Better just use your traveling adapter with multiple usb ports
How exciting!!! enjoy have fun and be safe❤❤
I love to see your American life style! Love from Sweden ❤
This is not the norm.
@@jojo-tz2ymNobody said it was, chill.
U are so well organized I'm sure the cruise will go so smooth and u all will have do much fun
I can't wait to come along
@Evie, ostrich egg shells are made up of 96%
crystalline cacite and then also 4% organic material which is proteins. The shell itself is about one inch thick.
They live on vegetation and come mostly from Australia.
😊
South Africa as well.
That's the most interesting part of travelling for me. Edu-tainment
You're right! I meant to say @@lindadriessen9027South Africa too. Thank you😊
@@lindadriessen9027yup I have a lovely decorative ostrich egg of the big 5 on one side and a map of SA on the other. It lives on my mantle piece in my living room
Hey have fun on your Cruise guys- Enjoy and stay safe. It is always worth it in the end. :D
Be careful which level you take the stairs on the cruise ship though! I came down from the lido deck where the pool is and I didn’t know the stairs were wet and I slipped and fell really hard on my elbow didn’t break it but just be careful especially grandma!
So excited for this vlog! Can’t wait for the cruise you guys are gonna have so much fun. Love you guys ❤❤
yayy!I’m so excited for the video! Such a great thing that travel with family🥰
Hope you all have/had a safe, healthy, happy, fun cruise 🚢 with nothing bad/dangerous occurring ❤️🙏😎🌞👏🏻🎶🤞
I’m watching this while needing to pack for our own cruise 😂 We’ve been on 6 in one year and have 10 more booked until the end of 2025. TIP: Especially for having a family of this size, ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS BUY THE VACATION PROTECTION!!!
Crystal, you are a great planner and organizer.
Hope you all are enjoying your cruises 🛳
Good luck and have a great time on your cruise! I been getting ready for something big myself but not as fun as a cruise, I’m moving tomorrow! It’s go time! 💪 Bon Voyage! 🛳️
Hi, I just wanted to say my brother had an awesome idea of using collapsible measuring cup and his kids used that as a scoop for the beach for his kids. Maybe that may work for you all the next time. i love your videos
Have a great and wonderful trip and be safe and have fun crazy pieces ❤😇🙏🏾🙌🏾🤟🏾❤️🔥❤️🫶🏾💕🫡💯
Have a fabulous trip 🎉 I love your family
Evie looks so much like Ronja Röverdotter in this video, the brave, kind, strong minded, happy and freedom loving character from the Astrid Lindgren movie from the 80s. Might be a character to introduce her to, I think she would like it 😊
Loved this video. Whats happening with all the dogs? Mark towing Max on the suitcase was hysterical 😅
It’s not our business who is watching them.
I thought at another video you bought a dispenser that had three compartment that you turn for shampoo,conditioner and body bath. I bought one and really like it. I put mine in a gallon zip lock bag in case on they leak
love that idea eacch kid has a binder w all info in 1 area for each child
I love the lanyard idea. Also you could put their names on it.
Love this video!! Just wanted to let you know that even though our phones are waterproof the salt water from the ocean will burn out the inside of your phone. I thought the same thing when I went on my first cruise. My iPhone 14 would not turn back on the next day.
Hope you all have a safe fun trip ❤ I think the most thing I’ve heard about cruise is people getting sick or gastro bugs so stay safe and always carry hand sanitizer
Just a suggestion when giving he dogs toys make sure the toy is at least bigger then their mouth that small duck could easily get stuck in their mouth if they were to try to swallow it.. I’m a fur grandma so I’m always making sure the toys are dog safe and kitty safe..
You need to watch the video to the end before commenting. Crystal obviously isn’t stupid since she took it away.
I do hope Crystal has given each child and teenagers packing list, and not everyone one packing loads of electrical equipment in their case total nightmare for airport security staff who xray all the suitcases too.
Cabins are very small too.
Be quiet
I think they drive to California! But the rooms are so smal
Crystal is the mother. She did things her way, which worked for her.
Put your cruise card on a lanyard so you have it with you at all times.
Hi I’ve been watch all your family’s channels I love all the love and support u have for one another and if you read this please know that “people change people” pls keep this in your mind and I hope to see your bright future ahead and I love u all and tell Melinda she is a wonderful mother and after that I abid u ado
Love you crazy pieces. Always look forward to your videos they just make my day 😊❤

Not one of the dogs barking while u talking🤣💀 Crystal idk how u do it! I'd go crazy trying to make sure I didn't forget any1 lol
Norwegian cruise line had a few in the cabins.
Those are for the cruise luggage tags not boarding pass.
Crystal I’ll put a few zip ties in box I have set aside to send so can use the right kind zip tie etc to fix Aurora Realborn lavender awake doll. I have a small package I’ll be sending to aurora in July and I’ll add those to her box and put In a sandwich baggie with ur name on it so you can fix and or if happens again will have extras as well.
I hope you get a chance to film alot of your adventures ❤
This is a lot of work 🥹😍 your family should be so thankful to have you
That question about egg caught from evie crystal love guard lol😂
Hope the trip goes well !!!
Always watching from the United Kingdom hope the cloth packing for everyone went well. Its the empty shell of an ostrich 😂
You were right Tristan, it was a hot dog! Hahaha
lol i knew Bella was going to fall before she even started😂
Have fun on your cruise
11:30 if you all are doing carnival, the multi plug you got may work. We used one on Carnival sunshine in March. We just got off Royal Caribbean last week, and it was taken from our suitcase, as a forbidden item. 😑
Hope everyone has fun on the cruise
Enjoy your trip you guys ❤
Oh wow chaos lol but it will so be worth it
Love you guys HERVEY BAY QUEENSLAND AUSTRALIA
Hope ya'll have great Vacation
Can you put a link for those luggage riding thing I really want one
