Excel Packing List - Download available

God Bless the person who created this list. Discovered it tonight and it will save me so much time.
 


I was getting the same error message -
try going back to page 5 and look at 2disneycruzrs post - there is a link to her website, and I was able to open it from her website!

Fantastic list! I'm cruising the Med in July, so ignoring the Castaway Cay info, it will be really helpful. Now to get a list of stuff off to my mom in IL to send to me pre-cruise - stuff like Downy wrinkle release isn't avail in the UK!

Thanks,

Make sure you scroll to the bottom of your screen to see the tabs. Click on the tab to get to the different lists. (Make sure you also have Microsoft Office Excel 97-2003 or the free viewer for it.) I added a "Scrapbookers" tab at the end from suggestions posted by DIS scrapbookers. Access via my site below (I added it this summer so it's not on the original list that we posted on the boards).

Click the link above that will direct you to the Excel file of cruise tips and packing list provided by fellow DISers and stateroom report link. Click on the Cruise & Travel Tips Tab to get to the file.

I don't know why the excel file isn't there to share..I will try to check the page tomorrow..I know .mac changed to .me so maybe that is the reason..
 
I would love to be able to open it but, it just won't on my Mac laptop.

Any suggestions?? Can it be e-mailed?

Thanks!
