Question:
Several people inquired where to get the acupressure bands that
allievate sea sickness. I found them in many drug stores. The
pharmacist should be able to help you. These bands are inexpensive,
durable, non-habit forming, and safe for all ages and sexes. The ones I
had were called Sea-Bands. Even some of the ships sell them (under
various names) in their gift shops.
Answer:
The only problem I have with the sea sickness bands is how they look when you
are all dressed up on formal night.
Imagine what you'd look like if they _didn't_ work!
Funny thing about those bands--you never know if they'll work; you only
know when they don't. Seriously, drink lots of water while on board.
Between the flight, the bus or taxi ride to the pier, and the excitement
of check in, it's easy to get dehydrated. And dehydration is a leading
cause of sea sickness. I drink at least1.5 liters of water a day while on
board, and am never ill now.
