food/drink/etc

Soft coolers please - hard ones slide around and can scratch the cabin - also have two fridges you can use - we have plenty of bottled water

Please no red or rose wine (berry juice )which can stain

Also Suggest bringing a second pair of clean soled sneakers or non marking shoes if don't want to go barefoot (many do this) - street shoes worn through the parking lot make a mess of the deck so we leave them in a basket in a locker...
