My Cruising Family description on YouTube:

Welcome to our YouTube channel where you'll see us CRUISING aboard ships at sea... flying at CRUISING altitude in the friendly skies 'cause we definitely enjoy land vacations too... and CRUISING through daily life. My name is Peta-Gaye. I'm wife to Allan, and mom to our two boys, AJ and LJ. We love to travel together as a family! We often travel with my mom also, and I enjoy having "me time" and "couple's time" while grandma manages the boys! When I started this channel years ago, I pretty much put together vacay photo slideshows. Very blah... I know... I hadn’t really studied YouTube and video creation! Anyway, fast-forward to 2021 and onward... by popular demand from the @mycruisingfam Instagram family, we're vlogging family, faith, food, and of course, travel! Vlogs are loading, and I hope you'll join our journey and enjoy!

The Watch-outs

The shrimp is bland, y'all.

🥉KnowledgeableMy Cruising Family

This pizza took a lot. And this is just a day. This isn't even a room that's, you know, full of capacity. So wondering what that'll be like.

I was hungry again like within an hour after dinner so there's that
