Skro's Nest description on YouTube:

I’m Randy Skroback from Tucson, Arizona. My wife & I have been cruising since 2007. Due to difficulty walking long distances, I now use a mobility scooter—especially on cruise ships. Before a 2021 cruise, I searched YouTube for videos about cruising with a scooter or wheelchair, but found very little useful content. That inspired me to create “SKRO’S NEST” where I share real-world tips, honest reviews, and practical advice for cruising with a mobility scooter. Whether you cruise on Wheels or on Feet, you’ll find helpful insights to make your trip smoother and more enjoyable. I show both the good and the not-so-good to help others be better prepared. If you find my videos helpful, please SUBSCRIBE—it really helps support the channel. If you’d like to go a step further, I’d be incredibly grateful if you became a A PATREON: https://www.patreon.com/c/skrosnest/membership or Channel MEMBER! Every bit helps me keep creating content that makes cruising more accessible for everyone!

Again, this is worth its weight and gold as far as all of the artifacts, history, and uh and memorabilia that's in there

The Watch-outs

the ventilation in the casino is horrendous the smell of smoke is strong in the non-smoking area

🥉KnowledgeableSkro's Nest

A major problem when when you're on the Carnival Spirit, if you're in a wheelchair or mobility scooter, is trying to get upstairs to the uh slides because there's no elevator to get you up to deck 11.

🥉KnowledgeableSkro's Nest

the legend just recently came came out of dry dock and it is disappointing that Carnival didn't do something to rectify the poor ventilation in the casino

🥉KnowledgeableSkro's Nest

So, if you're not mobile enough to get up these steps, then uh you're out of luck.

🥉KnowledgeableSkro's Nest

the controls for the tub and the shower are down on this end so you have to climb into the tub in order to turn everything on
