Creator's Key Takeaways

We're getting on the Grand Princess for a 32-day cruise. 216 days back to back. Alaska and Panama Canal.

It took us 25 minutes, give or take. I think my math is right to Emerald deck 8.

We're the Port Monkeys, and we'll see you in the next port.

Well, as a warning, um these are the beers out of our refrigerator that came with our mini bar. And we had to get glasses of ice.

Creator's Tips & Advice

โœ“Have your boarding pass ready when you get into the terminal.
โœ“Do the safety briefing and muster station check-in first after you go to your room.
โœ“Tap your medallion on the medallion reader at muster station.
