Creator's Key Takeaways

We visited New York, Bermuda, the Azors, Lisbon, and Barcelona, and then ultimately ending in Rome.

It was a wonderful trip.

The food on board, it wasn't necessarily bad, I don't think.

I wish I had known how awful the weather was going to treat us.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Underpack for a transatlantic cruise and Europe trip.
Check weather forecasts thoroughly, as spring can be cold.
Use Apple Maps for navigating subway systems in big cities.
Book Broadway rush tickets for discounted shows.
