Creator's Key Takeaways

I've never had a bad cruise. If I've been stop on a cruise, it's because another cruiser. Nothing to do with the cruise line, nothing to do with their employees.

I'm getting on the Freedom of the Seas on December 5th, and they have a non-smoking casino on the prominade next to Sarrento's Pizza.

I'm not offended by being Walmart of the seas. That doesn't bother me one bit. You have everything you need. And it doesn't cost as much as everybody else.

I won $150. I put in 40 and I got down to about $20 and I hit a triple jackpot wild and a blazing 37 or something.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Check your passport expiration date well before your trip.
If you have a fear of fish, do not use bread to attract them while snorkeling.
For pinto beans, soak them overnight and use smoked turkey necks for flavor instead of ham hocks.
Use the Instant Pot to cook beans quickly.
If you are afraid of storms, do not sleep through them.
