YouTube Video Description↓

Today we share our experience with 6 months of retirement cruising. We booked 8 cruises to give us a taste of what it would be like to retire on a cruise ship. We made a decision on what it would be like and if we would do it again. We also made some decisions on how long we would spend on a cruise ship at once.
