YouTube Video Description↓

Cruising during Hurricane season always has some risk. We were so lucky with smooth seas, until a Hurricane suddenly changed and affected our cruise. Although we were far from the storm, the Hurricane winds and rough seas wreaked havoc on our cruise ship, at least for a few hours. In this video I share what happened as our cruise ship, the Norwegian Joy managed to sail with over 50 mile an hour winds and rough seas. I also share what we did to get through the rough weather and deal with ship movement and motion sickness. I share real cruise tips that work for dealing with sea sickness. These proven cruise tips and tricks, are worth remembering if you are ever on a cruise and experience rough seas. Great video for first time cruisers and anyone who loves to cruise. Whether you are a Carnival cruise fan, Princess cruises, Royal Caribbean, Norwegian Cruise Line or on a Celebrity cruise, this tips and cruise advice will help.
