YouTube Video Description

After a night of bar hopping, I ended up booking this Adventure of the Seas cruise through Expedia. Because of my tipsiness, I actually forgot about it until the reminder for the final payment came in over 6 months later. In this episode, I drive my sister Heather and niece, Brooklyn back to Austin, spend a few days up there with them, then drive over to Galveston to board RoyalCaribbean's beautiful #AdventureOfTheSeas.
