Creator's Key Takeaways

I'm going to be diamond at the end of the second cruise. So, the goal of reaching diamond is achieved.

The Paradise is a smaller ship. It's a fantasy class ship, so you have less balconies. You have less dining options, but you have a little bit more entertainment options.

I highly recommend you put Port of Tampa on your list for a cruise. It is wonderful.

My ultimate goal with these cruises is to be able to spend as much time with everybody as humanly possible.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Pay the extra $20 for valet parking at Port of Tampa.
Bring a collapsible duffel bag for extra luggage space.
Check with credit card providers for TSA PreCheck or Global Entry credits.
