Creator's Key Takeaways

I'm going to get on that ship by myself, 60 and sassy and solo with mobility issues.

I have done my mustard drill and now I'm at Alfredo's for lunch.

I'm on a solo cruise. Never done that before. So, we're going to give it a shot.

I don't care if this boat sits here for 4 days. I'm not getting off the ship.

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Bring an adapter for charging devices as there are only two outlets in the cabin.
βœ“Use your outlets wisely due to limited availability.
βœ“If you have mobility issues, plan for challenges but it can still be enjoyable.

YouTube Video Description↓

60 and Sassy and Solo! Join me as I attempt my first solo cruise. I'm sailing the beautiful Regal Princess, leaving out of Galveston, TX. I've got some mobility issues. I hurt my knee and will be using a cane throughout the cruise. So this may be a much needed vacation or a recipe for disaster. :-) Either way it will be an adventure. Today is Embarkation Day. This is scheduled to be a 4 day cruise to Cozumel. Spoiler alert - there are some complications. Come along and find out what happens.
