Creator's Key Takeaways

Our cruise was terrible. We didn't know that blah blah blah. We didn't know the ship was old.

We expected it. Not a lot. And and we had a blast. It was absolutely fantastic.

Arrive the day before you cruise. Just do it. just get there.

The sun in the Caribbean is extremely hot. The very first cruise I went on um, years ago, many years ago with my husband. Um, he got sun poison.
