Creator's Key Takeaways

this actually started in 2018 it was a little girl 10-year-old girl named Abby who wanted to just hide ducks to make people smile

you don't want to hide them in the gift shops of any of the cruise lines it can be looked at as you know the same kind of a thing when you find it as if you were stealing something

some cruise lines have actually banned hiding ducks and that would be Disney Cruise Line and Norwegian

I've been taking about 10 per sailing and I'm not sure I may dial that back a little bit I've got a three night and a four night and a five night and then a 12 night and then another five night all back to back
