Creator's Key Takeaways

it was a trip of a lifetime. Pure joy.

we got it at a really good price I think and I will and I was going to say the original room we booked was 80 58 and then the and of course we would have been happy anywhere in the ship but the room they gave us when they finally did the room assignments was 8038 which is very similar literally just right down the hall it's I cannot believe how much we saved on this it's really it was a great deal

it was a million out of ten it was a trip of a lifetime it was so surreal still very surreal that we actually did it super meaningful joyous all the things we wanted and even more it was incredible

it was just pure joy
