Creator's Key Takeaways

I have to say so far I'm very impressed with Harmony of the seas because I got to the port to get on the ship an hour before key people were supposed to be there and I walked in and I walked right onto the ship there was no weight at all

I'm the only person here even the bartender wasn't even in here until just recently and because we're going out of Galveston they have that reduced alcohol menu

they sent a plate of fruit that's awesome that's never happened

I'm very impressed with Harmony of the seas
