Creator's Key Takeaways

the buffet area was great you know you got guys or my tradition and our our tradition what we get on is we go to guys get our Guys Burger and get our drink from the bar sit there and do that

the entertainment was good they had a wide variety of entertainment throughout the ship you had three people on the violin you had people playing acapella on the guitar the piano bar was pretty busy
