Creator's Key Takeaways

the security workers there at the Heathrow International Airport in London have just announced that from June 24th through August 27th of this year they are going to choose 31 days in that basically two-month window there to go on strike

the royal princess is limping back to Port after having generator problems they it impacted the crews enough that they missed an hour and a half of their time in ketchup can and they are going to completely miss their call in British Columbia

princess gave everyone 50 for their hassle

disembarkation there in Seattle went really really smoothly when we were disembarking last Saturday
