Creator's Key Takeaways

This is deck five. So far, I am underwhelmed with Crystal.

Yes, they have drinks to greet you and champagne and everything, but where's the caviar?

I am very happy. Oh my god, there's so much here.

I never could have dreamt that I would be on a cruise ship disembarking from Cape Town, South Africa.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Take melazine as soon as you get on a cruise ship.
Make reservations for specialty restaurants early, as only four are allowed per trip.

YouTube Video Description

https://www.TravelsWithSheila.com Embarking a cruise in Capetown port involves lots of waiting, long lines and not enough ship personnel to get passengers on board. Upside is meeting people from Palm Springs while standing in a one hour line! Once onboard, more lines. No one ever said travel is easy but this embarkation rates as one of the worst; not a great beginning to Crystal. Please don't forget to Subscribe Share and ike. Thanks.
