Creator's Key Takeaways

In hindsight I wish we had just stayed on the ship enjoyed going through the Panama Canal both times enjoyed a less crowded ship hung out by the pool.

Sabatinis was not a win for us.

I have to push Royal to the top of our favorite cruise lines so far list.

✓Pre-order afternoon tea to avoid waiting.
