Creator's Key Takeaways

I ended up meeting a lady named Beverly who came up to me and said are you expecting anybody I said no feel free to sit down and join me

this was possibly the worst excursion I've been on no it's a second to worst because of the cruelty on the the worst one I ever went on was in Florida

I was really glad to see the monkeys but I would not recommend that to her if there's a way that you can do the private one

I feel ripped off and I really contemplated contacting somebody when I got back on the ship and letting them know
