Creator's Key Takeaways

It has been a fun morning so far. Sarah and I are already having a great time together, which is amazing.

The ship is amazing. It is an older ship and it does feel very lived in, but that's okay.

I was really glad that I knew that. And they were able to put stickers on my medallion. So, it is the right color cuz it's elite.

The soft syrup on board, it's the best soft syrup I've had. It was so creamy.

Creator's Tips & Advice

If you have a loyalty issue, go to the loyalty center instead of guest services to avoid long lines.
For wheelchair accessible rooms, use the switch to open the door instead of turning the knob.
Fill out Canada immigration papers in advance if possible, as the cruise line may handle it for you.
