YouTube Video Description

Hey Cruisers, we're back from our Carnival Miracle cruise and were SO happy to host another livestream vlog. But first be sure to visit our sponsor https://cruiseline.com?utm_source=youtube&utm_campaign=cttv We revealed the winners of our social media "guess what I'm doing" photo contest, and answered dozens of questions. Be sure to catch the replay! So, we covered a ton today, including safety in port, our upcoming Panama Canal cruise, and my fish pedicure in Cabo. We share our favorite new cruise packing tip, and talk about aft cabins, Caribbean Princess, and taking beverages onboard your cruise. Thanks for watching, and we'll see you on the high seas!
