Creator's Key Takeaways
I only took a carry-on bag and my personal item because it was only me traveling on this cruise.
Embarcation was a breeze. Getting on the ship was an absolute breeze.
I'm really grateful that the weather was wonderful for the entire duration of this stay.
I'm actually pretty disappointed now. We'll get into that a little bit later.
