Creator's Key Takeaways

This cruise has been one for the books. It's it's it's been truly great and especially for me experiencing a new cruise line for the very first time with tons of different ports that I've never been to.

The steak was everything I thought it was going to be. I did have to tussle with it just a little bit. Not much. Um, but the flavor of that steak was so good.

Melanin at Sea definitely knows how to put on a group cruise.

I've never been late for all the board, so this this was kind of nerve-wracking. I'm not going to lie to you. It was very nerve-wracking.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Get good cruise insurance, especially for excursions outside the cruise line.
Check the details of your travel insurance to ensure coverage for non-cruise line activities.
