Creator's Key Takeaways
We were on the Carnival Jubilee, which is currently at Terminal 25.
We found the hotel to be really nice. Um, the rooms were spacious. It was clean. They had a really nice breakfast buffet.
The traffic, of course, was horrendous in the morning.
They were actually allowing folks from 12:00 to 12:30 and it's only 11:40.
