Creator's Key Takeaways

This is my first official full muster and I'm not looking forward to it.

It's been a hell of a morning.

Carnival is a very humbling experience.

We are here to celebrate our one year wedding anniversary.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Get to the parking garage as early as possible to secure a spot close to the dome.
If you have luggage, use the porters right after coming down the stairs for faster boarding.
Consider purchasing 'Faster to the Fun' for priority boarding if waiting in lines is a concern.

🆕New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Long wait times for boardingBe prepared for potential delays; the process can take longer than expected, but it's manageable.
Security screening and dog alertsDeclare prescription medication properly; the dog may alert on it, but it's a routine check.
