Creator's Key Takeaways

I'll start off by saying yes, it's worth it. I didn't know for sure before actually doing the cruise.

The vibe was right and it was so different. It was it was The reason I bring this up is because we're talking about the kids. It was pretty much melanated people everywhere.

The food wasn't that great. It was the same thing over and over. It was nothing special.

The Sailaway Party was good. So, it was good for R&B, good for reggae, good for hip-hop, um, good for jazz even.
