Creator's Key Takeaways

I was absolutely terrified and the main reason reason I was terrified was because I have really bad motion sickness

I didn't need it the last cruise that I went on I didn't put one on and for my upcoming Carnival Cruise I don't think I'm going to bring any there either

Carnival cruise lines are uh relatively uh inexpensive I mean when you tabulate all of the food that's included and drinks that's included and entertainment that's included on a Carnival Cruise

don't make the mistake I did don't wait 20 years to try a cruise

Creator's Tips & Advice

Pick a quick weekend or three-day cruise to test if you can handle motion sickness
Consider adult-only areas on ships if concerned about kids or party atmosphere
Add up vacation costs for meals, snacks, drinks, and entertainment to compare with cruise value
