Creator's Key Takeaways

Hey guys, this is Tony from the Leo Hoppers and we just got on the Carnival Fenz in Long Beach.

It's a beautiful ship. I had a lovely lunch. The weather is gorgeous.

The pizza was pretty good. It was probably the greasiest pizza I have ever had on a Carnival ship.

We've seen turtles, we've seen sharks, whales, dolphins, flying fish. You name it, we've seen it.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Bring an extra card to plug in right here because you take that card out and the lights and air conditioning will turn off.
Plan ahead for rough seas by spacing out hangers to avoid rattling.
Always be looking off your balcony for wildlife.
