Key Moments
Editorial Summary
Matt from Royal Caribbean Blog shares eight personal traditions that he follows during every Royal Caribbean sailing. He begins by describing his habit of eating at the Windjammer buffet on embarkation day to cement the feeling of being on a cruise.

For those seeking adventure, he suggests trying the escape rooms available on select ships.

Creator's Key Takeaways
I go on is eat at the Windjammer on embarkation day it's not a cruise at my opinion unless we get to the port a little before noon get on board so I got my first meal at the legendary Windjammer buffet
night swims are a great experience with the new giant movie screens near the pools on most ships it's really fun taking a great film while swimming around in the water
I really love to watch the shore excursion channel in my stateroom when we're just laying around the room maybe getting ready to go or having you know a little bit of downtime
a big favorite of mine is to also sit by the pool while the live band plays picture this sunny day with maybe just a few clouds passing by sitting in a lounge chair at the pool deck
