Creator's Key Takeaways

I'm super happy that I just happened to look out the window and see this beautiful sunrise.

We have priority boarding. So, we're going to be first on the ship.

We sat in the buffet and we had a coffee and some water and a piece of cake.

I'm going to eat the dessert first for sure and then I'm going to go up to the deli after and get something else.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Use priority boarding if available to get on the ship first.
Try the buffet for a quick meal when tired.
