Creator's Key Takeaways

We are no way experts at cruising, but we are seasoned caravaners, and that's our caravan outside on our driveway.

The most important thing you got to remember is that you can take a bottle of wine or champagne per adult in your group onto the ship.

We got these moon bottles on Amazon. They can keep drinks cold for 24 hours, hot for 12 hours. They got a metal spout.

It's always better to be safe than sorry. That's what I say, you know, be prepared.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Take a bottle of wine or champagne per adult onto the ship.
Bring a reusable water bottle to fill up at water stations.
Use magnetic hooks for hanging clothes in the cabin.
Take spare glasses, hearing aids, or processor parts if needed.
Pack hand sanitizer, tissues, and seasickness tablets.
