Creator's Key Takeaways
That cruise ship is pointed straight up at the sky. It is rolled up looking at the sky because it was hit by a rogue wave.
I'm very excited to get to try Star Princess this year. We've got a family cruise booked on her later.
I wouldn't be surprised if some big announcement came down to class there.
This would make me think twice about cruising to Hawaii.
