Creator's Key Takeaways
we've just boarded our cruise and we're all feeling very giddy one of the first things we do is go to the main dining room to check our table that we've been assigned
tip number two is all about when you're feeling a little bit woozy on a cruise ship yes seasickness
we recommend booking a cabin in the center of the ship because here there's going to be less movement and the further down you are as well the better
tip number ten is to have patience and just really enjoy it all there's going to be extra checks and ports there's going to be changes on your cruise but just most of all just be thankful that you're going to be on a cruise
