Creator's Key Takeaways

what a day i set my alarm for four o'clock this morning to wake up for my first cruise of 2021 and boy was i excited

i somehow messed up a really important form that i had to provide in order to be allowed into spain so that was a whole fiasco that almost cost me the trip

moral of the story is read the fine print but i swear i read the fine print over and over and over and i don't know how i missed this step

i had my first meal on board already which was a feta cheese baguette sandwich and some fries hashtag healthy hashtag cruise calories don't count

YouTube Video Description

First cruise of 2021! On March 12th, I flew from Hamburg, Germany down to Gran Canaria, Spain, to board the TUI MeinSchiff 2 for a 7 night cruise around the Canary Islands. We stopped on Teneriffa, Lanzarote, and La Gomera. Due to the current situation, there are several new regulations and paperwork to pay attention to, and somehow I missed a very important one, which almost cost me the entire trip! Luckily, it all worked out and I had a fantastic time. This is the first of several videos coming from this voyage. #meinschiff #kanaren The "Major Complications" video: https://youtu.be/6yG39WhW-ec Get your "Washy Washy" T-Shirts and "BRB" Towels here: www.teespring.com/stores/very-unofficial-travel-guides Get exclusive videos and behind the scenes looks here: www.patreon.com/veryunofficial Like the music?
