I have honestly never felt more Christmas me in my entire life

this is one of the more Scenic parts of the whole rind and honestly it's absolutely spectacular

this is why we love cruising in general as well you don't have to unpack dear no unpacking involved whatsoever

the perfect time to use a hot tub is in Winter right why would you use a hot tub in summer get it in winter when it's freezing outside and deliciously warm in here

Creator's Tips & Advice

When buying a drink at a Christmas market, you pay for the cup or glass, but you can get a refund if you return it.
Use the included excursions at every port to see major sites before exploring on your own.
