Creator's Key Takeaways

We are Kathy and Tim and we retired in 2023 and sold everything. And now we travel the world by air, land, and sea.

It's shady. It's breezy and it's really hot today, but it's beautiful up here.

Another one of our favorite spots on this ship, truly a hidden gem, is at the end of deck 15, 16, 14 on the aft side.

Hot tip on number eight for the laundromat. We've got to do it. So, we're going to use our medallions.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Use medallions for laundry on Princess ships to avoid tokens.
Find available laundry units on lowest debark levels or on deck 7 forward near Good Spirits.
Visit the aft side of decks 15, 16, or 14 for a great photo view without a suite.
Go to deck 7 outside Balooni's Bar for photos of the sidewake and sunrise/sunset.
Check the hidden Guest Services on deck 6 by coming down the forward elevators.
