Creator's Key Takeaways

I'm getting ready to head out to the Ensenada Port I just wanted to remind everyone that when you're getting off the ship you're going to go to the Ford elevators or the stairs down to the gangway on Deck zero

I think for the most part anywhere you go even in the states you can wander off or end up in an area that you may not want to but that's again that's just me

if you mention the beach life you know a health tack on an extra 10 minutes to your one hour massage

I'm really really impressed they were really good uh in my opinion good amount of sugar and cinnamon and the inside wasn't doughy it was cooked just right

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Have your sail and sign card handy to get off the ship
βœ“Walk the Malecon boardwalk area if you don't feel safe going into town
βœ“Mention 'the beach life' at the massage place for an extra 10 minutes on your massage
