Creator's Key Takeaways

We are Chuck and Ally and we are empty nesters who love to cruise.

This is our first cruise with the whole family. So, we'll see how it goes.

It's the busiest place on the ship after boarding. It's busy. Food's all right. It's not great.

I was nervous at first, but it's fun and we got to go in the pool and a wave pool and we did bumper cars and it's fun.

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Bring swimsuits in your carry-on for embarkation day to use the pools.
βœ“Arrive early for shows to secure front row seats.
