Creator's Key Takeaways

Carnival is raising their gratuity rates and I love I love all the news headlines that I've read so far

Wi-Fi's always been kind of an expensive luxury on a cruise ship so right now it's at $10.20 per day

this is a parent John we're cruising with a family of five we homeschool our three children

all the balconies are gone guys they blew off the ship they're no longer there
