Creator's Key Takeaways

I had the most horrendous start to my MSC cruise, but I was desperate to try again because I did it solo.

This so far has been totally different. The muster was Well, you saw we literally walked on the boat.

The show tonight was absolutely brilliant. I think it I just loved it. It was amazing.

The food probably has not been the best today, but we've got our late night snack now.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Use the free shuttle buses from the World Trade Center to the cruise port.
Go to the Gin Project for great drinks and service.
If you have a problem with your dining time, look for staff with computers at the restaurants to get it changed.
