Creator's Key Takeaways
This might be the best cruiseport area I've seen before.
I love it. And the other nice part is all these seings are first come, first serve, but they don't cost money.
It is one of my new favorite cruise ports.
Pedro was a good start. And now we're in a water park that we don't have to pay for.
