Creator's Key Takeaways

I really did. And then Honey said today he wanted to do the Crown's Edge, so he did it.

I think that is certain rooms for me. The shower. No.

I think I prefer the Aqua Theater on the Oasis class better.

I really miss even though I didn't use it, I keep saying it, the hammocks.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Request evening cleaning for your stateroom.
Let your stateroom attendant know if the bed is not firm enough and request extra padding or blankets.
Get to the Aqua Theater show early to secure a good seat.
Consider using the casino program to make cruising more affordable.
