Creator's Key Takeaways
Oh my gosh, David. I think this might be one of my favorite cruises of all time.
Honestly, this is the most magical Christmas I think I have ever experienced in my life.
It's just beautiful, isn't it? Well, bonjour from the country of France and a very good morning.
The markets are I'd say bigger than Cologne. Yes. and a much more spread out around the city.
