Creator's Key Takeaways

I am a Bonafide overpacker and this is going to be our 21st Cruise so it's not changing anytime soon.

The ship's water is completely tasteless and it is super clean it's probably cleaner than most manufactured bottled waters.

No one's going to notice and you know how those high heels take up space in your suitcase just don't do it ladies.

Even on formal night if you want to wear shorts and a t-shirt you're 99 % not going to be stopped.
