Creator's Key Takeaways

We are on Ovations of the Seas preview cruise. It is the first time she is sailing out of Los Angeles, California.

Might have even lost some luggage. How did our first day on Ovation of the Seas go?

I love the quantum class ships because as you can see just from the hallways, the rooms are absolutely beautiful.

This is not navigator. Wow. Thank you. We are headed to Insanada.

Follow signs for Queen Mary to avoid GPS confusion when driving to Port of Los Angeles.
Park in the additional cruise parking area for easier access and to avoid circling.
Book iFly reservations immediately upon boarding as they fill up quickly.
Use a magnetic refrigerator basket for extra toiletries storage in the cabin.
Try the royal cheesecake in the Wind Jammer on night one.
