Description

Tracey shares her candid thoughts about her first cruise experience, addressing her initial reluctance and how she overcame fears of being left behind at port and navigating crowded spaces as an introvert.

• Preparing for a cruise by booking a hotel near the port the night before departure
• Getting priority boarding with "Faster to the Fun" for early access and shorter lines
• Traveling with 22 family members and the challenges of keeping everyone together
• Communication challenges at sea and the importance of purchasing phone packages
• The reality of cruise ship dining schedules and food quality (especially Guy's Burgers)
• Navigating excursions and the safety advantage of booking through the cruise line
• Benefits of balcony rooms and clever space-saving tips like magnetic hooks
• Watching your onboard charges and checking your bill regularly for errors
• Bringing sunscreen, Dramamine, and Ziploc bags for late-night snacks

Book the ding dang trip! Life is too short. Go travel, see something new, do something different, especially in this day and age where everything is just so crazy. Go enjoy yourself.
