Summary

Traveling internationally right now feels so out-of-reach for us. Luckily, one of our great listeners, Jennifer, recently took her family on a trip to Greece, including a Greek Isles cruise aboard the Celebrity Apex. We really enjoyed catching-up with Jennifer to hear all about what it was like to travel internationally, how she navigated the patchwork of requirements, and what it was like to sail aboard Celebrity's newest ship - the Apex. We even do a bit of comparing and contrasting with Disney Cruise Line.
