So first of all, Chad, welcome to the Royal Caribbean blog podcast.

Thank you very much for having me.

Absolutely.

And Chad, I'm living actually through you in this case because I know this is your first

cruise, but I was so wanted to book this cruise that you booked on because this came, this

was back in like what, November or early December, this deal came out?

Yeah, I believe it was a beginning of December.

Yeah, and this was a deal that Royal Crimin puts out deals every week.

But this particular week, they had this cruise for coming up in January.

It's the 13th, right?
