Hey Guys, thanks for foo g this cruise! I'm so excited to see your take in this cruise. You both are seasoned cruisers and also very positive. So many vloggers have had bad things to say about how old the ship is, not modernized, not clean, and no activities. So I'm curious as to your expert and positive views!
Looks like they did a lot of work on the ship since the last video I saw right after the pandemic. I have no doubt that they will continue to do so. For a quick getaway, you can’t beat the price. Very cute.
Love that you have a good tour and point out the positives of this ship. It's actually pretty good looking considering it's age. I would do it for a quick getaway if I were already in FL.
Had a great offer on this cruise come through this week. Your tour made me even more interested. Hope you find your sponge cake, Jay! Maybe you should look behind the shaker of salt.😁
Well you are both off to a good start and it looks like your weather is going to be great. This ship has a very different feel, It’s very open and so much seating! I like that. I hope you find your sponge cake Jay! And Dee, keep on your happy dancing!
I think doing the muster drill while in line for check in is a brilliant idea and that way everyone is exposed to it. Most hardly pay attention anyway.
Jesus, you all end one cruise and start another nearly right away, over and over again..... lol did I mention I'm your long lost Son? Lol you guys make this look so fun. I go to apply for my passport Friday, then I'll be booking my first one. I can't wait.
I don't know if this is the reference, but when I hear "Stars on the Water" I think of the George Strait song. I wonder if that's what it refers to. :)
Yep, that song was original done by Rodney Crowell in 1981, covered by Jimmy Buffet in 1983 (thus the Margaritaville tie-in), and George Strait in 2001. Same song, different versions!! :D
Thank you for a great tour Of the ship and your cabin... It looks like a fun ship for a couple of days but unfortunately there's no way I could deal with not being able to use my flat iron… I'm glad you mentioned that because without a doubt that little issue would keep me from booking this ship😞
RU-vidr Kyle Pallo and his friend did this exact cruise a couple of weeks ago. I'm ready to see the difference between you guys' vlog and theirs. I think your cruise maybe busier because alot of people use this ship as a ferry to the Bahamas and stay at the Bahamas for a few days and then ferry back. Yes you can board and take the ship for 1 night to the Bahamas to Florida. And vice versa. ***If you said this in your vlog I'm sorry I was cleaning while listening.
Griff and Alyssa went on this ship right after the rebranding. The first sailing, I think. Jimmy Buffet himself was on the cruise and did a concert. They vlogged about it. It wasn't that long ago.
You’re not wrong, ha ha… the buffet was pretty decent other than some overcooking issues. But hey, that’s sort of expected with buffet food, I suppose!! :P
I’m sure we’ll put them out eventually, but since we had already sailed and vlogged the ship and been to all the ports before, we bumped it to the bottom of the list for now!! :P ru-vid.com/group/PLbURfqJTql-z5EEuO6ix57Lm40qOd4413
I watched with the sound off because I’m in a break room at work. Why does it seem like you are the only two on board? The ship appears to be very clean and neat. I hope the food was good.
The ship hardly ever seems to sail full since they do two-day turnarounds over and over. I'm not sure how many folks we had onboard, but it wasn't many!! :D
Dee, would booking through you be anymore of a savings then booking with Royal Caribbean directly? Previously , we used our RCI membership/trade in time to book our last cruise but not sure if I really saved anything.
Sometimes I’m able to get special group discounts and promos, yes. Or if you book while onboard a ship you tend to get the best deals, and those bookings can be transferred to my agency after booking which allows me to seek better promos over time. ~Dee
@@parodeejay , Yep / also Kyle Pallo - Just went on it week ago or so ( Kyle Pallo did not like the ship much - he rather do big cruise lines for a short trip )
Ok if they got shrimp cocktails on the appetizer then why have jumbo shrimp for add on price? Wouldn't you just get another cocktail? Or are they breaded jumbo shrimp or something?
Just two days, back and forth. They have some land packages where you get off and stay in Freeport for however many days, but we haven’t looked into those.
