    Hi, I'm boarding a cruise from Bari. Which entrance did you use to get to the port? On the google map, it appears you have to go all the way around the wall of the port to get to the ship but your video shows that you just walked in from the old town.

    • @genelleandmike
      @genelleandmike 2 місяці тому

      It appears there are different places cruise ships dock in Bari. Ours docked exactly where I placed the marker on my map and the entrance was that close to the ship. I don't think google maps is always accurate where the ship docks either. I found that often times Oceania docked in a completely different place than google said it would.

    I live in Eureka. Actually used to live within eyeshot of Carson. Having lived in Fresno and San Francisco prior, Eureka is no more dangerous than any other city. Use common sense when sightseeing. But yeah, the homelessness and drug problem ruins this otherwise wonderful city. Side note: It's pronounced wee-OTT and ar-CAY-ta. Another side note, you missed out not stopping in Ferndale before hitting Eureka. It's a wonderful, clean, quaint place. And Centerville Beach is breathtaking. Stay safe and enjoy your adventures.

    • @genelleandmike
      @genelleandmike 2 місяці тому

      Thank you for sharing your experiences and insight. I, of course wish I had spent more time here, and maybe wasn't so burned out from traveling. I think my portrayal was skewed slightly negative because I had such high expectations for Eureka. It's somewhere I've always wanted to visit. It was mainly the interactions I had with people there that gave me a bad taste. However, the city itself and the architecture is beautiful and I truly love the nature surrounding it. I will most definitely put Ferndale on my list to visit in the future along with Centerville Beach. Take care!

      There's a lot of controversy over Morro Bay/Rock. I didn't want to go into it on the video (people aren't really coming here for that), but if you do research on the history of this area, it's kind of heartbreaking. They have made efforts to pay to tribute to natives from this land, and create sanctuaries for wildlife...but it's hard to repair the damage that has been done. It also sounds like the future of this area isn't looking too good in terms of maintaining it's integrity 😕

    I am really disappointed that you intended this as a review of Napa, but had little to say about it and then your bad experience in Fairfield threw shade on your Napa experience. Then, when you actually were in Napa Valley, the focus was on how your ice cream fell and that it was hot. Nothing about how cute the town was, nothing about how much nicer it was in every way than where you stayed ... not on the great food (which Napa is known for nearly as much as the wines). Kinda unfair. You can certainly enjoy much in Napa Valley without being wine people. Happy Trails.

      Hi Gayle, thank you for commenting on our video and giving it a watch. I understand your perspective, however we are just a couple that was on an 8 month road trip that decided to document our journey. This isn't our job and it isn't intended to be a perfect review of every place we visit. It's simply our experience and something for us to look back on. We posted it on UA-cam so others can watch if they care to see how our experience was. We did like Napa, and we wanted to let others know that staying in Fairfield may not be the best option depending on your own preferences. Please keep in mind that vlog style videos will have silly things like the ice cream incident and such, which to us, is harmless fun. Sorry that it didn't meet your expectations. Please keep in mind in the future that some people that post on UA-cam are just having fun making free content (like us).

    Was the Suite well soundproof? We have been looking to book a suite, but because of its location, we are a little concern with noises esp at night.

      We stayed in 11055 on this cruise and our previous one. It's below the pool deck, but we didn't find it loud above us accept occasionally when they were moving around lounge chairs to clean. Overall the suite is very sound proof and was actually much quieter than the Oceania Suite. The Oceania suite squeaked a lot and overall was noisier when coming into or leaving port. At night our room was very quiet and barely made a sound even when the sea was choppier. No hallway noise at all. I will suggest that a sound machine is a great thing to pack and always helps us sleep wherever we are. They make ones that are very small and easy to travel with.

    My hubby is from LG too. He came to Maui 30 years ago. My first time to the mainland was in 1999 and my mother in law took me to Filoli. I really loved it. My husband and I are going to Half Moon Bay next year and visit with his college buddy who lives there.

      That is amazing! Yes, Filoli was a beautiful property to visit. The gardens were my favorite part. Have a great time in Half Moon Bay! We will always love visiting there.
