We’re the husband and wife team of Chris & Beth and, along with our 4-legged confidant Stache, we're simply tryin’ to live the way the good lord intended... cruising the world, traveling to new places, and tasting all the food!
Recently, life presented us with a challenge... overcome cancer. That convinced us to look at life through a different lens, take to the road, and enjoy the journey like never before.
With that purpose in mind, we’re on a ravenous adventure through life. On our travels we’ll taste delicious food, try new experiences, and travel to some flavorful places.

We should all get a petition to make Steampunk Humpty Dumpty the official MSC mascot
Yesssss another MSC cruise cast when I get out of work early! I love love love it!
Wallace and ladmo!!!! The best show ever! Aunt maude, metro center, big surf. And ladmo waffles at legend city. Great times
@@bzilla4670 Big Surf was one of Chris’ favs! And Captain Super! Wonderful memories!
He needs to start a wallace and ladmo you tube channel.. lol
can this become the MSC version of find the duck?
Thank you for this. The backstory is so fun to hear but that the MSC crew went above and beyond is great to know. I love that you do mention the stuff that's not so great but emphasize the good/greatness of the line.
@@jackiewilkey Have fun, be fair, and enjoy life (on a cruise)!😊
After listening to Chris's synopsis of the show, I have concluded that either him or I or both dropped a tab of acid right before seeing this show. I don't remember 90% of what he said happened... I don't remember the kiss member at all, etc. However, I do remember Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum riding Go-Karts in the show... 😂 You should make Tees for the Inaugural for everyone to purchase to wear on Embarkation. We would definitely buy a couple.
I'm taking my first MSC cruise this fall, after cruising for many years with another line. I've heard a lot of bad reviews about MSC, but I'm going to give it a try.
@@phyllisphilp9014 Go on and enjoy MSC’s uniqueness! Hope you have a wonderful cruise!😊
I want a sticker when on World America in 25. Love seeing you two. PS Biltmore was wonderful again, hot but wonderful
@@Dave17101 Ha! Yep, Biltmore (particularly in October-December🌬️🍃) is absolutely wonderful!
My wife and I LOVE MSC, but we too had heard how bad it was before our first cruise; so much so that we almost cancelled our first voyage in 2016 and went back to our comfort zone which at the time was Disney. But, we went anyway and I'm so glad we did. At the time, we started in the Yacht Club because of the lower price point and now we can't leave. It is the best cruise experience for us, and everybody should cruise the line that meets their vacation desires and expectations. I can't wait to hear about your Seascape cruise in the Yacht Club!
You would be fun on a Fred Olson cruise, I bet the staff would be tripping over themselves for you.😊
@@fredfolson5355 That truly is the “MSC” experience for a lot of us out here… perfectly explained! Thank you!😊
We are going September 1st on meraviglia they told us to bring something Brite for Sunshine night
new sub!!!
Melana and I have watched this once together, and I came back to watch again so I could comment: Love the salt reference at the beginning, made me really laugh How were you on a cruise ship and not have anything but 1 & 1/2 pancakes up to 6pm????? LoL You literally went back stage to ask about SPHD.... that cracks me up. I am beginning to think that SPHD has been Hoffa'd
My husband and I were on Ocean Cay in February. We were sailing on the Love Like You Mean It chartered cruise. It was the only port we had good weather!
Is Princess Cruises fast becoming a floating seniors' country club with unremarkable food?
Ya'll got me wanting to see the Egg Man. That was the first video I saw on your channel. I'm going on MSC next month and you guys help me make the choice.
My fav is Bimini great video
Got upgraded to the YC Interior this AM but it was still showing the Bella benefits... So I called and the support woman said "you upgraded just the cabin, not the experience." I was like, WHAT?! I have upgraded to YC three times in the past and that has never happened before - we always got the YC experience. How would they even police that? "Sorry, you can't eat in the private restaurant, you just have a YC cabin." I asked for a supervisor and after a long time on hold the woman came back and said "it can take up to 3 days for the experience to be updated" which has NEVER happened to me before - it almost immediately updated. I hope they have not changed how upgrades work, cause otherwise I am going to be very angry. So I'm going to check back in three days and call again if it still shows Bella experience. Very frustrating.
@@JosephDickersonUX hey there. This is not uncommon for MSC. The agent was incorrect… if you got the upgrade to YC, you get YC benefits… period. It does take a bit for their system to update itself. Mine sayid YC cabin with Aurea experience for almost a week and then I got an email where it was all correct. Please don’t worry. You got in… YAY!!! MSC has never been known for their great computer system or smart customer service agents.
@@Taste-Try-Travel Heh, as soon as I read your comment they sent me an updated receipt with the YC benefits. YAY!
Wow! I have had never had these issues with emerald! I just love princess!!
As we always say, sometimes it’s very hard to come up with 3 “dislikes” for a ship… after all, it’s a *cruise* 😊
Also, maybe....the water park supervisor was the one who dressed as steampunk humpty dumpty 😮😂
Excellent theory! 🤩
We are going on Seascape on the 31st. If steampunk humpty dumpty is there, I'm gonna start screaming!!! 😱 😂
Yes! Wouldn’t it be the most wonderful surprise?!?!!! 🤩
I cruised the Mardi Gras in July and they only serve bacon every other day, I was disappointed about that too. On the Celebration last year and Mardi Gras the sea day brunch was good, but the buffet on both were underwhelming
Bacon at a cruise breakfast is every person’s god-given right! Pretty sure it’s in the Constitution somewhere. 🤪☺️🤪
Ooo yes please tell me all about the MSC food I’m all ears
ℹ️🔜👂
Hubby and I thoroughly enjoy watching You Guys 😊 I do have a Yacht Club question, how far out should YC passengers expect an email from MSC in regard to their in room preferences?

@@MiAsWorldOfTravel hey Mia ❤️ Within 2 weeks of travel usually. On Meraviglia it was 3 days prior. Even if you don’t get one (which happens sometimes… it’s MSC 🤪) you can talk to your butler on the first day and they will accommodate everything for you 👍🏻👍🏻
@@Taste-Try-Travel Thank You So very much❤️ It’s crazy almost 30 cruises and first time on MSC and in the YC ~ so we are binge watching & Podcasting you guys like crazy 🤪
@@MiAsWorldOfTravel that’s so awesome!!!! What ship?
@@Taste-Try-Travel Looking so forward to it & Thank You Again 😊
Show producer: "Hey, let's revamp the Mystic Forest show! We can put Steampunk Humpty Dumpty on a wall background during the show!" Show director: "Great idea! Can't imagine how that would NOT work!" (LATER) Show producer: "Oh, crap."
They done went and messed it up! 😜 For the love of all that’s good in this world, Bring Back Steampunk Humpty Dumpty!
I'm curious - what flavor was that green cream filling?
@@annikki73 pistachio 😁😁😁
Love your boarding day outfit!
@@lauriharding6286 ah thank you so much. I’m trying 😁😁😁
Yes they want to please you but it would NOT please me if they allowed others to come in and when does it stop!?
I sure do not want to see guests in YC using the amenities that I paid a good price for. YC members can go to the "others" areas if you want to gather with "them". YC only for paying members PLEASE!
If you are still on Seashore, the best crew member we have found is Anil Kumar, from India. He has moved up in the ranks since we first met him on Davina. We last saw him on Seashore (11/22), where he is a very attentive Dining Room Manager. Hoping. to find Anil again on another cruise!
Those crew members really make the cruise!
Rice crispy treats yay!! Like mine with peanut butter. Looks like you two are having a great time😊My husband and I will be on the ship September 1st
Chris agrees… peanut butter on anything (Rice Krispies, toast, a shoe) is delicious 🤤 Have a wonderful time onboard!!!😊
the Egg has Scrambled …………oh where has he gone !
Ha!
We loved the intro. RIP Steampunk Humpty ❤
Steampunk HumpDump will Make a comeback!!!🤞
Lmao I love the beginning so Classic “is this beach made of salt?”
😊
You guys are “cracking me up” 😂
😊
Steampunk Humpty reminds me of the Mighty Mighty Bosstones member who just dances . I think he was a friend that wanted to be in the band but had no talent so he just said "hey, I can dance" LOL I love how things can become quests. Sometimes the search alone can become the greatest memory
Yes! Perfectly said! 💯😊
Hi Scrapbook Beth, did you grab any of that sea salt since there is none on board? We want Steampunk Humpty Dumpty, we will be not be denied, lol. Luv the Quickys keep em coming.
Yes!✊ It’s a grass roots movement! 🤪
How much did you two have to drink during recording haha?? Thank you you’re both funny! Cannot wait to go in two months!
Ha! Is it inappropriate to have 18 margaritas before filming?!? Unfortunately, no alcohol. That’s just us… aú naturel. 😊 Have an awesome time on your cruise!
Red tie… dog whistle? 😁
🙃
Hi I wonder if you can get an answer to my question. My wife and i are sailing seashore for the Superbowl (3rd time for Superbowl) 1st in YC, also booked on world america YC 2026. Is there a public place in the YC to watch the Superbowl or do we have to venture into regular public spaces?
@@scottmiskell1602 hey guys!! So although we don’t know the exact answer for that… I have to imagine that being YC, they will have something or provide a place for you where they are showing. It’s too big of event to just leave you to figure it out yourself. We will be in YC next month and I’ll write myself a note to ask and get back with you 😊
Do they have veggie burgers on the food trucks?
No veggies burgers at the food trucks. Not a lot of vegetarian/vegan options on the island.
Are sodas included in the package? My husband does not drink alcohol, but he loves his soda!!
Absolutely… this is what they say… “Cocktails, wine by the glass, beer, specialty coffees fountain sodas, bottled water, fresh juices and healthy smoothies (juice bar), new juice bar, mocktails and crafted cocktails by Mixologist Rob Floyd”
@Taste-Try-Travel thank you so much for the reply! Video was very helpful, this will be our first Princess Cruise!
Hey Kids, love your stuff! Thanks so much for filling this niche. We are booked on the Seascape for next year, a major anniversary trip for us, too, (30!!). Can't wait for your coverage later! Chris - You need better lighting. You are not well lit this time, even as pretty as you are 😊, lighting is important.
Hi there! Thanks for the feedback. We are working on a new camera so that it balances the light better for Chris… so frustrating that he goes so dark. What an exciting trip you have coming up!!
Question about the YC pool...Is the only way in and out of the YC pool ladders? ARe there any steps (mobility issues make ladders difficult). Also, what month did you do on this YC cabin trip? Room number? Thank you!
Hi there. We traveled the beginning of June 2023 for this trip. Our room was 16007. Loved being so close to the concierge and lounge… would definitely recommend that deck. Unfortunately the pool was fairly small and there were no steps down into the water, only ladders. There were steps down into the deck/shelf that surrounded the pool so you could put your feet in.
Thank you for answering. I appreciate it! We ended up booking a trip out of NY. Any info on where to stay nearby the port the night before and parking for the duration of the trip? I have to tell you…I was going to scroll by your videos, but something stopped me and I decided to watch. I am so glad I did! You are both down to earth and are hilarious as well! Thank you for being informative and entertaining!
@@AmeliaKlatt well we are happy you gave us a look!! We have cruised out of NY twice. Once we flew into the city and took public transportation from Manhattan to Red Hook Pier. The other we stayed at a hotel off the interstate in New Jersey and drove in (only an hour away from port) that morning and parked at the port. That was very easy. Not many hotels near the port and not much public transportation around that part of Brooklyn. I think Red Hook Lodge is close enough to walk but I’m not sure anything about it.
@@Taste-Try-Travel Thank you so much! I appreciate the info and your time! :)
Not gonna say our Butlers name but sailed on a ship that didn’t have a Venchi on board, asked our butler if they could give us a little bit extra since there was no Venchi on board and we missed it, he asked us our favorite flavor and disappeared. We didn’t think anything of it but 2 days later he shows up at our room with one of the MSC Voyagers Club string bags and he tells us to enjoy, don’t tell anyone, and disappeared. We open up the bag and inside is a 100CT sealed bag of our favorite Venchi flavor. Over a year later and we still have some in our fridge! They really go out of the way to ensure you have whatever you desire so long its within limits.
Ummmmm absolutely love this story!! Thanks for sharing
Loved the glockenspiel for our shout out❤
❤️❤️
I may have missed it but the Yacht Club restaurant on Ocean Cay is anything but typical cruise line style food. The Mahi Mahi and the Carne asada were great. And they have the lobster roll included and "the burger" is awsome. I was stuffed to the gills!
I can’t wait to try more of the YC restaurant food!!
There wasn't any breakfast pizza on Magnifica the beginning of June. Hopefully, they will have it again on our upcoming Magnifica cruise.🤞
Oh my heart is broken!!! Why does everything wonderful go away 😢😢😢😢😢
@@Taste-Try-Travel 😞
Thanks for this video! It's just fun to watch you 😊 I have to say that i like the food at the marketplace buffet very much. There are so many options and i like to taste from diffret things. On the seascape we were in the yc and i was a bit nervous becouse of the "fancy dinner options". Also I have to eat glutenfree.. and i can tell you they take perfect care about that. There was a personal waiter whitch kind of waited for me every day 🤪 to serve a extra prepared bread plate for breakfast oder explained the menu in the evening. They were perfectly competent in this point. Our kids also could get fries and nuggets all the time in yc - like you said. One time we went to buchers cut and the food there was also really very good. And of course we love the nachos at hola taccos 😍
Oh thank you for sharing. As we don’t have food restrictions, so it’s great to hear how good they take care of you!
That "Chicago Style" looks like an abomination! Yikes! The normal MSC Pizza truly is the best at sea. It is one of the things that I --always-- look forward to on an MSC Cruise. Like Top 5 things I look forward to. I can't say as I search out anything else food related on MSC. Which now that I am thinking about it, thats one of the main things I actually do on Carnival. (Guy's Burger at least once, Meatball Sammie at least three times, and the Pho at least once) but on MSC, I am just kind of a grazer at the Buffet. Although I did enjoy the wings in "Sports Bar" Not sure if it's something I would seek out though. LoL Now if you were talkin' drinks.... that's a Steam Punk Humpty Dumpty of a different color 🤣
Thank you for agreeing about that “pizza”. Seriously hope they aren’t moving in another direction!!
