Enchantment of the Seas Sep 21-28 Vlogs: Sea Day
Not a lot going on today. It's a sea day so mostly limited to activities and shopping sales. We did have a great brunch though! Tomorrow is a port day and promises to be much more exciting.

We are on Royal Carribean's Enchantment of the Seas again! This time we have an ocean view room. Two weeks prior we were checking out our balcony room. Pretty big difference in size and storage but also in price.

Today we are in Belize but only visit the port. We'll be there again in two weeks. My apologies for the weird coloration in the buffet area. Not sure what the camera is doing but wanted to include the buffet offerings anyway because that's a question I get (in person) often is about the buffet.

We ventured outside the port in Cozumel but didn't do any excursions. Mostly we were about the food and entertainment on ship because the weather was rainy. Plus, we are on this same ship with the same itinerary in two weeks!

Did not do alot on our sea day so this video is short. Unlike past cruises on RCCL, they asked we not film or photo any of the stage show. Too bad because it was good and a snippet would have been enjoyable.

Carnival Mardi Gras, Aug 2024 Vlog, Stayed on Ship in Aruba
Переглядів 545Місяць тому
Warning - a fast forward area starting at about 1 minute. We stayed onboard in Aruba and just relaxed and enjoyed the ship. We were saving ourselves for excursion at the next two stops! It's been a struggle putting together enough decent footage for these Mardi Gras vlogs because of the amount of music and noise on this ship. I noticed it then but had no idea just how badly it impacted my filmi...

You need to pan more slowly, it's very difficult to watch.
Thanks for the feedback, I'll keep it in mind.
Seems like the older ships don’t have many free complimentary restaurants.
they don’t. but they typically do a good job in the main dining room with traditional dining hours, etc.
We are thinking about cruising on the enchantment of the seas.
well, let me tell you. there is apparently a HUgE difference in rooms. i traveled with folks who had inside cabins and complained mightily about their rooms. and our balcony room not only had more storage and room, but it was just nicer overall. although and issues we had with oceanview were taken care of. i find it to be a very comfortable sized ship. the theatre has decent seating even if it’s not all modern fancy/pretty. lots of activities. love love love the solarium and park cafe. nice and quiet. buffet could get busy (go when it first opens) but the variety was good for a small ship. i hope you watch both series of videos so you can learn the most about the ship.
Awesome video
Thanks for watching!
Hi, dear I'm Saidul islam, a Digital Marketing Expert. I looked at your UA-cam channel. You started the channel in 2017 and have already uploaded over 219 videos. However, you only have 378 subscribers and the videos have very few views. I realised that although your content is great, the videos are not properly SEO and optimised. This has caused your channel to lose rank. I see many more problems. If you allow me, I can advise you in detail on how to fix your channel's problems and reach the content more effectively.
thanks for the feedback. we are happy just sharing our travels and hope others enjoy them
Love that shirt.
me too! kinda wanted to keep it but i didn’t.
Nice art. You old hippy you, gonna wear a tie dye shirt. 👋🇨🇦
right? love tie dye especially in pastels
I was on the Pride in February of 2024 for a Panama Canal cruise. It was outstanding and restored my respect for Carnival. I loved the traditional design of the ship. I had been on Celebrity two months prior, and it was nice. On Carnival Celebration in March of 2024, which I did not like at all. I already had the February, 2024 cruise booked or I would have canceled. I am so glad I did not. It was perfect from beginning to end.. no other cruiseline does the Chef's Table like Carnival, and the entertainment was excellent. I was on Norwegian in June of 2024, and it was not good. I think Carnival used their COVID void to improve upon quality and customer experience where Norwegian cut entertainment and food quality, and, especially customer services, to the bone.
it seems many cruise lines/ships have never been the same since the shutdown. free room service and second turn downs were the first to go and food & entertainment def reduced. what surprises me most is how things very from ship to ship.
Yep!!!That's where I going to be dec 28
i really enjoyed that ship! please don’t miss the comedy and Emeril’s Bistro is probably the best value of all upcharge restaurants IMO. oh, and have a birthday drink for me - it’s the 28th!!
I am all mixed up. Seems I am watching everything all out of order. Silly me.
lol, you don’t have to watch in order. i just edited the bonaire tonight. that’s the best one to watch
Everything looks so nice when it isn't so peopolly. I can't remember when I was last up and functioning at 06:30. I think it must be about 2 decades ago. 👋🤣
I liked the ship but it just has too many people. And the kids were out of control. I got up early to hide one of my special ducks shoes each morning. Then I would post a photo hint of it on the FB group page for this cruise. Other people started getting up early to look for my post to find the shoe! lol
@@VickieCarla Do people just let their kids run all over the ship?
@@seaside2001 not usually but they did on this one. they were young teenagers like 13-15 i'm guessing. they sorta ganged up and went to different floors each night and would knock on doors and run. i'm told they took over the pizza parlor one night and wouldn't let any adults in the area. they made a game of running security around looking for them. I witnessed one night when I went for ice cream that they had made like a dozen cones and then just turned them upsdie down and stuck them all over. They really should have been removed from the ship in my opinion.
@@VickieCarla Total pain in everybody's backside. Someone needed to talk with their parents. Not acceptable behaviour at all.
Can you explain how you got the cab and how much? It looked like you got him for a couple hours.
Here's how we do it....we wait a bit until after the mass exit from the ship. When the taxi area has calmed down and drivers are just waiting then we go to the cab area and negotiate for a specific amount of time (usually an hour). Most of the time we pay $50 or $60 after the driver having started at about $80. We also usually give a $10 tip. You can tell them the areas you want to see or leave it up to them. We've done this many times and they always seem happy to show off their area. In this instance the driver asked if we wanted to do any shopping and I said just a little. He allotted 15 minutes at this place that wasn't crowded so 15-20 minutes was perfect. We;ve done this type of tour in many different ports. Sometimes it's just too hot to walk around!
I am surprised at how good the food looks. I don't think Carnival gets much credit for the quality of their food. Love the coffee stations as someone who just needs some serious cream, it's perfect. I have never seen the duckie shoes--super cute. Love your balcony view its the perfect height above the water.
the food was really good on this ship. surprised me too! although, we did have good food 2 of the 3 times we were on the Paradise. the coffee was also good and i drink decaf!
Thanks for posting this video! We will be on the Constellation in April out of Tampa for a transatlantic (repositioning) cruise of 16 nights. This gives me an idea of the ship's layout.
we will be one it again in March. will be sure to leave it in good condition for you! lol
I am considering taking the very same cruise! :)
@@robbrown4621 Join us!
They have a good buyer for the shops. These are beautiful items. We always stay in the Casino.
they do! as a previous buyer for a chain of retail stores, and someone who held a position where i was responsible for developing products for a museum store, i can appreciate that as well.
This ship has many negative reviews but it looks very nice and clean to me. What was ur opinion? Great vlog.
well, we immediately booked for february sailing when we got off in august! we thought it was super clean, best crew ever, food good, and very relaxed. because it’s an older smaller ship, the rooms tend to be a bit more spacious than the newer ships too. their other ship, the paradise, is not as nice and is really more of a ferry back and forth between the bahamas and florida. be sure you are looking at comments for the islander only.
It seemed like the steakhouse had big plates, but very petite servings? Hopefully it was an optical illusion.
nope. wasn’t an illusion. they were huge plates. more like a platter and really dwarfed the food. but also, i asked for the smallest filet they had and jerry loves lamb chops which tend to be small. my baked potato looked like a giant in comparison to everything else!
Luv the duckies. Can't believe some cruise lines are against them. The ship is beautiful and the food looked so yummy I had to get something to eat lol
as far as i know only Disney has said no. some other lines have just voiced restricted to where they can be hidden but that’s the same as the instructions on the tags (no stores, pools, hot tubs, etc). Carnival said we’re all about fun so go for it!
What are the ducks for?
My sister is on a Princess cruise to Hawaii. They were delayed boarding while the crew looked for a missing passenger from the previous cruise 😳 They never found the 72 year old man, who was traveling alone 😢
I heard about that. so sad for his loved ones since it sounds like it’s unlikely they will ever know what happened. from what i researched there have been 18 over boards so far this year with an average of 24. for millions of cruisers for year i guess its not bad but the not knowing must be awful for family.
Ya gotta admit, it is pretty cleaver marketing when the cruise line can get you to advertise for them, and have you pay for the privilege by buying all their branded merchandise. lol
i’m old enough to remember when branded merchandise was “free” - given away in hopes you would wear their advertising. Now you might get a complementary pen.
@@cruiserella2899 lol That's true! Now that you have reminded me, it was like that.
$25 for a burger and no fries 🍟, it better be the best burger ever.
I want to hop in the lazy river --looks like a good one. Really pretty resort ⛵
Love your vlogs. My husband and I sail and travel a lot. We love the Caribbean
The Caribbean is amazing! And, just subscribed to your channel,
So Beautiful 😍 Happy birthday again Jerry. So funny to see a cruise ship practically parked on your beach ⛱️
It was!
Wow that's a beautiful resort and a fabulous view. Hope Jerry enjoyed his birthday. Not sure why it tickled me so much, but loved seeing you out on the balcony enjoying your real coffee ☕ I would be doing the same. Hope the lazy river was fun, have never done one, but it seems like a fun way to stay cool❤
it was beautiful and so relaxing. i will have some video of it later i think. i took a lot! lol, i almost cut the coffee time out but decided to keep it real since its a vlog.s
Long travelling day.
it was brutal. after missing our flight in Miami, the “new” flight was delayed 6 times and changed gates 5 times. the Miami airport is to big to keep moving from gate to gate. there was a fire causing smoke at the nassau airport runway.
@@cruiserella2899 All very strange I would say. Must have been some mechanical issue behind the scene. Racing from one gate to another is fine is you are an 18 year old sprinter.
Hey, My name is Abu Bokkur and I'm a UA-cam growth specialist. I have been following your UA-cam channel for some weeks. I can see your video quality is excellent, and your thumbnail designs are eye-catching-clearly, a lot of effort goes into each upload but your channel growth is not good. you do not get enough video views and subscribers. So, If you have permission, I will share some tips that can help your channel video views and subscribers increase. Have a nice day!
Just wait until you see the grounds of this resort. They are beautiful.
lol, commenting to myself since i seldom get comments in this channel.
I am a member of the Piano Barbarians, and know alot of the Piano players. I wasn't there on that cruise. I will be on the Pride next May.
so it was a group??? do you all play piano or just fancy piano bars?
@@cruiserella2899 its fans and piano players, i play Harmonica and sit in.
@@packyrat well it sure looks fun!
I’ve never seen a tub on any ship. We will be in the 12th floor with a balcony in November 17-24. I thought this ship only had showers?
we’ve had quite a few with tubs but shower only is def more common.
@ our bathroom was terribly small. Maybe because we booked at last minute.
So glad to hear from you!
thank you. we were without internet for so long.
I’m glad to hear from you Vickie and to know that you didn’t have much damage. I knew you were in the path of Milton and was worrying. Take care!
Thanks so much!
No, I didn’t hear the language…so no offense…oh, I just realized that you would have caught it in editing and deleted it duh 🙄 I enjoyed watching very much thanks
i kept turning it up during editing but his words didn't come through luckily. I always tell people I'm not offended by cuss words because I lived in a commercial fishing town, lol.
How was the noise? Any disturbances?
I don't recall any issues. A perfect cruise!
Must be first class
yup, we typically don't but at our age, and on such a long flight, we thought comfort would be important.
We go in December and I’m so excited!! Thanks for the videos 😊
Have fun! we are going again in February. such a relaxed vibe.
Was it hot at night?
typically it’s cold in a cruise ship. i’ve never had a hot room. there is a thermostat in each cabin.
Hey girl. How did you come through the storm? Hope everything is OK.
about to write a community post now. thanks for asking!
I have a friend who lives in Belize. Establishing a plantation/farm. It is a beautiful island, but if you have been there before you don't really need to go again, especially on a crumby weather day. It is so hot there when the sun shines. Hot & humid, but you are used to that, I just melt into a puddle.
Enjoyed seeing this! We are going all the way through the canal next April. Have you done that and if so, do you go though the lake and locks on the other side or go through a different lock? Saw the Orincess in a different place.
thats’s cool! i think i might like to do that sometime even though it does involve airfare. we’ve done the partial twice (does that count as a whole? lol) once on Emerald Princess and in this ship the Carnival Pride. Princess had excursions into Panama, Carnival did not. we are going again in January on Norwegian Jewel but again a partial.
Thanks Vickie. This was interesting. 👋
One benefit to posting late is that it's like I completely relive it again!
Yes…I hear the wind!
that's why cruising in January is less crowded and cheaper!
I am confused.......no I am not, just noticed its from January. Was your first meal chicken or fish. Looked good.
you caught me! i did upload out of order. I have two more "old" cruises to edit and then I will do our recent August cruise. It was most likely fish. I am a huge seafood fan. I usually only order chicken if I am not feeling great or I don't like anything on the menu. The food was surprisingly good! This is an older, smaller ship and Carnival isn't known for food but this crew did a great job! Also, you may find some of these videos shorter or covering less detail than other cruises I've filmed. That's because we traveled with family and spent time with them and wanted to be respectful of their privacy.
@@cruiserella2899 Yes I remember you mentioning this trip.
where is that fish feeding?
the boardwalk in key west. we’ve spent the day just walking that board walk and stopping for shopping, drink and eats while feeding the fish from a restaurant or watching the commercial fisherman, it’s good cheap fun!
Formica counter tops? 60's
pretty standard cruise ship counter tops whatever it is. gotta be able to wipe it down and disinfect
May I ask what the average cost for this room would be??
Lots of factors - timing of booking, time of year, itinerary, etc. But this is what we paid for the two of us: Cruise Rate $3,034.00 Taxes, Fees & Port Expenses $236.08 Total Cruise Charges $3,270.08
@@cruiserella2899 Great...that's very helpful. Thank you! :o)
Thanks for the tour…I have that exact room booked for next year 😂😂😂
You'll find it comfy and spacious. Except for the bathroom - that's small.
The bird watercolours are beautiful.
I think so too! If it werem't6 for the artwork, I wouldn't have done that last video.
