    I am amazed by the number of people who seemed to be glaring at you for vlogging, or at least that is how it appeared (especially in the food line at the ice cream place). Definitely nice not to see foolishness and nonsense happening. Glaring is a minor offense.

    First of all, I want to say, I love watching you, Tony! Second, you won’t find anybody more patriot about my country than me. However, if it’s a rule on a ship, not to hang any item yes, there’s a reason for it, and we should respect that rule. The one character about an a true American is his Character of respect for all.

    There are not many Minkes left (northern minke whale: 500,000 in 2013, 200,000 today)😢 we have hydroponic farming and they’re a rich country, they don’t need to eat whale. And it’s not a popular meat anywhere, it’s pushed on people like it was pushed on you, it just sustains an old industry. Iceland just banned whaling. Congrats Iceland. #teamorcas
