- In this episode, the ship is back in Nassau but (after much contemplation) we've decided to cancel our original plan of visiting Pearl Island, and turn it into a ship day! Join us as we check out the Serenity Deck, hop from water feature to water feature, send Dee down a waterslide, snag Lucky Bowl, peek at the chocolate buffet, get a backstage tour of the main show lounge, chow down on some steakhouse dinner, see the Vintage Pop show, and close out the evening with some 80s atrium party fun... and then... it's debarkation morning!!
Phase four of MegaVacay2020 is a four-night cruise aboard the Carnival Sunrise out of Fort Lauderdale! We sailed February 13-17, 2020 with stops in Half Moon Cay and Nassau, Bahamas. So far, we've completed a week at DisneyWorld as well as 7 days aboard the Mariner Of The Seas and 2 days aboard the Grand Celebration, and we're ready for more fun. What's next on the mega vacay agenda after this sailing? Two MORE cruises on two different cruise lines!

This was a perfect ship day with it all to yourselves. Private hot tub time, a special backstage tour, a delicious dinner at the steakhouse, and VIP seating at the shop. Wow! Thanks for sharing how awesome staying on the ship can be. I love how you can make the best of any situation. A big thumbs up from us.
We had a fantastic ship day, hah... we'll have to get to Pearl Island eventually, but I think we made the wise decision!! :P
Good call on cancelling that tour. I freaked out when you said it finished at 4! Ya don't wanna be a pier runner!! Your Australian wagu was in the shape of Australia!! So cool. Loved this vlog. Thanks.
We were so tempted to check out Pearl island but the timing just wasn't right, ha ha... we didn't want to be pier runners that day... or any day!! :P
Drummer from that band here! Glad you guys got to enjoy the show and the tour/soundcheck, great video!
That's awesome! We loved getting a peek behind the scenes. Thanks for the amazing entertainment and shows!! :D
Wow, so you followed your instincts to stay on the ship, ran into the cast manager and had a completely cool experience!! Talk about serendipity. Wonderful videos.
True! We ended up having a super chill fun ship day, plus some behind the scenes things that we might have otherwise missed!! :D
Literally binging on your channel now that we've committed to our first cruise on Carnival Sunrise........who needs netflix when you have Dee and Jay? We are sooooo excited! Thank you for sharing the fun....💛
Thanks so much! Glad to have ya along for our randomness!! :P
How disappointing for your change in plans but I saw your doubt in your mind when you were talking about that excursion in the morning. Always better to be safe and not stressed out about missing the ship. Hopefully you'll get back there again in the future! That backstage tour = AWESOME!! I'm so happy you were able to experience that tour. The Wagu steak is now one I'm looking forward to trying - it looked scrumptious! That bed MUST be comfy, for all the experience you have had with various cruises. I'm a little sad when I hear you talking about your next cruise happening in October...will this eternal cease of cruising ever end??! I sure hope so! God bless you both!
We were excited to check out Pearl Island, but that just wasn't the day for it, ha ha... maybe sometime when we get back on the high seas again!! :P
Great opportunity to do the backstage tour. Now I want some German chocolate cake.
We love seeing some behind-the-scenes action, even if we couldn't record the actual backstage area. Always a fun time, and getting to watch the sound check was super cool!! :D
This is such a refreshing video at this quarantined time. The Sunrise is beautiful next to my favorite ship The Victory.😊 Keep cruising and sharing those vids!!
We're excited to get back out there exploring again in the future, but at least we do have two more cruise vlog sets coming out in the not-too-distant future from our February travels!! :D
Yet another great VLOG!! We also had eaten at the steakhouse and sat at table next to your table. We love you guys! Can’t wait for more!! ❤️❤️ Jeffrey’s Cruises!!!
That was the most surprising steakhouse location for me, hah... I guess I was expecting it to be more where they put it on the Sunshine. It was interesting to see the space taken from the original MDR space, hah!! :D
That is the Norwegian Pearl. Artwork says it all! :)
Yeah, the gigantic pink pearls didn't register in my brain, ha ha... :P
I've just seen all of your videos!!! I LOVE THEM!! THANKS
Thanks so much! Glad to have you along for our craziness!! :P
I’m so glad I found your channel. Thank you for your great series on the Sunrise. I am taking my three granddaughters ages 3,6,9 on their first cruise on the Sunrise April 2021 and thanks to you I know we picked the right ship for their first cruise adventure. Stay Safe and Healthy and keep up the great videos
That's awesome! Hope you have a great cruise on the Sunrise!! :D
Your videos are so entertaining, i just woke up and i’m so excited to watch this :)
I Agree with you
What a fun treat and a great way the end your last evening.
Thank you guys for taking us along with you on your adventures. I’m really glad you decided not to do the tour. It was arriving much too late, Great choice to stay onboard. Stay safe and well you two. 💕
We didn't want to end up being pier runners that day, ha ha... :P
We think you made the right call, third party with that time was way too close 👍
Yeeeeeah, slightly too close for comfort!! :P
I’m so sad that another cruise is over 😢 great videos can’t wait for the next one 😀👍
Always sad for another series to end... two more serieseses to go, and then we've got to get back out there cruising again!! :O
I love it when Dee takes over the cam! You go girl!
Hah, she does that from time to time... she did a good bit of recording when we hiked up a mountain in Dominica... but more on that in our upcoming Crown Princess vlogs, haaaah... :P
That spinach salad at the steakhouse is my favorite salad on Carnival! My favorite restaurant on their ships, too.
The breakfast burgers definitely would be something that Anthony would LOVE!! Thank you so much for showing us all the stuff and things on this cool re-done ship! Wait...I just read the description of this video and it seems like it is not quite accurate; you don't seem to be in Nassau anymore in this one. Was this a test to see if anyone reads the descriptions?? :P I bet it was!! Mucho amore you two love Birds!! (see what I did there, Jay Bird!) Take care...not sure when I will be able to watch more of your cruising series but I enjoy them every time!
Everyone knows that towels aren’t that big! I was hoping to see some video of you as a Pier Runner, but maybe next time. I like all those backstage tours. We used to take the kitchen tour and the bridge tour when they were free….many moons ago! Our main reason for watching the videos is for the “In the Shower segment” Do you guys ever run Group Cruises?🐸
Nah, we aren't travel agents and really never felt like we wanted to "lead" a group, as it were. We love cruising with folks, and we just toss our schedule out there and say come on along, but we don't want to feel like "the entertainment", hah... We cruise because we want a vacation ourselves, and we like hanging out in a small group environment. Those gigantor group cruises scare my brain!! :P
@@parodeejay They scare me also, that's why I want you to do all the work😀 Do you publish your travel schedule anywhere?🐸
Our FB group in the announcement section, and the ShipMate app. That’s about all we keep updated. We make a “future cruise update” video every so often but they tend to get outdated quickly, hah...
Looks awesome. Sunrise is on the list when we get back to it
Absolutely fantastic vids! From start to finish. I need some more !!
I agree the time back from your excursion would have been to close for me too. Would have been stressed all day and that's not a fun time!
That's true... spending all day out worrying about getting back in time... not the most fun, ha ha... we had a nice ship day instead!! :P
Love your vlogs! They’re really helping me to get through not being able to cruise and everything else that’s going on right now. Can hardly wait for more! I’m booked for Mardi Gras 11/28, if all goes well. Hope to see you guys and say hello!
That's awesome! I'm not sure if I have you on my "list of folks to meet onboard" under another name, but I've added you on there now, hah. Fingers crossed, construction continues to go smoothly!!
I don't blame you for not taking the outing; it sounded really to close to problems with the time back!
We weren't feeling quite that risky, ha ha... probably a wise decision!! :P
Aw man a ParoDeeJay pier running addition would have made an interesting video. And with all the people who video tape pier runners, would have had so many angles. Next time. And that was the NCL Pearl, but the Gem is the sister ship so maybe Dee knows her Norwegian ships. Ha ha ha.
We should've done it just for the content, hah... we could've had some beautiful pierside footage of the Sunrise sailing away from Nassau... :P
Aww i was sad seeing the edit when you wrote your cruise was cancelled due to delays. The Norwegian looked like the Norwegian Pearl cause of the pearls as the art work lol 2 more cruises to go cannot wait!
We hope to at least sail the Radiance by the time it get to Galveston, but we shall see, hah... :P
Nice. Nothing better than get a hot tub all for yourself in a cruise. I think all that justification to cancel your excursion should have been taking into consideration prior to booking it...
You were so right when you said: "it will take us a long time to cruise with Carnival again."
It's always fun to have the uncrowded ship to play around on during a port day, ha ha... we were excited to possibly check out Pearl Island, but we'll file that one away for another time, hopefully!!
Ah, the great Jacuzzi debate! A hot tub is typically made of wood with a liner on the inside to hold the water, while a whirlpool is a self contained jetted tub. :)
Ahaaaaa, thankee thankee!! :D
Good bye. Sunrise! This is the very ship i intend to go on after tbe virus, God willing!
It's a nice one, especially with all the unique food offerings that we've never seen on a Carnival ship before!! :D
Was so happy to see the Victory, the Sky and the Grand Classica in port. I’ve sailed on all three and hoping to get back to the Sky in July. The Classica I’ll sail in February cause I live in Palm Beach County. And I will definitely book the new Victory for next summer. I miss cruising. How come you didn’t mention the other two ships you were going to cruise?
Oh nice! I'm sad that we lost our Radiance sailing, but I'm sure we'll sail her eventually, hah... I think at the end of this video, we just said we're off to the "next ship", ha ha... oops! But it would be 7-day MSC Armonia next, then 10-day Crown Princess to wrap up the MegaVacay2020 agenda!! :P
I didn't realize you were an entertainer on a ship. I knew you both had theater experience. Doesn't surprise me a bit.
Ah, just a guest entertainer I suppose, ha ha... we have both been involved in the old "Legends" show concept they did several years back where guests are chosen at karaoke, then end up in a small production show where you dress as a certain celebrity and sing one of their songs. Dee played Madonna twice and I sang Elton John once, hah... it was fun, but they discontinued that show a while back. :P
Tough but smart good job guys
Such sweet sorrow...
Did we hear correctly? Dee played Madonna on a cruise show?? I'm sure all subscriber would love to hear more about that and see pics too!! Stay safe❤️

We love you guys and you certainly do not have to explain why you chose to do something else.
Wise decision about your tour due to timing.
So glad I found your videos. We were on the 14 day Journeys cruise on the Breeze with y’all in 2018. We just binged watched all those videos. Y’all are the cutest! Random question 😂 what kind of video camera do y’all have? Looking to purchase a new one. Thanks and I hope we are all cruising soon!
Ah, that's awesome! We put our equipment list down in the description of every video just for the curious folks, hah... our main land cam is a Canon G7X Mark II and our water cam is an old GoPro Hero 5 Black.
Wow I was gonna say I think y’all would’ve ended up being pier runners on that one. We will be on the radiance next April for a Aruba trip. Can’t wait. Being y’all are diamond do y’all get free steak house?
Yeah, we weren’t trying to end up in someone else’s viral video running down the pier, ha ha... Diamond members do get a one-time free specialty meal, or every cruise. Just once ever, hah. We’re thinking to save it for something fun on the Mardi Gras if they’ll allow it!!
ParoDeeJay we r so upset our October cruise on mardi gras got cancelled. But I guess it worked out cause we r gonna go on princess for first time and go over to Cabo and puerto Vallarta. We have never been to that side of Mexico so...
Cruised the Victory in December and will be on the Radiance next April
Have A Happy Ship Day Kids Rock on
i cried when dee cried at the vow renewals! please... make it easier to follow your travels in order! and 100% show the menus longer... so i can pause without going back 10 times! mark weins was/ is my dude.... so i love your food menu content....and your new series around the world in 80 days. my girls love watching dee hunt for her fishey friends! most of all i love to see the respect you have for nature, exploring and eachother!
just wish I would brief sniplets of the songs of playlist productions
that Norwegian ship was the Norwegian pearl and there was a carnival ship next to the Norwegian pearl on the left because the carnival victory was on the left.
Oddly enough, the large pink pearls on the side didn't make me realize that it was the Pearl, ha ha... oops!! :P
I think you were right to forgo your Excursion. While I'm all for independently arranged excursions I really think people need to leave themselves.a comfortable cushion at the end of the Excursion to get back to the ship. And a half an hour is too close to final boarding
True... we almost went for it, but it was just a little too close for comfort, hah... dang! Maybe next time!! :P
What website did you book the Pearl Island excursion through? I’m suppose to go in Nov. (hoping we are cruising then 😩) and that sound like a nice trip. Love y’all videos. I’m living through them since everything is closed. 😂
If you're sailing most any line other than Carnival or Disney, you can find it through the ship's shore excursion desk, but we had contacted the company straight through their website. If you book direct, you do have to get yourself over to Paradise Island and back, whereas if you book through the ship it will include all the transportation. Hopefully we can check it out sometime when we're back in Nassau!! :D
ParoDeeJay I’m going through Carnival. Thanks for the information. I forgot traveling there is on my own too.
It was the Pearl.....my first 2 cruises were in the Pearl. ❤️
I guess the large pink pearls painted on the bow should have been a giveaway, but my brain wasn't thinking that quickly, ha ha... :P
Glad you guys enjoyed your cruise. Wondering how a person gets VIP seats at the show? Thanks for sharing
For that show, it seemed like it was the first few folks in the door. Oddly enough, the show wasn't very crowded that evening and they ended up having quite a few folks turn them down for the special tables. It took them a while to fill them up that evening, hah!!
Thanks for quick response! I actually saw the show on the Sunrise when she sailed out of NYC to Canada.
Awww sea Day
What day in October is y’all’s Cruise 🚢 we also love the steak house.
We were sailing the Carnival Radiance out of Norfolk for Halloween, but it was canceled due to them halting the ship renovation. We decided to rebook Halloween on the Grandeur of the Seas out of Baltimore instead!!
It is so sad we had have 2 cancelled cruise and we booked for Halloween on Norwegian Bliss out of LAX let’s see what happens
I found that the hot tub on Serenity was a little odd. Did you?
It looked super cool, but we didn't try it. Way up in the sky like that, ha ha... yow!! :D
Thanks for this one! Nice relaxing day! Curious how you were able to cancel your tour at the last minute? Did you have a charge of some sort?
Pearl Island had offered us comp day passes to come over and make a video, so we didn't have any penalty. I assume if you'd booked with them online normally and just chosen not to go, you wouldn't have gotten any credit back. It seems like a nice option if you have a good cushion of time at the end of the excursion, but it didn't work out that way for us that day! Yow!!
@@parodeejay oh cool! Too bad you didn't have the time. No pier running for you guys! 😉😀
The night before you get kicked off the ship is the worst.
What is your favorite cruise line? As I'm sure you can tell by my profile picture, mine is Carnival. Although I want to hear your take.
We've sailed Carnival the most, so it always feels like "home" to us, ha ha... Carnival brings the fun for sure, but we haven't found a cruise line that we don't like yet!! :P
That elephant could have been from Carnival and he was infiltrating the other ships passengers to show him how much for the better time they would’ve had on your ship
Ehh, I could tell he had a short weird little trunk... totally not my BFF elephant from Carnival!! :P
I wonder if the captain would give more consideration to not leave Diamond level passengers on the dock?
Eh, late-comers are late-comers and the captain has to stick to the schedule as best they can or pay extra fees to the port, from what I've heard. I wouldn't expect status to play a part in it if any passenger chose to do something risky, hah... :P
Next time we got to nausea we're going to make it a ship day.
did you lose any money or was it comp'ed?
We would have been paying for the transportation, but Pearl Island was going to comp our day passes. Sad to have missed out on that, but maybe next time we hit Nassau and the timing lines up a little better, we'll give 'er another try!!
UA-cam - Google , needs to relax on copyright stuff
If it's background music, they've relaxed their system a good bit. Back when we started, it was able to detect and claim almost any background song, hah. We're glad it's a little more free now, but if you make a copyrighted song the focus of your video, sometimes even if it's a cover band performing during a show, they can still claim your video. So we try to be as careful as we can!! :P
NCL Pearl?
Yeah I gotta with the Pearl too.
I was to lazy to remover it after I saw it on the vlog....LOL So how does it feel to have the house all to yourself again!!! Sorry DEE
Ship day? Boooooo
Hopefully you listened to the reason why we chose to make it a ship day before instantly commenting "boo"...? Doesn't sound like it!!
@@parodeejay I did Jay. I love all your videos. I was just hoping to see another part of Nassau.
8:06 Not sure about the other viewers but I'd rather see your ship day than excursion. lol
