I really like your Vlogs, because you're relaxed, and explain clearly, and fairly the Points of Interests that you are covering. I seam to agree with your assessments, and style of cruising.
Hi Guys. We were on the same cruise and have enjoyed the videos. Our experience was so great that we have booked another cruise on the same ship for the New England/Canada run in September. We noticed that the crew seemed a little understaffed compared to previous Princess cruises and the recent crew related cancellations highlight their issues getting sufficient crew for some of their ships. In spite of that, the crew does a fantastic job of keeping the passengers happy. We love our Princess. Keep up the good work and have fun.
Not a big fan of beaches. Like to walk around on the island and see what is there. My wife used to snorkel. As she got older she did it less and less. Have never been to Princesses Cays. Have seen quite a few of your blogs and will watch more. Back on the ship. Since you used Princess Plus Package, how did you like it?
We have been to Princess Cays a few times and have really enjoyed it. We really like the Princess Plus Package because it offer much more than just drinks like internet, tips and special dining options.
I’m enjoying your Princess cruise blog. Thanks for sharing! You mentioned in todays video a prior vlog you did about Carnival, Holland and Princess private islands. Which one is that? Thanks! Looking forward to the rest of this cruise!
You can find Mr. Canucks work of FICTION about how Carnival conquered Holland America at Half Moon Cay in our VLOGs at that location onboard the Nieuw Statendam cruises at Christmas and New Years. He mentions in passing a few times in the video but the main part of his imagination hits the camera around 8 minutes in this video.... ua-cam.com/video/sUWeNcr1v38/v-deo.html Thanks for watching the vlogs - more to come!
Thanks so much - when people ask why we started the channel and vlog, we say that we want people to see what day to day life is like on a cruise. We are so happy that comes through. 😀
Hope you get one of those floaties. We need to start an Amazon affiliate store with all our gear and toys. No firm plans on a live - but I’d we get the time and internet then we might try to do one from Italy in August, around Aug.22nd. It would be nice to give an update from Europe.
Ty for the vid. Princess Cays havent change much since 2005 for what i can see. Definetly the BBQ section is still the same! Inside the ship some new things. From what i have seen, you both had a great day! And btw....no Crown Royal? There must be other good options 🙂
Ya we didn't see a lot of change in the 7 years since we were last there. Luckily there was a little more drink options to distract from the lack of Crown.
Lol I think one of you called this place Princess keys from day one video. Did you order that food while you were on princess Kay to have it in your room by the time you got there?
YA we are bad with names and pronunciations! We try so hard but are so terrible - just wait until you see us in Europe trying to say location names! No we ordered the food once we were back onboard in our cabin - it only took 15-20min to arrive! Great service!
It’s part of the return of service. Many of the folks returning to ships are painters and tech workers to take care of exactly this. We noticed this on Holland America too. We boarded in Seattle and by the end of the cruise - entire sections of the ship were repainted blue.
Really enjoyed the video, looks like you had a great time on Princess Cays! Question about Good Spirits bar - did your drink package cover the cost? I've never been able to find a bar menu that lists the prices. Also, love the dress you wore to dinner Jill!
Amazon.ca www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B073WMYP6M/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 the Aqua Leisure 4-in-1 Multi-Purpose Monterey Hammock. It was about $24 CAD
Did you bring your own floaty and snorkel equipment? Great video as always. 🏝. I don’t think I have ever been asked about Canadian healthcare by an American. I would have picked the “does it get as cold and as much snow as they say”
Yes we brought the snorkel equipment and floaty. The floaty folds into a really small space and why we like it. You can find it on Amazon as Aqua Leisure 4-in-1 Multi-Purpose Monterey Hammock
Literally came back for this after binging all of your blogs from this trip. Do you have a video of the top (non clothes) products you bring on a Caribbean cruise? Thanks!
No video yet - but we do have an Amazon affiliate page on our website that shows all the things we bring on a cruise. Hope this helps. cruisingcanucks.ca/amazon/
Yes we did. We found it on Amazon. If you go to our gear page, and scroll to the bottom you can see a link to that exact floaty.... www.cruisingcanucks.ca/gear/
We walked up to a couple of loungers and laid there to relax. Usually one of us was with our stuff - but the odd time we’d both go into the water and stay close enough to keep an eye on our stuff.
Just throwing it out there - you guys just don’t seem as excited as in past VLOGS? You both make great videos but noticeably seem a bit less excited than the Holland trips or the earlier cruises.
Yes we were as excited - maybe just a little confused as we learning a new ship and new routine with Princess. Hopefully you will see in the upcoming videos that we had a great time and even found a few things that Princess did better than Holland America. We also did the LIVE last Sunday that provided a little more insight on what we liked and what we struggled with.
I really like your Vlogs, because you're relaxed, and explain clearly, and fairly the Points of Interests that you are covering. I seam to agree with your assessments, and style of cruising.
Thanks so much. We try to avoid hyping things and just be real - like anyone else that would be in that moment.
@@CruisingCanucks It shows and I like it!

I’ve never gone ashore at Princess Cays but I will on my next cruise. This is the best video I have seen on it, thanks
We’ve been there twice and always enjoyed ourselves. Snorkelling is good and the Princess Plus package works there for drinks.
Wonderful! Haven't been on a beach in a good while. Glad for you folks! 👍
Nothing better than a beach, palm trees and a reggae band in the background. 🌴
Enjoyed very much! Thanks!

Love the in depth VLOG style you guys have it really helps to understand the experience of cruising

Great video - as always. Thanks for the tip on the Aqua Leisure 4-in-1 Multi-Purpose Monterey Hammock. When are you doing your next live?

@@CruisingCanucks Awesome. I was thinking that you should create an Amazon store.

@@CruisingCanucks 😁
Great video! Did you guys rent the float or bring it along from home?
We brought it from home. Bought it on Amazon and folds up really small!
Lol I think one of you called this place Princess keys from day one video. Did you order that food while you were on princess Kay to have it in your room by the time you got there?
YA we are bad with names and pronunciations! We try so hard but are so terrible - just wait until you see us in Europe trying to say location names!
No we ordered the food once we were back onboard in our cabin - it only took 15-20min to arrive! Great service!
Great video. Surprised by the visible rust on the side of the ship…an age thing?
Yes. Later in the week we saw them painted away the rust spots.

Thanks. Yes the drink package covered every drink we had at Good Spirits.
@@CruisingCanucks Thank you!
Where did Jill get that awesome floatie? I live in Ontario!! 🇨🇦🌺🌴

What did you do with your bags and how did you claim your chairs in the shade when you were in the water?
We walked up to a couple of loungers and laid there to relax. Usually one of us was with our stuff - but the odd time we’d both go into the water and stay close enough to keep an eye on our stuff.
