This video was great, lots of info. We are doing the same cruise March 2. You seemed to be able to get on everything or access everything with no big crowds. Did you just pick the right times to film? No big crowds compared to our 2 previous cruises.
Thank you! Our ship was fully booked so a lot of people on there but never really had an issue with big crowds other than the first day we left the ship. We had 7 of us for dining at the windjammer and we always found a table within 10 minutes max to fit us all. Quicker if it wasn’t all of us eating as well. Everything just was managed really well. We waited a while for the lifts at times but took the stairs if we could as well. Love ovation of the seas!
Carnival is a great cruise line too! We have been on a 3 day sampler cruise with carnival on the spirit ship and loved it but this ship was next level and the food didn’t compare.. I’m still dreaming about that cheesecake! Oh the slapping game is a regular thing around here 🤣
Deck 5.. you won’t be instructed by the tenders and hopefully no other obstruction for you. Enjoy the ovation it’s a beautiful ship. Where are you travelling to?
The main food we had was free. So anything in the windjammer/cafe 270/fish and ships were all free. When we went to chops grill and Jamie Olivers that was paid. We purchased a dining package prior to boarding which gave us 3 select restaurants and that included a 3 course sit down. The package was $226 each so about $70 each per dining. They do have free sit down restaurants which is called my dining and you are allocated a particular deck your restaurant is on but we didn’t do that
How beautiful are the towels in shape of animals, cool 😎, the food looks wonderful too, any alcohol 🍸 😋? Everyone enjoyed 😊 Wish I have robot make us drinks at home, lol 😅😊
We definitely were able to access what we went to. We did go early to any shows so we could get good seats but still Would of got a seat if we didn’t. Otto is very cute but don’t be fooled by his cuteness 🤣
Looks great but I don't like heights, especially when you said the glass you can see through 😮😅😊 Troy and myself haven't been on ship to nz but my parents went on dawn Princess 18th march 2014 as they got photos official ones 😊 As you took sea sick tablets, do they work, no one got sick? Was it smooth or rough travel?
Shane doesn’t like heights either but was ok with this! We have so many sea sickness tablets left over because we didn’t need them! We only had one day where it was rough but wasn’t ooh bad
Man the cruise vlog is so excellent y'all are having a good time and man theres no blue skies every time it seems like you always have like gloomy days and hopefully the weather is warm up there. Yes love it.
So disappointing that you will have to miss going through Milford sound 🤦🏼♂️. We went through it and it was incredibly beautiful. We went on radiance of the seas and from the looks of it, the ovation looks like it has a lot more things to do and better food!
So so devastated we missed the sounds. It has been on my bucket list for years. The food was so incredible and such a variety. We are all missing the windjammer
Washy washy lady is my favorite!!! 😂
I’ve seen it all over tik tok and it gets me everytime 😂
Miss your vlogs Kristie! Hope you're doing well ❤
Our favourite too
Ooohhh excited !!! 🎉

We were going to book Carnival next year and now I want to book this cruise. The cheesecake looked next level. The slapping game cracked me up! 😅

what deck are the tenders on please? We have booked balcony on deck 7 and hoping there is no obstructed views:) thanks
Deck 5.. you won’t be instructed by the tenders and hopefully no other obstruction for you. Enjoy the ovation it’s a beautiful ship. Where are you travelling to?
Thx for that 😊 Travelling to New Zealand
Food looks nice 🎉 glad to see you all having a wonderful time enjoy the break away from work life
Oh the food was the best! So spoilt on the cruise
Sorry if I missed it but how much do you have to pay for the food on the cruise? I’m really enjoying watching your cruise experience, thanks !

We loved the towel animals.. they did a workshop on how to make them but we missed it. I need a robot at home too
Where can i find the vids of activities you done such as the scavenger hunt?
They will be out very soon!

Thanks for the reply. That's great to hear. You seemed to be able to access everything. Little Otto is gorgeous by the way!
We definitely were able to access what we went to. We did go early to any shows so we could get good seats but still

Great vlog Rhiannon ❤ did u get sea sick at all?
We did not get sea sick at all which I was happy about.
Those magnetic hooks are an awesome idea!!!!
The best!! I’m so glad I got them as they were game changing!
no laundry on board ,
what a rip off , so you can't iron in your room as well 🤨
Total rip-off. Makes it hard and costly for families. You can hire an iron from them but I’m not sure on cost.
