    I absolutely love your attitude when it came to the rain and late bus.
    I’m forever telling my husband when things don’t go perfect while on vacation “always find the positive, it’s a blessing to be able to go on vacation when so many aren’t able too, and now we have a story to tell” 😊

    This is definitely the best content. Loved all the pre-cruise videos on packing and shots and seeing the cabin set-up. Even watched the big Q & A. If anyone wants the full inside story of going on a world cruise this channel has it!

    I'm curious about your arrangements for things back home. What about your bills and your house? Have you rented it out? What systems are set up to maintain your life on land? I'd love to see a little video discussing this side of your amazing cruise.

    • @livingphase2
      @livingphase2  9 місяців тому +2

      That’s a great idea. For us, we have a house sitter. All of our bills are paid automatically online. And our daughter lives close by so our housesitter can give her any pieces of mail that are important and she can handle them.

    Although there are several vloggers on board the Ultimate World Cruise, I like yours the best. I am a teacher and my husband and I travel on Royal on all of our breaks (winter, spring, summer). I wish I was retired so that I could take a world cruise too! We went to Aruba two summers ago and the snorkeling visibility above the shipwreck was excellent. Aruba has been my favorite destination since then. I think the visibility makes all of the difference. Thank you for sharing your experiences. We are having fun watching your vlogs.

    I've been to Aruba twice now, love Lucy's and the Paddock to sit and watch the views of the ships, sea planes, boats coming and going and yes, every time I've been to Aruba the sun set was amazing. Loving you world cruise videos, I'll be following. I actually like Bonaire more than Aruba, just a little more personal in my opinion.

      They do accommodate dietary needs. For instance, one of the members of our group does not eat red meat and she got another fish dish. Just talk to them and they’ll work something out for you.

    Hi, Mike and Nancy. UA-cam offered me your channel likely because I like cruise videos. I’ve always dreamed of a round the world cruise so I’m keen to follow along vicariously. By my count there are at least 4 other channels on board so you’ve got competition! That said, your content and delivery are the winners for us so I’ve subscribed and am looking forward to sharing the trip with you. Best wishes.

    @limarim 9 місяців тому

    re: Aruba, the ship is a good snorkling excursion when the weather is right but you do have to be a strong swimmer who can go far down and can hold their breath awhile. there's also usually more sealife to see! Mangel Halto and Tres Trapi are great spots too but you want to go early before too many snorkling boats scare everything away. Aruba's biggest tourist events are usually not the best places and does take a bit of research, and therefore a lot of people leave underwhelmed. a great island though overall!

    • @livingphase2
      @livingphase2  8 місяців тому +1

      There are four main segments and 17 mini segments. People can get on board on any of those mini segments. They just have to start at one port and end at another one. So unlike a Caribbean cruise, where you start and end at Miami as an example.

    Agree, that Aruba is not my favorite port. We have done the shipwreck snorkel. It was interesting but the currents were treacherous that day. First time we visited, we did a tour and beach day which was more interesting. Too bad the ship didn't go to Bonaire. The snorkeling in Boaire is the best I've seen in the Caribbean. Looking forward to following along. I so badly wanted to be a part of thos, but this wasn't the right time for us.

    • @livingphase2

    Great Video guys, I will be following you throughout your journey. The most I can do is 14 - 16 day cruises as I get so bored after a while, the 18 port days will help in the future. Keep it up! Fred San Diego Ca.

      Thank you. We’ve been on the ship almost a month, but it feels like just yesterday when we boarded.😀
