After waiting an entire year, we boarded another cruise ship, this time on Independence of the Seas. It was a four night sailing during August 21-25, 2023. It took us a lot longer to the port as we drove from NJ to FL. This time we took 4 more family members with us to sail our first experience on a class ship. Watch the video to how fun Independence can be as the especially during the sail away party. Also check our packing video listed on the playlist. In addition we have Oasis Of the Seas playlist from our cruise last year. Hoping it doesn't take another year to cruise again.
There are five videos of Independence Of The Seas with the last one of our easy disembarkation. Hope you enjoy all the videos on our channel. Please check out our OASIS OF THE SEAS playlist linked above. As always, please LIKE and SUBSCRIBE.

Thank you for documenting your trip!! I’m taking my first cruise on this ship in December, and this video really helped.
I’m glad you found this video helpful. Be sure to bring a sweater, it’ll get chilly in the evening. Enjoy your first cruise! I’m sure it’ll be one of many.
Went on Indy the last week of September 23 with my cousin (and my brother and other cousin had their own cabin). We had so much fun 🤩 it was good times 🤩🤩😊
Sounds a great time! Always more fun with a few like minded people with you.
Excellent. And you look so beautiful
Hi Cynthia! Nice to have you around and thank you very much.
At the 6:45 mark you mentioned not being able to pre reserve internet pkg. However, I am going in Independence in November and I booked Voom & Stream last week for my cruise 🤷
It's 48 hours BEFORE the sailing reservations are closed. If it's already Friday and you're sailing on Sunday then you can't make any new reservations including internet. Though once onboard you can purchase the internet package via the RCL app. Enjoy your upcoming cruise on Independence!!
I just LOVE your eyes
🙌🏻🙌🏻
Did u do a group rate
You need to book 8 rooms to get a group rate. We spent about $500 per person in the exception, for my youngest, one who was in the room by herself, and she was the most expensive one, but it was a connecting room. Called RC several . Finding the right representative makes a big difference he or she can show you other options to make it more affordable.

You are so beautiful. How tall are you? I can’t tell who your Husband is. He looks very young. Lol
Thank you kindly. I’m quite petite under 5 feet😊. My husband is usually pops in a video or two. He’ll be in the next Independence of the Seas video.
What is your Nationality? Just curious
Both my husband and I are Filipino. Born and raised in US.
What were your cruise dates?
Our sailing was August 21-25, 2023. A month ago from today and I’m still missing Independence.
You are so freakin CUTE!
Thank you! I hope you enjoyed your cruise.
I'm probably very late in saying this, but 'Happy Belated Sweet Sixteen, Serena! 🎉' Katherine - it's always nice to see her make an appearance in your videos! She is so adorable. And, not to mention, so fortunate to be at the age where she can enjoy 4 ice-cream cones and totally not skip a beat...Lol!
Thank you for your kind words. Serena is thankful for your birthday wishes.💖 Katherine is my 'right hand man' and loves to to pop in a video or two. I asked her what she missed the most about the cruise and she the ICE CREAM!🍦
OMG this video u should make more content like this🤓🤓
Would really love to! Maybe one day.
Ahhhh walking past you with my plate of food in the buffet. Lol
What foods you enjoyed on Independence?
