Interesting question, but they seemed to pretty much stay where they were..... I DID have to rearrange them at one point..... they were clinking through the night.
I’m heading to this cruise in October! I was hearing some mixed things about the jewel, glad to see this vid! Really excited about the food. How is the entertainment aspects?
OOohh! let me know how your cruise goes! Well, the entertainment was...... OK. I did include a brief video of Leo, one of the singers on the cruise. The comedian/magician, JP Parent was GREAT! They did advertise a musical show or two... We were going to see one show one night (I think a 1970s pop musical). It was cancelled for technical issues. They showed it again another night, but we didn't bother. Honestly, we were so excited about just being in Alaska, watching stuff from our balcony, etc, that we didn't pay a lot of attention to the entertainment, BUT, I would say that, in general, the entertainment schedule was not as "packed" as it was on our previous Norwegian cruise a few years earlier.
Hey there! Well, it was Alaska..... so it was generally cold, and it was rainy at times. Still, there were times that things weren't too bad. I would say, if you you are going on an Alaskan cruise, bring layers, and generally dress on the very warm side. No need to bring shorts. I often had on my winter coat, but it wasn't always needed.... if that helps.
We went on this cruise the end of September 2022. We loved it so much we are going again the same week in September in 2024. It will be our 3rd time on the Jewel, love the ship. The food is great, nothing wrong with it. We love cooler weather, so that isn't a problem either. The less sunshine, the better. Awesome video!
Very much appreciated the video. You sound like such a lovely man and your lady and you deserve nothing but happy cruises. Thanks.
Thanks Olwyn! Glad you liked the video!
How do the wine glasses not break in rough seas?

Me, too, October 3.
Thinking about taking the Jewel to Mexica this April. How was the buffet?
Good.... all of the food was good. The buffet seemed well stocked and the dining area had plenty of seating.
@@jimerado2150 Thank you. I did the Alaskian with my wife on the Golden Princess. It spoiled me for all future cruises.
Thanks again
What is the weather
First animal was a sea otter, then sea lions, and im guessing the last were killer whales! awesome
Hey, thanks Ollie.... I went back and re-watched, that makes sense! I was sort of assuming it was all the same critter at the time!

Weather looks nasty. Food looks cheap and nasty. Thanks for video though.
Hey Smed, thanks for watching.... I can see how Alaska might not be for everyone..... I have friends that only cruise to nice tropical places.
The comment looks nasty.
