      What's up Unc? Yea she act like she don't like it, but she secretly does. Lol you are absolutely welcome. We love a good cruise, but this trip may have us wanting to mix it up now. We love a good RIU, but they aren't all equal. We found that out in the next series we're getting ready to put out. *spoiler alert*

    Hey guys. Oh you made the full breakfast 🙌🏼. Oh. Look at this pool with the swim up bar and seating in the pool. One thing with them, there pools are 🔥. I was wondering if that was paper towel on your neck 😂. Your suit is 🔥. Cool down in the pool. Yes Mediterranean. Greece in particular. 10 minute walk? Oh hells no. That’s 30 minutes for me 😂😂. Tram please lol. I take it Dee cannot swim. Phil. Let Dee live. She living her best life ankle deep 😂. Y’all too cute. Yes we had that issue. One fella in our party of 8 had on a sleeveless shirt. They would not let us in the restaurant but they had outdoor seating so we ate there. Oh the club is packed. Last night. Thanks for sharing 🤗. Til the next adventure.

      Finally on the last day and I'm mad we missed out on all that the 2 days before. It was really good. Love a good swim up bar. Surprised Dee got in. Yea Dee was out there turning heads in her swim suit. We are still looking into the Mediterranean, we have a little time. The shuttle came in handy, especially with the heat. And you guessed right. She's been looking into taking lessons. Thank you for watching as always.

    Love your channel. We’re cruise lovers too. We’ve had loads of fun doing all sorts of things, meeting all sorts a people cruisers and cruise staff. We’ve had the good fortune of doing longer cruises 20+ days. Only problem has been noisy cabins - which we have complained snd been compensated for. Best cabins are ones with a balcony and cabins above and below and beside. Sure Inside cabins and window-only save money but I’m there for the experience. We like to fly red-eye first class to the port, now thats a money saving tip.
    Plus get to the port a day ahead.
    I even book a room the day before we arrive so I can check in to the hotel at like 9am, rather than have to wait til check-in time like 3 or 4pm - now that’s worth it.

    • @philanddeetravels
      @philanddeetravels  6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thank you so much! Yes, we love the bonds you build with the waiters and room Stewarts. That's what makes it so hard to leave. Ooohhhh 20+? I hope we're fortunate enough to get there 1 day. Our work schedule doesn't currently allow it. Love a balcony especially for longer sailings. Yes we always get to the port a day early. Except once and we regretted it because we were so tired. Good idea about booking a day early. Especially since most check ins aren't until 3.

      @@philanddeetravels we ended up going to the supermarket just outside of playacar too due to the high resort store prices. Paying local prices instead of inflated tourist prices was a massive help.

The waiters are all responsible for certain tables so they will be by to check on you frequently in the buffet. And you are very welcome.
