I took my 1st ncl last month to mediterranean and I'm now hooked. Great video.
Who have you sailed with in the past?
Just found you. I love the Joy.
Great program,Excellent GF
Awesome! Thank you!
Love your background music for the embarkation, really suitable for such an epic event 😊
Only cruisers know this feeling ☺️
Just found your channel… WHERE HAS THIS BEEN ALL MY LIFE?!! Amazing, original and refreshing #Subscribed
Thank you sooo much! ☺️☺️☺️
And welcome!
Great content
@@reneearku5097 happy to hear you enjoyed it Renee! Thank you.
Super curious to see this one!
Super curious to hear the comments, I'm proud of this episode. 😎
I loved the spice rum mojito. My 1st. I was surprised I liked it. Try it
I'll add it to the list 😄
So happy to see you and Meli are a couple now. Y'all make great travel partners. My mom's birthday is also on Valentines Day. I discovered your vlogs after watching TH-cam vids on Norwegian Getaway. We booked our first cruise in Sept. 2024 in Greece/Turkey and your vlogs were very informative. Continue your travel adventures with Meli and look forward to more of your vlog. Cheers!!!
I know what itinerary you're doing, I looked at it several times. You'll have so much fun! Thanks for the support! 😎
Very nice to meet you and Meli on my first cruise. Your Vlog was part of the inspiration to take my first cruise. Now I am hooked. Great content put me down for 71 drinks for you both. That Stella goes down easy.
Not 71 each I hope? 🤣🤣
Nice to meet you too Keegan, it wqs great chatting with you!
Late watching one of your videos here. Love the production value and the dry sense of humor you have. Many vloggers just pump out quantity over quality. Not you! Background music is always first rate as mentioned earlier.
Thanks Todd! Don't underestimate how motivating comments like yours are to me. Especialy when you also mention the music. I challenged myself never to use the electronic beats music everyone uses. I often go through hundreds of songs before I find the right one. Anyway, thanks once again!
@@BRAMSEASTHEDAY Your attention to detail is much appreciated.
You seem really happy and there’s an increased energy to this vlog. I wonder why? 😀 Really enjoyed, looking forward to the next one
Thanks Chris, and yes, I am! 🥳🥳🥳
NEVER enough! I can't wait for the next one! So you speak french! Alors laisse- moi te dire que tes blogs sont pour moi, meilleurs qu'une série NETFLIX!😊
Meilleurs? Vingtur c'est trop ça! 😂
😂😂😂😂😂

Thank you! 😊
so glad to see you back , Happy Belated Birthday
Thanks Timothy! ☺️
Wow! Melli got a promotion! ❤. Congrats!
I watched your video, sitting at the Fort Lauderdale airport, waiting for my flight back home, after a week on the NCL Joy, two weeks after you. It already brings a lot of nostalgia. I can not wait to see the rest.
I had dinner at Le Bistro last night. I recognize a few people working there. I had the same lamb dish as Melli. So Yummy!!!
Can’t wait for part 2.
Thanks for doing this.
Ben
PS: I am on the same page as you about entertainment. It was sub-par.
Promotion 🤣 lol I'll use that against her! 😉
Hi Bram. Great video! Thank you! Today I booked the NYE cruise on the Joy. Then I went looking for recent videos to see what it looks like after dry dock. I'm so glad that I found this video! I usually cruise on Carnival, so I'm really interested to prepare myself for the NCL experience. (I cruised on the Bliss in 2018 or 2019 for NYE. I thought it was a beautiful ship, but a little sedate for me. I'm older now and married, so let's see how I feel about the Joy.) Thank you again. I'm about to look for the next videos!
Thanks for the support! Part 2 of the vlog will be out next Saturday, it has all the new stuff featured. Hope you like it! Let me know after the cruise how it compared to Carnival to you. 😎
11 night cruise. 70 some drinks seems low to me. 140 to be conservative with some off days being on a cruise for that long with few port days in my experience. Mostly drink beer though here. Keep editing this as I reflect on my past cruises...
11 a day average? Could be. But I was sure my gf wouldn't go over 5 gin tonics per day. Some days yes. But not 11 days in a row. It was cheecky of me letting her bet first 😜😜😜
@@BRAMSEASTHEDAY It is tough to predict for sure. Our last 2 cruises were 12 and 11 nights. Stayed in our cabin the final day on both as burned out seeing people and drinking with the ship fully booked. Eating in the cabin only. How people go on longer cruises is beyond me. Actually, did a few b2b's after the restart for 14 nights as they were so cheap and under capacity, but don't ever seeing that happening again. Took a few shorter 4 and 5 night cruises closer to the restart where you had to wear a mask onboard from nearby Tampa as it was cheaper than staying at home and less than half ship capacity. Have a Princess 10 night cruise booked in October that I am about to cancel as reality has set in before final payment and not worth the higher price to me after getting bargains in the recent past. The under capacity sailings spoiled me also. Loved NCL back in the SS Norway days, but lack of traditional dining now turned us off. TMI, but being an old fart having done our first cruises on NCL in the 90's it was what we got used to. Love the cheecky phrase!
Great vlog Bram as always. We cruised on Joy a few years ago and loved it. Not sure about the cutbacks as it seems everything is being scaled down like the quality of entertainment...You both seem more than capable of making your own...😊
Thanks Steve, and yes we manage without a doubt. But I would rather have them up the price than lower the deal, you know? But still, great fun ☝️
I wish it was timestamped on subject matters. Just a suggestion with it being so thorough and lengthy. 😊
Great comment Courtney! I'll get on it! Thx 😎
Really interesting to watch this series Bram, I saw this repositioning cruise for the feb half term and was very interested - it seemed an extremely good price. Unfortunately we already had another trip planned which we couldn't really move so look forward to seeing how you got on with all those sea days. Cheers
Yes it was "an offer I could not refuse" 🤣
another great vlog Bram! I'm a gin & tonic girl too.
Sana how many would you drink in 11 days? It's a scary idea to guess actually 🤣
maybe 33 at most. I'm a light weight though. Meli can double that
Great video, as always.
Thank you!
Very good video, as always! It looks like fun on that ship, especially the food. Hey, it was good that you clarified that people over 60 don't have to be in bed by 10. I am always worried about not having night parties or night clubs on the ships I sail on and I am in my late sixties (don't tell anyone).
🤣🤣🤣
Well, nightlife was alive and kicking, no matter what age 🥳
Great video, Bram. You’ve brought back some good memories of the same trip on Encore a few years back! Don’t know about you but we much prefer Breakaway class ships to Prima. Looking forward to Part 2 👍🏻
And my guess is 80+ 🍸 (all sea days, 😂)
Couldn't agree more about Breakaway class ships!
The bet was 65/66 EACH!
I "joined" your channel when you were visiting the Getaway, and after not to Long went on the Getaway myself as my first ever cruise, is thank to you that I knew the interesting part of the ship especially entertainment, like Syd Norman and the Headliners. Did not loose a day.
The Joy looks very similar, so I'm curious on how this vlog will come along and if you will get "bored" on this much sea days.
Hello Mauro, researching a possible next cruise? ☺️
I was on this cruise, I passed your door lots…very nice!
Hey Louise, next time.say hi, I love meeting the person on the other side of the screen 😎
@@BRAMSEASTHEDAY most definitely! It looked like you had a great time, like we did 😄
77 drinks ... We leave for the Joy in 7 weeks :) look forward to your videos
So 7 per day, each. Noted! 😅
We'll be boarding the Joy on June 2nd. Can't wait!
Have a great cruise Tony!
We love the huge Observation Lounge on the Encore. But there was a good 10 night Alaska on the Joy so we booked it for 2025. I’m concerned the revised Observation Lounge in Joy will be way too small and crowded now.
Your concerns are just, I'm afraid. I'll share the area in the next episode but if you see it on the map, it's safe to say the Joy lost 25% of the area before. The lounge was pretty much packed all through our Transatlantic sailing...
Back a broad. I mean back aboard. ha ha ha. Glad to see you are still making videos. Invest in two mics it will help with muting the background noise. You know me always throwing my two cents in. How long did you stay in Miami?
Your 2 cents are very much appreciated! Still trying to figure out how to combine the mic receiver with the 360 camera without having to drag around a full mini production team 😅😅😅
We were in Miami for 2 hours and 45 minutes. Taking 12 days off also means doing overtime at work before and after. The unfortunate reality 🤣
@@BRAMSEASTHEDAY I think they are bluetooth cordless now. I see them on several You tube channels. It really brings the production up several notches. Much clearer audio. By the way I never miss an episode. the other viewer was correct, your music was great. You do a great job editing.
I know but still, wireless mics need a receiver. Not ideal to attach to a gopro. And the ones that are seperate need a ton of editing getting the timing right. I'm aware this would improve the audio, I'm just ignoring the issue 🤪 I'm so far behind on editing as it is. Thanks for the support and welcomed opinions Jack! Comments like this improve my videos 😎
Is there a next video after? Very interested in seeing the rest of the Joy.
Most definately. Working on it for over a week now. Asap! 😎
@@BRAMSEASTHEDAY can't wait!!!!!
@@BRAMSEASTHEDAY Thanks looking forward to it!!
I was hoping to get it out this Saturday but I probably won't make it. Next week for sure 🙏😎
another great video. you have changed, you used to go to h2o what happened all inside bars hmmm did you quit smoking lol can't wait until the next one. Kevin.
Kevin the weather was not exactly Spice H2O-like 🤣🤣🤣
And smoking is not allowed anymore on the Joy's Spice btw
Where did they move the smoking area to?
74 for 11 day cruise
What do you mean?
Where are you? When will we see your next vlog?
Still a lot more work to do Vingtur. Asap!
Hello where to buy your merch ??i like the hat
It's custom made. I'll work on putting it online!
You seemed to "feature" yourself more than the ship or your adventure! So I find this video to be mundane and doesn't get me excited to sail the NCL Joy again (We sailed her April of 2023 for 11 nights). Just being honest as we are avid cruisers on NCL and Royal Caribbean.
Chris I hear ya, and yes, you are correct. I document MY experience onboard. Not here to showcase the NCL Joy (I don't work for the cruiseline, and paid in full, myself). The vlogs are me cruising. Most people (98.1%) enjoy it specificly for that reason, but I can understand it's not for everyone. I appreciate you taking the time to share your thought nevertheless! Keep cruising Chris! 😎😎😎
@@BRAMSEASTHEDAY Keep it real like you are doing! Love seeing your reactions to different things onboard.
Looks boring too long at sea !
I agree. But is it? Here to answer exactly that Daniel!
