There is nothing like that boarding excitement!
Been so excited to watch this. We sail on the Spirit next summer and Dee and Jay always do a great job of getting us excited and prepared for our cruises!!!
So happy to start this adventure with you. Look forward to every day.
Love love loving your videos. Feels like I am right there with you. I will continue to live vicariously through you until my next cruise on the Splendor later this month. Dee's Alaska outfit video was so helpful. Glad to see someone likes taking pictures of their food as much as I do. Jay's quirky comments about everything are such a HOOT! It's like he is looking out through the eyes of a child and just says the first thing that comes to his mind. Keep it up! Hope to meet the two of you one day.
I'm so excited to watch this series, I'm going to be on the Spirit to Alaska next June. Really like your videos.
Kinda love all the quirky themes on this ship. We are looking at sailing Alaska next summer on here or maybe on the luminosa. Thank y’all for sharing y’all’s adventures. 🚢
Wow! Absolutely loving you guys, this is a great, I feel like I am there with you. Loving the caper game, my son is the guy that came on first. Really looking forward to your next videos and any you do of the shows, it’s the only way I get to see him. The ship looks great with lots to explore, can’t wait to see what you get up to on sea day. Have fun!
thank you for sharing. Spirit looks like a fun ship.
Great video and tour of the ship and port. We're sailing the same 8-day cruise on the Spirit on 10 Aug. This will be our first Alaskan adventure and we can't wait!! Thank you.
How fun to see this ship through your eyes! We really do love that Spirit class layout!! Thanks for the new series (well, new to me anyway!)
Hey y'all. Loved this video. Can't wait. This beauty coming to Mobile October of 23, and we're on her early December. It'll be our 1st balcony with 2 of our teenage grandchildren. Y'all have us anxious already. Thank you so much 💓
Spirit was my most recent cruise in March, great seeing this blog and all the memories we had on her!
I'm so excited for this series! I cannot wait to relive my trip. It was so wonderful meeting you guys and hanging out. 😀
Morning! Love when Dee first steps on a ship. Really like the Blue Iguana for breakfast (I should say pre breakfast). Lol. Can't wait to see all your adventures.
Spirit is such a beautiful ship! We sailed on her out of Jacksonville in March. I miss that ship! Boarding the Sunshine in September.
Thank you so much for this preview of the Carnival Spirit. I will be boarding her in 35 days! We have almost the same itinerary except we dont go to Icy Straight Point. On this trip we are also taking my stepson Mark on his very first cruise. So excited and looking forward to the videos in this series. I love all of your adventures! From a Virginian as well, Sandy
It was nice meeting you two on the cruise. One day I was just searching youtube looking at cruise videos, I think about two months ago and came across your channel. So funny to meet you in person on the Spirit. My husband and I went on our first cruise on the Spirit back in 2004 and then we took a 10 year break from cruising. We started again in 2014 and have not stopped since. You guys are so nice in person just like on your channel. Thank you for taking a picture with me. Happy cruising!!
I'm going on my 1st Alaskan cruise in 35 days and I've been enjoying all of your past Alaskan cruise vlogs, so it's great that you're starting a new series.
Too bad you're not on my cruise so I could meet you guys but thanks for all of the great vids. Stay safe!
GREAT complete well done video. I felt like I was there with you!!
So cool, we are booked next July on the same ship, can’t wait.
I appreciate your vlogs. My next cruise is Oct 2023. It can't happen soon enough! I am watching your vlogs until then to pass the time. I went back and watched your 2019 Alaska videos too with Ricky & Laura and Favor & Rob.
Took the Spirit to AK in 2006. The captain said it was his last sailing as he was retiring (after getting married to his Polynesian bride). Said he would make the trip worth while as he was taking us closer to the glaciers than he had ever gone. Thought it was part of the schtick but when we got there all the crew came running out to take pictures so maybe it was as he said. Oh, and took another Carnival cruise in 2009 to celebrate daughters graduation, hearing ship announcement it was the same captain. Apparently his marriage didn't work out and came back to work.
Love the tablecloths! Sailed the Spirit 9/5-9/12/2001 from Seward to Vancouver. We were stuck in Vancouver from Wednesday thru Friday due to 9/11. Very scary time but Carnival took very good care of us. Didn’t get home til Sunday due to no flights.
Thanks for showing some of the casino slots available! Love casino footage
I love the old skool non-reno'ed cabin! The red carpet and the old CCL logo trashcan! I miss old CCL!
We are going on our first cruise, Bahamas, in Oct. Now we are talking about Alaska next and I said “yup I know parodeejay will have some videos on Alaska” hahaha. Love your videos!!
So fun!
Looks great! I snagged an 'interior' on deck 4 with a huge window looking out at the lifeboats, lol. But you can also see the water, and at least get some sunlight in there. I'll be aboard in June, 1st time in AK, excited!
Oooh, yeah! We love those 4K cabins that used to have the French doors. Now they have the huge windows!! :D
Cant cruise for a while thank you, your videos make me feel like im cruising.
I'm looking forward to the Spirit in January the only other ship I've been on in the Miracle and thats the same layout as well. different Decor and some areas look different but at least I'll be able to find my way around better now.
So glad to see you explore Carnival Spirit, since she's the ship we'll be sailing on in November. Since the sports bar opened up into the smoking section of the casino, did it smell like cigarettes in the sports bar? Excited for the rest of this series!
Fish tacos are one of my favorite embarkation lunch items!
We were on the spirit to Alaska 7/7/22… we love the spirit class ships too! Going again this may, first time on the luminosa 😊
We've never been on the Carnival Spirit. Look forward to seeing future vlogs!
So excited for this series! We cruised Carnival Spirit on the exact 8 day itinerary June 1-9. Love this ship and your video brought back so many wonderful memories! We attempted the Gold rush scavenger hunt. Did y’all find all the golden nuggets ? Love all your videos thank you!
Funny, the crew member at the coffeeshop said she could tell us where they all were, but we tried to find them ourselves. I think we only ended up finding five or six, ha ha...
I was on the Spirit for a Mexican Riviera cruise. The Miracle is still my favorite. Next year will be my 4th trip on her.
Excited for Spirit to come to Mobile later this year! Largest ship we've ever had!
We are cruising on it tomorrow!
Great to see the Spirit, we miss her in Australia! Just a FYI there is no smoking anywhere indoors on Australian sailings, not even in any part of the casino.
I think today’s sock of the day is my favorite I’ve seen so far 🤙🏼🍪 🥛
We’re on spirit to Panama Canal were so excited been planning for over a year now !,,
Can not wait. New Year’s Eve 2023 Out of Mobile Al. Spirit here we come
that is a really pretty ship!
Jay you crack me up, I love it when you get silly and then Dee starts to walk away like I’m not with this guy 💀
Awe we missed the spirit when she was in Jacksonville our home port. Get a ship on a stick for us lol. Enjoy!
Jacksonville my home port too! I was lucky to sail her back in March. Such an eclectic looking ship. I’m hoping to sail her again 🥰
@@natashamcintosh9027 I wish ships were moved more frequently, every year for Jacksonville since she is a one pier port…carnival could move between Jacksonville port Canaveral and Charleston to give home port people a chance to sail on different ships…I’ve done the fascination,escasty and elation more times than I’d like to admit
Good morning 🌻
My wife and daughter will be getting on this ship the day you get off 🤪🤪🤪
Leaving for the Spirit 8/18/22 can't wait. Elevator Panorama Girl lol
First of all, thank you for letting us enjoy your Alaska cruise, I look forward to the rest of your adventure. I'm leaving Seattle on September 12 on a cruise with the Norwegian Spirit. Now my question is, do you maybe know if there is a possibility to have a covid test taken in the cruise port itself. Otherwise I'll have to find a other place where I can have this done, because we'll be in Seattle as of September 9th and the test should not be older than 48 hours. Hoping for an answer, greetings from Belgium.
Good Morning. Looking forward to our Spirit cruise to Alaska in August 2023. Love the Spirit class. Question if I may - can you share where you stayed in Seattle prior to your cruise on the Spirit? Appreciate it. Thank you and safe travels.
We typically use the Holiday Inn Express Sea-Tac near the airport!! :D
Yeah! More Alaska excursions.. i'll be going in September so i'm happy. Loce Dee when she's stepping onto the ship. I did similar dance back in March! Love your necklace Dee... that's a whale tail? Did you buy it on one of those ports?
Thankee! It's from Alaska Shirt Company back in 2019!! :D
The Christine of video games
Awesome to see your room we just got booked in the obstructed view room next door 4155
Just our personal preference, but we like the simple brass and dark wood decor of Princess ships. Jungle and Pharaoh themes really don't have a cruise ship vibe...unless you're cruising the Nile or Zambezi.
These old Joe Farcus designs are craaaaazy, ha ha... but we tend to enjoy any decor, as long as we're on a ship!! :P
Hi guys! All the videos I've seen, the lights seem so yellow in the staterooms. Did you all get that feeling too?
Good morning
'Star Trek' things!
Maybe it was Nostromo, I'm not sure!! :P #joooookes
I was wondering, since your cabin was so close to the atrium, did you hear the music and people talking? We are looking to book a room near where yours is and would like to know if you feel it's ok to book it. Thank you so much. Love watching all your adventures.
When we opened our door, we could hear faint music sometimes. But we didn’t hear it inside the cabin, no. :D
@@parodeejay Thank you for your fast reply. Feel better about booking it now.
How do you order a package of water bottles to the room? Never knew we could do that. Which I'm definitely doing next cruise.
It’s in the Fun Shops online under the in-room food and beverages section!! :D
Do you have a preference to which cruise line fits your check list? I’ve only been on one cruise line.
Every line has strengths and weaknesses, so we can't pick just one! We like certain aspect about them all!! :P
By any chance, is “Groundhog Day” the official movie of ParoDeeJay? 🤣
Alaska again, oh mannnn. Just kidding! Hope we see a Salmon run.
Jay, My #1 place to find ducks is in the casino.
Reeeeeally! I don't think I've ever seen one in the casino, but I've often wondered if folks hide them in there!!
What hotel did, yall stay at we going on Carnival Luminosa Aug15 2024 just trying get ideal of cost of one
We usually use the Holiday Inn Express Sea-Tac near the airport!! :D
Good morning, I'm doing this one next week.... Can I ask, was there a wait for the uber ride & how much was it to the port?
same next Wednesday
@@twistedjboss280 See you then!
@@barbarap5278 most likely find me at sports bar especially when soccer is on
You still have 2 Spirit class ships to go. Atlantica and Mediterranea.
Meh, we'll get there eventually, ha ha... first goal: complete the *Carnival* fleet... second goal: sail every ship in the world!! :O #EvenTheOnesInLongIsland
Long Island is off limits.
Is that pool under the dome , heated ?
Not entirely sure, but someone said it was “warm” when they went in it. :P
Question: was your room a junior suite?
No, just a standard balcony!! :D
Try film deal or no deal please guys! 😊
We have before on other ships, but not too much recently. We actually played one time, not on stage but we bought a card!! :P
What are the ducks for
It's a game that passengers play with each other. Hiding rubber ducks around the ship for other folks to find, then they can keep them or re-hide them somewhere else. There's a whole Facebook group called "Cruising Ducks" dedicated to the game!! :D
Does the Spirit have the Seafood Shack?
I believe it had the Noodles bar at lunch which converted to a Seafood Corner for dinner. Same concept but it’s midship at one of the main buffet lines.
@@parodeejay thank you
the ship in the game room is Millenium Falcon from Star War not Star Trek you two went to Disney World and Hollywood studio 2 or 3 year ago and you two did vlog to
Ahh, yes! The good ol' NCC-1701 Millennium Falcon, of course! Beam me up, Chewy!! :P #joooookes
@@parodeejay star trek has the Enterprise
Oy, that mystery show was painfully corny!!
If you ever saw the Clue murder mystery presentation on Carnival when they had the Hasbro partnership, it was also delightfully corny, ha ha… good for the kiddos!! :P
Forgive me, guys, but I think I'll skip this, yet another, Alaska cruise 'cause I'm Alask-ed out!
We'll see ya again when we get back to doing dozens of repetitive Caribbean cruises in a row!! :P #joooookes
@@parodeejay Thanks! Hard to be a "repetitive" Caribbean cruise . . . in different countries that contain various cultures, and in which one can snorkel with turtles. Cannot wait!
officially tired of Alaska lol...lets do something different ;)
We'll be back to the endless parade of Caribbean vlogs again before you know it!! :P #joooookes
@@parodeejay lol...i said something DIFFERENT ;) I love your videos btw, I live vicariously via you because I can't go, so all in good fun. I know it's expensive!
Dang! We’re trying to get a Mars vlog series going, but the idea just hasn’t taken flight yet. Shoot for the stars, right?! :P
