    I started listening and thought "her voice sounds really familiar." Then I realized that I've been binging your Amtrak travel videos these past couple of weeks. You two give my favorite travel tours.

      Keep in mind, this is an upgraded stateroom. The rest of the rooms may or may not have that, just like the lower classification rooms aren't going to have the Elemis spa product in them. That's one of the things about the Cloud 9 Spa rooms, among having access to the thermal suite included.

    On the thermostat, you can hit the “quick cool” button which will leave the fan and AC running the whole time. It’s the little snowflake button on the bottom

    I went on the first Mardi Gras the summer of 1972 and our cabin was not yet wired to be used in the U.S. They provided a public room so we could use our hair blowers and electic curlers. So enjoy any new cabin, but back in 72, we still had"FUN".hope to go on the new one some day!

    Thank you both for the wonderful presentation of the room. No one has ever been this through. I love to bring my movies with me on a seven day cruise when I just want to chill, so you helped me out. By the Grace of God I will be on her in September 2022. No I never put my suitcase on the bed, I use packing cubes very easy to unpack.

    Love the new state rooms no big table between the couch and the vanity area, also like the extra outlets. However my husband travels with a sleep apnea machine and ha int all the outlets that car from the bed is can be dangerous. The order is not long enough to rea h the bed and even if it did the bulk of his machine would be in the middle of the floor. I don't understand why one outlet cant be right by the bed. I am sure that there are other passengers with medical conditions or needs that would benefit from an outlet right by the bed. I love. Cruising and look forward to be able to cruise again, enjoy your cruise!!!

    • @717dash_cam
      @717dash_cam 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Most CPAPs can work on 110 and 220, and any lines/ships/rooms with standard nightstands with table lamps usually have 220s behind them. I've unplugged one and used that as a way to have it plugged in... But this ship I would bet doesn't have plugs behind or under the bed. You COULD bring a really long extension cord or ask for one and some duct tape.. but this is something they really should think about. They've finally brought in USB charging, though I wouldn't use them because they're going to be standard slow charging ones and I just don't trust public type usb charging. Panorama has regular night stands, or at least did in my interior room.

    Thanks for the tour!!! I’m a cpap user and was wondering if there are any regular plug outlets by the bed. My cord may not stretch to the outlets by the desk (not to mention tripping hazard). If there isn’t one near the bed can you maybe ask the cabin steward if they have extension cords. I’m sailing in October and there are l other cpap-ers in the group that are curious if we need to bring extension cords and how long. Ugh the struggle! Love the video and looking forward to more!!!

    • @GroundedLifeCruises
      @GroundedLifeCruises  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      It is good, I got it hooked up fine. But... a trick is you can't switch to HDMI 2, until you are on a TV channel. If you switch while in the Carnival Menu, it'll go but switch right back. If you are watching a Tv channel and switch it'll stay.
