- So we thought we would give a very loose and informal opinion of what we thought of our latest cruise to the Norwegian Fjords aboard Sky Princess .We gave our opinion on everything from boarding , food , ports of call , and entertainment . Obviously it is only our opinion , hopefully it helps out some people who are thinking of going on Sky.
We tried to compare with the previous ship that we had been on P and O Iona .
Also I thought it would be a good time to inform Pearl of our next trip , a trip to Edinburgh . This time we will be going by rail aboard the Caledonian sleeper , strikes permitting .
Also took the opportunity to thank all who have watched, commented , and subscribed , thank you .
Loooks amazing! Thanks for the suggestions 🙏🏾💛✨
Great follow up. Princess ratings around 6/10
Thanks Tim , we thought we would give our opinions on our experiences onboard Sky Princess. We actually really like Princess cruises. Thanks Tim 👋
I agree with you on the atrium on Iona! it was one of our favourite places to be on that ship. Plus we liked those cocktails that came all smoking!
Hi , we did like sky’s atrium but found it harder to get a seat. Now with Iona it’s far more open with great views. I forgot about those cocktails 🍸 they were very dramatic when they came to the table . Thanks as always for watching and commenting.
Loved watching this, really enjoyed listening to your views…enjoy Edinburgh and you mentioned on instagram the weather won’t be as good as august but you’ll have a great time, can’t wait to hear all about it 😊
High Alexandra , thank you very much and appreciate you watching. Weather forecast doesn’t look great quite a bit of rain around, well it is Scotland in October 😄 . Pearl still doesn’t know where we are staying so hopefully she will like it . Also looking forward to the train journey, that should be an experience 😂 . Thanks again for watching our review. 👋👋
Que vídeo 🙏 obrigada por compartilhar está maravilha
Thank you for your lovely message 🙏 and thank you very much for watching our video 🙏❤️
In this crazy world I find a bit of peace, entertainment, and laughter watching your vlogs. Thank you - and can't wait for the Edinburgh escapade xx
Hi Sara , that is such a lovely comment,thank you . Your right it is a crazy world at the moment, so we are glad we give you a bit of light relief. Hopefully Edinburgh will be just as entertaining. Xx
Thanks for the videos; they're informative and you make us laugh! 😂
And it sounds like your Bosch washing machine cycle had finsished ... I could hear the distinctive beeps! 😂😂
Hi Andrew , how funny 🤣 😂 you are correct we had , barking dogs , car alarms, and then to top it off the washing machine. You’re right it is a Bosch I’ve just checked.🤣. Apart from all that thank you very much for watching and glad you found it informative 👋
We went to fjords early in the year and it was red hot . Have enjoyed watching these vlogs .
Hi Marecia , wish we would have had a little bit more sunshine ☀️ to be fair , just for the views. Going back in May 25 so hopefully will be lucky with the weather. Many thanks for your kind comments and support.
sounds like you had a good cruise, plently of things to see and do
Hi Guys, yeah we had a great time thanks. Would definitely recommend the Fjords as a destination. Just the scenery alone is enough. Then the Sky lift in Olden , the funicular in Bergen, great cruise. Thank you very much for watching.
Love you pair !!
Hi Ed , thank you that is great to hear , as always thank you very much for watching.
I love you both so much ❤
Awe , thank you for that Sarah, it makes us laugh when we watch them back ❤️
@@pearlandbrianstripsandadve8619 they are brilliant 🤩 xxXxx
Aww that's a lovely surprise. We are doing fjords on iona this coming June. Haven't been on a cruise since we met on oriana so it's a long time coming ❤
Hi Gaynor , you will love the Fjords it’s absolutely beautiful. Even in the not so good weather it still has something about it . I wonder if you will get the bug after not cruising for a while and start booking loads of them 😂. Have a brilliant time , I’m sure you will , and thanks very much for watching and commenting.❤️🥂
@pearlandbrianstripsandadve8619 yes we got the cruise bug while waiting for this one. We have 6 booked altogether up till Christmas next year where we are re newing our vows on arcadia, on boxing day. 😀
Morning Gaynor , wow you have got the bug ,6 booked 😱 . Good for you life is too short. What a great way to spend Christmas and renewing your vows as well, how lovely.❤️
Enjoy you trip to Edinburgh. Sounds great.
Hi Alan and Sharon, thank you both , did well to keep it a secret. I used to come down on the sleeper train when I was a kid so I am really looking forward to it .
Great review - we loved our Sky Princess cruise recently.
You both really make us smile.
If you ever want agent to look at a cruise for you we would love to help - we can do everything you get booking direct 😉
Hi Martin , thank you for your kind message . Glad you enjoyed Sky it really is a beautiful ship with great crew . As I said in the video I always book directly with the cruise company so it is good to hear that you can get exactly the same .
Thanks again appreciate the information 👋
A great watch guys! Plenty to look forward to👍😎
Thank you , it may help somebody who is going on Sky . Really looking forward to Edinburgh .
@@pearlandbrianstripsandadve8619 We love Edinburgh, don't forget to have one of those 'Scottish Breakfasts' with haggis👍😎
😄 Definitely I don’t mind a bit of haggis as it happens. As for Pearl absolutely no chance 😂
Thanks alot ❤
Hi Mohamed , thank you , not very thorough but it was our opinion and hopefully it will help someone. Thank you very much for watching 👍
Great vlog series! Looking forward to your next trips especially the sleeper trainer to Edinburgh. I think Pearl should go on the top bunk 😂
Thanks Guys , my sentiment as well, we could do a whole series of Pearl and the dramas of getting in and out of the top bunk 😂
credit where its due, Pearl is a great dancer. Brian, I notice that you wear everything by BOSS. Don't kid yourself, we all know who the real boss is☺😂
Hi Gary , 😂😂 I know who am I trying to kid . I do like a bit of Boss but I know where I am in the pecking order . She can certainly throw a few moves even with a dodgy hip . Thank you very much for watching and commenting 👍
We was on the sky princess back in November it was are first time on her really liked the ship we also found the crew a very friendly we all ways go with P&O
Hi Linda , Glad you enjoyed Sky Princess she’s a great ship . We really enjoy Princess and yes the crew really are very friendly. Thanks very much for watching Linda xx❤️❤️🛳️
Thank you both for all the advice and tips 😊. I'm not a fan of the atrium on the sky princess seems small as you say . And prefer like Pearl said iona with the windows . You both whinge as much as you want, lol 😆. You're allowed an opinion, and we are not going to like everything we do, so why not say about it. Lots of lovely trips to look forward to for you both ,look forward to seeing all those vlogs 😀 take care both of you ❤️ xxxA&J
Hi A&J hope you are both well , the trouble as we said with the atrium is its size and we do prefer to see more of the sea as we sail along . We have to have a little whinge now and then 😡 . We do like Princess cruises though and your right they are not all perfect. Thanks as always A&J for such positive and amusing comments and of course for watching. Xx❤️❤️👋👋
@@pearlandbrianstripsandadve8619 your welcome as always . We like princess cruises as well ,as we got married on the sea princess 👸 lol xxxx♥️
@amandahimsworth7469 wow that’s amazing, that’s a cruise you will never forget.❤️❤️
That was informative. Tell Pearl that you didn't really let the cat out of the bag. She had no idea where you were going, or how you were doing it. I'm excited about this one. It must be a little warmer there then here. We have now gone from very warm to very chilly! Living in SW Ohio is always interesting when it comes to weather. I couldn't hear if you gave a date for the trip. Edinburgh always looks great in pictures. Stay healthy, and I can't wait for more.
Hi Rene lovely to hear from you , I did tell Pearl that Rene was the only other person that knows where we are going . She still doesn’t know what hotel we are in . First video should be about the 5th November. We have had our first frost today which was a bit of a shock. We have been to Edinburgh in the winter before and you can look forward too all sorts of weather. Take care , stay warm and speak soon. X
Pearl is so spoilt.....I know you are not really into travelling, but you just do it to treat her like a princess.. I hope pearl appreciates the sacrifices you make...🤣🤣
Exactly right, I would much rather stay indoors especially now it’s getting colder. But when you have a Princess you have to treat her like one 🤢 I am so selfless 😂
Enjoy Edinburgh, the tram will take you down to Leith now for Brittania
Hi Lorna , that’s great information thank you very much . We are staying in Leith , at the Fingal hotel . Pearl doesn’t know. Thank you for the helpful information and for watching.
We’ve got princess plus for our sky cruise in April and if you think the drinks package is good it must be good! 😉😂
😂😂 we found it perfect for us , I do like to try the cocktails and there was so much choice. Thanks very much for watching and have a fantastic time on Sky . Hope you make the most of the drinks package 🍺
If you like a big cocktail selection you need to go on an MSC cruise with their premium drinks package. We loved our cruise on Virtuosa!
@hardrockheaven Hi , that’s good news we have looked at MSC but haven’t booked anything so far . It’s good to know that you recommend the drinks package and you enjoyed the ship .👍
We'd love to go to Scotland by train. Its a great City too. Look forward to seeing the Vlog. Are you staying at the hotel that JK Rowling stayed at whilst she wrote the books? 👍
When I was a kid we used to travel down on the sleeper train from Scotland to see my Nan in East Tilbury so it should bring back some happy memories. We are staying on the Fingal in Leith a converted boat . Hope you guys are well .👋
Off on Sky next week. We had the same room steward in 2021 when we did one of the first post covid 4 day cruises ..such a nice guy! Mrs ZT calls them Noddy Trains too lol. Are you based in Essex?
Hi , thank you very much for watching. Richard was such a cheerful person always polite and helpful. 😂We have always known those trains as Noddy trains , I don’t know why . Yeah we’re from Essex a place called Corringham. In between Billericay and Basildon. 👋
@@pearlandbrianstripsandadve8619we’re in Rayleigh 😊
Almost neighbours 😄@@Zombie-Tog
