    Yes I wasn't sure before I went, but it was Fantastic! Will I go again? ...perhaps, but I do miss my HAL ships too much. Oh yes, ONE thing with Virgin I did not understand: the soap in the bathroom was BLACK! I never worked out if that was a joke or serious, so I bought a normal(!) soap in port and used that instead...

    Thanks once more for a fab vlog of Scarlet Lady, Loved it !!! I must sat the hammock has me wanting to go on Her all the more.
    I am sure i have watched a vlog of Explorer 2, and some balcony cabins have a hammock on them, We are booked on ex 2 for next July ( fingers crossed!) and i will be 1st one to try it.!
    Well cant wait for your next adventure so keep us informed and till then, Take care.💛🚢🚢

    Just wonderful Carole and Paul, as always
    Your vlogs and thoughts are always very much appreciated, and it seems to have certainly whetted your appetite for more. As you know, we have booked for Valiant Lady in July next year, and a lot of that is down to you, for your great vlogs. Always been a traditional cruiser before, but Think to mix it ups every now and again will be good for us. Got all of my booking info now, and transfers to the ship and back sorted - so very much looking forward to it. I hope one day to bump into you two on a cruise

      Thanks for your lovely comment! We like to try different cruise lines and glad we did. We have pencilled Valiant Lady in for next year too. Agree it would be great to meet on a cruise one day! 😀

    Hello, I just started watching your videos and enjoyed theses last ones on the Scarlet Lady
    so much that I have now subscribed. You both are so entertaining and I seem to be always
    laughing (which I love to do). Thank you both, and I am working my way backwards thru your

    A glowing review of Scarlet Lady, so glad you had such a wonderful time. I really enjoyed this series of vlogs, informative and fun as always. On reflection it wouldn't be my first choice of ship, however if the destination and price was right I'd be interested to try for the food and entertainment.. The Dock House outside terrace looked like the perfect pre-dinner drinks venue. Thanks for sharing.
    Happy New Year to you both and I hope you have a fantastic year of cruising.😘

    • @PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel
      @PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      That's exactly how we felt when we booked, and glad we did. Virgin prices can be crazy but this 4 day cruise was affordable. We are keeping our eyes on Valiant Lady for next year, good to try something different, we like to mix it up! 😀

    Hi both,
    Looks very exciting cruise!
    Does Virgin have traditional restaurants with tablecloths!! As on P& O? All seemed to be like cafes?
    Thanks,again for showing video.

    • @PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel
      @PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      It was great fun. Yes they do have restaurants like that with tablecloths, the Wake and Agave which we touched on in previous episodes. The Galley featured in this one is more of a buffet type restaurant.

    I'm glad you both enjoyed it but from all be vlogs we've watched it just seem Virgin went out of their way to be different for different's sake. And it's expensive and more then we would want to pay. It will be interesting to see if they get repeat business after the novelty and gimmicks wear off.

    • @PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel
      @PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

  • @Warriorbox
    @Warriorbox 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I was septical too Carole, but having watched your series I am won over, if the price is manageable. I am a solo traveler, what do you think my experience would be like? Would be interested to hear your thoughts, and perhaps Jamie's too, as I believe he was travelling solo?

    • @travelswithlizzylou
      @travelswithlizzylou 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I was on Scarlet Lady Solo, was great. Met friends for life. Booked Valiant Lady solo too.

    • @PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel
      @PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Agree price is key, and we were very happy with what we paid. It was a very happy and sociable ship so would imagine it would be good for solo travellers. @travelblogjamie may be able to add his thoughts?

    A nice episode, Paul and Carole ☺️
    You absolutely made the right decision giving up dinner for that sunset and tasty beverages.
    I’m in the same camp that Paul was discussing, that it seems superficial/gimmicky- I guess we will just have to try it to see for ourselves.

    • @PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel
      @PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks Bob. Sunsets at sea are just the best! Somethings are gimmicky but a lot do work. Definitely do try them, we will again when the right price and itinerary comes up! 😀
