Truthfully, it’s always a sad moment but that just means you had a great time and it’s time to book another! Haha

Was so great to meet you guys. It was rough but thankfully it didn’t make me feel any worse than I already did. I missed this show but have seen it once before. I’m glad Peter could capture it.

Thanks for watching. Depends on your itinerary. If one is international you will most likely have to get off to go through customs. Both of ours were domestic so we didn’t have to get off the ship but we did to meet our family and friends. ☺️

It was beautiful, so happy for them both. I know, Whitney comes on and you know I go crazy. Plenty more Whitney outbursts to come. 🫶

Thank you so much!!! 😊

The captain was captain Ivan but I didn’t meet the staff captain unfortunately.

We had captain Ivan this cruise. ☺️

I didn’t meet the staff captain sorry.

That’s so awesome. Sorry I didn’t meet him.

It’s the sweetest. I love young love

I wish I actually was there. It broke my heart I couldn’t be but so grateful to my dad for going and filming for me. Best I could do. 🫶

@kayeheitsch9336 still laugh when he drops the ring.

The honour was all mine! So nervous you dropped the ring 🤣 but that makes it memorable. Congratulations Nam Nam.

@@CruiseCrazedFamhahaha yes!! I was so scared the ring dropped out the box when that happened 😂. I see Katie told you the Nam Nam name 😂

@ hahaha, maybe I guessed it… 😜

@@CruiseCrazedFamhahahaha 😂, maybe we will never know 🤔 haha

Thanks mate. 🫶

Thank you for watching! I’m glad you enjoyed it and thanks for the 👍

Thanks for watching! Only my son had sushi, I wouldn’t be surprised if he picked up the bug while eating it with his hands but it was contagious so I really do believe it was norovirus or gastro. I did however get food poisoning from prawns a month later…. 😩

Just saw your reply to another comment. Looks like Medicare card is the trick there.

Thank you for watching! Yes, you answered your own question, Drivers license for adults and Medicare card for kids! There is glasses you can use in the cabin and you can walk around the ship with it. We have been known to put Champagne in the tumblers. Just note, if you take the bottle to the dining room they can charge and corkage fee.

You got it warmed up for us! Haha. Had such an amazing time.

Awww, sorry to hear Denise had it too. It’s never fun especially on vacation. These things happen though and glad she got looked after and you guys could claim your missed days back. Thanks for sharing🫶

Oh that’s interesting that it was on the news. Apparently last year was the worst year in 12 years for norovirus. I don’t wish it on anybody but they do have protocols and take it seriously. It’s a very hard virus to get under control.

You’re welcome. Thank you for watching. 🙏

Oh no, I’m so sorry. That’s terrible. I hope you have fully recovered now. 🫶

Hi, just did a search and found this for you: Launderette faclities are located at the following locations: Deck # 9- Portside forward in front of stateroom # 9270 Deck # 7 Starboard side midship in front of stateroom # 7339 Deck # 2 Starboard side midship in front of stateroom # 2367 Guest ironing rooms are at the following locations: Deck # 1 Starboard side aft in front of stateroom #1425 Deck # 6 Starboard side midship in front of stateroom # 6391 Deck # 8 Starboard side midship in front of stateroom # 8381

Thank you. Yeah it wasn’t much fun, not going to lie but thankfully the others weren’t as sick as me and they were mostly sleeping while I was sickest so there wasn’t a fight for the bathroom. I shared this because although it sucks it’s important to know there are protocols and procedures to support your recovery and prevent the spread. 🫶

Agree 💯!! This was honestly such an amazing day for us and we would do it again if we get the chance.

Thank you for understanding. I honestly was shattered I missed it! I still am. So happy for you both. 🥰

@@CruiseCrazedFam we were just glad you were okay, thank you!! 😊

Nawww, thank you. 🙏

Why do us mums always cop it worse!!!? I still don’t understand why it was so mild for the others when I was so sick. Gastro stop is amazing. I forgot to mention that the medical staff gave me some of that as well but we always take that on our cruises anyway just in case. Definitely puts a damper on your cruise though.

Nawwww, poor thing. It always sucks when our kiddies hurt themselves. I have to look up the scar cream but yeah hers isn’t noticeable until she lifts her head up. She healed up well thankfully.

Thank you Wendy, I’m a big sentimental sook. Lol. Took so long to convince my brother and I was so excited to have them there but we still had some great moments and I am very appreciative of that.

Thank you. I was a tad emotional 🙈 I feel like a sook but it was a raw moment. Like I said, just an excuse to do another one. 😜

That’s right Mark. Don’t be paranoid but take precautions. These things happen but you can always minimise the risk.

Thanks guys. Gastro is never fun especially on vacation. 🫶

This is great to know! You could have been on the same time as me. I heard the outbreak carried onto the next cruise too. I wish I hadn’t have been so stubborn and turned down the drip, it would have helped my recovery so much better and I would have claimed it all back on insurance. I agree, the staff on the ship (especially medical) were great. I really couldn’t fault them. I hope you had a speedy recovery.

I had it coming out both ends. I have NEVER been that bad/sick before. I was like it for about 4 hours before I could even get to the phone to call the Medical centre. As soon as i received the medications my symptoms stopped instantly. But I was so dehydrated and weak that they kept me there and on a drip for another 4 hours. I was home the following afternoon and I was back to normal within a few days thankfully.

@@CruiseCrazedFam Also my cruise left Sydney 27 September till 6 October.

@ oh, we boarded October 10th so it must have carried on for a while

Thanks for watching. Exactly my point. It’s everywhere and spreads fast! With kids, it’s been an annual thing last few years but it is never fun. “Cruise Tummy” sounds like a great idea.💡

Thanks Joanne, yes i’m all good thank you. You are right, these things happen and we knew this is rare. We have had many great cruises, we were just unlucky this cruise. Plenty more great cruise adventures to come.

Thanks for watching and glad to hear you got something out of it. I really think travelling with kids increased the chances for us. You can wipe everything but that doesn’t always kill gastro. Make sure you wash your hands with soap regularly and avoid touching your face etc. This was rare but these things can and do happen. I wouldn’t stress about it, enjoy your holiday but make sure you take the necessary precautions where possible. I’m sure you will have a great time.

Funnily enough, the previous year we had to cancel a cruise because our kids got gastro. The cruise line refunded 25% and the rest was refunded through travel insurance.

Yeah unfortunately there is. I have noticed it a bit recently that we are some of the few who wash their hands or sanitise.

On RCCL Ovation of the Seas they made you wash your hands on the way to the buffet.. They wash stations set up and a crew member to point you to the wash station. Having said that, we did see a couple of peeps cough at the buffet into their hand and continue to use the tensile without using hand sanitizer.

@ I do like that Royal have that system. isn’t it sad that we live in a world where adults need to be told to wash their hands and I have seen all sorts of gross stuff in the buffet too.

Thanks, the way it spread it was definitely gastro…. I did have food poisoning a month later.

@ geez. You’ve been in the wars (as my parents would say).

@ hahaha, yeah I had a rough run. I can handle it… would rather not though.

Thanks for watching and I glad you got some information out of it. Always get travel insurance right? Happy new year. 🫶

Thanks babe. 🫶

Thank you. 🥰 These things happen Like I said, we are fortunate to cruise as much as we do, it was just disappointing because this was such a special family cruise for us. 🫶

@@CruiseCrazedFam Totally understandable to feel down and sad and never be sorry for crying, it's just natural. Sometimes life can throw a spanner in the works and stuff things up, but it's never as bad as you think it is.

Thanks for watching. Fortunately we have not yet got Covid or the flu yet. They are great tips although my knees are shot so although I take the stairs, I need the handrails. It’s always harder to stay healthy with kids.

Thank you so much. Thankfully we have had 2 short 3 day cruises without incident since that have helped make up for it but hoping for another big family cruise soon.

Thank you so much for watching and sorry for making you cry. 🙈 I’m glad you have got some good information from my videos and I hope you had the most magical cruise ever! 🫶

Thanks lovely. That’s why I looked like death when you saw me that last night. Lol. That’s why I felt it was important to put this video together. I was pleasantly surprised to learn about the protocols so I thought it would be great to share.

Thanks for watching all the way to the end. I even cried editing. Lol. I’m such a sook. Yeah, I figured there was some good information to pass out to the public so worth crying on RUclips over it.

Your information was good and I also agree with what you said about some people do bring some diseases on board as they don't want to loose there money

@ we literally cancelled an entire cruise last year because the kids got gastro the night before. We were supposed to cruise without the kids and people told us to still go but we knew caring for the kids there was a high chance we would get it too….. and we did.

Thanks legend. You guys definitely helped us get there and we appreciate you.

Welcome to the channel and thanks for watching! We didn’t have to get off the ship if we didn’t want to but I also believe that depends also if you are doing international and have to go through customs. We got off to meet with family and friends.

I’m pretty certain they would. I remember discussing accessibility but that was based around my mums scooter. We booked through Visit Cairns and they were great or you can call Skyrail Cairns directly and I’m sure they can give you the best advice.

@CruiseCrazedFam thank you so much, I'm cruising with carnival next September to Cairns 😊

@ that’s exciting! This was our favourite port day on this cruise. This excursion was amazing
