Thank you for watching Wahoo's Bar & Grill video. We will have to try the fish dip next time around!

Thank you for watching the Calico Tanks Trail. It is definitely a must do when you are visiting Las Vegas! It's so beautiful and you exercise a few of the calories off from all of the food & drink indulgences.

This definitely needs to be on everyones bucket list. Such a special celebration. We are glad you enjoyed watching it and bringing the memories back.

Thank you for watching the video! The excursion was Panama Canal by Ferry. We highly recommend it!! We are still talking about how cool it was with family and friends. Make sure you go to the buffet and get some of the grab and go to supplement what is served on the boat. Enjoy your cruise. Let us know if you do the excursion and how much you enjoyed it.www.ncl.com/shore-excursions/PCG_18/Panama-Canal-by-Ferry

We are thrilled you found the video helpful. Happy Birthday 30th birthday to your wife! What a great way to celebrate!! Thank you for watching the video and leaving a comment. Have a fabulous cruise!!

It was a fun tour! We would definitely explore the areas more on our next visit. Thank you for watching the video and commenting.

Glad you enjoyed the video!! We really had a great time!

Yes, but, we will not be doing that again. Our circumstances forced us to fly in that morning but that is a recipe for disaster. When we went to Key West and the Florida Keys, we flew into Ft. Lauderdale, and our bags didn't make until the next day. Unfortunately, there were a few cruise travelers on our flight, and their bags didn't make it either. I don't know how that worked out but don't want to know. So, fly in the day before!

It is such a great place to stop! We had a great time. Glad you liked it!

Thank you so much for watching the video. We tipped all of the bus drivers & tour guides and bought a beer or 2 on excursions with US dollars. They were all very grateful. We paid for our souvenirs with our credit card. We had no trouble using either payment method. Hope this helps! Have a great time!!

Thank you for watching the video and leaving a comment! We appreciate the feedback.

Thank you for watching the videos and leaving a comment! Before our cruise we had wondered how we would fill in all of the days especially the at sea days. We were hoping the videos would help others in showing the variety of fun you can have on the cruise ships. We have not cruised on Celebrity yet. We would love it if you let us know about your experience when you return home. Hope you have a fabulous cruise!

@@travelwithdandeWill do, thanks!

The Gem is a great ship! Not too big and not too small. Have you booked any excursions? Let us know if you have any questions. Kick back, relax and have fun!!

Thank you for watching the video! We are glad you liked it. We went to Arizona the week of 4th of July due to fitting in work schedule. It was in the 100's all week. Hot is hot but we live in the south and enjoyed the dry heat vs the humidity we deal with. It looks like the average daytime temperature for the month of October is 89. We normally tip tour guides 20% like you would do for other services. Of course, it depends on service whether it's more or less sometimes. We loved Leo our guide and gave a few extra $'s. Let us know if you go and your thoughts on the tour.

Thank you for watching the video and are glad you found it informative! If we remember right Belize and Cayman Islands had snorkeling excursions. A TA cruise is on our bucket list. We will definitely have to look into the Getaway. What was your favorite thing to do/memory from the cruise?

@@travelwithdande I enjoyed the food immensely and we went in with low expectations because we are hobby cooks. It is hard to say what my favorite thing was because this was my first cruise. I enjoyed the cocktails, the hot tubs (it was April/May so weather could be questionable across the Atlantic), our balcony and meeting folks. We also enjoyed our excursions which were NCL. Next time, we'll do our own thing or private tours.

We had a fabulous time! It was our first NCL ship and our first cruise in over 20 years. Thank you for watching our videos.

Thank you for subscribing! The Panama Canal was on our bucket list and decided to check it off the list first. It was definitely worth the long day. What NCL ship were you on and what were the ports of call?

Life is GREAT! Enjoying sharing our travels. We are so glad you watched the video and gave us some feed back. If you haven't yet, we would love for you to subscribe to our channel. Keep watching for more epic videos.

So glad you liked it!! It was a lot of fun to put it together!! Thanks for the feedback!! Are you planning to do the same cruise?

It absolutely is tasty!! Thanks for checking out the video!!! Did you go on the NCL Gem or another NCL ship?

@@travelwithdande we were on the breakaway

Y'all are going to love it!! The name of the excursion is "Panama Canal by Ferry". You go through the Gatun locks and get off the Gem in Gatun Lake. They bus you to Gamboa where you board the ferry. You take the ferry down the Guillard Cut, cross the Continental Divide and through the Pedro Miguel and Miraflores Locks on the way to the Pacific. It is a long day but well worth it. Enjoy!!

How much was your excursion?

@@busymom7729 It was $199 per person. If you have Free-at-sea, one would be at $149. It was most definitely the most expensive of our excursions on this trip but it was pretty cool and a once-in-a-lifetime experience. As I mentioned in the video, take advantage of the Grab-and-Go from the Garden Cafe before heading off on this excursion!! Enjoy!!

Good evening! I'm sorry for the delay in my response. I wanted to make sure I gave you the right answer. If you are staying in a inside, ocean view or balcony cabin it will include two lower beds that can be converted into a queen-size bed. When you are booking you let them know how you would like the bed to be set up. Is this your first cruise on NCL? It was our first cruise with NCL and are looking forward to booking another with them. Have a fabulous time!

Yes, Did I say otherwise?

@travelwithdande yes at one point you said 98 instead of 89. It is a good video though.

Thanks for the feedback.

We are so glad you liked the video! This excursion was through NCL. When we booked it, it was Panama Canal by Ferry. We were too nervous to book through a private site since it was such a long excursion. We have watched too may videos of cruise ships leaving passenger that weren't back from excursions that weren't booked through them. Haha! We were late coming in because of a delay with the Panama Canal pilot boarding the ferry. Since we booked through NCL they waited for us. Let us know what your experience on the excursion was when you get back. Have a great cruise!

Thank you for your comment! We loved the cruise. The staff were fabulous from our cabin steward to the officers. We really enjoyed our excursions. We had planned to do the hop on hop off bus on our own in Cartagena but I'm so glad we booked through NCL. The traffic there is unbelievable. We wouldn't have been able to do the things we did on the tour. I'm glad you mentioned food. We liked most of the dishes we ate but weren't in love with some of it. Since you have cruised with NCL before we are very interested to know what you think about the food after your cruise. We are planning to do more cruises with NCL so please let us know.

@@travelwithdande Thanks for getting back I’ll let you know how we got on when we’re home again 👍🏻 I forgot to mention that it was also useful watching your video and seeing how people were dressed.

@@sukijay4990 Glad the video helped!! Thanks for checking out our channel!!

My wife and I are NCL Platinum cruisers. Not retired yet but hopefully in 5 years. We have cruised mostly Bahamas, Eastern and Western Caribbean's. We have also gone to Alaska. We are hoping to go to Europe but we know it is very expensive. Living in south Florida we have thought about doing a Panama Cannel cruise. I have noticed that you have done an excursion at every port, I know that could add up so just wondering which ports to do an excursion or just get off the ship and walk the port. As Platinum rewards members we get 4 specialty dinners (including free at sea) and of course open bar. We have also been to Harvest Kay and would probably stay on the ship for that stop.

Thank you for watching the 11-Day Panama Canal Cruise. We are so sorry for the delay in getting back with you! Darrell is counting down to retirement also. The Gem was our first cruise with NCL. We are booked for an Alaska cruise in 2026 on the NCL Encore. Is that the ship y'all were on? Those are great perks for the Platinum status. I can't wait to get there. Europe is on our bucket list too!!

Unfortunately we do not know about the shopping area. We went on the Ferry Excursion and had some delays so we got back to the boat late. The Gem was delayed going back through the Gatun Locks so I don't think the passengers that stayed on the Gem got to get off and explore in Colon either. Thank you for your question.

We are so excited for you! We absolutely loved it!! We would suggest you look through the excursions and book them as early as you can if you are booking them through NCL. We enjoyed the excursions we went on but missed out on one of our first choice excursion because we waited too long to book them. You are going to have a great time! Have you been on the Gem before? Let us know if you have any more questions. Thank you for the comment!

Sure, on the Gem, they have everybody with an excursion to meet at the stardust theatre at a certain time. Then they send off groups of people by excursion. They sometimes give you a sticker with a bus number if everybody boards buses. If you are not taking an excursion from NCL, they let you go off first. It’s pretty orderly so it all goes well. We never had to wait a long time in line. Hope this answers your question.

They really do! We won't go on a trip without them. Thank you for watching the video and commenting.

Did I pronounce it funny, LOL?

You will absolutely enjoy this area. Just keep hydrated as the heat can sneak up on you! We liked the Sunset horse ride and the Valley of Fire, even more than the Red Rock Canyon! Y'all have fun!!!!

Thanks, hopefully this can help you plan a nice Texas Hill Country trip!!

We did too!! Thanks!!!

It was a nice trail to hike and really happy there was a little flow at the waterfall! Thanks!!

Eating at Denny's was your first mistake.

Well, everything else at the Twin Arrows Casino and Resort was great, just not the service in this specific cafe that day. I constructively talked with the Manager and that's all that needs done.

WTF? IT DEFINITELY IS A METEOR CRATER. You have no clue what you are talking about.

@@calmerthanyou6180 I suppose you except everything thing your told too? So explain where all the debris went ? Since you know everything!

@@milesdyson5211 .. I suppose you think you're smarter than the thousands of scientists that have studied this crater. I suppose you also ignore the edges of the CRATER that are still pushed up from the impact which wouldn't be there if it was a sink hole, genius.. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Also a simple Google images search will debunk your retarded theory about shit you know nothing about. There ARE in fact many boulders and rocks around the outside of the CRATER. I've been there. Smart guy.

@@calmerthanyou6180 For one, Scientist are the last ones to trust anything your told from them, COVID Jabs and useless mask wearing should have taught you a lesson by now about so called Scientist. Call me all the names you want, Again where's the debris? For something that large, Debris would be Everywhere! Not just the edges. An Explosion that size would spread large rocks and debris for miles. Maybe you need to pull your head out your ass and take the blind fold off. Don't believe everything you're told-!

Hey, it's all good! One thing we can agree on is that it's a cool place to visit even if we have differing opinions on how it came about! Thanks for checking out the channel!!

Where were the federal camp sites?

@@travelwithdande Native Land is considered Federal

Gotcha!

Glad it was helpful! The video does no justice to just how beautiful the various paintings and statues are. I know you will enjoy it!!!

I think it was around $119 per person which is a lot but we thought it was plenty worth it!!

@@travelwithdande Excellent thank you 😊

Y'all will have a great time!

I can't even try to understand but hope this brings back great memories of your time together!! Thanks for commenting on the video and checking out the channel!!!!

Thank you, just a typo, so thanks for alerting me to that!!

Thank you! 😊It was quite beautiful !!!

Yes, very talented!! Great work!

Many breweries have tins for sale which are basically just a metal version of their logo. I love to hang these up in my shop or backyard. It's great for memories.

Very talented vandals, LOL!!

@@travelwithdande yes. vandals!

adding murals makes cities more vibrant attracting people to the area increasing business for all places in the area. it’s awesome 😊

@@deeoneandonly069 So all the millionaires painted graffiti on their houses and their value tripled?

Hey Eric, thanks for watching the video. That would be very cool if you could do a seminar!! Real craftsmen are hard to come by. The artwork at the museum requires very intricate detail so do this, you must be very patient!

I'm in awe as copper is a soft metal and I imagine you've got to be very careful. Where did you learn repousee and wire basketry?

You ain't kidding! That's what we love about travel and that's learning things we never would have known had we just sat around at home or just went to the most frequented locations!! Thanks!!
