    I highly recommend the behind the scenes ship tour on a sea day! I learned that they make their own fresh water (distilled for machinery, mineral added for utilities, and further filtered for drinking).

    I am loving all the vacay vlogs, Joel. Dont let the haters get you down. The long time viewers wanna hear the chatting and watch the fun interactions just as much as the beautiful destination views. Also, I wouldn't worry about the repetitive parts, because if we were on that cruise ourselves, it would be the same for us so it's just sharing the honest experience.

    The way I gasped and choked up as you were opening the curtain in Tortola! Wow. Not the most scenic but something about the contrast with the hustle of getting on and waiting for baggage and maybe I just need what you described, to sleep soundly and wake up to somewhere different and beautiful with all it's promise of a relaxing fun time.
    Joel, even if you're not doing a promo, just your vlogging your trip is a great marketing for Virgin voyages.
    It looks like you all are having such a great time in these videos, and I'm so glad you got to do all the different ports, beaches and, excursions. What a treat! Thanks for sharing it with us.

    Whenever you’re with Anthony & Peter, it always surprises me how quiet Anthony is! Obviously we see him as this fairy loud character on Corrie or TV, but he seems quiet & reserved in ‘real life’!! Peter is more like the TV Anthony, and i love his sense of humour.

    Great travel vlog so far. It’s got that you’re taking it easy activity wise. My husband and I would book land activities that started way too early and be gone all day and arrive back in time for the ship to sail. We would get cleaned up, have dinner then a show and hang out at the casino. FYI the 1st ship you saw in port was a MSC ship which is the company I work for and the other one you saw in St Kitts was a Costa Line vessel. BTW nice haircut 👍😜😎

    Just a tip from a skin care professional. When putting on any skin care apply in a figure eight going into the eyes. When applying out towards the ear will cause wrinkles. Just FYI. When you said Nashville did you mean Nashville Tennessee?? I'm in east Tennessee. Close to Dollywood..... I too have a diet coke addiction. Drink several Lt daily. Enjoy oh btw y'all are a very handsome couple. I lost my partner of 25 year to COVID in 21. Please love each day as if it's your last. I just got though his bday.

    The water will more than likely come from the sea and be cleaned through filters into fresh water. The sewerage will be pumped out every time the ship docks as I would imagine it's probably illegal to dump it in the sea. I'd be interested in how much diesel is stored onboard and how much it costs to fuel a skip of that size.

    Puerto Rico is just like Washington DC. Exactly the same.
    We are both a commonwealth of the United States.

    When you were out the balcony for an hour did the cabin area heat up a lot? Heard the air won’t run. Enjoyed the watch, you are relaxing to view. Subscribed

    I really enjoyed that. I live in Hawaii and the islands here are much different looking as we have very high mountains. I thought Tortola and St Kitts looked beautiful and I have always been curious about the BVI . I suppose since you like city life with your beaches, you would like Waikiki. Have you ever been there? Most people who live here don't like Waikiki as too noisy, too crowded, and not the "real Hawaii," which doesn't really exist anymore and probably never did once Hawaii was colonized. Come visit!

      Never been to Waikiki (or Hawaii at all!) I'd love to visit one day!!

    All those questions you think about? The cruise ship 🚢 tour answers them all.

      It was quite cold initially but then felt warm after a few minutes!

    Make sure you keep reapplying sunscreen during the day when outdoors Joel. The tropical sun can wreck your skin.

    I feel the cruises to be so wasteful, unethical and unsustainable that I cannot understand why someone - with even a slightest idea of what the world is really going through these days - would go to one. Until I see this view 9:48
    Cruises are an old school type of travel but in their current form they are just plain wrong. I lived my childhood with only type of holiday was one-night cruises between Finland and Sweden, and they were practically my parents getting totally hammered and me and my brothers gallivanting around the ship for the whole 24 hours without any supervision, overeating at buffet, playing slot machines and buying as much cheap candy as possible. As an adult I have been to couple of these overnight Baltic Sea cruises and they continue to disgust me with the wastefulness, drunkenness and idiocy they portray.
    And still, as I can understand the idea and intrigue, I cannot fathom why would a person with any knowledge about the state of the world go to a cruise, whether for one night at government subsidised liner at Baltic Sea or a billionaire-operated luxury ship at the Gulf of Mexico.
    Well, I sincerely hope you had a lovely time and got to relax and unwind as the new year has really begun. The scenery, clear waters and sun would be lovely to experience once in a lifetime ❤
