I voted for you, when does my cruise start, i mean, i won the price right? 😂🤣😂🤣
Pastries for breakfast, living the best life. Im relay liking the look of this ship, a possible future cruise for us.
We really loved the ship, and are big Marella fans
I thought you said it was a “naughty train” and was left wondering until I read some comments! Will be in Ajaccio next summer on Mediterranean cruise. And Carole the self guided tour on Alcatraz is fabulous.
Glad you liked Ajaccio. We docked there as a substitute port in 2015 when we couldn’t tender at Monte Carlo. It was an unexpected and unplanned gem. We’ve always said we’d go back…but of course we haven’t yet 😊
It is a gem! Hope you get back one day!

It looks wonderful thank you for sharing
Thanks for watching!
Thanks for this vlog,Its a great help,as we visit Ajaccio,as part of our cruise in September with Discovery 2.
Your welcome,glad it was helpful 😀
As you've found out Abuela is Grandmother in Spanish, pronounce - ab-wella-s...
Yes thanks! 😍
Nice! You two always look like you are having such a good time together, Thanks for sharing,
We had a great time! Thanks for watching!
We went on an excursion up into the hills, then on a Noddy train (bit hairy). It was then on to a bee farm where we were told about the different bees and varieties of honey. It was a lovely day and we have a jar of really tasty honey
Oh really sounds fun!
Lovely cabin, great balcony!
Yes it was great!
I’m just back from my first cruise (with Marella) and we also docked in Ajaccio!!
I didn’t have any expectations for it and I loved it so looking forward to seeing your experience.
It was a great surprise!
Looks lovely-great editing!
Thanks Cheri!
How would you rate flying on TUI planes and do they have Premium Economy seats. Thank you
We had a good flight, yes think they do have premium economy.
Unfortunately, we here in the U.S. are not able to book Marella cruises. So, I will live vicariously watching your vlogs. Thank you. 😀
The Cruising Canucks from Canada have just been on a Marella Cruise, check them out as they are doing a video about how they booked!
@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel How very odd. I was only having a similar conversation the other day. Canadians can book Marella Cruises through Sunwing Vacations. 🛳
@@steven5018 But you are restricted to a few cruises chartered by Sunwing Vacations
I really liked Ajaccio on my visit, need to go back 😊
Yes it was great!
We docked in Propriano when we visited Corsica... no where near as nice as Ajaccio looks... but I remember the sail away to be fabulous... Corsica was so lush and green... beautiful island... 😊
It looks a beautiful island, would love to go back!
We did the Noddy Train in Ajaccio and I have to say it was one of the best value trips we have done. Definitely Corsica which is part of France. I forgot my GCSE French lessons and accidentally ordered black coffee instead of Caffe Au Lait 😂
Lol! We would love to go back to Ajaccio!
We are off to Ajaccio with P&O next month. Love watching your vlogs. I also grew up in Longlevens - my parents still live a road or two in-front of the rugby club. Hope to meet you one day on a cruise!
Oh really! Have a great time on P&O!
Going to be in Ajaccio in Sept with Celebrity - so excited!!
It's a lovely port!
It is pronounced ub-way-la. I believe it is spanish for grandmother.
Yes that's right! 😍
Right Then! Cheers Carole and Paul!
Your welcome! 😃
Nice vlog ty.
You were in Ajaccio capital of corsica the birthplace of napoleon.
Thanks, yes we realised that in the end! 🤣
@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel you're lucky I don't know what day it is on some cruises 🤣
Have you had any problems or issues dealing and booking with TUI?
No none whatsoever!
@@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel How would you rate flying on TUI planes and do they have Premium Economy seats. Thank you
Just tried pronunciation on google - uh zhak see ow (oh)-- I was saying it wrong!
Oh thanks for that!
You were quicker than me on this one … I’m French speaking but even in French the pronunciation doesn’t make sense …
It's "ah-BWEH-la" 😂 Spanish for grandmother 😊 Another lovely vlog!
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!
I was going to spell it as "ob-way-la" as I'm guessing Spanish is not a second language for Paul and Carol but your spelling is probably correct.
@@andyturner206 I grew up speaking Spanish, but I'm certainly not an expert on writing out how to pronounce the words properly. I'm sure Travel Blog Jamie has already set them straight on the pronunciation by now anyway! 😆
My wife and I are not big alcohol drinkers. If we don't purchase the premium package, can we still order a premium beer or a premium champagne and a speciality coffee on occasion charged to our account? Thank you
Yes you can 😃
Absolutely, Actually, they would love that you did just that ❤
My wife isn’t a drinker but we got the premier package as she prefers the tins of pop rather than the on tap ‘squirt squirt’ soft drinks
@@davehannigan3438 Hefty price to pay for canned drinks only?
How do you find the Marella cruises we are off on the anthem in 4wks
Love Marella! Have a great time on Anthem!
Ajaccio very nice,did you see Napoleon house.
No we didn't!
I'm concerned about The Exchange venue being on deck 8 as I have booked a cabin right there before I realised. Do you know whether the noise affects cabins close by? Marella staff are unable to answer this question and I'm not having much luck trying to change the cabin. Do you know which side of the ship the entrance to this venue is? Thanks
Looking at the deck plans the cabins across the corridor 8108-8118 are closest. However, would not imagine too much noise coming from there as there is some music but a lot is narrative. We have not heard any complaints so far. What cabin did you book?
@@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel thanks so much for replying. Booked cabin 8108.
No problem. Do let us know how you get on.
@@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel I will. First time cruise with Explorer 2 in June, Adriatic Affair. Brilliant! Now have booked Voyager for Caribbean in March. Love your cruise videos! You seem such a lovely couple 😊
@@ShaM-qk1hh Adriatic Affair is a great itinerary. Sure you will enjoy Voyager too. Thanks appreciate that!
I think you need world map and Google pronunciation apps!😂 Glad you figured out that Corsica was in France…
Lol think we do! 🤣🤣
How is Canada so far?
We are loving it!
I don't remember too much of the four years of Spanish i took, but if it's a Mexican restaurant, wouldn't it be pronounced ab-WAY-las?
Thanks for that! 😃
Hi,
This is not about the video, its just a question your group cruise. We are interested in coming on the group cruise with you, but are concerned that it may be a large number of people within the group. We have been on cruises where there have been large groups where they take over restaurants or cafes, affecting the quality of the cruise for other passengers and wouldn't want to do this to other cruisers. Have you got a numbers restriction on your group or do you have an idea how many will be going ? Sorry to ask this question it makes me sound like a whinger which I hope I am not, I just want everyone to enjoy themselves.
No problem asking. We have had a LOT of interest in our group cruise, so it will be a large group. We are discussing with Princess about having our group get togethers/Q&A's, etc, in areas that wouldn't impact other passengers. Obviously those in the group will get to know each other and sit together in bars and lounges, but guess that's no different from anyone going on a cruise and meeting fellow passengers and arranging to meet on a ship in venues for drinks etc.
@@PaulandCaroleLovetoTravel thanks very much for your honest reply. Your honesty is why we love watching your videos.
@@keithdavis2580 No problem!
Let me just echo @cherifurr3935's comment regarding the editing on this episode. I'm not sure whether which of you is responsible for the editing, but this episode used many techniques that made this really enjoyable to watch. Super.
Cheerfully,
Mark McDaniel
It is Carole that does the editing, thanks for your kind words, great to hear you enjoyed it!
