One of your best videos todate. You two sure have the right spin on this. Thanks for subtlety putting down that self imposed UTube naysayer who predicted a terrible crossing, the ship’s terrible condition (clearly not) and perceived management issues. Every time you post …. you make my day! Captain Art
Very well said. I watched a video last Wednesday or Thursday about Villa vie Odyssey by a you tuber. **He is not on your ship**. He is somewhere in USA. I made a very nice short comment on how well The Odyssey had done crossing from Africa to The Caribbean. Some man wrote the nastiest comment to me. Normally I would have said nothing, but I wrote a further comment to him. I also said I was unscribing from the Channel ( which I did). Several people wrote comments sticking up for Villa Vie. I am so happy how well she crossed that open sea. Every night I tracked her progress. She was magnificent. I am so happy for everyone lucky enough to be sailing on her.
Much appreciated. It is interesting how everyone expects perfection from a 30 year old ship. Things continue to improve, which is more than I can ask for. Still grateful and thankful to even be here!
@@MidLifeCruising95 I don't think anyone expects perfection. If anything, people seem to expect horror stories. As with most situations, it sounds as if the reality is someplace in the middle. Good luck for continued improvement and great cruising!
I am happy more facilities are opening up on your beautiful ship. Their decision to sail and finish the remaining work whilst on your travels was an excellent idea to avoid keeping you waiting anymore. I loved the Caribbean islands on our cruise, stunning beaches everywhere!
@@MidLifeCruising95I actually take that into consideration when selecting who I support. Not trying to be mean or say they aren’t entitled and I certainly respect what they have done in life, but, for me, I resonate with people that I feel have put everything on the line to achieve their desired change. I feel you both are doing this because it is a dream that you have made happen with careful planning. Your cups are half full, I like that. I like when Steve video’s walking the streets, gives us a good look at the culture. I also love the cabin tours, it really gives a better perspective on what can be done with such a small space.
So pleased you had a great crossing It is getting really cold here and no real sun Seeing the amazing colours of Barbados the sky and buildings cheers me up
Aww I teared up at the flute rendition of AMAZING GRACE 🌈✝️🕊️ …my husband and I went to many towns singing that every Saturday at 3pm during 2020 and 2021 and many folk joined in with us and had touching tales to tell us about the hymn 🌹
I just love how upbeat you both are. The choir song was perfect. I am so glad Steve didn’t get seasick. There is hope for the rest of us. I always have the meds and ginger at hand.
Keep showing what YOU find interesting, it’s all good! Like someone else said, the beer tasting and I don’t miss this, make your videos unique and FUN!
I love the faces ya'll make when you say "MidLife Cruising". Barbados is beautiful. Everyone is having such a good time at all the get togethers. Studio 4030 Deck 4, love it. Gail
Welcome to the Caribbean. Welcome to BIM... Welcome to the heat and rain, lol Mauby is used heavily in te south Caribbean as well. In Trinidad 🇹🇹 we use it daily. Wishing you a lovely time in my Caribbean. Bye friends
This is sailing week in Barbados and a time the tides change - this causes some beach erosion more on the West Coast. Very blustery - which suits the round the island Yacht races. Lots of kite-surfing and hydrofoil and windsurfing competitions.
Sea Turtles love them. I had great memory of paying 20 for a snorkel ride off that beach where you had the beer to swim with them about 10 years back. Glad to see one in your clip.
That crew member's voice singing "Wonderful Tonight"!!!! Can you post a short uncut version? He needs to be promoted to Entertainment for sure❤❤❤. What a talent 👏 🎉😊
It seems to be in good part , about having a great and positive attitude. It is what will make situations tolerable and even better. I appreciate the two of you very much. There are other channels out there, one in particular high jacking the villa vie experience and pointing out every problem and making them a huge deal to create content. I hope all new people finding their way on board your beautiful ship, look for people like the two of you to ensure they make the most of this incredible experience. Being on the maiden voyage of a new company, I am sure there are many changes and bumps along the way but you don’t focus or dwell on any of it. If I was in a position to do a long voyage, I would do it the way you are!!!!!! On a beautiful small ship rather than on a slick, huge impersonal floating city. Blessings to both of you.
Great …..loved the beer tasting and scenes from around Bridgetown….looking forward to seeing the Caribbean sites with you guys….no one compares to your approach
Awesome video, a little bit of everything for everyone. Crystal clear water along the beach, so inviting. Hope you have opportunity for some beach time and fun in the sun. Bloopers and sea turtle favorites. Thanks for taking us along...enjoy the Caribbean!
My favorite video so far! I prayed often for your crossing, so glad it went smoothly. And your song was great! Loved seeing your daily life, and the bloopers at the end! 🤣🤣🤣
This is probably my favorite episode so far and I just 😂🤣 hysterical from the Sounds of Music adaptation. I'm enjoying your adventures and I look forward to your next episode. Safe travels until next time.
This is because I think you both need celtic salt(i get it off Amazon)... it will help keep you both hydrated without messing with your blood pressure or make your feet swell.. I suggest in 20oz of water add 1/8 of a teaspoon in the morning and before bed... it's especially good for warm/hot weather and fast walkers!!! Loads of vidios on youtube about it. Question: do you guys have to go through customs every time you get on and off the boat? Xoxo
Wow! You are so good to us. Thanks so so much! We will need to look into that. We do not go through customs. We have only had immigration board in Dakar to check our passports. Been pretty easy peasy so far.
@MidLifeCruising95 that's good to know! I have a very difficult time staying hydrated.. and table salt messes with my husband's blood pressure so I went diving down the rabbit hole... now we both are hydrated thanks to this celtic salt.. I've got no links or anything I just buy a bag about every five months.. please do look into it! I am not a big fan of waiting in lines at customs or any other line for that matter.. 🤔 so that's love!
As a choral conductor I'm glad to hear you have a chance to sing in a choir while on board. Kudos on your diction - it may have been a silly song, but I could understand every word even without the subtitles. :D
So glad you guys had a smooth crossing! That is a rarity! Loved the lyrics for 'My Favorite Things', what a hoot!!! Tour of Bridgetown was cool as well, it is on my ever growing 'bucket list' of places to visit! Quite a busy port, didn't realize how many cruise ships call on that port! Looking forward to more adventures!!
Great video! You two are the best. Also, I love the song you sang in your choir, so appropriate for people of a certain age ha ha ( which I just might be!)
Another great video. Loved the ending bloopers. I’m a foodie and would love to see some cruise meal reviews or just your favorite options for breakfast lunch and dinner. Thank you for sharing!
Hey friends!! I love the version of my favorite things the choir sang!! Good job! I’m glad you got a nice new pair of tennis shoes! I can’t imagine how tough it must be to find shoes in your size! Have fun in the Caribbean!
All of your videos are my “favorite” ! Loved your choir song, and your reference to KENTUCKY, my home! The churches are amazing. Thanks for my cruise adventure with you, my friends!🛳️🛳️🛳️
We love games, too. On any cruise we always bring our RumnyCub to play every evening between 'happenings'. On river cruises it is particularly lovely to sit on top deck and play while gliding quietly past stunning scenery.
Thank you for your entertaining videos. I am curious if residents are responsible for maintenance or repair costs. For example, condo owners usually have to pay for major repairs and upkeep. Could that be a potential cost for owners? I am enjoying following along on your journey!
"Heah Friends!" So awesome you guys had smooth sailing to the Caribbean I knew you would! ( just ignore the naysayers and busy boddies) that would be one of my favorites to visit the water looks amazing! ❤🚢😎 One of my favorite videos so far, keep them coming! ❤❤❤ PS The choir and that song was the best Lol 😆 Im still laughing...🤣🤣🤣
Speaking of sea sickness, what do you guys do for health insurance when you are outside the states? Do you carry travel insurance too? Thinking about joining you all in San Diego, but have a lot of logistical question. Know you are busy and having fun, so just when you have a minute.
I’m so happy to hear you had a good crossing with no sea sickness! Barbados is a wonderful reward! Great video! Thanks for sharing your experiences, as always! I loved the song in the talent show. We live in The Villages, FL. The people here would love that song!
Love sharing your travels. I have just got off a 3 day cruise from Sydney to Brisbane in Australia and I'm missing the ship life already. Your videos help me overcome that. thanks so much for sharing.
Steve/Angela, sorry if you’ve answered this in a previous video but how many residents are on board now and how many residents can it hold? Love watching the adventure unfold and how things keep getting better on The Villa Vie…congrats on your channel growing🥳🥂🍾
Hi friends, Bloopers are great!! 😂🤣Tfs. Enjoy your busy schedule in the Caribbean. Whatever happened to the “ relaxed, staying in a port for a few days” plan go?
Starting today the next month is all over nights in ports...remember we are on a changed itinerary due to the delay until we catch up to the original starting next month in Panama. Excited for all these 2 dayers!!!
😂😂😂 you guys crack me up. The bloopers were so funny. Glad that the Atlantic crossing wasn’t too bad for you.. I think I would have gotten seasick, especially on Day 6- the sea looked rough 😵💫. The choir was great and the song was hilarious 🤣🤣🤣. Oh, this time there were 2 opportunities for Steve to go “I don’t miss that one bit!” 😂 Hmm… I think there was a bit of bias in the beer rating. 36.6 degrees C is HOT 🥵. Love the sea 🐢 at the end! Hope you continue to have great fun! Thanks for a great video, Friends! ❤❤
???? Question Hey guys, thanks for taking us along, it's been fun to watch the journey! I'm wondering when you go ashore and get a car to take you around, are you arranging that yourself? If yes, what do you use, or how do you do it? It looks like sometimes the ship has organized it, but maybe you have done private, specifically in Barbados and Senegal.
I love how much fun you are both having. Congratulations on the crossing. Transatlantic Crossings are some of my favorite cruises! Have fun in the ☀️ Sun. 💗🙏🏽🇵🇷
To buy us a cup of coffee (or Steve a beer) : buymeacoffee.com/midlifecruising
Why?
Maybe I'm missing something but I can't afford a coffee from a coffee shop let alone a cruise.
Keep up with the "hey friends, " and Steve's "I don't miss that one bit. " These are iconic you, wrapped up in fun, sun, and shipboard life.
That is so kind of you to say! Thanks so much!
I look for Steve's "I don't miss that one bit" in every port video.
@@SueJme too! Hahaha! It’s sooo funny!! And I don’t blame him one bit!! lol!
Ha ha ha !!!!
Right!?!?!

OMG!! That version you guys wrote for “My Favourite Things” Had me rolling on the floor!!!! That was AMAZING!!!
Julie Andrews did the rewrite of the song....so good!
Love watching your videos! Steve cracks me up whenever he sees a police car and says he doesn't miss that. Too funny.
That is his "thing" for sure.
Awesome to hear Villa Vie had a safe and enjoyable transatlantic! 😊
Thanks, Kevin! Appreciate it!
I am happy more facilities are opening up on your beautiful ship. Their decision to sail and finish the remaining work whilst on your travels was an excellent idea to avoid keeping you waiting anymore. I loved the Caribbean islands on our cruise, stunning beaches everywhere!
We agree! Loving the Caribbean so far...just stunning!
I belly laughted,your song ,spot on!! At 73 it hit the mark! Glad everyone is finding their group.
Thanks you so much! Glad you belly laughed!!!
Well done Angela....loved the lyrics 😂😂😂😂
Thanks...we had a blast!
So pleased you had a great crossing. Love the lyrics to the song and the bloopers at the end 🤣 Enjoy the Caribbean!
Thanks so much! 😊
So happy that your transatlantic crossing was uneventful. Enjoy your times in the Caribbean!
Thank you so much!
With all the new vloggers on the ship, I just want you to know you two are my favorite! Glad you two are having fun!
You're the best! Very much appreciated! All those rich vloggers cutting into our profit....ha ha ha

Enjoyed the supermarket visit plus, as usual, Steve's reaction to passing police vehicles.
Thanks 👍 He loves doing that!

Much appreciated!
The bloopers made me giggle. 😂 Have a great time in the Caribbean!
Thank you! Will do!

We had a blast! Thanks!
Banks is the original local beer.
Deputy was introduced by the same brewery about 8 or so years ago.
Awesome! I think Steve had them both.
thanks for such great videos - we armchair travelers salute you!
Thanks for watching!

Will do. We backed off of so much food filming, but we will bring it back!! Thank you so much!
Great episode. I love seeing ship life!

Thank you for your entertaining videos. I am curious if residents are responsible for maintenance or repair costs. For example, condo owners usually have to pay for major repairs and upkeep. Could that be a potential cost for owners? I am enjoying following along on your journey!
We do have monthly fees in the program we chose. If something breaks, they fix it though.
Thanks. Enjoyed that crossing vicariously. I am jealous. What a great life and I bet Belfast seems a lifetime ago !
Glad you enjoyed it...it does seem like forever ago!
"Heah Friends!" So awesome you guys had smooth sailing to the Caribbean I knew you would! ( just ignore the naysayers and busy boddies) that would be one of my favorites to visit the water looks amazing! ❤🚢😎 One of my favorite videos so far, keep them coming! ❤❤❤ PS The choir and that song was the best Lol 😆 Im still laughing...🤣🤣🤣
Thanks so much. Having a blast!
Congrats on your first atlantic crossing !
Thank you so much 😀
Forgot to mention your choir was really good …. so cute!
Oh thank you! Fun times!
Speaking of sea sickness, what do you guys do for health insurance when you are outside the states? Do you carry travel insurance too? Thinking about joining you all in San Diego, but have a lot of logistical question. Know you are busy and having fun, so just when you have a minute.
We have insurance through Nicaragua which is our primary home. So many aboard have all different types and companies...definitely a hot topic.
I love to see your adventures. It would be neat to see a "what we spend in a day" on port days.
Literally tracking every day...plan to do a month long report. Great minds think alike.
Love love love your song! Have fun!
Thanks! We had a great time!!
I’m so happy to hear you had a good crossing with no sea sickness! Barbados is a wonderful reward! Great video! Thanks for sharing your experiences, as always! I loved the song in the talent show. We live in The Villages, FL. The people here would love that song!
Love it! We have some Villages people here aboard.
@@MidLifeCruising95 That’s awesome! We have talked about your lifestyle! Hello to our Villages people from the Village of Hawkins!
Woo hoo!!!
Love sharing your travels. I have just got off a 3 day cruise from Sydney to Brisbane in Australia and I'm missing the ship life already. Your videos help me overcome that. thanks so much for sharing.
Glad you like them! May be time for you to book another...hee hee
Nice video Angela & Steve. I enjoyed watching!
Glad you enjoyed it!
You guys are the best!
Much appreciated!!
Steve/Angela, sorry if you’ve answered this in a previous video but how many residents are on board now and how many residents can it hold?
Love watching the adventure unfold and how things keep getting better on The Villa Vie…congrats on your channel growing🥳🥂🍾
Hard to keep track... people coming and going...feels more full, maybe 200? Think they want to cap at 600ish?
There are so many people vlogging in Ville Vie! This is the best one though ❤
Glad you think so! Much appreciated!!!
I love seeing Barbados! I’m in Seattle and it’s the start of our gray drizzly season. I’ll be living vicariously through you!
Ooh, stay warm and dry!!! Thanks!
Look forward to yr videos. Xx from Australia 🇦🇺

???? Question
Hey guys, thanks for taking us along, it's been fun to watch the journey! I'm wondering when you go ashore and get a car to take you around, are you arranging that yourself? If yes, what do you use, or how do you do it? It looks like sometimes the ship has organized it, but maybe you have done private, specifically in Barbados and Senegal.
The ship does have an excursion coordinator. We have done our own. We hired a taxi that day.
Wow. They have more cereal in Barbados than we have in our local store in the US.
Steve was shocked about the pricing! All imported...
I love how much fun you are both having. Congratulations on the crossing. Transatlantic Crossings are some of my favorite cruises! Have fun in the ☀️ Sun. 💗🙏🏽🇵🇷
Much appreciated. Thanks so much!
