Forgive me but this just might be the historian in me but this might help you with your assessment on pirates. Not all pirates operated outside of the law. I realize that in pop culture when we talk about the golden age of pirates from the mid 17th century to late 18th century they are usually in the image of Jack Sparrow. However there was a such of thing as legal privateers that operated in mostly the Caribbean that actually got permission from the crown & had legal documents saying that they could be privateers AKA pirates. The reason why the pop culture image of pirates became popular is is the same reason why the stories of the old west & figures such as Billy the Kid became popular, because it sells & the more nuanced stories don’t.
Tigers blood is the BEST flavor, it’s a combination of pina colada, strawberry, and watermelon. I always get it anytime I see it and I can confirm it contains no traces of tiger blood😂 love you guys and your content!!🎉
It was so nice to meet you both at Playmakers!! Sorry to crash your party, I still can’t believe the waiter sat at the end of your table. Thank you for the magnets, I will display them proudly on my future cruises.
That duck you found had a Christmas ornament attached to it! I would have LOVED to find that duck! I collect ornaments in every trip we take. So cool that someone made and gifted that!
One of these videos you should seriously take out all your clothes and souvenirs that you’ve gotten on your cruises and show us (members only video?). I bet you have an entire closet full. I’m jealous! Lol
I was on Harmony of the Seas next to Utopia. They are very similar. Same slides. Same almost everything. The paint color and some of the finishing touches were different, but It was basically the same from what I could see. That and the sports decks were updated nicely. I would love to sail on Utopia as well. I just wish they would update the Central Park layout a bit. It's nice, don't get me wrong, but it would be cool to see some unique features that set the ships apart
Oh, I was so mad when I got that departure alert on our RC cruise on Allure last month. I was like, I’m not clicking on that, I don’t want to think about leaving already!
Thank you for another amazing cruise! You two are the best! 💗💙 Dinner time question: You live in Florida, where it is hot all year! How could you possibly wear all of the hoodies you get?? 😂🤩😍
Okay let's be honest After the question of the night, me and my wife had to go back a bunch of times to rewatch your guys' explanations of pirate night, it is the funniest thing I've heard in a long time. And sadly, the truth just never looked at it that way. I vote 🗳 Gangsters night on Disney! I'm sure Iger would love his ships 🚢 in the media for having gangster take overs at sea.
What’s amazing is that Allure was ahead of its time so much that 14-15 years later the latest Utopia ship is still the same class and general size and layout but shinier and more colorful! I’ve watched several of your videos on Utopia and I’m not sure I like the new location of Windjammer. Maybe I would think differently in person but I like where it’s at on Allure a little better.
You guys love desert so much you should look into finding a cool dog. I just found out about it and it looks delicious. The bun is a cake, in the Hot dog is the ice cream like a Sunday.
Hey Brian and Kerry, I love your videos. Thanks for sharing your adventures! Are you planning to visit the Royal Railway Utopia Station? It seems like a great experience.
OMG I so hope they are filming a new Royal Caribbean romance! Shipping Julia is the best worst movie ever! They are horrible but perfect for an exhausted sunburnt evening in the cabin after a long beach day. 🤷🏻♀️🤣
Just finished watching Jordan Bauth’s video of this cruise…when you said oh there’s another Oasis class ship next to us, I’m calling out “it’s Allure” lol.
How much of the food you had in this video is included and how much is an up charge? I've never been on royal, is there somewhere to go that lists the included restaurants/foods?
Sad about shave ice…was hoping for Hawaiian experience 😞 I think you have finally talked us into Royal 😁 like going out of port Canaveral…do you suggest back to back or side to side if we can get on another Royal or celebrity short cruise the same day🤷🏻♀️ (Traveling too far to do 3/4 days ).
I was a Merchant Marine on cargo ships for 12 years. Pirates were no joke. It was like driving through a bad neighborhood when we were passing through the areas, they were prevalent. We used fire hoses to prevent them from getting on board. Not a fan of pirates. Even the legal ones still seemed a little sketchy to me.
I'm now nervous that they'll change the recipe for the Bubble Cones since you put them in the "Cruise Food Hall of Fame". Every RC dessert that ends up on the list seems to get altered.
@@JacksonJetsetting you have to put your money in it then come back in five minutes. Your money will be gone and your glass of wine will appear. I've actually used these many times and home-made wine in Europe can be amazing. So can the stuff made in my basement.
Dinnertime questions: question 1: why did both of you start cruising together? Question 2: why do both of you choose to go on cruises instead of going onland vacations? Question 3: Will either of you ever go on solo cruises? Question 4: will both of you ever go on land vacations as a couple & as singles? Question 5 & Last question: would you ever choose to go on land vacations over going on cruises?
The windjammer is where the sport court is on utopia/wonder and sport court is the floor of the windjammer on the older ships. They flipped the floor of windjammer and sport court on the newer ships. They wanted the windjammer to be more easy accessible and have more seating so they moved it down to the pool deck .
Dinner time question: What has been the most expensive cruise you've gone on and was it worth the price? And what was the least expensive cruise you went on and did it exceed your expectations?
I’m sure you are aware now but when comparing Utopia with Allure, you mentioned the smoke from Allure but not Utopia. Isn’t Utopia fulled with Liquid Gas and therefore will not have smoke
We didn’t “meet” him, but right after the Giovanni’s dinner, we saw Dermot inside the restaurant and I took a creepy over-the-shoulder picture of him 🤣
Can't you just eat the chicken and the dumplings with your hands? It's so weird to me that they would hand out utensils for those lol. Those lights are cute but I'm surprised they're allowing that. Usually you can't hang anything off the balconies.
The swag. It seems that people that already put up their videos got different swag than what you’ve gotten. They must be putting out different swag for different floors? You even got different hats on the first day. Everybody else I saw got baseball caps and you guys got hats.
I think it was different items for the inaugural cruise and the previous (travel agent) cruise. Most of the people I saw that went on the inaugural had the same hat as them

I love Brian’s obsession with croutons 😆
So great to see random recess and ordinary adventures in the vlog 🎉
"Connoisseur, no snob is better", awesome! You two are very witty. Thanks again for another great video!
I love watching your videos and feeling like I’m on vacation through you guys 😂
Definitely my fav cruise vloggers!
Tigers blood is the BEST flavor, it’s a combination of pina colada, strawberry, and watermelon. I always get it anytime I see it and I can confirm it contains no traces of tiger blood😂 love you guys and your content!!🎉
Brian I think most guys have their girlfriend or wife as their lock screen sir lol (as a man married nearly 10 years at 33)
My husband replaced me with our dogs and honestly fair
@@kelseymiller6146 honestly sus
I have been married 35 years. My husband has always had our dog as Lock Screen. lol
When I was married I always had my dogs or my daughter as my lockscreen and screensaver, never my husband. Not why we got divorced btw😉😅
As the self proclaimed designated Pirate of the Views and Queues Channel, I approve of their message
You’re our favorite pirate! 🏴☠️ 😍

Love your videos, new subscriber. Are the places you guys eat at included or any of them extra specialty dining?

Brian @ 1:55 - fellow blank black screen user here. You're not alone! 😁
Thank you for sharing! Great time!
Oh, I was so mad when I got that departure alert on our RC cruise on Allure last month. I was like, I’m not clicking on that, I don’t want to think about leaving already!
😮 Dinner time question:
Brian, where on earth do you store all of your full zip hoodies??
They really need to work on their design for that water slide. I feel like nobody ever makes it down all the way without having to move themselves.
same on the Harmony. I think they just need to add a few water jets on the bowl to help push people along.
Fun vlog,I'm on that ship in three weeks,can't wait.
Thank you for another amazing cruise! You two are the best! 💗💙 Dinner time question: You live in Florida, where it is hot all year! How could you possibly wear all of the hoodies you get?? 😂🤩😍
DINNER-TIME Question: When you need to cancel a booking, do you typically have travel insurance ? If so, do you purchase the insurance thru Royal ?
I booked Giovanni’s just for the terrace but did it during sunset so it would be cooler out. I cant wait!
I really wanna go on this ship! Need some money first, oh and vacation time lol. Living that American dream
Thanks for another great video. On a side note, Utopia is LNG powered vs diesel powered Allure which has that exhaust smoke. Clean vs Diesel

Brian, love your answer for the pirates. Great to understand your point of view. 👏
have you tried the royal blogs chicken parm sandwich hack? if not, it is the famous chicken sandwich topped with mozzarella sticks and marinara!!
I will be taking my first ever RC cruise in January on Liberty I’ve only got MSC to compare Royal Caribbean to
next level buddy..
@@millmoormichael6630 MSC is garbage I can assure you of that I’ve heard a lot of good about RC
Evelyn and I have Utopia booked next spring for a B2B! Nice to watch your cruise
I’m thinking the crouton is just the unused garlic knots cut up and toasted. 😉 thoughts?
So excited to see this video
Great Jim Gaffigan bit on kids dressing up as pirates. Highly recommend a listen.
hahaha yes!! saw this years ago - this is probably how i was enlightened about pirates!
You guys love desert so much you should look into finding a cool dog. I just found out about it and it looks delicious. The bun is a cake, in the Hot dog is the ice cream like a Sunday.
I love watching your vids. Kerry, gorgeous dress you wore to Giovannis ❤
Hey Brian and Kerry, I love your videos. Thanks for sharing your adventures! Are you planning to visit the Royal Railway Utopia Station? It seems like a great experience.
Dinner time question have you ever been in a cruise emergency like pirates or the boat loses power
Peter is really looking healthy these days, so happy for him!
OMG @OrdinaryAdventures!!!! Kitra wearing an *NSYNC shirt made my freaking day!
Love her NSYNC shirt (ordinary adventures) ty for the video! LOVE WATCHING your videos!
Thanks for the tip about the list of questions on the website!
OMG I so hope they are filming a new Royal Caribbean romance! Shipping Julia is the best worst movie ever! They are horrible but perfect for an exhausted sunburnt evening in the cabin after a long beach day. 🤷🏻♀️🤣
I'm a big fan of the Blueberry Nojito mocktail, but that's about it for Royal's mocktails
I love your you tube. Can’t wait for one to come out! Y’all should do a podcast!!!
18:30… interesting choice of location for Giovanni’s…on Oasis of the Seas, that location is actually the Music Hall
You guys make great videos!! I was wondering if you guys ever gone on smaller Royal ships like Vision of the Seas?
They did explorer in Europe last year
Just finished watching Jordan Bauth’s video of this cruise…when you said oh there’s another Oasis class ship next to us, I’m calling out “it’s Allure” lol.
Were you two throwing Shade at Lookout cay? 15:20 😂
How much of the food you had in this video is included and how much is an up charge? I've never been on royal, is there somewhere to go that lists the included restaurants/foods?

Where did you get your blue off the shoulder dress? I love it and I need one. ❤❤❤
Amazon! I think the exact pattern I got a few years ago is gone, but here’s a link to the same brand: a.co/d/2iYpYsR
Thank you!!! 🥰
Dinnertime question: Do you like Icon or Utopia of the seas more
Congratulations… you’re the first out of four bloggers to figure out how to open the Vino door. Pull Hard.
I feel glad I figured this out lol
@@JacksonJetsetting you must of been very thirsty.
@@GentlemanMcmike I thought it would’ve been cool if there was actually wine behind the door haha
@@JacksonJetsetting you have to put your money in it then come back in five minutes. Your money will be gone and your glass of wine will appear.
I've actually used these many times and home-made wine in Europe can be amazing. So can the stuff made in my basement.
34:46…Yay! Shout out to the great Chris Kidder!
Royally Imperfect is probably the name of the next romcom by Royal ;P you should have hung out trying to be background people
Those 6 shrugs before the hall of fame LOL :D
I’m curious to know how y’all feel about the railroad restaurant being considered a family activity and it centered around the wild West?
Tigers blood is my favorite 😅😅
edit: also, where does Utopia fit on your list of ships you did?
Where did Brian get the Royal Caribbean vineyard vines shirt at?
on Icon of the Seas!
@@Views-And-Queues thanks did you see any on utopia?
That Starbucks came in clutch the whole cruise 😂
it really did!
Dinner time question
If you could have one superpower, what would it be?
Dinner time question: why the blanket on the cruise?
Brian is so sassy like my boyfriend he would totally yell at me for mistaking the Stanley 😅
What is the trick to not getting stuck in the toilet bowl water slide? You guys have to figure this out for us 🤔
I think Royal should hire a mathematician to determine the ideal height to weight ratio to get you perfectly at opening each time
Utopia is being powered by LNG, and Allure is older and getting their upgrade I think next year.
Utopia is very similar to Wonder !! Like it a lot :)
My phones lock screen is also black
Yay!!!!
Dinnertime questions: question 1: why did both of you start cruising together? Question 2: why do both of you choose to go on cruises instead of going onland vacations?

They had a bird on Icon called Marty in Basecamp. Brian is the cousin. Samething. He sings and talks.
Fullsail. I forgot to comment my code...Uh oh...
Dinner time question: what is your favorite Taylor Swift song/era? I always hear you guys mention her lol
The windjammer is where the sport court is on utopia/wonder and sport court is the floor of the windjammer on the older ships.
They flipped the floor of windjammer and sport court on the newer ships. They wanted the windjammer to be more easy accessible and have more seating so they moved it down to the pool deck .
Love your videos and really enjoying the crossover episodes with Ordinary Adventures.
Octagonal not hexagonal. Math teachers heart breaking. lol. Love your vlogs.
Allure is scheduled to go to dry dock in early 2025 for $165 million amplification.
Dinner time question: What has been the most expensive cruise you've gone on and was it worth the price? And what was the least expensive cruise you went on and did it exceed your expectations?
I’m sure you are aware now but when comparing Utopia with Allure, you mentioned the smoke from Allure but not Utopia. Isn’t Utopia fulled with Liquid Gas and therefore will not have smoke
No sprinkles at Sprinkles? 😮🤯🤯
I’m a bit confused. I recall your love for Allure, Sabor, the Taylor Swift moment…
We still love Allure!
Ummm I think that Starbucks order was mine! Why would you take that Brian with an I
my dog is my phone background
Did you meet Dermot Mulroney and/or Malin Ackerman? I’m fully expecting you to be extras in the movie ⭐️
We didn’t “meet” him, but right after the Giovanni’s dinner, we saw Dermot inside the restaurant and I took a creepy over-the-shoulder picture of him 🤣
Can't you just eat the chicken and the dumplings with your hands? It's so weird to me that they would hand out utensils for those lol. Those lights are cute but I'm surprised they're allowing that. Usually you can't hang anything off the balconies.
Oh hey 👋
The real question is do you have beef with captain jack sparrow
Dinner Question:
Would you ever go on an all inclusive luxury cruise?
🥰😍🤩🤩🤩
Dinner Time question!: what made you two decide to have a very small wedding with like 12 guests??❤
3rd!!!! Yayyy can't wait to watch
Only psychopaths have blank backgrounds on their phones. 😂
The swag. It seems that people that already put up their videos got different swag than what you’ve gotten. They must be putting out different swag for different floors? You even got different hats on the first day. Everybody else I saw got baseball caps and you guys got hats.
I think it was different items for the inaugural cruise and the previous (travel agent) cruise. Most of the people I saw that went on the inaugural had the same hat as them
I think it would be more wise to maybe hide the ducks late at night with less people around…
My phone screen is Steven Universe….is that weird?
Hello True Blood Pastor
You're so funny about the pirate take 🤣
Looks like a nice trip and I love your speed uploading the video Brain! 😃
Whats tha matter with him? No girl pic on the lock screen? He is not happy about something, better find out what it is LOL!
