I took my daughter to Australia Zoo for her birthday as she is OBSESSED with Robert Irwin. They weren’t even supposed to be there that day but they ended up doing to main show which was a total surprise & my daughter just burst into tears she was so happy.
More than just happenstance. Truly, a rich unfolding of what the universe had in store for your daughter. That memory will be cherished forever. Cheers from your Commonwealth sibling in Canada.
My former partner and I were incredibly lucky when we visited. It was Boxing Day and we weren't expecting to see Steve, but he did the show and on the big screen was Teri and Bindi and baby Bob beaming in from America, which Steve wasn't expecting; it was very emotional. He passed away the following August.
Go ahead and treat yourselves to an upscale experience. You deserve it as you work so hard. Don't let anyone get you down. It is nice to see all kind of experiences.
We were on this cruise with you in fact our son is in the video! Many of the suites are very close to the retreat facilities so its more a function of the room’s location.
Your first meal onboard...A traditional Ukrainian borscht soup is made with beets not tomatoes, beef shank, onions, carrots, potatoes, cabbage, and dill, then topped with a dollop of sour cream....but hey..whatever rocks their boat !😆Nice cruise, can‘t wait to see what comes next!🌟
I was shocked he said he’d never heard of it. I think he called it Bosht. I’m from a part of Canada that doesn’t have a huge Eastern European population, but it’s still a popular soup served lots of places.
Russia , Poland , Finland and many other uses it also . Also grind it the beets with spices and dry them a bit in dehydrator is a trick to make the beets keep colour and not bleed it out snd make it pale .
Thank you for loving Sydney as much as you do. Born and raised here and seeing it through your eyes is so bloody great! Thank you for being authentically you, don’t ever change ❤
Sailing out of Sydney was spectacular! Ben… congratulations on your healthy weight loss! You both look great! Not easy with all of your cruise ship adventures.
When I was visiting Rome I was so stunned how the locals didn’t even look up when our bus went past the colosseum 😮. I lived in Sydney for many years and took its beauty for granted. Then I said ‘Men are from Melbourne’ and happily married 13 years later. 🎉❤ Love you guys xx
I am so thankful that Ben and David show what it wld be like to be in a suite. It’s like I can be there without paying the price for a look! Thanks guys!
So excited for this video. We had to cancel a trip with Celebrity and I was really looking forward to our trip so I will sail vicariously with you guys!!
Hello again both. I get sick just looking at a ship so know I definitely cannot go on a cruise. Your wonderful videos bring me great pleasure, I’m really enjoying my experience with you. This particular sail away is amazing, so smooth you didn’t even realise you were moving. It’s a bit too late for me to consider booking a cruise but you are convincing me that this one is perfect. Love your banter, you are a perfect couple.
I get sea sick in bad weather, but the cruise ships do sell sea sickness tablets like “bonine” which I found works a treat, you take them an hour before sailing or whenever you know bad weather is coming up
Love you guys Ben and David! You both are so fun, jolly, funny and have such great positive attitude. Love the occasional banter between the two of you, it just cracked me up. Really enjoyed watching your videos because you both made it so so interesting with delightful descriptions. Thank You so much!! 😍
We spent 10 days on the Beyond in a Sky Suite last April. And this year, we are in another Sky Suite for Ascent’s transatlantic to Rome. Then splurged to continue on for the next 11 day cruise. We are so excited, but Celebrity has raised the prices so much that we will never be able to afford a Suite again. Love Luminae!
Excellent show guys. Glad you wrapped your laughing gear around a Golden Gaytime. They are absolutely fantastical. I get to “sail away” from Sydney most days, commuting on the Manly ferry. Too beautiful to ever get boring.
Greetings gentleman! I’m a big fan of Celebrity . I’ve been on a European/Mediterranean cruise and a few Caribbean cruises with them and all were excellent. Very enjoyable and fun video as always 😎😎😎
Wow! Such great timing! I have been looking for newer videos on celebrity edge since me and my parents have booked a new zealand cruise on Celebrity Edge! Such perfect timing! Thanks again guys!!
I love the different types of staterooms in your vlogs. They show the different levels that are available and what you can find and book. Thank you. Oh and Im sailing Celebrity Reflection in May for an agent Learning at Sea!
❤I’m so glad that you have gotten to experience Aussies at their finest. We are kind and friendly and always love to chat with people from other countries. Thank you for this video. I really will have to look into this one as it looks very special indeed
Lads! That small touch screen in the hallway, the one where you said it controlled the lights! Well... it is a dimmer! Use it to increase the light in the hall and the bathroom!
In the moment of impulsive eating sensations, yes, it can feel inconvenient that the Suite Lounge is not next door to your Suite. However, this is absolutely wonderful from the long-term perspective, because it encourages guests to WALK a lot more versus the common trends of sedentary lifestyles. Just by using stairs instead of elevators, and walking from place to place throughout the ship, cruise-vacations can be inherently healthy and promote fitness. You have not mentioned the Fitness Centre or whether you even use it, but that is one of the best-kept secrets of cruise-ships: the gyms and spas are first-class in equipment, in cleanliness, and in service.
I will never be able to afford a cruise so it is lovely to watch your programme and experience them vicariously. Truthfully l never fancy any type of organized trip, being told when l must leave a place l like or have to wait in places l do not!
Great content!!! Always enjoy it!!! I’m sure Celebrity has updated the Retreat section by now. NOTE: You can always request a different meal from another restaurant if you aren’t satisfied with the selection of the day/evening. ❤
Love your Chanel . As far as letting the Butler unpack and even better pack everything for you I feel is definitely 💯 OK 👍🏻. But be sure to give everyone that you deal with every day . Such as the cabin steward and Butler a generous extra Gratuity.
I loved this video! We sailed Apex last year for a 4 day taster and it’s now sailing out of Southampton 🎉 what a game changer in the cruise industry. We were avid p and o cruises but now will not go back. Looking forward to our 2 weeks on apex this September. Would love to try beyond, ascent and the new excel. Can’t wait to watch all your content on these in the coming weeks ❤
LOVE all your content boys! 🥰 Looks like a fabulous ship and it is so wonderful to see you both enjoying my home country. ☺️😎 I personally like it that you show a variety of different cruise experiences, from the basic right up to the luxury! 😊 That helps us out here to get a good picture of what is available. You do an AWESOME job and we appreciate you HEAPS!! Keep up the fantastic work! 💞
The Retreat looks lovely. The Edge class ships lack any forward facing public areas aside from the Retreat. We can’t afford that, but look forward to cruising on the Xcel way at the end of 2026, a year after its maiden voyage. Love your content, and getting to vicariously vacation with you, especially looking at all the snow outside. Enjoy your travels! 🍹🍨🫖🥂🍣
Could you tell us how excited you were Ben😂😂 Was going to take a drink for everytime you said it but would have been drunk after the 1st 15 minutes. Glad you enjoyed being Down Under🇦🇺🇦🇺🦘🦘👍👍❤️❤️
I can almost say i've been in Australia now... what a lovely blig. No one does it like you guys. Ben, love this linen shirt during the ratings and dinner. Been looking for one like this all my life.
If you live in Australia 🇦🇺 or visit here . Specially in Queensland go to a Target shop , that’s where I got my husband two linen shirts short sleeve 1x white & 1 x light Blue both under $40 au pricing
This video is bringing back lovely memories. Me and my little girl went on a Greek Islands cruise on Edge in 2019 and it was amazing. Looking forward to Celebrity Apex from Southampton next year 🚢
Love your videos, and love the little ship animation at the end of each episode, always makes me smile. Could you please let me know what the music is?
YAY, good for you!!! I was on Celebrity Edge in August and she's BEAUTIFUL, I can't wait to watch this! (I've gone on two cruises, 20 years apart, very different destinations, very different ships, found your channel while preparing for Alaska cruise in August. This ship might have convinced me to do another cruise.). OK, now that I've watched the video...... I think I'd pick my 8th floor veranda room all over again. It was cozy and view was unobstructed, nothing in front, no overhang, nothing from the sides. & agree, the crew is 100/100. I didn't get the drinks package but I did pre-pay for bottled water to be stored in my room & I would do that again as well.
31:30 Omg, David you bout had me crying at your sincere thank you to Australia! Wow, that’s what makes you guys so special, one minute I’m about in tears and the next I’m cracking up laughing! I honestly never had wanted to go on a cruise, but now I’d absolutely love to!!! Love you too Ben, your food analogies have me in tears with laughter!!
Borscht is wonderful! It's eastern European - Ukrainian, Russian, etc. You're right that it's a good winter soup; in fact, I had it the other day when it was about 0º F here. But you can also have it cold in the summer. My only issue with having someone else do my unpacking is that I wouldn't know where to look for things.
As a Mennonite, borscht is a wonderful root veggie stoup/puree. Our church has a borscht supper a few times each year, and borscht with crusty bread is such a treat.
We did the Retreat on their older ship Silhouette and it was amazing. A trip of a lifetime. I do enjoy the Celebrity product. The customer service was phenomenal and i still dream of Luminae food! I want to go back!
Absolutely Lovely, really really lovely. Ok it is on the list. Thank you Ben and David! Loving your videos. Subscribed last year and love all of your content! Virtual hugs and kisses!
In Luminae, you can ask for anything from the specialty restaurants or main dining room, ahd they will do anything to accommodate. One night, they brought me Indian food they thought I would enjoy!
I was afraid to watch this video because I’ve booked an eighteen day cruise on The Edge out of Sydney on April 20/25. I’m so glad you gave it a good review so far and I’m looking forward to watching your final review of The Edge coming up. Please, please like it 🙏🙏🙏 for my sake. Lol
What a great video. I enjoy your content so much. I look forward to Sunday every week. I hope you are both doing well. You both are looking very fit & happy, congratulations.
Lovely video to wind down after work. Thank you. Also appreciate the fact that you show the shore activities ass well. The quality of the footage is very good 👍
This cruise looks amazing. I went on Carnival last November and never again. Never. Was it really that uncrowded? Everywhere we went there were crowds and lines. We really enjoy your videos. Thanks for taking us along.
Hi, guys--Lemme start by saying you have *always* been our go-to channel, esp. when we consider a new line or ship...you are easily the best (Gary who, LOL/JK)! You may be the 2 hardest-working cruise content providers ever! WITH THAT SAID: With the recent high-end cabins you've chosen (like this one), you could be alienating many of your subscribers who either can't (or in our case, wouldn't) pay for this luxury level of amenities. Good on you for being able afford this type of opulence, but please think about us "normals" as you create your content!
I agree 100% - great reviews but first class suites are not easily accessible to many and so we aren’t getting feel for what we would experience on this ship
Totally agree, it's nice to see how the other half live! OCCASIONALLY! but it's getting a bit samey! It's nice to come along on a big birthday or anniversary but this is making us feel like we don't belong here! On top of that you used to say about pateon at the end of the video, now it seems like all you do is say "oh you can see this on our patreon" constantly! I know you need money to keep cruising but please it's getting too much! Sorry but sometimes someone needs to say something! 😢
My first contract working on cruise ships I was on the celebrity millennium sailing from Sydney. Circular Quay is one of the best docking ports in the world for sure
Not sure whether it can be done on the Edge class but on the “S” class you can select from the main dining room menu if there is nothing you fancy on the Luminae menu.
Thank you for this video- this may help convince my husband to try Celebrity!! We have tried NCL’s Haven and will be going on MSC’s YC this year so super happy to get both your thoughts on the Retreat 💕
I'm booked on the celebrity edge for an Alaskan Cruise in Sept, I loved the video, I'm so excited for my first ever cruise and I love yer videos keep up the good work.
Just FYI.. on Celebrity the Sky Suite is the Jr. Suite :-) they get bigger and better from there.. :-) You missed out in Laminae.. you don’t have to order just from the menu they have you can order form any menu at any restaurant.. they will go and get it for you… I hate fish and on Fish night at Luminae, i ordered a Filet Mignot with Pepper corn sauce, Double baked baked potato.. and it arrive at same time as the rest of the table.. so impressive.. you missed out on a feature .. think that might have upped your Luminae to a 5 out of 5.. anything you want to eat you can.. the menu is just the suggested menu for the night.. FYI..
I am not sure food from other dining rooms available in luminae on Edge class ships because kitchens are at the rear of ship, luminae retreat in front.
We haven’t been on the Edge class yet but have also ordered off any menu, except the specialty dining, of course. They were a bit reluctant to accommodate us with food from Blu but I guess since we were staying in the Penthouse, we received what we wanted. We did thank them profusely.
Yes, maybe I am misunderstanding, but I thought that on Celebrity ships - the Sky Suite is their junior?? That would explain some of the things you’ve described but at the same time I feel like I need to go and reread their website because there are so many small nuanced differences between the cruise lines. It’s hard to keep track. Lol
I’ve not been on a cruise, but I have seen those side tables before. Usually they are meant to have the lids flipped upside down when you have a flat surface and sometimes they will be recessed so that things don’t roll off. Then if you need it as an extra chair, you flip the lid again and you have a cushy spot to sit.
I really wish I was able to meet you guys in Sydney! But I had something come up unexpectedly that day so was unable to 😢 Hopefully next time when you guys are in Sydney again!

To what end? @@davidc5191
You look great Ben. Very healthy and happy. Nice job on all the hard work.
Thank you for loving Sydney as much as you do. Born and raised here and seeing it through your eyes is so bloody great! Thank you for being authentically you, don’t ever change ❤
"You can't put that in the video" - I laughed out loud!
I love you guys. You're adorable! 🥰
I think Borscht is beets….I am hoping for such a trip! Thanks for all the great content! You guys are terrific
Always entertaining to watch your videos guys... keep on cruising. Love from Canada.
Yay! I have been having Withdrawals from your content. I've been watching old videos!
Blessings to y'all!
Sailing out of Sydney was spectacular! Ben… congratulations on your healthy weight loss! You both look great! Not easy with all of your cruise ship adventures.

Just go add…have been married for 13 years. He snapped me up quite quickly 😉
I am so thankful that Ben and David show what it wld be like to be in a suite. It’s like I can be there without paying the price for a look! Thanks guys!
You both are such a ray of sunshine. Thank you for sharing you honest opinions!
Really appreciate your remarks! We’ve thought about a Celebrity cruise and your remarks will help with our decision.
So excited for this video. We had to cancel a trip with Celebrity and I was really looking forward to our trip so I will sail vicariously with you guys!!

Fantastic tour of the ship and stateroom. Love you guys❤
Excellent show guys. Glad you wrapped your laughing gear around a Golden Gaytime. They are absolutely fantastical.
I get to “sail away” from Sydney most days, commuting on the Manly ferry. Too beautiful to ever get boring.
Getting massive ‘Lifestyle Of the Rich & Famous’ vibes on the Intro 😃👍
39:36 "Slap me with a farmer, and call me a cornflake" Did I get that right!? I love you guys, too funny!😅

Lads! That small touch screen in the hallway, the one where you said it controlled the lights! Well... it is a dimmer! Use it to increase the light in the hall and the bathroom!
Your RedLight review of the bathroom window was hilariously 😅
"uploaded 11 minutes ago" feels wrong. Love the edge, its been my favorite ship ive been on so far, time to watch this entire video now!

Thank you so much❤
Great content!!! Always enjoy it!!! I’m sure Celebrity has updated the Retreat section by now.

Love your Chanel . As far as letting the Butler unpack and even better pack everything for you I feel is definitely 💯 OK 👍🏻. But be sure to give everyone that you deal with every day . Such as the cabin steward and Butler a generous extra Gratuity.
A trip to Sydney and a cruise are my biggest bucket list item. Thank you for taking us along!
I loved this video! We sailed Apex last year for a 4 day taster and it’s now sailing out of Southampton 🎉 what a game changer in the cruise industry. We were avid p and o cruises but now will not go back. Looking forward to our 2 weeks on apex this September. Would love to try beyond, ascent and the new excel.

Thanks
Looking fit and healthy Ben. Well done.
Ben.
Have you lost weight? Quite noticeable!!. Looking good Ben!!
Love Celebrity! Another excellent video!! So informative, entertaining, and helpful!! Love you both!! 😊❤
I had to laugh when you asked David if he could do the Rose butter at home and he said “no chance “lol. Love it!! what a great ship
Sydney harbour and the Opera House are looking beautiful as always. The ship looks lovely 😊
Hi guys , thanks for all the work you do. I know I'll never go on a cruise but I live the adventure thru you guys and enjoy the humor too !!
I’m going on my first celebrity cruise in June, the Ascent and cannot wait, your video makes me all the more excited 🎉❤😊
LOVE all your content boys! 🥰 Looks like a fabulous ship and it is so wonderful to see you both enjoying my home country. ☺️😎 I personally like it that you show a variety of different cruise experiences, from the basic right up to the luxury! 😊 That helps us out here to get a good picture of what is available. You do an AWESOME job and we appreciate you HEAPS!! Keep up the fantastic work! 💞
The Retreat looks lovely. The Edge class ships lack any forward facing public areas aside from the Retreat. We can’t afford that, but look forward to cruising on the Xcel way at the end of 2026, a year after its maiden voyage. Love your content, and getting to vicariously vacation with you, especially looking at all the snow outside. Enjoy your travels! 🍹🍨🫖🥂🍣
Could you tell us how excited you were Ben😂😂 Was going to take a drink for everytime you said it but would have been drunk after the 1st 15 minutes. Glad you enjoyed being Down Under🇦🇺🇦🇺🦘🦘👍👍❤️❤️
Love this ship!!❤ wow!!
Y’all are wanting me to book in the Retreat. We need to try it at least once in our lives😉🥰
“Reminds me of those windows in Amsterdam you put money in” 😂😂😂😂 T.M.I 😅
Watching from 🇨🇦. Love Celebrity, looking forward to our next cruise!
I’m booked on the Edge in May in Alaska. I can’t wait.
Looking dapper as always guys. You look and feel great. Excellent video mateys xx
I can almost say i've been in Australia now... what a lovely blig. No one does it like you guys. Ben, love this linen shirt during the ratings and dinner. Been looking for one like this all my life.
If you live in Australia 🇦🇺 or visit here . Specially in Queensland go to a Target shop , that’s where I got my husband two linen shirts short sleeve 1x white & 1 x light Blue both under $40 au pricing
I really, really enjoy these suite cruise videos. Hopefully when I next go on a cruise which isn't anytime soon I will go for a suite. ❤
Was hoping to have this come out before going on the Edge for the first time😅 but will be watching it while on board 😁
Wonderful video Ben and David. Thankyou.
This video is bringing back lovely memories. Me and my little girl went on a Greek Islands cruise on Edge in 2019 and it was amazing. Looking forward to Celebrity Apex from Southampton next year 🚢
That hour went by so fast! I can't wait for your next one.
Love your videos, and love the little ship animation at the end of each episode, always makes me smile. Could you please let me know what the music is?
We booked the Xcel next year as well, hope to see you there!
Really? Absolutely! Love it, thanks for all the fun and information. 🥰
I really enjoy watching all your videos! I love getting to see the first class experience, what fun! ❤
Going March 1st on the Apex, can’t wait, love,love Celebrity!
YAY, good for you!!! I was on Celebrity Edge in August and she's BEAUTIFUL, I can't wait to watch this! (I've gone on two cruises, 20 years apart, very different destinations, very different ships, found your channel while preparing for Alaska cruise in August. This ship might have convinced me to do another cruise.).
OK, now that I've watched the video...... I think I'd pick my 8th floor veranda room all over again. It was cozy and view was unobstructed, nothing in front, no overhang, nothing from the sides. & agree, the crew is 100/100. I didn't get the drinks package but I did pre-pay for bottled water to be stored in my room & I would do that again as well.
Oh my god, you’re in Australia again❤❤ next time you’re here let us know and more than happy to take you guys out for dinner❤
Yes we’d love to know when you are here in oz esp qld. I’d drive to meet you both
31:30 Omg, David you bout had me crying at your sincere thank you to Australia! Wow, that’s what makes you guys so special, one minute I’m about in tears and the next I’m cracking up laughing! I honestly never had wanted to go on a cruise, but now I’d absolutely love to!!! Love you too Ben, your food analogies have me in tears with laughter!!

What a great video. I enjoy your content so much. I look forward to Sunday every week. I hope you are both doing well. You both are looking very fit & happy, congratulations.
You both have a wonderful cruise!!! It looks wonderful. 💖💖
I have Henson shaver for about two years now. I will never go back to regular razors. It works so nice. 5 stars.
Lovely video to wind down after work. Thank you. Also appreciate the fact that you show the shore activities ass well. The quality of the footage is very good 👍
This cruise looks amazing. I went on Carnival last November and never again. Never. Was it really that uncrowded? Everywhere we went there were crowds and lines. We really enjoy your videos. Thanks for taking us along.
Omg, what backpack is that, David? I love it!
"David's got some warmed nuts for me..." Laughing so hard! I bet you both are so much fun to hang out with on a cruise - hilarious!
Ooh matron!
Hi, guys--Lemme start by saying you have *always* been our go-to channel, esp. when we consider a new line or ship...you are easily the best (Gary who, LOL/JK)! You may be the 2 hardest-working cruise content providers ever! WITH THAT SAID: With the recent high-end cabins you've chosen (like this one), you could be alienating many of your subscribers who either can't (or in our case, wouldn't) pay for this luxury level of amenities. Good on you for being able afford this type of opulence, but please think about us "normals" as you create your content!
I agree 100% - great reviews but first class suites are not easily accessible to many and so we aren’t getting feel for what we would experience on this ship
I’ve been feeling this way for the last several series from Ben and David. I’m finding it very hard to relate.
Your still seeing the ship and I love seeing the higher end suites I couldn’t afford.
Totally agree, it's nice to see how the other half live! OCCASIONALLY! but it's getting a bit samey! It's nice to come along on a big birthday or anniversary but this is making us feel like we don't belong here! On top of that you used to say about pateon at the end of the video, now it seems like all you do is say "oh you can see this on our patreon" constantly! I know you need money to keep cruising but please it's getting too much! Sorry but sometimes someone needs to say something! 😢
I thought I was the only one not enjoying the objection over towels and stuff - while in a suite
My first contract working on cruise ships I was on the celebrity millennium sailing from Sydney.
Circular Quay is one of the best docking ports in the world for sure
Looking great, Ben ! Keep up the hard work! You two are amazing to watch ❤
Not sure whether it can be done on the Edge class but on the “S” class you can select from the main dining room menu if there is nothing you fancy on the Luminae menu.
Im from Brisbanwe and dang it! I missed out on meeting you guys!!
Thank you for this video- this may help convince my husband to try Celebrity!! We have tried NCL’s Haven and will be going on MSC’s YC this year so super happy to get both your thoughts on the Retreat 💕
I'm booked on the celebrity edge for an Alaskan Cruise in Sept, I loved the video, I'm so excited for my first ever cruise and I love yer videos keep up the good work.
You guys are the greatest threat to the TV Licence
😂
Just FYI.. on Celebrity the Sky Suite is the Jr. Suite :-) they get bigger and better from there.. :-) You missed out in Laminae.. you don’t have to order just from the menu they have you can order form any menu at any restaurant.. they will go and get it for you… I hate fish and on Fish night at Luminae, i ordered a Filet Mignot with Pepper corn sauce, Double baked baked potato.. and it arrive at same time as the rest of the table.. so impressive.. you missed out on a feature .. think that might have upped your Luminae to a 5 out of 5.. anything you want to eat you can.. the menu is just the suggested menu for the night.. FYI..
I wish our waiter had told us that! I said several times I wasn't keen on the choices!
I am not sure food from other dining rooms available in luminae on Edge class ships because kitchens are at the rear of ship, luminae retreat in front.
@@CaroleDowneyyes it certainly was. At least in 2022. We experienced it.
We haven’t been on the Edge class yet but have also ordered off any menu, except the specialty dining, of course. They were a bit reluctant to accommodate us with food from Blu but I guess since we were staying in the Penthouse, we received what we wanted. We did thank them profusely.
Yes, maybe I am misunderstanding, but I thought that on Celebrity ships - the Sky Suite is their junior?? That would explain some of the things you’ve described but at the same time I feel like I need to go and reread their website because there are so many small nuanced differences between the cruise lines. It’s hard to keep track. Lol
The look on his face when he said "don't put that into the video", hahaha I laughed out loud😹😹😹
I’ve not been on a cruise, but I have seen those side tables before. Usually they are meant to have the lids flipped upside down when you have a flat surface and sometimes they will be recessed so that things don’t roll off. Then if you need it as an extra chair, you flip the lid again and you have a cushy spot to sit.
I just love you both. Exp when you are cheeky. Looking forward to another year together. Keep on loving. Traveling ❤❤❤🎉
Love seeing the edge again we loved it in March the entertainment and food were superb
TREAT YOURSELVES!!😊
I really wish I was able to meet you guys in Sydney! But I had something come up unexpectedly that day so was unable to 😢
Hopefully next time when you guys are in Sydney again!
Amazing episode guys! Wish I was there!! ❤
This is brilliant! Great tips
A greatvideo and what a beautiful ship - those pool areas!
