While you were on the Voyager, we were on the Explorer from Miami. The ocean was like glass the entire trip. We stayed on board with 300 other people all the way to Venice.

Ever since I was 16 years old (now approaching 50), when I took my first trip to Europe (Germany, Switzerland, France), I have been a huge advocate of travel. It's an excellent way to expand your perception of the world. I have always said that travel should be required-and government subsidized-to graduate from high school. That one high school experience changed my life forever and gave me a profound perspective on my place in the world. This was a great video, but more than that some wonderful gems of advice. Thanks for sharing! See you around the Rob and Allie Community 😉

Both. We did one bag of clothes but hand washed as well for the smaller items. They did a great job but it took a couple of days to get them back so you do not want to wait until you have the last clean clothes before sending them in. I am sure more people use the service on the longer cruises.

New follower here. I use to spend 3 months in long term rentals in Barceloneta. The price for a 1 bedroom was 500 euros. After Covid, Barcelo made AIRBNB illegal, we where able to get a horrible place in Carmel, near Park Guell. So I think things go back and forth with the AIRBNB situation. We have also rented in Sitges a half hour bus ride and beautiful town. What area were you guys in? Im in Northern Spain now, Gijon. Soon to head to Cantabria and Pais Vasco. Keep up on your travel videos. We are YT also. Rick Higgins on YT 🎉

We got real nuts, and decided to fly to Barcelona next August, Barcelona to Southampton, on to Iceland, Greenland, Nova Scotia and ending in Boston for 23 days straight.
