Carnival Glory Cruise Vlog 2019 - Part 1: New Orleans, Embarkation, Exploring, Déjà Vu - ParoDeeJay

In this episode, it's embarkation day for our Carnival Glory cruise out of New Orleans! Join us as we catch an UberLyft back to the port, board the ship, then do a little ship exploring which all seems slightly familiar... :P
We're sailing out of New Orleans on a double cruise adventure! This time, we're on a 7-day Western Caribbean loop aboard the Carnival Glory headed to Mahogany Bay, Belize, and Cozumel. We sailed from September 29 through October 6, 2019 on this second leg of our grand back-to-back cruising adventures!

Is there anything that Dee can not do. She's a dancing machine, beat box, animal sound affects. The list goes on, and on. 😉😊 Oh I forgot photographer extraordinaire.

[@parodeejay]

I like that you included "beat box" in your list of accolades, ha ha... definitely one of her stronger talents... :P

[@KeweenawGuy]

I thought we weren't going to get the elephant noise for a moment there...but Jay did not fail us. 😊

[@RF39Productions]

My favorite VLOGGERS. Thank you For All You Do!!!

[@parodeejay]

Thankee thankee!! :D

[@nancylee908]

Dee started off the morning not feeling her best but seemed to perk up on the ship. Glad she didn’t get sick. Embarkation day is always exciting. Looking forward to more Glory jokes and spins. Thanks so much for taking us along. We all appreciate it so much.

[@parodeejay]

Oh yeah, she definitely got feeling better right away, hah... woohoo!! :D

[@juliewalters74]

So bummed we were on this cruise and we didn’t get to meet you guys! We actually really liked the Glory! I can’t wait to watch the vlogs to see how you guys liked it!!

[@parodeejay]

We really enjoyed the Glory, though we wish it had a proper Red Frog Pub downstairs, hah... but a great ship overall!! :D

[@WickedWonder1979]

Those Fun Shop hours confused me too! I'm ready for this next vlog series. Yay!

[@parodeejay]

I think those shop signs broke my brain, ha ha... we eventually got it figured out. :P

[@chipmerkley]

Great start to a new series, you all have the best footage. I know you’re enjoying your 2nd day on the Pride right now. Can’t wait to hear all about it.

[@parodeejay]

Thankee thankee! Yes indeed, we're having some fun on our favorite ship... we'll be excited to share that once we get back home again, ha ha... :P

[@tristaleigh367]

I embark on the Glory in 10 days!!!!! I'm so glad your Glory videos are going up in time! Thank you!

[@parodeejay]

Nice! Hope you have a fantastic cruise on the Glory!! :D

[@Taco4L]

You guys are so funny! Had me laughing out loud, and feeling like I was right there with you. Nice work and looking forward to the rest of the series!

[@ellennelson9201]

Y'all are my favorite bloggers. I love to see you having a ball. Rock on!!

[@parodeejay]

Thanks so much! We're always excited to start another adventure!! :D

[@NauticalNurseNancy]

I never wondered about the type of body wash...till now! Thanks for all the info! I loved that peacock lounge - so interesting! Dee and the beat boxing is too funny. I love that every ship is unique in many ways and the same in a lot of ways as well. ⚓️

[@parodeejay]

Always trying to bring that hard-hitting news action about bodywash and whatnot!! :P

[@jeffreysadventuresyoutube]

We loved the Glory!! One of my favorite ships!!

[@andrewlynham5494]

Got off the Glory in the morning and you boarded in the afternoon. We was booked to stop at Freeport, but because of the hurricane, we sailed straight from Keywest to Nassau and stopped overnight.

[@parodeejay]

Oh wow! Yes, I know Carnival has recently started going back to Freeport, but that might have been later on. We've never done a Nassau overnight though, which sounds like it could be interesting!!

[@laurasc84366]

Sooo excited for this series.....Mar 1..

[@parodeejay]

Woohoo!! :D

[@TheodoreLawsonUSC]

Yall are literally the most fun people alive. Hope your on the ship when we go!

[@parodeejay]

Thankee thankee! Glad to have ya along for our craziness, ha ha... :P

[@tracih4real]

YA'LL I love watching you! I really like Ricky and Laura too!

[@harrismagoon6470]

So nice to see The Glory again! Thanks for doing this series!

[@jessicageriene6841]

Soo cannot wait to get on board this ship

[@cecilgray7335]

I have only been watching for 10 minutes and I have subscribed and liked you guys video vlog. Lots of cruises, but first time on Glory coming up at spring break 2020, Sail Date 3-8-20. I watch lots of vlogs and I must say you guys do a great job! Look forward to the rest of the cruise as I cruise vicariously through watching your vlog.

[@parodeejay]

Thanks so much! Glad to have ya along for our craziness!! :D

[@DaveBrandysExcursionsTravel]

What a Glorious vlog!😉

[@quinton8696]

I was on the Glory in 2004. It was awesome! Love your VLOGS

[@parodeejay]

Thanks so much! We really enjoyed our time on the Glory!! :D

[@adavan3095]

Just catching up on your Glory vlogs. Nice tour. Loved that ship. Went on her in 2014. First time to have the pleasure of Dr E as CD. We just got off the Horizon this past Sunday, my new favorite ship. Cant wait to watch the rest of the series.

[@parodeejay]

That's awesome! We had so much fun these past two weeks sailing with Dr. E again on the Pride!! :D

[@Itsme-lp2kn]

You guys are so wholesome I love it!

[@Jake-vn9bp]

Congrats on 10k.... Loving the cruise videos #roadto15k. 💯💯💯

[@parodeejay]

Thanks so much! #RoadToOneBillion haaaah... :P

[@ShannonMoody]

Cruise day!!!!!!!

[@SouthernGrannaElizabeth]

I'm going back in time to begin this series. I got to inspect the Carnival Glory at the beginning of March. They cut the inspection short. I haven't uploaded my vlog yet. I have clients going on The Carnival Glory later this year. I look forward to watching your complete series. I finished your Mariner of the Seas series today.

[@parodeejay]

Nice! We enjoyed the Glory, even though the decor confused our brains a little, ha ha... still a nice ship overall!! :D

[@thetruestein2530]

I don't know if you make the connection later in the series, but it looks like the theme is all about colors... the Ebony Cabaret, Bar Blue, Ivory lounge, Cinna-bar, Ultraviolet Arcade, and the colors on the ceiling all over changing, not only in the atrium, but I noticed it outside the arcade and in the casino.

[@parodeejay]

I don't think I truly made the color connection until I got back home and edited the ship tour, and realized the name of the lobby is the "Colors Lobby". Sooooo... yeah. Oops. :P

[@chuckoneill2023]

Ebony, ivory and amber are all organic materials so maybe that was part of the theme? Or was it about exotic trade items from “far places”?

[@parodeejay]

Right, I was thinking about trade... thus the Cinn-A-Bar being cinnamon. So various trade materials, spices, etc.

[@latokapruitt2289]

Me and my fiancé where on the Valor July 2019 for 5nights. We played in the game room 😊. Luv'd the ship! We had a balcony room, the room stayed cool, clean and slept great. We will be getting married Nov 20, 2020 and going on our honeymoon Dec 13th for 7nights on Carnival Glory to Cozumel, Belize and Mahogany Bay(Honduras) 😁😁😁 Luv your video! You both are funny 😁. Thank you for taking us on your cruise. P.S. nice elephant sound 😊👍🏽

[@parodeejay]

Thanks so much! Hope you have a fantastic honeymoon cruise!! :D

[@latokapruitt2289]

I'm sure we will thank you 🤗

[@AdventuresofDeanna]

I have already watched this series but I am watching again since my sailing in 3 1/2 weeks got cancelled. Now I have to wait a whole year more because due to work I could not reschedule until then.

[@parodeejay]

That's no fun! Hopefully the time will fly by and you get get out a-cruisin' soon!! :D

[@gloriapepper7733]

We were on the week before this cruise last year missing out this year

[@parodeejay]

Oh wow! Hopefully you had a great cruise, and hopefully we can all get back out there adventuring again soon!! :D

[@outkast2178]

Just came across your videos, they are fun. Looking at a cruise next year on the Glory. Did the room ever cool down? Ha. How well do the ACs cool the rooms. I hate being hot when I'm trying to sleep...haha

[@parodeejay]

Thanks so much! Yes, the cabins can be warm on embarkation day from all the door opening, I think. But they usually cool down after a bit!! :P

[@HopelessObserver]

New Orleans is a fabulous port

[@RaginMoose100]

Have fun in San Francisco! 😋

[@parodeejay]

Heck yeah! The illusion worked!! :P

[@dylanhays870]

We got off the day y’all got on.. almost got to cruse with ya on accident. Lmao

[@theworldoftaura2580]

Love you guys !! I’m a new fan from Baton Rouge Louisiana 👍🏽

[@parodeejay]

Thankee! Glad to have you along for our craziness!! :D

[@vinnieglez1994]

Thank you for this. I’m going on that ship on 11/17/19 from New Orleans

[@parodeejay]

Oh nice, that’s super soon! Hope you have a fantastic cruise!! :D

[@Jesslovetravels]

You get the title best vloger this this week since you revealed the secret to cruising what kind of soap is in the shower

[@parodeejay]

Gotta get all that hard-hitting new reporting in there, ha ha... it's funny how many people rave about the body wash and want to buy it so they can "smell" they're on a cruise!! :D

[@theboguesandthensome3975]

I am hoping to be getting on this ship in October! It will be my first cruise, so I am here watching to get familiar with what to do. I don't want to be the NEWBIE! LOL

[@parodeejay]

Whoop whoop! Hope you have a fantastic time on the Glory!! :D

[@chuckoneill2023]

So cool! We are boarding Glory Sunday for this same itinerary. Looking forward to this , but sorry our schedule didn’t mesh with yours. B

[@parodeejay]

Woohoo, hope you had a great cruise! We just got back today from the Pride... :D

[@chuckoneill2023]

We just got home; yes, we had a great time. We did the Atlantis submarine in Cozumel, we highly recommend that. And bicycle riding/ kayaking at the Bacab Eco park in Belize - the guides there are lovely, amazing, dedicated people.

[@lleopard6595]

Ahh I love the Glory

[@katherinemohr2833]

If only future Jay knew about the casinos...

[@parodeejay]

We call him Poorhouse Jay!! :P

@@parodeejay 🤣🤣🤣

[@nicolecoccia1885]

Like watching your shows on KZbin night cruise ships you've been going on a lot of it

[@parodeejay]

True, we've done 37 cruises all told, and I think we've vlogged 29 of them. Whew!! :D

[@DebDoesReadings]

9:17 LOL! 😂😂😂

[@parodeejay]

*insert random animal noise* :P

[@terrificdewsome3498]

I will be in the carnival glory after the carnival pride carnival legend and the carnival glory and the carnival valor

[@Snakeeyesrty]

Cool couple

[@lewisr7700]

How would compare the overall condition of the glory versus the valor?

[@parodeejay]

We enjoyed both and they were almost identical, but the Valor had the Red Frog Pub, whereas the Glory had cooler waterslides. But head-to-head, we'd go Valor right now because we do love that Red Frog option, ha ha... They're both older ships, but seem to have been maintained well, about the same!!

[@piyle]

Going in 10 days

[@parodeejay]

Woohoo!! :D

[@trujillovilleadventures2977]

What hotel do you suggest in new orleans?

[@vlogchannel1260]

Hey I'm back my old phone wasn't working and my iPad wasn't working so I got a new phone I'll catch up on the videos

[@skylerroxasmidoriyatardisp2882]

Well the Peacock mentioned by Katy Perry would get you kicked off the ship if displayed in the public area of the ships lol

[@parodeejay]

This is very true, hah. We don’t want to see that peacock... :P

[@raznt]

Do y’all pick your room when booking or do y’all opt for the cruise line to pick for you?

[@parodeejay]

We always pick our own cabins... there are a few locations that we would never want to be, such as extreme front or back, hah...

[@deneenochab728]

can you share the town you stayed in NOLA before the cruise?

[@parodeejay]

Metairie, about halfway between the airport and the cruise port.

[@lastchancevintage77]

Shaving mirror? Clearly a makeup mirror! lol Hop on the Liberty with me 9/18 !

[@parodeejay]

What?! And I’ve been doing my makeup outside in the hallway!! :P We’ll already be on a cruise while you’re on the Liberty. Daaang! ~Jay

[@Emoney19]

Do the arcade games take cash?

[@parodeejay]

No, they use your ship card as payment.

[@Emoney19]

@@parodeejay okay, thank you!!

[@TheHaley1694]

I noticed that your door hang was on a command hook. Are the doors on Glory not magnetic???

[@parodeejay]

Most of the doors on Carnival are magnetic, but they are covered with a panel that is not necessarily magnetic. We use the command hooks just to be safe. You would probably need a really strong magnet to get it to stick otherwise.

[@TheHaley1694]

ParoDeeJay thank you so much!!!! Hope your cruise is going swimmingly ☺️

[@jazziecat2354]

if the ship get off at 4pm when can we get on?

[@parodeejay]

Embarkation day? You sign up for a time slot during your online check-in, but you can usually select as early as 11:30am or so.

[@rafimando2111]

Sow hich did you like better Valor or Glory?

[@parodeejay]

Between the two, we liked the decor of the Glory better and they had more updated waterslides, but the Valor had the Red Frog Pub and the Mongolian Wok, so it won overall, ha ha... :D

[@russiangod695]

Last time I went on this ship was in 2011

[@parodeejay]

Oh wow! We really enjoyed it... I wonder if much has been updated since you last sailed it. Probably so!! :D

[@russiangod695]

Yeah I think because the atrium is a little difference
