[@lisaanderson8235]

I will never, ever get tired of Dee snorkel fish footage!!! I'm too old and scared to do the rope jump, but I was woohooing the brave souls who did it! Wheeeeeee!

[@parodeejay]

We weren't about that rope jump life either, though it looks awesome, ha ha... woohoo!! :D

[@vickisears6702]

Blue and Yellow tangs so pretty and the clown fish. Wish you saw a Eel.

[@vickisears6702]

[@parodeejay]

Thanks so much! We had a ball on all our MegaVacay2020 trips, but I feel like this was a nice way to wind down at the end, hah... :P

[@nancylee908]

ParoDeeJay Very pleased you tried a Princess Cruise. Hope you will take another one. Have a great weekend!

[@goodtimeswiththegoodrums3019]

[@parodeejay]

They definitely get you to all the hotspots. Boca Catalina and Malmok Beach are great!! :D

[@betsybaldwin4342]

Dees Breathtaking snorklel footage

[@ShannonMoody]

Fantastic snorkeling!!!!

[@mike44b]

16:34 Jay, the Freewinds ship has a VERY strange history. You should read about it sometime.. Interesting at the least.

[@scottscaneh]

Like Jolly Pirates we did the morning sail as well lunch was awesome so was the crew. Rope swing was fun. The SS Antilla is the German sunken ship

[@parodeejay]

Dee didn't really get to see the ship last time, so we were happy to have better visibility this time. Always a fun day!! :D

[@PatJ61]

I am new to the channel and LOVE the videos. Thanks so much for making all of these. BTW- I did a quick Google because of had never heard of Freewinds, the ship in port you mention at 16:36. It's a Scientology retreat ship. Interesting, huh?

[@parodeejay]

Thanks so much! Glad to have ya along for our fun! Ah yep, I believe I Googled that ship after we got home. Too crazy!! :D

[@JackCreme]

Once again another great video 👍🏻

[@jodura3363]

I b=need t =o get back and watch in order. I am all over the place. Enjoyed following along

[@staceydorsey8832]

I was on the Epic that day! Aruba is so beautiful. I'll have to try Jolly Rogers next time! :)

[@parodeejay]

Gotta love that pirate life, ha ha... arrrrr!! :D

[@tammy_oh_nevermind]

So fun, thank you! I'd like to do that cruise ☺.

[@parodeejay]

We had fun with Jolly Pirates the first time around, but the option with lunch was even better!! :D

[@susanwhite2466]

Two questions: Did Dee teach herself to snorkel or did she takes lessons. And do you have to have a passport to fly to st thomas or any of the American Virgin Island

[@parodeejay]

Self-taught, just from getting out there and splashing around. And you shouldn’t need a passport to fly within the US, which would include the USVI and Puerto Rico, no.

[@joyce52]

Story time......HA HA back about 25 years ago I was on a cruise with a group and we stopped in Aruba. These people wanted to go snorkeling and checked to see if I could go even though I do not even know how to swim, let alone snorkel. I was permitted to go because they were going out to this manmade dock sort of thing in the water and at the end there was a restaurant/bar and lounges to sit on to sunbathe. It was quite unique. Everyone went in the water and I settled in on a lounge and suddenly this very shapely young woman came to the front of the dock where I was and chose a lounge in front of me, then removed her bathing suit top and settled in. All the tourist were staring and I found out that was permissible at that time. So tell me, Jay, did you stay on the Pirate Boat with SUNBATHERS??????? 😳🤪

[@parodeejay]

Oh wow, we didn't have any of that action on the pirate ship, ha ha... but we did onboard the Carnival Liberty one time... funny!! :P

[@carlamajors9597]

Soon to be first time cruiser in April. Have you been on the Norwegian Pearl? Love your content. Where do I find packing tips?

[@parodeejay]

That's awesome! We haven't sailed Norwegian yet, as our two for September have been canceled. We're slated to sail them in December, fingers crossed, but not the Pearl.

[@elaine1140]

I got goosbumps when Dee sang alone, great job

[@jptraveladventures]

Where did you get the cover-up ordress? I got reef safe sunscreen from Amazon. Did you go to all the an islands?

[@parodeejay]

Old Navy, hah... almost always!! :P

[@tod4865]

2 sea days back and that's it for Parodeejay cruise videos 😔☹

[@debwright4655]

I would love just to go for a sail on the pirate ship.

[@parodeejay]

True! I just enjoy the experience of sailing, and a little open bar doesn't hurt, ha ha... :P ~Jay

[@daneshas1468]

Hey Y’all, Aruba did not disappoint! Great vlog...what was the duet?

[@parodeejay]

Summer Nights, one of our standards, ha ha... :P

[@lostboystravels9141]

around the 7.14 mark. was that a shark? I looked 3 times and that's what it looks like to me.

[@parodeejay]

It was definitely big! Dee remembers seeing it at the time and doesn't think it was a shark, but ya never know!! :P

[@simonebennett6407]

@@parodeejay Scuba Diver here, it was definitely a reef shark of some type I'm pretty sure. It could have been another kind but it was probably some kind of Caribbean Reef shark. I'm thinking it was a white tip, but it was pretty deep below you. It could have also been a smaller Lemon Shark. They are both common in Aruba. I kept playing that part over and over again to see at 7 minute 14 second mark, but that wasn't a huge wreck so it was hard to compare against the side of the wreck and how deep it was. Thanks for sharing this I was so excited that you saw this. Reef sharks are not overly aggressive if you just don't get too close to them (or in the case of some of them, if they are congregating, don't try to break them up). Don't try to pet them, but honestly we've never had any trouble diving with them. Lemon sharks can be problematic, but they aren't like Tiger Sharks or anything, still, since you aren't a diver and experienced with sharks, I'm glad you weren't that close to it!

[@SherieAnnPeterson]

Ah. We want to hear a duet!

[@parodeejay]

We've produced a few on the channel before, as we started out doing music videos, hah... but I think the only time we captured a live karaoke duet was during out Carnival Valor series because someone else recorded us and sent us the footage!! :D

[@SherieAnnPeterson]

ParoDeeJay Thanks! We watched your channel by playlist so totally missed all those videos. Now a new treat for stay-at-home time :)

[@lastchancevintage77]

What did you sing together ?

[@parodeejay]

Summer Nights, one of our standards, ha ha... :P

[@susanmccormick4056]

Freewinds is a ship owned by the Sciencetology Church

[@evilelf25]

Dee has such a good voice.

[@parodeejay]

Thankee thankee!! :D
