Views & Queues FAQs
Where did you get that Royal Caribbean scratch off poster? We make it and sell it ourselves on Etsy! Here’s the link: viewsandqueues...
Do you two have jobs? Yes! We both have full time careers. Brian is a Software Engineer and Kerry is a Graphic Designer.
Is this vlog a paid promotion with the cruise line? No, we have never worked with a cruise line before (I doubt they even know who we are 😂). If that ever changes, we will be sure to let you know in the video.
What are those black pouches around your neck? We use the lanyards to carry some camera equipment, but many cruisers like to wear lanyards to hold their room key card.
What camera do you use? We typically use the DJI Pocket II, however, when we are in the water we use the Go Pro Hero 9, and in Alaska we occasionally used the Nikon P1000 for wildlife shots. You can find these linked in our Amazon storefront: www.amazon.com... (Full disclosure, these are affiliate links. It costs you nothing more, and we earn a small commission.)
What is a GUSS? GUSS is our name for a Towel Animal! It is a childhood memory for Brian that has lived on for years. You can see the home video moment where GUSS was born in Adventure of the Seas Day 6 (We Made the News) and Allure of the Seas Day 3 (Sea Day).
Is that one thing you said serious? Almost certainly not. If you’re new to the channel, we have really dry, sarcastic senses of humor. So if you’re questioning if it’s sarcasm - it probably is.
How do I ask a dinner time question? Leave a comment on any video and let us know it’s supposed to be answered at dinner time. We’re always looking for new questions (even if the next cruise we can answer it on is a long long way out).
Is it really pronounced CoCo “Key”? Royal Caribbean has said itself that it is pronounced “Key” in a FAQ of their own here: creative.rccl..... To each their own on this pronunciation!
When and how did you meet? We met in February of 2020 via a dating app. We answer this question in more detail in our Independence of the Seas Day 2 (Swimming with Pigs) video.
Where did you get XYZ clothing item, Kerry? I do most of my shopping on Amazon and you can find those items linked in our storefront here: www.amazon.com... (Full disclosure, these are affiliate links. It costs you nothing more, and we earn a small commission.) My sunglasses are a mix of Knockarounds and Blenders. My luggage is Bric's by Ulisse. Those fun flowy pants are from Shein. Other than that, it’s usually TJ Maxx, Kohl’s, JCPenny or Old Navy.

Will Brian ever propose? He says he will, but 🤷🏻‍♀️

It was impressive we actually still could hear you clearly in that wind!

[@jstan022]

Just recently finished binge watching y’all’s channel from start to now. Absolutely love what you’ve created! Dinner time question. Now that you’ve expanded your cruising to the continent of Europe, what continent would you choose next, and why? Again, great job on an amazing channel!

[@raymondwalden7341]

Totally agree with you on the dinner time question. The swimming with the pigs did not look at all like I imagined it. Thank you for going on that excursion so now i know.

[@christinastone3182]

Wondering if the rest of the European cruise will be up soon. . 😊

[@tomgriffiths8995]

Dinner time question - what’s your favourite towel gus you’ve gotten ?

[@ty-and-britt]

American food in Croatia, love that ya'll acknowledged that. And your love for gelato / ice cream is hilarious, I'd be about that life too. The sea organ is pretty cool. I'd like to visit someday and the waterfall looked amazing.

[@Koalakt]

Aurelios pizza?? Never thought one my favorite youtubers would have merch on from a smallish pizza chain in my area!

[@prescher13]

Are you going to continue this series? I met you on this sailing and was really hoping to see more of your experiences. 😂

[@KitsuneAdorable]

4:40 Such a beautiful place! Dinner time Question: Have y’all ever thought of doing a summer time RV road trip in the future, if you both wanted a change from cruises?

[@itsduhlana]

17:37 The guy walking in front of you is wearing a Pittsburgh Penguins hat, and I'm FLIPPING! I love that Penguins fans are all around the world!

[@twizzlegaming8406]

I just want to thank you guys for everything. Watching your videos made me want to book another cruise and I finally just did it 🎉 can’t wait and again thank you so much

[@robertmurphy7410]

[@edvaira6891]

11:20…Your “spoon holder” is also often called a Trivet

[@willowbleu6987]

Kerry, love, love, love the thumbnail picture. That looked like a awesome excursion.

[@AR-Reels1365]

We will be doing our first cruise as a married couple next year and we are binge watching all your videos. Question: where do you keep your phones, sea pass, cash etc. when you're on an excursion?

[@shariherrington7035]

Your souvenir is called a spoon rest. 🙂

[@marcussaintly-ox8ue]

So glad that this tour was so much fun for y'all! Great when something can turn out so great :)

[@maryvilliers4023]

[@makkyroll_8157]

[@ketocanuckleheads4501]

You guys are the best! Question for your dinner questions, who watches your dog while you are away?

[@marissacafe]

*Immediately likes video*

[@edvaira6891]

Oh, Man! You guys missed out on Bari?? My family is actually from Bari, originally, and I got to spend a couple of days there when I was 12 and visiting Italy with my Grandma-very nice, lovely place!

[@Bird2024-q4p]

Great video, as always!

[@rosieelberson770]

Hi, did I miss the remaining days of this cruise? I’m confused as I see you posted a new Celebrity cruise video? Beautiful ship by the way!

[@Views-And-Queues]

We’re going to post the rest of this cruise after the Celebrity videos!

[@rosieelberson770]

@@Views-And-Queues thank you, i look forward to to them!

[@collinstuart3622]

Beautiful area just wish y’all would try some local food

[@Views-And-Queues]

What places do you recommend in Zadar? We really liked the Croatian burger place we found.

[@PokeTourist]

Where did Brian get the Aurelio’s hoodie? Is he from Chicagoland?

[@virtualbeast3936]

Timing could not be better lol litrally got into bed 5 mins ago

[@Suziecooper1485]

DINNER TIME QUESTION: Are y'all going to try to go on a Carnival Cruise?

[@marcussaintly-ox8ue]

Schwepps Bitter Lemon is good! There was a west wing plot about it lol.

[@Views-And-Queues]

wow that’s crazy, didn’t know that

[@MichaelGrnne]

Huh? Heard it as "russian water" first hah(?!). Rushing water it must be :)

[@FastEDismo]

The duck store is new fad, just like that pirate candy, ripoff targeting naive tourists. I guess one guy started it and the other ones are copying. The trend probably came over from a different country, they also tried doing the chimney cake thing in Split, but it didn't catch on.
