Just recently found this channel. I usually watch your crafting channel and have learned so much from you. Thanks for sharing your vacation with us. This was so much fun to watch. I will be going on a cruise the first week of February on Royal.

Great vlog!! I've sailed both RC and Carnival. Carnival has earned its name as the fun ship. The sail-away is awesome and so.much fun! This ship is beautiful, love the suite. I watched the last vlog first (oops). Glad you had a good time!

[@katrinaTravelBae100]

@@MayflowerBA9928 lol. No problem. Thanks for watching. Carnival is definitely the fun ship

@@demetriswashington8573 DO it you will love it. And it’s so relaxing. My mother is in her 70’s and she has been in many cruises. The rocking was just too much for this time because of her vertigo

[@mickiesadventures]

23:15 if the crowd does not show up there can be no turn up, it’s not about Royal and the cruise director, they put up the activity and were ready to turn up with whomever shows up! A lot of Royal cruisers are not about that turn up vibe, but I noticed lately more people are showing up and participating, more on the bigger ships though!

[@katrinaTravelBae100]

@@mickiesadventures Royal Caribbean isn’t used to it. But now that they have the new Bug weekender Utopia of the Seas they are trying to turn up. Some will never get involved regardless of the ship

Hey girl hey! Invest in some airtags. Those things are amazing. You'll know where your luggage is when not with you.

That seem like so much fun.My BFF cruised the Royal Caribbean this past May or April and she said was nothing like carnival as you stated The sail away. Geez.family is everything Kayden had me week at the knees when it came to the Titanic😅 I can't even remember scenes from the Titanic lol.Thx for the video i enjoyed it..

[@thewhatupdoegirl3584]

Yes.. Royal's Sail Away SUCKS. Carnival is my favorite sail away because people are there enjoying life, and you need to put air tags on your luggage. Didn't something happen on the last trip?

[@katrinaTravelBae100]

@@thewhatupdoegirl3584 it sure did. I wasn’t going to give in my duffel back but we were so early I didn’t want to carry it. So I gave it last minute and the porter didn’t secure the tag.

I want to go on a cruise so bad but I have absolutely no clue where to begin, which cruise ship to take, and how much will this all cost? I’m thinking is cruising better it just go to the island directly? Decisions, decisions! LOL

[@katrinaTravelBae100]

@@its.indigo.pulchritudinous it truly depends on what you want to experience. A cruise you can do so much all in one. Different destinations, shows, dinner meet people. It truly depends on what type of vacation you want. I can definitely help you plan when you’re ready

[@its.indigo.pulchritudinous]

@ WOW REALLY? THAT WOULD BE SO AWESOME! I will be planning in March for my cruise because that’s when my job allows us to pick out week of vacations based on seniority so I should know about when I would want to go. And thank you for responding back to me. I truly appreciate that. ❤️❤️

[@katrinaTravelBae100]

@ appreciate it but if you want to travel in March you might want to consider booking earlier. Cruises sell out and go fast or the type of room you may want might be sold out.

@@mickiesadventures I answered that a few times in the comments already. The bag wasn’t intended to be checked originally only my suitcase but we got there so early I didn’t want to carry it and I forgot to take it out. It happens. The porter didn’t screw the tag on tight enough and it fell off.
