We hope you enjoy this episode! Please give it a 👍🏻 and leave us a comment below, even if it’s just a 🙈 or 🍌

The thing I love about your travel vlogs is that I feel like I am there, or I want to be there. So immediate and fun. I hope you are ok and no repeats of your 'faint' or whatever it was. Can't wait for my Iona cruise next month. Will be watching the further adventures.

[@CruiseMonkeys]

Thank you! Thank you so much! Glad to have you with us, even virtually. I’m ok now thanks, all recovered from my little wobble, seasickness cramp and a little panic attack just hit me all in one go, it was a rough day tbh. But I’m all ok now! ❤️

[@travelswithlizzylou]

Same, they so awesome 👌

[@bigjolly1000]

Hi guys just watched all 3 Anthem vlogs and I’m now so looking forward to or trip in May. Absolutely loved them all. Thanks 🎉

[@CruiseMonkeys]

Three? There are seven lol 😂 so glad you enjoyed! Anthem was a fab ship we had a great time onboard! 🎉 May will be here before you know it! We hope you have a great time! 👌🏻

Love watching your videos you make me laugh so much take care Lv Rita.

[@CruiseMonkeys]

Thanks so much 🥰

[@chrisonYTtour]

That took a quick turn… glad it wasn’t serious… At least you were dressed nicely hahaha… take care of yourselves fellas 🫶

[@CruiseMonkeys]

Hahaha, yeah, it turned out ok :)

[@davidharris8987]

Another great vlog. Looks like you were the last out of the main dining room. Regarding the towels, you can keep them for the whole cruise as long as you take them back on the day before you leave. If you have a wet one, they will swap it out for a dry one without needing the card.

[@CruiseMonkeys]

Thanks! Yes, we sussed that out in the end but thought best to return as we’d forget and loose them 😂

[@danielintheantipodes6741]

The cuisine looked first class! I am glad you are okay. Thank you for the video

[@CruiseMonkeys]

It was fantastic! Thank you and thanks for watching.

[@linewt9229]

I love watching you guys, you are so uplifting in dark times and really give us something to look forward to watching .I have only been on one cruise, but keep coming back to watch you because you aren so likeable. But please, keep hydrated with water. every glass of wine I drink I drink a glass of water. Keep doing what you are doing and bloody keep hydrated xx

[@CruiseMonkeys]

Thanks! Glad we make you happy! Hopefully you’ll get to cruise again soon sometime ❤️

For sure! Oh we couldn’t, but then our clothes would shrink 🤣

[@travelingtrishthiel]

I'm so glad you're ok! Another fun video, guys!!

[@CruiseMonkeys]

Thanks so much!

[@johnbarton8574]

Great video again guys. Nice to sit down with a glass of red and watch your escapades. Stands a chance you may be up before midday tomorrow after an earlier night than normal. Glad you survived the wobble. 👍👋

[@CruiseMonkeys]

Hahaha! Yes we might just be up before noon! You never know we might even make breakfast! 😉 yes survived the wobble, all good now 👍🏻

[@CruiseMonkeys]

Glad you enjoyed! Thank you :)

[@FraserAtSea]

Oh, I’d LOSE myself in that shop - they’ve thought of everything! Glad to hear you were alright - it’s my nightmare to fall ill on a cruise 😢

[@CruiseMonkeys]

All recovered by next day :) So many shops on there :)

[@arthurscruises9310]

Now that's a sea day. I love those sort of sea days. In fact that's what I would do. Thanks guys for taking us along, loved this episode ❤️

[@CruiseMonkeys]

Love sea days! Thank you for the lovely comment 😀

[@rasferrastfarian739]

Oh I do hope you are ok! - So loving the tour/story/experiences! "Such Fun!"

[@Mister_H]

Had us worried there at the beginning Luke, but relieved you were OK 😊. Great vlog and you are obviously having a fantastic time. Food looked lovely ☺️

[@CruiseMonkeys]

I pulled through, still don’t know what happened, think it was seasickness and the cramp made me panic (I do get panic attacks sometimes)🙄 but I was alright in the end!

[@johnhenfrey5936]

Hope you are now ok Luke, I remember watching the video,last time you were in, La Rochelle. Loved the aquarium portion of the video, and looking forward to seeing your new one.

[@CruiseMonkeys]

All good now thank you 😀 Glad you enjoyed!

[@sammybbq2249]

Love this xx

[@MarinaAndJoeGo]

Thanks for another great video guys 😃 what a cracking sea day - there's so much to do onboard! We hope Luke was OK and back to his usual self after a good night's sleep 😊

[@CruiseMonkeys]

Hello! Yes what a ship! So much on offer for everyone! I can confirm after the little wobble I was ok and normal monkeying around soon resumed the following days to come! 😉😂❤️

[@MarinaAndJoeGo]

@@CruiseMonkeys absolutely- we've been watching your series and saying how much we think our children would love it (especially when they are a bit older!) We are very glad to hear it 😊 Everyone's entitled to a wobble every now and again, especially after a packed day like that!

[@PL-mu1cp]

Glad to hear you are OK now. Take care and have fun on the rest of your cruise. I have only done 1 cruise since the plague so I get my cruise fix watching you boys. You take me to the best places.

[@CruiseMonkeys]

Thank you so much! More vlogs to come in the following weeks! I personally love episode 3 it’s my fav, roll on next week! 🎉😉

[@NickTours]

Love a good sea day. I agree the staff and crew with Royal are AMAZING!!!!!! Oh all the food looks so good, I love Windjammers so much to pick from there.

[@CruiseMonkeys]

It was fantastic it really was! We had an absolute blast!

[@ErrolJ]

Looking at that spinning pool reminds me of the old style washing machines. Glad Luke was okay, especially as it was your first day.

[@CruiseMonkeys]

Thanks so much! I pulled through in the end, I soon came around and after a good nights sleep I was alright! The kids whirl pool river thing looked awesome 🤩

[@stacysmith4350]

I love RCL. Went on the Harmony of the Seas 2019 amazing ship

[@susanmerricks4148]

Great stuff guys, food looks awesome. You both look very smart. Sue

[@CruiseMonkeys]

Thank you! We do try! 😅

[@rolandjong9126]

Thanks :D

[@janemayhew1442]

Hi Gavin & Luke, Glad you are ok, could have been the food n drink,,, you did well considering how the seas were! Thanks for showing such a lovely ship, especially the pools .

[@CruiseMonkeys]

Yes all got a bit too much? A rough day at sea followed by cramp and a dash of anxiety because I thought I’d made a fool of myself then feeling faint and panicking that I was going to faint really set me off into a spin, all ok in the end. An early night and I was back to my usual self the following day! ❤️ Anthem is a lovely ship we we’re really impressed with it and would definitely recommend her 👌🏻

[@janemayhew1442]

Glad all OK again quickly, enjoy your next adventure 😀

[@dospalmascb]

You should try scopoderm patches if you have any sea sickness. (you can still drink with them I believe< But you'd need to check that) They Go behind your ear and last for 12 hours or so. My friend uses them on the Ferry to Shetland from Aberdeen. He swears by them. no sleepy effects either

[@CruiseMonkeys]

Oh thanks! Will keep in mind for next time 🙏

[@jenniferpratt440]

Thanx for the vlogs

[@CruiseMonkeys]

Glad you like them!

Well had some bad news today about my cruise to the canaries on the Arvia on the 9th December 22. It was going to be the maiden voyage on P&O NEW SHIP ARVIA . No excuse given. That would have been my 87th cruise. So disappointed.

[@CruiseMonkeys]

We saw something about, such a shame :(

[@carmelshepherd6739]

I would like to go on this ship one day 😍

All ok, thank you!

[@dave6018]

Does the towel thing help stop the selfish people reserving the deck chairs ?

[@CruiseMonkeys]

Never even considered it, but we always managed to find a chair or lounger so perhaps it does! Also stops people robbing them too I guess! 😂

[@_gregc]

I know l say this every time, but you boys are so handsome when you get dressed up. I’m glad you are ok. Sometimes being over tired and overstimulated the body or brain says nuh uh. That ship is an overstimulation overload 😂

[@CruiseMonkeys]

Ha ha ha yes it sure is overwhelming and rough sea’s certainly don’t help! Lol

Do you drink as much and get drunk as much at home as on a cruise, luke?

@7:44 - This must have been the 'Solo Bearded Big & Tall Men in Shorts' cruise ⚽🎾.🚢. Maybe Manchester United was on a break? Not asking for a friend :)

[@VikPaints]

Suspect you got a bit dehydrated and then combined with a bit of sea movement the two things got the better of you. Never any need to feel embarrassed, we're all human, these things happen.

[@CruiseMonkeys]

Awww, yes, it may have been that :)

[@hardrockheaven]

Please go and see your doctor ❤

[@CruiseMonkeys]

Thank you for your concern it’s appreciated, all checks out fine. I think it was seasickness and the. When I had cramp I panicked and kind of had a panic attack (I do get anxiety attacks from time to time, admittedly it’s been a while) I’m alright now! ❤️

@@CruiseMonkeys A long day, rough seas, and lots of food/drink combinations can catch a person by surprise. You have youth on your side. 🤸🤸‍♀
