P&O Azura Cruise Vlog ....#6 Sea day, Disembarkation , Home .

So it was our final sea day aboard Azura before we arrived back in Valletta to begin our journey back to the UK .
We woke to a beautiful day , and so decided we would use this opportunity to relax around the pool and of course use the hot tubs .
It was very relaxing , we chose the Oasis pool which is an adults only pool .
After lunch we decided to go back to our room to begin the task of packing for our disembarkation . Our suitcases had to be left outside our room by 2 am the previous morning .
After packing we enjoyed a bit of time on the balcony with a nice glass of wine.
Our final evening was spent visiting the theatre ,then we visited a few of the bars to listen to our favourite music acts around the ship .
Our final morning had arrived , we had to vacate the room by 8 am , we left it right to the last minute before we left the room . We were not being picked up to be taken to the airport until late in the afternoon .
After our breakfast we walked around the promenade deck , then played cards , then had a drink at the bar before heading to the buffet for lunch.
Before you knew it we were being picked up and taken to the Airport .
Our flight had been put back 30 minutes ,but all in all we had a good and trouble free flight home . So this ended our 7 night cruise onboard Azura , an older and slightly dated ship , but it was still a great cruise visiting some brilliant Ports.

Loved every minute of this series - so many laughs and loved following along with both of you.

[@pearlandbrianstripsandadve8619]

Thank you , really appreciate you watching especially after all the travelling you have been through.❤️👋👋

[@sarahbailey1595]

Big blue whale assistant 😂😂😂 Bless Pearl… Another great watch ❤ I hope you enjoy your family cruise 🚢 I have requested a shout out from Jade 😊😊😘❤️ xxxx

[@pearlandbrianstripsandadve8619]

Poor Pearl , all those different names I call her 😂😂, glad you enjoyed it Sarah. I will remind Jade to do the honours . Thanks Sarah XX👋👋❤️

[@wendyrogers1560]

I love your cruise, vlogs, and Pearl I love your dresses!

[@pearlandbrianstripsandadve8619]

Hi Wendy , that’s great to hear thank you very much. Pearl loved your comment concerning her dresses 🙏 . Thanks a lot for following along Wendy .XX👋👋❤️

[@TimK2646]

It is always very sad on Sea Disembarkation as we have always enjoyed the experience of excellent amenities of the ship and the locations and of course meeting new friends. Shame you didn't visit the various churches in Valetta on this occasion. I found those hidden Churches quite amazing.

[@pearlandbrianstripsandadve8619]

It was sad to depart after a great time , and yes if we did it again we would maybe get off the ship and explore. It was very hot and we didn’t want to get all hot and bothered before going to the airport. As I said in the video I used to live in Malta when I was a young boy . Also we have been back for a holiday. Thanks very much for watching our Azura adventures, we really are grateful 🙏.

[@sharnieyorke]

Great vlogs as ever, really enjoyed them 😊

[@cruisefraterpoultons]

What a fabulous cruise, last days are always sad though and feel like they last forever when you just want to get home. P&O do organise the fly cruise travel really well and it’s good to have no organising stress. I’ve got to stick up for Pearls soup eating, I always put my bread in first like that too 😂 Thanks for a wonderful video series and bringing some happiness and fun ❤Julie x

[@pearlandbrianstripsandadve8619]

Hi Julie , yes the last day can be a bit of a struggle, but to be fair everything ran very smoothly. So no complaints with P+O on that part of the cruise. Thank you Julie but we don’t want to give Pearl any encouragement when it comes to her dining etiquette 😂 . Thank you very much for continuing to watch, and we are both really pleased that you enjoyed them . Xx❤️👋👋

[@lowdowntravel]

Loved this series some great photos at the end and you two do make us laugh! Looking forward to your next vlogs!!😊

[@pearlandbrianstripsandadve8619]

Hi Guys , really appreciate you watching, glad that we gave you a giggle. Cunard vlogs should be in a couple of weeks. Thanks again XX👋👋

[@gill7069]

Really nice vlog again....Sundays won't be the same now until you return with more of your adventures.Love how you both are so cool & witty with each other😂

[@pearlandbrianstripsandadve8619]

Thanks Gill , that’s very kind of you . Our Cunard vlogs should start in a couple of weeks. So hopefully you will enjoy them . We are still the same on Cunard 😂 Pearl still has to put up with my constant leg pulling.😂 . Many thanks for your lovely kind comment.XX👋👋

[@debs4819]

Hi pearl and brian we look forward to your videos every Sunday and have become our favourites 😍 we laugh with you and you have the loveliest relationship 😀. We've been cruising for 5 years and are going in britannia again soon . We think you would like that ship 🚢 happy cruising 👋

[@pearlandbrianstripsandadve8619]

Hi Debs , thank you so much for your lovely message. We are really flattered that we are one of your favourites . Also it’s great to hear that you can laugh along with some of our antics. Hope you have a fantastic time on Britannia. Funny you should mention that ship as we are booked to go on her in January , back to the Caribbean . Will be great to hear what you think of her after her refit . Thanks again Debs and thank you for watching our vlogs . XX👋👋

[@debs4819]

Thank you for your reply ☺️ that's brilliant your going on britannia in January and hope you have a fab time and will look forward to your vlogs 🌄

[@marecianoble5826]

Every time I got into the adult pool on ventura I slipped, I knew after the first time there was a slope but still slipped. Loved these vlogs.

[@pearlandbrianstripsandadve8619]

Hi Marecia , we weren’t prepared for that slope , so poor Pearl was nearly out of her depth. Her little legs were going ten to the dozen 😂 . Glad you enjoyed them thanks very much for your continued support.XX👋👋❤️

[@Merritt7278]

Really enjoyed this series, we went for the drinks package the last 2 times but won't be doing it again, 15 drinks might not seem alot but believe you me it is, well it is for me😂 You guys really are fantastic, thank you. Look forward to the Cunard vlogs.

[@pearlandbrianstripsandadve8619]

Thanks Marc , glad you enjoyed it . For us it was a no brainer concerning the drinks package . With 4 ports on a 7 night cruise there was no way we would get our moneys worth . As we said we just drank when we felt like it . Most of the time to be fair 😂. Thanks for watching this series of vlogs Marc , and we do appreciate your positive and supportive comments 👋👋🍷

[@user-vi1gh4pj4m]

Hello from Canvey 😊. We’ve just binged your Azura vlogs . Entertaining as always , we were in stitches over the tender story 😂

[@pearlandbrianstripsandadve8619]

Good Morning from just up the road in Corringham. Thanks 🙏 Guys for watching the Azura vlogs , hope you had a stiff drink to help get through that lot . Agh the Tender Boat , brings back nightmares 😫😂. It could only happen to us pair of dopes . Glad it gave you a giggle anyway 🤣. Thanks very much for watching guys and really appreciated the kind comment.👋👋🥂

[@Travelling4pleasure]

Enjoying your vlogs as always. You two are a real comedy double act. Keep them coming! 😊Can’t wait for our cruises on Sky Princess and P&O Arvia next year 🙌🙌

[@pearlandbrianstripsandadve8619]

Hi Guys , thank you both very much . Sometimes we are a bit of a comedy act unintentionally, we usually make a muck up somewhere.😫 . You will have a fantastic time on both ships , Sky Princess is one of our favourites . Thanks very much for watching guys take care .🙏👋👋

[@raebirchall7896]

Another great series, Pearl looked lovely again every night and of course so did Brian. We have looked at that cruise a few times might do it as the ports of call are ones we want to visit not been on Azura for a few years some of the venues seemed to have changed since we last went on it.

[@pearlandbrianstripsandadve8619]

Hi Rae , thank you that is very kind and very much appreciated . It was our first time on Azura but as we said we chose it for the ports . Especially Split and Kotor they were great . Azura itself is a bit tired in places but it didn't stop us having a really enjoyable time .I Really couldn't tell you if any of the venues have changed or not . We would definitely go back on it if we found the itinerary that suits .Thanks very much for watching Rae , and we do appreciate you taking the time to comment .XX👋👋

[@saradillon2252]

[@louised4260]

Another fantastic vlogg thank you. You remind me of Mick and Pam from Gavin and Stacey and trust me that’s a compliment as they are just amazing characters. Pearl your outfits are just stunning as usual and Brian you scrub up nicely too. Love that you both really enjoy your cruises and make the very best of them. I love the Azura and my only gripe is that you can’t book the glass house on the virtual queue like you can on other ships. 😊

[@pearlandbrianstripsandadve8619]

Hi Louise , so glad you enjoyed it . We did laugh at your Mick and Pam comment . Our daughter and son in law say exactly the same thing. 😂 We really try and have as much fun as possible and are glad that it comes over in the vlogs . We knew we wouldn’t get into the glass house maybe better luck in September when we are back on Arvia . Thanks for watching Louise and thank you for all the support XX❤️👋👋

[@reneyoung2395]

This was great, and I enjoyed all of it. I'm really excited about your next one. How was the food this time? I know sometime it isn't always as good as it should be. I really loved the entertainment, especially Max. Hope your weather is good. We are finally getting rain, and I'm so grateful. Will miss talking till you start posting again! You all stay well.

[@pearlandbrianstripsandadve8619]

Morning Rene , really pleased that you enjoyed the final episode of our cruise on Azura we enjoyed the food to be fair , it wasn’t mind blowing but for mass catering it was fine . Max was my hero , loved his style and the music he played. Our weather is rubbish , cooler and wetter . Glad you are getting your much needed rain Great to hear from you Rene , take care and hopefully speak again in a couple of weeks. XX👋👋

[@alexandrawordy]

Hi Pearl & Brian, great final vlog in this series Aww, I actually filled up seeing Pearl fill up watching the chef’s parade What was the lady doing dancing near Pearl, did she have earphones in listening to something else! She certainly didn’t have the moves! 😂 How funny Brian and your man crush! He did have a good voice 😂 The stop scratching across the screen 😂😂 We always take cards with us what do you play? Your on board statement looks like our statements do, bar after bar after bar 😂 You say you lived in Malta? Wow! Looking forward to the Cunard series now. Have a good week both Take care xxx

[@pearlandbrianstripsandadve8619]

Good Evening Al , thank you as always . Sorry Pearl got you a bit emotional 😭 she does well up quite easily.😂. As for the lady dancing, that’s exactly what I said 😂 I’m no John Travolta but I thought she was completely out of sync . Man crush 😂 , Pearl kept pulling my leg but it was just the sort of music I like . I’m afraid once I start having a good scratch I find it hard to stop, must have knits 😫. We play a sort of rummy , a bit more to it nothing too taxing. I lived there for three years when my Dad was in the Navy, I was very young at the time . Thanks for watching Al , and thank you for all your great comments over these last weeks . It’s been very much appreciated.XX👋👋❤️❤️🥂

[@Mandyjj2972]

Gosh Brian you made me itch all that scratching😂 another superb vlog look forward to the Cunard ones next. Oh and I don’t do packing either😂

[@pearlandbrianstripsandadve8619]

Morning Mandy , I was like some lousy flea ridden dog 🤣 couldn’t stop scratching. Of course you don’t pack , leave it all to the blokes 😂🤣 . Thanks for watching Mandy XX👋👋

[@amandahimsworth7469]

Arr just brilliant ❤..... But what was all that scatching Brian lol 😆 you didn't stop , did you catch fleas from the ship's cat 🐈🐈‍⬛ lol 😅😅. And im useless at eating curry or anything spicy on a travel day 😜. Have to keep it " as Brian says, beige. 😅. Brian my husband loves your clothes 😍 as we all love Pearl's but he thought you should get a mention as well at how trendy you look all the time . Did you know they are opening a really big new boss shop at Bluewater soon . Love eggs benedict. And we really really enjoyed this series 😊. Thank you both for your continued dedication at making us all laugh ❤😂. Keep up the good work .take care A&J xxx❤✨️👋👋👋👋👋

[@pearlandbrianstripsandadve8619]

Morning A+J ,it’s that flea bitten bloke replying to your comment.😂🤣 Must put on more moisturiser 🤣. I do enjoy a good scratch I have my own special tree in the garden 🤣. Thank you J I do like a bit of Boss, smart but not too young looking. . Appreciate the mention and compliment 🙏. You can’t beat a good Eggs Benedict especially when the egg is cooked just right .Glad you enjoyed the Azura vlogs , we certainly had fun onboard. No your the ones who deserve all the thanks , for you continued support, your always positive and complimentary comments it really is appreciated. Cunard will be with you in a couple of weeks XX❤️❤️👋👋🥂🚢

[@chriscliffordCH]

There's always a real gem in every one of your vlogs that makes us laugh out loud, can't believe you sprayed poor Pearl with car perfume, Brian.. haha! Message to Pearl from Paula: "Pearl, I never pack the cases, as the saying goes, why have a dog and bark yourself? 🤣" Best wishes to you both from us.

[@pearlandbrianstripsandadve8619]

Hi Chris 🤣 thanks mate, there was I thinking I was being all kind and caring and treating her to some nice perfume ,Oops 😂. Trust the Girls sticking together on the packing issue 😫. Great saying by the way 😂. Thanks Chris lovely to hear from you , thanks as always for watching. Love to Paula Xx ❤️👋👋

[@jacksonbritton4436]

Another amazing video as always maybe on your next cruise try and get the captain's announcement you can't begin a lovely cruise without hearing the announcement when's your next voyage

[@pbrunottephoto1646]

What was on the pool bottom for you to slip on ? maybe I don't want to know 😯. Last day is a long day, good to go home but sad to leave the ship. Lucky you have another cruise cruise planned..Play cards for money next time, you could clean Pearls purse out. That tv was smaller than your phone..Ship is in need of work..But you made the best of it and got to enjoy most of it. Way better than sitting home bored.🤩

[@pearlandbrianstripsandadve8619]

Morning Guys , I told you that Pearl didn’t have her nappy on properly . That’s why they shut the hot tub 😂. Exactly when you know you’re going home you just want to get there . Even if you have had a great time . Never will I be able to empty Pearls purse , it’s like a bottomless pit. She is like a squirrel hoarding it away 😂. Ship is very tired , we knew that before we went , but we were looking more at the itinerary. Definitely better than being at home . We think make memories while we are able , and before we are too old to forget the memories that we have just made 😂🤣. Take care both of you , always great to hear from you . Xx👋👋

[@sharnieyorke]

Great vlogs as ever, really enjoyed them 😊 do you get the drinks package?

[@pearlandbrianstripsandadve8619]

Thanks Sharnie , glad you enjoyed them .As we said on the last one we didn’t get the drinks package. With our onboard credit our bill for the week was approximately £65 .So it definitely wouldn’t have been worth it . Thanks very much for watching and for the comment.X👋👋

[@pearlandbrianstripsandadve8619]

Evening Percy , hope you have had a good weekend. No food gymnastics from Pearl this week 😂. Yes I lived in Malta for about 3 years when I was very young. My Dad was in the Royal Navy , bless him .
