[@terrih790]

Editing Jay is back from vacation! Sorry you had to leave Hawaii but happy to have you back!

[@shanepurvis4699]

I feel like it's been forever ago since we seen you guys. I missed you two. So glad your back.

[@swhitaker0311]

The “train restaurant” has great breakfast too. Seward is such a great town. I miss Alaska!

[@parodeejay]

Oh, nice! We're hoping to spend at least a couple of days there next time we find ourselves in that zone!! :D

[@kathymills1959]

ORCAs AMAZING!! So glad you - and therefore we - got to see them - THANKS!!!

[@patriciacoslett5484]

Love the orca socks! You are so planful!

[@jodyfletcher4311]

It was so nice to see Orcas without their dorsal fin bent from captivity ! Beautiful !

[@geogent6655]

How cool to see the Orca Pod. What a diverse example of wildlife. My brother lived in Seward for 15 yrs then retired to Kauai Hawaii 🤣🤣 Talk about a 180. (Jay, looking more like Smee from Peter Pan 🤪🤪🤪👍❤️) Love your vlogs guys, 7more days till my 28th Panama Canal crossing (Royal) with my 6 nieces/nephews/ God kids... Thanks for all guys.

[@karenbryant3923]

Wow! I was clapping and cheering from home! Loved seeing those small pods of orcas! I've only seen single orcas but I have seen pods of humpbacks several times! Happy for you!

[@briank7361]

Absolutely love a little squeak🤔😃. an absolutely appropriate sock 🧦 of the day.

[@debbief2882]

The orcas were amazing!

[@lorihughes8873]

I’m liking these vlogs. We are on this cruise next June. Southbound. Can’t wait!

[@mercyrodriguez5780]

[@arisdoragarcia7044]

Loved the vlog. The scenery was breathtaking. So happy for both of you. Thank you for sharing your experience with us.❤

[@fedex1339]

Thank you for the video. We spent several summers in Seward on my Uncle's boat when I was younger. The mountain goat you spotted are called Dall sheep by the locals. It was wonderful to see it again.

[@theresaskwara4021]

Thank you for taking us along!! Loved it!

[@nicolecorsillo]

Yay! I’m so glad these videos have started back! 😍😍

[@NauticalNurseNancy]

Woop woop!! Onto another series!! I was wondering why the loading was taking place so late in the day, but you explained it nicely. The excursion this day looked like a GREAT WHALE of a success!! 🐳

[@michelleb749]

Did a land trip to Alaska last summer and absolutely loved Seward.

[@idapeterkin2687]

Everything was soooo beautiful 😍. Thank you so much for sharing.

Now cruising had finally made it back to australia ,I will be on a new ship for me in Nov. Ovation of the seas. Hopefully one day I'll get to cruise in Alaska. Thx for all those whale and ocean shots. That otter was so cute too. great job. Thanks again Jay and Dee

[@jerrywilson3288]

Glad yall are back!

[@barbarashuster9029]

Otter pics were wonderful!

[@Maximama512]

Seward is so beautiful! Love it so much!

[@teresamiller5412]

Loved Seward in ‘88, more ships need to experience it!

[@lindasalconi2039]

Beautiful pics , great excusion

[@amyancey13]

Such beautiful views !

[@joanroberson8481]

The video was great! Missed your videos last week!

[@brendao5676]

Dee would you ever consider selling you photos (jpeg or pdf format)? I see nature photos on Pinterest but you have taken so many beautiful pictures! Love the vlog. You guys are awesome! Take care😉

[@commonsense246]

Awesome ya'll! such good luck for you. Lovin it! Our cruise is not until 2024, in fact can't book it until next March, but it will be either Radiance (our first Alaska) or Quantum.

[@lynneackerman1853]

I love this video. We start are south bound Alaskan cruise at this port at the end of August.

[@stevenq99]

The drive from Seward to Anchorage is the most beautiful drive I have ever done.

[@mommunson]

great video Jay but awesome pics Dee.🤘🤘🥰🤟

[@commonsense246]

Dang, I want one of those benches!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@anakerose]

Oh my goodness did you ever see wildlife! We went to the SeaLife Center with my son.

[@bethbelensky9825]

We are taking the Radiance of the Seas to Alaska May of 2023, but we are doing the Lane part after the ship docks in Seward. Did some of the people on your ship do that, too ? I wondered how that will work.

[@kendallwelder3891]

Please tell Editing Jay we liked that sail away footage!

[@Pantherjonvideos]

Pretty pretty indeed!! Pretty entertaining as well! As usual a most enjoyable vlog..Question: If they are called Orcas, why don't they say 'orc, orc'? LOL Thank you, I'll be here all night... It is decided! Planning now gets serious for an Alaskan cruise!!

[@yvettejohnson6639]

Yayyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!

[@johnmys5am]

Great vlog guys. Dee, you have beautiful eyes.

[@marinamattleman1136]

Have been watching your Alaska videos. Going to Alaska in September on the same ship but staying in Alaska for land tour. Can’t wait. Booked a few things for us to do. Glad u having great time Hope we do the same

[@jonathanluck9234]

Hey guys! We absolutely love your videos and we really need your help and value your opinion! We are doing the southbound cruise on radiance of the seas leaving from Seward. We are planning on flying into Anchorage the day before and need help on where should we stay and how to get to the port in Seward from anchorage. Does Royal Caribbean provide transfers or is it our responsibility to book them from a private company? Thank you!

[@parodeejay]

Oooh, we've never done the Anchorage to Seward travels ourselves! Some folks take the train, some folks snag a bus, but the cruise line should hopefully offer a transfer from the airport!!

[@donnadelmolino8812]

yes I did see it, where have you been?

[@parodeejay]

Hawaii!! :P

[@jackieaudus9829]

I went to the Norwegian fjords mid June and it’s not called the land of the Midnight Sun for nothing… stunning beauty 24 hours a day… didn’t half through my body clock … but got to see all the Norwegian beauty longer :)

[@barbarashuster9029]

We did bus down so no sites in Seward.

[@MrRamyon74]

How does the B2B cruise process work? Do you have to re-test and check in again etc?

[@parodeejay]

Testing right now is optional, and at the discretion of the crew. We were not required to test, no. But you do have to go through a quick customs process, be checked out of the ship, and back in again, even if you're not planning to get off and explore the town.

[@lindaobrien3397]

Good morning

[@billpawson7484]

How do you get a balcony soon? If you ask for one do they honor your request?

[@parodeejay]

Typically, you just book a balcony from the very start. Or if you book a lower category room, you can always hope to participate in the upgrade bid program, if you are selected.

[@StorytimewithGrandpaAndLala]

We cruised down with you all and then back up. No orcas for us

[@commonsense246]

ESpresso Martini is my fave of the really sweet ones, Lemon drop is the other...mmmm

[@lizdyson3627]

Hi Dee and Jay. will you/have you seen beluga whales? I love them.

[@parodeejay]

Only at the aquarium in Atlanta, Georgia. Would love to see them in the wild somewhere!!

[@bethhalsey7627]

Where are you going on this second vlog series

[@parodeejay]

Pretty much the same ports in reverse, subtracting Sitka and adding Icy Strait Point!! :D

[@dtocks123]

How much for Prison Tattoo coloring book? Asking for a friend!

[@skeletor9121]

Lol 🤣

[@misterstrangeladyadventure705]

Those porpoise had purpose... (sorry)

[@azbaba]

Alaska is the gloomiest. Please stop. I know I’m not visiting!
