Oh. It is so beautiful and historic and tropical and French all in one. It’s like they literally took buildings from France and plotted them in this tropical paradise. And in a poetic Victor Hugoian sort of way, that is exactly what they did. The Shipwreck is the most non-kitsch themed restaurant I’ve EVER seen. Amazing how they did that. The older I get, the more appealing small ship cruising appears. I love the multi-layered comparison of the perhaps too big, certainly too crowded, mega ship beside Le Dumont.

@@visitwithus I appreciate that you see it positively. Because this amount of engagement all at once can be seen in quite the opposite way. And I’m weary about that. Anything I can do to boost these videos in the algorithm, I’m happy to do. While enjoying the content, of course. Even getting a little too lost in the plot to the point of parasocial levels of viewership…just..a good sign of relatable filmmaking! One of those channels you’re surprised isn’t at the LEAST at 100k subs. Though it was very encouraging to see over 50k subs since the last time I’ve engaged - over a year ago (why I’ve been binge-watching/crash coursing through what I’ve missed out on). Early 2023, I’m pretty sure this channel was at 20k. That’s great growth.

I just can’t get enough of your content from this trip - Ponant looks like SUCH a dream. I’ve never been to this part of the world before, but it also looks absolutely stunning!

We were introduced to your channel on your Mississippi River cruise as we did the same in 2016 and you brought back so many memories. Loved this video on the Ponant. Luxury cruising at its best. Will now watch Part 2. Keep on bringing your amazing adventures to us.

Quite surprised everyone was dressed that formally at dinner in the Caribbean. Was it only that formal for the Captain’s gala?
@visitwithus Жыл бұрын
It was more formal than most evenings because it was the Captain’s gala though guests did tend to dress for dinner in the main dining room most nights. There was the less formal outside buffet for dining too 👍

We found the Shipwreck bar when on a Marella cruise in November 2021, just as Covid restrictions were being lifted. Almost the only customers there and totally loved it. As we headed back to meet our taxi we somehow gate crashed a Seabourn 'Caviar in the Surf' experience and enjoyed far too much free Mountaudon Brut and canapes before heading through the Carambola club, past the waiting lobster lunch (we were tempted) and on to our waiting minivan. When was your cruise? So many crew wearing masks....haven't seen that since early 2022.
@visitwithus Жыл бұрын
Haha, love that story 😁 We’ve done the caviar in the surf on a Seabourn cruise on that beach and it is a great day - and even better to gatecrash we imagine! With regard to the masks, we were on board in December 2020. Thanks for watching 👍
