WATCH BEFORE CRUISING FROM CAPE TOWN | Boarding Day | 4-Night MSC South African Cruise | Family of 5

[@philanddeetravels]

Such a different experience sailing out of another country besides the muster and packing your bags on, this seems like the start of a fantastic vacation. Those folks were partying like it was carnival. Hope to see this vibe brought to the states

[@MyCruisingFamily]

Hey fam! Thanks for coming through to the premiere. Right?! Once we got past embarkation and muster, it was a pretty good day. Definitely hope MSC brings this vibe and these chefs to the US too!

[@Stylishlybritt]

Love you all being transparent on how this cruise has differed (negatively & positively) from your other cruises with this line.

[@MyCruisingFamily]

Thanks so much for watching, Britt! 🥰

[@HomeWifi-y3p]

Lovely family you got.Be blessed

[@MyCruisingFamily]

@@HomeWifi-y3p thank you so much! Blessings to you too!

[@trishstimelesstravels]

Your hair looks amazing sis!! Them Fred Flintstone feet sent me!! Ugghhh!

[@MyCruisingFamily]

Hey Trish! Thank you so much! Girrrllll… the feet 👀😫

[@SIGCruiser]

That's the one thing that seems consistent about MSC...the muster drills...lol. Yes, this MSC sailing looked live! Looks like fun. That seafood salad looked good too. Yes, I had a great time on my one and only MSC sailing and looking forward to sailing again!

[@MyCruisingFamily]

That's right, Cheryl! Definitely looked like you had a good time on your Magnifica vlogs! The folks onboard Splendida definitely came to have a good time, and we're here for it! Yes to future MSC cruises! Thanks for watching! 🥰

[@dahliafrancis9806]

Yes,south African foodnis very much seasoned like Jamaican food.

[@MyCruisingFamily]

@@dahliafrancis9806 it was all so delicious! 🥰

[@aRICHandJAZZYLife]

Very nice looks like a really nice cruise! Sucks that you guys couldn’t leave port, but I love that the casino was still open in Port lol and we were laughing at the man with no shoes 😂

[@MyCruisingFamily]

Right?! They were getting that money one way or another, and I don’t even know what to say about Mr. Barefoot. 😂 Thanks for watching! 🥰

[@allenfamilyadventures859]

The long embarkation lines and muster drill are giving me anxiety again. lol. But overall it looks like you guys had an incredible day! Thanks so much for taking us along the entire vacation of a lifetime!

[@MyCruisingFamily]

Girl… anxiety is real! Whew! Getting through that long embarkation process was such a relief! Thank you for watching!

[@TeamReeseTravels]

The muster drill always leaves me confused, lol. But still seems like the cruise is off to a great start!

[@MyCruisingFamily]

😂😂 Girl, even my prior MSC cruises didn’t have a muster drill like this. Ain’t never had one like that before in my life. Putting this vlog together had me all in my feelings again ‘cause of that darn muster drill… BUT, yes, the first day was still a good one! 🙌🏼🙌🏼 Thank you so much for joining us for the premiere! ❤️❤️❤️

[@regina_davis]

Oh those lines! Unbelievable. And I really wish they would refine that muster process. So nice that you guys all enjoyed your food. Those samosas and seafood salad looked delish. I’m going to give them another try and hope to enjoy more next time. They were getting that Jerusalema line dance. Lol Great vlog!

[@MyCruisingFamily]

Thanks Regina! Girl… seeing the lines and muster drill again while editing this vlog had me feeling stressed all over again! Whew! The experience beyond that was really great though! I definitely hope you enjoy your next MSC experience! Thanks for watching and for the kind words. 🥰

[@np7360]

Oh wow you made me a fan within 30 sec!

[@MyCruisingFamily]

Thank you, and thanks for watching! 🥰

[@Ginas_World7]

This was a great vlog!! Great info. MSC has some boarding and muster drills but so affordable. That’s how we’re able to sail in Yacht Club. I will never be in NCL’s The Haven, cost too much for me and my house. Excited for the next vlogs!

[@MyCruisingFamily]

Thank you @Ginas_World7 🥰 Right?! I really do think the value MSC offers is unmatched right now, especially when you look at the ports they offer. Yeah, those Haven prices are not for us right now, but we're definitely considering Yacht Club. Thanks so much for joining us for the premiere! Definitely looking forward to sharing more from this trip! Enjoy the rest of your week!🥰

[@SocialCouplepreneur]

The intro song is so catchy! Now we are singing along. I know it had to be a challenge trying to decide what to film. Okay let's get into the vlog.

[@SocialCouplepreneur]

I hear the ululating! Yes, I can see the vibe is different. I can imagine how it feels in person.

[@MyCruisingFamily]

Thanks so much for watching... and for singing along! 🎶

[@MyCruisingFamily]

It was a fun and energetic vibe!

[@gailhanks2065]

Me and my Sister sailed on MSC Europa and i loved it so much i signed up for the MSC Euribia 26 day cruise 2025.

[@MyCruisingFamily]

Awesome! Happy you and your sister enjoyed your cruise and have another to look forward to! 🥰

[@Hey.Mrs.Parker]

This was such a different vibe. Got mw thinking!

[@MyCruisingFamily]

Right?! Listen, Charvon... I would hop on another MSC cruise from South Africa in a minute! Thanks so much for watching!🥰

[@SeyaMyeni-vp2ux]

When I went on a msc cruise we had to stay at la possession for 4 hours because of a cyclone coming past our route

[@MyCruisingFamily]

Ohhh wow! 😯

[@rozannejones8779]

Thank you for posting.

[@MyCruisingFamily]

Thank you for watching!

[@shunwilliams6180]

Love love love this video ❤❤❤

[@MyCruisingFamily]

Thank you so much!

[@cromulus6877]

MSC has a horrible muster drill process...but Not the barefoot!! Loving the content and love the way this family travels!

[@MyCruisingFamily]

Thanks Cyndia! Looking forward to traveling with you again! 🥰

[@jessicakopanolokwe3529]

I enjoyed watching this vlog. I thought the Aurea experience gets your priority boarding

[@MyCruisingFamily]

Thanks for watching! I think any priority boarding, other than Yacht Club, is where available at the port... and this port didn't seem to offer it for Aurea.

[@TWTTV]

Hey there fam this was amazing we will be taking our first trip soon trying to see what boat we will like to try out this is a big help fam

[@MyCruisingFamily]

Happy to hear it's helpful. Enjoy your cruise whenever the time comes!

[@1970sbm]

MCS should pay you because now my family wants to cruise with them! We were trying to work out a cruise without having to fly back to the US. Flights to South Africa are affordable and take 3-4 hours so now we have reasonable options!! Thanks for sharing!

[@MyCruisingFamily]

@@1970sbm thank you so much for sharing that! Happy the video is helpful! Enjoy your cruise!

[@reesienunn]

I miss watching y’all vlogs!!!❤❤❤

[@MyCruisingFamily]

Awwww! @ReesieNunn we missed sharing vlogs with you and chatting with you! Promising to bring more content this year. Thanks for coming through the premiere! ♥♥♥

[@margaretlogan8233]

[@nokukhanyamavundla2777]

I was on the same cruise.

[@MyCruisingFamily]

@@nokukhanyamavundla2777 hope you enjoyed it! We sure did!

[@KimberlyH2022]

Whew! A lot but it looks like a promising experience!

[@MyCruisingFamily]

Yes… a lot, indeed! Thanks for watching! Looking forward to sharing more from the beautiful MSC Splendida! 🥰

[@sharonbarrow6319]

We waited in anticipation for departure.

[@MyCruisingFamily]

Yeah... that embarkation line was pretty long!

[@allandaniel4396]

Good evening Family, let’s get at this.

[@MyCruisingFamily]

Enjoyed watching the premiere with you! 🥰🥰

[@sharonbarrow6319]

Our boys really surprised us with eating their food.

[@MyCruisingFamily]

They sure did! A pleasant surprise!🥰🥰

[@onthegowithyolo]

Oh wow! The lines…. 😢

[@MyCruisingFamily]

Yeah... it was definitely different...

[@onthegowithyolo]

Catching what I missed…. Replay

[@MyCruisingFamily]

Thanks for joining the premiere @OnTheGoWithYolo and for jumping back into the replay! We appreciate you!🥰

[@sharonbarrow6319]

That was unusual.

[@MyCruisingFamily]

Which part was unusual? The embarkation line or the people walking barefoot during the muster drill or something else?

[@shunwilliams6180]

❤️❤️❤️

[@MyCruisingFamily]

Thanks for watching!

[@onthegowithyolo]

Not a fan of the muster…

[@MyCruisingFamily]

Yeah. This muster drill was not the best.

[@GlamLifeMovie]

Mom really needs to learn how to use utensils. Watching adults eat with no manners is preventable

[@MyCruisingFamily]

@@GlamLifeMovie interesting comment about “manners.” By the way, none of us in this video is your “Mom.” Great job to her though ‘cause your comment is clear evidence of your great manners. 🙄
