Jamie is very Sweet as well as ... Kind, gracious, easy going, appreciative, thankful & humble : )

[@junebug3051]

Having your sister was such a nice addition!!--considering everything the cruise has some nice features. Thanks for showing everything in detail--love all of your commentary. The crew seemed to really knock themselves out to please--think it was considerate of them to not bother you too much. That can get old----Food looked fantastic!! You ARE right though--the ship seemed super packed!!!

[@lindadonahue9279]

Thanks, guys for taking us along. Looks like the three of you had a great time despite all the challenges! Looking forward to the next one!

[@pammiedoodle8693]

Looking forward to seeing your video of the decorated doors. I didn’t know this was a thing!🤷‍♀️ Glad you’re all back safe and sound. It was so nice to see Jamie along. Hopefully she’ll get to go along on another one that turns out a little better! Have a blessed week👍🏼

[@laurafoote214]

Great cruise, so nice to see Jamie enjoy herself, she has a sweet smile & personality!

[@user-ue5ib8kp7h]

It was great getting to see your cruise with you two and your sister! Great memories made that you will never forget! Thank you for sharing ❤😊

[@EDT111]

You guys are such a cute couple! I love seeing the wonderful life you have ❤ Here’s to many more years together!

[@tarab6607]

Happy Anniversary, Dawn and Will!!! 💗 Thanks for taking us along. I've only ever been on Royal, and should've booked our next cruise while still on board, because all the 2025 dates are booked. Lesson learned, but maybe we'll give Carnival a try. 😊

[@christineschwartz8269]

Thank you for sharing your adventure with us... glad you made it back safe❤❤

[@emmytolkein3320]

Jamie was a trooper. She has a positive attitude

[@shanenorris8308]

We are on the Wonder of the seas and we just watched “Gimpy” sail away and it looked like both engines are working now. 😂

[@ssing2490]

Love seeing Jamie come along!

[@Mosesthecat]

I think by going on different cruise lines you then get a idea of who you like best. My favorite is Royal Caribbean and Norwegian

[@Marilyn-KY]

Glad that Jamie had a fun first cruise!

[@TheMoparlvr]

Thanks for taking us along on your cruise! Happy Anniversary Will and Dawn 🥂 Many many more Happy, Traveling and Loving years ahead! Looks like Jamie had a great time as well, now she’s got her initial cruise under her belt the next one will be better!

[@LawandaFinch]

Enjoyed your cruise video so much. We took a carnival cruise in 2016 compared to your carnival cruise ours was way more smooth. My brother and my sis in law like going to Mexico to the all adult resorts. I was against them I was in the cruise mind set. We finally gave in and went with them to Cancun and I am hooked on all inclusive resorts as opposed to cruises. We have been to Valentine Imperial Maya in Cancun. It was absolutely 4 star. They have 10 amazing restaurants not to mention food trucks by the pools, ice cream and coffee shops shows every night and a band every night. Your room is cleaned twice a day, a stocked fridge with beverages of your choice. It’s an all inclusive resort. If you get a chance to go it would be amazing. We always fly out of DFW. I enjoyed seeing Jamie she is a sweetheart! Blessings to Will and Dawn!

[@amberbryant8141]

Really nice cruise ship 🛳️ ❤ Oh look 👀 good big burger 🍔 yummy 😋 Hopefully 🤞🏻 another different cruise with your mom and your sister too.

[@JohnnyJones-l9h]

We have enjoyed watching all the videos of the cruise.

[@lovesfall2168]

Saddest part of every cruise is having to pack up and then next morning they kick us off the ship. I'm glad you have more upcoming cruises can't wait to see your vlogs on them. Hated to see this one end.

[@RobinFoulke]

Great seeing Jaime!!

[@familyarthurs5922]

Thanks for sharing your cruise with us! The thing I love most about Carnival is their molton lava cake dessert. I got one every night on the Carnival cruise I took, it was amazing!

[@pamelastilin7893]

You should think about going on a train 🚂 trip (Like a week long one) through the Mountains 🏔 or something 👍🏻

[@stevesmith-sp8xv]

Definitely not a typical carnival cruise. Been on a few and have enjoyed all 4. Guys burgers rule.

[@sue7171]

Give Carnival another chance, they are wonderful!

[@seanfahey3600]

We love the breakfasts in the dining hall. They only do Brunch once or twice a cruise. Regular days have more breakfast faire. Stuff like Steak and Eggs are only available at Brunch. We eat at Guy's burgers every day. My daughter is going on one next week. She is already looking forward to the burgers.

[@candismith4080]

Never been on a cruise myself but my sisters have been multiple times. I thought the food looked more like Golden Corral than what I had been told how the food on cruises was always amazing. Glad you got to go though and am looking forward to your next cruise adventure.

[@michaelsheets6851]

At the buffet it is. The MDR ( main dining room), Cucina Del Capitano, Cha Bang and Guy's Bugers are all free.They have better food.

[@michaelsheets6851]

We've been on Fantasy x2, Ecstasy x2, Elation, Vista, Sunshine ( it's the only class of ship we will avoid), Magic x2 and Celebration. We have our next cruise booked on Celebration too, going to St. Thomas. The service has always been great. Sunshine seemed to not be as stable in moderate seas like the others. The newer ships have stabilizers they deploy under the ship in rougher seas. Sunshine does have them. I like the Fantasy class for the smaller ships. Celebration is our favorite. Even though it's one of the largest ships in the fleet, it didn't seem to be crowded. As soon as I get on, I go to Guy's Burger for a double pig patty. You also have Mongolian Wok and Cucina Del Capitano on all Vista class and above. We also eat in the MDR for breakfast as much as possible.

[@lewistopcop]

The problem of going on multiple cruises on different cruise lines is that you never move up in status on one ship!

[@gusnickles3672]

Thanks for sharing

[@cathyratliff398]

I really enjoyed your cruise videos and glad everything turned out for the good with the rough start. It looks like so much fun was had by all💕

[@patriciahurley1867]

Glad you made the most of it, which I knew you would. Hopefully your sister will get to take another cruise with you, and see the difference. Safe travels home and God bless.

[@kentuckywoman1926]

Y'all almost to 100K, I enjoy your content.

[@christinecampbell2525]

They offer a cruise port day fast breakfast on port days too. In and out in 25 minutes. We are thinking about trying a cruise for our anniversary in February in a few years since it's cheaper and possibly taking our son on a cruise for his 16th birthday instead of doing a party in a few years.

[@marybethmcdaniel1096]

You guys are lucky to go on the cruise I wish I could go back on the cruise

[@michaelpardue2400]

Hope you all had great time thanks for sharing your Adventure with us.

[@Musicman4k]

Came across your videos while looking at Jeep invasion on KZbin. Now I’m hooked! 😂 Love watching everyday and feel like we know yall personally too. Can’t wait until the next. Maybe we will meet yall in Pigeon Forge next year. 😊

[@donnarabon4731]

Great videos of your cruise ! Enjoy watching your channel ! Thank you for taking us in your journey! We L❤️VE to travel as well !

[@sherrymack94]

Ready to try the Mardi Gras or the jubilee great ships more upscale very nice

[@kaleyanderson6428]

Just a heads up if u get on carnival again brunch is only available on SEA DAYS so you can only so however many sea days you have

[@jacquelinemitchell9480]

You all had the BEST attitude with the changes!

[@yankeeinthesouth]

😃👍♥️

[@deanna3301]

Hey Will & Dawn! Give 'em another try at some point. We enjoyed Carnival. Also, for your next itinerary, book a SOUTHERN caribbean cruise regardless of the cruise line. By the way, the day of the week on the floor is a Royal Caribbean thing. 😊

[@timlittle841]

Cruise like that needs to be taken in the winter,way too hot this time of year

[@barbhawkinson659]

I bet jamie was so happy to get back to a real and comfortable bed 😊 So nice seeing her on this voyage with you 🥰

[@AngelS-br3vv]

I absolutely have enjoyed all those cruise videos you guys! Thank you ❤

[@evinrude1236]

I think I would give Carnival some time to work out some issues before I tried them again. But you guys have a great positive attitude, and made the most of it. "When life gives you lemons......make lemonade". 😉👍

[@fadingdandelion4792]

Did u all ever try the bed in the ceiling?

[@terrib627]

I think we'll just save our money for an Alaskan cruise like you took. That was high class all the way. Carnival is just for those looking for bargain cruising.

[@nataliedarby702]

And Happy Anniversary

[@debbiewilliams4276]

You were blessed to be near the elevators

[@GaryLetford]

Thanks for taking us along. In general not impressed with Carnival, too many people and they do seem to have more issues than most cruise lines. The changing and cancelling of ports seem to be happening a lot with other cruises lines and mostly they don’t give a reason because they don’t have to. I did think the food looked better than expected and your room seemed nice except the shower was way too small. Safe travels home.

[@pampeirce1322]

Wait till you see Disney cruise doors decorated.

[@doriswhitlock]

I went to the Bahamas for graduation me and 35 of my classmates it was fun I was only 17

[@nataliedarby702]

Welcome Back. What you got with Carnival is what it’s like on a good day. As a retired 38 year Travel Agent Carnival is the only cruise lines that end up stuck at sea, flooding, everything you can imagine. You don’t get the service or the food. I cruise on Princess or Royal Caribbean or Holland America. NCL is pay as you go with minimal included food so you pay at the restaurants they have on the ship. Service with them is about like Carnival. Celebrity is nice. Disney is very nice and have cruises them solo as an adult and stayed in the adult areas and it was very nice. They have a split bathroom in one is a tub and sink, in the other a toilet and sink. So with multiple people more space to get ready at same time. Always enjoy the videos. So excited that y’all are also traveling internationally. Have a great week.

[@carlavision6143]

Will and Dawn, really enjoyed your video and loved seeing your sister Jamie with y'all. Looks like y'all had a fun and exciting cruise. Looking forward to your next vlog. Love y'all!❤️

[@hollypardue8091]

I love Carnival cruises for the price! I always get Faster to the Fun to avoid the embarkation craziness. Sailed the Vista last April with your original itinerary and loved it. Can't beat Carnival's food even compared to DCL. Too bad you didn't try Guy's Burgers until the last day. I literally never ate at the buffet on this ship for any meal. I will be sailing on the Mardi Gras in February and can't wait!!

[@wynonastroud6525]

Looking forward to your next cruise! I was so glad you included your sis this time. Yea!

[@SmokyMountainBlessed]

it's nice that you made the best of it and had fun

[@carolm8003]

Jamie was fun to watch. Funny your waffle wiggle & rumor of someone hiding on the previous cruise! Thx for sharing your adventures

[@watchingfromthesideline1408]

Great video will and dawn 👍 👌 thanks for taking us along 😀 keep up the good work 👍 👏

[@gwentland1]

If you go to Freeport again, rent a car. Drive around the island. I’ve been to both and I like Grand Bahama Island much better than Nassau. There are many deserted beaches outside Freeport. You can see what the Bahamas are really like. Nassau is all touristy.

[@DPA373]

Oh last day. Looked forward to a video everyday so good times have to come to an end. Really enjoyed all the videos from your cruise. Thankyou. Stay safe. God bless.

[@sharonh5399]

Supposed to be going on my first cruise early next year. I'm going on a smaller ship. Have you guys experienced sea sickness? I know Dawn was sure saying that one was rocking.

[@lizcortez4897]

Another cruise in the books…..this was fun,,always making new memories I love it!!!…now I can’t wait for y’all to go on another cruise😉😬..Thank you Will, Dawn and Jamie for taking us along😊💕

[@dennisk2982]

Hi guys, Last day is Definitely a sad day from a Cruise ❤

[@maryfettig3378]

Great job !

[@MamaS1990]

Really enjoyed your cruise videos.. we are going on our first MSC cruise in December… How long was this cruise? I see the girls took 2 suitcases… Lol..

[@debbiewilliams4276]

Do you tip the person that straightens the room daily? Good to see Jamie again..

[@Pixiesantics]

Have you ever thought if doing a Disney Cruisas?

[@MamaS1990]

Are those magnets personalized? If so where did you get them?~ Tina S

[@MamaS1990]

I can’t believe they charge for the dr. Seuss breakfast now.. we went with my first grand child years ago and it was included…Tina

[@mariebruzdowski6466]

So awesome that you share your cruise experiences with us. Love seeing Jamie with you and all the fun that you have

[@rancedavis7405]

What ship has been your favorite?

[@Hollynkona]

Thanks for taking us along on your cruise. It looks like you had a good time.

[@teresacantrell2024]

Thanks for sharing your adventures

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Our pleasure!

[@Gussy818]

What do you think about price comparison...

[@heatherroper2108]

We were on the Vista in 2019 when it had its original propulsion issues. We had a great time overall but we just returned from the Carnival Jubilee and it's incredible!! The ship is beautiful, brand new and the food was so much better than the Vista. I hope you'll give Carnival another try in the future. Try the Jubilee and you'll be very impressed.

[@janbond8460]

Thanks for sharing your cruise with us. It was great to see Jamie again!!

[@kamicastillo1451]

It was great you all made the best of it 😊

[@stacydavis3317]

Thank you for being honest. I am having a big number birthday next year and me and 4 friends want to go on a cruise. After watching your videos, you have taught me some things to look for. I have only been on one cruise in 1997 and it was a small ship and I stayed sick the whole time. Lost 15lbs on the cruise. Was y’all’s boat so rocky that it made you nauseous? That’s the only thing I’m worried with and I have to use an electric scooter to walk.

[@delanomiller]

Glad you enjoyed it especially after the rocky start. Thanks for sharing. God bless.

[@OutcastRichard]

I have mixed emotions on the last day. Glad to go home but hate to see it end. I like the 5 day cruise. Gets my fill.

[@chanej2651]

I am with Dawn...I want to try other cruise lines as well. I have done Carnival about 4-5 times. The last time I went, I was disappointed. So I would like to try other cruise lines to see if I like something better.

[@yankeeinthesouth]

😃👍♥️

[@maryellencookmeynig9034]

Thank you for sharing this. Y’all are so sweet and positive. 😊 I hope y’all will take your sweet sister along again. She deserves a gold star for sleeping on that extra bed. She’s a real trooper.

[@michaelsheets6851]

That's also my favorite.

[@fatimamota8779]

I still think buffet breakfast or lunch or dinner is better than dinner room my son always going back to buffet after dinner room lol 😂

[@mariewebster4797]

Did yall get any compensation for your suitcase being damaged?? Just wondering

[@Gussy818]

The breakfast in the dining room is so much better❤❤❤ I can't wait to go on another Cruise

[@bethanym723]

Beetlejuice Beetlejuice was excellent. I saw it myself. It’s cool that you got to watch it at sea 🌊

[@lavadabeckham1773]

Love your vacation videos. Thank you for your daily videos. I look forward to thus when you you all travel. Even when you just stay in Tennessee. God bless

[@KarenAntczak]

My daughter just left on this ship today. Her first cruise! Half Moon Cay, Grand Turk, Amber Cove.

[@deborahmcdermott6927]

The pool looked so refreshing and relaxing!

[@beverlybuckhorn9168]

No Mutiny is a win win❤😊

[@BarbaraCullum]

Will, Dawn & Jamie, Really loved following y'all on your cruise. It was fun to watch all the entertainment and excursions. Glad ya'll had fun.💗🛳👋

[@SandraRhea-i8e]

Even though you had some ups & downs it looked like you had a good time. I always enjoy your cruising adventures! Thanks for taking us along!! It was nice Jamie could join you.

[@pamelagrant2960]

I love Dawn’s bag.

[@yankeeinthesouth]

Thank you 😃

[@valerieh8882]

Again I wouldn’t ever booked on Carnival Lines. Do your homework pay more and you would be surprised in a good way. Drive safe.

[@bubbascruise]

I’m surprised you said the food was mid as carnival’s lunch / grab and go options are universally considered the best in the industry for the included options. That class of ships doesn’t have as many options as the new one but still several options for lunch like pasta bar. Burgers, brunch and cucino (I think it’s still free for lunch). When you go around Labor Day it’s a g-do time for prices but does have the highest % chance of weather effects

[@stj53]

How did they handle tips at the end of the cruise?

[@tracyhull7936]

I have enjoyed watching this trip with your sister😊

[@1229wb]

Thanks for sharing your trip😊
