Creator's Key Takeaways

A cruise day is better than a work day any day.

I'm sorry, we've already pulled the register. You can't order coffee.

It was so good, we ended up going back a second time this week.

YouTube Video Descriptionโ†“

It's CRUISE DAY!!! And it is also the BIRTHDAY of THE WIFEY!!! After having a great evening out with our friends, it is cruise day on the Carnival Magic. We have an 8-day cruise to the ports of Amber Cove, St. Maarten, St, Thomas and San Juan and it all starts here. As much as I despise the port of Miami, all is forgiven when we step foot on the ship and are officially in CRUISE MODE! Follow us through lunch, a great Sail Away Party, and the best dinner I have ever had on a Carnival Cruise ship. Oh yeah, we cannot forget that we are also celebration The Wifey's Birthday. The number may change, but she still looks as pretty as the day I fist saw her! Intro theme โ€œThe Jolly Cruise Vloggerโ€ written by @pandbswideworldofports Patrick Gribben. Music by Suno. Subscribe to the channel and lets discuss the industry that we all love through news updates, daily vlogs, ship tours and shorts. Invest in the memories you make on a cruise. Take a cruise, love on your loved ones, make memories because unfortunately, tomorrow is never promised.

About The Jolly Cruise Vlogger: I enjoy exploring the world through cruising. Currently have 18 cruises sailed and always have 2-3 more booked to look forward to. I get great joy out of seeking the less popular ships, ports, or things to do on the ship and letting you know that there is so much more to explore than you first think. We release a new cruise vlog every Saturday morning at 9:00 am EST. And sometimes through the week when important events happen. So make sure that you hit the notification bell so you will see the clogs first!
