YouTube Video Descriptionโ†“

Hi everyone, In this week's video we try someone totally new to us and embark on our first ever cruise! It is boarding day on Royal Caribbean's Symphony of the Seas. We were so excited, there was just so much to see and do we didn't even know where to begin. We stayed in an ocean view balcony cabin and the room tour for that will be up soon in a separate video. We loved exploring through the different areas of the ship from The Boardwalk to Central Park and the Promenade. There is just always something to see and do. We tried numerous cocktails and lots of peach and mango Angry Orchard around the ship. We loved the Sand Bar and it will have a special place in our hearts as that's the bar we first went to up on the pool deck. We had a watermelon margarita and a pineapple guava sangria, both of which became firm favourites throughout our trip. We tried snacks throughout the day at El Loco Fresh, Sorrento's and Park Cafe. There was such a buzz of excitement everywhere and some brilliant live music as we walked around. The Caribbean music on the pool deck was brilliant We decided to have our evening meal in the main dining room and we were not disappointed. We really enjoyed and will be returning here in the next vlog for 'Formal Night'. We Headed to Schooner Bar after to relax with some fantastic live piano music, he really is such a talent! Then as we relaxing we heard the music start up on the Royal Promenade and we knew that meant the night's festivities were starting. We headed down and joined in with singing along and dancing at the party just before the Midnight Balloon Drop which was also a lot of fun to be a part of! We finished the night by ordering a Sorrentoโ€™s pizza to take up to the room before getting some rest ready to do it all again tomorrow! This was one of our favourite days we had so much fun and were instantly hooked on cruising from that moment, at least with #royalcaribbean. #symphonyoftheseas is such an amazing ship and we can't wait to share more of the #cruisevlogs with you!
