YouTube Video Descriptionโ†“

Filmed: June 2025 Description: Independence of the Seas docks in Rotterdam, Netherlands! We have a delayed arrival time so much of the morning is spent on board the ship eagerly watching us sail in. Once we get off the ship, we spend a few hours exploring Rotterdam. We visit Markt Hal for some snacks and shopping, see the Cube Houses, and find our Harry Potter book. Once we get back on board we have a dinner at Giovanniโ€™s Table and enjoy a movie night in the room as we sail out of Rotterdam. Next video will be our last sea day onboard Indy of the Seas. Stay tuned for more of our Northern City Escapes cruise on Independence of the Seas! Join us for travel and cruise vlogs exploring the world for fun experiences, great eats, and local adventures. As travel vloggers, we canโ€™t wait to share our tips and tricks for child free travel. As cruise vloggers (aboard Royal Caribbean and Disney Cruise line), we canโ€™t wait to share room tours, excursions, specialty dining and more as we cruise for the first time ever!
