YouTube Video Description

Our final 2 days onboard Royal Caribbean Independence of the Seas. We have a sea day,, where we enjoy lunch at Giovanni's Table, and go to see Grease in the theatre. Next day we're docked in Zebrugge, but we spend the day onboard having a relaxed port day around the ship, before having dinner in Playmakers. Next day we disembark in Southampton. Filmed on a Northern Europe Cruise Sep/Oct 2025.
