Creator's Key Takeaways
I don't see any land in fact I just see a big stretch of pretty Rocky ocean
I did notice on our little daily planner thing that there is brunch being offered from 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. today in the dining room
I made the mistake of signing up for a wine tasting on the first night that is today at 2:00 p.m.
I'm really excited to experience it because I've heard a lot about it and I've seen other YouTubers who have shown the orange party

Welcome back to Mer Cruises Solo! Today is a sea day! Well, sort of - it's a sea day advertised as cruising through the St. Lawrence River, but I don't really see much land during the day. It's also Canada Day! The ship celebrated in several ways, including a beautiful cake and cupcake decorations that I happened to capture at the Lido Market. We also had to slow wayyyy down mid-morning and crawl along at a very slow speed because we were cruising through a whale breeding ground, so we chugged along at a glacier pace for most of the day while I enjoyed myself around the ship. Despite it being a sea day, there was a lot going on - but if you know me, it is a difficult task to tear me away from whatever book I'm currently reading :D The weather was absolutely beautiful so I started my day with a quick run in the gym, then decided to get brunch - something that not all cruise lines offer! I signed up for a wine tasting in the afternoon, which was a nice experience, and then lost track of time reading and enjoying the nice weather. Dinner was delicious as always, and I got to soak in an absolutely PERFECT sunset at the end of the day while finally experiencing the much loved Crow's Nest observation lounge, which I absolutely adored. Such a great spot on this little ship! And that wraps up my one and only sea day on this 7-day Canada & New England cruise from Montreal to Boston. Stay tuned for tomorrow as we dock in Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island and it also happens to be the infamous Holland America Orange Party! I've signed up for the Bar Hop which I hear is always a fun time, so definitely check out the next episode in this playlist to see how much fun we have!! #cruise #hollandamerica #volendam #solocruise ---------------------------- Also follow me on: ⭐️ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mer.cruises.solo?igsh=bDQ4Yzh6NnIwdjR5&utm_source=qr ⭐️ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61557939269892&mibextid=LQQJ4d ⭐️ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@mer.cruises.solo?_t=8iyjrVMz7ug&_r=1 ⭐️ Threads: https://www.threads.net/@mer.cruises.solo 📧 Email: mer.cruises.solo@gmail.com ---------------------------- 🎬 Filmed with: 📸 DJI Osmo Pocket 3 📹 DJI Osmo Action 4 📱 iPhone 14 Pro Max 🎶 Music: Epidemic Sound
