Creator's Key Takeaways
The entertainment value and the food value of a cruise ship is pretty hard to beat.
It was a really unique opportunity to go all the way around Africa, but it does make for a long cruise.
We really enjoyed our trip on the Royal Caribbean Voyager of the Seas.

Darren and Susan from @retiredtimetocruise are in the middle of their Epic Journey. They are checking in to give you an update for Christmas 2025. The journey started from Florida with a two week cruise on the Carnival Mardi Gras. The next stage was a month in Europe starting in Barcelona, Spain, traveling in France, Switzerland and Andorra plus a few more Spanish stops. The third part was starting from Barcelona on another cruise - this time on Royal Caribbean's Voyager of the Seas for 35 terrific days - finishing in Singapore. A few days in Singapore, then a bus to Kuala Lampur, Malaysia, a quick flight to Bangkok, Thailand, and another bus to Pattaya, Thailand. They are joined by their son Daniel to enjoy some scuba diving and spend Christmas and New Years together before Daniel returns to Canada and Darren and Susan continue their journey. Next stop Vietnam.... We'll keep you posted.
