Creator's Key Takeaways

An Alaska cruise is totally different than a Caribbean cruise and kind of cooler.

This is how you know that you can believe us when we said that it has rough seas last night because they did put out the barf bags on the railings.

The dessert was phenomenal. If we were on a cruise ship, the dessert would be in the hall of fame.

I love Alaska cruising. Oh my god, there's the edge. This is amazing.

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Pack rain gear, layers, and waterproof shoes for Alaska.
βœ“Bring a zoom camera or binoculars for wildlife viewing.
βœ“Use the ship's app for announcements and to avoid missing updates.

πŸ†•New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Seasickness β€” It gets better once in the inside passage; no longer needed Dramamine.
Rain and cold weather β€” Pack rain gear, layers, umbrellas, and hand warmers; Alaska is a rainforest.
Bear encounters while hiking β€” Make noise, stay alert, and back up slowly if you see a bear.

Today on our Royal Princess cruise, we dock in Juneau Alaska! We whale watch from the ship, take the Goldbelt tram gondola, hike the Mt Roberts Trail, and then eat at the Red Dog Saloon Links: For exclusive videos, join our YouTube Membership! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCLWrPt9sIiGKvX1LBX58G9Q/join Our Etsy Shop: https://viewsandqueues.etsy.com Our online store: https://viewsandqueues.com Our favorite cruise food: https://www.cruisefoodhalloffame.com Our Amazon Store Front: https://www.amazon.com/shop/viewsandqueues (Full disclosure, these are affiliate links. It costs you nothing more, and we earn a small commission.) Views & Queues FAQs Do you two have jobs? Yes! We both have full time careers. Brian is a Software Engineer and Kerry is a Graphic Designer. What are those black pouches around your neck? We use the lanyards to carry some camera equipment, but many cruisers like to wear lanyards to hold their room key card. What camera do you use? We typically use the DJI Pocket II, however, when we are in the water we use the Go Pro Hero 9, and in Alaska we occasionally used the Nikon P1000 for wildlife shots. You can find these linked in our Amazon storefront: https://www.amazon.com/shop/viewsandqueues (Full disclosure, these are affiliate links. It costs you nothing more, and we earn a small commission.) What is a GUSS? GUSS is our name for a Towel Animal! It is a childhood memory for Brian that has lived on for years. You can see the home video moment where GUSS was born in Adventure of the Seas Day 6 (We Made the News) and Allure of the Seas Day 3 (Sea Day). Is that one thing you said serious? Almost certainly not. If you’re new to the channel, we have really dry, sarcastic senses of humor. So if you’re questioning if it’s sarcasm - it probably is. How do I ask a dinner time question? Leave a comment on any video and let us know it’s supposed to be answered at dinner time. We’re always looking for new questions (even if the next cruise we can answer it on is a long long way out). Is it really pronounced CoCo β€œKey”? Royal Caribbean has said itself that it is pronounced β€œKey” in a FAQ of their own here: https://creative.rccl.com/Sales/Royal/Perfect_Day/18062757_Trade_Perfect_Day_FAQs.pdf. To each their own on this pronunciation! When and how did you meet? We met in February of 2020 via a dating app. We answer this question in more detail in our Independence of the Seas Day 2 (Swimming with Pigs) video. Where did you get XYZ clothing item, Kerry? I do most of my shopping on Amazon and you can find those items linked in our storefront here: https://www.amazon.com/shop/viewsandqueues (Full disclosure, these are affiliate links. It costs you nothing more, and we earn a small commission.) My sunglasses are a mix of Knockarounds and Blenders. My luggage is Bric's by Ulisse. Those fun flowy pants are from Shein. Other than that, it’s usually TJ Maxx, Kohl’s, JCPenny or Old Navy. How can we support your channel? You can join our YouTube Membership!
