Is the Starbucks included in the drinks package you have? Or extra?
@HangingOutWithMike8 күн бұрын
It was included on Independence of the Seas. I am not sure if there are other ships with a Starbucks branded store, but on my sailing, I was able to get my White Chocolate Mocha and Caramel Macchiato for free. I believe my package was the $30 per day one.

2 quick questions, are the towels free at the towel stations on coco? And is the tv included to watch in your room or did you have to pay extra for that? Thank you!
@HangingOutWithMike8 күн бұрын
Yes the towels are free, you just have to check them out with your room card (on Carnival it's called Sail and Sign card but not sure what Royal calls their room card). The TV is included. It was a welcome surprise compared to Carnivals TV options.

Part 3 is my favorite so far ❤. Also, you mentioned that you have never been to CoCo Cay before but I believe you have. It was in one of your other cruise ship vlogs from last year. Not to mention, that meringue key lime pie looked so good and I wouldn't be complaining about the size of it. The bigger the better! 😋 Lastly, thanks for explaining the difference between Carnival and Royal Caribbean when it comes down to the food, drinks, and channels. That's helpful and good to know for future reference 👍🏾.
@HangingOutWithMike15 күн бұрын
I am glad you like the videos. As far as CoCo Cay, every cruise line has their own private islands. This was my first cruise on Royal Caribbean, so my first trip to their specific private island. But you are correct, I have been on a cruise line's private island before. I visited Princess Cays, which is Carnival/ Princess's private island. And I have also visited Ocean Cay, which is MSC's private island. They are all in the Bahamas, but CoCo Cay definitely has the most stuff to do (waterpark, hot air balloon, zip line, etc). CoCo Cay is my favorite private island of all the ones I have been to so far.

Had ours since January. The Disney100 isn't a Start screen but a "Welcome" Screen. Only works when the car is locked and sitting for a bit, then you open the door and close the door and it'll run music with the animation. Still kinda bummed they didn't do special music on the way out (it sounds like default Ioniq 5 stuff?). After seeing the screens on the concept car I was skeptical of them making production considering how expensive they would be to replace and just how hard it would be to get this approved in all 50 states with how they handle vehicle animation/screen effects. My biggest bummer is lack of moonroof effects since those could have just been a decal. Honestly I'm more annoyed that they flaunted the "concept" knowing full well they weren't going to be able to run the high impact fireworks effects. This is a Limited Ioniq 5 with a $20,000 (because dealers WILL mark this up for "exclusivity", ours did and their second one was marked up $20k) software gimmick, tacked-on leather embossing, unique interior coloring complete with almost literally tacked on Disney details, and special rims. Hyundai was so desperate to fill out the spec sheet they decided they'd make the "H" badges black without anything special done with them. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy the car, but it's a box of gimmicks that "elevate" it over a regular Hyundai Limited. It still has the glaring issues of dated tech features like USB-A charging and wired-only Android Auto/Apple Carplay (no wireless). All this on the heels of the new N line they'll be releasing for the 2025 model year.
@HangingOutWithMikeАй бұрын

DO NOT GO SWIMMING WITH THE PIGS THERE THINKING THERE IS NO CONSEQUENCES My wife and I went swimming with the pigs on Valentine’s Day 2024 in Nassau. 2 days later she got a small bump on her thighs. She started throwing up everything she ate and drank. We went to a local clinic that juiced her up with antibiotics and sent us home. Luckily we returned to Boston the next day and went to clinic in Dedham. They did blood work and saw she had a blood infection. Then was transferred to Faulkner, then transferred again to then bigger hospital @ BWH. She was sent to surgery and things went south. There she was induced in coma because her white blood cells kept going up and they couldn’t find the right antibiotics to treat her with. She was in intensive care for 4 days on 14 different I.V. and made it thank GOD. DO NOT GO THERE, IT MIGHT BECOME A BADDD EXPERIENCE.
