Absolutely loved this live thread Rick! I’m on the Symphony in less than a month so it has got me so hyped!

 

 

 

Will be my first cruise without my family, and I will be going with my boyfriend who has never cruised before! We are 23 and 24 so are representing the age group that cruising has never really been aimed at before!

 

 

It’s definitely been on their mind. When Royal first shared our Radiance video in early 2016, the feedback on Royal’s side was about showing younger cruisers and changing the perception.

Indeed, I didn’t go inside though.

Have been following along silently but throughly enjoying the review and day dreaming about cruising [emoji1]

 

I was at segrada familia last September. If you have a change to go again you need to go inside. It is STUNNING. All the colors from the stain glass windows are beautiful. I attached one picture and it doesn't even do it justice. So much better in person.

 

I have read 2 of your other post since I stumbled upon this one. And am about 3/4's of the way through your escape review. Love all the pics you post. Also have looked at getting a couple of things you use for your photos because I didn't realize they existed.... 360 camera anyone?

No Quest which is a bummer considering they had Ken Rush at their disposal. Language would have been the issue though, and in the spirit of fair play, I understand.

 

 

 

 

Thanks, just a disclaimer that this video may be a bit longer of a wait as it will be up to the Crown & Anchor Society as to when it will be shared.

 

 

 

 

So, funny thing with this cruise was there were robes EVERYWHERE. I think Europeans must embrace the bathrobe look, and I love it!

And that should surprise me?:eek:;):D:D

Beautiful and thank you. I will definitely be redoing this cruise as there was so much more I wanted to do. Perhaps the Oasis when she heads over next summer!

Yes, I met most of them. You probably noticed from the Periscopes that I partied with Royal’s social media team a few times this sailing and the “couples” influencers were out with us as well.

 

Jeven and Rachel Dovey are my favorite. I legit would hang out with them.

 

 

Just went to Jeven's YouTube channel and now I've got a whole new set of videos to watch before my cruise on FOS!

 

Once again Rick, I appreciate all you do by taking us along! My wife has finally started following and she has forbid me to reenact the robe and animal shot when we cruise! LOL

 

Being a photographer myself, I watch, learn and enjoy what you guys do! Hopefully my shots of Freedom can live up the bar you, Chase and Jenny have set!

Oh and to give you what you have all been waiting for...26df372300df69b5d8d8f30754063d4a.jpg

Thank you all for coming along on these crazy journeys. It’s been an amazing year of cruising, but I feel like I’m only just getting started.

 

I think this might be the best one of all times.

Did you keep any of the compasses from the cruise, or does anyone know of any that have been posted?

 

Great thread! Thanks for the info.

I have them all. I will post this week. It’s funny how they don’t state Day 1, 2, 3 etc...as there are guests that embark in Rome as well.

So for my folks not on the gram. Jenny threw down this morning. Making fun of my form on climbing the rocks in Cinque Terre, so of course I had to respond with the shot!

#itwasworthit

200% worth it. That picture is gorgeous.

 

Still a fan of some nice BTS action, though, and I think it's good to show what it takes to achieve these images. You can't really accomplish that standing on a sidewalk with a point and shoot.

I actually showed my boyfriend your Adventure video- he loved it! I’m hoping that if he likes cruising that we can convince another couple to join us. Problem is my age group have only been out of University for 2/3 years so only a small percentage have grabbed jobs that pay enough to justify cruise prices!

 

When I’ve told people I’m going on a cruise, I either get “alright Grandma”or “how boring” . The minority know about RCI and the mega ships, as they are often posted via buzzfeed etc on social media. Me and my bf are camera buffs so are hoping we can create a video which we can share about that shows Cruises can be for young professionals too! Got a DSLR, S9+ and Adobe Premiere Pro between us, so we should manage to get something as half as good as your incredible videos!

I don't think the Rome embarkations start until June 21st but maybe they are already ready for it.

We’ve been cruising since we were in college. You can cruise for a reasonable price. Whether it’s an interior stateroom or smaller/older ship, you can make it work on a budget. We didn’t book balconies until a few years ago.

We love cruising in a big group! You can make a party anywhere!

Look forward to seeing what you come up with!
