    Day number 6 looked like a lot of fun even though it was a sea day. But sea days are always what you make of it. You not are always fun.

      @@ryanandkala One question we have for you, we have booked a Moet Champagne tasting session on our next Explorer run - they also offer Caribbean rum and wine tasting sessions - did you see any of these happing? if so, where did they host the tasting sessions? We are guessing R-Bar or similar.

    I left this response on Instagram when the initial Q&A was posted about your guys' vacation days amounts... where Ryan gets 4 weeks of vacation and Kala only gets 3 weeks... One extra week per year of vacation time for Ryan?? Sooooooo, Ryan be like, "See you later, Kala, I'm headed out to Miami for my solo cruise. I'll see you when I get back, have a fun week at *work!!!"* 😉

      Honestly, I’m not usually one to complain as long as there are options available I am happy. However, with that being said, I found the options to be the exact same every single day and were a little bland and seemed like they really didn’t put any effort into it. Every day for breakfast there was mashed potatoes, cauliflower, and green beans!? They did have eggs, but they were runny and didn’t make any effort to make any sort of potato or home fry or have any sort of gluten-free toast available. I remember one of the ships we were on had gluten-free toast with avocado so I know they can do better! To me it just seemed a bit lazy! Thankfully for me I am not a huge breakfast person anyways!

    Hi Ryan and Kayla, we love you both and your channel❤.
    We are on the Explorer in September and wondering how you reserve places for the evening shows, the rc app doesn't allow us to reserve yet. Thanks so much.

    • @ryanandkala
      @ryanandkala  Před měsícem +1

      You won’t be able to do it until you’re on the ship wifi on board. Most of the shows don’t require reservations on the explorer (that’s more of an oasis class and higher thing) explorer is more first come basis so I wouldn’t worry! Just get there a bit early to get some good seats!
