We're cruising on the maiden voyage of the brand new ship from Carnival Cruise Line... Mardi Gras, sailing out of Port Canaveral, Florida! We sailed from July 31 to August 14, 2021 on back-to-back cruises with stops in San Juan, Amber Cove, Nassau, Cozumel, Costa Maya, and Mahogany Bay. This sailing was 95% vaccinated (see our separate protocols video for more information on that) with basically no mask requirements indoors our outdoors, no social distancing, and self-serve buffets. Let's do this thing!

Please don’t worry about negative people.
You guys are responsible human beings, and I appreciate the two of you. I’m glad Dee is resting. 🙏🙏🙏
You two are totally the most rule following folks that ever have been, and if Dee got sick, anyone can. Thank you for being open and honest about your experience. ❤️❤️ Hoping Dee is feeling better, Jay doesn't get sick, and that there are many adventures in your future! 😊😊👍
Move along TROLL!!!
@@TheTruthBomber007 Covid is here forever fact! we humans are not!
live your best life now tomorrow isn't a given.
@@TheTruthBomber007 booooooo! You are so afraid! Stay home for the rest of your life!
I just cackled at the "escandelo" about the Pepsi vs. Coke products. lol
I appreciate you guys taking the time to let everyone know your experience. Everyone that is a regular watcher knows you guys were doing everything right to prevent this. Love you both. I hope Dee feels better.
You must be bored out of your mind to TROLL!
You handled this so well. So did Carnival. Great to see a positive ending as long as Dee recovers quickly. Hugs Dee and Jay.
A truly remarkable video. Sharing your COVID experience, gives all of us cruisers an insight as to what really happens, hoping none of us have to go through this situation. You and Dee are so thoughtful and considerate and know that you are so loved by all of your subscribers. Sending all of our love from your Canadian friends. Be well Dee and take care! And, Jay, you are a great husband.
Thank you so much "Editing Jay" for your upfront, honest, and immensely interesting continuation of this Mardi Gras series. Your transparency with the uncomfortable situation that you both found yourselves in is admirable. We wish you the best, and for Dee to make a full and speedy recovery. We admire you both and continue to enjoy and get caught up on your many wonderful vlogs! 🙏👍👍👍🌞
“Do you boo” lol I love being apart of the maniac family!!
Hope Dee gets better soon. Sending more healing energy your way.
Only been watching ya’ll for about 6 months now and appreciate the heck out of you all sharing your story not just now but always. Hope everyone’s feeling better soon!! I’ll be continuing to travel as much as possible and know you all will as well. Life happens and this unfortunately is now a small part of life.
Been watching for years, and will continue to do so. Life happens, even when you take precautions. Keep doing you! Look forward to future events. *hugs* to Dee
Praying for Dee recovering.
Welcome back.
UPDATES & RANDOMNESS:
Since I realize that people "number" cruise days differently, and Reading Jay isn't entirely sure which method of numbering he ended up using this time around, here's a recap of our timeline with actual dates:
-Sat 7/31 through Sat 8/7 first cruise, no issues
-Sat 8/7 back-to-back day, no issues
-Sun 8/8 first sea day, no issues
-Mon 8/9 Cozumel, no issues other than Dee getting pool water in her nose
-Tue 8/10 Costa Maya, spa day, first mild symptoms presented that evening during Deal Or No Deal, mild throat tickle and some overall achiness, we decided to leave the show and head to bed early as a precaution
-Wed 8/11 Mahogany Bay, symptoms were still cold/flu-like with no obvious COVID triggers but had improved overnight, worsened again after breakfast burritos, canceled our excursion, decided to self-quarantine in our cabin the rest of the day
-Thu 8/12 second sea day, symptoms again cold/flu-like with no obvious COVID triggers and again improved, ventured out of the room that morning masked, still trying to avoid people and stay outside as much as possible, then returned to the cabin, during the "paid room service" session that evening is when Dee first noted the sudden complete loss of smell & taste
-Fri 8/13 third sea day, Jay ventured out solo to get burritos, decided that we would call for a test that day, packed our suitcases, tested, spent the rest of the day filling out forms and talking to doctors, moved to quarantine room that evening
-Sat 8/14 debarkation morning, exited the ship using the approved crew elevators and exits
Some of the main questions that we might not have addressed, that didn't apply directly to us...
-If someone tested positive during a port day rather than a sea day, I *believe* you would be escorted off the ship rather than quarantining onboard, and Carnival helps to make arrangements to get you back home.
-If we had tested prior to the final day of our cruise, I *believe* we would have been refunded for the portion that we were forced to quarantine, but that didn't apply to us.
-From the quarantine zone, I *believe* you can order things that aren't on the standard room service menu, as we saw containers of soup on tables in the hallway, which was not a room service option.
How is Dee feeling?? I pray that she is feeling better😍
I pray Dee is getting better every day! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
So sorry Dee contracted the covid hope she gets better soon! Loved watching your videos to see how much fun you all were having n look forward to more!

This trips vlogs have been amazing just like all of the other vlogs. The MOST important thing is that Dee is ok.

Love you guys so much and cant wait to cruise with you!! Dee and I are snorkeling sisters for sure.
You guys rock! We love your positive attitude and how you all dealt with the situation.

Hope Dee feels better soon!!! And shout out to Jay for keeping her spirits up even though I’m sure your nerves were on edge too!!!
Thank you so very much for sharing! This is the kind of information we all need in case it would happen to any of us. Oh my goodness!! Mojo was adorable as always!! Best of health to Dee and you!! You are in our thoughts!!!
Hi Dee and Jay!
We all love you and we are all seeing prayers and hugs your way 🙏🏻🤗
Thank you for the update. I hope everything goes well from here on out. I have only been following you guys for a month, but you have become a large part of my life I look forward to your videos. Thank you for the wonderful content. 🙏
Glad to see how Carnival handled your quarantine, and that they took care of you both. Get well soon, Dee.
Thank you for sharing. It just shows that anyone can still get COVID. It’s still a part of our lives. You folks did everything right. Hope Dee feels better soon and you can start sailing again soon!!
Great video love to watch y’all. Hope Dee has a speedy recovery and just know that your videos are amazing and thank you for allowing the people to watch such amazing adventures. Rock on!
Wishing Dee a speedy recovery. Thank you so much for this update. It was interesting and actually a comfort to hear how well Carnival are handling positive cases.
So glad to hear that everyone that needed to take care of you did so! I too deal with unpleasant things with humor. Not everyone gets it....I do. Hopefully this passes quickly and you are off and cruising again soon. Jay, I agree with you on the term "new normal" along with "unprecedented". When you say it everyday it's no longer unprecedented!
Your transparency, your positivity, your obvious concern for the health of others, the fact that the amazing kitty adores you....fangirl for life y'all.
I hope Dee is on the mend and y'all are back on the cruise life sooner than later. ❤
Thanks for being honest about your experience, you guys are the best and I hope Dee is feeling better.🙏🙏🙏
Jay, you killed it man. This had to be some of your best reporting! Thank you for taking time for us. Praying real hard for your girl! She’ll be her old self soon!
Thank you Jay and get well wishes to Dee. Love all you do for our cruising community.
This was the very most informative cruise video ever! All the questions we secretly wonder about are answered. Thank you for unselfishly sharing your trip. Well done
I'm keeping you both in my prayers. Hoping for a full speedy recovery for Dee, and for you to stay healthy Jay!
This was the most important vlog ever seen post covid needed to see the process thanks you two and Dee feel better
Don’t pay any attention to those negative folkx. You guys are simply the most caring and awesome youtubers. I guarantee you’ll have 100k subscribers end of year. I appreciate the room service. Rewatching your Carnival Legend Alaska series!
This is real and if we want to cruise this is stuff we need to know. Thanks so much. Sending Prayers.
I hope Dee is all better soon!! I love that you filmed and documented what happens on a Carnival ship if you are positive for covid! Thank you!
Thanks for sharing and you told the story in the positive humorous honest way that you 2 do so well. Rest and heal quickly Dee😷❤🙏
You guys are so loved. I have been praying for you and will continue to. Can’t wait to see the many adventures you have in your future. 😊💜
Even in sickness you guys are so cute! Have to laugh together or go nuts in that tiny room! Way to make the best of it
You guys are such good people. I was so glad to see you posting this today. I’ve been concerned for Dee. Please keep doing what you do and don’t let negativity have any effect on you. Looking forward to your next vlog.
My heart breaks for you guys, Hope you feel better Dee. I love that you can find humor in a terrible situation . I love the tissue hack, so cool. and the best part of the video is seeing MoJo loving on you, he missed you guys so much. sending love and hugs
Dee I hope you recover really quickly and completely. Thank you both for putting out these vlogs. You gave us so much information on the process and I appreciate it. Sending positive and healing vibes.
Thank you guys for the update! Hope Dee gets better quickly! I'm new to your vlogs in the last year or so, but love following along and watching your trips. I'm hoping I'm lucky enough to be on a sailing with you guys some day to say hi! You guys handled all of this amazingly well and I respect everything youve done here. I appreciate the openness, the honesty, and the "normalcy" of the response to a real-life scenario that any of us could encounter. Calm seas and fair winds soon!
You guys are so real and has the respect of us all . Thank you for being you .
Great job Jay!! Sending my wishes to Dee for a quick recovery!! See you tonight. ❤❤❤❤
What an adventure. I'm glad both of you are safely home. I'm wishing Dee a speedy recovery.
You both are just the cutest, sweetest, kindest people ever. You would have had every right to just stop the videos until Dee was feeling better and we all would have understood completely. But I admit it is also interesting to hear how the ship handled the situation as well, and thank you so much for sharing that with us. You definitely went over and above by giving us this extra insight. Please feel better and take care of you first and foremost. Hugs!! 🛳💦💦
Love and prayers for you both. Thank you for sharing your story with us!
So glad you did this vlog! You gave us first hand information on how the COVID process works. Hoping Dee gets better real fast and without lasting symptoms.
I hope Dee has a quick recovery! I am so sorry that happened to her! Big hugs for both of you!
Sending my love to you both!! Thank you for sharing and know the Padgett's are sending you hugs and prayers for a speedy recovery.
So amazing of you both to share this experience. Just loved how Mojo put the paw on your shoulder at the end. Continued prayers and well wishes for a speedy recovery.
Thank you for always taking us along on your adventures. I’ve watched you two for years and will continue to do so. Much love to you both especially Dee! God bless you both! Now for the next adventure! Waiting patiently.🥰🥰🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Feel better soon Dee..so sorry you got ill. Thanks for keeping us informed.💖
I'm so glad everyone treated you both so well. I hope Dee has a speedy recovery. She had me in tears from your other video, no one should ever feel bad about getting a illness they have no control over. You both have gone above and beyond and you just never know. You both are one of my favorite CZcamsrs and I hope you get back to sailing soon.
I’m glad you’re doing well. Can’t wait to see your next adventures! 🤗
Thank you so much for sharing the rest of the story. We leave Friday for our Saturday cruise on Mardi Gras and I have pretty much been distraught since your video yesterday morning. I feel a bit better now after knowing how you were treated. I am still so sorry that you got sick Dee, it will wear you down. I took months to get better but I am much older than you and far less healthy. Thank you again for sharing and please get well soon!
Wishing you a speedy recovery Dee, plenty of rest and hydration.🙏🙏
Praying for a quick recovery and I hope you don't fall victim Jay. Thanks for sharing your lives with us all.
We are so sorry that you guys had to experience this but very appreciative that you allowed us to come along and “experience” protocols/procedures. You two are wonderful - Rock On 🤘 ❤️ PS - love the kitty 😻
COVID is bad enough when your at home in your on bed. I can’t imagine how dee must have felt not being at home . I’m so sorry this happened to her and you.
You guys have quickly become one of my favorite travel CZcams vloggers!! My heart goes out to Dee. Hope she’s resting and gets better soon. I agree… I don’t think the ugly c is going anywhere anytime soon and will be part of our lives for a while.
Been watching you guy for a long time , I have tears in my eyes for Dee , my prayers are with you both , thank you for trying to keep this light. Jay We have lost so many people from this ugly Virus, please take good care , keep us up to date , sending hugs and prayers and good vibes 💜🥂
Awww Mojo is so sweet, he missed you guys. You two are so awesome. Your honesty, integrity and humor (love your humor) always shine through. Get well soon Dee and Jay, hoping you are able to stay COVID free. Take care you two and rest up.
I love your cruising/vacation stories. They are very well delivered and educational. I hope Dee is continuing to get better and wish you all the best. Take good care!
You definitely deserve a redo on the Mardi Gras! Healing prayers for Dee.
Sorry you had to go through all of that but it was good to see first hand how you would be tested, relocated & treated! Thanks & speedy recovery for Dee!!
We got ya' both. 100%. Jen and I are both vested and fans because of just how real and who you both are. We prepared for our first cruise in 20 years back in Nov. 2019 and found you all on CZcams. Binge watched all you had out there. Cruise was to have happened in Feb. 2020. Then all the world stood on its head! We've rescheduled 4 times and currently on for Feb of 2022. Anyway,
you all and Tony and Jenny have educated, encouraged and motivated us in every way and in the most weird of ways, we feel like we are cruisers even though we haven't been in 20 years. Thank you for what you do, it can't be easy as much fun as it looks like on the viewers side. No doubt, you are real people and living through a real life situation that we are all prone to. Much respect for the way you handled this and your transparency. Stay positive and Dee, GET WELL SOON!
Prayers for you both and keep your head up. You all are amazing! Get well Dee.
Thank you for sharing your experience. And yes with the seriousness of it, you two have the best spirit. Kudos to Carnival!!! Keep resting Dee! We're thinking of you Love to both!
Get well soon Dee I look forward to your next adventure
Dee you are in my prayers and hope you feel better soon. I’ve been watching you and Jay for over 3 1/2 years. I love your cruise vlogs!
Thank you guys for sharing with us. I'm soo glad that you both got home ok. I am hoping that she gets better and that she can go and do her snorkeling that she likes to do. Thanks for your sharing Jay.
We were on the first sailing with you guys, keeping Dee in our prayers for a speedy recovery! Thank you so much for sharing your experience!
The positive of this video is you have shared with us the real cruising experience of what it’s like to cruise in 2021! You guys are awesome and I appreciate you sharing the whole thing with us.
