Love waking up to your videos. I would love to see your Christmas trees with the ornaments you have collected.
Me too!,
I think that would be really fun!
Yes, me too!
@livingphase2 We would love to see a video of all the Christmas ornaments that you purchased during the 9 month cruise! Perhaps update us all in November/December when you decorate your World Cruise Christmas Tree! It would be a joy! Thanks for sharing your travels! (P.S. we live in Windsor, Ontario Canada but have property near Atlanta/Lewiston, Michigan not too far from where you hail)
This is Nancy speaking, and absolutely. I will share our Christmas tree this coming December.🥰🎄
I love that Mike is so good about giving "Pro Tips" at so many of the ports.
Thanks so much!

Thank you for the Pro Tips! We will be in Taiwan and Japan in April 2025 on a 28 day cruise. Can't wait!
You are so welcome and have a wonderful trip!
I was in Taipei at the end of April. I thought I was going to die on those stairs! Every time I looked there were more stairs. We didn’t go all the way up. Our tour guide took us to lunch and the to an another restaurant for a tea ceremony. The views were beautiful.
Yes, it was beautiful and yes, so many stairs!
Love your tree ornament. My daughter and I started collecting Christmas tree ornaments on our travels and what fun it is to unbox them each year as we prepare for Christmas and reminisce on our travels!! ❤️🎄
Exactly! I feel like every year Christmas. This will bring back such great memories.
Thanks for the Taiwan tips. Will definitely use for my upcoming trip. Saved this video and many of your others !!
Glad it was helpful
We have so enjoyed every single video and adventure! It’s been so fun watching you both enjoy this cruise and clearly enjoying doing it together ❤ just wonderful
Thanks so much!!
I'm really enjoying your videos, thanks for sharing your adventures! It looks like you are taking full advantage of every day in port!🛳
We certainly try to take advantage of every minute in these locations.
Love the village
Thanks so much!
I love Taiwan, a favorite place to visit. Thanks for bringing back memories from my recent visit.
Thanks so much for following along with us on our journey.
I love when you guys post
Thanks so much!

Yay!!!!
Loving the back-to-back videos! ❤
Yay! Thank you!
The bullet is unique.
Lep pozdrav iz Slovenije
Bravo to you Nancy for climbing those stairs. I hope you had a day to rest your legs and feet
Nancy here and yes, it was a lot of stairs!
Oh my goodness this was such a fun video for me to see. I was in Taipei with my husband when the 101 wasn’t completely done. My husband was Nation Commander of AMVETS at that time and we were there as guest. We were taken to the very top 101 floor!!! We were told that after completion that the public wouldn’t be able to go to the 101st floor, that it would be private then. It was so fun to go on the elevater that was so fast! We had to get off on one of the 80th floors and take a different elevator to continue to 101. I have a picture of us wearing hard hats 😂. Thank you so much this brought back so many good memories. I’m happy to see you enjoying your journey❣️
Oh, that’s really cool. Thank you for sharing with us this memory as we love to read things like this.❤️
Those stairs! I never would have made it. Great job! You missed the earthquake by just a few days. I'm glad you weren't there for that.
You know, we were all talking about that earthquake and yes, we just missed it.😬
So nice. You will have to show us your tree this holiday.
Definitely!!❤️
Thanks for your great videos 🥰
Glad you like them!
Loving your videos..Thanks for sharing x
Thanks so much!
Love Taiwan - Can't wait to see Japan though. Thank you guys so much for sharing :)
So much for following along our journey!
A tip: if you fly into Taiwan, the currency exchange at the airport would give you the best rate. Yes, completely different from most of the rest of the world.
Interesting. Thanks for sharing this tip with us.
Thank you, hugs
Thanks so much!
Love your videos! Keep up the good work!! Royal is treating you so well.
Thanks so much. And we have nothing but kind words to say about Royal.😀
WOW 😮 😮😮😮
Stay Safe All Ways All
🥰
the tallest building special event tour for you Wow!!!!!!!
just so lovely very special
to watch
and all the shops
at the gold town
very sorry that the tour guide should have asked, does any one have to get local money out first and tell you where you can do that
taking people up 800steps to a village with many food shops and many other shops without money, very sad that happened to you
glad you found a place near your ship later in the day and found some yummy local food to enjoy
It was amazing. And at least the money thing all worked out. Thanks so much for following along with us. We appreciate you!😀
Thank you
Love all your videos. So fascinating 😊
Glad you like them!
Hello Nancy and Mike ❤❤❤❤
Hello. 🥰
You should have a separate Christmas tree just for all the world cruise collection. Hope you make a video of that tree
I absolutely plan to do a video of our Christmas tree with all the world Cruise ornaments on it.😉
@@livingphase2 I was hoping that you would do that! Looking forward to that video near Christmas time! Thank you!

Wonderful video from Taiwan. Where did you get the picture behind you when you are talking from your cabin?
The picture behind us is just a cabin picture that does not belong to us.
The fact that you already had footage of the next stop makes me curious.
Do only film the narration shortly before you upload or is the narratiion down weeks ago?
We create the videos and narration within just a few days after visiting each location. We have to do it right away or we might forget.
That’s a lot of stairs 😮.
Yes!
Diane here: lots more multi
cables needed--what even is weight of the bldg ??
We can’t even imagine what the weight of it is. It would be a crazy amount.😉
I picked this video of yours as being the most recent video of yours in the hope that I can get an answer back from you. I will be boarding the Serenade of the Seas on August 10, 2024 in Copenhagen to departing Amsterdam on the 19th of August. I noticed that when the ship leaves Copenhagen it will be going back to the Miami, Florida. Is this part of your World Cruise? If so, do you tend to go to the Diamond Club for the evening appetizers, maybe I will run into you there. It will be unusual for me to be going on a single cruise as opposed to my usual back-to-back trips. I don't envy you folks when it comes time to pack up to go home. I collect magnets on my trips and meeting the luggage weight limits is a big challenge for me. FYI - the 7-11store just across the street from the ship did take US currency when I was there in February this year; I walked that same block you did and I too found that they only wanted local currency. I went on a RCCL trip from Copenhagen to Iceland and Greenland on a ship returning to Boston in September 2022 so the Amsterdam to Miami trip this September didn't interest me. I did a lot of stressing over trying to find the head net for Qaqortoq, Greenland and finally gave up but when we got to Qaqortoq, the Shore Excursion crew gave out the head nets for their passengers and I was able to buy the net at the hardware store next to the main gift shop where the tender boats dock for just a dollar or two as opposed to $15 on line.
Yes, the cruise he will be taking is part of the world cruise. So happy to have you joining us. We go to the diamond lounge occasionally for happy hour. Was so many on board. They have opened it up into the vortex in the evenings. we rotate our happy hours around the ship to the different locations, Schooner bar, vintages, R bar. Please be sure to stop us and say hello as we would love to meet you. And if you see us in the Windjammer for breakfast or lunch, sit down and have a meal with us. See you soon!
Seeing your videos makes me more excited for my August trip.
gee you only mentioned it twice (that i know of) that you are on a "9 month round the world cruise"
That is correct, we're on a 9-month world cruise. 🤣🤣🤣
@@livingphase2 how could anyone forget when you constantly mention it every 30 seconds
Thank you so much for your videos 🥰 they are so pleasant and informative. Both my husband and I look forward to seeing them. I think you guys are just fantastic people. Love your positive energy.
