    During this Royal Caribbean Cruise Vlog, Ovation of the Seas docks in Sitka Alaska. We board a zodiac boat and see some amazing whales, otters, and sea lions. Our next stop for this Alaskan cruise aboard Ovation of the Seas is Endicott Arm and Dawes Glacier.

    Views & Queues FAQs
    Where did you get that Royal Caribbean scratch off poster? We make it and sell it ourselves on Etsy! Here’s the link: viewsandqueues...
    Do you two have jobs? Yes! We both have full time careers. Brian is a Software Engineer and Kerry is a Graphic Designer.
    Is this vlog a paid promotion with the cruise line? No, we have never worked with a cruise line before (I doubt they even know who we are 😂). If that ever changes, we will be sure to let you know in the video.
    What are those black pouches around your neck? We use the lanyards to carry some camera equipment, but many cruisers like to wear lanyards to hold their room key card.
    What camera do you use? We typically use the DJI Pocket II, however, when we are in the water we use the Go Pro Hero 9, and in Alaska we occasionally used the Nikon P1000 for wildlife shots. You can find these linked in our Amazon storefront: www.amazon.com... (Full disclosure, these are affiliate links. It costs you nothing more, and we earn a small commission.)
    What is a GUSS? GUSS is our name for a Towel Animal! It is a childhood memory for Brian that has lived on for years. You can see the home video moment where GUSS was born in Adventure of the Seas Day 6 (We Made the News) and Allure of the Seas Day 3 (Sea Day).
    Is that one thing you said serious? Almost certainly not. If you’re new to the channel, we have really dry, sarcastic senses of humor. So if you’re questioning if it’s sarcasm - it probably is.
    How do I ask a dinner time question? Leave a comment on any video and let us know it’s supposed to be answered at dinner time. We’re always looking for new questions (even if the next cruise we can answer it on is a long long way out).
    Is it really pronounced CoCo “Key”? Royal Caribbean has said itself that it is pronounced “Key” in a FAQ of their own here: creative.rccl..... To each their own on this pronunciation!
    When and how did you meet? We met in February of 2020 via a dating app. We answer this question in more detail in our Independence of the Seas Day 2 (Swimming with Pigs) video.
    Where did you get XYZ clothing item, Kerry? I do most of my shopping on Amazon and you can find those items linked in our storefront here: www.amazon.com... (Full disclosure, these are affiliate links. It costs you nothing more, and we earn a small commission.) My sunglasses are a mix of Knockarounds and Blenders. My luggage is Bric's by Ulisse. Those fun flowy pants are from Shein. Other than that, it’s usually TJ Maxx, Kohl’s, JCPenny or Old Navy.

    Will Brian ever propose? He says he will, but 🤷🏻‍♀️

    Great videos! I ran across your channel, searching Ovation and Alaska. We are headed on the same cruise next June. Great video and great editing. Keep up the great work!

      Chris, my wife and I are also on the Ovation for Alaska in June. I came across this video searching for the same. Perhaps we will see you aboard.

    Do you remember what side of the ship your room was on? I'm looking to book this cruise and want a view from the balcony while I'm port. Thank you, love you videos and you both so much! 😊❤

    The half alligator man is called a Parlangua...he is suspected of being responsible for a number of deaths in Louisiana. 😮

    Your itinerary is a bit different from the one we’re going to have next June on Ovation-The Dawes Glacier is actually on Day 3 right before Juneau

    how does this work? once you land at port youre pretty much on your own tg figure out what to do until ship leaves? Or are the tours like built into the cruise?

    • @Views-And-Queues
      @Views-And-Queues  Před 2 lety

      After you book your Royal Caribbean cruise online, you can also book your excursions online, in advance of your cruise, for an additional price, on a website called Cruise Planner. You could also choose to get off the ship and do an activity on your own! You could walk around town, or even find an excursion being advertised to you on the pier when you walk off. But, be aware that the ship will leave if you don’t make it back by the designated time of departure if you are not on an excursion booked through the cruise line. Hope that helps!
