  • On our Ultimate World Cruise today, we tour La Serena Chile. Tge La Serena Chile area is known for its beautiful valley, quaint towns, massive grape production pisco distilling, and good food. We toured around La Serena tasting pisco, taking in the views and enjoying a meal cooked only by the sun. This is another case on our ultimate world cruise where we had no idea what was there, until we learned from the locals all the area had to offer.

    I've watched so many documentaries about cruise ships, and one thing i know for certain, is that cruises are good for you (as long as you don't overeat). The food is all FROM SCRATCH no preservatives no extras, just quality food made fresh daily. You can not beat that!!! Plus, adventures keep you moving and you get to see all of those beautiful places! I'm so happy i found your channel, because i've been contemplating doing a world cruise - or even spending a good portion of my retirement on a boat and away! I may be aging myself but one of my all time favorite sitcoms is "The Love Boat" have you guys every seen it? Thank you so much for sharing your adventures and your smiles and GOOD ENERGY!!! I've been coming back every day just to watch another video lol, i can't wait to cruise again! ~Contessa

    One thing that I love is that it's clear that you two are best friends. There are some couples who wouldn't make it spending so much time with one another with all of the little natural annoyances. I love the way you look at each other and your interactions. Okay, reactions now:
    - As a foodie myself, solar cooking sounds amazing! I looked and you can actually buy one of those big dish things on Amazon, because of course you can. I'd be terrified to burn myself!
    - Frankie Valli tribute band sounds GREAT! I'm with Nancy!
    - Great to know about the sushi making class. That's offered on both of my upcoming Royal cruises and no one wanted to do it. Of course it's sold out on both cruises now, but I'll have to keep my eye out for it for the future, even if I end up doing it by myself!
    - The CLIFF HANGER! I can't wait!

      That’s a good suggestion. We’ll think about it. As for right now, the cruise was 70,000 per person and we budgeted about 20,000 for excursions. But since we’ve been on the cruise other than that, we haven’t really spent anything. Just a few small souvenir Christmas ornaments.

    Hi Nancy question you guys mentioned you purchased some pisquo sour is that alcohol and if so do they hold it until the end of the cruise like normal cruises to the Caribbean? Also do they offer storage areas if you wanted to purchase something rather large since you are visiting so many great places. Sorry for tge questions, but you guys are visiting such amazing places I would definitely want something from almost each place.😊

    • @livingphase2
      @livingphase2  Před 3 měsíci +1

      Great questions. Pisco is really equivalent to wine and his world cruisers. We are allowed to have wine in our rooms on the ship. And no, they would not store anything large in the way of souvenirs. They have stored some of our luggage. If I were going to buy something large, I would have it shipped home right away.

    I don’t want to be disrespectful but between Arica and la Serena you have Atacama desert one of the most arid places in the world. Also Valparaiso is a UNESCO heritage site and there is one of Pablo Neruda’s houses that can be visited. I think those places are not popular destinations for cruises and difficult to navigate
    for massive tourism but definitively worth a try. I would love to go to the Atacama desert.
