Deb & Matt Chat on YT: Matt Can’t Dance… But This Royal Caribbean Sea Day Was Brilliant!

Posted by | Jun 27, 2026 | |

Day 3 aboard Anthem of the Seas is another sea day, but this one is packed with big WOWS, surprises, laughs, food discoveries and a whole lot of fun!

We start the day with breakfast in Windjammer and Café Promenade before exploring the Royal Promenade, checking out the Royal Theatre popcorn stand and trying our luck at bingo.

We also share a Crown & Anchor tip after discovering a loyalty benefit we nearly missed, spend some relaxing time in the beautiful Anthem of the Seas Solarium, and make a brand-new drink discovery thanks to a viewer recommendation — Skrewball peanut butter whiskey.

Then it is off to Italian night in the Main Dining Room, where a simple minestrone soup absolutely steals the show, Deb enjoys an amazing main meal, Matt attempts some very questionable dancing, and our waiter finishes the night with a little dinner table magic.

To wrap up the evening, we enjoy Scared Weird Little Guys and the 80s party onboard Anthem of the Seas.
