Day 6 aboard Anthem of the Seas is another sea day, but it turns into a big one!

We start with brunch in the Main Dining Room before heading to Captain’s Corner in Two70, where Matt asks about the possibility of year-round Royal Caribbean cruising in Australia — and the answer gives us a little bit of hope for the future.

Then Dorothy the Dinosaur arrives for a dance party, Matt gets very distracted while trying to work, and there may be a little Wiggles boogie involved.

After that, we make the dangerous decision to visit the NextCruise desk… and you know what that means. Not one, but TWO more cruises booked!

We also enjoy dinner in the Main Dining Room, more dinner-side magic and science from our waiter Iqbal, and share a handy Royal Caribbean room service breakfast tip, including how to order, what is included, and when extra charges apply.

Finally, the dreaded departure letter arrives — but this time it is not so bad, because we are doing the back-to-back cruise process and staying onboard for the next sailing.

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.

Day 2 aboard Anthem of the Seas was meant to be a relaxing sea day… but it turned into something much more!

After a leisurely brunch, we met some wonderful viewers and unexpectedly found ourselves enjoying an open house tour of one of Royal Caribbean’s spectacular Grand Loft Suites.

See what a relaxing morning routine looks like on board in this cruise vlog, we start our second morning feeling rested and refreshed while sailing to our next destination. We explore the ship deck to check the weather conditions before heading inside for a delicious cruise ship brunch. If you are planning a trip or just curious about life at sea, this travel day vlog offers a realistic look at our daily onboard experience.

We also share a quick food highlight, including a warm apple cobbler with ice cream that we enjoyed during our meal. Whether you are curious about the food quality or the general atmosphere on the Anthem of the Seas, this video gives you an honest glimpse of our day at sea.

Of course, no day would be complete without another delicious dinner in the Main Dining Room and a few laughs along the way.

Sea Day Royal Caribbean on Voyager of the Seas and things got… interesting.

What started with laser tag quickly turned into a full pirate takeover onboard.

Join us for a fun-filled “day in the life” aboard our Royal Caribbean cruise! We kick things off with breakfast, then head straight into an exhilarating “laser tag” battle. Later, we’re planning a lively “pub crawl” and enjoying all the “family fun” activities this “cruise” has to offer.

🏴‍☠️ Pirate pub crawl
💍 A pirate wedding ceremony
🔔 “Captain! Ring the Bell!”
🍽 Main Dining Room lunch
🐘 Towel animal surprises
🎉 Evening parties

Sea days on Royal Caribbean are never boring — but this one was next level. This is certainly not a family friendly day at say – but is definitely LOTS of fun.

If you’re wondering what to do on a cruise sea day, here’s what happened when pirates took over our ship.

Day 3 on our Voyager of the Seas New Year’s Eve cruise might just be one of the most fun-packed days of the trip.

Good morning, good morning! It’s “day3” of our cruise, and we have a restaurant booking for lunch at Izumi, but first, we need to sort out a diary conflict. Later, we’re looking forward to the 70s disco party, after some fun “mini golf” and a “family friendly” performance. Join us for another exciting day onboard!

We kick things off with the Royal Murder Mystery Trivia Game, teaming up with friends to solve the case. From there, it’s off to Izumi for specialty dining lunch, followed by some downtime where we create our own fun onboard with a new card game we brought along — Flip 7.

As the sun sets, we head out for mini-golf at sea, before the night really comes alive with:

🥢Dinner in the Main Dining Room
🎤The Music in Pictures show in the Royal Theatre
🪩A full-blown 70s Disco Inferno Party on the Promenade
🎤Late-night entertainment in the Star Lounge

This video perfectly shows how sea days on Voyager of the Seas balance activities, downtime, food and night-time entertainment — especially on longer cruises.

👇 Question for you:
Are you more about organised cruise activities, or do you prefer bringing your own entertainment onboard?
