Deb & Matt Chat on YT: Is Carnival Splendor getting BETTER or WORSE? Day 2 Cruise Vlog

by Deb & Matt | Jan 4, 2025 | YouTube: Deb And Matt Chat | 0 |

Welcome to Day 2 of our Carnival Splendor adventure! In this vlog, we dive into our experiences aboard this unique and quirky ship. From trying brunch at the Golden Pearl restaurant to navigating the windy mini-golf course on Deck 14, we’re giving you a glimpse into the highlights and challenges of the day.

We also had the opportunity to meet the captain and crew, explore the ship’s layout (spoiler: we found it quite confusing!), and enjoy drinks at the Alchemy Bar after an underwhelming dinner. Along the way, we share our candid thoughts on the decor, food, and overall design of Carnival Splendor.

Join us as we reflect on this eclectic ship—its highs, lows, and everything in between. Have you sailed on Carnival Splendor? Let us know your thoughts in the comments! q

Deb & Matt Chat on YT: SAVE Money! DIY Cruise Laundry

by Deb & Matt | Jul 5, 2024 | YouTube: Deb And Matt Chat | 0 |

In this video Deb takes you through one of her “must pack” cruise items and how it saves us plenty money and reduces our packing needs, especially when we are on a longer #cruise. Given we no longer have to overpack and we can SAVE $$$ this is one of our favourite #cruisetips and #travelhacks for laundry.

Deb recently purchased The @Scrubba wash bag and has been testing it before our big Transpacific cruise on Ovation of the Seas. She shot this video onboard Royal Caribbean Quantum of the Seas, but the great thing is no matter where you travel this product will be useful.

Enjoy the video as she does the washing, and we end up with fresh clean laundry.
