The traffic was insane. We’re here. You okay? Let me help you. over here okay? follow me guys He helped me with my luggage. And then… thank you, bye bye He said we can board the ship further ahead. You could’ve shown some appreciation. Say thanks to the guy. That guy~~~ was me! Right in front of me, he said it. Sorry, no tip? What should I do! I had three pieces of luggage. So I gave him three bucks. Just do what you gotta do. This guy… Haha. Welcome to QBao Travel. It’s 10:24 AM, Miami time. We’re now in Miami. Royal Caribbean Terminal A. Pier A. Our check-in time is actually 12:00. We got here so early—will they let us in? I’m fine waiting. i can’t wait. can’t wait…… can’t wait The point is—we haven’t eaten anything since this morning. This guy refused to eat. Nope. I starved for three days just to eat free food on the ship. That line is for special access. Only those with The Key can go there. We didn’t buy The Key. It’s like tens of dollars a day. We should explain it for everyone. Some people might not know what ship this is or its background. Alright. See this logo right here? This is the world’s most outrageous cruise company. Royal Caribbean International. We’re boarding their newest, craziest, biggest ship— The largest cruise ship in the world. Icon of the SEAS. It’s Icon, alright. Yep. let’s go. let’s move See? It’s organized by check-in time. I really tried to book early. But maybe because we’re in Taiwan… Our timing wasn’t as quick. We got into the second wave—12 o’clock group. Show it, show it. Can’t see it, let’s go. Alright~ this is the place. This terminal is actually pretty busy. Traffic was really jammed. Plan your time accordingly. Don’t be late. Wow. you know your cabin number? Photo time. perfect This entire terminal is actually theirs. In the U.S., they all have their own. Even Margaritaville has their own. Whoa~~ Impressive, huh? By the way—just a reminder: You can check in online between 45 and 3 days before boarding. If you do that, you won’t need to line up for manual processing. That goes for any cruise. Always do your web check-in early. And fill out the health questionnaire 48 hours before departure. They’ll ask if you have any cold symptoms. And make sure that during the cruise— You’re not past a certain number of pregnancy weeks. When we entered, since we’re not Americans— They asked if we were on a visa or what. And we’re using ESTA to visit these countries. So we don’t need a visa at all. So many people! This guy— So smooth.
We’re in now. Grab my camera… I need my camera. No waiting at all. Look how many people are here. I actually counted earlier. Just for the security scanners— And they’re the high-tech automatic ones— There are six lanes. Super fast. I’m ready. can’t wait Wahahaha! This is amazing! OK go Haha! (Mom, I’m on TV!) So many people taking photos here. Wow. This is awesome. Feels like my phone’s not wide enough for this. What do we do? It’s overwhelming. Where should we go first? Let’s go to our muster station first. This place is huge. And it smells amazing. The moment you walk in—it smells so good. Are we doing a runway walk now? Alright~ go go go go go! (This video includes more third-person shots taken with Insta360.) We’re finally aboard the world’s largest cruise ship! And as of today, it’s officially one year old. Still the biggest in the world. Even after this summer— When the new Star of the Seas sets sail— It’ll be the same size. Still the largest in the world. Let’s grab some free food first! Wahahaha! Everything’s free! For real? Wow. This kinda looks like Bento Baby.
(For more, check out Virgin Voyages.) Cool. Can’t believe the first thing I grabbed was salad.
can i get one brûlée Can’t believe the first thing I grabbed was salad. Cookies are up for grabs too. thank you Wait—there’s more over this way too! Didn’t I tell you… no need for breakfast? Hahaha Just eat here instead! Right? Right? Just eat breakfast here! You booked 12 o’clock entry. What time is it now? 10:48. And you have no shame. It’s just about right. I paid so much to get on this ship— How can I eat without drinks? The coffee over there costs money. But… Ooh!
It’s free! Drink freedom, baby! Look at these options. So many choices! There’s even more in the back. Not bad at all. Free Earl Grey—
Milk tea too. If it’s Twinnings, you gotta drink it. Right now is the quietest time. The first boarding group is actually at 11:30. And we’re in the second group at 12:00. But you know—they cleared it out early. So we could come on board anytime. Some people can’t board until 3 PM. Such a waste. That’s why your boarding time matters. Don’t waste even a second. Make sure to grab that early slot! First meal—just grabbing some ham and salad. Mmm. Free drinks taste extra good. The food quality is actually pretty decent. You thought that was whipped cream? Nope. That’s sugar. Is it good? That soft layer under the crème brûlée… Check out the view outside. I’m talking about this giant, super tall window here. It doesn’t even feel like we’re on a ship. This must be three stories high. Massive. Look closely—each panel moves. (Each one is independently controlled.) (Isn’t that huge?) So cool—seriously! So what’s next? Somewhere cute. (Point & Feather bar—I’ve barely been in here.) Haha~ What are you doing? I remember there’s a sailor dog around here somewhere? Rover. Tomorrow, tomorrow. This is my muster station. A few hours before boarding at home, they’ll notify you— and let you preview your safety video. Pay attention to what the 7-short-1-long horn sounds like. Next, we head to the assembly point. Our muster station is F3. So we just go straight to the location. welcome to icon of the seas There are 18 decks in total. The top deck is where the waterslides are. Let’s go somewhere awesome. You’ll never be bored on this ship. Never bored—+1. Never bored—+2.
Are we ever gonna finish filming? Should we come back again? That’s a must. Are you hungry? I heard there’s lobster on the menu today. Let’s walk around a bit first, okay? Don’t make it so obvious, please? Hahaha Tone it down a little. I think your belly isn’t very subtle. Hahaha Let me ask you—have you ever seen an escalator on a cruise ship? Take the escalator up to the casino—how wild is that? That’s insane. Should we go take a look? I know what to do first onboard now— The kids club. Ohhh. Once we have kids onboard, we can’t go in anymore. Let’s go, let’s go. I want to take some photos. ¯_(ツ)_/¯ You say something one second, forget it the next. It’s not open right now. Oh~ alright.
Can’t get in. Can’t get in. That’s what it looks like inside though. Dang, I can’t get a shot. This one, this one, this one— Oh—it’s open now! We’re like a bunch of bumpkins. Seriously. Looking around—it’s actually pretty big. Really big. There’s even more in the back. oh my god This is just the slot machines. There are also table games. Do you think the casino here gets crowded? There’s even a VIP section. Alright~ I’ll let you guys explore it yourself. Where are we headed next? Going the other way. Oops—we ended up at the restaurant again. You’re totally thinking about eating again, huh? What about your kids club? This way looks like the theater area. I already know, I already know! It’s open again. Hey!! Is this a theater? Main theater. Ah—got stuck! Let’s check out the food. I really want to see it. There’s a private event going on here. No wonder I saw drinks and everything ready. All set up with drinks and more. Let’s come back after the event’s over. You can book this space too.
Yeah. Main theater. We passed a staff member earlier—he said “Have fun!” I paused for a second— Wait… he spoke Chinese! Hi B3 Oh no, I done, we done thank you thank you Whoa this place is huge. There’s even a second floor. Second floor? There’s a lower level too! Wow. Should we go down? Haha sure! It’s so big… I don’t even know how to film it. Can’t see it from up here. Think there are any seats? Yeah~ there are seats up top. Let’s go. Here comes the blue carpet! These stairs are super wide too. Here’s how the seats upstairs look. So many rows. Alright. Told you—you should just ask someone. They didn’t know either. Is that what they said? They said it’s at Social 020. Wanna try some Sorrento’s pizza? Weren’t you going to the kids club? Just passing by~ Free drinks next door! I didn’t buy it. It’s $10 a day. Now it’s $11. He refuses to pay. Hi. Which one do you want? oh no no just look Everything looks pretty good! can I get you anything? yes please um Hahahaha Didn’t you say we were just passing by? which one is the best Hahahaha okay American combo Highly recommended. thank you thank you Pizza, round two. Who said we were going to the kids club? I said we were just passing by. What are you doing? Tell them yourself! Look at this.
It’s so good—super thin! Let’s eat together. Oh wow—it smells amazing. Delicious. Crispy thin crust. Not quite like the Italian pizza on MSC. Still super tasty! We’ve looped all the way back again. I just saw someone walking in wearing a gown! Like, seriously… (Impressive.) Every level feels extra tall and open. Wow. The space flows from one level to another like that. Pretty nice. Let’s go. This way, this way, this way. Adventure! Yeah—it looks super cool! Hurry up and take your pics—we’re going to the slides! Hey kids, what’s this thing for? Just for decoration. Is this a game?
Yeah, it is. It’s a touchscreen. Oh oh oh oh! This thing’s huge! Looks super fun to play. This screen is taller than I am. So fun! hello hello It’s divided by age. 6 to 36 months. Under 3 years old go in there. This one’s for ages 3 to 5. Let’s go. So 3–5 year olds play with these? And there’s more over here. Play kitchen area. What’s up? You wanna play now? Alright~ that’s the whole space. They said no diapers allowed. No filming or photography either. But we’re filming right now. There’s no one here. That’s why we came today— We won’t be able to film later. One of the rooms earlier had kids in it. So I couldn’t film there. That’s it for now. Do your own unboxing~ That screen’s taller than you. Wouldn’t kids have trouble seeing it? Their necks are gonna hurt, haha. There’s a shorter one too. Playmaker game zone. I don’t know how to play this. That one looks buffer—see? Looks way more ripped. Feels kinda like a sports bar. (Well, yeah—what else?) They even have Mario Kart here. Pool table too. Arcade games. Air hockey. Pretty sure it’s one per person. They’ve got shuffleboard too. Where are we now? Absolute Zero. Whoa~ it’s super chilly in here. Ice skating rink! It really is colder in here than outside. That’s real ice below us. So cool! 準備好了嗎？
are you ready? let’s go (Lost for words.) This is too over-the-top. I can’t even move anymore. Come here! Look, there’s a float ring. A giant bird! oh my god it’s huge! I just realized there’s a slide next to it! There’s a playground too. This is awesome.
Wanna play? Carousel. People are lining up here. Ice cream! Everyone’s filming. There’s no way we can cover all this in one go. Should we split it into two parts? This video might end up being four hours long. It’s not over yet—look up ahead. There are even more rides here! People are already playing. Hey, where are my swim trunks? I have no idea what to film anymore. It’s got everything! Wahahaha! Norwegian Cruise Line didn’t come today. That’s Carnival over there. The view from here is amazing. Alright~ let’s go. This looks like something you could play on forever. Like a theme park. Look, it’s shaped like a banana! Even the little details are themed. So cute. I’m telling you, right next to the water slide— There’s a changing room here. Super convenient. Look at his clothes— The towel he’s wearing— Look at the top! Wahahahaha! If you don’t wanna walk—just slide instead! Let’s go! Everyone’s carrying a camera. Snapping pics non-stop is standard here. When people are taking pics, they’re promoting you. Everyone becomes your marketing. No wonder their stock price is booming. They’re just different. let’s go Come on, stop stopping every few seconds! Here’s a fun fact— All the plants you see here are real. Nope. This totally feels like a different zone, you know? I still can’t believe it. oh my god Central Park—
It’s all real plants! It’s so relaxing walking through here. I hear birds chirping. Are they real or not? Fake.
(Wait no—they’re real.) Why are you walking right behind me? I’m filming! This place is really amazing. Look at this. There’s a little gazebo here—
Totally European vibes. It feels so atmospheric. Wahahaha! So much stuff! Hey look, your favorite melons. quick bite, just grab? yes thank you Mushroom soup. There’s chicken soup too. Chicken noodle soup. hello Whoa—this bread looks amazing. It’s for sandwiches. Panini? Salad. There are so many salad options! There are six types of dressing alone. And more over here. And look—there’s even potato chips. Every time I see this, it hurts a little. Just buy it now! Nope. Tons of dips to choose from too. The harder the melon is to get, the sweeter it tastes. Hahaha! Looks good—just one bite. Too sweet. They’ve set up so many restaurants— That’s how they spread people out. We haven’t even covered one-third yet. What do we do? Hold up— The main thing for today—you gotta check the time. It’s about time. Let’s show you something epic— Next stop, next stop! Can’t take your eyes off any of it. I’m gonna release an episode— “I tried all the free food on this ship.” Let everyone see— How great life is when you’re living that freebie life! Just watch that episode and you’ll know. I’ll tell you a little secret— But you can’t film it. Oh? Secrets can’t be shared. This guy is seriously no fun! This is the restaurant that we Asians care the least about. Just took a quick glance. sushi We might not eat sushi, but we might go for this— Hong Kong-style egg waffles. 8 bucks each. Let’s go. No more food—move it! That one’s not free! Someone’s diving in. hello i don’t know how to explain He’s trying to pitch us the Japanese restaurant. But we are absolutely not going into that one. Two weeks before this cruise departed, a bunch of stuff went on sale— except teppanyaki. That one’s too popular. Fully booked. We can just eat teppanyaki in Taiwan. Even though we talked about this a long time ago— this was actually Royal Caribbean’s first one. Still worth mentioning— the smart elevators. MSC had them way earlier. But that’s okay. Let’s introduce them anyway. How smart? We’re heading to Windjammer to eat, right? Hit 15 for me. G See the arrow? This solves the problem of people randomly pressing buttons. No need to press floors inside the elevator. Just press the floor outside. I’m telling you— everyone has the same goal: windjammer There’s just too much food here. We’re at the front of the ship now. They’ve got food there too. Are you sure it’s different? Totally different. So much free food everywhere! Let’s go eat what Asians are good at. This is key… take notes! Haha, wow hahaha. What a great view from here. Let’s eat first. We’ll film later. Come on, hurry up! Hey—he’s taking photos. So good. Whoa—someone’s already in the whirlpool! He’s diving! Come on, quick! On our way! sprinkle i have to get one Hey, weren’t you gonna… chocolate yeah wow oh so high thank you My sprinkle’s gone… Let’s go, let’s go. Another slide again. Where do we slide down from? This is so tasty. Did you see over there? Kids are already on it. I want to ride it too later. These lounge chairs are amazing. Lying down again? No way—we’re eating first. cold beer Okay, this guy. WindJammer Marketplace. Let’s move! Mr. Washy Washy! Wash your hands! Oh! So hot! It’s huge. Pasta. (The buffet on Icon is seriously amazing.) Look at that beef in the back. It’s starting! Whoa. Grilled steak. Salmon. Grilled chicken legs. What’s that shellfish over there? Hahaha. Looks like it’s almost gone. There’s more in the back. Here’s filet mignon too. Grilled peppers and jumbo shrimp. That butter’s probably for the lobster. Clarified butter. This is like a main dining room! Let’s see what you got. Ohh. Look at all that on the side. Man, I don’t even know how to shoot this. Creamed corn. Wait a sec. It’s seafood. Wow, so many choices! There’s more here! I’m telling you, these are all different flavors. Scallops, right? Wait, what’s that tower in the back? (Crab) claws! Hahahaha. Hey, I noticed something. They just move the same stuff around. The whole tray— Don’t take it all! Oh look, little oranges. Asians are more sensitive about seafood. Yeah. There’s salmon and cod. Get one! I’ve only walked through a little. A whole turkey! So overwhelming. This is it. Just these two plates up front— So good. Protein boost! Royal Caribbean may not be known for food… But Icon has the highest food budget in the fleet. And of course, the highest prices too. Not lobster every day… But they hit you hard on day one. Hahaha. A little shock to start with. Scared me. The plating’s a bit messy. But just look around! Is that filet? Yeah. Try it! What if it’s overcooked? Just eat it already. I didn’t get a b-roll shot! It’s fine, no worries. Let me try this little shrimp for everyone. Whoa, how do you even eat this? It’s so chewy. Feels kinda sticky too. And you said you could handle it! Forget it, forget it. Alright then. Mmm. So chewy. Delicious. That little drizzle of butter I added at the end— Nice, not bad! Only thing is, it’s not super hot. Guys, I did it! Sorry, excuse me! A bit bouncy. Too chewy! Really springy! But like soft, bouncy. It’s not that overly salty kind Westerners like. Totally approve. Great seasoning too. Not powdery at all. Do I need to rush and get more? It’s unlimited! Until what time?
Some people board at 3—what do you think? So I can eat until 3? 4.
(Actually, it’s 3:30.) After lobster, gotta go for steak! Ooh, looks promising! Anyone here who hasn’t eaten yet? Come eat with us! Mmm~ So good. Salmon cup. That looks amazing. Yum~ This is so delicious. Mmm. Refill time! (Let’s keep exploring the buffet options.) (Let’s check out the best buffet in the entire Royal Caribbean fleet.) Wow, those legs are huge! Salad station. (If you’re feeling hungry now…) (You might as well order some food delivery.) (Or how about some Cajun-style seafood?) So cute! (This section is for gluten-free food.) They’ve got a stir-fry station. (Look at him go, cooking like a pro.) No lobster on my second plate. It’s not that they ran out, I just didn’t grab any. Shellfish. Hey, how do I peel this? It’s already cut. Look, flip it over. Oh. So… I got you, I got you. Oh no, it broke. Or maybe like this? Oh~ it sprayed on my face! Again, again! It already had some cracks, right? Yep. Hahaha! Oh man. Those crab claws are all yours! Oh wow. It’s huge! So satisfying. I’m telling you— Big bites! Even the end of the tail has meat in it. Let’s eat it. Mmm. It’s grilled. That savory flavor is still there. Warm and toasty. Mmm. I only had four today. Wow—only? Her four means eight halves. Eight lobster halves. What a shame—I thought I’d eat ten. Asian food! You can really feel the crowd thinning out. It’s 1PM now, so people can enter their cabins. I noticed the families with kids— They’re all just happily munching on fries. There’s some ice over there. It fell—there’s more on the floor. Wait—this area is awesome! It’s huge, hahaha. Look at all those pipes above! There are six water slides here. Record-breaking six slides! The most water slides at sea in the world. I’m telling you, they’re not stingy at all. They just keep refilling everything—grab as much as you want. So much food. And barely anyone’s here now. Look at that cart in the back— They’re restocking. So few people now. Just film freely. There’s still so much food. That roast beef leg—I didn’t even get to try it. That looks amazing. The restaurant has mirrored sections on both sides. So the crowds split up. It’s not too packed. Look at this. So good. Back to the lobster section again. It’s piled high! It’s getting a bit windy out here. Might wanna be careful. Haha, this is so over the top! This is insane. Totally crazy! beer, cold beer Oh no—everyone’s already chilling out! People are already lying down. Take a look over here. That’s the Norwegian Cruise Line terminal in the back. Hey, look behind that! There’s more over there! Let’s reapply sunscreen before we go. Look, the lounge chairs here are kind of soft and squishy. Come on, get up! Whoa, it’s huge! Hahaha! And it’s on both sides! This is just one side. The design of Icon is multi-layered. We’re on Deck 15, right? Deck 15 has both sides open. Deck 16 is only half. Same for Deck 17. Ohhh. There are woven bamboo lounge chairs here too. Are they free to use? Yeah. Let’s go check them out. I heard these…
They’re wet. People came before sunrise to claim them. Look out from here toward the terminal. (Who even understands that?) This is awesome! Hahaha! Let’s go! Now that I’m looking at this frame, I get what you mean—it’s not wide enough. Still not fully captured. You told me to hurry! The footage is gonna end up shaky! Okay.
No idea what you’re saying. Remember when we first came out? You asked me if that area was the buffet. I said no. But look, that little section is awesome too. Hey— There’s a taco joint up ahead. It’s free. Hey hey, come over here—
No, no! Let’s not go up yet, follow the order! There’s more upstairs. Alright, alright—let’s reapply sunscreen first. Okay. Remember when we just stepped out of the elevator? I told you we’d hit the buffet first. One, two, three, four, five—five stalls and all free! Wait—what did you say? Five different food stands. And also… Ahhh I really want a drink! Ughhh I’m so frustrated! Crepe shop. Wait wait wait. Just look, just look. Banana flavor, huh? I have to eat one. Haha, what did you just say? Wait, wait — what did you just say? Didn’t you say you were just gonna look? Hazelnut and bananas one. (Pile on that hazelnut spread.) Thank you, thank you. What are you doing? No no, I just can’t miss this. Can’t miss what? Can you cut my banana? Sure. I made it all messy. Took one bite—so good. Right? Totally. Come over here. Better lose 5 kg before coming here. Second stall, GNGR. Pineapple shrimp balls. Teriyaki snow peas. Fortune cookies. We’ll unbox this later. Third one—MAC’S mac & cheese. Also pretty sinful. So many flavors. Sausage. FETA Mediterranean cuisine. Pita bread. Toast & Garden — the toast corner. Watermelon salad looks good. Apple salad. Let’s go. Whoa. Smells amazing here. Hold on. My wide-angle lens isn’t wide enough. This is the water show stage. Let me tell you— I have a good friend here. Who’s your good friend? Seriously, my good friend. Haha. Don’t stop—we’re here to visit my good friend. MSC World America. Hahahaha! Hold up. There it is. Hold up—let’s take a selfie. We’ll unbox that one in the next episode. Or maybe the next next one. Let’s go—walk carefully. Told you to watch your step. Almost faceplanted. This is way over the top. Totally extra. Look, there’s even an aquarium behind us. That’s actually really cool. Super cool. People must think we’re screaming like crazy. So amazing. This is cooler than Eden. Way bigger than Eden, okay? Look how tall this is. This… oh my god. Feels like we’re in an arena. Come on, sit sit sit sit sit. So good. Look, people. I can get a clear shot of the ship’s bow here. Not bad at all. You can even capture Icon below. Seriously, seriously! Keep going, keep going. We’re not done yet. Feels like a mini stadium. Hurry up! They even put up a telescope here. OK OK. Wait a second. What kind of dreamland is this? Oh wow. This place is insanely cool. Oh man. This is awesome. Wait. This… Sorry, I’m already using a wide lens. Still not wide enough. This spot’s free. Kinda feels like VIP treatment, right? Private box, huh? Penthouse, penthouse! Well, we are in the loft area. I feel like once you’ve sailed on Icon, you don’t need anything else. There’s no going back. I’m telling everyone—don’t sail on Icon. It’s dangerous. Your money will disappear! So amazing. What Eden? Good thing all the Celebrity Cruise fans already tried it. They’ve been on the Ascent. It’s okay. Next level is right here. Look at this, it feels like a little bud. Yeah, like individual pods. And let me tell you— What’s most important for modern people? Internet, phones. You think sitting here does nothing? Charging ports—USB-C, USB-A. EU plug, US plug. Everything’s here. It’s all provided. Wait, what are we supposed to see here? Look inside. See anything? Yeah! It’s beautiful. (I mean World America) Oh, so that’s what this is for. People might think you’re weird. Look, look. It’s blurry. No good. They use fragrance here to divide up the space. I feel like every area has a different scent. This one too. Shall we go? Let’s go. So nice! Wow. Private room! Looks small from outside. But it’s actually really big. Feels like we’ve achieved something in life. Let’s book our afternoon meeting in Private Room 302. Is that a chocolate stick? Let’s take a look. Seafood restaurant—there’s seafood drawings on top. Looks amazing. hello welcome to icon of the seas, how are you? we already booked. take a look. yes thank you the best view in the house yeah sure Let’s check out the space. Its legs look like crab legs. The outside view is stunning. So many yachts! Tons of them. The restaurant’s actually pretty big. There’s more inside. Big tables. Seats 12. hooked A lot of people buy that necklace, you know? I remember it’s super expensive. Big crown. There’s no price tag on it. But I know many people buy it. Let’s head back to the room. Charge up a bit. My phone’s almost dead. Still not done filming—too excited! That’s crazy. Deck 9, Section I. I just realized there are 10 elevators here in total. And they’re arranged in a circle. So you don’t really notice it. (That’s wild) Look at this shot. Still haven’t captured the key part. Can I get that feeling in frame? It stretches so far. I tried to stretch it earlier and you got scared. Okay, okay—wait a sec. Where’s our room again? Sorry, first time on a fat ship. Usually cruise ships just have one long hallway. Split into even and odd numbers. Odd on one side, even on the other. But here there are two hallways. Mind blown. Room 572. See it there? We’re in the 600s, so further back. Oh—both odd and even numbers are on both sides. Look, our familiar suitcases. Why are there only two? One’s missing. And what’s this? Our room keys! Middle deck Send a dog to scout… Ooh~ this peels off nicely Pick one Wahaha Take a look Wow~ what is this? Wow So exciting Let’s check out our room So awesome Look You thought we booked a circle-view room? Nope We booked an inside cabin But what kind of inside cabin? This is a Central Park Inside View I paid extra to upgrade this How much extra? Seventy (USD) It’s still an inside cabin Can it be opened? Nope~ it’s an inside room And it can’t be called an ocean view Why not? Because our view faces the park (Mom~ I’m here) Pretty cool, right? But it’s a lot bigger than regular inside cabins Look, there’s even a sofa area You’re no longer a little buddy You’re a big buddy now Medium buddy Alrighty Quick room tour! Welcome in!

Ugh~ I hit my head… on this thing A signature feature of Royal Caribbean ships is— They only give you one bottle (of body wash) Use it for shampoo, face wash, body wash, butt, toes — everything So I recommend to all Royal Caribbean cruisers— If needed, bring your own conditioner And here’s another thing you’ll notice— There’s no clothesline Hold on— Let me finish this B-roll shot first This is what I bumped into earlier There’s a grab bar inside here Another feature of Royal Caribbean ships— All the beds have this rounded shape Cute and cozy Let me test how soft it is (Professional testing) Don’t move around Let’s go Comfy Look, there’s a reading light on each side And USB ports too Techy That’s it Hey there’s a little cushion over there That’s for sitting here and you know… Hehe Hehe what?

In case some folks don’t know— Don’t you think the bed is kinda high? Under the bed is for storing your luggage Ah~ it fits right in! Perfect You can fit four of them! Awesome! While lying down and resting, this person said we could already start disembarkation. Then asked if I needed luggage assistance. If I wanted them to check the bags. But I don’t have a flight. I’m still playing! If you want luggage help, you can’t disembark at 6:30. Obviously, the longer you stay on the ship, the better. 9 a.m. it is. Hurry and book it. Submit. Done. The longer you stay, the more worth it. Hahaha. No need to rush out. We can take our time with breakfast. Little tips for you all. Ready to book the next cruise? (So jealous~ you guys) This is a special offer. Future cruise. Just prepay $200. If you choose within two months, you can save up to $500. Oh~ that’s quite a lot.
(Only suites save that much) All the ship’s activities are listed here. Let’s go. Let’s check out the spa first. Been walking forever. Finally made it out. We were only mid-ship. Now we’re at the front. Oh—really? Hello am i right? yeah it’s okay would you like a SPA tour yes yes of course i’m gonna give it to Yasheka she is great…… beautiful SPA hahaha ＃＄％＾＆＊ okay welcome to our salon hello Fat-melting treatment So cool.

Yep. It’s like a bunch of massage rooms. we do couples massage oh couple room so you can do together in the same room oh this bowl can i touch this? yeah sure so yeah. it’s warm So cool. this is really good for you He just gave me a special discount too. There’s also a special Vitality Café inside. They introduced quite a lot. And it feels like there’s some mysterious stuff too. But one person refused to be filmed. He said no filming. So there were a few parts I didn’t record. I figured it’s fine. Just saying that the setup here is kind of strange compared to other places. He looked really serious. You have one person leading the tour, and another one taking you inside. Everyone’s ready. One by one. Yeah, and each one gave a very professional intro. It’s different. The whole setup is very complete. We’re on deck 15 now. Time to stroll around again. Do you know what this means? It means we have internet! (We’re close to land) There’s a ping pong area here. I noticed the elevator changes the date every day. For people like us who boarded at 10-something, it’s already 3:30 PM, feels like we squeezed in another meal. We’re definitely not holding back. Refilled! Found this chocolate. (Buffet closed for break, please dine elsewhere) Come back at 5:30 to see what’s good. El Loco Fresh
(Mexican food) So many people, totally packed. Quesadillas. So convenient — served in cups. Nachos. There’s more! If it’s not enough inside, you can eat outside too. They’ve got onions and lime here. And here too.
It’s better for filming here. Guacamole. Take whatever you want. Happy time! The pool’s getting more crowded. Look at all the people in the pool. And the lounge chairs. So packed. I want to sit in there too. You can’t, you’re still working. Finish the tour first. Next time then. Even the stairs are colorful. Storm warning! Let’s go. Thrill Island. Wow! So many tubes! Super cool! I hear someone screaming. (Time to sneak in a fake side-angle shot) Thank you! Wow. Wait—look at that! So cool! My wide-angle lens isn’t wide enough… annoying! That’s intense. This waterslide looks way too complicated. I don’t even know how to film this. There are three slides here. Check what time they open in the morning. You go report first. Look at that water — it’s so shallow. This setup is so cute! It’s a shipwreck. Is that a kid’s area over there? Nope. That’s another waterslide. Six total. We only went up three earlier. Let’s check it out. Wow. There’s more over there? Yep! This place is really complex. Look, there’s even bodyboarding! (It really is a full-on water park.) (Just looking at all these tubes gets me excited!) Wow~ this place is so cool. You can go down from there first, then come over here. Look, there’s another mini golf over there. It has several zones. There are 9 holes. That’s a lot. A rusty submarine. We should probably find the golf clubs first. Grab one. One per person. Get a ball too. Okay okay. The hole is right there. But I don’t want to. I’m aiming for the treasure chest. Hahaha. This guy’s cheating, go again. It’s supposed to be stroke play. (Even cheating isn’t allowed…) Eh~~~~ Next one. Hole 2, par 4. Par 4 to get in. I can do it in 2. You sure? (Hole-in-one) (The ship must’ve rocked a little just now.) The point is— This whole area is here for you to take your time and enjoy. That’s a huge hot tub. Adults only. I feel like you’re being distracted by what’s above. Someone just fell earlier. Ah~ I know this one’s thrilling. Wanna go? Look at the infinity pool in the middle. Wahahaha. I feel a bit lost about what to do here. It’s too complex. How do I even film this? Just enjoy it! (This oval building is the Norwegian Cruise terminal.) I found a spot— You can clearly see the slides. Oh, someone just dropped down. There’s food over here too. Butterfly rings, potato balls, hot dogs. That fried chicken looks pretty good. Why do the burgers look extra delicious? Because the meat is thick! Where are we now? Heading upstairs again. Milkshake bar. A $17 milkshake. Let’s take a look. Wow, that cup is so extra. There’s so much stuff stuck on top. This is basically… Wait wait, what is this? All sugar. That one was $18. With tip, that’s $20. One milkshake costs NT$600. Actually, NT$660. Alrighty then. There’s something going on in the middle. That thing is spinning. Oh yeah! A helicopter. Eh? These little cabanas—hundreds of dollars per day. Today’s the cheaper rate. Tomorrow, sea day—sky-high price. How much? Over NT$10,000. That’s for just one day. Rich people’s world. Every angle here is just breathtaking. I’m still trying to process it all. And you said this walkway is open to the outside? Yeah, but it’s a paid area. Let’s take another look. (Once again, welcome aboard the pirate ship!) This is the sail away party. (People haven’t gathered yet.) These are all the fancy cabanas. You have to pay a lot to get into those. (You~~~ didn’t wash your face.) Look! So cute! Look what’s inside? There’s a table. There’s a bar inside. (You~~~ didn’t wash anything.) Oh my god. Wow. (You~~~ still haven’t washed.) That’s awesome. So many people. Bye bye. See you next week. That’s a big one. Bye bye. Did we finish walking through? There’s still the upper deck. Yeah. So busy. Deck 17, Cloud 17. (no no no no no no no) (Let’s admire this jaw-dropping view together.) (Rap’s too fast, don’t even think about asking for lyrics.) Hold on a sec. More towels over here. Different ones. The biggest funnel. The sail away party was across from us earlier. Now tons of people are dancing. Let’s keep going. The circle pools are pretty spread out. These circle loungers should be free, right? Yeah, they’re free. Let’s take a look. Looks pretty good. Nice spot for sunbathing. Even though it seems really crowded, almost nowhere is actually packed. Some people watching this might think— Eh, doesn’t look crowded. But there are actually tons of people. Because I think some people need this. There’s a smoking area here. We finally finished exploring the top deck. Time to head down. Going down. (Oh my gosh~ Jesus, Guanyin, Buddha, please bless me.) I didn’t know you could go down here. It’s a short stretch but super intense. We realized we missed one more thing. He got swept away. This one’s free, right? This one’s free, right? Free to use. Just line up to play. He gets to go again. So happy. No one bought the paid loungers today.
(Probably because it’s embarkation day.) This spot’s really trendy. It’s transparent. How much is it? (Sea day: $519.99 USD) No ships behind us anymore. Winter’s the busiest. Hey, I bought drinks too, okay? I got 6 bottles. Whoa~ that’s pretty good. Not cheap either. Is it good? It’s like a slightly alcoholic sparkling water. Strawberry flavor. If you just want to drink a little bit, and enjoy the vibe and atmosphere, just buy it. This one’s enough. It even comes with a bag. You can reuse that bag later. That bag is actually super pricey. I’ll take you to the shop and show you. basecamp Butterfly fries, tots, hot dogs, chicken fingers, burgers chicken finger okay maybe some totes hahaha You can just tell them whatever you want. thank you thank you bye bye Looks like it’s nicely fried. Seems like the boneless kind. chicken finger Mmm Is it good? Yeah. These fries are super good, try them! Just look at that crispy golden surface. It’s like 80% crunchy shell. Almost no filling inside. If you’re into crunchiness, I’d give it a solid 7.84. So dramatic. No one’s playing, they’re just climbing. Here they come. Hey hi~ It’s getting more crowded over there. Totally packed now. (So dizzy, so dizzy, so dizzy) (Getting dizzy, getting dizzy) This angle really shows it. Look, it’s packed over here. So many helicopters! It’s starting! They’re sailing away. They’re leaving first. Let’s go across. Yo~ it’s moving, it’s moving! oh my god Wahaha Ohh! It’s gonna pass right by us. It actually looks really cool from this angle. Let’s take a look. Wow. Oh dang. Wow. It’s huge! A totally different view from here. Check that out. I see tiny people over there! And people at the bow too. So awesome. Absolutely stunning. The two biggest ships right here!
oh my god oh my god It’s moving so slowly. Such a tight space in here. Let’s go. Can’t even fit on the screen. Too fat, just too fat. Incredible. oh my god Feels like there aren’t many people. What? Look closely—
Yeah, up top. Yep yep yep. They’re up there. Wow~ this angle is amazing! So epic. Super close. Hurry, get up here! There’s even a plane above. Everyone’s having such a great time. Now we’re back at the aft of the ship. This April, in Miami— We’ll be in Miami the whole month. Yay. And May too. Water police, wow Police boat Hahaha, a police boat I specifically came back here to film the ship’s stern But then— Saw… oh! We’ve started moving What now? We can’t see her anymore Yeah… She’s over here Hurry up… I was waiting for you! She’s taking forever to turn Whoa~ it’s really wide Super wide Someone’s blowing bubbles Alright Save power, good OK OK Bye bye Miami There are so many cars on that ship! Feeling so happy I think this scenery is just too special Gotta record more of it So many city buildings Coast guard (The cruise departure view from Miami is just stunning) (Come enjoy it with me) I said people ride bikes here See—someone actually biked here to watch the sail away (This is South Beach, Miami) It’s actually almost 7PM now The background looks amazing from here So beautiful Look behind me It’s gorgeous But I mean… Everyone’s still partying hard But we have a show at 7:15 And it’s already 7 o’clock Gotta run back and change Go go go Remember when we first got to our room There was a schedule for the shows? And the staff even told us Don’t miss the show It’s really awesome, don’t miss out So I asked: one, two, three, four, five— Five shows and one party How… how do you not miss anything? You tell me. how? Haha~ That’s way too hard You’re bound to miss some
Five shows in one day And that’s just the evening events! How could you not miss anything? And I didn’t even finish filming the beach just now They just don’t want you doing the same thing twice Ugh—should we book the next one already? Hahaha
（There goes our money） So hectic Let me give everyone a reminder— Don’t fly in and board the cruise right away You’ll be jetlagged At this hour you’ll be dozing off Totally wiped I recommend stopping by Margaritaville first
(See our last video for details) Hahaha To take a nap upstairs? Nope~ I’m telling you, it’s actually pretty fun Yeah But the fun’s all relative Hahaha Honestly, don’t take Icon too lightly Once you’ve sailed on Icon… You’ll be like: what is this other ship? And the slippers we’re wearing have turned into sandals With socks inside QBao says we came here for vacation, Not for work So everyone’s really chill daijobu（大丈夫） So busy, so busy This is Deck 4 He didn’t even check us and just let us in We’re too late Because with this reservation you can come early Right now we might not even get seats So many people Perfect timing (This special guest performance… I’d rather be watching the ocean) (Please be sure to subscribe, like, and share!) (Or I’ll whack you lol) Let’s go—we’re heading to the buffet now. Look at the middle part. Whoa. Central Park! It’s gorgeous. It looks stunning at this time of day. There’s lighting, but it’s not completely dark. What do we do? It’s already 8 PM—did you know that? So awesome. Let me say this— You can actually see into other people’s rooms from here. That’s wild. Central Park view balconies. Now I get it. Perfect for extroverts. Hi~~~ Hello! Look, there’s a clock over there. Yeah. Hi! He’s taking pictures. Check this out. So nice. My camera’s capturing this perfectly. And there are so few people upstairs right now. There’s still a bit of sunset too? So beautiful. Oh—the bar up there. Yeah. I kinda want to go up there. There he goes, getting dragged away again. There are still people swimming. Wait, wait— This isn’t high enough. (This night view is too stunning—you’re all forced to admire it.) (Big pool’s closed up.) (Central Park at sunset is so romantic.) Clocking out. Can’t slide anymore. So there’s an operating schedule for it too? This angle is amazing. Move over. The atmosphere here is just perfect. What can you see from here? Nothing—just think it’s lovely. This time of day is just beautiful. Totally. You’re making it impossible to stop filming. We’re supposed to film the buffet now! It’s too pretty—gotta capture more. Haha—yawning now. This is the Meyer Turku shipyard. Turku, Finland. 2023. Just realized the roof is shaped like leaves. This area is Thrill Island. There are just too many free food options. It’s impossible to try them all. I just want the buffet. Windjammer. Eh—only half open for dinner? (Still watching this video? Haven’t taken a break yet?) (Then how about ordering NT$200 worth of popcorn chicken?) This side looks way too tempting. Steak galore. Today’s burger, barbecue, pulled pork too. Looks kinda like the chicken fingers upstairs. Chicken fingers. Wow, haha! Steak—grilled steak! And Buffalo wings! BBQ. (The buffet on Icon has tons of choices.) (All this meat is just the basics.) Ribs.
(The shot doesn’t match what I’m seeing…) (Roasted ribeye.) Wow. Thank you. Wow—the color looks amazing. Looks incredible. Gravy. (All kinds of fruit to choose from.) (These are salad toppings.) (Cold dishes and hot food.) (I’ve never even gone near the bread section.) Potatoes. All I can say is—the food’s way too good. I haven’t even finished filming. Still tons more. Flatbread. (This is tomato soup.) Lobster bisque. Made from lobster shells. And there’s lobster meat too. Can I have tomato soup with lobster meat? Custom-made! Weren’t we just going to take a look? What’s on your plate? All of Royal Caribbean’s top food is on Icon. Aren’t you gonna try the Buffalo wings? Buffalo Wings Is it good? Really sour and spicy. This is my custom lobster tomato soup. Try it with me. Mmm. Aside from the lobster, the tomato flavor is actually really rich. The tomato ratio is really high. It’s pretty tasty. Stealing yours. Ohh Sour and spicy! So satisfying. Ribs. Let’s dig in. Free dining at the Windjammer buffet. You got the smallest piece! Tastes pretty good. I’d give it an 8.42. You gotta have Prime Rib when you’re in the US. Look how dark the surface is. That’s exactly how my grandma barbecued. Dig in! Not bad. Tender and soft. The sauce tastes pretty authentic. Corn dog. Thin batter, lots of meat. (So many desserts here, but I still need to go to the main dining room.) (Any dessert lovers out there?) That strawberry’s huge! Look at the size compared to my hand. Now we’re at the main dining room. It’s super crowded. Let’s check today’s menu. Chef’s recommendations: crab cake and Southern fried chicken. Wow. thank you thank you First thing after sitting down— the utensils are super complete. Feels like Titanic-style. Haha Look how many utensils we’ve got. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 — that’s a lot. Work from the outside in, small to large. hello i’m good Melwin Yes Sir nice to meet you nice to meet you cheese roll, sunflower seed, and French baguette thank you Let’s give it a try. Smells great, tastes great. Mmm. No need for butter at all. I just took a look at the butter— looks pretty decent too. When we came in, I noticed— the servers here are pretty smart. They catch every little detail right away. When I was picking up bread, I wondered what it was. He just said: “Oh—cheese roll.” Smart guy. They’re sharper than the usual crew. OK, let’s start with yours. Mine is escargots—snails. Let’s dig in. It’s really shallow. Garlicky snails swimming in butter. Delicious. Hot! Not bad at all. QBao Travel – Free Dining Diary Main dining room – baked escargots. 7.82 out of 10. This soup is super rich. It kinda reminds me of the tomato bisque at MSC’s specialty restaurants. Yeah, those creamy tomato soups. Right. But this one doesn’t have that swirl of white creamy sauce on top. Still, it tastes pretty good. Wow. Crab cake. Looks really tasty. Nice and fluffy. Gotta dip it in the sauce. Mmm. Crispy and delicious. Look at the filling. So much real crab meat. Is the crab ratio high? Yeah, really generous with the crab. That’s some premium stuff. Yeah, fried chicken! Thank you, thank you. Smells amazing—so fragrant! Oops. Butter! Hope this works. (So hungry.) This needs no explanation. Come over here. Check this out. Let’s try the Southern fried chicken. We’re in the South, after all. The corn—super authentic. How should you eat Southern fried chicken? With your hands, of course. Those utensils? Useless. Dig in! It’s fried chicken. What else is there to say? How does it compare to others? I’ve never had fried chicken in the US. No idea. How about compared to Taiwan? This one’s tougher. The outside is harder. What about the inside? Of course, they gave me the best part—chicken breast. What are you talking about? Chicken breast is more expensive than thighs. They gave me the best cut. And you love chicken breast too. Hahaha. Wait, wait—don’t end it yet! How do you enjoy the dinner so far? Do you enjoy the food? I like it! Yeah, how do you enjoy the steak? Thank you, thank you. He keeps checking in on us. He just said if you have any concerns about your food… He’ll take care of it. Basically, he’ll swap it for you. He really cares about the guests. The corn is hot. So hot! I saw it yesterday and already wanted to eat it. Oh~ the corn is good! This guy must be crazy. Skipping amazing steak for fried chicken? And chicken breast no less? What a waste… Such a waste of money. Do you know what this is? Nope. Honey like me. Spicy honey. Sweet and spicy, not bad. Hold on— It’s got layers of flavor. It starts sweet, then turns spicy. So the key is really in the sauce. Turns out that’s the highlight. The fried chicken is just a vessel. The real goal is this sauce. Classic Key Lime Pie. Is it sour? Cheesecake. Mine tastes pretty average. It’s around 11:30 PM now. I’m telling you, their events start way too late. Just watch. (Everyone has to push through until midnight on the first day…) (Party lovers~ party lovers~) (Paaaarty! Let’s play with mudfish~) (We’re burning our cosmos now!) (Already sold a kidney… at a loss…) (And you’re not even buying anything anymore) It’s starting. It’s 11:59 now. Midnight countdown! Hey everyone, here we go! Boys and girls, welcome aboard! Let’s countdown! Ten, nine… Three, two, one! Ahhh! We’re too far back. So sad… Pop it! Got a balloon. Bye bye now. Set it free. Bye bye. Central Park. Oh, it’s nighttime. You can hear toads.
(Cicadas, not toads! Your whole family are toads!) Did you notice our room? It’s a Central Park view cabin. Let me tell you, ours is an inside cabin. Yeah. But we still have a view. What kind of view? And honestly, there are a lot of extroverts, you know? A lot of people don’t close their curtains. Oh, really?
Did you notice? Extroverts? Exactly. It’s late and super quiet now. (Have some milk tea to calm the nerves.) So cool. Oh—it’s out. It won’t give me any. Oh wait, it works! This café back here is open 24 hours. They have snacks and coffee. And drinks and water right beside it. A whale! (This is the Dueling Pianos Bar.) (It’s always super popular every night.) Goodnight. Someone even went up to tip them. That’s my neighbor. I found something interesting here. It’s a fortune teller! ZOLTAR! You swipe your room card. It’s $2.90. Or $2.50. I think his eyes are a little messed up. Let’s go. Look at this staircase! good morning everyone hi It’s now 8:51 in the morning. How do I know where I can have breakfast today? Open the Royal app. Tap on “Dining.” It’ll show you which restaurants are open now. You can also go to “Royal Entertainment” on the TV. It’ll show you all the important info for the day. Like what times… And what highlights there are. If you don’t mind listening to some corny jokes, just turn on that TV show—they keep coming. Housekeeping is only once a day. They’ll stop by and ask what time works for you. Staying above Central Park, of course we need to take a morning stroll here. Oops, guess everyone knows where our room is now. Front row seats to the park, baby! Wait, no— Let me share something cool. There’s another fun thing on Royal Caribbean— Duck hunting! So keep your eyes peeled as you walk around. It’s a sea day today—lots of people hide ducks. We brought some too. But we haven’t prepped them yet. Didn’t catch it on camera. The bird sounds are from real birds flying here. Wait a sec— I thought they were fake. Watch closely, you’ll see real birds flying. Park Café is a free restaurant too. We actually got a really good deal on the Royal Caribbean coffee card. It rarely goes on sale— Only during Black Friday or right before the sailing during special periods. That’s the one I saw just now. What are you catching? Time to eat melon in the morning. (You can get breakfast here too.) There’s bagels on the side. You can build your own bagel sandwich. Even trash bins. It really feels like a park. Morning dance warm-up too. (I still don’t get why people love filming this.) (Pearl Café always has something to eat.) This sea view is amazing. Huge windows. The food looks really tempting too. We might switch and eat here instead. What now? It’s such a tough choice. We were gonna go to the main dining room. Since it’s a sea day, they want to spread the crowd out. Last night at dinner, they told us— One restaurant is open from 7 to 11. Another from 8 to 12. So basically, you can eat till noon. it’s my first time i buy the Just ask at the counter. Confirm your stateroom number, and you’ll get the coffee card you purchased. Yep. Why do I have 15 drinks? 15 points. A small standard cup only costs 1 point. A large one is 2 points. But we’re only on here for 7 days— Can I really drink that much? There’s no expiration. You can use it on any Royal Caribbean ship. Ah! So if you can, buy it! If you don’t finish it, use it next time. So worth it. Discounts, discounts, discounts! Check out the view outside. Oh—better put on sunscreen. Yay. Hey. Is this related to Starbucks? Nope—but holding it like this looks pro. Mmm. Tastes good—you’ll like it. Got a mocha today. Has chocolate in it. （怎麼莫名其妙跳起來了） Let me add something. There’s a Starbucks on the ship. But Starbucks isn’t included. None of the drink packages cover Starbucks. We’re now on Deck 3. Never been to this area before. Lots of people. It’s 9:14 now. Let’s see how long we’ll wait? There’s a menu at the entrance. We’re still waiting in line. You can grab some coffee here. Corner buddy. morning Lots of choices for breakfast. They’ve got steak and fries. Since I’m already at the restaurant, shouldn’t I get a steak? I bet everyone’s curious— what’s it like to have steak for breakfast? Decision made. Hey this man have breakfast here, my best friend so wowow say subscribe, subscribe the channel don’t forget you subscribe channel you should create a channel you should you should QBao you write it down here this guy is very famous guy say thank you in Taiwan say thank you in Taiwan 謝謝 xie xie oh, is like a Chinese yes yes like Chinese yeah nice to meet you you have a good day It’s my first time seeing a cast iron teapot. Oh—it’s hot! Hold it by the back. Cast iron is super durable. This thing’s indestructible. American stuff just doesn’t break. This was passed down from my grandma. Milk—cold milk. You can tell how cold it is just by looking. Tea with 300 years of tradition. They have black too. apple juice thank you thank you Cheers! it is for sharing right? yeah thank you Super healthy. Here’s my iceberg salad. Listen carefully— Super crunchy. Add a little bacon. Pretty tasty. thank you I ordered the eggs Benedict. Let me tell you, when it’s served, the plate is so hot you can’t even hold it. It comes with ham underneath. Oh my god. Eggs Benedict. Mmm. So rich and creamy. I just had a bite— yours tastes amazing! Yours is here. Wahaha! A classic American breakfast. Look at those perfect grill marks. I ordered it medium. Looks pretty good. And garlic chips. Mmm. Feels a bit luxurious. Cooked just right. Yours is really good too. Super tasty, okay? From an Asian point of view, comparing value— you lost again! Last night I had steak, what did you have? Fried chicken. Today I had steak, and you? Eggs. Hahaha! I think yours is even better than dinner’s. Because there are fewer people ordering in the morning. Feels more specially made. Absolutely flawless. Have a bite! Ahh! Isn’t it great? So good. Steak’s done. Now I’m just starting on the fries. They’re truffle fries! It’s pure luxury. Okay, it’s 11 o’clock now. We’ve changed into swimwear. Reapplied sunscreen. Time to go all out today! Happy happy happy! This guy came prepared. Look at his waterproof tactical bag. Going up. The most beautiful views are here. Sunday. I’m so excited! So excited! Wahaha! Look at that line. Which one should we start with? I’m good with anything. Go! Morning! Do you need some towels? Yes, we do! How about starting with surfing? Sure, but surfing is solo! All set. The safety instructions are very thorough. You can switch languages too. There’s a video you can watch. Simple and clear. Keep your keycard in a zipped pocket. The water looks massive! This guy’s in line. I’ll go check out the view. Waited forever. You should’ve lined up with me! Finally your turn! Hey, how are you? I’m doing good! (The instructor was super professional. It was my first time on a surf simulator.) (He teaches you the easiest way to start.) (Is this the new Superman movie?) (First time trying to kneel, not sure I placed my knees right.) (Was planning to wipe out anyway.) Round two. (Does anyone know what I’m even doing?) Having fun?
開心嗎？ Super fun! Just a bit crowded. (Aww, it’s a QBao buddy!) (He misjudged the depth and fell right in.) I didn’t realize it was that high! I wasn’t even sitting—just slid in. (Is this a sea salt ad?) Don’t forget to return your towel. And swipe your card too. Time to eat! So good. Feeling so happy! Look at this guy—the bar next to him is packed. The towel animals here are different again. (He clearly loves water slides himself.) So hot! It’s burning! Get up quick! Want some tacos? Let’s check out the buffet. I just saw the biggest strawberry ever. It was the size of a fist! Sea day lunches are usually extra good. (Your sunglasses are blocking the view.) (Daily routine: buffet exploration time.) (I still look forward to sea days.) Buffalo burger. Chicken fingers—of course. Steak again! (New York strip—classic choice.) That pork chop looks… The queen has arrived. Roast chicken. (Grapes and strawberries, take as much as you want.) Got a window seat today. Let’s eat. Everyone’s so chill on sea days. People are more spread out. Let’s try this huge pork chop. Feels decent when cutting. Let’s eat. The sauce smells great. 8.152 out of 10. (American-style pasta.) Beef soup. (Maybe it’s time to give your eyes a break?) (Time for some eyedrop sponsorship maybe?) Freshly cooked pasta. (Coming to the stir-fry station is QBao’s daily fun.) OK. thank you Made-to-order pasta. Most of the toppings are vegetarian. But I feel like they only stir-fried it for two seconds. Hmm. Your T-shirt looks great! Where did you get it? Yummy. The pasta’s still a bit al dente. What’s next? The world-famous butter chicken. Indian food—creamy butter chicken. Shrimp fried noodles. Whoa, those shrimp are huge! Tastes like Panda Express. Chewy, fragrant, spicy. Gigantic strawberry. Look at my fingers for scale. Super sour! So sour! The cantaloupe is crazy sweet. But the strawberry is super sour. Looks great but not worth it. My energy’s dropping. Only had two plates before calling it. There’s just too much food on this ship. You can grab something to eat anytime, anywhere. And it’s all free. No need to worry. You don’t have to head upstairs to the buffet. Hahahahaha Wait—what is this? That’s way too cute! Hold up, look… He’s biting his fingers, you know? Hahahaha How can something be this cute? No wonder Royal Caribbean stock is so high. Seriously, don’t try it lightly. Or you might just fall in love with it. It’s now 2:44. We booked the 3 PM show. We’re running a bit late. Hurry up! They let you in 45 minutes early. Today’s show is The Wizard of Oz. The performance lasts 100 minutes. Whoa, that long? It’s a full musical. So make sure to bring a drink. That guy even brought his own booze. It’s super crowded. cheers Coffee with booze? Feels like you’re all grown up. wheel smaller than the other she tried to kill it Oh, where were we oh uh a police officer oh my god oh my god She flew out! Oh my god! (Too many clips… translator on strike.) and blow some more it’s the last song She’s so close!
她好近喔 Just watched a 100-minute musical. Absolutely amazing. And it was all live music! It felt so real and incredible. Live music, really! On both sides of the stage. Some scenes literally flew out. Right over your head! Yeah—and it even snowed mid-show! The audience got to join in too. Definitely worth reserving a seat. On all the cruises I’ve been on, none had a full musical like this one. Totally worth it. It’s so crowded now. The show’s over, time to leave. Why are you heading into the pizza place? Sorrento’s Pizza. It’s like an American fast food setup. Look, all the crusts are prepped. They just semi-assemble them on the spot. But honestly— it’s still pretty tasty. Yeah, not bad at all. Tastes pretty good actually. How would Italians feel about this? “You pre-made the dough?!” Hahaha classic thank you I just realized—live music again! Even some department stores aren’t this big. It’s ridiculously huge. Each floor has its own unique decor. That’s a must! Every level features a different pattern. Okay, it’s around 7 PM now. Just wandering around. We’ve got about an hour and a half until dinner. There are a lot of setups like this. Where is this person going? To the aft of the ship—so pretty! Silent disco. Whoa. Looks like so much fun. Thinking of sliding down? Don’t you dare—if your pants get dirty, I’ll smack you. Here you go. Thank you. (I’m so glad I don’t need to subtitle this part.) (They’re not saying anything anyway.) The DJ’s over here. (That’s not me—it’s a random dad calling his daughters.) Are you guys ready? (This carousel is super cute.) (It has an even more cartoony look.) So beautiful. (Two silly people.) Whoa. (The 360 cam is back again.) Oh! That’s just too cute. I really want one. Go go! Non-alcoholic drinks. $7 on top, $5 on the bottom. (Fruit skewers.) Popcorn chicken, hot dogs, cheeseburgers. Vanilla, chocolate. He can’t hear—chocolate! Thank you. Welcome. (One of QBao’s joys: collecting towel animals.) (Going in for a look.) Oh! Wow, this is awesome. (Surfside Eatery is a mini buffet in the kids’ zone.) (Not a huge selection, but definitely enough to eat.) (Snacks like pizza are adjusted for kids.) It’s weird ‘cause we’re the only ones listening to music. A little silent disco share. It might seem quiet to others. But I’m super hyped. That restaurant was amazing. So many options. Honestly, you can eat anywhere. And then you’re just like… (What?) You can’t resist grabbing something. Let me ask you— There were so many people just now. Where did you go? The ice skating rink. Absolute Zero. To watch a show. We didn’t see that one. But we’ve already made reservations for later. So it’s all good. There are a lot of big shows like that. Just follow the schedule to plan them out. That way not everyone’s crowding the same place. Now we’re at Central Park. (Mom—I made it on QBao Travel!) There are lots of specialty restaurants in Central Park. People here tend to dress more formally than us. Just a bit more dressed up. And look, they even have live music here. The vibe is amazing. Hey, everyone’s taking pictures along this path. Seems like people are a bit more dressed up today. That ring over there—super cool. There’s a pizza place below. Walking along this path is really chill too. It’s a totally different vibe. I wanna talk about this spot. There’s a really, really special elevator here. Located on both sides at the front of the ship. You have to find A, B, C, D, E. Because it doesn’t always appear. You’ll see what I mean in a sec. And this guy’s wondering, how do you even make this elevator show up? There it goes. B… oh no… it’s going up. How did you find it? Just listened for the sound. Take the stairs down first. Oh. So many people in line. I’m super excited too. Don’t make it too staged though. Elevator’s here! He left. (LOL) What were the people up front doing? This is hard—so scary! He’s still running in circles. Yeah. Oh my god! That’s amazing. There are a ton of events downstairs today. Hard to keep track. But the easiest thing is still checking the buffet. Same pasta available daily. Cold cuts. Burgers. French onion burger. (They offer a different burger flavor every day on Icon.) (Steak and shrimp are basically a staple here.) The sauce looks great. Chimichurri. Is that for the shrimp? Not sure. (Didn’t get a chance to try any of the desserts.) (Crêpes.) (It’s making me hungry just looking at it.) (Can someone shut this guy up?) (Anyone here been on Royal Caribbean before?) (What do you think about the food onboard?) (That last bit of filet mignon.) That’s actually pretty cool. (Grilled salmon shows up like 87% of the time.) (Just a small plate to start.) (Then continue walking around.) (These chilled appetizers rotate a little too.) (Just glance at the salad, no big deal.) Ooh, apple pie! (They brought out a whole new slab of filet.) That looks amazing. Totally wanna try it. (Indian food’s really popular too.) (Especially among Indian guests.) Okay, we’re all set. Let’s eat. Our best outfit is still our T-shirt. So yeah, we’re sticking with this. Time to eat. busy day welcome back oh thank you So thoughtful. thank you this is nice the nice day The menu is extra cute today. Why’s that? Because tonight is “Dress Your Best” night. Look what it says on top. “Eat like an Icon.” Hahaha. So basically, go all out. cheers There are two kinds of bread. Same as yesterday. Mini baguette and cheese roll. For the appetizer, classic Italian seafood—Calamari. Tasty. Not bad. Filet mignon. The plate’s really hot! Wow. Happy! Thank you. Oh no~ it still has the tail on. Okay. Yeah. thank you Pretty professional. And the service is great. Yeah. But you know, we’ve sailed with Celebrity Cruises before… The difference is—this one’s missing the butter. Clarified butter. Oh this looks familiar. We grabbed a couple slices upstairs earlier… Just to ease the hunger a bit. Mmm. Same as before? 9 out of 10. Hahaha. Let me try the shrimp. Feels like they shrunk though. Still good quality. Still has some bounce. But the ones on day one were better. Yeah. Sorry to say— Lobster? Celebrity Cruises still wins. Note: Millennium class. (He ordered the crème brûlée.) (Apple crumble.) When does she appear? She lives in the bridge—where the captain stays. She comes out only when she wants to. So she doesn’t just wander around daily. (Bii-a~ bii-a-na~) You really have to love shows to be in here. The stage is right in the center. And it’s surrounded by the audience. Feels like a mini concert setup. Probably even more people than a live band gig. Seriously. Everyone’s super into it and enthusiastic. This is the extrovert zone. Wait—I spotted him here. Do you know who he is? He’s the president of Royal Caribbean. Why is he here? He’s doing construction. He actually does construction? Nah. Just for the image. I haven’t been to the gym since boarding. Let’s check it out. It’s outdoors? Just bend around this way. This ship has a running track. Look how wide it already is inside. But actually outside… …it’s blocked by lifeboats. The ship is even wider than it looks from inside. Track signage. From the back, it looks super deep. I zoomed in 5x, it’s so far. Even the lifeboats look unusually wide. 450 people. Even the corridor is so colorful. Fitness center. Someone’s working out. So spacious. It’s huge. Even the scent here is something different. And lots of free weights too. Look, there’s even an upstairs area. And lockers. Wait till you see this… Towel station. Why are they here? All sorts of animals. We just came from over there. I know this machine well. I can handle this equipment. Spinning studio. Looks so pro. Even more pro than WorldGym. That’s a crazy number of bikes. That’s normal. Group classes. Do they ever get full? Group classes cost extra. This space is really big. It’s so wide here. Big ships really are different. This area must be… Oh oh… We’re at the Deck 6 entrance. We’re out. The place we sang earlier. Piano bar. I’m in the room now. Getting our duck army ready. This one’s going into the bushes, I already decided. All black. Then we have Boss Duck and Scarface. Look, it even has a gun! And here’s Music Duck. I drew this one at home. A bit ugly, but that’s how it is. Copied our T-shirt design onto it too. This one… oops. Put on the glasses. The sun’s bright. One’s swimming. Where should we hide the ducks first? Central Park. Got any ideas? Look for places people won’t really notice. How about this one? Looking like that… At night, lots of duck hiders are out. Some are duck hunting. Should we go even higher? Haha. Kids probably can’t reach that high. We’ll check later. Strolling around. We’ll hide more as we explore. It’s still there. Stop staring at it! What are you looking at? I looked through the telescope… …and saw someone drinking coffee. Their face was right there, super close. These ship telescopes— —they’re not for looking outside. I use them to look *into* the ship. Totally spying. Hahaha. And you know what… Who would think someone’s spying here? Right? You’re just sitting in the café downstairs… …and through the glass, someone could be watching. You might be eating. Hey! The one eating chicken—stop giggling! Alright, decided. Contestant No.2. Looks like this. I’m telling you, best way to hide— —is in plain sight. Looks good, right? What can you see through this telescope? It only looks into this central area. The angle is limited. So it can’t point up? You can move it up, but only along this gap here. The left and right movement is limited. It’s clearly designed that way. But you can clearly see the carousel. And also the Royal Caribbean logo in the back. Found this spot outside the entrance. Should we put it in his hand? Or behind his hair? Can it fit in his pocket? Too stiff. Nope—this duck’s too big. Alright, decided. Duck on top! Just noticed there’s one hanging up—look! A bird. A sloth. It’s a towel zoo. I noticed this cart. We got on from this same spot. Entered from that entrance, right? You can roll right in. And it’s got straps. So babies can safely sit in it. Very thoughtful design. Silent Disco duck goes right here at Silent Disco. Alright. You place it. I keep hesitating. Okay, this is the one. Last one—Scarface duck. I noticed something really interesting. Everyone’s searching the bushes. Kids always peek inside like this when looking. And someone put one on a teddy bear’s hand. Totally obvious. Still didn’t notice it. They keep looking downward. This looks like a little graffiti corner. Don’t think it’s just junk. It’s actually a performance venue—The Attic. Did we watch anything there? Nope. Is there a showtime we can catch? Tonight. Check your schedule. Okay. Let’s see what snacks they have today. Hey— This actually looks pretty good. But I’m too full to eat. (Too full yet still comes to check every day.) This is fun. Look, it’s soft on all four sides. Let me say something. Since we’re here anyway— Behind this pearl thing, there used to be another space. But look at this— There are power outlets along the side. Even USB ports. If you want to chill here, go for it. You can relax in comfort. You won’t want to leave. Feels a bit too obvious, though… Are you sure this is a good spot? Eh—it’s gone! Someone took it. But now there’s a cup here instead. That was fast. It’s 9 AM now. Heading out for breakfast. Today we’re docked in Roatán, Honduras. No diplomatic ties. The place that cut ties with us. Honduras, wanna sell me white shrimp? No no no. Let’s go. So many people. everybody watching wash your hands Whoa. This is so over the top! Look up there. That’s insane. They even have these? (A paradise for sugar addicts.) Wow—you got one too? All kinds of doneness. This is kind of evil. This donut looks just right. So much sugar! That’s super fattening. Scrambled eggs with shrimp. (Breakfast doesn’t have as much variety.) (But still more than enough to eat.) Too much applesauce! That’s congee! Smoked salmon with cream cheese. Kids’ drinks. Everyone’s carrying a bottle. Ordered an omelet. They give you a number so you don’t have to wait. Congee. Hi! Okay okay. (And you still grabbed a bottle yourself.) How’s the breakfast? This croissant… American-style. thank you (The omelets on Icon come with jalapeños.) oh my god Done with breakfast—feeling curious. Waterpark? Whoa, so bright. Way fewer people now. Just kids. They’re already playing. What now? Not getting off the ship? Anyone in line? Nope, no one. Look, just those two went up. Oh. Are we still going to Honduras? Or skip it? They cut ties with us anyway. Hahaha. Let’s take a look around. Mornings are awesome. There are actual birds flying around! Feels just like… hey. Time for some melon. Melon sticks. Mmm… 9.9 points! Let’s look around. See what’s here. (QBao visits Pearl Cafe every single day.) (Muesli: that breakfast you prepped 4 hours ago for your kid, then forgot to eat.) This pier was built by Royal Caribbean. Really? Yeah, really. So fancy. Drinking paid coffee every day. Today’s choice: cappuccino. They even pull the towel over and get it ready for you. Yay~ time to disembark! We’re on an escalator right now! Can’t believe there’s an escalator going down. Wahahaha! What’s that smell? Smells like white shrimp. There are pirates. Wanna take a photo? come here * 100 (Not sure why he’s screaming when he’s the one holding the knife) He’s really good at this—super good. That looks amazing. Take a look. Oh wow. Got the ship in the shot. food and drink, food and drink The vibe here is great. Swim-up bar. There’s a free pool right after getting off. They built it. This port is really well-developed. If you don’t wanna go far, you can just chill here. Tiki bar. free WiFi So cute. Let’s look around. Did I forget to bring sunscreen? I brought some. This is adorable. That’s a coconut bowl! Wait—no, it’s carved. I have a question. We didn’t exchange currency. They accept US dollars here. Oh, okay. They also take cards. That’s super cute. Wait, is that for black pepper?
It’s a spice jar! This one’s adorable too. How much is this? Using my professional exchange tool… Honduran Lempira HNL 1:1.25 TWD 1,000 Lempira = 1,250 NT dollars Ah! Chocolate factory. Three bars for $20 (USD) They’ve got souvenir T-shirts too. $22 (USD) Totally American style. Look… full print. Roatan I have espresso, orange, mint, coconut regular chocolate, mixed nuts and 77% is the highest regular dark chocolate 70% (Sacred magic—once you try it, you’ll want to buy it) Rich aftertaste. Fruity and tangy. Pretty unique. I think this place is super cool. Look, they’ve got hammocks out back. Looks amazing, right? And it’s all free. This spot is so chill. My pants are soaked, hahaha. I’m gonna punch you. You haven’t even left and your pants are already wet. There’s a rinse station here. Really convenient. You can wash off the sand before putting shoes back on. That area is for massages. Looks super chill too. Roatan. And Icon’s back there too. The fat ship. The sign is designed with 3D depth. No matter how you shoot it, it looks good. This area is a restaurant. Smells amazing. (The sloth plushie is so cute) No, you can’t. This is too cute. Is this a pepper shaker? This is what Roatan island looks like. Honduras is down here. We’re docked here. Where are we going later? Coxen Hole. This is the most popular beach. We’ll go somewhere in the middle to see sloths. The exit here is super inconspicuous. It’s like they don’t want you to leave. good morning sir, taxi? This is where you go to West Bay. (Hey handsome, don’t go!) ooxx city tour English? English. one minute one minute i have a reservation, thank you Have try, man. Have try, bro. Enjoy! thank you i will are you guys need a local taxi? local taxi All the legit ones are inside.

Yeah you guys book Daniel Johnson right? Ohh this way, follow me Wait a sec Ohh i’m so sorry That earlier price was better. And it seemed to include more too. Can we change our minds now? Hahaha Let’s cancel! That was $10 cheaper. Even more He said he’d take us on a city tour too. To other places. He said buy one and take a bite. right here? yeah This sloth sanctuary has great online reviews. Others are cheaper. But we don’t know which zoo they’re going to. So I can’t say if cheaper means better or not. Just compare and decide. I think they’re taking us down a magical trail. hi hi come on and you’re Gonna have an um a tour guide with you and it’s very hot today This place looks gorgeous. is every day the weather like this? um no sir We drove for 25 minutes. Finally arrived. So far! All I can say is, once you exit the port, it’s a whole different world out there. (This is way too expensive. I can’t afford it.) 30 bucks per person. He said wait here. Someone will take us in for a tour soon. And when it’s over, he’ll be waiting over there for us. He came just to pick us up. Do we need to pay her for the ride? It’s included. It’s starting. Hey, so we’re…?
Joining the tour. Told you we should’ve brought it. And cold beer too. let’s go begin with the sloths okay (The monkey stole the sunglasses.) you got a sunglass So aggressive! get back Abu would you need some cash Does he want to wear it? i’ve one dollar, give me Let’s go. They went to see the sloths. Nope. In the tree. It’s sleeping. There are three of them! Look! There’s one over here! Looks like it’s injured on the back. Oh no… Its claws… are so long! It’s climbing over. Is it moving in slow motion? It’s so slow… It looks so tired. We can see your face now. So cute. Aww~ he fell asleep. (He’s showing us how he interacts with the adult monkey.) (The guide gave us some sunflower seeds.) (Grabbed a huge handful at once.) She just warned you— Don’t give it too many at once! Only one at a time! oh so adorable hi you want some seeds So cute! Its hands feel so soft. No claws at all. It’s using its mouth. (to move them) (What do you usually do on your day off?) (My mom told me to watch QBao Travel.) (But he uploads super slow.) (Tell me about it.) i have no seeds wow
(Straight-up showing off.) Is that a baby? Maybe. A green parrot. I got a really close-up shot! Look at its feathers. We’re out of seeds. Just pick some up off the ground, they’re still good. People drop them sometimes. hi Buddy Is it tasty? i want an iced coconut (Trying to splash me in the face.) welcome thank you you’re welcome 5 bucks each—most expensive coconut ever. A $5 coconut better taste amazing. Ah— It’s not cold at all. Hahaha! Not sweet either. The coldest part is just the shell. Alright~ tour’s done. Let’s head back to the ship and play. We’ve got a ride back. Papaya Bananas pineapple We’re here. Bye bye! Just in time for lunch. You know this ship’s bow is super hard to film? Because it’s too wide. My phone can’t fit it in. People must be wondering— Eh? You just went to see some animals and came back? Why not go explore more? I’ll tell you why— If you want sightseeing and adventure, just go with another ship. Take Carnival or something. Or Princess Cruises. But if you’re on Icon— Of course we’re heading back to enjoy Icon! We paid a ton for this. The whole point is to enjoy the ship. The ship is the main event, okay? Just hear a sloth make a sound and we’re good. Then head back. It didn’t make a sound. Actually I think you were the one— Yeah, pretty sure that yelling was just you. So cute! Baby palm trees. The vibe here is actually really nice. I’m serious. Honestly, even if you don’t go out and explore, it’s fine here. And guess what— This place has free Wi-Fi! (He’s living the life again.) (Take a moment to admire our chonky ship.) Look! There’s beer all over the top deck! Lobsters! That’s lobster, right? The whole park is about this big. Here’s the map of the area. This side is awesome too, look! Did you drink it? Let me share a little tip— If you want someone to take your photo, don’t ask a guy. Mine turned out horribly just now. Ask a young girl instead— the angle was spot on. She’s posted more IG pics than you’ve had rice. Dang. What ship is that? It’s got water! Thr largest ship in the world When life gives you lemons, make lemonade. So refreshing and cool. Back to the ship! Bye-bye! Feels amazing to be back. This is what civilization feels like. It was way too hot outside. This is like a private outdoor area. Hold on— This is the running track! I’m telling you, this is already wide-angle. Still can’t fit the whole thing in. And another track behind us. So many little details. It’s leaking! Let’s go. Monday. It’s around 2 PM now. Time for lunch! Listen— Don’t think you need to hit the buffet every day on this ship. There’s just too much food onboard! You don’t have to hunt around at all. Though for filming purposes, we still make the rounds sometimes. You just love to eat, huh? I’m telling you—I still haven’t tried that hot dog! (And yet, here we are.) Freshly grilled steak every day—basic stuff. (New burger flavors daily.) (Dessert section is right next to it.) This one looks so cute! Mini apple pound cake. (I don’t even know what these all taste like.) (Should I book another cruise just to try?) That’s butter. Pork filet. Beef yesterday, pork today. (This section I know—tastes like grass.) (The fruits on the ship are really sweet.) (This is how Americans do pasta.) This one looks yummy! (The Indian food smells amazing.) Creamy chicken soup. (I’m not really familiar with this black bean soup.) (Who’s frying noodles over there?) Pudding. El Loco Fresh is open for lunch today. Nachos bowl cheese (Yeah… that’s someone else’s hand.) (Three kinds of meat!) Yours has cheese on it. What are you doing? (Load it up—none of your business!) Just a little of everything. Did you mess it up? I grabbed a bowl of really weird stuff. Haha. Seriously weird. You go ahead and eat it. Mine has chicken. Smells good, chewy and tasty. This is called the Greedy Taco. Stuffed to the max. Can’t even close it—sauce is spilling. So is it good? The greedier, the better! I’m telling you, mine is delicious. It’s got everything. Just throw in whatever, it all works. Yours looks way too extra. So what? Didn’t you just say the greedier the better? You can but I can’t? Looks pretty awesome. Hold on. I can’t see clearly. Right across there. That guy just flew across! What? Are you staff or something? This ground feels kind of soft. And kinda dirty too. There are tons of kids running around here every day. Of course it gets dirty. I just realized the floor is a little squishy. Time to rent towels. It’s whale day today. thank you Even on disembarkation day, it’s still super crowded. are you okay? i’m good (Switching to another set of waterslides) They’re color-coded. So there are three slides here. They’re sorted by colors. Dropping down from over there. Here’s how it looks inside. There are three water slides. alright~ are you ready? yeah are you ready? 3 (Wow, straight to 3 huh?) bye bye He just launched himself from here. Hahahahaha How many slides did you try? Five slides. Too bad we couldn’t film it. But I tried to catch some cool moments for you all. I really gave it my best. Just to get one shot of you, I had to film like ten strangers first. (Chilling in the adult whirlpool) hot hot It’s hot. We’ve completed our waterslide mission today. And he even did it twice. (Everyone’s sipping cocktails in the whirlpool) (So I decided to grab one too) Six-dollar Margarita (The bartender suddenly asked QBao to taste-test) is it good? (And he topped it up again!) Super sweet. You drink it. (This is the Margarita I actually ordered) So good. Mine’s kinda salty. Yours is super sweet. Living the good life. happy happy happy So cute. Cheers! Happy hour! (Sipping cocktails while soaking in water — bliss) (QBao’s about to type nonsense again) (I’m telling you, your shoulders…) (The comfort you promised me…) (Holding your head every day…) (But no hugs for me at all…) (Now even cherry blossoms smile during the day…) (I had the first…) Downstairs. Wanna try the kids’ pool? Did you see anyone in the suite? Oh right. (You doubted what you washed…) (So suspicious… dragging out the ending…) (He forgot to sneak one. I asked, where is it?) (I grabbed one. He said, take two if you want.) (Twisted and it turned into a big fart.) (A view you’ll never get tired of.) The Mediterranean Sea. washy washy (Now they’re unstoppable — they’re totally hyped up) Italian Night burrata Hey~ they’ve got this! Want to try it? (Even today’s burger is red and white themed) hi (Have you subscribed yet? Hurry and click it!) (Do it now!) hello (That’s not tiramisu, right?) (That’s a cannoli) (Lasagna) Looks way too delicious. (Cheese chicken cutlet?) (Did you notice there’s asparagus inside the ham?) (Arancini – fried rice balls) (Meatballs stew) (Don’t ask me what turkey has to do with Italy) (Today’s fruits: strawberries and grapes) (The shrimp looks amazing) (I know some dishes basically never change) (But you’ve been watching for almost two hours) (So here’s a little more food porn for you) (This kind of beauty shouldn’t be enjoyed by me alone) There’s pasta on the side too. Looks fantastic. I just wanted to see what’s for dinner tonight… And somehow I ended up grabbing all this. So many excuses. And you know we’re actually sailing off right now. Shouldn’t we be watching? There’s just too much going on on this ship. No time to care about the view outside, you know? Wanna take a look, we’re turning now. I still filmed a short bit. But I think eating is more important. So, how’s your food? Honestly, forget the fancy stuff— The basics they have every day aren’t even worth mentioning. Like every day… shrimp as big as you want As much as you want Steak? However many slices you want Eat all you like Any time of day – breakfast, lunch, dinner Today I shared in a group chat And someone actually asked me If the food quality was okay If it’s better than Celebrity Cruises I told them, you’re overthinking it. Taste-wise, it’s all good. Maybe not super fancy, But it’s delicious. Really good. You’ll finish everything. It just happens. Like… whoops, I ate it all. Chili dog. The bun’s square and matte textured. Normally in Taiwan, I’d never spend money on this. But here? Just dig in. I’m someone who loves eating hot dogs. Even the mixed veggies are here. He’s amazing. He speaks Chinese! So awesome. Is everyone here supposed to speak Chinese? Chinese. Worked in China for a year. Where were you? Guilin, Guangxi. Chili okay? Yes~ I love spicy food. Me too. thank you Not sure if it’s authentic stir-fry He said he spent some time in Guangxi Hot! A bit oily But the flavor is pretty good Kind of sweet and spicy This looks super cool. What is this? Bahamas. Costa Rica. Whoa~ these are stamps! Yeah! So cool! Take a look. next Cruise OK, it’s 7:30 PM now. I brought a pack of Zhou Hei Ya duck. Look, there’s even a chair. Someone drew this. Looks legit, right? Look. Doesn’t it look awesome? It’s really dark. There are a lot of people… what now? If it doesn’t work, we’ll just wait a bit. What do you think about this spot? Set your chair up first. Here you go. Do you think anyone will notice it? Tomorrow. You mean no one’s going to find it tonight? It’s that dark. And the chair is green too. Hahahahaha. Look, filming backward like this is gorgeous. There are two AquaTheater shows today. good evening pineapple shrimp Oh, it’s inside. anything else sir that’s it that’s it okay thank you thank you It looks beautiful and tasty. Pineapple shrimp balls. Oops. Oh. It’s lukewarm, not hot. Honestly can’t really tell it’s shrimp. But I can taste a bit of sweet and sour sauce. As a Taiwanese from East Asia— I give it a 5.87. Oh man. I picked some veggies. This one’s tofu. The texture’s not bad. Kinda like fried tofu. I think it’s alright. Actually pretty tasty. Let me say it— The pineapple shrimp balls are the worst thing you’ve had on the ship. Hahaha. Should’ve rated it 2.8 or so, right? The more you eat, the lower the score. Lower and lower… 0.8. Hahaha. 3.54 points. That’s still kinda high. I gotta leave some room at the bottom. This thing’s not meant to be eaten. It’s already torn. Ugh~~ can’t open it. Take a look. Learning Chinese. 甜 sweet Next, next. Your education will help you become a good… Blah blah blah… Let me revise it for you— Your education will help you become someone who talks nonsense. Let me translate it for you.
幫你翻譯 I just walked over and saw a huge crowd in the back. The AquaTheater is totally packed. You have to make a reservation. Otherwise, you can’t get in. It’ll be surrounded. Anyway— I just want to say this place still looks stunning at night. Thought we’d take a little walk. Back on Ascent, at Eden, we already thought it was super spacious and grand. But this… What’s going on here? It’s massive. So wide I don’t even know what to say. You’d doubt you’re even on a ship. No kidding. The vibe here is actually quite nice too. But there are just too many options on this ship. So this place… It’s hard to even think about it at first. It looks so cool at night. I noticed people lining up on both sides of the staircase. Let’s check where the captain is sailing the ship now. Can’t really see, can you? Too dark to see anything. Pitch black. Found a restaurant over here. And right across from it is a show. Feels like you’re sitting street-side, watching a performance. Not bad at all. Pretty nice, actually. Wow. Royal Bling Italian Night Looks the same every day. Why did you loop around here? I want to buy that wristband. That band can be reused continuously. And since I sail with Royal Caribbean so often— wouldn’t it make sense to get one? I estimate I’ll probably do four cruises this year. Okay. Now we’re part of the wristband club too. Thank you. He’s such a nice guy. Did you go out today? Yes, yes we… What is that? There are three kinds of bread today. The tomato soup has a bit of pasta in it. Very rich tomato flavor. Not bad. A little sour. Shooting videos takes sacrifice. Honestly, I don’t usually eat this dish. The beef carpaccio is made with tenderloin. It specifically says beef tenderloin. Plus Parmesan cheese and spinach. And this crispy garlic topping. Mmm, very tender. The key is that it’s full of Parmesan flavor. Delicious. Fragrant. Quite good. It’s more about the aroma. Pretty rich. Wow. So luxurious. Right before I started eating, they upgraded it again. They added even more Parmigiano Reggiano. Cooked just right. Perfectly done. The top cheese layer is melty and stretchy, the lasagna underneath has texture, and the meat sauce is the highlight. 8.134 points. When I first touched the plate— the plate was burning hot. This is the upgraded version—1.5x the cheese! Mushroom risotto. It has that truffle aroma. Doesn’t feel very “Italian,” but it tastes good. The rice isn’t undercooked enough. Haha. Not al dente enough. But the aroma is there, and it tastes good overall. Let me try my pan-fried fish. Is it good? Salty and sour. Wait a sec— I’ve always wondered— Every time I’m on MSC, when I order fish, it always tastes super salty. Maybe the seasoning is off? But even American ships are the same. Maybe this type of fish is just meant to be this salty? It’s just… yeah. Wow. A perfect Italian Night of course ends with tiramisu. Sorry, but… Italy ranks very high in my heart. This one is… just okay. Not bad. Slightly too moist. My conclusion: America might still be a bit far from Italy— Stick to eating steak on American ships. OK, we’re done with dinner. That little silent disco yesterday was too weak. But the silent disco in the atrium here is packed. 9:38 PM. People were already lining up before it even opened. Ours starts at 10:30. We lined up 45 minutes before the doors opened. hi this amazing woman on her channel guys is amazing welcome to icon of the seas you have to make a reservation you have to make a reservation all the time thank you This is all you need to get in. So powerful. So, where do you want to sit? Do you need a table? Or just sit here? This is great—second row seats. Make sure you’re protected. Bring a towel. Even though there’s a fly up there… Stop talking nonsense. We won’t get wet here. Look at the floor. If it’s wet, it’s the front. Dry here. There’s still front row seating. (Hamster people) (Subtitles are taking a break) It just flew onto your head. aqua action
(The name of this show) Okay, show’s over. I feel like the whole thing was just… that. No— Usually when you watch a show, it’s just a stage performance. At most, like last time on Celebrity Ascent, they interact with the audience. Or like on Virgin Voyages, they also interact with you. But this one… it was like flying through the air! They literally flew over your head! #@$%^&* I thought it was incredible. Just a few clips are enough to show. Just a reminder: if you sit in the back, you’ll miss out. Choose the front seats. Hard to describe it well. Just sit in the front, trust me. There’s a bar here—let’s walk around. This is chill. chill The lights are different now. So luxurious. Look at this. It’s amazing. I could lie here all day. No one’s around now. Perfect for photos. It’s okay to book an inside cabin. Just come lie here instead. You won’t even need the room. Perfect lighting reflection just now. Give me a blanket— I could live right here. Ding dong~ Room service! And this is just one of the chairs. Take a look at the back area. Why do these chairs look so luxurious? They’re huge. So spacious. Look at this hallway— You could drive a car through it. Seriously, a car. Let’s check out that spot over there too. This color palette feels kind of familiar… Last time I was lying here too. So much space, way too spacious. You think we could cancel the room? This space is pure luxury. Don’t want to lie down? Just sit. Did you notice something? From over there all the way here— What’s the most common drink at night? Coffee. And then? Everyone’s drinking coffee at night. Are you Italian? Want a cup? No thanks. Come here. Wait, you need to shoot this for IG. Oh! I found it! So cute. It even has writing on it.
You gonna post on IG? You can totally show it off. That little kid nearby is looking for one too. It’s from the Braham family. So adorable. i found one yeah lucky Show it off! Come here. Come here! It’s right in the corner.
No wait— Look! It’s that one, right? Same person. Is it the same person? Braham family. Braham family, don’t hide them all in the same spot! I got two ducks! Let’s check out the late-night snacks. You can heat it up. Oh that salad looks pretty good. But I’m not really hungry. Do you want coffee? Same as usual. Desserts! This one looks pretty good. Red velvet. Oh—lights out. 7:36 (Because someone comes every morning for coffee) good morning morning thank you Thanks! Abu. Abi abi abi abi abi! Hehehe. Same menu. But it’s printed in a different format. Matches today’s theme — Caribbean. thank you French toast. Strawberry sausage. Sweet and fragrant. There’s vanilla inside. Tastes like ice cream. Really good. Don’t you think there’s too much salmon? I placed one roll and it looks like this. What? Are you complaining there’s too much salmon now? Haha. I’ll file a complaint. Too much salmon. It’s hard to grab. You’re already so tall. There’s still one piece left. This is unacceptable. 10:20 — Ready to go. Today we’re docking at Costa Maya. Seems like many people leave this late too. Shore excursions don’t always leave first thing. good morning one towel thank you There’s… Take a look. See anything? Free tote bag exchange! Wow! Look, what’s that? Virgin Voyages. Check out our T-shirt. Haha. Mermaid! Gotta capture this! Can’t fit it. Too big. Come on, one more shot! Look at that water color—so stunning. Bluer as we get closer. Yeah, and with the cruise ship in the back… We’re here. There’s a clear sign here. You already booked it— the parking for your shore excursion. There’s a free pool inside. (Get those two over here.) (Yeah, you two.) Because in the U.S., tipping is a thing. Spending a bit to take a photo is fine. Besides, where else can you get a shot like this with them? That counter over there is still selling (day tours). you got transportation round trip loungers umbrellas kayaks and unlimited drinks They’ve really developed the port well. Costa Maya is the only dedicated cruise port in the Western Caribbean. Oh? Only cruise ships dock here. Same deal. Just different companies. Wheelchair racing. That way to the beach. All good. Sneak a peek. Wait wait— Oh he climbed up! Four people up there. He’s gonna lower himself! (This is a traditional blessing ritual.) (You can see all this right from the cruise port.) Water park’s crazy expensive. Over $100 per person. Look, this is amazing. And it’s free! It’s so hot out. Tempted to jump in? But you didn’t bring your swimsuit. (The vibe is amazing — so tempting to get in the water.) This beach is fake. There’s no real sand. Carnival Oh Wow Flamingo Why is it walking like that? That’s so funny. Is it looking for something? I have no idea. So funny. Haha Hello Let’s take a look around. This is super cute too. Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) So adorable. This place is so fun to explore. There’s so much here. And it leads to the other side too. Check this out, so cool. Look! He’s super cute. There are two more inside. Hahaha This one’s pretty cool. Let me take a look. You might actually need this someday. Cacao It smells kinda weird in here. That’s vanilla. I think they sell chocolate? But who knows if it’s good? This weather’s so weird. Suddenly it’s raining. But I don’t think it’ll last. The bird sanctuary is closed today. It’s pouring. Good thing we didn’t go far. Honestly, it’s fine staying here today. Let’s check out the other side. And just like that, the rain stopped in under five minutes. And the sun came out even stronger. That cloud just dropped rain and vanished. Dolphin place. Where you swim with dolphins. Parrot Smells amazing everywhere. They even have a pool outside the exit. There’s a bit more sand here. Happy Port Is this person going on another big adventure? We’re heading out now. We’re walking toward Mahahual. Alright! Nice weather You need taxi, tell me Okay hahaha Thank you Hey, this might actually be real ruins. It’s a roundabout. There’s even Wi-Fi. Did you see “Mayan ruins”? Best price here, minivan You’re always behind me. It’s easier for me to film this way. I wanted to say— They walk down the middle of the road. And people just approach you there. Gracias Mahahual, about 20 minutes walk Thanks It’s good weather. Gracias Corner store What corner store… supermarket It’s all set up so casually. Glass bottle Coke is super cheap. Only 12 pesos. Turns out he doesn’t take credit cards. He does, but not tap-to-pay. You need to insert the card. Is it good? Tastes like Mexico. Chihuahua! So fierce! Good thing we’re on this side. Hold on. Let’s show everyone across the street. Oh! Look, the beautiful water. So gorgeous. Let’s explore a bit. (Smash that like button—or else!) Totally worth coming here just for this view. There’s a bird in the tree. A black one. You can walk out over there too. Someone’s biking around over there.
(Wait, isn’t that a Segway?) Wahahaha It’s so beautiful. Do you know this water? It’s totally clear. And super shallow. This spot is stunning. Didn’t bring the snorkel masks? Yeah, look, he’s just sitting there. There’s a sandbar out there. That’s why it’s so calm in here. Love it. (This place is gorgeous—white sand, shallow water.) Oh. Oh my god. There’s more over here! This place is just too beautiful. You can tell which cruise ship they’re from just by their towels. Alright, alright— You’ve got enough footage. Ignore me, ignore me. Aren’t you the one who loves fishing? Let’s go find a restaurant. (The vibe here is amazing.) Take a look my friend, maybe you like something. Look, a little food cart. Korean!
(So loud though!) Just ahead there’s a bank. Whoa. Their gas tank is shaped like a ball. Yeah, right? Okay Amigo, welcome! (How about a massage? I’ll give you a deal~) Thank you. You just keep filming. It’s this pretty—of course I’ll film! If I don’t film, no one gets to see it. How long is your video gonna be? Don’t worry about me. Five hours. Fishing again? Another beach up ahead. (These chairs are light!) (What if I turn evil?) (You dare roast me?) (Strip! Take it off~) Welcome OOXXOOX! Take a look at my menu! I have shrimp tacos, fish tacos, and chicken tacos. It’s good here! Welcome to Mahahual, Mexico! Thank you! Thank you. Thank you. So many people here. (You’re still watching? Take a break!) Super Mario! Tables, chairs, lockers, shower, bathroom, kayak, umbrellas! Everything is free! No charge at all! Up to you. Or wanna look around more? I heard about you! Thank you! Lobster! That whole place is theirs? Yeah. The car they rented is super cool. Ice cream truck! (Hey, see who that is?) (Who?) (Idiot.) (Don’t you recognize QBao?) Time to exchange money. 18.4 Seems pretty low. We’ll exchange 20 bucks. Gracias. Take a look. This is what the money looks like. The exchange rate kinda sucks. Just keep a bit on hand. For small shops and such. Paying in pesos is definitely better. So many people soaking in the water. (Let’s go check out the beach.) Whoa~ this— It’s super shallow. We didn’t even bring our swimsuits. Leaving the beachfront now. Heading further back. It smells amazing. Is it this one? La Pancha Best taco? The best, yes. (Even grandma and uncle give it a thumbs up.) Let’s sit here then. Tiny table. This is so cute. This Fanta looks super orange. The sun’s got us really tanned. It’s so hot—my face actually hurts from the sun. Oh, very nice. (Food’s here!) Gracias. Looks amazing. Best taco! Mine’s more like a burrito. So good. The outer shell is pan-fried to a crisp. Crispy and firm. Crunchy. And inside is rich cheese and juicy meat. I think a bit of acidity would balance it out. (So flavorful!) I ordered a beef taco. Should I add this? Like mustard and ketchup?
(Not quite.) Yours looks like mine. But mine has a soft shell. Super juicy. Juices all over my hands. Perfectly seasoned. With cilantro too. It actually has cilantro! Just found out this bottle is hot sauce. So good. Even better with the hot sauce. Super juicy. We found some folks to share a ride. So funny. The driver won’t go unless there are four people. (Have a safe trip!) Ride back costs $5 per person. Same as going there. (Still hyped even on the way back.) (Really wanted to buy that weird-looking cocktail.) Wanna drink? Sure. Can’t go in.
Can’t get inside. It’s a dolphin! So awesome. Wow! Hahahahahaha. (This stranger is really playing along!) Still working, huh? Change the pose. (Back to the ship to relax!) Sudden downpour! Let’s go, go, go! Wait a sec! Weather flipped on the coast. Just started pouring. It’s pouring hard. We look like drowned rats now. It’s okay, it’s okay. It’s not just the rain— the waves are wild too! Wow, weather really changes fast at sea. The Caribbean is so unpredictable. We’re back! Oh my god. Haha. Oh! There’s another one today. What is it? A monkey! It’s flying! Its eyes are apart now. So cute. It walked away chewing its hand. Hmph! I didn’t get a good photo. The original “toothpick bear” is gone. Someone said they wanna check out the buffet. Old habits die hard. Always gotta do a buffet lap. Well yeah, the options on your side are better. 3:46 Today’s final boarding time is 4:30. So it should be pretty crowded now. The buffet’s already closed. Now we have Pearl Cafe, Garden Cafe. We rarely come to Surfside. But there’s actually a lot to eat here too. The rain’s stopped! No it hasn’t! They’re not using umbrellas. Oh. Okay. (This guy really loves to play around.) Hi. Did you see him today? Whoa, so much water! Yeah! It just poured earlier. Surfside Eatery. Kids can eat while playing here. Close. GG. Closed again because of the rain. Another downpour. There’s a… Thank you. Let’s have a look. Eggs. Plumeria. There’s a little stand here. And if you want face painting, you can even get it on your body. That angle really shows off the ship. Thought it was a Philly cheesesteak, but it’s mushrooms instead. Still looks pretty good. The crust is super crispy. Smells great too. It’s just like what Starbucks does. They keep it in a fridge, then heat it up for you. But it’s heated thoroughly. Super heavy with spices. So good. I just went to get a sandwich, and he remembered my name! That’s amazing. I’ve only been there once or twice. He actually remembered me! Unbelievable. So impressive. This one’s heated too. Hot hot. Not bad. Cheese and apple aroma. Arugula with warm bread. Delicious. This is the Italian specialty restaurant. Have we ever been in this area? You can go in once you’re a Diamond member. You need 80 cruise nights to qualify. One point per night. Oh, so you need 80 points. Or stay in a suite. Then only 40 nights. 80 nights means at least 12 cruises. Not really—you just need longer sailings. Still means a long stay. It’s basically just a lounge. Nothing too special. I’m telling you, on Icon, it’s really not a big deal. Unless you’re on one of those tiny ships, where a private lounge actually matters. You can have a drink. Let’s check out the tall ceilings while we’re here. It feels really open. Nice view too. When you walk past like this, it just feels endless. Like five times my height. So far. Thank you, thank you. That’s our room attendant. He’s amazing. Thank you, thank you! Okay, it’s 6:30 PM now. Tonight is Caribbean Night. Go go go! You totally blend in with the carpet. Blend in? Yeah, your colors match perfectly. Thank you! Wow~ this place— It’s really cool in here. If you’re afraid of the cold, wear a jacket. I just want to say—it’s really cold inside. The light jacket I brought wasn’t enough. This guy even got me a towel to wrap up in. So thoughtful. And then he went and stole an ice cream. I tempted the person next to us. They went to grab one too. (This is the ice skating show.) Oh my god (Ghost squad) (Candy people) OK, it’s over now. That show was about 45 minutes long. If you have a reservation, get there early to sit in the front row. You might get a little surprise. How did it feel? It kinda felt like a mix between sports and performance. If you’ve never seen a skating performance or competition, watching it live feels— a bit intense and exciting. Kinda like watching the Olympics or something. That kind of vibe. Everything for 2024 is on sale. They’re really pushing the “8 neighborhoods” thing. Chill Island, Thrill Island, Hideaway, Royal Promenade Surfside Eatery Smells amazing the moment you walk in. Corn salad. Looks really good. What do I do? Feels like a mini buffet. Turns out the pizza is the most popular. Ice cream machine. Wait—what’s that you’ve got?! A kids’ plate. Specially made meals just for kids. We’ve never caught it available before. Just looking at the plate— It totally matches my style. Gonna try my garlic butter shrimp first. Let’s dig in. Smells amazing. That rich garlic aroma! 8.834 points. Bouncy and chewy. Can you tell what animal it is? The whole vibe inside— Very child-friendly. But also super classy. There are crabs— And surfboards. So many! Even the ceiling’s decorated. Just realized there’s a mini kids’ theater here. The vibe changes completely over here. (Frozen!!) Yeah, found it! So cute. That’s the rainbow scarf duck. With my awesome duck buddy. A Taste of the Caribbean Feels like everyone’s in Hawaiian shirts. I secretly showed off to the kid next to me. Battle duck. Welcome back, welcome back, welcome to Taste of the Caribbean! Coconut-crusted shrimp. Looks golden and crispy. Oh! You can really taste the coconut. Super crispy. Really hot too. Lentil soup. Tomato-based flavor. Perfect temperature. Super rich. A little crunchy. Beans and tomato flavor. Not bad! Tonight’s chef’s special. Looks like six big shrimp at a glance. Eh? Wait—that’s what I ate earlier! Didn’t we just eat a ton at the kids’ restaurant? It said “Tiger Shrimp” earlier. These aren’t Tiger Shrimp… But there are six. I get it now. Smaller in size, but they made up for it in quantity. Thank you It’s now 9:40. Buffet’s already closed. Just wanna say— I don’t think we even went to Deck 15 today. And we didn’t have a single buffet meal. So sad. Wait— Didn’t we use to always start with Surfside? Yeah. But now there are so many other dining options onboard. So the buffet closes right after main mealtimes. Anyway, what I wanted to say is— There’s so much to do in a day. Some places you just won’t get to. So people are actually really spread out. (Out at night enjoying the breeze) You can tell—everyone down there is hunting ducks. Someone even brought a flashlight! Seriously. (Mom eating tofu pudding) (Gonna get me killed) (Such a perv) Sailor dog! I only caught like two or three seconds. His appearance was super brief. Must cost a lot to show up. (A cup inside another medium cup) (Gotta say, it drinks real nice) (Gangnam Style) (This port—we’ll be back again next week) Starting the day with a soak. (everybody everybody) (Oh no~ oh no) (Today we’re 100% staying onboard) (We’ve got the pool all to ourselves. Almost got the hot tub too.) (Where did all 7,000 people on the ship go?) Honestly, giving up a port day to enjoy the ship— Super chill. Yeah, no one’s fighting for space. Hardly any lines either. Way more time to explore the ship than most people. (Thanks to the lifeguard for taking my pic) (Tell me I don’t look like a boss—two lifeguards just for me) Breakfast today at Windjammer. It’s already past 10 now. (Haven’t had any of these yet) (Benedict, omelets) (Just take a look for yourself) (Dishes repeat on purpose to avoid crowding) (Bakery & sweets area) (Bird food section) (Sugar overload section) They have congee. Oatmeal. (Avocado toast?) (Overnight oats?) (Margaritaville’s new ship: Islander) thank you thank you (Back at Pearl Café again) (Can’t believe we’re still eating) (Someone’s obsessed with Greek salad) That restaurant earlier— Super popular. Quite small. But it’s $200 per person. Not cheap. But they pair a custom wine for each course. It’s past 1:30 PM now. Let’s go for a walk. Cozumel. Today’s port, back onboard by 5:30. Yay! Our second time in Mexico. One thing— Right across is the Margaritaville Islander. Looks awesome. We’re surrounded by ships. Whoaaa. Looks like everyone’s coming back now— And we’re just heading out. No worries. First time seeing cleaning in progress. This makes the size difference really obvious. The water here is super shallow. So clear, right? oh sorry Just walking out this short stretch— We could spend all day filming this ship. Anyway, today we’re just casually exploring. And showing you— If you’re not taking any transportation, what kind of sightseeing and fun you can have here on foot. And the entertainment options too. Actually, the Royal Caribbean app says— It’s about a two-mile distance. You can walk or take a taxi. Just 10 minutes to the city center. But I think this area’s already pretty nice. After all, we’re on this ship— (The ship is the real highlight) We’re already in Mexico— Tequila’s a must, right? You gonna drink? Amigo Hahahahahaha (This guy’s weird) Lots of those “Grandma” T-shirts. Ha (Mexican people are really enthusiastic) ＃＄％＾＆＊（＊＾％＄＃ (Is he giving him a massage?) Now we’re back near the ship. (Finally found the exit) This is the hotel zone. There’s even a horse-drawn carriage outside. We’re at the International Pier. There’s a beach right in front. You can walk there too. But most people take a ride. How long’s the loop? If you’re sightseeing by taxi, about two hours. I just saw someone driving the wrong way. They even have these little carts. Do all the cars open like this here? Even that one across the street. Hola hola souvenir Hola (Just walking by—I didn’t even ask the price) five thirty Oh you have time you can drive around like this this is up you can go like two hours, hour and a half it’s cost of the double. for two people it’s cost forty five but you’re leaving now. i give you for thirty dollar Just for reference. I think you can probably haggle a bit. That’s the taxi rate. Small cars: 1–4 passengers. Large cars: 5–8 passengers. Each destination has a set price chart. And this exit leads right to the taxi area. Let’s go—back to the ship! Wow, the water looks amazing now. So beautiful. This color’s gotta be Photoshop, right? Nope, it’s real. Can’t stop snapping pics. It’s gorgeous. You wanna see how fat this ship is? That’s about 1… and this one’s 2.5. Look up. Hola amigo bye bye Of course I got water ready for you. Yeah yeah, I know.
It’s especially good. Celebrity Cruises even gives you towels. Not here though. It’s around 3 PM now. Let’s head back for some buffet. Feels like I haven’t had steak in a while. Let’s grab some. (Forgot what kind of burger this is today) Look behind me— All steak, stacked up. (Cake, cake!) hello hello yeah yeah, QBao Travel (Editing these food shots is making me hungry) (Maybe I should order a pizza) (Which cruise pizza do you guys like best?) Beef with broccoli. Chicken soup. (QBao’s back to stir-fry noodles again) (Feels a lot like Chinese-style chow mein) Back to the pool for round two at 4 PM. (First time checking out this Swim & Tonic Bar) (Ended up finding a rubber duck!) Duck number four. Some people just randomly leave them. (Sneaky little duck thief) (This pork floss isn’t even falling off) There’s another fun thing here too. Two chairs— And you can kick a ball. (This guy’s totally cheating) (Adults only!) No entry for me— I’m only five. (This area’s probably called The Hideaway) The lounge chairs next to it cost extra. Ooh—this angle! (Let’s get a unique perspective) The duck’s floating away with the breeze. Let’s see where it ends up. It sank. Bet someone will grab it in under 10 minutes. And the person who sees it will definitely wonder, “Can I take this? Is it okay?” Step in to save the day when needed. Time to release a super duck! It’s got ice cream and cocktails. Even a hand-drawn design underneath. Letting it go freely— Let’s see if someone spots it. Mission complete! The duck ended up with a super cute little girl. (Now it’s QBao’s turn to try FlowRider surfing) (Oh—just a face wash, not surfing after all) (Time to show some real skills) (Straight to the exit) Okay, it’s 7:30 PM now. Tonight’s White Night! Same shoes as usual. I’m telling you, they’re comfy! Sandals or slippers—easy swap. Alright, let’s go. This guy— Why’s there suddenly a pirate ship here? There’s a pirate parade happening. And tonight’s White Night? I thought the pirate ship fit better with Caribbean Night. So cool though. Okay! There are even designs printed on it. 10:30 PM— Look at that! SHIPS AHOY Pirates! They made it into a whole theme. And behind it, there’s a clearance sale. Tons of stuff and a big crowd grabbing deals. Designer brands… not ones you’d want. These don’t look like designer stuff at all. It says ten bucks. What’s inside? Looks like one of our cups at home. What was the original price? 22.99 (USD) Americans—
(Only they’d pay almost NT$700 for a cup) But it is kinda cute. The material… Oh—okay. Just browsing. You definitely wanted to come look. I’m telling you, we just passed by to check it out. Pasta station. Ramen, ramen. Whoa—your favorite hot dog again.
(Chili dog) Wow, lamb. It’s lamb today. Let’s try how it tastes first. Something different—look at this churro. Checking out the buffet is a must. What’s that in your hand? Churro. Today’s theme is Mexican. Chocolate? Red bean? (Mexican toppings) The tortilla’s packed with filling. (I actually really like Mexican food.) (Did you know I usually subtitle…) (Often at midnight?) (You can imagine how torturous it is.) (Sometimes I’m typing with one hand while eating with the other.) (And talking to myself while staring at the footage.) (So giving a free like isn’t too much to ask, right?) I just glanced at the ice cream walking by. And he told me, “You need some ice cream.” Hahaha—oh boy. I must look like a foodie. Let me try churros with ice cream. Should be a perfect combo. Oh. Chocolate flavor. Tasty, tasty. Really? Add some vanilla ice cream. Perfect match. Didn’t you say no more buffet browsing? Just a little dip. Oops. I think it’s a bit too burnt. Oh—okay. You can get one that’s less burnt. It’s actually pretty good. Alright… the beef was better. Yeah, it was overcooked. This salmon looks a bit dry too. Yours tastes better. (Good save.) They actually have a gluten-free section. (Stir-fry again!) Thanks. I ordered a plate of stir-fried veggies. Looks pretty decent, right? I specially asked them to use less oil today. Delicious. Ramen is a rare find today. They have two soups. Miso and tonkatsu. I got the tonkatsu one. I think the noodles are a bit soft. But the broth is decent. Overall I’d give it a 6—just passing. Still finished it though. There’s a line. Mostly Asians. I’m telling you, just a bowl of hot noodles is enough. Wednesday. Next up, the main dining room. What are we having? Classic shrimp cocktail. Today’s recommendation: corn chowder. So green… Typical foreigner soup. Chili lemon sauce (oops) Same as what I had upstairs. The salmon tastes about the same. But the fruit toppings add a lot of flavor. More depth in texture and aroma. Classic spaghetti bolognese. It’s okay—pretty standard. After a few days of dining, I feel like their Italian dishes— like lasagna or meat sauce pasta, or like what I ordered today, a classic Italian pasta— have a higher ratio of meat. I mean… if America has one thing, it’s meat. I don’t see any layers… That’s not lasagna… It’s “double-layered” at most. (The extra fruit plate we requested.) (Time to guess the song!) Walking around, we found this. Jesus? What’s he doing here? It’s 10:30 PM now. There’s an awesome event going on behind us. AHOY pirates. And this must be a sailor. Navy crew. (This parade is absolutely adorable.) (If you’re traveling with kids, don’t miss it.) (American Navy parade XD) Navy—so cute. (Classic G-1 flight jackets.) (Especially popular thanks to the Top Gun movie.) Viking. (Aladdin theme.) He’s wearing a muscle suit. This event’s main stage is right in front of the Pearl. That’s the better spot. You might want to arrive early. If you come right on time, you’ll be off to the side. But still not bad. They designed it to be visible from all angles. Finally. Wow. First time inside. Cool! The space is quite unique. We’re kind of off to the side. But it’s still fine. It feels more like a talk show. The language might be a bit of a barrier. But the atmosphere is actually pretty cool. Tasting the flavors of the Caribbean. I remember there was a bubbly drink? No idea where it is. how are we doing tonight? Passed by the casino. (The Music Hall tonight is super lively.) I noticed this area— everything’s related to Spain. This Latin Fest. Even the host only speaks Spanish. Can’t understand a word. But the vibe is amazing. Everyone’s dancing. (The music plays and people just hit the dance floor.) It’s on Deck 3. Pretty hidden location. They often have different events here. But this Latin Fest is a one-time thing. (On the last sea day.) Oh. Oh oh. Oh oh. Oh oh oh oh. Why is this so cute? What even is this? Is this just a bunny? OK, it’s 11:30 AM. Today is a sea day. Got any plans? We have a specialty restaurant booking at 1 PM. We can go rock climbing or something before eating. Rock climbing??? Go rock climbing in white? I’ll smack you. So crowded. Come on, let’s take a look. (How full of himself is this guy?) The makeup station’s back again. Kids can draw and doodle. So many chairs here. There’ll be a little show. Sometimes they make balloon animals for kids. Wanna get one? This one’s the candy shop. Selling straight-up calories. This must be one of their activities.
(This looks like DIY cupcakes.) Smells amazing in here. Cherry. Wow. So colorful. All kinds of candy. Lightsaber. Kids would be thrilled to get one of these. Look, there’s even gummy pizza here. They’ve got different ones too. Lightsaber. This place is just pure joy. This guy— I just found out a cup is only 5 bucks. Oh~ yesterday it was 10. I’m gonna check out the skating rink. Outside of showtimes, they offer different activities. Sometimes it’s kids’ time. Sometimes it’s laser tag. Here’s the teen club. Never been here. You’re not allowed in anyway. There’s a family ice show at 12:30. Looks pretty cute. There’s also a 2:30 PM show. Not really sure what the show is though. The door’s open, it’s open! Nice~ no reservation needed to get in. You can’t reserve this show. It’s only for today. Just two shows. But could it be a passenger family performance? I see a little car! No one here right now. Sit here? Or sit in the back? Time to eat. VIP room. Do you have to pay for this? Huge screens—three of them! It must feel awesome in there. There’s more inside too. They’ve got everything. Just find a seat yourself. There’s a bar area too. These chairs are so American. And if you look closely, there are outlets behind them. Decision made—buying a cup for $5. thank you thank you What if it’s 3 bucks tomorrow? Hahaha~ I’ll return it, return it. So far, does it feel like there are over 3,000 people on board? More than 7,000. One crew member told me there are 7,800 people.
(Official brochure said max 7,600.) Doesn’t feel like it, huh? It feels really empty. There’s a T-shirt sale up front. Displays in the middle. Pick what you want. Here’s today’s show. It has two showtimes. The Effectors—it’s Royal’s version of the Avengers. Ooh ooh ooh. Totally… the knockoff version of adventure. thank you (We ended up going rock climbing after all.) Rock climbing is free. If it’s free, we’re in. more lag finish you hold on the strap okay? got it Pretty fun, actually quite easy. Just climb up, that’s all. Since you’re looking up, it’s really not scary at all. You have to jump off at the end. Jumping down takes a bit of courage. (Didn’t even notice when I landed.) Windjammer Let’s stroll around the buffet again. They have pasta every day. By now I’ve got a better sense of things. (Still can’t tell what kind of burger this is.) Looks tempting, doesn’t it? (So, which dish are you craving the most right now?) Tiny scallops. Same as always. Veggie balls. (Aren’t these coconut shrimp?) Mussels. Mussels. Crawfish. Seafood section. Double lobster feast.
(That’s just crawfish, stop hyping it.) They have crawfish today since it’s a sea day. I’m going for this coconut shrimp. The main dining room still seems to have better quality. This feels a bit overcooked. These two look kind of fierce. Basically the whole front is inedible.
(Except for the claws.) Only the back part is edible. Hold here— Twist. Pull it out. And it looks like this. Just squeeze both sides like this. Hear that “crack”? Shell’s open. Right in the center of the tail— (Pull it side to side.) Pull it out. Is that the digestive tract? Yeah! Pretty pro, huh? Then just peel the shell off. The whole piece comes out clean. Looks a bit like imitation crab. So flavorful. Tastes of the sea. Wait—more like river flavor. Crawfish actually live in freshwater. Indian food. (I can’t name any of these, but they smell amazing.) Looks like a happy place here. You might not even need specialty dining. Oh right! It’s Italian night. Let’s book it. Everything feels so spacious. Hey… heyyy… Come back. Ignoring me, huh? It’s so much quieter here. Isn’t there a show here too? Today at 11:30 AM. Tribute to veterans. Looks like way fewer people here. We booked Hooked for lunch today. Wanna take a look at the menu? Appetizer—giant shrimp cocktail. Can we order anything from this? Basically, you can order as many appetizers, sides, and desserts as you want. And for the main course— They’ll even give you extra if you ask. Oh! So how much did you pay for this amazing lunch? 15 bucks. What? 14.99 plus 18% gratuity. I’m telling you— That’s McDonald’s prices. A burger at McDonald’s is already $10. Welcome! Hello hello. Wow. Freshly shucked oysters! As soon as you walk in, you’re hit with the smell of the ocean. Mm-hmm. Every one is labeled. Definitely high quality. Which side do you want? This is awesome. Check out that view. (Prime ocean-view seating.) So beautiful. Seafood with a sea view. We looked over the menu— For quite a while. So hard to decide. Everything looks so good. The highlight? One of the sides is lobster mac & cheese. Steak and fries. Steak and fries are just considered a side dish here! Here we go—first drink. Their signature cocktail. This one’s pricey. Almost the same price as the whole meal. $14. Ooh, that’s fancy. It’s a bit tangy and sweet. Garlic butter biscuits. Wow. They said be careful, it’s super hot. Wow. So sinful. You could get full just from this. Smell it. So fragrant, seriously fragrant. But it actually tastes pretty light. Looks heavy, though. It’s subtle. But the flavor’s nice. Why didn’t you book more meals here? Look at the size of this place— Only 15 bucks! Any tips for booking this restaurant? Lunch and dinner prices are more than double apart.
(Dinner starts at $55+, depending on promo.) But the menus are pretty similar between lunch and dinner. Dinner is usually just more formal. That’s why the price is higher. But honestly, lunch is still really great. Look at that view! So awesome. Definitely book lunch. And the decor inside is totally Mediterranean. (This appetizer is next-level!) I also ordered a Calamari for you. You can share it. (This server deserves 100 stars.) This is seriously over the top. Look how big that is! And that’s not even the main course. What did they give us? Fried calamari. Your favorite. Freshly fried to order. Let’s start with a small one. There’s lemon too… Looks super professional. You’re telling me this whole meal is $15? That’s rare even in the U.S. Not just the dish—THE WHOLE MEAL. Haha! Anyone mixing things up? No? Mmm. Tastes like the ocean. Feels like I swam in the sea. I ordered the clam chowder. This is like a whole pot! It’s huge—seriously. Wanna see the scale? It’s super hot. Whoa—it’s deep! So thick and rich. Like the kind you’d slurp in a single go. Packed with clams. I’m never going back to Costco chowder. Rich and flavorful. It’s really huge. One bowl of this— You won’t need anything else. What sauce do you want? I’ll get you some horseradish. It’s super sour. Actually, I’m not great with raw stuff. (The table next to us laughed at my expression) Spicy and sour. Pretty fun, actually. Not scary at all. Wanna try a couple more? Hahaha Your knife is huge. Steak knife. very hot and lobster tail right? lobster roll…… lobster coming （You eat this first） thank you I ordered a lobster roll… Why did they give me this?! Is there some kind of mistake?! He said yours is coming soon. Try this first to whet your appetite. Starting the meal with two lobsters? (Laughing out loud) I think you cut from the tail first. oh oh uh-oh Let me show you~ Let me help. So weak. There we go. Aiya! So this is what they mean by starting with lobster. (Won’t that be too big of a bite?) How’s the quality? (Awesome) Mine is lobster and steak. Suddenly I regret my choice. Your starter looks cooler than mine. Hahaha You got two, I only got one. Look at my filet mignon. It feels nice to cut into. Dip it in mushroom sauce. Let’s eat! Mmm. That char from the grill— Nice! Tell them how to cut the lobster too. It’s like with crawfish— Slice through the tail. Split it down the middle. Then just pull it out. This ship… Gives me the feeling— They love to scare people with lobster. (Laughing to the side) Totally shocked. Starting my meal with lobster! Royal Caribbean’s specialty restaurants— Their mission is to make you leave with a smile. Here comes my main dish. Lobster roll. Looks pretty cute. Honestly, I think my appetizer looked better. Come on. Cheers. Dip some of my butter. Creamed corn. So delicious. Lobster mac and cheese. Mac and cheese. Tastes like regular mac and cheese. The lobster is just a garnish. On this ship, lobster plays a supporting role. Lobster roll. Oh Already peeled for you. Pretty tasty. But the earlier one tasted even better—
I had two lobsters! Ugh, not fair! Cherry pie. That’s cherry. oh welcome back ladies and gentlemen （That was our server doing the voiceover） Is it really sour? It’s hot. Not sweet. Still good. So tall—
A mountain. Basically a mega-size concept. Chocolate brownie. So sweet. After eating, here’s how I feel— Dining in these specialty restaurants is all about indulgence. Before walking in, I thought—why pay more? The buffet is already awesome! But once you’re in—ohhh. OMG It’s pure joy. You’re paying for the emotional experience. I ordered a lobster roll— But got two whole lobsters! And I think the lobster was even better than the roll. Hahaha And then they come ask you— Is there anything else I can do to make you happier? To make it even better? I didn’t dare say “Can I have two more lobsters?” Couldn’t bring myself to say it. Would anyone dare to say— “Gimme three more!” or something? Honestly, it’s great. Highly recommend it. I have a question. If you have the Unlimited Dining Plan— You could basically eat like a pig, right? With that plan, you can eat at these restaurants anytime? Just gotta bring extra pants. I mean like XL ones. Or even 2XL. Prepare for three sizes. Board the ship as an M, leave as an XL. Why is it showing zero? Because we pre-booked it. So happy. Amazing. Super awesome! So many people! They’re using that as a projection screen. Royal Bingo! They even have a digital one! And Bingo T-shirts too! Yeah, super cool. They really know how to do business. (This person’s spying on us again.) Look. That’s Virgin Voyages, right? Looks red. And there’s a Carnival ship behind it too. What’s that? That’s the bridge. Rover lives in there. (the sailor dog) Can we go find him? Nope. Like over here, there’s a hurricane. So where’s Icon heading then? It’s not going to Europe. It’s staying here. Americans still prefer vacationing in the U.S. They like bringing America to other places. Last night I was watching that adult comedy show… He said this ship is so huge— it’s literally a replica of America. Central Park? They put it on the ship. Royal Promenade? On the ship. Right? Even a carousel is onboard. Americans travel to Europe, get off the ship and go— (*&^@!^^*$(!) “Whoa, so scary! So scary!” “I better head back.” Back to the ship. “Ah, America feels safe.” So they don’t really need to leave the country. They’re fine staying on the ship. No— We like going to other places to enjoy America. I know they always complain— “Why so many languages?” “Should just stick to English.” But once they get off— )$&!*@&^ “So scary!” Back on the ship! Even if you’re Filipino— at least you speak English. That’s comforting. It’s 5 PM now. We just ate and took a walk… That seafood place—knocked us out. Not lobster… Seafood restaurant, seriously lethal. Lethal, I tell you. You pass out after eating. Alright, let’s take a walk first. Just wanna say— This is Elevator A. It’s huge. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine. Nine floor tiles. Let’s go. Stand by me. (The monk) (Get it? Go wash up.) (Stan, buy me) (QBao films this every day but hasn’t eaten it once.) (Not enough stomach space?) Kinda feels like we’re living too good. Eat, sleep, repeat. And drink coffee. We’ll be disembarking in a few days. I don’t wanna get off, I don’t wanna leave. Someone made a short video— no one told me— how depressing it is to disembark. Seriously. That disembarkation day hits hard. You have to face real-world prices again. (Here’s a panoramic shot of Pearl Cafe.) It’s quiet outside too. And barely any wind. Of course—this whole thing blocks it. Last time I saw a waterfront path like this… with such a chill and open vibe… was on Virgin Voyages. Then we came over and found— this area’s actually for service dogs to relieve themselves. Where are you taking us? The ship’s aft is really pretty. This is the very back of the ship. Running with this view… Super chill. Love it. Perfect place to walk off a heavy meal. Do ten laps or so— then eat some more. Mini buffet. There are two kinds of trays. (Are you really going to visit this many restaurants every day?) This dish is called “Three Little Pigs.” What? Help yourself. Should we check out the big buffet? Piggy! Somehow I ended up following this person in. So exciting and nerve-racking! What now? So scary. This is intense. What’s everyone lining up for? There’s a place called Surfside Bites. It’s the snack bar in this area. Kind of like the one upstairs. We still haven’t tried it. Let’s check it out. They have main dishes and desserts. Let’s start with the popcorn chicken. This pack is huge. This ship, Icon of the Seas, really understands what kids and parents want. You don’t need to go far— all the kid-friendly food is right here. Everyone’s getting burgers and fries. But you know, when we were exploring earlier, we saw lots of lobster at the restaurants.
(When did that happen?) Everyone’s eating lobster! I want burgers, I want burgers! FYI, Surfside Bites is only open until 6 PM. Popcorn chicken. Let’s try it. Given it’s American-style, this must be chicken breast. It’d be even better with ketchup. The churros only come with 4 sticks. They’re small, but pretty good. Oh! They’re hot. Crispy—super crunchy. This one’s good. Maybe some chocolate sauce? No need. Ice cream! So American-sweet. It’s covered in sugar. Try it! Flamingo. What is this guy doing again? Let’s go. He’s taking my photo. Kati roll.
(No idea what that means.) Look behind you. There’s so much! What did you get? Didn’t you say no more buffet rounds? Little bites are fine, come on. They keep refilling nonstop. Wahaha! How many are we eating today? One each… one each. Sure. So that’s four total. Just some casual bites. We’ll get more if that’s not enough. (Clarifying: clarified butter is essential.) Jalebi.
(Indian sweet) This is the Indian one… Which one? The one made by swirling batter like this… You’ll see 5-finger swirl marks. hello hello hello Why’s everyone lining up? See for yourself. There’s lobster everywhere. No shortage at all, okay? They’re just afraid you *won’t* eat it. Feels like this ship is overflowing with lobster. Post your pics on Facebook! (Side note: today’s restaurant theme is Indian.) Remember the curry shrimp? Indian cuisine—makes sense.
Vada Pav. That Indian burger. What’s an Indian burger? Wanna explain? It’s a fried mashed potato ball in a bun. Delicious! Tandoori chicken. Pickled spiced mango. Great lighting, great mood, and great food. Somehow we’re eating even more shrimp again. So tired. It’s like I’ve been dealing with shrimp all day. You’re eating again today. Dinner in the main dining room. That’s probably 5 in one day. The Lobster Terminator. I’ve mastered the art. What? You don’t need to film everything. The shrimp-eating moment is essential! Even if it’s all-you-can-eat, we still shouldn’t waste. Gotta clean the shells completely. Let’s taste it. Let’s see what this little shrimp tastes like. Compared to day one boarding… Ah! It brings back embarkation memories. Ah man. Just keep eating, it’s so good. It’s like achieving lobster freedom. Let me have some shrimps too! This is what cruise shrimp life is like. Honestly, Indian food smells amazing. Mm-hmm. Tastes really good. Now it’s the 7 PM show. No reservation. Effecters
(self-made Avengers) Got a seat up front today. Brought our own dessert too. Hahaha. Popcorn. Both sweet and savory. no flash photography (This musical introduces the characters.) (The stage effects are pretty good.) (Royal Caribbean really nails the shows.) (This is a clone.) Not bad. Kind of like a comic-book-style musical. Like a superhero version. Almost feels like a mini movie. Anyway, it was really exciting. The key moment was— At one point something flew over his head! He asked me what I was filming. I said it flew right over your head! There was even a drone. That part was super cool. Whoa~ See for yourself. Like seriously… do other Royal ships have this? (My first time here.) The point is— Don’t miss *any* of their shows. Absolutely amazing. Super wow. It’s 8:20 PM. Once again, time to put on our best outfits. Take a look. This *is* my best outfit. We’re heading to the family version of the Color Party. The 5-year-old is going to the kids’ version. He’s already over there. Storytime’s about to start. Hahaha. He’s headed down too. Every night at 8:30 sharp— Bedtime stories. So kids go to sleep by 9. rezolution dance party Pay attention to this last bit— highly recommend wearing white 5 minutes late. But not bad. Let’s head down. (This empty-looking scene…) The kids’ energy level seems low. Yeah, really. I think I’ll come back after 10. Some moms here— They’re treating this like a stage show. A whole row of parents just sitting there watching. Like… what are they doing? Anyway, I’ll come back at 10. Time for dinner. (Such a cute big pearl.) you have a good day? relaxing? yeah eat too much no problem chef’s recommendation Want to tell them the key to your order just now? My whole goal here is to make you gain weight. If you lose weight— Then I’ve failed my mission. Hahaha. So how many lobsters can we get? He said—
Let me tell you. We don’t charge for the second lobster. Order as many as you want. as much as you want So we’re skipping Hooked for lunch today? Dinner will be enough. We’ll see what happens later. Alright. Let’s go check it out. (Chef parade) Pretty cool. Just a short little runway show. A flash mob. One minute. Eh—less than a minute. 20 seconds. Cesar salad. And baked onion soup. Alright. Yours looks so good. (Looks very solid.) That’s some thick cheese. Overflowing! Is it salty? Western soup, Western soup. A bit salty. But the onion flavor is strong. Not bad. Oh. I think it’s pretty good. Not as salty as expected. Because normally I think these onion soups— Foreign soups are super salty. But this one is alright. And it has the fragrance of bread and cheese. Approved. (QBao goes straight for two lobsters) Thank you. (Let me know if it’s not enough) Thank you. Bon appetit. Lobster kind of day. What’s it like to eat lobster all day? Surf and turf. He said eat as much as you want. I think this combo is just right. Just enough to fill the gaps. What’s up with your potato? Actually, I really like baked potatoes. If I feel it’s not enough— Haha. There’s always the buffet. Too much lobster today, don’t need to look at it anymore. Not even a glance? Not even a peek? Try my New York strip. I had your New York strip on day one. Was it good? Yeah, it was good. If it’s good, just keep eating it. Is that butter? Yup—straight-up butter. Isn’t that too much? Bwahahaha. Should be okay. I’m telling you— Not many people ordered steak tonight. So it’s extra good. It’s probably special made. Ayo. Smells amazing—so fragrant. So tender. Here, have a bite. Oops—sorry. But I can still eat it too. This doneness is perfect. Oh wow—juices dripping. (Being dramatic) Oh no. Oops, lobster again. Someone said there’s too much lobster footage. Not sure what to do about it. If you think we’re being too over the top with this— Or don’t want to see so much lobster— Think it’s no big deal— Feel free to file a complaint. Then come try this cruise yourself! Ayo. (Looks like you’re struggling to cut that) Need help? Nah. Brute force method. I’m taking the whole thing off. Look at this. Sorry— It’s shown up too many times today. The lobster in the main dining room is whole. Not bad, right? Feeling hungry? Dip it in some clarified butter. So glossy and shiny. Good service. But may I know first of all what this is? Microphone. Ah, ah. So the sound comes out so clear. Yeah, transmitter and receiver. Wow. Say hello. Hi, my name is Noada. I’m all the way from Bali, Indonesia. Hahaha. So I’m considered the best waiter in Royal Caribbean. Best waiter! Chocolate. Wow. Thank you. Mine’s hot chocolate. Are you enjoying your dessert? (Baked Alaska) (Plainly speaking: Ice cream cake) The best service in the main dining room. 10:40 PM We’re back at the ice skating rink again. Absolute Zero. Here to check out the adults-only party. Not sure what it’ll be like? There are a lot of spectators too. Yeah… but not many people here. (Shorty Kong) Nice and cool—there’s a blower. (Enjoying it like a pro) (Songs with built-in commands are super trendy lately) (Jumping and spinning in the back) Feels like senior aerobics. Hahahahaha. (Clearing the dance floor) (Watch the couple in the back) (She even asked her husband to take a look) I gotta say, it’s a little different from what I expected. Despacito
(The most-viewed song on YouTube) This song sounds familiar. Alright—honestly, the DJ’s music choices are a bit… Weird. (Laughing to the point of collapse) (Time for some lemon water tonight) That’s it. I feel like karaoke is super popular. Tonight’s the last night for karaoke. Packed to the brim. Look how many people are here. Even this late, people are still soaking in the pool. Looks refreshing. A little past midnight. Here at the Music Hall. See that? After Hours Nightclub. (The Spanish music carnival was more lit) Feels like it’s just getting started. But there’s no one here. Anyway, just letting you know— There are still things to do late at night. That’s all for today. Good night, everyone. I discovered something important tonight. Look at this paper. Duck tag. Pull it out. (Can’t stop laughing) It says “The Bu Family.” Thanks for the duck. Looks a bit like the first one we found. This is the fifth duck we’ve found. Almost breaking even now. I’m telling you, I placed seven ducks total. Still at a loss. As for Central Park— It’s still an easy place to hide ducks. If you’re into duck hiding, You’ll know where people like to stash them. You’ll start thinking: where can I hide mine? Once you think it through, And figure out the logic, You’ll know exactly where the ducks tend to be. No one’s here. Is this whole island owned by Royal Caribbean? Yeah, it’s a private island. They lease it from the Bahamian government. Arrived at 8 a.m. People already got off the ship. Morning, morning. (Just bear with me—this is your last breakfast shot.) (And as always, QBao loves filming Pearl Cafe.) It’s 9:53 a.m. We’re heading to a place we haven’t filmed yet. It’s only open at certain times. So we have to go now. It’s practically empty here. Not a single kid. Oh wait… one person. This is open skating time. We’re here just to show it on video. Wow, so many people. That was a miscalculation. You need long pants to enter. No shorts allowed. We’re back again. Entry by color group. We’re in the 10 a.m. group.
So we’re next. Hello! You can change into skates here. Twelve, I think. All changed! Alrighty! This is hilarious. Just walk slowly over there. Hold the wall. So slippery! (It’s been forever since I skated.) Be careful. I’m too scared to move. (Got a skating aid.) Nice! Hold onto this. (A personal demonstration.) Go, go! I can’t… (Almost wiped out.) (This was my best skating moment.) Back to full strength! Not fun. Was it fun? Yeah! How often do you get to wear ice skates in Taiwan? Never, right? And it’s free. I feel like I’m mowing the lawn. Hahaha! Pretty much the same idea. It’s 11 a.m. now. We’re heading to CocoCay after regrouping. First, let’s grab some towels. CocoCay Perfect Day! Look at that guy. A lot of people are just getting off the ship now. Of course! There’s fun stuff onboard too.
What’s that smell? Smells like happiness. Oh yeah! It looks so colorful! Wow! My screen’s not wide enough. Only capturing a tiny corner of it. Suddenly your insulated bag feels super useful. Of course! It’s got cold drinks inside too. Everything looks so clear once you walk a bit farther. Where should we go first? Let’s just explore. This place is huge. Let’s wander around. Food here is free. Free food on the ship, and free food here too. That water park in the back costs money. We’re poor, can’t afford that. We’ll just go to the free spots. That means no rides. Cry cry. That person really wants to go play. At least the splash pad outside the entrance should be free, right? Let me get splashed too! I really wanna go in. There’s a hole there—
Must be a slide. Captain Jack’s! This area’s called Splashaway Bay. It’s built really well inside. What, hungry already? Nah. Just filming. You can see we came from over there. This is the central area. We just passed Splashaway Bay — that’s for kids. Here we are now. There’s a huge freshwater pool here. Let’s check this area out first. This is the water park. This is Chill Island. This Hideaway… This area requires payment too. So where else can we go? We can still go here, here, and here. Okay! Let’s go. Or do you want to check the food first? We can pass by. Are you that much of a pig? You’re the pig! Who ate tons of melon this morning? Piggy. Whoa—so many people. The ground’s still sand. It’s real sand. There’s a clock here. It’s 11:27 now. The clock’s not accurate. Let’s move on. It’s huge! Brownies! (The food here obviously can’t compare to what’s on the ship.) (It’s mostly light bites and salads.) (Burgers, hot dogs, and burritos.) I noticed there are actually tons of options here. Let me take another look. You didn’t get anything? We just got here, didn’t we? Alright then. hello which flavour? Twist Twist wow thank you thank you It’s huge! The ice cream here tastes better than the ship’s. You sure? Haha. I walked around— This whole area is huge. But there are lots of repeat food options. At least you don’t have to crowd in one place. Mainly Mexican food. There are handwashing stations everywhere. washy washy Super convenient. Oasis Lagoon Oasis Lagoon. The largest freshwater pool in the Caribbean. Take a look. Whoa ha ha ha. It’s massive! Look at that! Amazing. There are loungers a bit inside. It’s fine here though. What do you mean “inside”—second row is fine! Got our cat-shaped clips ready. Now we don’t have to worry about towels flying off. Brought our own drinks. So cold! There’s a little table in the middle of the pool. (People are crowding around the swim-up bar.) You can stay far away from others. (It’s deeper over here—QBao’s freaking out.) There’s even a photographer in here! He won’t let you go. Want to capture the perfect memory? We’ve got you. icon
(Photographers only shoot Icon guests) So chill. They know how to do business! Next stop. Heading toward Coco Beach Club. (This place looks super fun.) This is pool soccer. What? Pool soccer—kicking with your feet. There’s actually a lot to do here. For adults. Is this like naval flag or something? Oh! So beautiful. (Big-headed bird.) It flew away. Looks like a stork. Come on. Let’s get some fake-candid shots. Super shallow. So cold—freezing cold! Quick question—those cabanas cost money, right? Yeah, a few hundred bucks a day. Look, someone’s snorkeling over there! You can bring your own snorkel gear here too. We were gonna bring ours. Maldives is basically like this too, right? Haha. Pretty much. The colors are dreamy. Like a painting. Even though it’s a bit cloudy today, and windy too. Still amazing. I have a question. Is this island man-made? Or was it always here and Royal Caribbean just leased it and spruced it up a bit? The ground feels kinda rough to walk on. But the sandy parts are super fine. Look how chill that person is floating. Do people bring their own floats? Not the big ones. Might block the lifeguard’s view. See the names on those cabanas? Private cabanas. And that one too. (So pricey.) Is this the prettiest spot? Nope. There are plenty of places here. This is the windward side. It’s called Breezy Bay. I just spotted a snack shack. Go check it out for everyone! Little snack hut. Free water here too. And some fruits and salad. What do you want to eat? They have sandwiches, salad, and desserts. (What’s the handsome guy eating today?) Mozzarella sticks. Sticks, you want dressing? They even have a kid-height counter. So convenient for kids to order. Hehe~ I’m taller than you now. So thoughtful. Gracias. (thank you) Nice to meet you. Thank you, yeah. (thanks a lot) Today’s lunch. Just some snacks. Grabbed some fries. Not bad. There’s a drink station behind too. Totally free, all you can drink. On this island, it’s just like being on the ship. So good, seriously delicious. Heard this one’s the most popular. Look at that cheese pull. Mmm—so good. Yummy! This sauce is even better than ketchup. For real. They’ve specially mixed it. And you can even add ice yourself. Yup. Taiwan doesn’t even have Water Park anymore, but here I am living it up. Oops— Our viewers are global now. Oh sorry. Perfect vacation.
Perfect Day at CocoCay. The chicken sandwich was better than expected. Even better with pickles. Ugh, I hate pickles—minus points. Oh my god, oh my god! So many of them! Where did all these birds come from? Follow me! I’m curious too! Wait… why are there so many? Suddenly the weather turned. Oh wow— Caribbean weather, huh? I’m taking shelter. Still munching on fries and sipping drinks. Truly living in the moment. You never know what’s coming next. Still raining. Thought I’d go to the food stand— but it’s packed,
everyone’s hiding from the rain. Don’t think you can even get in. It looks so cool. It’s eating dirt. The rain has stopped again. Everyone’s back in the water. That was fast. (Seagulls are still flying) (Wandering off to the side) It’s a bit breezy here. No one’s renting jet skis. You need a license. You can rent all kinds of equipment here. I saw that big bird again. Wait, no. Oh~ I see it now. Oh wow. It really is huge. Here’s another beach area. Look at those two. Hey. They think you’re weird. A little souvenir shop. So much stuff. Lying down? I’ve landed. Feet up! So comfy. (Camera bumped into a tree) Let’s go check out the ship. Giant CocoCay chair! Look… hermit crab! And a tiny one too. So fast! Turns out there’s an entrance fee to go in. So cold! Hey. I’ll hit you later. So freezing. No age limit though. It says so there. I’m just worried they’ll kick you out. Let’s go up from the bottom. That spot over there is great for photos. Island buggies. Wanna take one from the station? Beach strollers! Speeding down the beach! They’ve got beach wheelchairs too. We got on the cart! That was fast! Bye bye! (The view was amazing — will show full ride next time) Riding back now. (Making new friends) Still gorgeous. Next photo spot. Even though it rained a lot today, it was still a perfect day. It was fun and interesting. We didn’t hit all the spots, but I’m sure we’ll come back next time. It’s a great private island. Super fun. Last stop, right here. Grabbing some final snacks. Looks like this is a drink bar? But there’s live music too. À la carte (extra charge). What is this? (So many musical games to play) (That’s it — time to head back to the ship) (One last look at the big ship) So close. Most ships are built upright. Some are even inward-sloping. But ours bulges out… and then bulges again. Back onboard means party time. Okay, it’s 45 past now. Getting changed. Time for the sail away party! Hola Look. The water slides have different slopes. That big one is massive. This one’s super slim. Must be single rider only. CocoCay. (Taking a peek at the ship next to us) (Royal Caribbean Voyager of the Seas) What’s that one in the distance? Looks like it’s a Carnival island. Seems like every cruise line has a private island here. Without one in the Bahamas, how can you even run a cruise line? Grabbing a quick bite. This one’s good. Do you know how much food like this costs elsewhere? (It’s free here.) Tastes like free. There are snacks like this everywhere on the ship. You won’t go hungry. Eat whenever you want. So satisfying. There are five more snack spots up ahead. I think we’ve only tried two so far. Hold on. OMG, I found him. Finally ran into him. He was actually hiding near the elevator. You’re eating it now? That looks super high-calorie. This one’s FETA Mediterranean. Mediterranean feta cheese. You can choose rice, lettuce, or flatbread. Then pick pork, chicken, or falafel. lettuce chicken? pork? (A little bit of everything.) This bowl is enough to fill you up. hot sauce thank you thank you Hahaha That’s a huge bowl. Third out of five Aquadome Market restaurants. Mac and cheese—Americans’ favorite cheesy pasta. I asked which one’s the best. He said bacon. Let’s see if he’s right. Not that hot. The bacon flavor is pretty strong. Maybe I just don’t get Americans. To me, this dish… …scores a 6.27. The one I picked looks really loaded. Super hearty. Americans eat a whole bowl of veggies like this. Hmm. Not bad. Nice texture. Crunchy. Better than yours. Wait a sec. Found something else! I found a duck today! Hidden in the elevator. (The video’s almost over—don’t forget to like!) What? What? What!! Ahahaha! It’s so tiny! Yeah! mini duck (Bystanders curious what that is.) Can’t stop laughing. Around dusk, people just chill back on the ship. Some still haven’t given out their ducks. It’s 6 p.m. If you’re duck hunting, 6 p.m. is prime time. Didn’t realize this area already closed. I never got a chance to soak here. It’s all little kids now. Parents can join too. No problem. All ages. How old are you? Look at that dummy. That mannequin on deck 14. Totally fake photo op. Spotted a mini buffet, couldn’t help but check it out. Braise lamb. (Can you tell it’s shaped like an animal?) (They’ve got cakes and desserts too.) Ran into him again. (This time in the central elevator lobby.) Second time. I always thought he’d be inside the elevator. Turns out he moves around. He’s not fixed in one spot. Pretty cool that you can just run into him. I’ve decided to leave a duck on him. Hey. Duck! Hahaha byebye. The fun in duck hunting is the joy of finding and hiding them. Let the next person find it. Oh, there’s another one performing! (Did you forget? We saw him on day one!) This is just so romantic. We’ve been so lucky today. All these little surprises make me so happy. Feeling joyful. I can’t help it. The pasta station is still packed. I mixed all three kinds together. Salmon. The fish looks pretty good. Flounder. Pork. There’s more downstairs. Why are you smiling so hard? You’re not gonna try the souvlaki? Lamb chops. I just realized… They had mint jelly last time too. (The giant strawberries are back!) I thought they were fake. They’re real. (ice sculpture)
It’s a fish! (This is making me so hungry.) (This is a type of Indian cheese.) I was thinking… Maybe it was just some kind of skewer. But what was it? Beef tenderloin on a skewer! Basically, Royal doesn’t want you to go hungry. It’s like your grandma’s cooking. This tastes kinda interesting. A weird but fun flavor combo. (They even have baklava!) (It’s the last day—cheering for the chefs over the speakers.) (Don’t miss it if you walk by!) (They even have a chocolate fountain!) Why’d you grab such a big bowl? This is called a chocolate skewer. Melon… you’re eating melon again? Wahaha! You tricked me into eating another one. It’s so heavy. Ugh—so good though! It turned kinda sweet and tangy. They gave so much chocolate. You just wanted the chocolate, huh? Better scrape it clean! (Aww, it’s the sailor dog!) I finally ran into her! Can’t believe it’s the last day and all my wishes came true. I was just thinking… how come I hadn’t seen the sailor dog? And the piano guy too! But now I’ve seen both! And I even found another duck today. So happy. 8:30 PM Time to eat. Just eating non-stop. Raining Rainy a little bit, yeah. I was there until eleven thirty, no rain! Oh that smells so good. The menu says giant asparagus. This… Smells really good. Not bad at all. They probably spent the asparagus budget on lobster. (Busted my gut!) Greek salad. Just extra salad, please. No need for the bread, it’s unnecessary. It’s rare to see such big feet! Gotta mention it. Lamb shank means the lower leg. That’s the shank meat. Move, move. What’s that? Pearl onions. Let’s see how tender it is. Oh! That’s soft — no knife needed. Just pull it apart. Shank meat always has tendons. So it’s chewy, bouncy, soft, and tender. Delicious, right? Yep. Classic New York strip. Medium, medium-rare. Yours doesn’t have the crown mark? Not the same as day one. Dip it in my chimichurri sauce. Still tastes great. Filet mignon upstairs, New York strip downstairs. Beef on beef! Beef overload. Crème brûlée. (The ones with caramel on top always end up eaten by a certain someone.) (This one looks like jelly.) I just realized something. How do you even grab this? Did someone drop it down there? That’s way too hard to reach! I’ll push it down. You catch it downstairs. Found another duck today! So cute. Hahaha This one’s the hardest to get so far. Okay, it’s now 10:07 PM. Quick update: When we came back this afternoon, luggage tags were already in the room. Two pieces per person. We got 4 tags total. Also info for disembarkation time and procedures. And a gratuity envelope. Give what you can. This one’s for the stateroom attendant? Yep. (Another adult comedy show!) Make it sound good, you know. When’s the last time you heard a Black dude sing that song, man? Hahaha Pizza’s super popular. Everyone’s scarfing it down on the last day. Let’s go—eat that pizza! Gotta indulge… once you disembark, it costs money! (Adult games incoming… kids please exit, thank you.) It’s packed in here! Alright this is very exciting. Hey! (Pull the ping pong ball out from the other pant leg.) Left right left right Alright (Undescribable moves) Too much, too much! Alright, alright! (Actually kinda fun!) What were you gonna tell me? Ah! (Found another one!) Golden lion duck! One more! He thought he could leave it for the next group… Nope. Big thanks to the Tunner family. Thank you so much! We collected 8 ducks in total.
(Wait… probably 9!) 7:40 in the morning We have to leave the room by 8 at the latest. The buffet only runs until 8:30 today. It started at 5:30. Because new guests are coming on at 10. Super early. So many people. This is the most chaotic day. There are actually lots of breakfast options. But the buffet has the most choices. Greedy folks like us… You’re such a pig. Please call him “Fat Buddy.” Okay, it’s 8:31 now. It’s our turn to disembark. Any final thoughts before getting off? If the budget allows… Just book Icon of the Seas. Hahaha. It’s not perfect, But there’s really not much to complain about. If I had to nitpick, There are just too many dining spots. So the buffet only does three main meals. It closes in between. And nothing after 10 PM. So late-night snack lovers are out of luck. But you can still grab pizza. Right, there’s pizza and the Pearl Cafe. Places that still offer snacks. So just adjust your habits a bit, And you’ll still enjoy the cruise. Honestly, We probably ate the most lobster onboard. Hahaha. Lobster and steak. I don’t even know how. It just felt like we were always eating lobster. A little tip: The buffet actually covers 80–90% of the food options. So if you want more freedom, You don’t have to go to the main dining room. You can get most things at the buffet. But of course, you can go enjoy the service in the MDR. Sometimes they do have special dishes. Speaking of food, If you want to dine at a specialty restaurant, Go on Italian Night. Because there might be a gap between Italian and American flavors. They’re kinda far apart. Yeah. We still missed a few places. There was a laser tag game… It was scheduled for day three. You can check the daily planner. That day the skating rink had no events scheduled at all. No shows either. So they melted the ice. Anyway… Honestly, most people won’t be able to do it all. This ship is just too massive. I think by day five I finally started to realize what all is on the ship. Every day I’d feel like, “Oh no, wait, I haven’t checked out this area yet.” Then I’d go exploring. But with the activity schedule… You don’t follow it in order anyway, So you end up missing things. Alright, that’s it—no more talking. Still a great trip. The world’s biggest ship. Bye! So now we…? We can leave now. Is it crowded downstairs? Not really. It’s okay. Next batch boards at 10 AM. They’re crazy efficient. Even customs and baggage pickup were smooth. From swiping my cruise card and leaving the ship to picking up our bags—under two minutes. That’s wild. You know this ship… has thousands onboard. 7,000 people. 7,000 leaving… And another 7,000 coming in. The most jammed part is the taxi line outside. 7,000 leaving…
7,000人出 And another 7,000 coming in.
待會7,000人進 Hahaha, and the most jammed spot is still the taxi queue.
哈哈哈最塞的是外面的進程
