00:00:13.519 --> 00:00:14.560
Hey gang, we're back.
00:00:14.640 --> 00:00:15.599
This is 3P.
00:00:15.759 --> 00:00:21.120
That's right, myself, Captain Jesse, and my co-host, as always, the cruise coach.
00:00:21.359 --> 00:00:23.039
Cruise Coach, how are you doing, buddy?
00:00:23.199 --> 00:00:24.640
Blessed beyond measure, my friend.
00:00:24.719 --> 00:00:25.359
How are you doing?
00:00:25.519 --> 00:00:26.559
Oh, amazing times.
00:00:26.800 --> 00:00:31.120
Uh, welcome back to Space Coast Podcast Studios, home of the Peer Pressure Portcast.
00:00:31.280 --> 00:00:35.920
And with us today, we're uh gonna explore the MSC seashore.
00:00:36.000 --> 00:00:36.640
Is that correct?
00:00:36.880 --> 00:00:39.520
Yes, it is MSC Mazy.
00:00:40.159 --> 00:00:40.799
Is it right?
00:00:41.759 --> 00:00:52.000
Well, we look forward to more about MSC as a cruise line and the experience Ocean K, the wonders, the highlights, the food reviews, all of it.
00:00:52.240 --> 00:00:56.799
Um real quick, just for a little bit of a little tease.
00:00:57.200 --> 00:00:58.560
Ooh, yeah.
00:00:58.960 --> 00:01:01.520
A little bit of sushi belt right there.
00:01:01.920 --> 00:01:02.719
Sushi belt.
00:01:02.960 --> 00:01:04.640
Looping for all of our viewers.
00:01:04.799 --> 00:01:07.439
If you haven't uh seen us before, thank you so much for tuning in.
00:01:07.680 --> 00:01:08.319
You're on YouTube.
00:01:08.640 --> 00:01:10.719
You can subscribe, comment, share.
00:01:10.959 --> 00:01:12.400
Uh we love the comments, actually.
00:01:12.480 --> 00:01:13.840
We need more of them, don't you agree?
00:01:14.239 --> 00:01:14.640
Totally.
00:01:14.719 --> 00:01:14.879
Yeah.
00:01:15.040 --> 00:01:20.480
Again, you see something that kind of triggers your cruise tastic mindset, simply comment.
00:01:20.560 --> 00:01:23.599
We'd love to and we guarantee a response back.
00:01:24.159 --> 00:01:24.719
That's right.
00:01:24.959 --> 00:01:26.799
We aim to reply to everything.
00:01:26.959 --> 00:01:31.599
So there's no uh question too silly except the question that wasn't asked, right?
00:01:31.840 --> 00:01:35.280
So let's keep uh conversation going after the show.
00:01:35.439 --> 00:01:36.400
Uh again, welcome.
00:01:36.480 --> 00:01:37.519
Let's uh dive right in.
00:01:37.599 --> 00:01:38.079
What do you say?
00:01:38.239 --> 00:01:38.640
Here we go.
00:01:38.799 --> 00:01:43.519
A little vibe show from Port Canaveral, aka the People's Port.
00:01:44.239 --> 00:01:45.920
What's up, Vacation Nation?
00:01:46.000 --> 00:01:50.079
Again, this is your boy the cruise coach, and we are about to have a vibe show.
00:01:50.239 --> 00:02:00.400
Port Canaveral, like we said, aka the People's Port, MSc Seashore, the first seaside Evo class ship ever.
00:02:01.120 --> 00:02:06.400
So, what you see here is the MSC Seashore on Ocean K.
00:02:07.120 --> 00:02:12.400
And again, we were gonna come, we were gonna come into this episode saying, here's the hint.
00:02:12.639 --> 00:02:17.919
Right, Sally sold seashells by the ding ding ding seashore.
00:02:18.159 --> 00:02:18.800
There you go.
00:02:18.960 --> 00:02:23.360
So, again, a little play on words, MSC Seashore 2021.
00:02:23.680 --> 00:02:43.919
So two years newer than the MSC Grandioso, which we did a vibe show on 170,000 in gross tonnage, 5,877 total passengers, 4,540 at double capacity, and approximately 2,800 staterooms.
00:02:44.080 --> 00:02:46.719
Here's the best part of the MSc seashore, Captain Jesse.
00:02:46.960 --> 00:02:47.599
What's up?
00:02:47.919 --> 00:02:58.879
Three, four, or seven nights, uh huh, and certain times of the year you might also find a 10, 11, or 14 night.
00:02:59.840 --> 00:03:02.479
But you're primarily going to see the three, four, or sevens.
00:03:02.719 --> 00:03:09.439
So you're gonna have a Sunday to Thursday, a Thursday to Sunday, and then obviously your full sevens.
00:03:09.520 --> 00:03:14.560
Um, but again, this does Western Caribbean, it does the Nassau in Ocean K.
00:03:14.960 --> 00:03:15.599
Try it.
00:03:15.759 --> 00:03:21.919
My honest opinion is if you can find a four night that stays overnight at Ocean K, it's phenomenal.
00:03:22.080 --> 00:03:23.280
Lighthouse show.
00:03:23.439 --> 00:03:25.680
Uh, again, New York themed.
00:03:25.759 --> 00:03:36.159
And so when you think seashore, the best seashore there is, obviously, you think of New England, and everywhere you go on the ship, it's got that New York feel.
00:03:36.400 --> 00:03:37.680
Absolutely stunning.
00:03:37.919 --> 00:03:38.639
I like that.
00:03:38.800 --> 00:03:40.240
New York theme is a great theme.
00:03:40.400 --> 00:03:40.719
Yep.
00:03:40.879 --> 00:03:42.479
So even the main dining room, right?
00:03:42.560 --> 00:03:46.479
You're gonna have your Fifth Ave, your Tribeca, your Central Park, and your Manhattan.
00:03:46.800 --> 00:03:52.400
Obviously, you have access to the buffet and also uh room service at all times as well.
00:03:53.039 --> 00:03:53.680
Ideal.
00:03:53.919 --> 00:03:58.319
And what you're gonna see, and we're gonna get into it momentarily, the specialty dining.
00:03:58.400 --> 00:04:01.280
And that's probably the first opportunity we would say.
00:04:01.439 --> 00:04:07.039
Um, and before we get into that, we are actually first stumped the captain.
00:04:07.360 --> 00:04:07.680
Here we go.
00:04:07.919 --> 00:04:09.439
What stumped the captain already?
00:04:09.680 --> 00:04:13.840
Is this picture done from land or is it done from somewhere else?
00:04:14.080 --> 00:04:18.639
Possibly an obstacle or that's definitely not from land.
00:04:18.800 --> 00:04:19.360
There you go.
00:04:19.439 --> 00:04:21.519
I was not in a hot air balloon.
00:04:21.680 --> 00:04:23.519
No, I was Long Island.
00:04:23.759 --> 00:04:25.839
I was in a lighthouse.
00:04:26.079 --> 00:04:26.879
That's right.
00:04:27.279 --> 00:04:31.120
And uh Ocean K has one of the most luxurious lighthouses.
00:04:31.439 --> 00:04:36.160
And probably one
Load full transcript
of the best views you can get of Ocean K is from the aft of the ship.
00:04:36.399 --> 00:04:41.519
What's awesome about this ship is it goes thin, fat to thin.
00:04:41.680 --> 00:04:44.160
This is the back half of the ship, so this is the aft.
00:04:44.240 --> 00:04:47.120
And what do you notice on the bottom part of the aft?
00:04:47.839 --> 00:04:50.480
Um the bottom part, well, it's got an infinity pool.
00:04:50.720 --> 00:04:51.519
Two infinity pools.
00:04:51.600 --> 00:04:52.399
Oh, yeah, side by side.
00:04:52.560 --> 00:04:58.800
You have two infinity pools, and then right by my picture, you're gonna see the brand new red cactus barbecue joint.
00:04:58.959 --> 00:05:03.040
So there it is, right there, uh barbecue, top notch.
00:05:03.279 --> 00:05:08.480
And and I'm not saying just ribs, the brisket was MSC mazing.
00:05:08.720 --> 00:05:09.600
It was phenomenal.
00:05:09.680 --> 00:05:12.000
You had cornbread, you had desserts.
00:05:12.240 --> 00:05:19.439
So, based on that, again, now here's what I will say: the hours of operation was only from like a 12 to 3.
00:05:20.000 --> 00:05:24.079
So the first day it was not open, the second and the third, it was open.
00:05:24.160 --> 00:05:31.120
We did a three night, we did a Thursday to Sunday, and it was MSc amazing.
00:05:31.199 --> 00:05:33.600
You're gonna hear that so many times throughout this episode.
00:05:34.240 --> 00:05:35.279
All right, moving on.
00:05:35.439 --> 00:05:37.920
Oh, this is uh the the aft uh so there you go.
00:05:38.000 --> 00:05:53.759
That's so if if we were to turn around and you're taking a picture almost where the the rib spot's gonna be, that's where you have, and I believe it's like 21, they say 21 seats of occupancy on both sides, but it's a true infinity pool.
00:05:53.839 --> 00:05:58.480
So, like you'd see on the icon classes from Royal Caribbean, it's overlooking the aft.
00:05:58.560 --> 00:06:03.680
That's the beautiful and stunning uh Port Canaveral, aka the People's Port, right there.
00:06:03.920 --> 00:06:17.600
And from the top, which is you will see actually, we don't have a video of it, but the bridge of size looks directly down from deck 16 to deck eight, and again, this is on hands down our favorite deck.
00:06:17.680 --> 00:06:19.839
You're gonna see so many things we're gonna talk about.
00:06:19.920 --> 00:06:24.879
So, hands down, we would say deck eight is our favorite deck on this seashore ship.
00:06:25.040 --> 00:06:25.839
You've heard it here.
00:06:26.000 --> 00:06:26.560
Deck eight.
00:06:26.639 --> 00:06:27.600
All right, moving okay.
00:06:27.680 --> 00:06:28.319
Now we're inside.
00:06:28.480 --> 00:06:29.279
So we're inside.
00:06:29.360 --> 00:06:31.680
So, you know, we had a unique opportunity.
00:06:31.839 --> 00:06:40.079
You obviously you have your standard rooms, you have your interior, you have your ocean view, you have your balconies, you have your suites, and you have your yacht club.
00:06:40.319 --> 00:06:44.319
But this is a unique um ocean view balcony.
00:06:44.720 --> 00:06:46.959
So this is a category BA.
00:06:47.199 --> 00:06:47.519
Okay.
00:06:47.680 --> 00:06:55.519
Okay, and category BA is basically your um uh it's gonna be your array suite.
00:06:55.759 --> 00:07:02.879
So in your array suite right there, you have access to the uh spas as well.
00:07:03.279 --> 00:07:11.920
And then you're overlooking, and the cool part is the the actual um balcony here is about the size of an interior room.
00:07:12.560 --> 00:07:15.839
So you're still gonna see uh a few of the decks as well.
00:07:16.000 --> 00:07:26.639
So we're on deck nine, so we're overlooking deck eight, like we just talked about, and then you also have the uh if you look straight down from where we are right there, is you'll see the sports bar.
00:07:26.720 --> 00:07:29.120
And hands down, you're gonna see a still shot.
00:07:29.199 --> 00:07:35.839
It was our favorite sports bar of any ship that we've ever been on, possibly one of our favorite sports bars we've ever walked into.
00:07:36.000 --> 00:07:37.279
Oh wow, that says a lot.
00:07:37.439 --> 00:07:38.160
Yeah, definitely.
00:07:38.319 --> 00:07:39.839
And there's there's some of the art, right?
00:07:39.920 --> 00:07:52.000
You're you're talking uh this was a visually stimulating ship from top to bottom, so it's not like your normal, you know, no disrespect, but Carnival has nothing on this.
00:07:52.160 --> 00:07:57.360
Uh MSC has promised by 2020 35 35 ships.
00:07:57.600 --> 00:08:05.360
Most of those are gonna be in this world class, but it's hands down one of our new favorite uh spots.
00:08:05.519 --> 00:08:07.279
I mean, where else are you gonna get?
00:08:07.360 --> 00:08:11.120
And I'm gonna tell you right now, we paid, we paid for ours.
00:08:11.360 --> 00:08:16.959
Um you're talking about five and change when it comes down to the room.
00:08:17.600 --> 00:08:20.000
Obviously, you're gonna pay extra when it comes.
00:08:20.079 --> 00:08:24.480
We did specialty dining, so you're gonna see all the specialty dining, and even that's a deal, right?
00:08:24.639 --> 00:08:28.399
We don't really like to talk deals because that's a it's a made-up word in the industry.
00:08:28.560 --> 00:08:31.519
We talk great rates and we talk about opportunities.
00:08:31.839 --> 00:08:38.240
And uh again, we were able to get specialtin for 122 bucks for three specialty dining meals.
00:08:38.399 --> 00:08:46.720
We went ahead and did uh the butcher's cut in the middle, and then we pretty much started and finished with the hibachi.
00:08:46.799 --> 00:08:51.919
And if you know me, I'm a Japanese uh hibachi tempanyaki lover.
00:08:52.559 --> 00:08:53.279
Likewise, right?
00:08:53.519 --> 00:08:55.039
That's that's my my happy place.
00:08:55.279 --> 00:08:58.480
And the best part was it was front loaded with sushi.
00:08:59.440 --> 00:09:01.919
So you're gonna see some stuff like that as well.
00:09:02.159 --> 00:09:03.840
Alright, well, let's jump back in.
00:09:04.000 --> 00:09:04.799
Uh let's see.
00:09:05.039 --> 00:09:07.600
Another vibe I love the vibe show idea, right?
00:09:07.759 --> 00:09:09.440
So yeah, it's so different.
00:09:09.759 --> 00:09:10.879
And so, okay.
00:09:11.120 --> 00:09:11.919
So there we go.
00:09:12.000 --> 00:09:15.679
That is hands down, probably one of the best steakhouses we've ever been in.
00:09:15.759 --> 00:09:16.960
It's called the Butcher's Cut.
00:09:17.039 --> 00:09:27.120
Now, here's the one thing we would have preferred to do Butcher's Cut to start and end with the hibachi in the middle, but with the package, you can only do the butcher's cut by itself.
00:09:27.360 --> 00:09:30.720
Um, you know, or you can a la carte this, so you can go ahead.
00:09:30.879 --> 00:09:34.879
This, I believe, just a standard ticket is about 60 bucks per sailor.
00:09:35.279 --> 00:09:42.000
So you figure we paid half, so 122, you divide that in three, so we only paid 40 about 40 bucks to go here.
00:09:42.240 --> 00:09:42.879
Wow.
00:09:43.120 --> 00:09:46.399
And it was an amazing meal.
00:09:46.559 --> 00:09:47.519
You're gonna be about to see it.
00:09:47.600 --> 00:09:49.039
All right, we're gonna we're gonna jump into it.
00:09:49.200 --> 00:09:50.080
So I'm a group.
00:09:50.639 --> 00:09:52.240
So there's there's tons of seating there, right?
00:09:52.399 --> 00:09:54.960
So if you want to look over the edge of the ship, you're able to.
00:09:55.120 --> 00:09:59.039
Obviously, you know, they're gonna try to upsell you with some wine and things of that nature.
00:09:59.120 --> 00:10:02.080
And again, if you like wine with your steak, who doesn't?
00:10:02.159 --> 00:10:04.799
I it wine's not my cup of tea, no pun intended.
00:10:05.279 --> 00:10:17.679
Um, but you know, I was on the ship, I was able to to do a I took my mom on kind of a post-Mother's Day trip with this, and she absolutely loved the filet, but she even loved even more than the fillet.
00:10:17.840 --> 00:10:26.080
It had uh shrimp cocktail, and it was five ginormous shrimp to start, which I don't have a picture of, but you're gonna see so many things right here.
00:10:26.159 --> 00:10:27.120
So there we go.
00:10:27.200 --> 00:10:28.879
So this was the appetizer.
00:10:29.120 --> 00:10:30.960
What do you think that is right there, Jesse?
00:10:31.360 --> 00:10:33.679
Well, those look like uh little sliders, yeah.
00:10:34.000 --> 00:10:35.279
Wagyu sliders.
00:10:35.440 --> 00:10:35.759
Oh.
00:10:36.000 --> 00:10:40.480
So again, you're talking, you know, you're top of top of the line when it comes to beef.
00:10:40.639 --> 00:10:42.159
Uh that you go somewhere.
00:10:42.320 --> 00:10:44.960
Wagyu sliders alone is gonna cost you probably$20 to start.
00:10:45.120 --> 00:10:45.759
Oh, yeah, easy.
00:10:45.919 --> 00:10:49.279
You know, and then we're gonna go ahead and get into there it is.
00:10:49.440 --> 00:10:49.919
Whoa.
00:10:50.240 --> 00:10:51.519
Nine ounce fillet.
00:10:51.759 --> 00:10:52.320
Nine ounce.
00:10:52.639 --> 00:10:55.440
Nine ounce fillet, cooked to perfection.
00:10:55.679 --> 00:10:58.080
Um no other way to put it.
00:10:58.240 --> 00:11:05.679
We we did the seaside back in 2023, and you can do the chef's table and do it this way as well.
00:11:05.840 --> 00:11:09.200
But back then we had a unique opportunity for specialty dining.
00:11:09.279 --> 00:11:16.559
Back then it was a hundred bucks, and you got it while you were on the ship, so it wasn't like this where you prepay it, but you can do one of these for dinner.
00:11:16.799 --> 00:11:26.480
So we did the butcher's cut for dinner, and then for lunch the next day, we did uh the sushi, but they allowed a filet to go in with lunch as well.
00:11:26.559 --> 00:11:33.519
So for a hundred bucks per person, you got a filet for dinner, and then sushi the next day for lunch with another fillet.
00:11:33.759 --> 00:11:34.320
Dang.
00:11:34.559 --> 00:11:42.879
And then you're gonna end it with the lovely lava cake, and that's probably the only thing I'm gonna call lovely in my world is lava cake.
00:11:43.039 --> 00:11:45.840
Uh, and again, it was it was perfect, just enough.
00:11:46.000 --> 00:11:47.360
Uh, so so rich.
00:11:47.519 --> 00:11:48.159
Yeah.
00:11:48.399 --> 00:11:52.320
Yeah, those are always a so that was our middle night meal right there.
00:11:52.639 --> 00:11:53.200
Wow.
00:11:53.440 --> 00:12:01.840
Oh and there's that another that's the that's the other uh complimentary joint chicken uh complementary eatery on board.
00:12:02.080 --> 00:12:07.279
Again, they listened to their sailors, they said, hey, we want to go ahead and have some options available.
00:12:07.360 --> 00:12:08.879
Again, only open 12 to 3.
00:12:09.120 --> 00:12:12.399
So time I would say, hours of operation would be an opportunity.
00:12:12.559 --> 00:12:17.519
But you have three chicken sandwich, three chicken different, three different chicken sandwich types.
00:12:17.600 --> 00:12:17.759
Uh-huh.
00:12:17.919 --> 00:12:22.559
The one I had on had a little bit of uh like sweet mustard, Swiss cheese.
00:12:22.639 --> 00:12:24.080
I I want to even say ham.
00:12:24.240 --> 00:12:24.639
Oh, okay.
00:12:24.799 --> 00:12:27.519
So cordon blue, a little cordon bleu style.
00:12:27.679 --> 00:12:31.279
And then I also had the chicken tenders, and they were phenomenal.
00:12:31.600 --> 00:12:32.799
And tenders, huh?
00:12:32.879 --> 00:12:33.039
Yeah.
00:12:33.200 --> 00:12:35.519
I bet there's a line for that place, though.
00:12:35.840 --> 00:12:55.600
You know, um there wasn't, you just have to be strategic, but I will say it's a grab and go type eatery, so you're able to go there, and then right around the corner is gonna be Pirate's Cove, which we don't have any videos of, but if you are a kid, uh-huh, that's where I would hang out for literally the three straight days.
00:12:55.679 --> 00:12:56.960
Yeah, he might not be allowed in there.
00:12:57.120 --> 00:12:57.679
No way.
00:12:57.840 --> 00:13:02.159
Yeah, but so that's gonna be the Tempanyaki, that's gonna be the hibachi.
00:13:02.559 --> 00:13:05.600
Uh again, no other way to put it.
00:13:05.679 --> 00:13:06.960
So you're about to see.
00:13:07.120 --> 00:13:10.480
You thought the spread was phenomenal, but it's seven courses.
00:13:10.720 --> 00:13:12.000
I see too many forks and knives.
00:13:12.080 --> 00:13:13.519
Where's the where's the uh I'm a purist?
00:13:13.600 --> 00:13:14.960
I want I want to I know you are.
00:13:15.039 --> 00:13:21.679
I know you are I want I want my chopsticks, and I want them to be nice, I want them to be like ceramic.
00:13:22.240 --> 00:13:22.879
I hear you.
00:13:23.039 --> 00:13:23.679
Yeah.
00:13:23.919 --> 00:13:25.120
Alright, moving on.
00:13:25.279 --> 00:13:26.799
So that was the appetizer.
00:13:26.960 --> 00:13:31.039
Oh, there's a there's a bamboo chopsticks, but yeah, yeah, so you did get your chopsticks.
00:13:31.200 --> 00:13:34.480
So obviously you have your your normal salad with ginger dressing.
00:13:34.639 --> 00:13:37.200
Yeah, mine, it's really just there for visual.
00:13:37.440 --> 00:13:40.799
I didn't I didn't I was not a salad eater on this cruise.
00:13:41.120 --> 00:13:45.200
Uh and again, I mean, you're the sushi specialist, so go ahead and lay that out.
00:13:45.440 --> 00:13:53.360
No, it looks like a uh tuna, it looks like um a shrimp over the rice, a little Nagori, looks like a little bit of uh tuna sashimi.
00:13:54.000 --> 00:13:58.080
It looks like uh yeah, a great little palate cleanser.
00:13:58.399 --> 00:14:05.200
And then I chose, so that was actually my mom's, that's what she had, and then I chose to not do the miso soup.
00:14:05.279 --> 00:14:08.080
Right, and then they gave me all tuna, so that times two.
00:14:08.240 --> 00:14:08.559
Wow.
00:14:08.720 --> 00:14:11.519
So there's the first part of your main entree.
00:14:11.679 --> 00:14:15.120
I'll let you, since you were the uh the foodie here.
00:14:15.759 --> 00:14:19.279
Well, I I mean that's a mixed um fish course.
00:14:19.360 --> 00:14:22.159
So it looks like you have a clam on the open uh scallop shell.
00:14:22.240 --> 00:14:27.279
You got the miso that's a white fish, so that was a cod.
00:14:27.440 --> 00:14:34.399
Okay, a miso cod, and then it looks like uh that another cell fish, lobster tail lobster tail.
00:14:34.639 --> 00:14:41.120
Okay, so again, not a great angle of it, and then you had your vegetables, and what's nice is they kind of gave you vegetables with both.
00:14:41.360 --> 00:14:42.720
Oh, baby.
00:14:44.080 --> 00:14:48.240
And then you're gonna go ahead and see right here, so this is like the video.
00:14:48.399 --> 00:14:50.000
So this is exactly like the video.
00:14:50.240 --> 00:15:01.759
So you have the hibachi, you have the tempanyaki on one side, and then if you choose to not do that, so we were a little confused because when we got on, we thought we couldn't do the hibachi for two of the three nights.
00:15:01.919 --> 00:15:09.600
Oh so we did this for the third night, and then I said I went back and I just said, Hey, well, mom's not really a sushi person.
00:15:09.840 --> 00:15:12.000
Uh, can we do hibachi?
00:15:12.080 --> 00:15:12.960
And they were like, sure.
00:15:13.120 --> 00:15:15.120
So again, made made the accommodation.
00:15:15.279 --> 00:15:16.399
Oh, that's brilliant.
00:15:16.639 --> 00:15:19.039
Oh, and then that's the second half right there.
00:15:19.200 --> 00:15:20.559
So that's the second half of the meal.
00:15:20.639 --> 00:15:25.279
Again, you get more than the lobster shrimps, and that's called a shogun.
00:15:25.360 --> 00:15:26.159
So that was$55.
00:15:26.559 --> 00:15:28.879
I'm sorry, that was$75 normally.
00:15:29.039 --> 00:15:29.120
Wow.
00:15:29.279 --> 00:15:32.159
So because we got the package, it was only a$20 upgrade.
00:15:32.320 --> 00:15:37.919
Oh, so yes, I ate Wagyu beef and lobster two out of the three meals.
00:15:38.720 --> 00:15:40.480
You know, definitely on a diet, summer diet.
00:15:40.879 --> 00:15:41.679
Spoiled.
00:15:42.080 --> 00:15:42.960
Oh man, look at that.
00:15:43.200 --> 00:15:46.799
And then that's Ola, that's the uh taco spot again.
00:15:46.960 --> 00:15:48.000
You can do that as well.
00:15:48.159 --> 00:15:49.120
We highly recommend it.
00:15:49.200 --> 00:15:53.440
Maybe as soon as you first get on the cruise, is go ahead and and uh and be there.
00:15:53.519 --> 00:16:01.759
And what was really cool about this when we were walking in, so you walk out of the sports bar, that's where this is, and of course, all the specialty dining.
00:16:01.840 --> 00:16:03.360
We told you our favorite deck.
00:16:03.519 --> 00:16:04.960
That's right, deck eight.
00:16:05.440 --> 00:16:08.080
Deck eight, deck eight, seashore for the win.
00:16:08.240 --> 00:16:08.879
That's it.
00:16:09.120 --> 00:16:13.120
So that's probably one of the coolest spots, super chill.
00:16:13.279 --> 00:16:17.919
Uh, so again, a few months ago, we went ahead on peer pressure portcast.
00:16:18.799 --> 00:16:26.960
We showed you a lot of South Beach, we showed you uh, you know, different parts of Ocean K, but we didn't show you a hammock.
00:16:27.200 --> 00:16:29.919
No, and again, there's not a hammock that I saw.
00:16:30.159 --> 00:16:39.360
And the way I'm gonna tell you is obviously the new catchphrase we be smiling on the island because the hammock looks like a mouth that's smiling.
00:16:39.519 --> 00:16:40.639
It it is a smile.
00:16:40.799 --> 00:16:41.360
That's it.
00:16:41.759 --> 00:16:42.879
The trees have a smile.
00:16:43.039 --> 00:16:45.200
So well, thank you for the food tour.
00:16:45.360 --> 00:16:47.600
Yeah, now we're uh I guess ocean K.
00:16:47.840 --> 00:16:49.279
Yeah, we're gonna jump around here.
00:16:50.399 --> 00:16:53.840
So again, uh something that that we learned, right?
00:16:54.000 --> 00:16:54.240
Uh-huh.
00:16:54.399 -->
00:16:56.080
So there's two ways of of doing this.
00:16:56.240 --> 00:17:04.319
The first is get off the ship and and either first thing or then wait until after noon.
00:17:04.480 --> 00:17:05.839
Okay, here's why.
00:17:06.079 --> 00:17:12.640
If you get off first, obviously you're gonna get your your your seating is gonna be choice accommodations.
00:17:12.799 --> 00:17:13.119
Exactly.
00:17:13.279 --> 00:17:14.160
Great way to put it.
00:17:14.640 --> 00:17:18.640
They do they purposely give you value on the ship.
00:17:18.960 --> 00:17:22.000
So when you get to Ocean K, you have to pay for a few things.
00:17:22.079 --> 00:17:26.079
They were really slick this time, something they did different than when we were on cruising.
00:17:26.400 --> 00:17:35.759
Uh, on our door, they gave us a slip this time, and it said um it had umbrella and two seats for$39.99.
00:17:35.920 --> 00:17:49.920
Well, I had clients on on the ship, and they were like, Oh, you gifted us an umbrella, and you know, and I was like, No, if you notice, if you notice, yes, you did get a gift, but it wasn't it wasn't that.
00:17:50.079 --> 00:17:52.799
Um again, we do something special for all of our sailors.
00:17:52.880 --> 00:17:56.000
It was their anniversary, so they got something cool to the room.
00:17:56.160 --> 00:17:57.200
Uh it was perfect.
00:17:57.759 --> 00:18:00.960
It was perfect way to end a day at Coco Key.
00:18:01.039 --> 00:18:02.160
If you notice I didn't say K.
00:18:02.400 --> 00:18:03.039
Yeah, yeah, right.
00:18:03.359 --> 00:18:05.440
Um, but it was it was it was phenomenal.
00:18:05.599 --> 00:18:11.200
But again, when it comes down to the island, just they're gonna try to upsell you on certain things.
00:18:11.279 --> 00:18:15.279
Right, they purposefully don't have that many available when it comes to it.
00:18:15.440 --> 00:18:25.119
But these, one thing they tell you about Lighthouse uh Beach and North Beach, all the if you see those there, those are complimentary.
00:18:25.440 --> 00:18:26.720
So first come, first serve.
00:18:26.880 --> 00:18:28.319
First come, first serve, exactly.
00:18:28.559 --> 00:18:35.680
So there's one of the buffets on on uh the island, uh, and again, just like they have on the ship, they do a really good job.
00:18:35.839 --> 00:18:46.079
So people will say, people will say, hey, when it comes to when it comes to the MSc experience, I always say the opportunity is the food.
00:18:46.400 --> 00:18:50.559
But I would say dinner in the main dining room is where the opportunity is.
00:18:50.799 --> 00:18:56.799
Everywhere else, the island, uh, and again, this doesn't open, I think, till till 12 o'clock.
00:18:57.359 --> 00:18:59.279
You also have the beach shack, right?
00:18:59.519 --> 00:19:09.200
Um you also have the so the beach shack is 11:30, these are uh 12, but they do a really good job.
00:19:09.359 --> 00:19:13.359
Their buffets are phenomenal, and what are they known for in their buffets?
00:19:13.599 --> 00:19:15.200
We had it the pizza.
00:19:15.519 --> 00:19:16.160
Oh yeah, right?
00:19:16.400 --> 00:19:16.799
Really good pizza.
00:19:16.960 --> 00:19:18.079
So really, really good pizza.
00:19:18.240 --> 00:19:23.839
Italian, it's a European-based company, and they knock it out of the park.
00:19:25.680 --> 00:19:27.759
So we just talked about the buffets.
00:19:28.000 --> 00:19:31.839
Then you also have these uh these beach shacks right here.
00:19:32.079 --> 00:19:34.079
Again, what did I have this time?
00:19:34.319 --> 00:19:39.200
I made sure that I had the uh I had the the pasta, right?
00:19:39.279 --> 00:19:44.000
So I I and then of course I wanted something a little different, and I said, hey, you know what?
00:19:44.079 --> 00:19:48.400
If I'm going to New York, I feel like I'm going to a ball game, I'm gonna have me an old school corndog.
00:19:48.559 --> 00:19:53.279
So I had a corndog, I had a uh a little bit of uh pasta.
00:19:53.519 --> 00:19:57.279
Now, one thing is they do try to upcharge you, and they that's the first thing they ask.
00:19:57.359 --> 00:19:59.680
Hey, would you like a lobster roll for$12.99?
00:20:00.079 --> 00:20:01.519
So again, not too bad.
00:20:01.680 --> 00:20:06.720
Um, you know, areas of opportunity, I think they give you so much value on the on the front end.
00:20:06.880 --> 00:20:10.079
It's okay if they I don't want to say nickel and dime you, right?
00:20:10.160 --> 00:20:11.920
Because you get on for a nickel and a dime, right?
00:20:12.000 --> 00:20:13.440
We that was our joke last time.
00:20:13.680 --> 00:20:18.240
They do a really good job of some upper end opportunities.
00:20:18.400 --> 00:20:19.200
Yeah, 100%.
00:20:19.839 --> 00:20:25.279
And and even for$12.99, that's still a you're still like a deal for a lobster roll.
00:20:25.440 --> 00:20:28.240
100% for$20 anywhere you go, anywhere.
00:20:28.480 --> 00:20:35.759
And this is uh, so this was in the elevator when we were getting back on the ship, like it does a phenomenal job laying out Ocean K.
00:20:36.079 --> 00:20:41.200
Now, something unique that we heard from so here's one area of opportunity.
00:20:41.279 --> 00:20:46.400
I I say one, but right one area of opportunity when it comes to to MSc.
00:20:46.640 --> 00:20:50.960
Because of the language barrier, you go to a lot, you ask a lot of questions, hey, where's such and such?
00:20:51.039 --> 00:20:51.200
Right.
00:20:51.440 --> 00:21:02.559
How about the gentleman who gave us the tour up to Lighthouse had no idea where the con the what the island was gonna be called that the construction is being done on?
00:21:02.720 --> 00:21:03.279
Oh, okay.
00:21:03.440 --> 00:21:07.119
So he wasn't sure he said he knew what it was supposed to be about, right?
00:21:07.279 --> 00:21:09.359
But of course, who had to step in?
00:21:09.599 --> 00:21:18.240
The travel educator and advisor, and I said that's actually gonna be called, and you don't see it here, but you're you're gonna see a nice
little snippet at the end.
00:21:18.319 --> 00:21:25.920
We're gonna end on it, and so what do you think this island was called before it was called Coco Key or Coco K?
00:21:27.039 --> 00:21:28.559
Was it called Coco K?
00:21:29.039 --> 00:21:30.559
I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Ocean K.
00:21:30.880 --> 00:21:31.440
Ocean K.
00:21:31.680 --> 00:21:35.200
What was it called before it was Ocean K or Ocean Key?
00:21:35.599 --> 00:21:36.079
Little.
00:21:36.640 --> 00:21:38.960
How about Sandy Key or Sandy K?
00:21:39.519 --> 00:21:40.559
Okay, I didn't know that.
00:21:40.880 --> 00:21:43.519
And now it's called Ocean Key or K.
00:21:43.759 --> 00:21:44.000
Right.
00:21:44.160 --> 00:21:47.359
And again, I think you did a phenomenal job of a video.
00:21:47.440 --> 00:21:56.319
So if again, go back to episode uh, I believe four, go back to episode four, and you're gonna go ahead and see how this island was erected.
00:21:56.559 --> 00:21:59.839
Started in 2015, finished in 2019.
00:22:00.640 --> 00:22:02.720
Now the limit is through the roof.
00:22:02.799 --> 00:22:08.960
By 2027, you're going to have uh some types of pools, and you're going to have all these different beaches throughout.
00:22:09.279 --> 00:22:13.519
Plus, you're going to have Sandy K, which you're going to see at the end, and we'll talk about that then.
00:22:13.680 --> 00:22:14.880
Oh man, I can't wait.
00:22:15.279 --> 00:22:17.759
So there you can see this is from the island.
00:22:17.839 --> 00:22:19.519
This is from Lighthouse Beach.
00:22:19.759 --> 00:22:21.759
Absolutely stunning, right?
00:22:21.839 --> 00:22:27.440
So you have the ship, lighthouse beach, first come, first serve with everything.
00:22:27.599 --> 00:22:30.559
Uh, and then here's something we we learned about those nets.
00:22:30.720 --> 00:22:32.160
Do you know why those nets are there?
00:22:32.480 --> 00:22:38.640
Keep uh so they said all the big sharks will be kept out by those nets.
00:22:38.799 --> 00:22:42.400
However, the babies, the two to three feet, they're not gonna hurt you.
00:22:42.559 --> 00:22:44.720
So you might be snorkeling on the island.
00:22:45.119 --> 00:22:54.079
Of course, that the you know the little babies can swim through, but sure, no one has ever been harmed, as from what we hear from the two to three footers.
00:22:54.240 --> 00:22:54.799
Right.
00:22:55.119 --> 00:22:56.960
Me, a shark, I'm going the other way.
00:22:57.200 --> 00:23:01.119
And um, that's stunning view from from our balcony, actually.
00:23:01.200 --> 00:23:01.359
Wow.
00:23:01.599 --> 00:23:06.000
So we we've got some phenomenal video coming in, some phenomenal photos.
00:23:06.240 --> 00:23:09.599
So that really is lighthouse point.
00:23:10.559 --> 00:23:20.000
Uh, you're gonna you know see a uh you're gonna see a video of straight down from the lighthouse and what you see, and again, so many things.
00:23:20.240 --> 00:23:27.039
Ocean K, Ocean Key talked about the number one tropical island for all of cruising.
00:23:27.200 --> 00:23:34.960
Oh wow, that's a lot to to to to say because I mean there's there's some good competition out there, you know.
00:23:35.119 --> 00:23:39.920
But I think what it is is what they're saying is it's not truly man-made, right?
00:23:40.079 --> 00:24:03.440
Now, obviously, the rock position and things of that nature that is man-made, but as you can see right there, this is or this is a walking point, so we were able to walk down, kind of go above Lighthouse Beach, able to see the ship itself right there, deck a you know, uh, I believe right here we're even with like deck four or five, and then you're able to see all of Lighthouse Beach.
00:24:03.599 --> 00:24:07.519
And what's what's cool is there's a lot of construction going on on the island.
00:24:08.160 --> 00:24:08.720
Why?
00:24:08.960 --> 00:24:17.759
Obviously, they're trying to make it better for all the sailors, and who's staying there is those who work on the island and the construction workers as well.
00:24:17.920 --> 00:24:20.640
So when I say work, I mean the servers, right?
00:24:20.799 --> 00:24:26.400
The staff, the staff, and then the construction because so much construction is happening.
00:24:27.279 --> 00:24:28.240
Wow, look at that.
00:24:28.400 --> 00:24:35.279
And there you go, all the way to the left, you're you're able to see that the now that they call that's like Rocky Beach, right?
00:24:35.440 --> 00:24:39.440
So that's that's kind of um again, first come, first serve.
00:24:39.599 --> 00:24:45.920
So when you saw those, uh when you saw those little seating areas, that's where that's gonna be, all the way to the left.
00:24:46.079 --> 00:24:51.039
And when you and I went back in uh January, we didn't see any of this.
00:24:51.200 --> 00:24:52.640
We stayed to the right, right?
00:24:52.799 --> 00:24:57.440
We stayed all the way to South Beach and and uh and all of that, right?
00:24:57.599 --> 00:25:02.400
And I said, hey, this time I'm gonna explore everything we didn't, right?
00:25:03.200 --> 00:25:05.839
Yeah, did they do a 5K um that morning too?
00:25:06.160 --> 00:25:10.880
Matter of fact, there were runners the whole time running throughout the um paths.
00:25:11.039 --> 00:25:14.000
I wish I could bring my skateboard on those paths, that'd be a fun skateboard.
00:25:14.160 --> 00:25:15.359
Well, which path would you be on?
00:25:15.519 --> 00:25:17.279
Would it be the driving or the walking?
00:25:17.759 --> 00:25:19.440
No, the the driving, not the pedestrians.
00:25:19.599 --> 00:25:20.000
There you go.
00:25:20.079 --> 00:25:24.400
So yeah, at least, and that's probably the biggest opportunity is pay attention to the signs, right?
00:25:24.559 --> 00:25:29.200
But even on a skateboard, you have to be careful because there's so many carts coming in and out.
00:25:29.359 --> 00:25:29.599
I know.
00:25:30.160 --> 00:25:31.200
It's a busy island.
00:25:31.440 --> 00:25:37.359
It is, you know, I mean uh when 8,000 people
descend on it for an afternoon, it's so much infrastructure.
00:25:37.440 --> 00:25:43.200
All the food has to come off the ship, the people come off the ship, the staff come off the ship, yeah, and we turn that thing into a bustling little city.
00:25:43.440 --> 00:25:43.759
That's it.
00:25:43.839 --> 00:25:48.079
And world class is gonna have about, like you said, a little over 7,000.
00:25:48.319 --> 00:25:51.359
So times plus the staff, you said it right there.
00:25:51.519 --> 00:25:54.480
Yeah, and that's that that's that rocky beach.
00:25:54.559 --> 00:26:00.160
So again, it's not gonna be the beach type, and again, are we spoiled here in Florida with beaches?
00:26:00.400 --> 00:26:01.359
Of course, right?
00:26:01.440 --> 00:26:11.440
You go to certain beaches, and that's not the norm, but I think in a in a unique way, that's your calmness of a beach, right?
00:26:11.599 --> 00:26:17.440
Right, and you can see all the what's on the ground right there, that's some areas that you can see.
00:26:17.519 --> 00:26:19.200
It was a rock quarry, right?
00:26:19.279 --> 00:26:22.240
They they they did some digging, pun intended.
00:26:22.720 --> 00:26:28.960
Um, and one thing else that we learned is they took they wanted to make sure all the ecosystems were still functional.
00:26:29.119 --> 00:26:38.400
So the first thing they did is removed a lot of the reefs and put them out around the island so that it can still do what it naturally needs to do.
00:26:38.640 --> 00:26:39.759
That's smart.
00:26:41.759 --> 00:26:47.279
And that is a beautiful golden hour pulling up.
00:26:47.359 --> 00:26:50.000
Uh again, that's from our balcony.
00:26:50.559 --> 00:26:52.319
It's absolutely stunning.
00:26:52.640 --> 00:26:55.759
And uh that's uh that's that's on your uh arrival as you can.
00:26:55.920 --> 00:26:56.480
That is on the arrival.
00:26:57.759 --> 00:27:00.799
Yep, so that's approximately 6.30 in the morning.
00:27:01.039 --> 00:27:05.119
Uh we had breakfast a little earlier, so we did breakfast about 7:30.
00:27:05.279 --> 00:27:10.400
So we tried to get this, go do breakfast, and then I had to be at the lighthouse at 9:50.
00:27:10.720 --> 00:27:16.079
So uh again, wanted to make sure we were there in time, and it was absolutely stunning.
00:27:18.000 --> 00:27:19.279
MSC mazing.
00:27:19.359 --> 00:27:20.000
So there you go.
00:27:20.079 --> 00:27:21.920
That's a simple lagoon in the middle.
00:27:22.079 --> 00:27:23.599
That's what makes it so nice, right?
00:27:23.759 --> 00:27:28.319
So you have the lagoon in the middle, you can swim across it if you if you so choose.
00:27:28.559 --> 00:27:32.000
And and we've had clients say, This is our favorite island.
00:27:32.240 --> 00:27:34.880
Now, some people will agree, some people will disagree.
00:27:35.119 --> 00:27:36.240
Are you more tropical?
00:27:36.400 --> 00:27:37.279
Do you like pools?
00:27:37.440 --> 00:27:44.160
Right, you know, again, and and it's no different than as a travel educator and advisor, what's the value of worth worth?
00:27:44.400 --> 00:27:50.400
Right when you think of island, this is what most people think think about.
00:27:50.559 --> 00:27:50.880
Right.
00:27:51.119 --> 00:27:51.680
100%.
00:27:52.160 --> 00:27:54.480
So again, MSC Tropical.
00:27:55.759 --> 00:27:59.839
So going back to like we talked about it earlier, that's hands.
00:28:00.160 --> 00:28:02.480
If you were to say, What's my top three things?
00:28:02.799 --> 00:28:04.480
This would be in my top three.
00:28:04.640 --> 00:28:07.519
That's gonna be a sports bar.
00:28:08.400 --> 00:28:11.599
What's nice is you can do sports bedding as well.
00:28:11.759 --> 00:28:13.599
Oh, wow, and what do you think those seats are?
00:28:14.400 --> 00:28:16.160
And what do you think those seats are to the right?
00:28:16.319 --> 00:28:18.000
Those are actual slot machines.
00:28:18.240 --> 00:28:20.880
Oh, so you can see why you like this bar, right?
00:28:20.960 --> 00:28:24.880
So you're able to, and then seating all the way in the left, you're overlooking the balconies.
00:28:24.960 --> 00:28:32.000
Yeah, you have you slot machines if you so choose, full wraparound bar, and then what do you see to the top right there?
00:28:32.160 --> 00:28:41.440
You have a full ticker that talks about all the sports, and this was hands down our favorite sports bar we have ever been in at sea.
00:28:41.680 --> 00:28:44.720
No, this this is it flips the script.
00:28:44.799 --> 00:28:49.039
Yeah, you can't have gambling and and any all that in any other sports bar.
00:28:49.200 --> 00:28:53.279
And I think you got double points on the slot machines when you did that there.
00:28:54.319 --> 00:28:54.720
Yeah.
00:28:54.960 --> 00:28:57.759
So again, that is actually from the ship as well.
00:28:58.000 --> 00:29:03.839
So that's hands down our favorite view, and that actually might be from right outside the sports bar.
00:29:04.240 --> 00:29:05.200
Oh, perfect.
00:29:05.359 --> 00:29:05.839
Yep.
00:29:08.400 --> 00:29:10.720
Yeah, see they got the construction over here on the right side.
00:29:11.039 --> 00:29:11.599
Exactly.
00:29:11.920 --> 00:29:12.559
Wow.
00:29:12.880 --> 00:29:13.839
Look at that.
00:29:14.079 --> 00:29:15.440
I mean, they are building so much.
00:29:15.759 --> 00:29:20.400
They are, and and again, it's it's because they're trying again, they're building everywhere.
00:29:20.480 --> 00:29:22.240
As you can see, the crane at the end, right?
00:29:22.319 --> 00:29:24.960
You have the crane behind the ship trying to do what it has to do.
00:29:25.279 --> 00:29:28.880
So many things on that island, and it's warp speed.
00:29:29.039 --> 00:29:38.000
You know, not only are they building ships faster than everybody else, I think they're doing the upgrades on the islands faster than everybody else.
00:29:38.240 --> 00:29:41.599
Oh, yeah, they've they put so much uh time and labor into this.
00:29:41.680 --> 00:29:43.680
You can see why housing makes
sense.
00:29:44.000 --> 00:29:53.759
I mean, try think about trying to to have 30 uh construction workers commuting from Miami or Bemini to this island every day.
00:29:54.079 --> 00:29:55.279
Yeah, but that's like way.
00:29:57.200 --> 00:30:03.519
And and I I guarantee that it'll turn into either more staff uh housing after the construction's all done.
00:30:03.599 --> 00:30:05.599
Yeah, or maybe even some overnight.
00:30:05.759 --> 00:30:15.200
I mean, I'm speculating, but that'd be cool if they they offer, you know, if you get there, get in there at nighttime and and select to do a uh cabana overnight instead of your room.
00:30:15.519 --> 00:30:16.000
Who knows?
00:30:16.319 --> 00:30:18.559
You know, it's it's limitless, pun intended.
00:30:18.720 --> 00:30:19.200
That's right.
00:30:19.440 --> 00:30:24.960
And that's looking out from that's the other side looking out from our uh cabin as well.
00:30:25.200 --> 00:30:30.079
Again, the balcony that doesn't give it any justice, but it was literally the size of an interior room.
00:30:30.240 --> 00:30:35.519
Wow, it had two loungers, two normal seats, uh, you know, a footstool, and then a table as well.
00:30:35.759 --> 00:30:38.960
So we were in ah pun intended.
00:30:39.279 --> 00:30:40.079
I bet.
00:30:41.119 --> 00:30:42.079
Oh lucky there.
00:30:42.319 --> 00:30:45.440
And that's what we're gonna end with when it comes to the photos.
00:30:45.519 --> 00:30:47.680
Yeah, so we talked about it earlier.
00:30:48.480 --> 00:30:53.279
What was Ocean Key or Ocean K originally named?
00:30:54.079 --> 00:30:54.559
Sandy.
00:30:54.960 --> 00:30:55.599
There it is.
00:30:55.839 --> 00:30:59.119
So this is now called Sandy K or Sandy Key.
00:30:59.759 --> 00:31:02.960
Ocean K originally, or Ocean Key was originally named that.
00:31:03.119 --> 00:31:09.359
So uh, and again, when we talk to the education side of it, the gentleman was like, We're not sure what's going on here.
00:31:09.519 --> 00:31:18.960
So, as we've already talked about here on Peer Pressure Portcast, the key is with this, this is going to be available for two types of people.
00:31:20.000 --> 00:31:21.519
What's the first, Jesse?
00:31:22.079 --> 00:31:36.400
A yacht club, of course, the yacht club, and then the explora, which is the luxury line, explora one, explora two, and guess who just got is doing sea trials?
00:31:36.480 --> 00:31:56.079
The explorer three, really, the explore explora four and five will be completed in 2027, the explora six will be 2029, so you're gonna have six luxury explorer ships from MSC, obviously MSC Mazing.
00:31:56.640 --> 00:32:01.519
You're gonna have 35 ships by 2035.
00:32:02.079 --> 00:32:05.599
You've got this going on at Ocean Key or Ocean K.
00:32:06.079 --> 00:32:12.160
They just spent I don't know how many millions of dollars, I believe, in Grand Bahama as well.
00:32:12.640 --> 00:32:14.960
So we're gonna continue to say it.
00:32:15.039 --> 00:32:20.319
Our favorite two words here at Peer Pressure Podcast talking about MSc and their growth.
00:32:20.640 --> 00:32:21.839
Stay tuned.
00:32:22.240 --> 00:32:23.039
Stay tuned.
00:32:23.359 --> 00:32:23.759
That's it.
00:32:23.920 --> 00:32:26.079
And then I believe sounds so sweet.
00:32:26.240 --> 00:32:29.680
I believe we just that was just the video, that was just the photos, right?
00:32:29.759 --> 00:32:31.039
We have a few videos as well.
00:32:31.279 --> 00:32:33.359
Yeah, let's show uh okay, we will be able to do that.
00:32:33.440 --> 00:32:36.720
So of course, a little roundy round right there when it comes to your sushi.
00:32:37.119 --> 00:32:38.640
Unique opportunity.
00:32:39.839 --> 00:32:42.640
And there is the panning from the ship.
00:32:42.880 --> 00:32:46.559
Wow, and as you can see, all of that, right?
00:32:46.640 --> 00:32:49.200
The whole island, about an acre worth.
00:32:49.519 --> 00:32:59.119
You see the Sandy K to the right of the ship, you see the ship, you see the five or six beaches, you see the construction all the way over to the last beach.
00:32:59.279 --> 00:32:59.440
Wow.
00:32:59.680 --> 00:33:00.960
Absolutely amazing.
00:33:01.359 --> 00:33:02.640
That's a beautiful pan.
00:33:02.799 --> 00:33:05.279
I I think some of the folks are gonna save this as a wallpaper.
00:33:05.599 --> 00:33:07.279
And again, that's from the lighthouse.
00:33:07.440 --> 00:33:11.839
We highly, highly suggest go see our boy Sammy at the lighthouse.
00:33:11.920 --> 00:33:15.119
Tell him peer pressure portcast, the cruise coach, and Dr.
00:33:15.279 --> 00:33:16.720
Paradise sent you.
00:33:16.960 --> 00:33:17.759
Go see him.
00:33:17.920 --> 00:33:21.759
He was awesome, and we got to ask him, is it key or is it K?
00:33:22.319 --> 00:33:23.119
That's right.
00:33:23.359 --> 00:33:24.720
And we already know the answer.
00:33:24.880 --> 00:33:27.759
It is key, even though it's spelled K.
00:33:29.839 --> 00:33:31.440
And that is there, look at how low.
00:33:31.680 --> 00:33:32.640
That is a big balcony.
00:33:32.799 --> 00:33:33.759
You see what I'm saying?
00:33:33.920 --> 00:33:36.640
So that's much, much different.
00:33:36.799 --> 00:33:43.519
I wanted to show the balcony first, then you have your seating area, and then if you go up, you've got the beds, right?
00:33:43.920 --> 00:33:57.440
Um, and again, the uh stand-up shower, you have the you know, I would say that that's not very large inside the uh, you know, inside the inside the bano right there.
00:33:57.519 --> 00:34:01.440
Yeah, but overall, again, it depends on the room.
00:34:01.519 --> 00:34:03.119
You're you're gonna have it one or the other.
00:34:03.279 --> 00:34:06.079
So you're gonna either have the bed there and flip-flop.
00:34:06.319 --> 00:34:12.400
So you're always gonna have the couch on one side with the desk and then the bed on the opposite.
00:34:13.119 --> 00:34:13.599
Nice.
00:34:14.239 --> 00:34:15.760
And again, this happens all the time.
00:34:15.920 --> 00:34:24.320
So
something I'll let you know is you can see if you get there, and obviously I'm going with my mom, so the bed was supposed to be split, they had it together.
00:34:24.480 --> 00:34:27.440
All you say is, hey Stuart, you mind separating them?
00:34:27.599 --> 00:34:34.320
And he literally came in, he made sure it was perfect, he was absolutely phenomenal for us.
00:34:34.480 --> 00:34:40.079
We gave him a little bit extra, it was spotless inside of our room.
00:34:40.320 --> 00:34:45.679
Yeah, that's a great little room, and there it is, directly from the lighthouse, looking straight down.
00:34:45.840 --> 00:34:47.280
You want to talk about a pan?
00:34:47.679 --> 00:34:49.760
Normally you pan left to right or right to left.
00:34:49.920 --> 00:34:51.280
How about down to up?
00:34:52.159 --> 00:34:53.039
That is stunning.
00:34:53.679 --> 00:34:54.559
How many steps?
00:34:54.639 --> 00:34:56.400
Okay, oh, stump the captain.
00:34:57.440 --> 00:34:59.599
How many steps are up the lighthouse?
00:34:59.840 --> 00:35:00.480
How many?
00:35:00.719 --> 00:35:01.440
Oh man.
00:35:02.559 --> 00:35:03.440
Let's see, MSC.
00:35:03.519 --> 00:35:08.079
I bet there's a whimsical number like Disney.
00:35:09.039 --> 00:35:10.480
Let's just say 78.
00:35:10.719 --> 00:35:11.760
165.
00:35:12.000 --> 00:35:13.360
Oh wow, that's a lot more.
00:35:13.599 --> 00:35:14.880
165 steps.
00:35:14.960 --> 00:35:16.800
What's nice is there's three different tiers.
00:35:17.039 --> 00:35:19.599
So one of the ladies we were with, she was scared of heights.
00:35:19.760 --> 00:35:23.440
But by by the time she got to the top, you know, we were kind of helping her out.
00:35:23.599 --> 00:35:27.280
And that to me, right there, that was worth it again.
00:35:27.360 --> 00:35:32.400
If you were to say, give us some recommendations and excursions, obviously snorkeling.
00:35:32.559 --> 00:35:40.480
But that right there, do the lighthouse climb, ask for Sammy, tell him peer pressure portcast and the cruise coach sent you.
00:35:40.800 --> 00:35:41.199
Awesome.
00:35:41.280 --> 00:35:44.000
Look at that, beautiful, absolutely stunning.
00:35:44.239 --> 00:35:46.880
And as you can see, that's the pan right there.
00:35:47.119 --> 00:35:49.760
What we were pulling up, golden hour.
00:35:50.000 --> 00:35:51.280
Yeah, nice little zoom.
00:35:51.440 --> 00:35:54.000
Oh, it was it was amazing, right?
00:35:54.159 --> 00:35:56.639
And you could I was getting so excited.
00:35:56.719 --> 00:35:59.360
It was almost like I was a child going to Disney.
00:36:00.239 --> 00:36:03.840
Uh, just the way you see the island, you see it from afar.
00:36:04.159 --> 00:36:11.039
You know, I'm not normally a 6 a.m.er uh when it comes to the cruises, but I knew I had to be up early to be at the lighthouse.
00:36:11.199 --> 00:36:11.360
Right.
00:36:12.480 --> 00:36:13.519
And there you go.
00:36:13.760 --> 00:36:16.639
What are we gonna talk about the whole episode?
00:36:17.119 --> 00:36:18.480
MSC Amazing.
00:36:18.719 --> 00:36:20.480
MSC Amazing.
00:36:20.719 --> 00:36:22.320
Well, well done, cruise coach.
00:36:22.400 --> 00:36:24.960
Uh, ladies and gentlemen, I hope you enjoyed that.
00:36:25.119 --> 00:36:28.639

00:36:28.719 --> 00:36:32.960
Let us know what you love about it, hate about it, and uh what you want to see more of.
00:36:33.039 --> 00:36:34.079
That'd be that'd be great.
00:36:34.159 --> 00:36:43.840
Ring a bell, share the the episode with a friend, so much more, and make sure you see all the other ones as well, because the cruise coach have been dropping all kinds of knowledge bombs for the last seven episodes.
00:36:44.000 --> 00:36:46.480
So this is uh yeah, we hope you enjoy it.
00:36:46.719 --> 00:36:47.280
That's it.
00:36:47.440 --> 00:36:51.360
And again, we're gonna end this, Jesse, the same way we end it all the time.
00:36:51.519 --> 00:37:02.559
Uh, we're gonna go ahead and make sure we uh we uh pray for for those here in the Port Canaveral area if anyone was injured from the Blue Origin uh explosion.
00:37:02.800 --> 00:37:05.760
Um so I'm ready to get into it if you are, my friend.
00:37:06.000 --> 00:37:06.400
Absolutely.
00:37:06.559 --> 00:37:08.559
All right, dear Lord, we love you and we thank you.
00:37:08.639 --> 00:37:09.840
We thank you for every opportunity.
00:37:10.480 --> 00:37:13.599
We thank you for every opportunity and every blessing, Lord.
00:37:13.760 --> 00:37:20.000
We pray for Port Canaveral and all those in the vicinity uh who just you know had to witness uh that explosion.
00:37:20.159 --> 00:37:21.840
We pray that nobody was hurt.
00:37:22.000 --> 00:37:27.760
We pray for all those in the continued growth of Ocean K and of MSc.
00:37:27.920 --> 00:37:31.519
And we just pray that you'll continue to walk with us, talk with us.
00:37:31.760 --> 00:37:39.199
We pray for continued growth, us with the podcast, Peer Pressure Podcast, our businesses, Space Coast Podcast.
00:37:39.760 --> 00:37:44.639
We pray for growth, and most importantly, we pray for doing it the right way, Lord.
00:37:44.719 --> 00:37:47.679
We know that your light is brighter than everybody else.
00:37:47.840 --> 00:37:54.480
Uh, we know that in a dark, dark world, we are guaranteed one thing, and it is a relationship with you.
00:37:54.719 --> 00:37:57.280
We pray for all those who are listening to this podcast.
00:37:57.360 --> 00:38:08.719
If they do not have a relationship with you, they simply can reach out to us, reach out to a local church, and we will definitely get them in contact with somebody who can guide them to your light, Lord.
00:38:08.960 --> 00:38:15.280
We know that you are the light, and we are simply the uh beacons, just like that lighthouse is, Lord.
00:38:15.519 --> 00:38:20.239
We love you, we thank you, we thank you for another episode of Peer Pressure Podcast.
00:38:20.400 --> 00:38:28.239
We thank you for our continued growth and not just the podcast, but in our businesses, and we pray for the 321, the Countown County, Lord.
00:38:28.320 --> 00:38:29.519
We love you and we thank you.
00:38:29.760 --> 00:38:31.119
In your name we pray.
00:38:32.559 --> 00:38:34.480
And again, that was beautiful.
00:38:34.800 --> 00:38:36.800
We be smiling on the island.
00:38:38.559 --> 00:38:41.039
Well, guys, until next time.
00:38:42.960 --> 00:38:43.920
Enjoy it.
00:38:44.159 --> 00:38:46.639
Get out there and uh and let us help out.
00:38:47.119 --> 00:38:47.679
That's it.
00:38:48.400 --> 00:38:50.400
Follow us and we'll take you somewhere.
00:38:55.199 --> 00:38:58.159
It's time to cruise all day and nice.
00:38:58.719 --> 00:39:00.159
Baby cruising.
00:39:01.760 --> 00:39:06.559
