You’ve traveled with us, laughed with us, and trusted us to give honest reviews along the way—and that support is the reason we get to keep doing what we love.

Thank you for being part of our journey this year. Truly.

Christmas on a Virgin Voyages Cruise was NOT what we expected! 🎄🛳️

💭🤔 Have you ever wondered what Christmas on a cruise ship would be like!?

🙋🏻‍♂️🙋🏻‍♂️ We did! So we tried Virgin Voyages Scarlet Caribbean Holiday sailing on the Scarlet Lady!

🎄🎁 We really enjoyed the festive vibes, specialty menus, and holiday activities and shows.

Some of our favorites were:
🧣 Ugliy Sweater PJ party
🎄 Ornament decorating
📸 Ship decor & photo ops
🥗 Holiday menu at Extra Virgin - noteably the salad & cocktails
🍗 Holiday menu at Lucky Lotus - noteably the chicken lettuce wraps & cocktails
🍸 Holiday cocktail menu at Loose Cannon

📺 We have a FULL video coming Sunday so subscribe to our YouTube channel

We recently dined at Pinky’s by Vanderpump in the Flamingo hotel Las Vegas while in there for some concerts. 🦩🍸

Let us tell you, of all the times we’ve been to Vegas (which is a lot 🤣), this was some of the BEST FOOD we’ve ever had! 🥗🍔

Here’s what we had at Pinky’s by Vanderpump, the price, and our ranking:
🥂 Daddy Issues cocktail w/ vodka, white peach, and St. Germain - $23.95, 4.5/5
🍸Pump & Bump Caviar Martini - $34.95, 4/5
🥗 Parmesan Caesar Salad w/ crispy parm bowl - $18.95, 5/5
🍔 Piny’s Burger made w/ wagyu beef, special sauce, and topped with crispy onions - $25.95, 4.5/5
🦞Mini Lobster Rolls on toasted brioche - $29.95, 5/5

🌷📸 The vibe and the ambience is also top tier Vegas and they even come around and take your pics with a camera and can print the pics, old school!

🤩 We highly recommend putting Pinky’s by Vanderpump on your Las Vegas list of my try restaurants!

📍Pinky’s by Vanderpump
3555 Las Vegas Boulevard
South Flamingo, Las Vegas, NV 89109

🪩🩸Murder In The Manor is SUCH A VIBE and there’s a reason for the long line!

🛳️ If you’re going on Virgin Voyages newest ship Brilliant Lady you HAVE to get in line EARLY for Murder In The Manor.

‼️TIP: People were lining up almost 1 hour before showtimes, so if you don’t have that black band with Rockstar status, give yourself time.

This 80’s themed murder mystery show has ALL the elements you want in a show!
🎶🪩 80’s hit music mashed up with songs you know from today
🤹🏻‍♂️🎭 A stage and production set worthy of Broadway or Las Vegas
🍹🍹 A specialty featured cocktail to along with the vibes
💃🏻🕺🏻An amazing cast
