Come along with us as we board Royal Caribbean’s Independence of the Seas in Bayonne, New Jersey for the first day of our cruise to Canada. In this first-day cruise vlog, we’ll take you onboard, show you our balcony cabin, grab lunch at the Windjammer buffet, watch sailaway from Bayonne, and have our first dinner in the Main Dining Room. And then there’s an unexpected surprise involving some of our electronics that we definitely weren’t expecting! We’re just getting started, so join us for Day 1 of our Independence of the Seas cruise and see what the ship, the food, the cabin and the first day of the journey are like. If you enjoy cruise vlogs, ship tours, cabin tours, Royal Caribbean, and following along with our travels, be sure to subscribe to Laurie & Gary Cruise so you don't miss the rest of the trip. #RoyalCaribbean #IndependenceOfTheSeas #CruiseVlog
