| 0:00.0 | And unfortunately they arrived the day we got back. |
| 0:02.3 | So that was kind of like a double blow. |
| 0:04.6 | It was too sad getting off the cruise. |
| 0:06.2 | And then the first thing you open is your luggage label. |
| 0:08.4 | We're just like, oh, okay. |
| 0:30.7 | Yeah. Welcome back, everybody, this week's bonus episode of the DCL Duo podcast. |
| 0:37.2 | And we have been waiting a little while to have this guest on, but we are so excited that he is joining us. He just completed his first |
| 0:38.6 | ever Disney cruise on one of the UK staycation cruises over in the UK on the Disney Magic, and |
| 0:44.3 | he is himself a prolific cruiser and cruise photographer, and so we are excited to welcome |
| 0:49.2 | all the way from the United Kingdom, Andrew. Welcome, Andrew. Hello. Hi, guys. Thank you for having me on. Yeah, we're so excited to chat with you. So we bumped into Andrew on social media because he posts some of the most fabulous photos of ships in and around Southampton near his home, I believe. And it was great to see some of his photos of the Disney ships over in Southampton early this year, provide a little bit of glimmer of hope for us as those ships started sailing again, and we started to see them in Southampton, even ahead of their sailing. And so it was great to see. He is on Twitter over, his handle is Cruise Ship P, I believe, on Twitter. And so I really highly recommend heading over and checking that out, either his Twitter or his Instagram. And so, |

| 1:51.6 | So I've always been, I've been taking photographs of various ships for, for 15 odd years now. |
| 1:57.9 | And I write for them for various magazines. |
| 1:59.9 | I've written stuff on cruise ships for |
| 2:01.7 | magazines and other stuff. And so I've been invited on board a few ships and that's kind of where |
| 2:06.8 | the kind of cruising and the sort of love and the interesting cruising came along. So I also like |
| 2:11.0 | the technical side of the ships as well as, you know, the aesthetics and how they look and everything. |
| 2:16.5 | So for someone that sort of |
| 2:18.8 | writes, I've not been on too many cruises, I've been on a couple of P&O cruises. Obviously, being in |
| 2:23.8 | Southampton, they're kind of easy to, easy to get on quite, you know, quite easy. My sort of first |
