🚨Hey, Wanderers! New trip alert!

One of us is living the Xcel life right now… and it’s not Kelly 😅

For the next four days, Ryan will be onboard the brand new Celebrity Xcel cruise ship.

Follow along as he explores this cutting-edge ship!

If you have the chance to spend time with a local when you're traveling, take it. Margriet and Martin brought us into their Enkhuizen home and shared their stories. We snacked on cookies, espresso, and special family recipe drinks. So memorable!

When it's your first time in Amsterdam, a fresh stroopwafel is a top priority!

Höllgasse in Passau, Germany is "Artist Alley," home to galleries and artist workshops. It is unmistakable with its painted cobblestones marking the paths to these studios. We walked this beautiful Alley today with @vivacruises!

Today with @vivacruises we visited Salzburg, Austria. It's mostly known for 2 things: Mozart & The Sound of Music. But there's much more to explore in this historic city! One spot we visited was St. Peter Cemetery. The most gorgeous cemetery we've ever seen!

Today with @vivacruises we stopped in Krems, Austria. We checked out bikes from the ship and joined @InTheLoopTravel on a ride to neighboring Durnstein. There, we hiked up to the Durnstein castle ruins for some spectacular views of the town and the Danube below!

In Bratislava, Slovakia today w/ @vivacruises, Kelly's 6th sense kicked in & she found sweets. These Bratislavan roles are the perfect level of sweet. Horseshoe-shaped are filled with poppy seeds; crescent-shaped w/walnuts. Naturally, we tried one of each. 😋

Yesterday was the Hungarian Parliament Building from the Danube. Today from land! This iconic structure was completed in 1904. From this building on October 23, 1989, Hungary was declared a sovereign republic for the 1st time in its history.

Arriving in Budapest tonight with @vivacruises. Welcomed by the sight of Parliament illuminated gold and a trumpet solo from a #VIVACruises musician! 🤩

Against all rational thought, Ryan hurled his body into the frigid #Antarctic waters with @AlbaExpeditions' #PolarPlunge. Would you do it?

We're learning things here in #Antarctica with @AlbaExpeditions. For example, baby penguins are the CUTEST! 😍🐧😍🐧

It's hard to give a sense of the massive scale of #Antarctica. Mountains, glaciers, and icebergs are all so BIG here. This iceberg, for example, is at least as tall as our 9-deck-high ship! 😳

Today in #Antarctica began with kayaking! It was great to be right at sea level alongside the massive icebergs we've seen this whole trip. And just look at that gorgeous landscape! 👀

Today was our 1st full day in #Antarctica with @AlbaExpeditions and it was incredible! This morning we boated among glaciers and followed leopard seals on the hunt. This afternoon & evening we've spotted more humpback whales than we've seen all our lives! #travel #whales #cruise

Thanks to a relatively smooth Drake Passage, we were able to make a bonus landing at Half Moon Island today! We have begun to understand the massive scale of #Antarctica, as well as some of its cutest inhabitants! 🐧

Day 1 of sailing to #Antarctica with @AlbaExpeditions means crossing the Drake Passage. Depending on weather, that can mean a #DrakeShake or a #DrakeLake. Fortunately for us, it was the latter. But that still meant 10-13 foot waves. One more day of this! #Travel #cruise

Sailing out of #Ushuaia, Argentina today with @AlbaExpeditions. So excited to spend the next 9 days exploring the rugged beauty #Antarctica! Follow for more #travel content. #cruise #cruiseship #travelling
