Welcome to the final day of our incredible cruise journey, and it was a wild one! 😭🚢
Today, we dock in Bruges, Belgium, for one last adventure. From wandering the stunning medieval market square to seeing the city's iconic canals, Bruges is a fairytale.
🛶 PRO TIP: If you’re heading to Bruges, the shuttle is the absolute best way to see the city. You can book the exact transfer I took here (includes free 24h cancellation): 👉 https://www.getyourguide.com/zeebrugge-l95294/return-cruise-shuttle-service-zeebrugge-to-bruges-t75029/?partner_id=JHVEBEL&utm_medium=online_publisher&cmp=TransferToBruges
While in town, I visited the famous The Old Chocolate House for their legendary Giant Hot Chocolate. It’s massive, rich, and exactly what I needed before the journey home! (Full dedicated video of the chocolate house coming soon—subscribe so you don't miss it!) 🍫✨
The Journey Home: Our final night on Independence of the Seas was quite a battle. We were sailing straight back into the UK during Storm Amy, and the North Sea was incredibly choppy. Stick around to see the final meals and how I handled the seasickness as the ship navigated the first major storm of the season.
