Clifton and Shay wrap a whirlwind Euro summer aboard Virgin Voyages’ Scarlet Lady—missing flights, catching feelings, and chasing that legendary hammock from TikTok. From Barcelona to Palma de Mallorca, Cannes, Corsica, and Livorno (hello, Pisa & Florence), they rate the ship, rave about made-to-order eats (The Wake’s “cake-level” French toast), and roast the port-time fine print that turns “8–5” into “9–4:30.” There’s a Corsican beach day with a farmers’ market haul, a record-heat Rome sprint, and a Prada price-tag plot twist that could fund a small car. Also: karaoke rooms, trivia at all hours, an adults-only crowd (did we crash a gay cruise?), and staff so good they bump the score. Final verdict: organization meh, everything else chef’s kiss. Cruising with CliShay just set the bar.
