I love these FUN beautiful people, this is like Family to me, thank you for sharing William and Lisa

[@yvonneacosta2539]

Oh wow! Glad I was eating while watching this video. It all looks so good. Can't wait to visit Catalina some day.

[@billandlisa]

Both the pizza and Acai bowl was so good!

[@jaeko9688]

14:27 Lisa’s mouth was so happy it was crying tears of pepperoni grease

[@annzalewski2562]

Bill you are so funny and silly!

[@rich56ca]

I can’t believe how much I love watching you guys eat.

[@brodieellis2545]

I know I salivate!

[@laurawachler1403]

"It's art, look it up." PRICELESS!🤣🤣🤣

[@Koicee8]

Bill laughing at that picture made me laugh to. 🤣

[@justjudycrafting7401]

I just found your channel and you two are as cute as you can be. I love how Lisa calls Bill Baby. See you next video.

[@billandlisa]

Thanks for subbing! 😃

[@mmirl9859]

Looks amazing.. Bull is so excited

[@peacekelly1128]

OK when you popped out your pinky you cracked me up. Lol! I think the cat with the daisy is pretty darn funny too. 🤣🤣

[@pattyyoshimura9803]

I would laugh at that picture of that cat pooping a daisy too! Haha

[@bballerforever]

I’ve been to Catalina Island a few times, taking the ferry from Long Beach. Didn’t know that cruise ships dock at the Island. I had a pretty good seafood lunch, with a great ocean view, at the Bluewater Grill - you might want to try it next time!

[@martywinter7399]

The orange fish you saw was a Garabaldi, it is the state fish. Enjoy all your travels.

[@billandlisa]

Thanks!

[@rohashimoto2774]

"Sea days" My family took the interisland cruise in Hawaii. It took us a whole day to sale from Oahu to Kauai. At one point we asked the crew, if we're going to Kauai why are we sailing southeast and not northwest. Lol,

[@lindacave3135]

I don't know which one I laughed harder at, the cat pooping the daisy or Bill laughing at the cat pooping the daisy.

[@ylana4444]

After those beers you guys just slowed down …lol..slower speech and you both sounded super full! Pizza and beer paralysis! Great video thank you!!

[@blancanavarro2546]

thanks.

[@RDTaken]

My girlfriend & I are doing this same cruise but instead of the sea day being first, it’s last! We’re going in November and looking forward to it.

[@billandlisa]

You’ll have a great time!

Simply loved this fantastic video. Thanks Bill and Lisa

[@SamWozniak]

Really love your videos! Top 10 favorite KZbin channel.

[@TripleAM19]

When you were at sea yesterday, I assumed you were already heading to MX. It is surprising that you were only heading to Catalina Island. Were you cruising in circles?!?! HAHA!! Another great review and looking forward to Day 4!

[@titasmom678]

I thought the same...how can getting to Catalina take so long?!?

[@immakatlady8243]

Cruise lines sometimes have to go out to sea (international waters) to meet certain requirements. I don’t know about this cruise, but if they wanted to open the casino, they’d definitely have to be out at sea.

[@billandlisa]

That's Royal's itinerary, it's different that Carnival's. Guessing Catalina can only accommodate 1 cruise ship at a time? We dunno.

[@titasmom678]

@@immakatlady8243 I think you are right. Casinos can only operate in Intl waters! Ok RCCL you are forgiven!

[@JoshRachael]

Saw the Malibu and Cokes, have you guys tried Amaretto Cokes? It is our current go to now, like cherry 🍒 cokes 😋

[@billandlisa]

Haven't tried that combo, but we like the coconut vibe. lol

[@JoshRachael]

@@billandlisa Will have to try it out

[@gingerleegirl6697]

Bill that is definitely the Chrysler logo. I have one and it’s on the hood.

[@billandlisa]

Thank you, Ginger! 👍🏼😃

[@aly3287]

We never been to Catalina...thanks for the tips! That ball thingy in the promenade usually inflates and deflates. That has to be a wig on the guy sitting behind Bill at 29:29. haha!! Did you guys watch any of the production or ice shows? The ice shows are not to be missed!

[@billandlisa]

We had reservations to see the ice show, but we knocked out.

[@Jesusisfaithful22]

[@marcelladacey8928]

Keep it classy, pinky's up! boop 😂

[@anneim7853]

Thank you for the videos on board Navigator of the Seas! Which of the two cruises did you enjoy? Carnival or Royal? Are you planning to go on a Disney cruise soon?

[@billandlisa]

Both have high points. Royal has better included food in the buffet and main dining room. Haven't tried any of Royal's upcharge restaurants yet. That said, we're both Carnival fans, almost at Platinum level.

[@glavegas0010]

Loving the videos. We board a week from Monday. Lisa, we asked about you yesterday and was told that you were off. ☹By the way, Princess has added the Sapphire Princess to Los Angeles as a last minute summer program. $1.00 deposits if you book now. We booked an August Ensenada/San Francisco five night cruise. 🙂

[@billandlisa]

She's off Tues & Wed, sorry you missed her! Wow, low deposit!

[@MathewLauren]

Oh that pizza looks incredible

[@amybutler9886]

I always pictured large tables in the formal dining room where you would sit and mingle with other cruisers. It appears instead there are small tables to fit just the couple or perhaps party of four. Is dining with the Captain and other cruisers just a figment of my Loveboat memories?

[@billandlisa]

This ship, one dining room, 3 decks high. Early, late, and your time dining. The big round tables were in the middle area, you can still request to be seated among other cruisers mostly for the early and late dining folks (so food service is delivered at the same time). We had the 'your time' option.

[@scottscaneh]

It's the F^&*(ing Catalina wine mixer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@JoshRachael]

Dang we ate at both NDMK and Maggie’s Blue Rose. Bummer they were both closed on the day you went. We are so jealous that you had such great weather though!

[@billandlisa]

Luckily, we had both before, but not on this trip. lol. All good though, loved that pizza! Best weather we had of all the times we've went.

[@sweeney0558]

The pizza really looked great

[@darrylk808]

You left SoCal and it took 3 days to get to Catalina? Are you paying by the mile? 😁 Like taking a cab in Las Vegas.🤣 And weren't you guys there last month?

[@billandlisa]

4 months ago on the Carnival Miracle.

[@jc2333]

You’re on a boat like Andy Samberg says. Catalina is beautiful. The food looks good. I’ve pizza from Little Caesars deep dish. Your pizza looks better. I like the lamb and shrimp.

[@NoBSEateries]

Such a fun time! The açaí and pizza looks delicious! -S

[@mindysmom6132]

Thank you for showing everything about Royal Caribbean! I’ve been wanting to cruise on their ship. Hubby now wants me to look into it. Have you both ever cruised up to Alaska? We do want to do that. Bill and Lisa…..It was amazing meeting you both a couple of hours ago. I wanted to take a picture with you, but I didn’t want you to think that I was some crazy Asian. 🤗

[@billandlisa]

You should’ve!!! We don’t bite……hard. Lol

[@mykai2003]

Those orange fish are Garibaldi.

[@Bens_Tunes50]

Bigger boat than the Titanic for sure - :)

[@msavp4481]

I’ve always wanted to go to Catalina - years ago I was told of a great fish and chips spot there. Have you ever had fish and chips on Catalina? Wonder if it’s even still there?

[@billandlisa]

Saw a fish & chip place on the pier, but never had it. Also, lots of other seafood restaurants there that probably offer fish & chips too.

[@James18925]

You guys know your Pizza I appreciate you

[@samtheman4958]

Great Video Lisa and Bill. I enjoyed your tour of Catalina Island. The pizza looked yummy. Did you get a cookie or two from the cookie store? Have a safe journey

[@billandlisa]

We didn’t this trip, but they are delicious!

[@ginapearson3601]

❣️🥰❣️

[@tenkkhan4676]

My kid loves swimming. Is the pool water temperature swimmable this time of year? Are slides open? Thanks

[@billandlisa]

Slides, pools, and jacuzzis all open. We didn’t check out the pools so we don’t know how warm/cold it was.

[@lindaperryman2888]

I ate the Tiger Shrimp also. It was good but I was expecting more shrimp. Have you guys ever hosted a group cruise on the West Coast?

[@AlusW.]

You could order an extra entrée if you wanted more shrimp.

[@billandlisa]

@Linda. Group cruise? lol. We’re not at Tony’s level from La Lido Loca yet.

By the way Bill. Those rubber buoyees are called “fenders”

[@billandlisa]

Thanks!

[@winniepoohbear8916]

The staff in the restaurant seem very attentive! Do you tip at the table or after the cruise? Or do you tip at all?

[@billandlisa]

We prepaid the gratuities before the cruise. That said, you can add additional tip to any person who went above and beyond at Guest Services or simply hand them cash.

[@princessjofthei.e.886]

Hey!! I have a couple of questions: I was under the impression that all of the food on the cruise ship was included. Why did you have to pay? Also, how many hours do they allow you to be off of the ship?

[@billandlisa]

All foods in the buffet and main dining rooms are included in the price of the cruise. Additional charges are for specialty restaurants. Time at port depends on the port and ship's schedule, but generally from the morning to late afternoon for most ports we've been to.

[@spillthwinesfinds1244]

Eeeew pizza sauce soup. Lol

[@dwightlooi]

Didn't you guys just visit Catalina with Carnival a couple of days ago? Anyway, the problem with all the US west coast cruises (including Mexico, Alaska and Hawaii) is that they are all done with old to very old ships. it seems that all the nice ships from every cruise line are never deployed to the US west coast. They are all in the Caribbean with forays to the Mediterranean and even northern Europe, but they are NEVER on the west coast.

[@billandlisa]

Not all true, Carnival Panorama is pretty new out of LA. Carnival Radiance went through a refurb just recently. That said, Florida seems to get most all the cool new ships from all cruise lines.

[@billandlisa]

Last cruise to Catalina Island & Ensenada was on the Carnival Miracle 4 months ago.

[@dwightlooi]

@@billandlisa I didn't know they have the Panorama on the West Coast, that's the newest ship ever -- 2nd newest Carnival ship after the Madigras.

[@FoodPaparazzi]

Do you get to sit anywhere you want in the main dining room or are there assigned seating?

[@billandlisa]

You’re seated at a table assigned by the Host. I’d imagine if you don’t like the table, you can request another spot.

[@jeanettewong8810]

its been a while since i have been on a cruise. Do they still allow one to have multiple entrees at one sitting ? seems like what was free the last time i was on a cruise, like johnny rockets , is extra cost now

[@billandlisa]

You can still order more than one app, main or dessert if you want.

[@troyellis8692]

I like your shirt Bill!

[@nicholasmuzyka2579]

Can you order multiple plates of food in the dining room?

[@billandlisa]

Yes, we've seen other tables, doesn't seem to be a problem.

[@Myislandtravel]

Do you think the Navigator was better than a Carnival ship? I’m debating on going on that vs. the Carnival Radiance with the same itinerary.

[@AlusW.]

Take Royal Caribbean, you will be glad you did!

you show so many delicious dishes but you don't give pricing.. that would be so helpful,,, The açaí bowl looked great but we have no idea if it was $7 or $25 for example..

[@billandlisa]

Hi Evan. We said it in the video at the 4:47 mark, but it was $10. Typically in our videos, if we mention the price, we won't caption it, and vice versa. And, for the pizza and beers, price was mentioned at the 15:15 mark and that was $29.
