Creator's Key Takeaways

this is Navigator my new favorite ship I will say

the key lime pie because everybody who's loyal to Royal on Tik Tok and other places always say you have to get the key line P

we have completely stopped which is very strange this has never happened before

I am really excited because not only did I get it for the exact same price that I was going to pay for it on land but I also emitted taxes because we are in international waters

Creator's Tips & Advice

Consider renting a car instead of Uber for side trips between cruises to save on surge pricing
Bring sun protection for Catalina Island as it can be sunny and mid-60s
Use crosswalks in Ensenada as cars go fast and you have limited time to cross

YouTube Video Description

🌟 Join us as we embark on a new adventure aboard Royal Caribbean's Navigator of the Seas! After an epic 14-day Panama Canal cruise on the Celebrity Summit, we spent two thrilling days in Anaheim, California, before heading to the Port of Los Angeles for a 4-night cruise to Catalina Island and Ensenada, Mexico! 🚢 Embarkation Day Highlights: Fresh off a day at Disneyland and our previous cruise, we boarded the Navigator of the Seas for a relaxing start. Watched a beautiful sail away from our balcony, soaking in the breathtaking views. Enjoyed a delicious meal in the Main Dining Room and caught an amazing ice skating show at Studio B. Sea Day Fun: Kicked off the morning with a hearty breakfast at the buffet. Laughed our way through the World’s Sexiest Man competition and enjoyed some casino action. Ended the night with a spectacular 70's show on the Royal Promenade! Catalina Island Adventures: Tendered to Santa Catalina Island and explored the charming town of Avalon. Visited the historic Catalina Casino and enjoyed a tasty lunch at Antonio’s Pizzeria. Wrapped up the day with a delightful dinner at Jamie's Italian by Jamie Oliver onboard. Exploring Ensenada, Mexico: Greeted by the loud cries of sea lions as we pulled into port early in the morning. Explored the beautiful bay area and enjoyed a mouthwatering meal at Birrieria La Guadalajara. Ended our night with a seafood dinner at Hooked and a surprise whale sighting!
