I was so happy to hear Dee singing karaoke! I think we should be able to enjoy this at least once a cruise. I can’t wait to hear Jay singing, I know it won’t be sweet Caroline lol

Dee sounded fabulous on her karaoke song!!! Wow!!! ❤

And another adventure begins! Yay! Happy sailing!❤

You crack me up 😂

She sounded real good!!!

16 days!!! Oh this is exciting! I like the long ones, yay!

I am excited about this Cruise

I think it’s interesting to see the massive amount of supplies being loaded on board!!!! So much food!

Are you both retired that you can only cruise? If so, I think that's terrific 🎉! Dee, I enjoy hearing you sing and I love hearing you laugh, Jay! You make us smile and to escape our days! Another great video 😊!

Even-those sounds of loading get me excited whenI am about to cruise. Its all part of it😊🚢

Watching a movie on the open ocean is my favorite evening activity! I missed it when sailing in NCL and cannot wait to get back on a Carnival ship for Dive In movies!

Brought back wonderful memories seeing the cabin again

Perfect timing🎉Bon voyage 🎉

There are motion lights at night. We were just on the Emerald. The staff in its entirety were excellent. Have a wonderful time

We have been looking forward to this series. We did a 15 day from San Francisco to Hawaii last year and it was marvelous. There was always something to do and the time flew by way too fast.

Wow, that food menu scrolled so fast I couldn't see it all even with 4 or 5 pause, rewind, attempts, etc.

Thanks for showing sail away!!!

Wow you can sing Dee 😀

Interesting to see the dining room and other food on Princess. Having just come off a 10 day Carnival Miracle cruise from San Francisco to Alaska, I can say the Carnival menu looks like it takes the food up a notch. Even the taco bar on Princess looked subpar, looks like prepackaged tortillas, nothing special, same with their burger station. Good to know, thanks for showing them!

So glad you’re on the Emerald Princess. I’ll be sailing on her from NY in September, very excited! Thanks for the vlog, looking forward to more!

I am curious to see how this cruise goes. I have been on many Princess cruises, which I loved, but was very disappointed with the Emerald Princess. The big problem was the food. Always underseasoned and dry. At the time we chalked it up to post pandemic but based on your first review, I am not sure if they have really addressed this issue. Princess take note to this Vlog series!

So happy that sock of the day returned. Lol. Hope you enjoyed your trip

Have a great time. Loved this ship & our trip last December to the Panama Canal. Ocean to ocean.

Look forward to this series thanks for the videos

This makes me want to book a Princess cruise.

A year ago February we left on the Majestic Princess. There were two or three fire boats spraying water off the side and it was wonderful but far less crowded than your cruise! Love the horn!!

We are doing this exact cruise March 2024 😊 I can't wait to see your other videos ❤

Can’t wait to watch this series. We’re doing the same cruise in October on the Sapphire Princess. I’ve never been and can’t wait. The Emerald is a beautiful ship, enjoy. We were just on her for a 5 night 4th of July cruise to Ensenada/SF.

Love this series already. I love the song Torn Dee!! I need to add it to my karaoke repertoire. 2AM??? WOW. Lol definitely a new worst dish ever candidate.

Emerald Princess was our very first cruise some years past .. it’s what got us into Cruising… We were blown away the moment we stepped onto the ship.. floating hotel was the first thing that came to mind.. but not just any Hotel.. it blew our minds.. this was way before the mega ships were even a thought ;-)

Jay's review of the hawaiian luau pork is hilarious

Thanks editing Jay for the LA footage and the awesome background music 🎶 🎶 🎵 great blog today! Thanks so much Jay and Dee 😁😁😁 ding dong! Make sure y'all eat some salty dogs 🐕!!! Hihi

Sounds awesome 👏! My husband and I are doing this trip in October but on the Sapphire Princess.

Enjoy your vids!

Why not call your dinner review just what you said “Let’s Dish On It”?

Looking forward to this series. We'll be on Emerald in September out of NY going to New England and Canada. So far, the ship looks nice. Keep the videos coming.

That pork n'bean dish in the MDR.... UGH! Princess what were you thinking? Honestly, I've taken a 10 and 11 day cruise with Princess this year already and food quality has come DOWN. I'm taking this same Hawaiian cruise/ship in 5 days. First cruise that long and first to Hawaii, so I look forward to the rest of your videos!

Thanks for the vid! Wow...people complain about Carnival and yet I'd take a cabin on pretty much any Carnival ship over the one you all had on this one. Doable of course, but dang.

You guys almost have 60,000 subscribers.

Love your videos! Hope to cruise with you some day. I am going on Emerald Princess next year to Greenland. The reviews of late are not good for Princess or that ship. A lot say never again (Princess). What are your thoughts? Greenland is a bucket list trip so I am going regardless. All the best! Congrats on #100!!

For the menu wrap-up... Jawin' Eats (with Jay & Dee) 😊

True Texas Chili doesn't have beans!!! Beans are beans and chili is chili and never the two shall meet!!! :)

Our Chow review

Dish it or how’s the dish with parodeejay? 😅 this is an older one so probably have a name for it by now but I’m glad you do the chats about the food. I saw that pork and was like gross…nothing Hawaii about that plate

Got it thank you. Duh me. Lol lol.

i'm pretty late catching up with these vlogs, but did you guys ever decide on a name for the food segment at the end?

We have this planned for 2025- couldn't decide between Princess and Carnival

very nice video. How would you rate this ship

No love boat on leaving 😢

Did you stay at a hotel near LAX or the port? What transportation did you use from LAX to the port? Always enjoy your videos!

Do you have a hotel recommendation for flying into Los Angeles, going out of Long Beach/LA port? TIA!

How was boarding in San Pedro? I am from So Cal and have never left from a local port.

Now I remember why I hate karaoke!

When I saw the Hawaiian Pork on the menu I hoped you got it. Wow, how awful. You are going to have to let the wait staff know when something is that bad so they can report it and it won't come out again. I am afraid I have never been a huge fan of the food on Princess so I hope it improves for you.

When did you two do this trip? Thanks.

We were laughing when we saw the pork with beans🤣 That's not Hawaiian. Maybe at a bbq or English breakfast. Total miss😂 I like ding dong dish, a play on the ding dong ditch game from childhood ( although I was a good kid and didnt do that).

I don’t like the food on the Emerald, it’s a nice older ship but they need to work on the food quality and the entertainment on that ship

Dee was great! The others were embarrassingly sad. I just don’t get the appeal of Karaoke I guess.
