SoCal Fun In The Sun
США
Добавлен 8 ноя 2022
Simply fun things to do, see, and explore in sunny Southern California.
ruclips.net/channel/UCxVoO1MWoDbKRNV8xTrl7HQ
Two retired brothers, Randy and Sam go on adventures together exploring southern California's sights, events, culture, food, entertainment, and anything interesting to us that might be of interest to other like-minded folks.
A goal in our journeys is to speak to an audience, particularly seniors and anyone, on a tight fixed income, who have settled into believing that you just can't go out and experience life like others. We are daring to go outside our own comfort zones to learn and achieve how to experience every travel adventure and entertainment experience that our horizons expand on. We hope in sharing our experiences that you too can be encouraged to dream and live all the possibilities you might now be aware of in thoroughly enjoying travel in your senior years. and hopefully, without Boundaries!

Two Senior Brothers Have Fun at the LA Comicon 2023
Randy and I have a history in our lives in going to comicons. So, yes we are fans. This con was in 2023 downtown L.A. and we had a great time seeing all the cosplay, exploring booths and mostly enjoying interacting with the people.
Took us a while in getting this one up for you all to see, because we started hitting the cruise treks soon after.
If you're a con goer let us know in the comments. And if you'd like to see more content from all the many different kinds of events that go on in the southern California area...like DragonCon! :)

Loving your videos! Halarious at times 😂
Thanks for the great tips
Loved meeting you guys! Best night that night with all the events and shows.
A great shout out to Kitra and Peter at Ordinary Adventures for setting us on the path to find the Lobster BLT at the Naughty Fox! That's one memorable sandwich! You can find their channel video here: ruclips.net/video/B8N2LubKAnw/видео.html
Have you tried out the Lobster sandwich too? What did you think?
Hi! Love your videos. Please, please don't touch food or serving spoons if you are not going to serve yourself. Stirring the dishes around is not acceptable. 😂😅
GAH GAH ball. A favorite of day camp kids.
Thank you for info on the game. A new one since I was a camp kid. Sam
If cruise lines were compelled to give even token compensation for every erroneous announcement they made, they'd be out of business.
Hey guys! Thanks for the shout out!! My son wants to meet you now too! Next trip, QUANTUM of the seas!
Nice meeting you. Say hi to your son. Have fun on Quantum. Let us know how you like it.
It was great meeting you guys on the ship this week! You’re so friendly and gave us so much to look forward to before getting on. Make more videos!!! Thanks for the photo!!
Enjoy your videos, but remember you screwed up not carnival
You guys are too funny. I enjoyed your video of your Firenze cruise. The impromptu dancing was great. Your jokes too. I’m sure your fellow passengers had a blast with you two in tow 🎉👍👍🎉
Thanks so much!!
Great video
Thank you!
Where new subscribers and we love your channel you guys are so entertaining and you actually remind us of someone we were very fond of huell Howser
He Thank you for subscribing! Sam here. Not personally familiar with Huell Howser, after looking him up I'm doubly honored that we somehow are reminders of him to you. I love personal interest stories and you'll see more of that coming up in our recent cruise on the Utopia of the Seas.
How far was it “estimate” to walk from the ship to downtown? I’m going in sept
Hi! Walking from the ship port takes about 20 minutes to the Black Market entrance that you see in the video which leads you out towards the downtown area. From there, say, to Papas & Bear restaurant, the downtown area where most people like to take the bus too, is about a 30 minute walk total .
Enjoyed your video
Thank you! We appreciate it. :)
What a coincidence, me and my girlfriend's stateroom will be #2331 (Balcony Stateroom) on this same ship, for 2025 cruise to Catalina and Ensenada. Right across from your stateroom. Thanks for your video. We loved it.
Thank you. Hope that you really enjoy your cruise.
love this video
Thank you for your comment. We appreciate it!
They seemed to keep all the annoyances of a Costa cruise.
We really liked the ship and the Italian decor. I think we will probably sail on it again next year. Thank you so much for your comment.
I love your channel!
We appreciate the kind comment. Thank you so much!
I really enjoyed your video! Thank you!
Thanks for watching. We have 3 more cruises coming up in August and September Hope you enjoy those also.
Hello, nice video, very beautiful places, wonderful board tour, thank you for sharing, friendly like, good luck and all the best, have a nice evening🥰🥰😍😍🤗🤗😉😉
Hi, thanks for your kind comment. Hope you have a nice evening also.
Nice video, did you know after exiting the Fish Market, if you cross the Main Street, the next street up is Calle Primera (first street) and on Primera is where all the tourist shopping, bars, pharmacies, restaurants, etc.. You can take Primera street all the way back to the cruise ship. Basically you are making a big circle on the way to the ship.
Hello, we new about Calle Primera, but we have been there 3 times already and were not in the mood to drink or shop. But thanks for bringing it up. Hope you enjoyed the rest.
Such a great video. Grumpy men videos are always the funniest 😂 cruise on and keep complaining 🛳️🤣
Thank you! Will do! When I was younger I didn't realize how easy grumpy is!
@@socalfuninthesun hahaha🤪love your videos. Just got off the Firenze and had the onion soup and thanks for the soup eating tip!
Diane here: TRULY jacuzzi is not family pool no bathtub--is only for adult therapeutic purposes/needs + no way is 75 deg hot for hot tub--did u complain???
Hi Diane, thanks for your comment. It was luke warm in the afternoon. We came back in the evening and it was about the same. We have a hot tub at home and can feel 95-100 degrees. The tub on the ship was more in the 80 - 85 range. This is the one on the back of the ship that I erroneously called the Adult area. We didn't complain, we just didn't try it again. Hopefully it got better for others. Love to hear from you again. Have you taken the Firenze cruise?
Awesome video, keep up the great work, Sam and Randy!!!
Thanks so much. Very glad you enjoyed it. There is one more in the Firenze Series. It is the Last Day at sea returning to Los Angeles. It should be up on Monday, 6/10.
The pool is not the adult pool 😂. There’s an adult section at the front of the ship called Serenity but it only has jacuzzis and no pool
Hi DJ. Yes, you are right. I got the tubs mixed up. I guess I had a a Senior Moment. Thanks for your comment.
I was wondering why the adult section was crawling with kids!
Fun video! Looking forward to my cruise in August
Hello, thanks for your comment. It will be warmer in August, you will be able to enjoy the ship more. Have a great trip and send us a photo or comment if you like.
Hey all guys, it was fun chatting with you on the tender boat. In the Chiefs and Disney sweaters. Hope to see you again on a future cruise!
Yes! It would be fun to run into the two of you again. Thanks for dropping by to saying Hi. (Sam)
Yes, we are going to cruise some more. We have tickets for Utopia in August. Nice hearing from you.
I couldn’t watch past the point of your continued complaining and not taking accountability for your own mistakes at check in. Your boarding pass clearly states a half hour arrival time. That means show up at the terminal in that window of time. It doesn’t say that you are getting on the ship in that arrival window, especially if you didn’t do what you needed to do at home check in. You put yourself in that long line. Same thing for the plastic water bottles. There is a list of what you can and can’t bring that you are supposed to read before you sail. Your mistake shouldn’t make you whiny and annoyed it just makes this video annoying.
Sorry, we didn't mean to annoy anyone, we thought our mistakes could be helpful to other seniors.
We were early on the arrival time because of L.A. traffic concerns. We only wound up in the Customer Service line because when we purchased the tickets we selected the California ID under security info and showed up with that and a passport. They lady in line said it should be changed to passport as the ID was not acceptable, even though it was listed. So we had to wait.
Did you hear them own it and say they needed to pay more attention to details like no plastic bottles and be careful when filling out forms? I heard grown ups being disappointed about extra time wasted but also taking ownership and helping other people avoid the same mistake.
Thanks for sharing your experiences on the Firenze, modeled after the glorious city of Florence! Looking forward to sailing on her. The MDR looks lovely (sounds a little loud), and I'm thinking that the additional weight of marble would be quite cost-prohibitive in this era of fuel-saving measures. Ship sure looks beautiful!
Our pleasure! thanks for watching
Cool Video!
Thank you!
Does an enhanced id work in place of passport?
No sorry! By definition, an Enhanced ID, also known as an Enhanced Driver’s License (EDL), is a type of identification card issued by some states in the United States. It is a combined driver’s license and passport card that can be used for international land and sea travel to select countries within the Western Hemisphere. But... Carnival security does not accept that. They say "anyone can get a drivers license, and the ID is good to get into Mexico, but not to re-enter the U.S."
That dance towards the ship on embarkation day is the best! You just know it’s going to be a great adventure
And it was! :)
I was on this cruise April 19-26 and loved it! Great video! Really highlights the fun and food from the cruise
Glad you enjoyed it!
