Yeah she loves the park, always smiling and wanting to try anything new 😊 She’s definitely a precious gift to me 🥰

Yeah that’s the point, you want good value for what you’re paying. A lot of people have a great time here but for us it was a money grabbing experience and a huge let down, especially after we paid so much for the “special” tickets as well.

@@HelenHollywoodVlogs yeah does not surprise me what you find with most places is that the popular places are the worst as they just jump on the tourist bandwagon. where as there will be so much better hidden gems if you look hard enough.

Yeah Southampton was such a lovely town, very laid back and peaceful, beautiful beaches and lots of pretty homes to look at. We did go to Sauble as my husband went there a lot as a kid with his dad. But I do prefer Southampton 👌🏻 I’ve had a few people say that Sauble isn’t what it used to be unfortunately.

Thank you so much 😊 We can’t wait to get it done and finally go out camping in it 🤩

@@HelenHollywoodVlogs You're Welcome 😁🤗

Ahh thank you ☺️

It wasn’t too bad to be fair, Shane enjoyed it ( to an extent haha ) and our friend helped us out too. I think it was done in just a couple hours 😊

You don’t wanna know haha 😝

Ahh thank you 😊

Thank you ☺️

Yeah it does, it really changes the look of it 😁

Thanks, yeah we are loving how it’s turning out so far 😁 And we forgot about the roller untill the last minute 😂 I think with the foam on the plate, it didn’t match the new plate we were putting on? Can’t quite remember the actual reason Shane took it off lol 😊

Yeah he’s a great looking van - and even more so with the pop top now on and all the windows too ( videos to come ) We’ve heard mixed things about the AddBlue, I just hope we don’t get any big issues.

The garage changed the wet belt for us before they let us take it away. They did a couple other jobs as well ( pump etc )

@HelenHollywoodVlogs thankyou for your reply , that’s reassuring to hear - I used to go into Exeter diesels a lot back in the day , be strict with your servicing / oil changes . Happy travels.

If you’re planning on going and just staying down on the main floor, drinking and dancing, then it should be a fun night. But the staff will expect huge tips, even if you’ve paid a premium to get inside. It’s potentially a great night for most people, I wanted it to be but our experience was just really disappointing.

It's amazing

Yeah we don’t like the small screen either. We ordered a double din radio ( think that’s what it’s called ) before we picked the van up. So it’s a much bigger screen and it’s a “smart” one too. We will be doing a video of the installation of that soon enough 😁 I can’t stand standard radio systems lol.

Have the AA looked after the wiring after they decommissioned it

@@vwgolffancarreviews7111 yeah it’s been thoroughly looked after. We have a full service history of the van as well. We are the first people to own it since the AA had it. It went to a garage in Exeter. Luckily, they serviced it before it hey let us have it and they changed the wet belt for us and a few other bits as well, which saved us a £1200 job. And it only has 65,000 miles which is great for the year.

​@@HelenHollywoodVlogsthats will be a good Van to live in

@@vwgolffancarreviews7111 yeah it’s going to be awesome once we’ve got it fully done. It’s going to take a while, but at least when we have the basics done ( insulated and carpeted) that means we can camp in it for race weekends or random weekends away.

This was January 2022 - there were still loads of restrictions in place

Ahh thank you so much Rob 😁 🥰 I still feel excited now when I look at it, watching it come together bit by bit, getting excited at the thought of all the adventures to come. We can’t wait to carry on sharing our journey in our Bumblebee 🤩

Vegas is way better for sure. I’ve been a couple times and seen a show each time which was really enjoyable and worth the money

Thanks 😁

Oh what’s that, never heard of it?

@@HelenHollywoodVlogs it attaches to a drill and cuts sheet metal. Not expensive. Leaves a much nicer edge and follows the line.

Yeah you need your passport and you also need an ESTA or a visa - if you don’t have those, you won’t be able to pass through the American security checkpoint unfortunately. You also have to pay a little fee which is around $6. But it depends on where you’re from. If you’re an American or Canadian citizen, the rules are different and I think then all you need is a passport

@@HelenHollywoodVlogs thank you for replying!

@@arianasuarez3011 No worries at all 😊

Aww your message was sad to read, because I feel your pain for wanting and longing for “those good old days” I understand what you mean, remembering the good old days of childhood. My husband came here as a kid with his dad during the summers and has lots of fond memories. I would have loved to see this place back in the day 😮

Yeah I don’t think of beaches when I think of Canada, and all the beaches are a part of a gigantic lake 😮 it’s so big it looks like the ocean 🌊 Definitely get yourself over there when you get a chance, it’s lovely and so are the people 😊

Thank you 😊 And yeah the views from my dads house are stunning. That was my childhood home and I always appreciated all the countryside around 🌲

Room 2711. Any room ending with 11 at this hotel will be one of these corner rooms 😊

They demanded $125 from each of us… that’s much more than a rip off lol!! And we tipped after each service we were given in other places. The whole point of tipping is because you’ve been given a service 🙄

We wanted to go though. Saw videos of the show etc and it looked great. Which I’m sure it is if you can actually enjoy it. It just turned out to be a bad night and that’s that. Been to vegas twice, it’s definitely a rip off in places lol but also fun. Different times, different situations.

Should I go any night? I have a chance to do cinco de mayo do they have that jazzed up for tourists? (Ik it's not really big in Mexico) but could see them catering to tourists that night lol

Ahh you’re very welcome, thank you 😊 Definitely add this place to your bucket list, and enjoy Romania 🇷🇴

Yeah it was a stunning boutique hotel, I’d happily stay there again. And the old town area of Antalya is beautiful, I’d highly recommend it 😊

Thank you so much, I really appreciate that 😊 I have plenty more videos to upload still from my other holidays ( Canada, Mallorca, Mexico and Cornwall lol! ) So keep an eye out as there are loads more on the way 😊

Definitely looking forwards to watching them .

Ooh I’d love to go to Romania too! That’s one of the places on my list 😁 And definitely go take a visit to southern Turkey, in and around Antalya there are so many Roman ruins you can visit. We didn’t get any spare time on this visit but when we go back, we plan on going to see some amphitheatre ruins 🤩

Yeah being able to see all this Roman stuff was so interesting. I love history and this hotel was packed full of artefacts 😮

Yeah it’s a beautiful place, you can see it better in the drone shots in my newest video 😮

Hiya, I use the DJI Mini 2. It’s very user friendly, very easy to use. It’s also under the weight that a lot of places restrict ( some bigger drones are forbidden to be flown in a lot of places ) but if you go for the mini 2 or mini 3, they carry no restrictions as such. There are still certain areas where you can’t fly any drones ( any airspace/airports for example or military areas ) But I found no restrictions whilst I was using it in Antalya 😊

@@HelenHollywoodVlogs I'm currently using the 1st Gen Mavic it's around 470g Was your experience with the airlines and customs smooth as well?

@@kby0414 yeah I carried it in my hand luggage. When going through security at the airport, I got it out and had it in its case ( with the case open ) as it went through the x-Ray machine. I had no issues. I’ve taken it on several different airlines now as it’s been to Mexico with me, Canada and Mallorca as well

The breakfast buffet was amazing 🤩 Dangerous too because I kept going back for more 😆

Thank you for watching, hope you enjoy the rest when you get a chance to watch ☺️ And yeah Antalya is such a lovely place, I highly recommend staying in the old town. The little streets, the old buildings, the harbour and Hadrians Gate are all within a good walking distance of each other. We are going back in September ☀️

Yes it’s a beautiful city, thank you 😊

Thank you so much 🥰

Hiya, we are good, thanks buddy. Hope you’re doing well, hope you’re recovering nicely
