A common misconception referring to the London Oratory as the 'Brompton Oratory' - it isn't, never mind it's location 'Brompton Road'. I'm forever hopeful you asked permission before you filmed given it is correct to do so and never be disappointed if that is denied given it is a place of worship. It was an otherworldly experience back in the '60s compared to the crowded 21st century experience - to wonder the aisles with often no one else there to break the silence. Attend any one of the great liturgical events in one's lifetime or all of them many times over should one be so lucky, one seemingly exits this church with a great sense of inner happiness and contentment regardless one's faith, denomination, or otherwise none at all.

I stayed at Bryce Canyon in April 2023 (coming from Australia). I only had one night and I was so excited to hike the area. But there were large snow falls prior to my visit, and I was disappointed to find that I could not do any hiking at Bryce Canyon. It was so spectacular though. However, the path around Mossy cove was clear of snow and I did get to go there and do that hike. It's a lovely area. I'm excited to be coming back later this year, to do those hikes that I missed.

Southampton during the daytime (and probably the nighttime) is a perfectly safe place to be. The only time you would want to be indoors is at 11pm on a Friday night (kicking out time for pubs), and even then, the only danger is from some drunk teenagers barfing on your shoes. If people are looking at you, it is probably that they are wondering why you are bothering to carry a GoPro on a stick in such a nondescript city (i.e., you probably just look a bit odd to them, but they bear you no malice). A quick look on the internet shows that crime in Southampton is half the UK average, and even then the UK is a pretty safe place.

It’s not a war zone 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

I have lived in Southampton all my life, and it's always nice to have Americans in our city because you are lovely people. I thought you may have gone to the Mayflower memorial where the Mayflower sailed to America from, or even the American D-Day wall where a lot of GI's wrote their names in the brickwork prior to embarkation for the invasion of Normandy in 1944. The city centre is reasonably safe, but if you venture into the inner city areas, it does become less safe and there are some dodgy individuals about, especially towards the evening time, but they aren't very tourist orientated areas anyway. Anyway, it was nice of you to video your experiences, and I do hope you have a lovely cruise, and you come back to us.

Gaol is pronounced the same as jail

Since when has Southampton been one of the most beloved cities?

Is it safe? Where do you think you are? The USA?

Go to see Benny Hills grave…

I love Southampton….ive lost count of the times ive been there…always wanted to live there…

One of the UK's nicer cities. Even living there is not rediculously expensive.

I was a student at Southampton Uni. The Uni made possibly the most expensive financial error ever. The Uni invented the fibre optic cable but failed to patent it. You tell me what that patent is worth today. Literally £ Billions.

Think your spidy sense may have been working overtime. Southampton is a safe town to wander around and visit. Maybe there was a football match on?

14:17 If you followed that path up to the right of the window you looked through you would find the Tudor House Museum which holds a Tudor garden. 23:38 That face you noticed, there are about 20+ faces down that street, they're all hidden so you need to keep an eye out. There is also a map of all the commissioned street art in Southampton. Including mosaics, benches and charity statues. There are other things that may interest you that you may not have noticed. For instance the D-Day graffiti, the messages the American troops wrote on the walls before they were shipped out to Normandy.

Liverpool is way better 👍

I have a daughter who is studying in Southampton so have visited quite a few times. I would say it's generally a safe place although it's not really a tourist destination more a working port. As you mentioned it was heavily bombed in the 2nd world war so a lot of the buildings are post war and a little tired so it's not going to win any beauty awards.

Beautifully done. Thank you!

What are your travel tips for visiting Southampton UK?

So brave! We find it hard to travel without a plan!!!! This is awesome!

This is quite an adventure.

What cold weather boondocking tips do you have? Leave a comment below

We did our boondocking in a Ram Promaster 2500. We used electric blankets starting them up 5-minutes before bed and set to go off automatically after about 30-minutes. They ran, using low power, off our 1500-watt lithium battery station-as did our morning coffee machine. And our battery would recharge off of our driving and was never at risk.

I just run the furnace in that situation. At least to take the edge off the morning or evening. If the battery gets low just start the truck and let the pickup charge it, or your propane powered gen will charge it back as well. Great video and nice soundtrack... it was cool to see state street! Happy New Year!

This is my Families Ranch, well it was! I remember getting to visit with my grandparents when it was closed because it was literally our families land and history! So cool to see it on TH-cam!

At 7:13, the area is so beautiful. Is it close to Mesquite Flat San Dunes?

Hidden secret is right! What a neat video tour!! Thanks for this. By chance, do you know what happened to Moorpark's old train depot? Was it relocated or demoed ?

My mother just passed away. FDR signed Executive Order 9066 on her 14th birthday. She never talked about Manzanar with bitterness, just as a place that was part of her childhood. Amazingly, she had a yearbook, with a picture of the guard tower in it. A Project Director by the name of Ralph P. Merritt wrote about his hope for the students, which included …”I hope you may say that Manzanar was an experience worth living, where the important realities of life were made clear and where there was time and opportunity to prepare for participation in the work of winning the peace based on tolerance, understanding and good will. The graduates of Manzanar have a great contribution to make in determining the kind of world that is to come after the war”. My mom married a man who became a doctor, raised 6 kids who all graduated college and married descendants of immigrants of other countries…Europe, Mexico/Native American, Philippines. I never met my uncle from my dad’s side, as he died trying to liberate France as part of the 442nd battalion -a Japanese unit. Hope to make a pilgrimage to Manzanar in the near future. Thank you for putting this video together so I can get an idea of what it was like.

In May (2025) I and my 17 yr old grandson are going on a five week roadtrip and Manzanar is a stop I have planned for this trip. He is a WWII but didn't know anything about Manzanar. It should be an eye opener for him. Thanks for the video.

I think this is my favoritist ep. yet. Just as you two...many a time I've driven by and said, "we need to stop in sometime". I like that you point out it's a day trip, too. Is there a full service restaurant/cafe? Fun vid! CG

I think it was my lad who gave you the tickets a British lad ?

Great vid! Very informative and visuals. The kids definitely looked like they had fun, too. Happy Holidays ~

Also meant to say that Westminster Cathedral has a lift where you can go up the campanile or bell tower and has some great views ! I found a video of Once in Royal David's City at Midnight Mass a few years ago . The Chief Concelebrant is Cardinal Vincent Nichols , the Archbishop of Westminster . th-cam.com/video/8xeZOnW2v6k/w-d-xo.htmlsi=AqW_wVRASZkTSbqW

“Somewhere in the middle of nowhere”. Ha! I love it! This vid packed full of valuable info, especially for hiking in the trails. That road on the last shot out of the park seemed sketch!!!! Another informative vid, for sure !!!!

Very informative. I could see your travels being a must watch for those headed that way ! Fun watch!! CameraGuy for CaliKim

Where did you pickup the bikes at?

The wind is every day starts about 3 o’clock

so its a gated communnity?

thats not a camp ground its a rv park for seniors

Looks really nice.

Let me start out by saying that I loved the video. I visited this park several time in my life, and have even camped here a couple of times, and it was a really great capture of the parks trails and tranquility. Having lived my entire life in California, I want to point out a possible mistaken identity. From what I could see in the video, I believe all the birds in the video were Turkey Vultures. TVs would have a five-ish foot long wingspan and a Condor would have almost double that, at a nine-ish foot long wingspan. The Condor generally having some white-ish color under the shoulder and along the leading edge of each wing, with black feathers, where the TV has mostly black color and the feathers appear dark silver or grey when stretched for gliding. Either way, thank you for this video, it reminded me of times past and I even still recognized some of the places on the trails. Well done.

Nice that it was an easy hook-up! Great job putting on the proper shoes and gear to do the hike. Thank you for taking us along on this hike. -Jim & Michelle

This looks absolutely spectacular my friend! Stunning cinematography 🔥🔥

I just completed the Camino Frances in Santiago de Compostela. Just learned about our own Mission walk in California. I would love to take on a few stages at a time on Our own Mission walk.

I pick my time in Redding carefully. It can be HOT!

Any ducks out there?

It's true that you can't really see the pupfish at Devils hole but, I was thrilled to visit nonetheless. It has to be this way in order to protect these little guys. Before the cages and fences, there used to be vandalism that threatened the fish. I did see the ash meadows amargosa pupfish along the boardwalk. Also worth checking out is Shoshone, where they've worked to restore the habitat for the Shoshone pupfish, and I did see them! I usually visit Ash Meadows in July or August, and usually I'm the only one there, but I love the heat!

God bless you both!

The Los Patos River in Barahona, Dominican Republic is much shorter and more beautiful than that

Thank goodness the insects died down lol!! We don’t need the amenities so we would be ok. Oh but the insects could go lol!
