London is the greatest city on earth. Ancient history integrated with modern day technology and architecture. Excellent food and always something to do
Isn't it strange how we admire and embrace the Roman Empire especially the occupation of Britain. 2000 years later we still preserve and, in many cases, make use of their innovations. Mention the British Empire and everyone wants to string us up with piano wire.
Especially the WOKE and Socialists.
This lovely young lady has one of the happiest and most elastic faces. 🤪🤘 I think we ought to build a statue of her and place it next to the pastry stall in Borough Market before her next visit. 😁
Melissa is such a happy chappy what an awesome human being.
Aw, thank you :)
Could be a good comedienne!
Melissa is absolutely beautiful in every possible way. I may even be in love.
It's so nice to hear from some visitors who are genuinely interested in the City they're in, and have educated themselves on what to expect. Well done, great job you two. Safe trip home and you're welcome back anytime.
just watched all your england vlogs,melissas enthusiasm is infectious im glad you enjoyed your visit your a great couple and hope you come and visit us again someday,all the best from me and the uk
I've really enjoyed watching these videos, always nice to see how visitors from overseas view my great country 👍 🇬🇧🏴🇬🇧🏴👍
Thank you so much! So glad you liked it :)
Love your enthusiasm.mellissa has this infectious smile.
I dont mean to be offtopic but does anybody know of a trick to get back into an Instagram account??
I somehow forgot the account password. I would appreciate any assistance you can give me
@Hassan Alijah instablaster :)
@Jasper Gunnar Thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site through google and I'm trying it out atm.
Takes quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.
You’re right that Baby chinos are intended for kids so they don’t feel left out while their parents have a coffee. They are cheap because the idea is that if the kids are happy then the parents stay and spend money on other stuff.
I'm embarrassed that as an English person, every time I visit London I shop, eat and drink. I am going to use your videos for our next trip. Love your enthusiasm x
Thanks you guy's, you two are so sweet. I wish you all the best in the future. Best wishes from up north in Manchester England
You are both such a Wonderful, Beautiful couple. I wish you & all your loved ones Peace, Love & Happiness. Thankyou.
Do you know, you can use your hand as a basic map of London? Hold out your left hand , palm up. The River Thames flows along the base of your thumb to pinky finger and your digits are the bridges. Your thumb is Westminster Bridge ( Houses of Parliament, Westminster Abbey, Big Ben, Buckingham Palace ). Your index finger is Waterloo Bridge ( Covent Garden, National Gallery , Brits Museum). Middle finger is Blackfriars Bridge ( St Pauls Cathedral ). next finger is London Bridge ( City of London ) and your pinky finger is Tower Bridge ( Tower of London ) - look, if you lift your pinky finger, you make Tower Bridge open and close ! Ok, admit if you did that ! All the best, Peter
I try to watch a range of travel videos, whenever I get the chance, and just stumbled upon yours (thanks YT!) and I have to say, thoroughly enjoyed them! I'm on my third in a row already. You're both just spot on with your content, funny, descriptive, well shot/edited. From this Brit, you get a big thumbs up for your London and beyond series, looking forward to watching more soon!
I like how emotional you are, you make me remember like I've explored for the first times.
All major museums in London are free.
Good to know!
Marcus Wardle: And even a number of the smaller ones....
Just subscribed, Love watching your travel vlogs, especially your endeavours around my home city, good old London town
i'm loving your lovely cheery video's, I am so pleased you enjoyed your stay here.
Thank you! So glad you are liking them :)
Great to hear/see something of your travels...Come back soon!
We hope to!
"It's like we're in a super classy Rainforest Cafe" - love it! :D
haha :)
Love your zest for life it cheers me up
You are the sort of Americans that restore my faith in the real people of the USA.
Thank you for the heads up about the sky garden!
As long as you book ahead you will be good to go! :)
Very entertaining... pleased you enjoyed our lovely capital! 😎 🇬🇧
Went to borough market a few weeks ago,for the first time. Fantastic,I'll be back!! Lol👍👍
It's literally just occured to me, but this market (and I'm sure others like it, though without the vintage pedigree) are probably the real life inspiration behind Harry Potter's Diagon Alley!
culthosmythos there is a shop front there that was used for the leaky caldron in HP3. The view from Harry’s window is also this market!
Great video guys. Looks like you guys enjoyed London :)
Thank you! So glad you enjoyed it! :)
Babychinos are for children hence why they don’t have coffee in them :) it’s so small children can feel like a grown up joining their parents for coffee. It’s just steamed milk with chocolate on top :)
Haha makes sense
Construction of the present Saint Paul's Cathedral, in the City of London, began in 1675, nine years after the Great Fire, and was (more-or-less) complete by 1710, during the reign of Queen Anne. That's why the statue at the front of the cathedral is of Anne. Fourth cathedral on the site, the first being Anglo-Saxon and dating from 604AD. All four have stood on the site of a Roman temple dedicated to Diana, goddess of the hunt. It's said Diana Spencer wished to marry with Prince Charles at Saint Paul's rather than Westminster Abbey because of the association with the Roman goddess but whether or not that is fact is anyones' guess.
Glad you enjoyed "Burrow" market.
Discovered your channel today, watched 4 of your videos in England... Matt Damon, that's who he reminds me of 😂
Just added you today.
Love your travel videos.
I loved London as I went there 99.
If your ever on your travels again please visit my city of Liverpool England you will love it full of Beatle stuff to your fill.
If you desire to go I will personally give you a your of the city centre and all the best places.
I know you didn't have time to see everything, but did you visit Southwark Cathedral, right by Borough Market? It was the parish church of Shakespeare for the whole of his life in London and his brother is buried there. Also, there is a small chapel dedicated to the Harvard family ( of University fame ) who originated from that area. Every day is a school day !
Mellisa has such a lovely personality
I'm a British guy, and a friend and I went to the Sky Garden ( you really REALLY need to book ahead) and when the lifts opened I just made this shocked gasp because there was all of London in front of me. Take note: you can't bring food in with you, and the prices in the food cafe can be high. But the experience was exceptional.
Totally agree with all of this :)
Fantastic view but that wonderful view encapsulates less than 1% of London. It goes on forever and ever....lol
I knew you would love Borough Market!
It was SO good!
Its pronounced 'burra' over here,glad you enjoyed yourselves.
You guys should visit the country I'm from, I'm sure you both will enjoy Norway!!!
We actually went to Norway a few years ago and LOVED it! We would love to go back soon!
Great videos. Learning loads about London and I only live 1hour away! Haha.
Thank you so much! So glad you like them :)
i was thinking the same as you, this is what america thinks all of england is like, not like this where i live lol
Great Video Guys..
I am now 64 and a Londoner who now lives just 1/2 mile from a London postal district . I live in an Outer London Borough and have never even heard of The Sky Garden or that Market and touring London has been my pastime for decades...lol
Isleofskye You're a 64 year old Londoner......and you've never heard of borough market....?
180 Mark....Back Of The Net for you ! I will tell you what happened, as someone who has a Girlfriend living less than one mile from Borough Market and I am from The Elephant,originally.I lived over East Lane (Street) Market, Walworth for 28 years, less than 2 miles away..lol
Firstly I had never heard of The Sky Garden and saw "The Oldest Market" sign in the next bit assuming I hadn't seen that either without really watching that segment ,not knowing that it was The Borough Market,, which I haven't visited for years was the one in question , so I,mistakenly, said that. I DID realise my mistake and wanted to erase this schoolboy error but could not remember on which one of 12 videos this morning that I have commented on, it was on , so I hoped no-one would notice :)
Just found your channel. Awesome.
Welcome 😊
It's a long way to come, to bring you're book back
Haha TRUE!
I'm pushing the boat out here but I think you enjoyed London 😅
Great people xx
I live in the United Kingdom and visit London regularly and never new the museum of London existed.
knew!
I love you Americans , you never seem to slag us off
Hey so the baby chino is like a cappuccino but for kids so that when the parents are having them the kids don't feel left out and where I live in Newcastle I think they are free also we have a massive wall which is still here from when the romans built it its massive
Aaaaahhh the sound of that train going over
The way you say mocha xD sorry it just gets me
Visit Northumberland if you get the chance it will blow your mind.
The building (20 Fenchurch Street) where the Skygarden is located was accidentally melting people's cars a few years ago.
Because all the glass is concave, it reflected & concentrated the sun onto cars parked at the roadside like a giant magnifying glass, distorting the metal panels and melting plastic parts. It had to be fitted with special sun shades about 6 years ago to stop it happening. Oops!
Oh wow! That is crazy! haha glad they worked out a way to fix that!
Rob W aren't modern architects brilliant? Bouncing bridges and laser beam skyscrapers, none of that building things to last business either.
Rob is right.
The new shades are called Brise Soleil
Grahamhg My friend works in a new build where the roof blew off and was hanging over the side of the building. The windows that are supposed to open can't be opened as the hinges are too weak to support them. And the walls bend when you push them.
As for the bridge, I remember the architect saying that the bridge was designed to bounce. Maybe he was just trying to cover his lack of foresight that people may wish to walk over it in groups instead of one at a time.
In 1960s, the Severn Suspension Bridge was an early example of an aerodynamically profiled deck design.
I love London.
get to Bath if you can, it's a great place to visit, you can even have a bath !
Possibly some famous castles and palaces too, such as Windsor Castle and Hampton Court Palace.
please come to ireland
We actually went a few years ago and LOVED it! We weren't vlogging then though :(
If you want to know more about castles in the UK then check out Great British Castles on Netflix
Wetherspoons / pie, chips, veg and gravy / real ale, football (soccer), bearable summers, superb wet weather clothing, a coastline that belongs to everyone - not the millionaires that fence it off, the same for walking in the countryside (no fenced off 5,000 acre farms). There are one or two things I don't like, but I think you have more!
Wetherspoons is fucking awful unless you like drinking shit lager with alcoholic tramps.
Did you go to any countryside areas?
Yes we did! We took a little day trip out to Stratford Upon Avon. :)
I'm in love with ,ya lol
Food food food food food,im surprised you had time to see anything,just kidding,so pleased you enjoyed London and its history
Haha we just love exploring new food! :)
@@TheJoshAndMelissa totally agree,the reason to travel is to see and try new things.
Loved the video but skipped the food bits as I am very unadventurous food-wise :)
Did you guys know that some of the "Leaky Cauldron" scenes from Harry Potter were filmed in Borough Market.... oh and so was Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels!
How are you not all 300 pounds! So much food!
I assume you were flying with Ryanair to Naples?
Oh and don’t forget the egg wasn’t cleaned to death making a white shell (micro abraded biological shield removal exposing the content to bacterial infection, but you do have to refrigerate it before and after sales) before it was boiled, mmmhh yum!!
Look I’m sorry I couldn’t help myself getting that dig in. Brits! What can you do?
she just said we learnt about the romans conquering London loooool the romans built London from small colonies they also did this with Paris
Please please pronounce the Almond croissant as “quasson“ (qua as in quack son)
My word, you do eat a lot of pastry.
You guys pronounce things really funny
Haha just different accents trying to say the same things
Nice video guys - thank you. Next time in UK please try the Full Englsh Breakfast with black pudding, the Full Roast Dinner with Yorkshire Pudding and some of our Spotted Dick with custard. Live healthy lol. Keep the videos coming.
Haha we love food so whenever we are able to come back we will be sure to try some of these!
Romans found the British isles to be so different from their own climate that they decided to leave Ireland and Scotland to the celts as neither had anything that they needed!
A babyccino is for kids lol, it's a 'virgin' cappuccino I suppose!
Haha good to know :)
I'm afraid that Borough Market is a bit of a tourist trap these days. The stalls are mainly corporate and run by a big company, and, well, not what it was...
I’m a Londoner and I know all this, but I still enjoy going there.
Although Maltby is pretty damn good too.
Its not Tooosday. 😄
That babe's a real live wire. Doesn't she ever run down?
Baby chino or what ever it called is free from Starbucks or costa 🤣
fun fact, a cup of quinoa (and most pulses) has more protein than an egg so you don't 'need an egg for your protein'.
Thank you! We love quinoa so that is awesome to know!
MsPinkwolf But in the real world,eggs are easier to get hold of then quinoa...
also protein from pulses, is second class, its missing essential bits
well that's a bunch of garbage. My mother has been vegetarian for 30 years. She is one of the healthiest people I know (at 78). She has no medical issues and I can't remember her having anything more than a cold. Compare that with people who have the average 'western' diet.
Mark, the point is they already had quinoa so an egg wasn't necessary!
I've noticed that your eyes get bigger in the presence of food
Haha food is very important
the first Roman City was Colchester
Peter Jones: Colchester existed well-before the start of the Roman conquest in 43AD....
Yer the Romans had a big Empire but it was no comparison to the British Empire where the sun never sets.. not saying that an empire is a good thing but we did it way better lol
We love learning about the history of all the places we visit!
The sun never set on the British Empire because we couldn't be trusted in the dark 😆
@@nickyjones88 that I can agree with :D
@@annother3350 you're a brave brave women for making that joke in 2018! 😂
@@nickyjones88 Someof my best friends are black -- but yeh, I might not drop that joke on them
It's pronounced Moka guys ( coffee)
wasn't it matcha? green tea
Air quality, still non existent. LOL! :)
London has better air quality than some other big cities and this is still somehow considered a London thing.
And also remember that applies for centre of London only, if people were to explore outer London a bit more and in fact, other parts of England, they'd know England better. I feel for tourists who think London is the only thing in England when its population makes up only 1/8 of the whole country.
Byron make great burgers. Much better than gbk
A lot of the smaller chains like patty and bun or honest burger are even better than Byron.
The great fire of London....not the great London Fire.
Sorry! We are learning :)
👍
Unbelievably only 3 died !
Mark Hepworth
Meh, same difference.
95% museums in London are free
Icing sugar.
The coffee isn't pronounced 'Mocha'. It's pronounced 'Mocka'!!!
Newsflash: people have different accents. No such thing as right or wrong pronunciation.
Baby chinos are for little children
Mocha is pronounced Mocka.
Lol. Babyccinos are for baby’s.
Literally for toddlers.
baby chinos are for children
Baby chino is for children.
Babyccino are for kids
This country is shut
Jeez all you guys do is eat I am surprised your not like 33lbs
Londinium then, Londonistan Now 😁
Oh shut up . London is fucking amazing ....with all our cultures
@Daniel Vasiliou Would of thought someone being Greek would know the importance of maintaining ones culture.
MrMadjones
You stupid moron. You’ve never been to London have you? But you’ve read about it in the Sun and you’re scared!!
I’ve been here 36 years and at the moment I don’t think London has ever been better. It improves every year.
"Why did we even go on the London Eye?" Yeah, it's a pointless tourist trap unfortunately.
Even Emirates Air Line is better than London Eye tbh, despite the fact that it's a bit far out.
You need to know the local landmarks well to have the best experience.
