    👋🏼 Hello. to you all that have scrolled down this far on our description. We are James and Ellie and we are from the UK. Myself 🙋🏼‍♂️ and Ellie 🙋🏼‍♀️ both met each other in college where we both studied travel and tourism 🌍 back in 2009. We got married👰🏼‍♀️🤵🏼‍♂️ in Mauritius in 2018 and we have both been inseparable ever since! We are both like a jigsaw and we can quite happily say either of us are not complete without the other!
    We decided to start our TH-cam channel just before the pandemic started to bite around the world as we thought wed love to capture our memories as well as make informative honest videos about different resorts and hotels to help other travellers decide what might be right for them when booking their next trip abroad. We haven't looked back since and we have so much fun bringing our videos to life for you.

    The beauty of Pont Naturel - and Mauritius in general - is stunning! Glad to see things turned out all right after that scary experience in the water. Thanks for sharing Mauritius with us!

      Mauritius is stunning island! Pont Natural was great and worth it getting their! Even though I nearly died in the heat 😰. Yeah water and swimming didn’t help the snorkel I had on the breathing tube got stuck so no air was coming in so I panicked I’m never wearing them ones again. 😓. Thanks so much for watching 💪🏼

    Gosh what an eventful day! 😮
    I wouldn’t have managed the bike ride either Ellie, with my asthma. You definitely made the right choice.
    And gosh James that looks absolutely terrifying, reminds me again why we don’t snorkel out of our depth even with life jackets on!🙈 Glad you are ok. So lucky you had a life vest on and Ellie was there to help, you go girl! 💪🏼
    Another great vlog, have really enjoyed this series. Well done guys. ☺️

      I know right, all makes for memories I guess 😆
      I’m so glad I listened to my gut and turned round, always listen to your gut! James was absolutely knackered after, never seen him that knackered and he’s a trooper 💪🏼
      Honestly you couldn’t write it. I think he got cramp because he had done that long bike ride and hadn’t drunk enough fluids. It was really scary seeing him drifting, the current was really strong. Still not sure how I dragged a fully grown man back to the boat 🤣 survival mode kicked in!
      Thanks Beckie for your awesome comments and support as always 🥰

    Hi guys, love the chilling in the sea….not so much the drowning in the sea James !!!!! Well done Ellie ❤ I would have been right there with you on getting off that blooming bike Ellie….omg but well done James for getting there and back 😊

      The best isn’t it 🤩 no he’s keeping his feet firmly on the sea floor for a while, it was so scary. Thank you, still not sure how I dragged a fully grown man back to the boat 😆
      I’ve decided holidays are not for bikes 🤣 so glad I listened to my gut and turned back. Maybe James is trying to kill me off making me do all of these extreme sports 🤣 he’s a trooper I’ll give him that but I did spent the few hours worrying if he’d make it back!

    Oh no James! I could feel the panic right along with you when you got the cramp. That must have been so scary. There’s no way in hell I would have made that bike ride either Ellie. I’m glad you both had a lovely holiday though. Also that seaweed face 🤣🤣
    Hope you’re both doing well 💕

    • @JamesandElliesAdventures
      @JamesandElliesAdventures  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It was very scary 😟 ohh I’m glad I’m not the only one that wouldn’t have made it! Never letting James try talking me into doing a bike ride on holiday again 🤣
      We had the best time 🥰 haha james and his faces he pulls 🤣 we’re good thank you, I hope you are all doing well 🥰

    This made me feel all weak at the knees seeing James panic in the water 😳
    Never tried a lychee but look interesting to say the least.
    Great vlog again guys, thanks for sharing.

    • @JamesandElliesAdventures
      @JamesandElliesAdventures  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It was very scary!
      You need to try lychees they are sooo good!
      Thank you for watching 🥰

    FEEL UR PAIN with cramp! Same thing happened to me, both legs at the same time, whilst holding a 360 camera, so left with one arm to stay afloat! That bike ride you did earlier in the video was most likely what triggered it.

    • @JamesandElliesAdventures
      @JamesandElliesAdventures  หลายเดือนก่อน

      Horrible isn’t it 😳 Yes it must have definitely been from the bike ride as I didn’t drink much fluid. Lesson definitely learnt 😆

  • @kieranandollie

    15k bike ride, you did well! No wonder you was swearing so much haha! Pont Naturel looks lovely though, them views! 😍 Seaweed face hahahaha 😂😂😂 How scary about not being able to move and getting cramp in the sea, would have panicked loads too, Ellie did amazing to help though! Glad you was all fine in the end and enjoyed the rest of blue bay! 🏝️

    • @JamesandElliesAdventures
      @JamesandElliesAdventures  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      He done so well I would have definitely died although it did complete screw him for the rest of the day!
      Thank you, survival mode just kicked in but it was very scary to be honest. Going to keep our feet on the sea floor from now on I think 😳 blue bay is lovely and the snorkelling is really good but the current was wild that’s for sure.

    Scary getting cramp - we are flying out tomorrow and can’t wait.

    • @JamesandElliesAdventures
      @JamesandElliesAdventures  ปีที่แล้ว

      Very scary. It was because he done that bike ride and not drunk enough.
      Eeeekkkkkk travel day today have the best time 🥰

    Lesson learnt don’t do a 15/17km bike ride, sweat your A*s of and then go swimming to get a cramp like me 😅 🤦🏼‍♂️
