Great video of my hometown. You managed to see a lot in one day. Your kid is so cute, especially that bit about being sad about the car - how sweet! Loved the mix of drone shots and your relaxed walk around places.
Love to visit a good transport museum. I find the history of transport fascinating. Like figuring out the wheel must have been so exciting. Fun Lego! 😊 that museum was creeepy lol great video.
You got quite a lot in considering it was a 24 hour stay, although there’s so much more to see! The Bristol Balloon Fiesta is a good one especially with kids, if you ever happen to be near Bristol at the start of August.
Expect to spend about four hours sat in traffic. There's public transport of course, which might be quicker, but you'll spend an hour waiting for a bus to turn up (and then it won't). Wake the tiger is now being sued by meow wolf for directly copying some of their installations. Something not in this video which I highly recommend for kids that age is We The Curious, which is a kid focused science museum which includes a big area on animation and some of the original sets used in Wallace and Gromit (a Bristol institution!) Bristol also has lots of green open areas where you can spend a morning or longer - The Clifton Downs (near the bridge), Leigh Woods (at the other end of the bridge) and Blaise Castle for example. The biggest upside of Bristol is that it's very patchwork and eclectic. The biggest downside is that it's extraordinarily expensive, food/attractions etc are generally London prices if not more expensive, without the London wages attached (or the London transport system for tourists). Overall it's a good fun city with the problems of most cities (plus a few unique issues)
Ah that's so interesting! Just looked up an article about the Meow Wolf drama. We looked into We The Curious but unfortunately didn't have time for everything we wanted to do. We'll have to add it to our list for next time. And yes-- I couldn't believe the prices, etc. in comparison to London. But I do now understand better why so many people choose to live there. Thanks for watching!
I support everything you said. I've lived in south Bristol my whole life and the traffic has always been terrible. But the city is still a place I feel proud of.
Oh piss off. You grew up in the middle of nowhere, traffic was nonexistent because THERE IS NOTHING TO DO where you live. Nobody wants to go there, I bet 90% of the young folks leave. Bristol is Young, vibrant, edgy, arty, independent and green. Yeah it has some issues, but show me a city that doesn't.

What a thoughtful comment! Really appreciate you taking the time to leave it. Glad to have you following along. Bristol is a great city!
omg starting at like 5:15 is my perfect day! A free museum, a boat ride AND Greek food!👌
right? Love a place hat overdelivers on my expectations, and lucky for Bristol, my expectations in the UK are always quite low. 😜
I'm just here for the singing at the end, now my life is complete! Thanks for posting this video.

Thanks so much!
Always fun to watch your journeys
Thanks, David!
What a wonderful video.

That sounds amazing! We’d love to come back. It was clear we’d never tick everything off our list in 24 hours, as best as we tried.

As someone who lives near Bristol, avoid it, it’s a crap hole.

lol where are you from? I bet it’s not as good as Bristol.
How come?
You’re right there, the most woke city outside London, another crap hole.
