  • Welcome to our latest vlog, keeping in line with our last video, this week we bring you ANOTHER FREE THERMAL SPA in the beautiful hills of Tuscany, Italy!
    In this video you will see us going to Cascate del Mulino in Saturnia. Having seen the place so many times on other vlogs, we were so excited to finally be visiting ourselves!! However, once we turned up we soon realised there is a lot that we had not been made aware of! Here we try to give an honest first and second impression of the place we had been so keen to experience!

    It looks beautiful, not sure how I feel about the worms and dead flies though. I think if we visited we'd go super early like you did. I would want to be at the top 😎. Look forward to your next video 😊

    • @JamesandDawn
      @JamesandDawn  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Absolutely! I think we were crazy to sit at the bottom!! Next video is Rome, last one in Italy 😞 thank you so much for watching our videos and even more for taking the time to comment 😊

    Looks a beautiful place, Helpful to also see the realities of it too though! I’d like to see it but not so sure on having a dip!

    • @JamesandDawn
      @JamesandDawn  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      🤣🤣oh no, hope we haven’t put you off! It’s still a stunning place to go, if you go very early then it will be all worth it!! ☺️

    @courtsandmeeks 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Ewww that's horrid. We never visited there and we're glad we skipped it now. I've heard you have to get there at like 4am for it to be quiet! What a crazy place.

    • @JamesandDawn
      @JamesandDawn  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yeah I think so, we went around 7am and it was still surprisingly busy! But I would say it’s worth a visit. It’s a free spa and is incredibly beautiful (just don’t look too closely). Hopefully we haven’t put you off too much xx

      @JamesandDawn  ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, very strong but it wasn’t that bad after a while!

      @JamesandDawn  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi Glenda, aww I know I missed her in this video too, but she’s back in the next video in Rome! We left her in the van in the camp site as she was fast asleep at 6am when we left! Xx

    Hmmm the reality wasn’t quite as romantic as the opening shots 🥴
    Don’t think I would go in there 😬
    The red worms 🪱 🪱are the larvae of midge flys🦟🦟

    • @JamesandDawn
      @JamesandDawn  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      😂 it was so much nicer when we returned first thing the following morning. We did wonder about that, I’m now a little bit grossed out!! Thank you for clarifying 🙏 (and watching, it really made our day)!
