We love watching you guys enjoying life. Do me a huge favour, buy Amika a bicycle helmet please. I lost my son, to a bicycle accident head injury. He was only 9. It still hurts now, and it's been 11 years. You're such a great dad. Happy travels.
Ahh I spotted you doing the twirl at the waterfall ❤️. Lovely video, Amika cracks us up, “you should get an Ecoflow” what a funny and clever little diamond 💎 how lucky are we all that you share her growing up with us, feels like a massive privilege x
Haha we always do that. Even down the high street. She's absolutely hilarious isn't she. Copying me always. Thanks a lot, I'm so happy to be able to share this journey with everyone. It's hard and while I make it look easy I hope people can appreciate what I'm doing for her and the sacrifices I am making. Only what most parents do I know but it's not easy. I think working full time is the hardest part for me to be honest. Maybe that needs to change 🤷
@@TravelwithGaryandAmika I love it, never fails to touch my heart, you should pick a ‘twirl’ spot and do it every year in the same place (or somewhere new) - As she gets older and older then you can splice the clips together and when she’s all growed up 🥹 it would be a treasured bit of footage…. She is hilarious, that’s for sure. I think you’d have to be blind not to notice how much effort you make, you have an enviable amount of energy and drive to get on with it! You must do what’s right for you and Amika and I know whatever that is, you’ll be a success, working / part time / full time van & TH-cam…. the world is your oyster xx
Another fun video. Love the way you and Amika play together. So nice for both of you and memories being made all the time. Hope you are feeling better soon but wonder if you need to be resting your legs/feet until they are healed and pain free. Happy and safe travels.
Hope you foot gets better soon. Beautiful Sunset , I've not been to the Lakes in ages. Great to see you both. Amika , well done working out the clock. Sending love to you both ♥♥
Hi guys we just got back from Cumbria and the lake district, we where at that sellafield beach site on our second video 8min 30 sec it is an amazing wild camp. Love your channel it brings back so many memories when our daughter was that age lol stay safe see you on the next adventure 🙏🫶 michael & Kim
Hi Gary and Amika, a lovely video in the lake district, the sunset was beautiful and the chocolate cake looked yummy. A nice walk up to the waterfall. A great video having fun with your daughter thank you for sharing x Julie and Tony x
What a lovely sunset you guys got and amazing scenery - sounds amazing chocolate cake watching the sun set. Nice waterfall too - I don’t think I’ve been to that one. Love Buttermere, the parking seems to have gone up somewhat since we were last there. Always loved the fish hotel at the other end to Gates Garth, think it was taken over and changed its name now, stayed there once about 20 years back. Beautiful scenery. Something special about the Western Lakes / Cumbria coast too. Have a great week, All the best, David & Rachel 👍
The sunset was 💯❤️ Yeah it's a good one between Keswick and Buttermere. Ah I didn't see that place but yeah maybe a name change. Yeah we really like the western lakes. Less people perhaps 😂
It's all very lovely, shame about your aches and pains, hope it gets better.i don't see how, but you should rest it!! 😳The place looks so pretty in the sun😃💙
I did this area in the winter of 2021. Not a sole about. There is a privately produced map, called the Lakes 100. Cost £5.00 but worth every penny. All the places of interest on the map. Buy then enjoy!
@@TravelwithGaryandAmika I got mine from the shop at little museum at Conniston Water. There are Stine Circles near Keswick. And Your daughter will love the museum and park in Keswick. Free parking on street where museum and park are. Free timed tickets are on the railings.
You’re so lucky living so close to the lakes. Can’t believe you had some sunshine as well. Last trip I had to the lakes it rained so hard that my friends and I gave up and came home….. our tents were literally floating. I remember those shootings. Pretty sure the gunman was a taxi driver. Very sad indeed. Great video mate 😊👍😊
Well I moved here so it's not really luck😂 Yeah It's rained all weekend since 🙃 Yeah I think you're right, he was a taxi man. Madness! Cheers and thanks for watching mate 🙏
Gary, your filming just gets better and better, and Amika is not just a star, but also a budding camera assistant, I see. Btw, I meant Font Romeu but thought it was in Andorra. I claim my prize. Oh, and aspirin cures most things. I've got that music you play when driving spinning round in my head. 🤯
Thanks Glen. When I have time it's good to edit. Ah yes understood. Yeah I was going but I'm not done enough base trianing. I Thu k I'd sturggle to complete a 10km run at sea level at the moment!! Going to germany instead to take Amika to see her mum. I'll aim for font next summer or similar
What are the ramps for? Loving the very natural flow of your videos and so wonderful to be able to watch again both for the viewers and also yourselves.🎉❤😊😊
wowzers... that was some sunset at the start of the video for sure. Loved the video this week ( mind you I always do,lol.) and the interaction between Amika and yourself. I hope things are fairing better jobs wise, Gary and I wish you both all the best. bessy regs- Kenny
Great video, I love the lakes, Amika is doing well with her videography. That problem with your foot will have nothing to do with jumping on and off 4 tonners lol. Maybe Gout with all that good living lmao.
There’s a fantastic infinity pool about 15 mins walk from where you parked up there at Gatesgarth, well worth a visit! Going to nip up to the lakes mon/tues and possibly have a wild van camp with my two bambino’s so I’ll have to have a quick scroll back at your previous stops and have a look for some ideas 👍🏻
@@TravelwithGaryandAmika no plans yet, I saw the Coniston stop you did and considered that but I’d also like to be a bit more rural. Biggar bank up at Barrow was also an option.
Love your videos and especially the lake district ones, how you find available spots is fab - I must be braver (out of high season) and find some for myself rather than relying on pub-stops etc. However, the yellow line thing - you can’t park either side of them “Waiting restrictions apply from the centre of the carriageway to the back of the pavement (building line). Even if it’s a seemingly harmless grass verge, you’ll still get ticketed as it’s council property.” To me, the arrow on that sign was telling you that there was a car park in the direction of the arrow and you should use it. It is confusing though.
Thanks a lot ☺️ Yep I'm fully aware of the law (having driven around central London as a delivery driver for my sins😂) which is why I moved my van. However........ the ticket machine actually states "over the bridge on the grass verge" as a parking area, the same area which has double yellows. The lines are new so I assume that the council lined that area in error. Very misleading and will catch a LOT of people out.
Oh gosh Amika got war wounds lol😂hahah chocolate and kids heheh 😊and she talks well posh hasn't got that from you lol 😅Anyway enjoyed the vlog and watch out for them traffic wardens the buggers 💜😉💙🦋
@@TravelwithGaryandAmika no. Quite the opposite. Looked like he tasted a bit of whiskey on a slice. If lemon. Oh. I’ve a new child threat. The three legged chicken man. He ‘gets’ naughty little boys and girls if they’re naughty. Works on the nearly 3 year old and his mum! Oh I am evil xx
Well...in the words of Victor Meldrew..."We don't believe it"!! You guys were just down the hill from us on the concrete slab. Gutted! We walk our Blue on the beach, but not in the last few days. Otherwise, we'd have come to say hi. Tina, Bernie and Blue..aka The-Other-Windsors 🙂🐕🚙
Amazing. I would love one of them myself. Absolutely perfect for me. I was searching online for them while I was parked up! I'd even buy a derelict one and rebuild it
@@TravelwithGaryandAmika my family are taking my niece to centreparks tomorrow with her mum n grandparents. Inspired by your videos. It convinced them she should have fun at her age. They don't like leaving the house. Thanks.
Well the brains of the outfit worked out the sundial. Gary try Arnica gell on your leg Australian Tea tree pure oil is good (top brand is Australian Tea tree theirs is100% pure) for hair and skin as it is a strong natural antiseptic the Aborigines can't be wrong they've been using it for millions of years.
Hello Mr sensitive... The plaque is the memorial, not the castle. The castle structure also features a massive cannon, a symbol of attack and death which is in relation to the military history of the village. Perhaps putting a plaque under a cannon is more insensitive but I'm certain no one in the village cares about that. Having fun with my daughter is what life is all about and educating her about the tragedy that unfolded that day was important to me 👍
I do love Amikas giggle. Your doing very well to say you have a bad foot xx
Thanks. Still a bit sore bit definitely better
Great update and views gang
Thanks a lot 💯❤️🙏

Really uplifting footage Gary well done m8. What a Dad you are, you put us all to shame 😉
Thank you so much. We all do our best I'm sure of that
making great memories Gary keep up the good work

Thanks lovely. I'm trying to do the same for Amika too x
Great video once again..I love you the way you 2 are together.. dad's and thier daughters mate 👍👍👍
Thanks Dave. We have a lot of laughs 😂
Right he’s just being a child now…. Lol… Amika I loved your karaoke by the way at vanlove 23… keep being you.
Haha!
Ah thanks, she's so brave doing that.
Another fun video. Love the way you
and Amika play together. So nice for both of you and memories being made all the time.
Hope you are feeling better soon but wonder if you need to be resting your legs/feet until they are healed and pain free. Happy and safe travels.
Thanks Sally. We have a right laugh together. Some injuries require rest some prefer mobility. Oddly I'm about 90% pain free today 🙃
Hope you foot gets better soon. Beautiful Sunset , I've not been to the Lakes in ages. Great to see you both. Amika , well done working out the clock. Sending love to you both ♥♥
Thanks so much, it's a lot better today!!
She did so good working that out, best me to it!
Take care Gini x

Ah thanks again both. Glad to jog some fond memories. It's great over that way isn't it
We always find your videos really relaxing, which has helped as we've had a really hectic few weeks and not good on the brain x
Ah thanks a lot. I try to add music for how I'm feeling at that time. I find it relaxing watching it back also. Wishing you both well xx
I’m loving Amikas tee shirt 😍

Thanks a lot June. It was a lovely weekend
LFA17. Low Fly Area 17. the jets often fly low over my work place at Threlkeld, as they turn through the valley to avoid Blencathra.
Awesome. I'd love to get Amika up a fell and watch them. Maybe over summer. Where is the best place do you think?

What are the ramps for?

Hi. They are for when the van isn't level and I can myself flat. Better for sleeping etc. 😁
@@TravelwithGaryandAmika Why didn't I think of that??😁😊🤣💥

Great video, I love the lakes, Amika is doing well with her videography.

She's doing great isn't she.
No it's a trapped nerve. I think I'll be running again tomorrow 🙏
