    The thing that is always a reminder while traveling Europe, is how young our country is. Nothing like seeing a 12th century castle or church to put some perspective on our own history.

    Traveled France, Switzerland, and Germany in 2001.. I went with my daughter's French class.. It was her graduation gift.. We had an amazing time..

    Looks like an amazing trip and I love Leeds Castle. NB the last King of England was William of Orange in 1688. Since then all monarchs have been monarchs of the United Kingdom.

    So glad you enjoyed Rotterdam. It was very nostalgic seeing our apartment bldg just across the Swan bridge. I'd love to see Oslo and Copenhagen. Glad you had such a great time.

    TONY TONY TONY!
    You surprised me with your reference to Geoffrey Chaucer while not doing a "mash up" with A Knights Tale.
    I hope your trip to Tivoli Gardens included a stop at the food hall. There is a pizza place that makes the most incredible pizza, that has no more than the equivalent of a Vienna sausage amount of meat, goat sausage, that blew me away. Imagine my shocking surprise, as a meat lovers pizza kind of guy, how much I COULD NOT get enough of it.

    Wonderfully put together, Tony. You covered in 17 minutes so much, and very well documented. Thank you. We love Europe and what it has to offer. So much history, diversification, iconic and world famous places you sometimes only read about, and to actually be there to see for yourself is so special. Thanks for the video. We hope to have one last visit to Europe next May to take in a cruise around the British Isles and to take a river cruise down the Rhine from Basel to Amsterdam, subject to our health staying good, of course. Great video, though, Tony. I understand through Don's vlog today, that you want to go back to Europe and have some time together on a cruise there. Do it....those memories can't be replaced.

    Loved your video, we just finished our UK explorer on the Viking Venus, and were able to see Canterbury, Oslo, Loch Ness and Edinburgh. This cruise was a once in a lifetime event.

    Fabulous journey, Tony! Thanks for sharing.
    I’m excited to see Tivoli Gardens and the Little Mermaid statue when I depart from Copenhagen on a Norwegian fjord cruise next June (2024). It will be my first time in Europe!

    Took a trip down memory lane… was in Copenhagen back in 2017… and had to stay 4 extra nights due to a hurricane in Florida that shit down the airport and created some havoc… so got to enjoy many sights there…

    • @pamelabrauer9450
      @pamelabrauer9450 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      And visit the Anne Frank Museum. Probably one of the most moving sites I have ever visited other than the Dachau concentration camp in Germany. I believe that the Anne Frank house is something everyone should see. And never forget.

    Hi Tony, Loved this video and seeing your adventures in " Merry old England" and Scotland !! You are now our fave vlogger by far !! Your enthusiasm and massive cruise knowledge is outstanding and shines through in your vlogs. Best of all is your comedic spin and hilarious cruise stories. Your on-screen presentation has us in fits of laughter half the time. Keep the fun times coming.
    Two questions.... Have you ever done a Norwegian cruise and, if not, do you plan to ? And do you ever bother with the onboard professional photos ?
    Thanks Tony,
    Sue and John, Worcestershire UK

    Hey, Tony! You’re our favorite cruise reviewer. We think we have you beat on intense upcoming cruise (see below). Before I ask my question, let me answer one of YOURS…We totally like you better as a spaz. I relate because my mum and I ca-ruuuse a lot and you’re the same age as me, so I appreciate your opinions even more. We’ve got 2 back to back cruises coming up on the same ship: The Island Princess, leaving in about a month. We’ve watched many of your reviews, and while you’ve touched a few places, (Denmark, Sweden, Scotland) we haven’t seen much about where we are going; primarily the Baltic countries. I should also say, RC is definitely my favorite cruise line. For this trip, however, we’re on Princess, which has always seemed to me like others feel about HA… old people. I also hate sea days, especially when there’s just old-people stuff to do. Probably why I enjoy RC, I’m your age. Anyway, these are the ports of our itinerary we haven’t been before. if you’ve done these cruises or been to these places, please share your thoughts!
    14-Day Scandinavia & Baltic Collection : Bornholm, Denmark; Visby, Sweden; Tallinn, Estonia; Riga, Latvia; Klaipeda, Lithuania (We’re actually going from Riga to Vilnius over night, then catching up in Klaipeda); Gdańsk, Poland.
    14-Day Icelandic & Norwegian Fjords - Haugesund, Norway; Alesund, Norway; Seydisfjordur, Iceland; Akureyri, Iceland; Grundarfjordur, Iceland; Reykjavik, Iceland.

    Hi Tony. Doug (not THE Doug) from Townsville, Queensland, Australia. Have been to Plymouth twice and stood at the Mayflower steps. Not sure if you noticed nearby a wall plaque commemorating the departure from Plymouth on 13 March 1787 of 2 ships transporting convicts to New South Wales, arriving 26 January 1788 at what is now Sydney. So the beginning of 2 modern countries has connections with Plymouth. For my family, it is also significant, as my Great Great Great Great Grandfather and family left Plymouth on 30 April 1852 bound for Australia. Isn't history great.

    Great vlog, Tony. We also went to Cotelle when we were on the transatlantic cruise with Don last October. Wonderful sights and sounds and history. Also, I know you are not a farmer so you are forgiven, but my nephew owns a couple Scottish Highland cattle. So yes, we do have them here in the states. You just have to look closely. Thanks for the great vlog(s)!

    Hi Tony, I was fortunate enough to have gotten to travel to London when I was in college in the late 1980’s. It was a trip through the University of TN at Martin which I attended. There were other universities on this trip as well. It was a 10 day trip that included some excursions outside of the city to Stratford upon Avon to Shakespeare’s birthplace, to Stonehenge, and Bath. I saw amazing history in these places and would love to return. I enjoyed watching the highlights of your trip very much. It reminded me of my trip oh so many years ago and of the amazing history that many of us descended from. I would like to add that I live in a small rural town in Tennessee probably only 30 miles from the safari park you visited just last week. You are definitely my favorite cruise vlogger that I started following once my husband and I decided to begin cruising again after the shut down. We have been cruising once a year since 2011 except for 2021 and 2022. Keep up the good work as we enjoy ALL of your videos.

    Glad you liked Urquhart Castle and Loch Ness. I lived in the village of Drumnadrochit- the home of the Monster, for 15 years. During that time I drove along the shores of the Loch hundreds of times and even had a boat on the waters there. I never saw a monster but have seen sealions which could easily be mistaken and with a touch of imagination, as something mysterious from years long passed. The Loch is really incapable of sustaining any large aquatic life, but myths are of course good for the local economy 😊
