York is a beautiful city,
Thanks for the video…that is a nice boat 🛥… stay safe and take care !!
York is so nice, would like to visit it one day and just walk around taking it in.
Lovely video 😍 my mum lives in York so we know those streets well. Glad you enjoyed it.
Love the sunglasses Miles, can you tell me the make?
It was true pleasure!!! So much interesting info and views❤️
Hi Marina Myles and friends,you know Myles a boat with a steering wheel really should have a rudder indicator so you know where the rudder is ,I personally still would like the tiller what about you ,looks like you are having fun being driven around in a convertible,it’s been a interesting blog something different this time ,till next time take care keep yourself safe,John 🥂🌹👀🙏😂🧸,lots of love to you both
Enjoyed Bails the first time and she still looks fab. Gracie is tooooooo cute x.
Great vlog of York. We stayed there several years ago on our way up to Ripon in our narrowboat. Its a squeeze through the locks in a 60 footer on the Ripon canal but we just made it, your 62 footer has no chance! I remember that ice cream boat, it has its own designated mooring. York is a gem, maybe you should put that in your future cruising plans, it's well worth the effort.
Thanks for this video. It reminds me of my trip to York 6 years ago. I was in many places you covered. Loved The Shambles and walking along the old city walls. Loveliest city I visited. Would love to return one day! Brenda from USA
Hi Brenda, glad you managed to see it in real life too, what a lovely place 💜
Thank you loved the views of York.
Well guys how nice for u to be on the widebeam again such a lovely boat, the shot of the sun set and lovely view through the port hole was excellent. York is a great place to visit thank u for sharing with us 🙂👍. xx💜
Thank you for watching dear Simon, hugs 💜 xx
What a lovely trip.. York looks like a great place to visit… or live💜
It really is! Thanks for watching Lynda 💜 xx
Great video I love York too! I enjoyed the Shambles again too!
Loved this episode, I really enjoy your history and landmark vlogs. I have Yorkshire heritage so found this tour so interesting x 🇦🇺
Aww glad you enjoyed Sharon! Thank you so much 💜 xx
It’s great to see Bail’s again 👍❤️
I grew up on the Lincs/Yorks border, so know York well. I'm now in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, so imagine our surprise when we saw your auto subtitles say Kuala Lumpur instead of York!
What, thats such a strange coincidence!!! Thanks for watching lovely 💜 xx
Nice one guys👍 nice too see you on the cut the other day
Oh hi Glen, thanks for watching 💜 xx
York looks beautiful but maybe a bit touristy as well. Lovely Vlog. Bails looks comfy. Pretty boat!
Thanks for watching Jayne. After living in london for over 10 years i don't notice anymore! It has a lovely atmosphere! 💜 xx
I really loved this vlog, Bails is a beautiful boat, but I still like Alba. The good thing with narrow boats over wide beams is you can get anywhere on the canal network, you can’t in a wide beam. I loved the tour of beautiful York too, all of the talk of chocolate has made me go and make a drinking chocolate. It’s lovely to see you both again, take care, both of you. X
Thanks for watching Shirley 💜 xx
Love the widebeam and enjoyed the tour of York. I think you need a widebeam..
Thanks for watching Bill 💜 xx
Hi, Myles & Marina! I have just binged your entire playlist, I have been considering buying a narrowboat to live on and your journey as convinced me! Much love to you both!
I was recently in York, did you visit the Ghost merchants store? its such a beautiful city!
No we've not been inside! The queue was ridiculous haha Is it worth going in? Thank you for watching all our videos, legend! 💜 xx
@@CruisingAlba we queued to go in and I think the wait was about half an hour. It was a cute experience and my little ghost sits on my desk haha hopefully one day soon on my own narrowboat!
Loved this video. We can remember when you first visited them. Such a gorgeous boat. We are looking to buy a widebeam, we also live in Yorkshire. We do thought just want to continues cruse. Do you think have a tiller is easier. York is a magical place.
Hi Caroline, it's hard to say as we are not used to driving with the wheel. We are used to the tiller and think it's easier but it might be a lack of practice? so not 100% sure 💜 xx
Loved it
Thanks for watching Jackie and for taking the time to leave us your comment 💜 xx
Loved it. How is your family? Hope all are safe.
Hi John, thanks for asking, all is well 💜 xx
Are widebeams ok to manage single handed??
Wonderful vlog guys. I live not far from
York. I’d have loved to have bumped into you there. How was the boat with using a bow thruster? Very different to Alba I guess.
Phil ❤️
Hi Phil, the bow thruster is a must on a widebeam, especially on the river. On a narrowboat though with two crew we can manage just fine. Thanks for watching 💜 xx
Hi chester wall are the largest and intact walls in the North has it complete a full circle York walls have lot of breaks in the walls according to Mr google
I have walked those walls. Been in that huge church as well.
Thanks for watching lovley 💜 xx
York is beautiful. I spent a wonderfully romantic weekend there with my late husband and we walked the City walls. Have you ever visited Norwich?
Yes I have about 17 years ago, would love to go back! 💜 xx
Great vlog. Would u consider a widebeam in the future ? Best wishes
Hi Trevor, in a really really far and distant one perhaps 💜 xx
@@CruisingAlba must admit I’d love the space but my love is for the narrow canals. Decisions 😆
Wiki mentions reads that York Minister is the second largest gothic church in Northern Europe. St Mary’s in Gdańsk May be larger
Thanks I'll check my sources 💜 xx
Numero uno
Thanks for watching Dale 💜 xx
Two things I cannot stand, sugar in tea and ‘obese’ narrowboats!
Video title is about living on a widebeam. 5 minutes in I gave up.
you should never stick your arm out like that because had there been another vehicle behind you the driver would have thought you was going to turn left, because that is an old fashion way of indicating and is still used by drivers today if their indicators suddenly stopped working
Thanks for the tip Anthony 💜 xx
