How Hot is Halkidiki?
Me and my favourite Jacksons spent a week in Halkidiki Greece and it was hot!
We ate amazing Greek food, drank outlandish cocktails and rode the communal doughnut (not a euphemism)

7 Nights in a chilly Orlando- did the weather ruin the holiday?
zhlédnutí 147Před 6 měsíci
My boy, Toby and I jumped a plane from New York City to Orlando, Florida and my God. It was fantastic! We spent hours at half empty theme, parks, had food in several well-known American restaurants, went on a massive Wheal high above international drive and generally spend lots of money, having a great time! Come and join us as we explore Universal Studios, Florida, islands of adventure, SeaWor...
4 Nights in New York City!

My son, Toby and I have been planning this trip since he was nine years old. We always said we were going to New York for his 21st and we darn well did! We visit as many of the main tourist attractions as we can in three days and four nights in the city that doesn’t sleep! We managed to check most of the major ones, including statue of liberty, Timesquare, Rockefeller, Plaza, Summit, One Vander...

P&O Arvia - A whirlwind visit to Southampton
zhlédnutí 602Před rokem
I take a trip to Southampton to visit my son Toby, who is a performer on P&O’s brand-new ship, the Arvia. I stayed in the Southampton Central Travelodge, so I’ll show you the room and how close it is to the cruise port if you are thinking of staying overnight before you sail. I will also show some highlights of the ship whilst I was on it, but this is by no means a full tour as the main purpose...
I have no recollection of filming this at all #drunk

Karen and Richard go cruising with Marella Cruises on the Marella Explorer! Seven days sailing round the Adriatic, with some of the best food, staff, entertainment, and facilities that a medium amount of money can buy!

🤩
You have to have a selfie with the duck.
What an awsome niece I’ve got! A natural born U tuber. That flight sounded horrendous. The tipping puts me off going to USA-it’s ridiculous the amount they expect. The whole holiday looked fabulous though💕 catch up soon I hope xxx
Awsome vlog, your a natural tuber💕xxx
Oh dear another its all about me and my face cruise video😅
Tik-tok 😂 of the female
You have a very infectious bubbly personality and your man is a tad camera shy in comparison. We're going on that ship for our first cruise on the 1st of March. Thanks so much for your fun and informative video 🎉🍻🍹🌞
Great
I think you were very good presenting the vlog.
It would have been nice to see more of the ship tho😅 she'd do well on tik-tok
Was on the ship two weeks after you and we really enjoyed it.Glad you are enjoying the cruise.We thought the shows were great. Cheers.
Was on this cruise recently and have to agree montenegro is absolutely stunning..
A very rewarding touring experience and personally very attracted to cruises since my time as a keyboard player on a cruise ship; it brings so many priceless nice memories, I❤️it 🎶 🎹 😉
Just back off this itinerary and had a great time. Great to see your experiences..
great video Karen we were on that cruise ship from Corfu really enjoyed it but Corfu airport a big problem for flights in and out of airport
This was fun. We’ve just come off Marella Explorer and this brought back so many happy memories. It was our first time with Marella and we’ll be back!!! Ah we never managed to get into Surf and Turf, it looks amazing. You itinerary looks great, those caves are amazing. The show team work hard don’t they. Good port tips. Dubrovnik it an amazing city. We love your energy. Great Vlog. (Don’t talk to us about huge queues in Corfu airport!!) - we had a nightmare home! Cheers 🍻
May I ask what size clothes you wear.? ❤
This was a fabulous vlog. My husband and I just tuned into the vlog this morning. You are absolutely brilliant and Richard is hilarious ...saying nothing 🤣. We have sailed on Royal Caribbean and MSC but liked the look of this ship. Thank you. X
Great video, you packed so much in, very helpful. We've booked our first ever Marella Cruise for March.. Sorry to hear that you didn't enjoy Ravenna. It's the mosaic capital of the world and the 8 buildings are a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Tickets are 12.50€ for the 5 sites and are valid for 7 days. We had a pre-cruise stay there and had a wonderful time. The public bus from the town to the port was 2€.
Yeah and mostly her face😂
Loved that, thanks for bringing back memories. We did that cruise last October and loved it, we actually docked in Kotor though so no tender needed. Check out Paul and Carol love to travel too, they do great cruise vlogs xx
Brilliant watch Thanks . We are going on our first cruise on Marella Voyager in 4 weeks time can't wait.
sorry but i couldn't follow this video as not a lot was shown of the areas you visited on land or onboard ship
That’s okay, Tony-there’s lots of videos out there that show all the scenery and facilities. I was more trying to document my holiday but do try @andyandkirstie and @emmacruises as their channels might be more, what you are looking for 😊
No but we know her face well😅
Top notch video and many thanks for the post, my wife and i went on Explorer last year and didnt enjoy it at all as we had been on the Discovery ships and Explorer2 and had a great time but you have shown us how to get the best out of Explorer so many thanks.
Really enjoyable, natural video…well done. Myself my wife and daughter are cruising on Explorer 2 in July ‘23…starting from Dubrovnik…we are beyond excited…again…well done 👍
Is this like a booze cruise??
Not officially, but as we had paid for the upgraded drinks package, we wanted to make sure we got the most of it! 😂
all cruises are booze cruises if you intend to get value for money!!
Marella Explorer is fab.On her last July to Gk islands,
Slovenia v beautiful.
Did that cruise.Outstanding!
What a great idea to present all these trips in clips. Your montage of meanderings 😃 We are enjoying the variety of content your channel presents and keen to see more, so have hit your SUBSCRIBE button a look forward to more funny kind of grownup stuff 👍
You've really packed a lot into this video Karen. We really enjoy people filming their cruise or holiday experience rather than try to hard to make a perfectly polished bloggers vlog (that's a complement by the way) although actually yours is nicely filmed and edited also. We would totally recommend the first time cruiser to watch your video.
Thank you so much! I’ve got a bit of a failing memory, unfortunately, so I tend to make these vlogs so that I can try and remember things as clearly as possible😂
Quite possibly the first Marella cruise embarkation day video we've watched where the first scene is a visit to the pub 🍺🍷😆 To be fair, that really doesn't make you a funny kind of grownup.....but we did love your reaction to being out in the open sea.
No the first scene was her face and the 2,3, 4 and 5th😅 that is the main point of this obviously, we could have been on any ship or place but we weren't informed, but we will know that lady again 😂
awesome video
Glad you enjoyed it dude thank you for stopping by! ❤
1) Loving the Dawsons Creek title music for the majority of the vlog. 👌 2) Mojitos 🍸 😋 3) Mr Scorch would LOVE that cheesy 80's night. 😂 4) I was expecting you to bust out your best YMCA moves. 😂 5) Loving the cabin and the towel mouse. 6) That spa deal was an absolute bargain for the week! I would've rinsed that hard. 😂 7) The lady behind you when you were telling us about Latitude 53 was killing me off. 😂😂 8) OMG THAT CHEESE WHEEL in the Italian restaurant. 9) That cheesecake looked delicious. 😋 10) I love the Duck on the top deck. 11) What sorcery was that coke can?! 😮 12) Split looks lovely! The square has a very Broken Sword vibe to it. 13) Richard posing for his selfies. 😂 14) Montenegro looks absolutely beautiful. 15) Love the sunglasses at the end. 16) Your tan looks great! 🔥 Brilliant vlog! Glad you had a great time on your first cruise. 😄😄
Loved this video Kat! You’re absolutely smashing it! You should be so proud! ❤❤
A lot of groovy Dutch angles in this video ala Batman '66! You could have got 3 videos out of this one vlog! 😉 Do a video on the new hole in the Wand crazy golf venue on prom by old woolworths. If you wanna do a collabe or need help, give me a shout.
I can’t thank you enough for this video, I’m at a size 12/14/16(on my legs) and am going on a trip with my school after alevels and have been so stressed and worried as it feels all the more scary going with people from my school rather then my family. I carry most of my weight in my thighs and so seeing that most of the restraints are over the head/ on your stomach really put me at ease. Thank you so much !!!
How u doing?-mr! Thank you!amazing recording- )
✌️ PЯӨMӨƧM
thankyou so much for doing this you’ve made me feel so much calmer about going in a few weeks you’re such a star !!
You can do it karen😘xxx
Awww Karen what's TLDR?
Too Long/Didn’t Read - it’s Internet forum speak for just summarise what’s going on 😆
Thank you! I’m going to Alton towers in a few weeks and I’m a bigger girl, I’m hoping I’ll be okay!
thank you for this!! im only 17 and am a size 22-24 as well, carrying most of my weight on my stomach and im going to Alton towers this weekend with some friends. i was so scared that I might not fit on the rides, but this has put my mind at ease a bit. most reviews I have seen are very contradictory, one person will say they managed to get on everything fine and someone else will say they left the park crying because they weren’t allowed on anything. I’m hoping that this is because of different staff members not being as patient as others, and not attempting to push the bars down/ or offering a larger seat and not because they genuinely couldn’t fit. again, thanks for this video. you’ve made me feel a bit more confident going now.
How did you get on with the rides ?
Sorry to hear that Kat! Fingers crossed it happens soon! ❤❤
Wow that was very professional. Thanks for taking us on your journey and If you need anything, let us know. Good luck for 28th. Xxx💕
Brilliant video thank you. The fear is real. Glad you added clothes size at the end. Do you mind me asking height please?x
Sorry for the delay! I’m 5ft tall 😁
Thank you for this 🤍
i think you should do a video on any awesome brothers yo may have :) x
I love that you’re so open about your surgery! WOOOOOOO love this
