Back to Amsterdam onboard P&O Ventura ...Part 2
So after the excitement of watching England beat Holland in the Euros semi final , actually berthed in Amsterdam , it was time to head ashore .
We took in the sites , the Red light district , the Anne Frank House and Museum , and of course ended up on another canal cruise .
On returning to the ship we all got ready for formal evening , the plan being to meet in our room to take some photos on the balcony overlooking the cruise port .
We managed to get a table in the MDR, something we had been worried about because of the size of our group .Everyone in our party seemed to enjoy the meal and the children were well catered for .
We sailed away from Amsterdam later that evening , it made a nice change to leave port at night and see the city all lit up .
Our last full day onboard started with breakfast , then a little bit of packing which Pearl actually helped with .unfortunately i had hurt my back and was suffering a little bit . We then all met up at the covered pool area , I took the opportunity to have a bit of time in the hot tub before going to the Sauna to try and ease my back a little .The grandkids spent a bit of time in the pool before deciding it was far too cold for them , the water was actually freezing .
That evening we had another meal in the MDR before we headed to our usual spot the Havana lounge where we saw the group the Privateers , very good they were too .
Next morning we were up early to have breakfast before disembarking the ship in Southampton . So our family mini cruise was at an end , and going by everyone's reactions it seemed like it was a success
Happy Birthday Pearl ❤️

P&O Ventura ..Family cruise to Amsterdam Part1
zhlédnutí 3,6KPřed dnem
So we were back on P&O Ventura , and returning to Amsterdam . But this time we were being joined by 8 other family members . Our idea being that as Pearl was approaching her birthday it would be good to get the family together and help her celebrate the occasion . For the 4 Grandchildren it would be their first taste of a cruise , and so we picked this itinerary just in case they didn't like th...
Cunard Queen Mary ....Vlog 3

So we awoke to brilliant sunshine as we headed into the port of Portland in Dorset . Although sunny it was definitely a bit chilly in the strong wind . We had decided that today we were going to stay on the ship to explore the many parts of the ship that we hadn't seen. So after an enjoyable breakfast that's exactly what we did . We ventured up to the top decks where it was still very windy . W...

So after our first night onboard we arrived in the port of Cherbourg France . We were meant to be visiting the port of Zeebrugge in Belgium, unfortunately due to expected weather conditions it was changed to Cherbourg . That morning we had decided to have breakfast delivered to our room , and very nice it was as well . We enjoyed a very pleasant day looking around Cherbourg and finished it with...

This was going to be our first ever Cunard cruise , we were due to set sail from Southampton onboard Queen Mary 2 . We had a boarding time of 2.45. Rather disappointingly we had received an email from Cunard stating that our two ports of call were having to be changed because of weather and a strike in Le Havre . These were replaced by Cherbourg , and Portland in Dorset . We arrived at Southamp...

So it was our final sea day aboard Azura before we arrived back in Valletta to begin our journey back to the UK . We woke to a beautiful day , and so decided we would use this opportunity to relax around the pool and of course use the hot tubs . It was very relaxing , we chose the Oasis pool which is an adults only pool . After lunch we decided to go back to our room to begin the task of packin...
P&O Azura Cruise Vlog...#5 Corfu

So our last port of call before we head back to Malta was Corfu . Although this is a popular holiday destination this was our first visit . As we approached our berth we could see that we were going to be berthed opposite Marella Explorer 2 . This was a good chance for us to take a look at the ship, as we are on the sister ship Explorer next year We decided to walk into the old town of Corfu , ...
P&O Azura cruise vlog .... #4 Kotor Montenegro
zhlédnutí 3,6KPřed 2 měsíci
It began with a very early start , as I had been told not to miss the arrival into Kotor . It was very much worth the early alarm call as Azura neared the spot where she would drop her anchors . Spectacular scenery and fantastic views greeted us , also the sun was shining and the sea was flat and like a mirror. It was a pleasure to be sitting on our balcony with a cup of tea taking it all in . ...

Fortunately for us the sun was shining and the temperature was perfect . Its a beautiful city with loads of history , so much so that they filmed...

So after a very pleasant sea day where we used the opportunity to get some packing done we arrived in our final destination of Barbados. Can't believe that this is where we boarded the ship two weeks prior. How quickly did the time go . We decided that we would be spending our final full day at Brandon Beach , we had heard about this beach at one of the information talks done onboard Arvia . Af...

We awoke in the beautiful Caribbean island of Saint Lucia , it had obviously been raining because as we stepped out on to the balcony we were greeted with the sight of two Rainbows .

After breakfast we did our customary couple of laps around the promenade deck , where we spotted Virgin Cruises Valiant Lady...

We arrived in Martinique to find what looked very much like a Mediterranean port.Quite a lot more built up than any of the other islands that we had visited . Also due to the fact that there was going to be ferry strike , and that we had no excursions booked we decided we would not be venturing very far . After breakfast we did a few laps of the Promenade deck , where we got a glimpse of a smal...

Love the video. Anyone can tell that you both love cruising and your enjoyment and natural-ness come across. Just booked a transatlantic on QM2 for next year and really can’t wait. Have seen other bloggers really down and criticise Cunard - such bloggers are getting a bit commercial (and annoying) I think. Cruising vids should be about the love of travel and love of cruising and FUN! Yours are! Continued happy future travels! ❤️
Hi Jay Tee , thank you glad you enjoyed it . We loved our first time on a Cunard ship and would love to do another. Transatlantic sounds absolutely fantastic, especially on such a great ship . Yes we agree with you , we dont criticise for the sake of it . If something needs being brought to the attention of people that might help them then yes we would definitely do that . We do try and have as much fun as we can on our travels, and we are very pleased that you think it shows. Thank you so much for the lovely comments and of course for watching our video.❤️❤️👋👋
Most welcome. Enjoy your future travels! ❤️
Love Pearl being discreet, she might as well have sat on his lap! You guys are sooooo funny you should be on the telle Did all the islands you went to accept American dollars? Or did you have to get separate money for each island?
Hi doodles, sorry for the delayed response, we are back on Arvia at the moment and signal is not the best . First of all thank you very much for watching, that was Pearl doing her best stealth mode 😂. All the Islands accept USA dollars, Martinique still use the euro as they are part of France . Hope this helps.❤️❤️👋👋
@pearlandbrianstripsandadve8619 Thank you so much. It makes it so much easier knowing they all take the same bar 1. Have just found you, busy watching your videos and have just subscribed
@@doodles3075Thank you very much , we really appreciate it 🙏❤️🥂
Hi what was the trip you did called?
If I remember our organised trip was cancelled because of lack of interest. As you get off the ship there is a kiosk with all the trips and prices. I think ours was like a half day tour of the island. You didn’t get a lot of time at each stop but it gave you a taste . ❤️🥂👋👋
Nice family catchup, can be hard to please everyone on a family cruise, but 4 days is probably a good starter...Happy Birthday Pearl... 🎂 Did they have any kids clubs to give mum and dad some relax time ? yet to see the next video , maybe tonight...
Firstly, we will watch the vlog later, but needed to say how wonderful it was to meet you both, people who follow this channel, in real life they are just as wonderful, if not more. They also look younger in person, fantastic people, and so glad we spent sometime with you both, even more of a fan. Ps: I hope you liked my performance last night 😂😂😂😂 Enjoy the rest of your holiday, much love Marc & Kelly x Nice family vlog with nice memories, wanna see you in that tee shirt around the ship😂
Hi Marc & Kelly , we actually thought you were part of the performance 😂 . Thank you for the kind words, and it was really great to meet you both as well . Younger in person, now we will take that any day of the week 😂 . Hopefully we will see you both around the ship again, we really enjoyed our chat up in the Crows Nest . That tee shirt will be out I can’t say when but keep a look out . We are very lucky to have such lovely subscribers thank you both very much . Enjoy the rest of what is hopefully going to be a great cruise .❤️❤️🥂
Fantastic family vlog, looks like you all had a wonderful time. The cabin set ups look like a great way to make the most of the space. Looks like quite a few people stayed onboard to watch the football, probably for the best 😂 Was it on in multiple venues? We were on Aurora for the previous match and it was on in 4 different places.
Another great blog with your lovely family! Would like to go back to Amsterdam! Saw you had the not so good celebration night menu! We really struggled on that night to choose food! Both looked lovely on Celebration night shame about the bag and shoes Pearl! Look forward to your next series 😊
I just found you on utube I love you too I’ve never laughed so much thank you for your uploads happy cruises Lisa from New Zealand
Hi Lisa , welcome along so glad you have found us . I normally respond much quicker than this but we are on another cruise, it’s a hard life 😂 . Really pleased that you enjoyed the vlog , it’s amazing that you are all the way down in New Zealand and you are watching our travels. Many thanks .❤️❤️👋
What a lovely family you have. Looks like you were having lots of fun. 😊
Hi Guys , thank you , everyone seemed to enjoy themselves, and yes we did have. fun . It was a first cruise for some of them so didn’t know how they would take to it . Thanks for watching guys. ❤️👋👋
Another great episode, loved looking around Amsterdam, it’s great for a wander and a canal boat ride. You all looked so glamorous on Celebration night, shame Pearl lost yet another pair of shoes and handbag, do you think she is deliberately sabotaging them to get some new stuff? 😂 Shame the pools were so cold for the kids, they need to put the heating on. I hope your back got better quick, nothing worse than being in pain on holiday. Loved listening to the Privateers band, so good. Happy Birthday Pearl, what lovely family memories ❤
Great video, well done Harry on your video and presenting skills, watch out Brian. Lovely seeing you all enjoying the cruise, cruises are perfect for multi generational holidays, something for everyone ❤ Can’t believe you only won a trolley disc after that amazing effort on the quiz 😂
How lovely, so nice to get to know your family, you all seem to get on so well. Now looking forward to your next adventure! Xxx
Thanks Sarah, we had a lovely time , and Pearl said it was one of her best birthdays. We are on Arvia at the moment so I have a signal at the moment. On our way to the Mediterranean. Thanks as always Sara , you’re always there with a positive comment 🙏XX❤️❤️.

Once again a really good vlog - thank you. I hope you can answer this question. In your picture on your channel and at the start of the vlogs is the port you are in La Rochelle. I have a drink riding on this!!! Many thanks Peter

Hi guys ❤ Been looking forward all week to Sunday's vlog 😊. You all looked like you enjoyed yourselves 😅. The children were very well behaved ,even the little children lol 😅. You are all so very polite its lovely to see . All looking dapper for celebration night fabulous shoes Pearl ,what a shame they broke they do look fixable tho. I would get them fixed to nice to throw away 😅. The hot tubs look so relaxing cant wait to try them . Hope your back gets better soon Brian ,i know how that feels mine is always going being tall 😢. Its no fun is it . 😮. Hope Pearl enjoyed her birthday treat and happy sailing today 😊 💖 on Arvia ,so looking forward to seeing you both on your travels in the med 😀. Take care both of you ❤A&J 😊👋👋👋👋xxxx
Hi A&J , thank you , and yes the children were well behaved, it was Pearl that had to be told off .😂.We did our best for Celebration night , of course Pearl had to break something. Our son said Pearls friend had the shoes for twenty years and Pearl had them for twenty minutes 😂. My back is feeling better thank you , it’s a problem I was born with, and as you suffer as well Amanda then you know how debilitating it can be . Pearl did enjoy her birthday treat it was lovely being all together. I am writing this on the balcony at the moment in Palma Majorca . Thanks guys for watching , sorry for the delay in responding. XX❤️❤️👋👋🥂
@pearlandbrianstripsandadve8619 arr lovely 😍... no need to apologise for your on holiday 🥳🥳🥳🥳. You're right. Pearl looks like the naughty one. lol 😜 sorry Pearl couldn't resist !. Glad your back is better, Brian , mine goes every so often due to work and being tall 6 foot 1 . As does my son's at 6 f 5 . Dr. says tall people always have a problem, 😆 lol.

I think we have just about recovered from our 4 nighter to Amsterdam on Virgin last week 😂. Great vlog what a cool way to spend some family time for Pearls birthday.
Hi Guys , your trip looked absolutely brilliant, some of that food 😍. Thank you it was great getting us all together so close to Pearls birthday. Sorry for the delayed response, we are on Arvia and I’m not paying for that internet package 😡, so have to wait until we get to a port . Currently we are in Palma .👋👋
Great vlog guys!! Shoes breaking and her bag poor old PPP! Everyone looked so smart ❤❤
Hi Guys , thank you , it goes without saying that PPPP would break something. We had a great time with the family. We are on Arvia at the moment so will catch up with your Virgin vlogs in a couple of weeks. Can’t wait 😂😂 ❤️❤️
Happy Birthday Pearl. What a beautiful family you have and lovely to see you altogether. Looks like a lovely little trip too to Amsterdam. Can’t wait for the next one 😊
Thanks Louise , it was great being all together, it doesn’t happen enough. We had a nice day in Amsterdam and of course you have to do a canal tour . We are currently on Arvia just leaving La Coruna, where I managed to get a signal. Thanks as always Louise . Xx❤️

Loved watching this family cruise, some fab memories for you. Oh dear Pearl you don’t do well with shoes or bags! Well done on the packing though and hope your back is better Brian. Enjoy Arvia over the next couple of weeks x
Hi Mandy , thank you we had a lovely time with the family it was great being all together for Pearls birthday. Back is feeling a bit easier thanks 🤞. It’s tradition now that Pearl brakes something on a cruise, nothing yet . Just leaving La Coruna and the sun decided to appear , so hopefully it’s like this for the rest of the cruise .❤️❤️Xx👋👋
Great vlog once again. Enjoy your next cruise,look forward to seeing what you both get up to !

Hi Roz , thank you Pearl had a very memorable birthday, with all the family being together. My back is much better, just something that flares up now and then . Mind you it got me out of packing 😂 . We are on Arvia at the moment, that is why the delayed response, thanks so much for watching Roz .XX👋👋❤️
@@pearlandbrianstripsandadve8619 have a lovely time 😊
Been on many cruises a 4 day Amsterdam is no big deal imo, but I don't video it for the whole world to see,,,,,
Bore off mate, you wrote something similar on the last video so find it very strange you feel the need to comment again. CZcams is full of cruising videos and people uploading content, so i think you need to come off the internet if this offends you so much. Have a lovely evening
@@JadeCain-o7g I'm not offended, and I pay for my internet and entitled to my opinion on any CZcams content. I only respond to content that I've experienced personally, your trying to make money from a mini cruise, that hundreds of thousands have experienced I commend many people on many videos. That's what (COMMENTS) are for ,,,,, didn't you know. ??????!!!!
@@stevexnand I also pay for my internet, but I don’t understand why you would leave a negative comment when you already said the same thing on the previous video. It makes it seems like it really bothers you and comes across a little strange. If you care to look through the channel there are plenty of other cruises they have been on which might be a bit more suited to you. Amsterdam may not be a ‘big deal’ to you, but it was a lovely family trip for us, so I’m very sorry it did not float your boat (see what I did there ;-)) Also not sure what making money has got to do with it. Anyway I’m very bored with this conversation now, so I look forward to reading your next negative comment on the next video 👍 take care and goodnight
Hi Steven , sorry for the delay in responding to your comment
We are on P&O Arvia at the moment, so you know what that means…. More videos 😱😱 . It would be great if the whole world saw them , then I would be raking it in . We don’t know if you watch or just see the title and then put your comments. Anyway any comments good or bad all help our channel so thank you . There are no videos for the next few weeks but if you get withdrawal symptoms then please feel free to comment on some of our older ones , I’m sure you will find something to comment on .
Happy Birthday, Pearl! Thank you for taking us along. I loved seeing your family.. Brian, I hope your back is better. It is not fun having your back hurt. Pearl, it would not be a cruise, if you didn't break a pair of shoes.. I truly enjoyed the entertainment. Hope you are having decent weather. We are finally getting some cooler air, but still no rain. Hoping this next Saturday is nice. We are having a tea party for my great-granddaughter for her 6th birthday. Looking forward to your next adventure!
Hi Rene. Apologies for the delay in responding we are on another cruise around the Mediterranean.Pearl did indeed have a memorable birthday, especially with everyone being together.I think it is now tradition for Pearl to brake something, shoes or bag or both . We have just reached Northern Spain, and the sun has just come out .Glad you’re having some cooler weather, I think lots of places are crying out for rain . My back is feeling better thank you , it’s a problem I have had for years . How nice for you to celebrate with your Great Granddaughter, we hope you have a lovely day . Thanks Rene , speak again in a few weeks , take care . Xx❤️❤️
Just come across you on CZcams and I’ve really enjoyed it, down to earth family, happy birthday to your wife.

Hi Kerry , thank you , sorry for the delay in responding ,we are onboard Arvia for a couple of weeks so no signal at sea .

Wishing you both and the wider family the best of the vacation times. Thanks for the tour around Amsterdam. You must remember Diamonds are forever and TO HULL AND BACK ONLY FOOLS TROTTERS. Its like the Venice of Northern Europe without the Gondolas. Mind those read lights LOL.

Hi A&J, we’re both fine thanks , hope you are both looking forward to the weekend. We are getting ready for Arvia in a couple of days time , around the Mediterranean for a couple of weeks. Those old videos were just filmed before we had any intentions of doing CZcams. We just put them on for a bit of content. They are awful but you have to start somewhere. Brugge is absolutely beautiful, would highly recommended a visit . Thanks as always guys you really don’t have to watch anymore 😫😫. Have a wonderful weekend and many thanks for all your support.❤️❤️xx👋👋
@pearlandbrianstripsandadve8619 no I will continue to watch you both make our days. Thank you both 💗
We’re doing this cruise next year and wondered what night is gala (black tie) night?
Hi Teresa , so we boarded on the 9th July and our formal , gala , black tie , 😂 whatever they call it was on the 11th July . So it was on our second day in Amsterdam. We left Amsterdam in the evening which made a nice change . Seeing the city all lit up as we sailed out was great . Thanks for watching 👋👋❤️
Fab. Just what I needed to hear.

Hi Pearl and Brian, only just managed to catch up, we were in Carlisle for the weekend, eating and drinking way too much, just what we need with the cruise coming up! 🐷 😂 I hope Pearl enjoyed her special day, belated happy birthday to her 🥰 We really enjoyed this, great to see you and Pearl with your family, how lovely, I wonder how many will become cruisers in the future! Kids certainly keep you busy don’t they, you can have a well earned break on Sunday! Take care and have a great time xxx
Morning Al , it sounds like you had the perfect training for the upcoming cruise. Too much drink and too much food ,you should be in perfect condition .😂 Hope you had a great time . It was lovely getting the family together so close to Pearls birthday, thank you for the birthday wishes 🙏. They all enjoyed themselves and for some it was their first cruise, they have said that they would love to do another one 👍. Yes the kids certainly keep you on your toes , but to be fair they were all pretty good.Suitcases out of the loft today ready for Sunday, really looking forward to it . Hope you have a great time on Arvia as well . Thanks for watching Al , and we always look forward to reading your message. Make sure you put that training into good use 🍸🥂🍷. XX❤️❤️👋👋
Australian based cruisers much enjoying your VLOGS. Migrated from Hainault to Brisbane some 40 years ago. Enjoy your banter
Hi Wayne , it’s mad that our silly vlogs get viewed on the other side of the world 😱. We really do appreciate it though and are really pleased you enjoy them . An Essex lad , I have played many a round of golf at Hainault . You’re obviously enjoying your life in Australia, things have really changed here. Thanks so much for watching our vlogs Wayne and really great to hear from you .🇦🇺🇬🇧🍺
Hau'ole la Haunau(Hawaiian for Happy Birthday) Pearl!! I would of guessed no more than 50... you look amazing!!
Hi , what a lovely message thank you very much that is very kind of you . It would be very nice to be 50 again , but then we weren’t able to travel like we do now . Still amazed that our vlogs are watched on the other side of the world . Once again thank you so much for such a kind comment and for watching ❤️👋
What a truly lovely vlog with all of your family. Loved watching this ❤
Hi Karen , thank you , really pleased that you enjoyed it . We were unsure how it would go but the children were brilliant and seemed to enjoy themselves. Thanks very much for watching and for your great comment.XX❤️❤️👋
I've been on many cruises, I'll never understand why people do these videos
You’ll be happy to know there is a part 2 😱 thanks for your comment.
I was going to subscribe until your comment about Pearls tiny brain. No thank you.😢
Hi , good job you didn’t subscribe as there is a lot of that sort of banter between us . It’s not said with any malicious intent . Thanks for watching anyway.

Thanks Peter yeah we all had a great time , it was nice all being together. Thanks for watching.👋👋
Well here we go again, pino pearl having to restrain herself so the family don't really see what's she's like lol. Glad to have you're back, nice to see the family, a couple of questions, the Mrs would like to know where pearl got the black dress from at 24 mins and is that a king Charles calendar in your kitchen😂
Well spotted Bob 😂 Pearls mate does a charity raffle in her garden every year , great prizes , wine , whiskey, Brandy, Chocolates , gift vouchers, Pearl comes back with a king Chuck Calendar 😂 . As for the dress Pearl said it’s from next , get the wallet out Bob 😂 . She really was on her best behaviour, we are on Arvia in a few days so I doubt it will last .😫. Thanks for watching Bob 👍
