We sure did have fun, thank you so much ☺️

Oh did you! I bet they were lovely chocolates though, we did think about a pic n mix but was to scared of the price 😂, all the signs behind the counter had price signs of €55 per so many grams so panicked and got something small 😂 Thanks again for the lovely comments and so glad you enjoyed it too 🥰

It was really beautiful, so glad you enjoyed it, thank you so much for watching 🩷🥰

Oh really! How lucky to live in such a great location, we really loved the park it had a great vibe 🙂

Yes our kids love them! They enjoyed being above us and they slept better than they do at home 😊

Oh thank you, it was a last minute vinted bargain! I did feel fantastic in it too, thank you 🥰

❤️🥰

Haha thank you, that made me laugh 😆 and yes I'm surprised I can deal with the no window but we were right next to a lift that took straight up to the pool deck so I knew I always had that espcase to fresh air 😊

@jodicross439 😀 I remember once down here on holiday I opened the plastic skylight in the caravan and it dropped down on my head!😀 Had to buy superglue at the local shop to fix it!😀 I'd feel a bit claustrophobic with no window in a cabin...I'd have to have a picture of one on the TV instead overnight!😀📺

Oh dear ouch! At least you managed to fix it. And yes you could always take your own photo of a window lol I forgot to say in the video actually on one of the TV channels there is a webcam of the outside of the ship so you can take a look at where you are the weather etc 😊

Oh wow yes we remember you in the lift and Willow showing you her shoes 😃 awww so glad you had a great time too, weren't we so lucky to have that beautiful calm weather 😊 And thank you sooo much for the kind words about our video, that's such an amazing compliment, I really appreciate it 🥰

We were so lucky with the weather, like you we made the most of it by visiting the water park! We totally packed wrong but we didn't expect to be sunbathing mid October! I must say your children are a credit to you, so well behaved, watching them dance all through the vlog made me smile. Enjoy any future cruises, we have booked to go at christmas so I can't wait for that. I shall look forward to your bruges volg. 😘

Awww thank you so much, they really took a liking to dancing whilst onboard, they really did dance everywhere 🤩 And yes we were the same had our coats and jumpers packed! No more cruises booked for us(yet) but we are already saving up😊 But oh how exciting for you and at Christmas as well, I may be a little bit jealous lol have a fantastic time 😃🛳️❤️

@@stevehart1581 haha yes there was so much food, it had a 20 hour buffet 😆 we had such a fantastic time and I think the weather played a big part in that 🌞 but yes the cabin definitely feels compact having the kids beds above us but a good compromise for the price! Thank you so much for watching 😃

​@@jodicross439Yes, the weather makes a big difference especially on a ship!🌊🛳🤢 You done remarkably well controlling your past anxiety issues etc. I'd be in a right state with the change in surroundings! I suspect you'll be going on another cruise next year and ditching us down here in St Ives next year!😂🏖

Thank you yes the anxiety hit hard that one particular evening, I think everything just got to me and I had a moment, but I was so glad I was able to quickly move past it😊 We definitely have some decisions to make but tbh the cruise we went on last year was actually our very first holiday out of the UK and I loved it so much I really wanted to do it again, and this one we got for a great price and helped me get it out of my system lol But for the first time in my life I actually want to go on hoildays . The kids ask to go back to St Ives all the time the beaches were so amazing for them so we have said we would like to go back and then maybe a cruise in a fews years time 😊

@@jodicross439Sound great!🛳🌊😎 Everthing is so expensive down here now for holidaymakers, a nice cruise maybe less expensive! lol!😀💰 You're not missing much atm down here in Hayle!...it's damp & dreary!😬

Ahhh is it, I bet it's still beautiful with the damp weather😊 Your probably right actually, this cruise did cost us less then going down to St Ives but next time we won't have that amazing accomodation and look for something a lot more affordable 😁

Wow all the way from the US 😃 Thank you so much that means alot as I'm only a small channel. I'm very happy you enjoyed the video 😊

Oh fab! Your braver than me, I'm not a fan of slides especially that one lol I hope you had a great time ☺️

Thank you, it is a beautiful place 🥰

Thank you 😊

Thank you very much, we did enjoy having the opportunity to dress up 😊

Aww how lovely for you and can see why you would miss it, thank you we loved it 🥰

@@jodicross439 thank you! These videos make me feel so nostalgic 😁 the hills are brutal though, was like a free workout every time I went to work 😆

Oh goodness yes the hills, you just reminded me, I actually thought after I made this video I forgot to mention the hills, it was hard work trying to walk back to the apartment after a day out lol I couldn't work out why there were older people walking these hills whilst I was struggling to breath 😅

Lol 😆 Well there still time as we are boarding today but hopefully not 😅😃

@@jodicross439 Have a fantastic time! Don't forget to vlog!🛳⚓🎬

They are great aren't they and such a cheaper alternative to purpose made ones 😊

Thank you😊 Wow sounds like you've had a some great times in St Ives and you must have seen some big changes too! I would have just been a few months old back in 1983, it's a shame there isn't any vlogs from back then, it would have been great to see the difference lol And yes we definitely noticed the expense of food, but it's such a beautiful place, it must be wonderful to live there. We hope to be back one day, thanks again and I'm so glad you like the video 😊

@@jodicross439You're making me feel old Jodi! lol!😀 I was 16 then!🕸 Yes, great memories. I used to be a photographic researcher for St Ives Trust Arcive Centre and digitalised many old photos of St Ives from the early 1900's. Sadly the fishing industry has nearly gone, just expensive bars and restaurants now for tourists. My mum said your children were so well behaved on your holiday! Btw..I suffer from bad anxiety too, since a teenager; it's an absolute curse isn't it😫

@@stevehart1581 oops sorry lol but I'm sure all the sea air is keeping you young 😃 that sounds so interesting you must be a real expert on St Ives and surrounding areas, I love hearing about the history of places. Thank you to your mum for the kind words, I am blessed with wonderful children, of course they have their moments I just don't film that part 😆 Anxiety is such an awful thing, sorry to hear to suffer with it, I hope it doesn't hold you back to much. I spent 10 years not going out anywhere or not being able to walk to the shop by myself so I'm making up for lost time now 😊

@@jodicross439Haha! I wish!🧓Pleased you're getting out about now. Keep up the good work!🎬📹

Thank you😊

Thank you very much, that is such a lovely compliment. I'm so pleased you enjoyed this video and you've learnt something from it. Enjoy your next trip to St Ives 🥰

Hi, thank you, it's so nice to hear you enjoyed our video 😊 Oh Christmas in St Ives sounds amazing, I bet it looks lovely in the evening with all the lights, you've made me want to go for Christmas now, maybe one year 😃

Thank you, I am really happy to hear you enjoyed our video 😊

Thank you so much, such a lovely comment 🥰

Hi we stayed at Carrack Widden apartments which you can find on booking .com or cornish escapes. Our apartment was number 35. There were a few different accomodation along the same street which I imagine would have the same view. Hope this helps, thanks 😊

Oh really, must have been a lovely place to grow up 🙂 and thank you, yes we all loved our holiday in St Ives, glad you enjoyed our video 😊

@@jodicross439 I’m 80 now and thought everyone lived by the sea and l took it all for granted. If I win the lottery I will book you all in to Tregenna Castle Hotel for your next holiday

Oh bless you that's such a lovely thing to say. Treganna castle looks fantastic. And yes it's easy to take things for granted when we are young especially when we don't know any different. But you must have great memories 😊

Oh thank you for such a lovely message, your kind words mean alot to me, I have come a long way and now doing things I didnt think was possible at one point in my life and my family definitely help me through, I will read your comment to them. Thank you 😊

Thank you I'm glad you enjoyed the video. And I can understand if you lived there you would prefer it not to be over run with people. Thanks for taking the time to comment it's interesting for me and I'm sure other people that watch this video too. We will definitely think about visiting out of season next time 🙂

Glad you enjoyed the video, and yes completely agree with your comments but the music helps me bring all the short clips together into one section but will keep that in mind, thanks

It was beautiful, very happy memories of St Ives 🥰

Oh really! I bet the changes are really interesting, i last went when I was one so have no memory of it, but I just loved the feel of the place and all the history. Glad you liked the video 🙂

Aww thank you so much, we were actually a couple of weeks before you. Its so beautiful isn't it! Hope you have an amazing time in September and fingers crossed you get some nice warm weather 🙂

Oh really, I guess it's different for you having seen it change through the years and watch it get busier. We went in June and loved it but maybe different if we went in the high season, glad your happy in Penzance now 🙂

@@jodicross439 Really glad you enjoyed it. Try and come back off season next time. There's still lots to do and it's much cheaper. You can even park!

Thank you, yes definitely want to come back and do more exploring but it is expensive so the out of season sounds perfect. Thank you 🙂

Agree 100%, very sad - it’s lovely to look at if you look in the right places. But as with every Cornish town the simple fact is that social deprivation is always behind the curtains - in st Ives case most definitely. Tourists are seeing an “idea” of what Cornwall is, not the true Cornwall we live in. Just a fact of life.

@@richjackson8349 So true. Before moving away late last year, I volunteered at St Ives food bank. Shocking. 70% of users were in work. In half of those, both adults were working. And 20,000 on the social housing list in Cornwall. There is something rotten in the kingdom of Kernow.

Thank you 🙂

Hi, thank you I'm happy you enjoyed the video🙂 We stayed in Carrack Widden apartments looking down on Porthminster beach. I just had a look on booking.com to find the price because I couldn't remember exactly and it's hard to find as many dates are booked but I found a price for March which was around £600 for a week and I believe we paid £200 more then that, but high season I expect to be a lot higher. Hope this helps 🙂

😂 I just watched my video to see what was at 20.40 and haha it made me hungry😆. It has to be a top reason to visit Cornwall doesn't it, to be honesr it was our first pasty of our holiday but not our last lol. Really glad you enjoyed our vlog 🙂

Hi, we stayed at Carrack Widden apartments which looks over Porthminster beach, there were also different apartment blocks along the same road so a few different places to chose from, we found ours on booking.com.

Oh really! Hope you enjoyed it as much we did 🙂

Thank you I'm really glad you enjoyed this video, it was a beautiful place to show off and yes the weather definitely helped 😊 I completely agree with you the food was reasonable especially for St Ives, we just aren't used to spending a lot of money on food, we never eat out because we are always saving money for our next adventure. In our local area they do kids fish and chips that would feed an adult for £2 so I think it was just a shock for us 🤣 but as the week went on and got used to it we ended up paying £30 for a coffee and 3 ice creams in the tate without thinking to much of it lol. Thanks so much for watching and for the kind words 🙂

@@janegolby4678 hope you had fun 😊

Thank you 🥰

Thanks so much for taking time to write such a lovely comment, I haven't been doing blogs for very long, but i do feel proud of this one so i really appreciate your kind words. We all loved st ives and we definitely want to go back one day so thanks for the recommendation. So glad you enjoyed this video 😃

Hi thanks so much, and yes of course 😊

Thank you 😃 that's the best comment I can receive, I'm so glad you enjoyed this video 😊

This means so much to me, as that is how we try to be as parents so I'm really touched by your comment, thank you so much 🥰
