During my lifetime I have been fortunate to visit many interesting places. This channel is where I plan to to show some of the many photos i have taken during my travels. I think I must have the travel bug in my genes because all the siblings in my father’s family traveled the globe in the early part of the 20th century and, with my father being in the Royal Air Force in Britain, we had lived in 26 different houses by the time I was 16. Apart from a spell in Egypt when I was an infant, I first left Britain, under my own steam, at the age of 22 when I went to what was then called Southern Rhodesia. There I got a job as a learner miner - living in a mud hut on the banks of the Mazoe River near the border with Mozambique. Since then I have visited many countries in various forms of transport and still seem to be at it. I have started this channel with a view to having somewhere to post videos from my journey through life.

What happend to the 67 dogs?
They had to eat them. They had no other food.
Such an ethereal place!
Great job telling an amazing story, Tony! That was back in the days of real men. If anyone is interested, there is some great reading material about Shackleton and his adventures.
As they say: "Boats were wood and men were steel"

Interesting
I remember watching this way back when it first aired. It is still amazing. I am old enough to only be able to cruise the seas vicariously through Mr. Fleming and others. I love Venture and her replacement, Venture II, and can only dream of what it must be like to explore new places by boat. Thank you, Tony.
❤
What a precious memory.
Another great trip on Venture.
Mr. Peabody's coal train done hauled it away

King Shag indeed !
Happy New Year Mr. Fleming , thanks for having us all aboard.
A young Chris!
Amazing!
Nearly 40 years ago my family chartered a repurposed fishing boat out of Juneau complete with a great captain and deck hand for a week. We spent some of that time exploring Tracy Arm, a highlight of the trip. Before the days of cruise ships or excursion boats, we were totally alone and saw no other boats until we got back to Juneau. So wonderful to see the beauty of Tracy Arm again through your lens.
That's great Tony, ranks well with your later adventures on Venture. How lucky for 3 young guys to experience.
What a beautiful and memorable canal trip!
It’s good to see you out adventuring with your daughters! A great trip, great video!
Beautiful area and of course fantastic video as usual. Thank you Tony for sharing your adventures (on land or water) with us. We appreciate you.👌👋
This is one of my favorites.
Great video, thanks, Tony!!
Nice story! Lucky for us!
Hi Tony! Could you put a link to"Crossing Africa and the Sahara by Truck" from your other UA-cam site? I think fans of yours would enjoy that video too!
Thanks for your suggestion but this video is uoloaded onto both the Fleming Yachts and also my new Tony Fleming films channels.
4:40 cold water baths, now they say cold water dips have positive health benefits. You were way ahead of the times as usual!!!
Beautiful autumn day in beautiful country.
Very interesting and enlightening! Thank you for sharing.
I just completed watching Chapters One through Six and want you to know that I thoroughly enjoyed them. Thank you! I also want you to know I have some acquaintenances that took delivery of their new 85' Fleming this past year. Without mentioning personal names on the open setting, their particular Fleming has an enclosed helm station, the first Fleming 85 to have that design from what I understand. Anyway, their daughter and her usband live just across the street in Pascagoula, Mississippi, where I dock my sailboat. Their parents live in Marathon, Florida. where their Fleming yacht is docked. They just ompleted a trip up the US east coast. One other note......although I'm retired, I'm a consultant for Goodwin Steel Castings located in Stock-On-Trent in the UK. I support their two American agents with US military shipbuilding accounts in the states.
What a lovely first part of your life, Tony. I'm looking forward to the next years! Best wishes, B
