We are Andrew, a nurse from the UK and Carol-Ann, a teacher from Canada. We found each other in Doha, Qatar 5 years ago and have been married for 2 years. We have had a lot of great adventures over the years, and our next one will be heading back to Canada to buy a home! But never fear, we still plan to have more adventures to come! On this channel you'll encounter travel, food, and photography videos from the perspectives of a boomer and a Gen X'er! We'd love it if you follow along for the ride.
Adventures on the Cabot Trail
We had an unforgettable 3-day trip around Cape Breton! We explored charming Cheticamp, took in the breathtaking views at Cape North, and visited historic Baddeck. We hiked the iconic Skyline Trail, indulged in delicious local cuisine, enjoyed live music, discovered arts and crafts, and immersed ourselves in the rich local history. We experienced stunning landscapes and cultural delights on Nova Scotia's picturesque Cape Breton Island.

48 Hours in Stratford, Ontario
Переглядів 204Рік тому
In July, we booked last minute tickets to see Spamalot in Stratford, Ontario. We decided to make it a little 2 night getaway because we love Stratford so much and to be honest, we absolutely deserved the mini break. It was a stressful summer, and we didn’t do much filming for content creation and we really missed it. As usual, food plays a large role in this video, but we did manage to put the ...

Discovering Paradise: Our Incredible Trip to Oblu Lobigili in the Maldives April 2023.
Переглядів 8 тис.Рік тому
We spent four days at the Oblu Select Lobigili resort (Apparently it means 'Love Island'). We chose the resort mainly because it was just a very short boat transfer from the airport - that saves a lot of time and money - you can spend hours and up to $750 each on plane transfers! It helped that it was really good value for an all inclusive package, and was the number one property on the Male At...
Maybe I’m being too sensitive, but listing Raylene as one of the owners of the Red Shoe seemed a little off since she heartbreakingly passed away in 2012.
Can I ask was it hard getting dressed and ready and putting on makeup in the bathroom with it being open?
how deep is water in front of the villa deck?
How was the beach there? It looks in the video full off coralls so maybe you need shoes to go in? Is it same on any place there?
I will visit Cabot trail in September. Are we allowed to fly drones in Cape Breton national park?
Everything we read said that within park boundaries-no drones, and could be $25,000 fine if caught.
Thank you so much!
I enjoyed your video. I live in Sydney, about a 2 hour drive from the Cabot trail. It is my most favorite place on earth, but its been years since i have made the trip. I use to camp alot and make day trips when possible. So good to see some familiar and favorite places. Thanks for posting
So glad you enjoyed! Hope you get back to some of your fave stops soon!
This was great timing for me. I started researching this week and You tube brought you to me. I like the map inserts🙂 Thank you!
Awesome! Hope you have a great time!
Great Video.. Planning my next Adventure on the Cabot Trail.. Thank you 🚐🚴♂️😎💫
Thanks a bunch! Safe travels, you will love it!!
Hi. Have not watched the video yet! I was to walk the Cabot trail with only a tent and my backpack. Till i read that there are bears all over! Now on to your video...
We definitely did it in a more luxurious way. I hope you find a safe way to complete your adventure!!
@@OvertheHillandFarAway Will start in St-John's first! Backpack and tent in tow. :)
A 6 oz lobster roll is 40-$60 in Boston, so $37 is pretty good. You should have tried a picnic style, it’s phenomenal! 😊 next time go to the Diamond St location where I did my review and you could get the flight of 3 mini rolls to discover other styles🦞
At Bite into Maine
Thanks for the tip❤
Thanks
No problem
I really enjoyed watching that. What a lovely couple you are. I’m exploring places for my husband and I to stay and this resort look just perfect. How long did you stay for? Thank you xx
Jayne, sorry I just saw this comment now. I have to check my notifications. We spent 4 nights there and it was just perfect. Hope you and your husband had a fab holiday!
I loved your lobigili videos! They helped me choose this hotel for my honeymoon. You seem like a fun couple ❤
Thanks! Hope you have a fab honeymoon!
Большое спасибо за ваш ролик! Поедем туда в следующем месяце и уже в предвкушении! Английский знаю, но не так хорошо, чтобы понять каждое ваше слово. Однако практически всё было понятно! Как человек, изучающий ваш язык, могу с точностью сказать, что у вас он очень красивый!
Thank you Natalie! Let us know how your trip went!
Love this! Nicely done, I’m glad you hit all the great little spots that make our small city so amazing.
Us too! We will always return to Stratford. Each time there’s something new to try!
Beautiful and informative - thank you for this video
Our pleasure!
Thank you for this video - very helpful :)
Thank you for sharing your experience, thinking of booking here for my 50th.
@John-es7zn you totally should! This was my 48th birthday trip!
Hi. Going there next month. May I ask,if the pool or outside area is litted up with lights? At night.
Sorry, we didn't see the comment before now. I hope you had a great time! It really is a wonderful resort!
Hi, great video and you looked beyond relaxed after the massages! Regarding the connecting island, you mentioned you can go over or they can come over. With the island you were on being an adult only resort, am I right to assume only adults can come over to the island you were staying on? Thanks!
Children could only come over to Oblu Lobigili to dine at the Only Blu underwater restaurant. They were not allowed to hang out on the island/pool/beaches at Oblu Lobigili. Only at Ailafushi.
@@OvertheHillandFarAway excellent, thank you. Could you hear much from the other side where you found it loud with the music and everything else going on?
@@JimmyandJoanne could not hear anything from sunset villas. I cant speak for the sunrise villas.
@@OvertheHillandFarAway thank you for replying, we've been to youandme cocoon but want to go back to a couples/adults only island/resort but not sure if we want to do youandme again or try somewhere different.
