The UK weather is the best in the world. Its mild for majority of the year, never too hot for long periods, never rains for long periods, never snows for long periods and never do we get cremated by the sun or get swept under a hoover of a tornado or get tossed aside in a giant hurricane, get gobbled up in a major earthquake or be smuthered in mud or take a giant Tsunami bath. Our weather by other country standards is boring but pleasant and I invite you to bask in all its gloriness.
Great to hear Guys. As a 64 year old born and bred Londoner who has had a lifelong Adult hobby to see all of London in my lifetime I have to tell you that I will fail, miserably as it has over 100,000 " Official " Places Of Interest " lol
Sorry but french fries at a restaurant pub ? you're in england. chips chips chips chips chips chips chips chips chips chips Different to fries, different to crisps, chips chips chips chips chips.
@@CymruEmergencyResponder That's not my point . My point was , that he's criticizing them by not knowing the British term of a food. We Americans just say something different .

TheJoshAndMelissa Us Londoners don’t seem to play around when it comes to stairs and escalators. Some of us are nice and some of us aren’t. You have the find the good ones in London haha x
@@TheJoshAndMelissa The best advice is do some research about the country/city you're visiting. Learn the do's and don't and I'm sure you'll be fine. ))
London pigeons have seen it all over the years, they’re tough and don’t like to be bothered. I like the way only the ones in direct threat of being stepped on moved,the rest just stood firm.
I’m UK born and bred and live in London. But watching this, seeing others coming and experiencing the beauty of our amazing city and country, makes me so so proud and happy.
@@TheJoshAndMelissa I'll bet it did. Being from the north east of England I find 65F pleasant, but then anything over 75F is uncomfortably warm to me. You should take a trip to the NE in winter sometime, go to Newcastle's Bigg Market on a Friday night and see the lads in their T shirts and lasses in their skimpy dresses in sub-zero temperatures. You could also come in summer and see our castles, Durham castle (and the university and magnificent cathedral), Warkworth, Alnwick (where Harry Potter was filmed), Dunstanburgh, Bamburgh, Lindisfarne and many others, Northumberland has more castles than any other county in England (being of the border with Scotland), and Durham can't be far behind.
A few fun facts about the UK 1. They are called chips in the UK not French fries 2. You have to be 18+ to drive a car 3. You probably already know this but, we drive on the opposite side of the road compared to America 4. Don't wear those clothes 5. Birds get their revenge 6. Don't say anything sucks in London 7. Barley anyone says cute in the UK in public. Because if you do you will be a obvious American and... that sometimes isn't good in London
@@jojo-fu4xh There are probably more muslims in the US. And what is the problem with muslims? Many of which were from the former British Raj and emigrated to Britain after decolonisation. The US can barely stop a Mexican entering their land despite Trumps big words.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but that Abbey Road crossing might now be a 'listed monument' - or something like that. So it's been sort-of preserved for posterity -for the time being.
Glad you all enjoyed your trip to little old england . Next trip come see our beautiful countryside and historic towns and citys . And book all your train, plane , buses tickets months in advance for good value . Various sites useful.
Awww 😂 I know this isn't a recent video anymore, but I've been itching to visit London (once travel restrictions ease up) and this video showed up in my recommendations. I've been binge-ing travel vlogs lately, and yours has been my favorite! You seem just so excited to be there and visited so many spots that would make me geek out!
1667? Quite recent then. We have many pubs here in Worcestershire established in the 15thC and one which was in the same family from 1215 to the Millenium. Now owned by the National Trust.
So many of the city’s oldest pubs date to 1667 or thereabouts. In fact, Ye Olde Watling (29 Watling St, EC4) and Old Bell (95 Fleet St, EC4), both claim to be built by Wren himself, for the use of builders working at nearby churches. Another candidate for oldest pub, the Olde Cheshire Cheese (145 Fleet St, EC4), was built in 1667, but there was a pub here called the Horn in 1538 and the cellar dates to a thirteenth-century monastery: the church and pub entwined once more. Away from the city there are further choice venues that ooze antiquity. Hampstead has a number of ancient pubs, including the recently revamped Spaniards Inn (Spaniards Rd, NW3), possibly the most myth-saturated pub in London. It was built in 1585 - although it didn’t become a pub for another 150 years - and Dick Turpin, John Keats, Charles Dickens, Robert Louis Stevenson, William Blake, Joshua Reynolds, John Constable, Mary Shelley, William Hogarth, Lord Byron, AE Houseman and Evelyn Waugh all have some association with the place. A pistol ball fired by notorious highwayman Turpin is framed above the bar. This is another way in which London’s pubs hold on to their history, celebrating the past through enthusiastic displays of local ephemera with a panache that few museums can match.
If we’re talking Worcs. then I’d say head to The Three Kings in Hanley Castle (just don’t ask for lager...), or The King Charles on The Shambles in Worcester itself (and sit upstairs)
You went to some random places. Good on you for not going to the generic places. Funny to see you getting excited over a zebra crossing ( Abby rd) I was thinking “how sad are you” but then I remembered how excited I was when I saw a yellow taxi cab when I visited NYC and I got some strange looks from the locals. Us brits and yanks are just the same. 😂. Hope you enjoyed the trip and you’ll be back soon .
@Catfish Billy please shut the fuck up. The Tories have bring this country down. The lefties are the only people to make this country good again. Without us lefties you would be rotting in a grave.
@@Lynnee2001 oh yeah remember the 70’s where there was a 3 day working week with the economy in the shitter, thought that was a labour government that put us in that
In Britain we call it a zebra crossing not a crosswalk, also very well done for getting off at St. John’s Wood and not just going to abbey road as a few people do
It looks as if you had a real good time in London. It is always heartwarming to to residents from afar to enjoy the pleasure and differneces of London and your enthusiasm sure did display that. Where abouts were you staying and what differences did you find to that of LA, excepting the weather of course.
We LOVED our time in London. There are so many differences but also so many things that are similar. Maybe we should make a video on everything! We stayed in an Airbnb around the Surrey Quays area. Cute little spot but super close to everything we wanted to see!
@@TheJoshAndMelissa Really enjoy your videos it good to see your view of England i appreciate the country more watching others views on it ( im english). Keep up the travel vids all the best .....
The Cheshire Cheese used to be ok if cramped. We used to pop in sometimes when I worked in Gough Square by Dr Johnson's House. I probably wouldn't eat there though
I'm glad you enjoyed your time in London . I hope you can come back and see more of my country soon . The rest of Britain is very different from London .
Great video! We visited London for the first time a little bit ago and watching your video showed there is so much more to see and do. It’s a massive city and we can’t wait to go back again. Congrats on 3K subscribers!!
Haha, it is interesting how people from different places can dress basically the same but there are those small differences that tell you where someone is from.
Hi, I'm standing by the River Thames in London, Ontario... no wait I'm in London, England... Hold on... I'm confused.... where am I? (Both Londons have a River Thames flowing through it.)

For some reason I’m am so fascinated by foreign tourists reactions to London and the uk. But especially americans. ( I think it’s be cause I was born in America but my parents are british and moved back to the uk when I was 4, I’m now 26) so I watch a lot of Americans first time in the uk videos and more travelled americans giving advice to first timers. They always show the same things but I like the different ways people see it. But this was different. You should these small cute parts, the little things. And you were having fun with out being overly brash and American. And some Americans who make these videos seem so, for lack of a better word, ignorant. But you guys are not like that at all. Your still curious and enjoying all the differences but with out the “that’s not how America does it” condescension. You guys did good. I really just wanna be like the UA-camr tour guide for American first timers to the UK. 😂 x
My mum told me that the address was a Lloyd's bank before it was the sherlock Holmes museum and that they got so many letters sent to them saying dear Mr holmes that it got turned into the museum that people can visit now .and it's set out the way it is described in the books
Quite true. Even parts of Spain (north) have higher rainfall than the south east of England. It really is quite a dry region. Britain is not particularly cold either. Just we Brits like to pretend we are like Siberia are something. Most of continental Europe has more extreme weather than us.
More interesting than that is New York is at latitude 41 the same as Madrid and Naples. London is at 51 but is much warmer in the winter due to the Gulf of Mexico 'gulf stream' which heats the European Atlantic coast.
The actual 221b (well 221 because there was never a real 221b) Baker Street is further South on Baker St and it used to be part of the block of numbers covered by the head office of Marks and Spencer department store. They had a dedicated employee to handle the mail for Sherlock Holmes.
when she said: “its cold here, isnt it like 65degrees here.” i was like: IT HAS NEVER BEEN OVER 40 DEGREESX IN THE UK BEFORE!!!!!!!!!! IS IT LIKE 450 DEGREES IN WINTER FOR U! LIKE !!!!!!
We eat predominantly with the fork in our right hand and a knife in our left, but switch it up to cut meat or anything else like that into smaller portions then re switch the fork back into the right hand to eat. Don't know why, it's just what it is two different countries and all.....
Sherlock Holmes was written and created in Portsmouth England in Elm Grove at the time called Bush Gardens where Arthur Conan Doyle worked as a GP. Why they don't have a Sherlock Holmes museum where it was first created eludes me. But there is a plaque on the block of flats that replaced Arthur Conan Doyles practice because it got bombed in WW2 commemorating where Sherlock Holmes was created.
Hey you two, Let me tell you that I never saw a bookstore, that I would describe as "cute", but it's obviously an American thing, that I've noticed, that cute seems to be a one word fits all, so buildings are described as cute, a pleasant park, or a view, are described as cute, along with everything that is liked! The English language is, by far, the most comprehensive of all others, and with so many descriptive words! What I can say is that you two, and particularly Melissa, are most definitely "cute"! You are such fun, and must be great to be around with, and so much so that I have subscribed! Please don't ever change, and keep on loving life, as you so obviously do.....xx
I feel like we kinda are... we always try to give the benefit of the doubt and try to be less cynical and more hopeful... Guess its a baby country effect lol
@@7saany Keep it up, Americans are so enthusiastic and polite. It's a breath of fresh air. Oh and if you come visit, definitely make time to travel outside of London and see the country. You'll thank me, and your wallet.
1:55 My brain was so confused for a second when you said 65 degrees, I was like: 'That's extremely hot'. And then it was like 'oooo Fahrenheit'. Also I just converted 65F to celsius, and mate 18 degrees is like really warm for London. It's actually quite warm in general in my opinion.
So glad you enjoyed :) Yeah the underground was a confusing! But I think because we had been to New York before and used the Subway it was a little easier for us to understand.
It’s so interesting to see where tourists go. I was born and grew up in London and always wondered what people who aren’t from here like to see. I had a friend come over and had no idea what to show them 😅
the building was rebuilt in 1667 because it was probably destroyed in The Great fire of London in 1666
The UK weather is the best in the world. Its mild for majority of the year, never too hot for long periods, never rains for long periods, never snows for long periods and never do we get cremated by the sun or get swept under a hoover of a tornado or get tossed aside in a giant hurricane, get gobbled up in a major earthquake or be smuthered in mud or take a giant Tsunami bath.

I really just wanna be like the UA-camr tour guide for American first timers to the UK. 😂 x
Thanks you guy's for the report on London England. BTW you are so lucky to be able to visit our fantastic country.
Thanks for visiting our beautiful city. Come back soon!
You should know that the origi al crossing in Abbey Rd has been moved as it was causing a lot of problems with the traffic flow.
My mum told me that the address was a Lloyd's bank before it was the sherlock Holmes museum and that they got so many letters sent to them saying dear Mr holmes that it got turned into the museum that people can visit now .and it's set out the way it is described in the books
Didja know that London has less average rainfall than New York or Paris? Neither did I. Doesn’t feel like it sometimes.
Wow. No we did not.
Quite true. Even parts of Spain (north) have higher rainfall than the south east of England. It really is quite a dry region. Britain is not particularly cold either. Just we Brits like to pretend we are like Siberia are something. Most of continental Europe has more extreme weather than us.
More interesting than that is New York is at latitude 41 the same as Madrid and Naples. London is at 51 but is much warmer in the winter due to the Gulf of Mexico 'gulf stream' which heats the European Atlantic coast.
The actual 221b (well 221 because there was never a real 221b) Baker Street is further South on Baker St and it used to be part of the block of numbers covered by the head office of Marks and Spencer department store. They had a dedicated employee to handle the mail for Sherlock Holmes.
when she said: “its cold here, isnt it like 65degrees here.” i was like: IT HAS NEVER BEEN OVER 40 DEGREESX IN THE UK BEFORE!!!!!!!!!! IS IT LIKE 450 DEGREES IN WINTER FOR U! LIKE !!!!!!
Always fascinated watching Americans trying to use knives and forks, and failing. 😆
Barry Gower Genetically incapable of holding one in each hand at the same time.
We eat predominantly with the fork in our right hand and a knife in our left, but switch it up to cut meat or anything else like that into smaller portions then re switch the fork back into the right hand to eat. Don't know why, it's just what it is two different countries and all.....
foolish42088 Other way around for me 🤣 fork in left hand and knife in right hand lol
Sherlock Holmes was written and created in Portsmouth England in Elm Grove at the time called Bush Gardens where Arthur Conan Doyle worked as a GP. Why they don't have a Sherlock Holmes museum where it was first created eludes me. But there is a plaque on the block of flats that replaced Arthur Conan Doyles practice because it got bombed in WW2 commemorating where Sherlock Holmes was created.
Hey you two,
Let me tell you that I never saw a bookstore, that I would describe as "cute", but it's obviously an American thing, that I've noticed, that cute
seems to be a one word fits all, so buildings are described as cute, a pleasant park, or a view, are described as cute, along with everything
that is liked!
The English language is, by far, the most comprehensive of all others, and with so many descriptive words!
What I can say is that you two, and particularly Melissa, are most definitely "cute"!
You are such fun, and must be great to be around with, and so much so that I have subscribed!
Please don't ever change, and keep on loving life, as you so obviously do.....xx
All the pigeons are like, “Oh no not another American!”
It’s a phone boom not booth. 🇬🇧😉
Great bunch of happy go lucky guys.......very enjoyable indeed
So glad you enjoyed. Thank you for the support! :)
The pigeon run was soooo funny...it was like they were all stoned and couldnt give a toss
Haha right?!
London pigeons are the bravest birds in the world, they don't give a damn!
Glad you enjoyed London as I think we have a beautiful country lol
Thank you! We loved it :)
🤫🤫
Luton_town _fan going well mate 7 in row is it ?
Watford Fc yeh
Watford Fc shame we didn’t draw you in the cup, atmosphere would have been mad
Americans always come across like innocent children.
I feel like we kinda are... we always try to give the benefit of the doubt and try to be less cynical and more hopeful... Guess its a baby country effect lol
Their always enthusiastic too which is nice.
@@7saany Keep it up, Americans are so enthusiastic and polite. It's a breath of fresh air.
Oh and if you come visit, definitely make time to travel outside of London and see the country. You'll thank me, and your wallet.
Disney is very nice this time of year. Go there.
Loved your video of London!
1:55 My brain was so confused for a second when you said 65 degrees, I was like: 'That's extremely hot'. And then it was like 'oooo Fahrenheit'.
Also I just converted 65F to celsius, and mate 18 degrees is like really warm for London. It's actually quite warm in general in my opinion.
On your first tube ride you rode the jubilee line
What a fool running through pigeons.
did she just say "it's cold something like 60degrees
2:36 😂😂😂 Americans standing on the left. Much love to you guys but on escalators stand on the right 👍
What’s fall
my manor bermondsey!
So excited for the extra videos!
Yay! So glad!
that was £7?
Why the need to disturb pigeons?
If you go to England again go somewhere different like Cornwall or Lancashire or yorkshire
Don’t stand on the left of the escalator here, the right is for standing and left is for walking
You guys are so funny! Lovely video hahahaha
Hi I would have liked to see you manage in the underground. I found the underground confusing! A happy and fun couple
So glad you enjoyed :) Yeah the underground was a confusing! But I think because we had been to New York before and used the Subway it was a little easier for us to understand.
It’s so interesting to see where tourists go. I was born and grew up in London and always wondered what people who aren’t from here like to see.
I had a friend come over and had no idea what to show them 😅
Happy Thursday!!?? Is that a thing now?
