    What a great idea…very useful for those of us maybe considering it…and doing a separate channel for family and trips etc is a great idea…and be brave Holly and go for it…Oh by the way Dan, in technical terms…the front of the ship is called the pointy end…😂

      Ha ha I know people get very particular about using the correct ship terminology 😂😂
      Yes I think Hollie is wanting to set her own channel up across various platforms, told her to go for it….. takes up enough of my time dealing with this channel alone lol.
      Thanks for watching mate 👍🏼

    wow very informative, going by myself for the first time on Tuesday and was in doubt about parking but now i’ll drive in, it’s so much more convenient then lugging a suitcase from meadowell metro station. Thank you for this

      I usually do car content … so it was something different, but thank you 👍🏼
      Oh yes meadowell is rather rough, not the nicest of places to walk though lol.

      Was a fantastic trip away mate, just wish we had more time in Holland 🇳🇱
      Was lovely watching the sunset in the evening and walking up to the sunrise, never has forward facing window before.

    Great vlog! Hoping to work this ferry trip into my Sept/Oct trip to Europe from the US. Will be based in Strasbourg France for 2 months but planning to take many side trips and this ferry journey sounds amazing, and affordable. Beautiful family❤

      Thanks for watching Tracy, yes for what it cost was a fantastic trip away, bit longer in Holland would have been better if I could pick any faults.
      Hope your trip goes well, keep me informed 👍🏼

    At 10:19 you were pointing towards a second gangway and were querying were it went. Until being withdrawn, DFDS ran a second ferry to Kristiansand and Gothenburg (also had a 3-day mini-cruise). In those days, the Amsterdam ferry left from that second gangway and the Gothenburg ferry left from where you boarded, but an hour later.

    • @CarAddictGarageNE
      @CarAddictGarageNE  3 місяці тому +1

      Thanks for letting me know, yes I briefly remember that now you mention it…. As I personally thing the 2 night mini cruise is not long enough only having a few hours in Holland.

      @@CarAddictGarageNE Did what used to be a 3-night min-cruise to Gothenburg - most expensive pizza I've ever bought. But worth it in Gothenburg.

    Nice video! Tomorrow I'll go from ijmuiden to Newcastle for the 2 night cruise🎉. Will be my second time in England and first time up north. I'm really excited, think one day in Newcastle will be to short but maybe going back afterwards with the car on the ferry🤗.

      Apologies if my video is a bit rubbish… I mainly run car based channel.
      Shame you weren’t at Newcastle weekend just gone , it was the great north run.
      Fantastic ferry trip for the money “mini cruise” I took my car over years ago stopped at Egmond aan Zee… I really want to return with my caravan .
      Thanks for watching 👍🏼

    Hi Dan. Holly and Kids. Thanks to you for. Inviting us on your weekend break. I was surprized on many points. Especially the restaurant. The whole ship setup was first class. For the price. It would appear. It's cheaper than a 2 day coach trip in the UK. Cheers see you in the next one. 👍👍

    • @CarAddictGarageNE
      @CarAddictGarageNE  5 місяців тому +2

      Yes it had been 10 years or so since I last used DFDS, I was pleasantly surprised how good everything was, and the staff were fantastic.
      Would definitely do it again, next time would prefer more time in Holland 🇳🇱
      Thanks for watching 👍🏼

    Very informative and interesting video 😊
    Air conditioning is very dehydrating, so take plenty of water 💦
    Cabin looked good and the crew lovely
    The puke 🤮 bags for me were useless, just saying 😫
    Nice video 👍🇦🇺

    • @CarAddictGarageNE
      @CarAddictGarageNE  Місяць тому +1

      Yes it does get vert dry in the cabin , especially with 4 people sharing.
      Pleased you enjoyed as my usual content is vehicle based lol.

    Really good video Dan which takes me back.
    Along with my Bro, family and friends (all male) did same mini cruise 6 years ago for his stag do.....well it turned into just a 'do' as wedding was called off just beforehand, but that's another story!
    It was called the 'ska cruise' as North East ska band 'the Skatoons' played onboard both evenings. As you experienced, it was incredible value and food was amazing....and thankfully it was like a mill pond both ways, much to my relief as I'd been dreading it as I can suffer terrible sea sickness.

    • @CarAddictGarageNE
      @CarAddictGarageNE  5 місяців тому +1

      Yes it was much better than I remember it 10 years previously….. but heck if you get a bad crossing it’s hell, we were lucky the week after my mate went and they were all sea sick, nothing worse.

      Yes that will be right, totally forgot about the Nissan plant at Sunderland.
      There was lot of other brands VAG and alike, there are imports and Exports at North Shileds Port
