    The dessert on the train is a Clootie Dumpling. It's a Scottish steamed pudding. It's steamed in a cloth (a cloot). Hence the name clootie dumpling. Traditionally the cloot is covered in flour, so you end up with a skin on the pudding. My grannie made the most amazing Clootie Dumpling.

    We found you during COVID and have loved watching Hunter grow up. She reminds us of our baby (15 now) and how much fun it was. This video made me comment because we're doing Scotland in June 2023 and it's been discouraging because I'm also doing cancer treatments, but expect to be done and on a plane in June. Your little UK adventure reminded me of the fun stuff I have us booked for including the Sleeper and the HP train. We enjoy everything you do! I'm also looking at Switzerland now for a future adventure thanks to your videos! It looked amazing. Cheers! Cari/Texas

    Hunter is adorable, loved my kids at that age... Clootie Dumpling is an old Scottish, I suppose it's a desert, but it's also fried as part of a full Scottish fry up... bacon, tattie scones ,lorne sausage ,eggs and tomatoes... it's complimentary a bit like American pancakes bacon and maple syrup... maybe an acquired taste, I like it.

    I am glad you filmed as much as you did and especially the Harry Potter studios as I was there last year and LOVED being able to visit and hang out. The butter beer there is awesome and I still have the mug!
    One thing looks like you guys didn't film was the cafe in there at the front where you walk in where the dragon is as they have some really amazing treats there!
    Absolutely loved the experience and also was going to go on the tea bus ride this year when there, but we caught a bad cold and didn't go.
    I am very happy that you guys had such an awesome time! Loved seeing Hunter enjoy all of it and blowing out the smoke face was hilarious!!! 😁😄🤣

    19:12- There the REAL Rosetta Stone! With it being in three languages (including Greek) the French linguist Champollion was FINALLY able to unlock the language of Ancient Egypt AND with it learn so much about the history, culture and lives of the Ancient Egyptians which had been a mystery for many centuries! SO COOL!
    And Windsor Castle was great to visit. Were you all there before or after Her Majesty's passing? I imagine you got to see WHY she loved Windsor Castle so much (to say nothing of Scotland itself). So even if you never got to meet her, you were able to somewhat take in what she had appreciated so much!
