Today we share our visit to the amazing Historic Dockyard in Portsmouth. It's Britain's National Museum for naval and maritime heritage and an absolute must.

    Happy Belated Birthday Joerg! How wonderful that you have fulfilled a dream of a lifetime by touring the Historic Dockyard in Portsmouth. I think regardless of whether or not maritime museums are a passion, you cannot help but get caught up in the history of the era and marvel at the magnitude of what sailors (and warriors) of the day endured on the high seas in times of calm and certainly in times of war. Incredible! Thank you again both for bringing us along!

It was also wonderful to see the Mary Rose remains as it was the proud ship of King Henry the 8th. Thank you again for a wonderful trip, I really enjoyed it. Till next time, take care you two. 🤗🥰🇨🇦

He was such a likeable man by the men under him and the people of England. It was a sad time when he died. When you enjoy Historical places you don't like to leave at least that's the way I feel.

    I visited there a couple of months ago, from Australia, and spent 3 days exploring the museum, very very worth while.

    I LOVE OLD SAILING SHIPS however they are rigged! Hello from Portsmouth New Hampshire 😊! I cannot explain why but when I saw the Victory during the opening moments of this video a THRILL ran straight through me!!!! Over the years as I have learned more about Nelson my admiration and respect have grown. Here in Portsmouth there is what is referred to as a tall ship parade of sail (larger vessels) every summer (excluding over the last two years due to Covid) and it is a thrill to view them on the Piscataqua river here in New Hampshire and Maine. THANK YOU SO MUCH for this video, it felt like being there myself 😊!! Lovely to see Joerg’s excitement and the revelation for Kirsten that it was a truly marvelous experience!

    Hello you lovely people, I’m so happy you went to the Portsmouth museum, my wonderful father was a sailor in the Royal Navy and we lived in Gosport just a ferry ride away from Portsmouth, my childhood was spent in Portsmouth and I’ve been aboard the Victory many times and the Warrior, I’m so happy you both love it and your video bought a tear to my eyes, I now live in the Midlands, but I will never forget my wonderful childhood, I’m so happy that Joerg loved it so much, what a great birthday present, brilliant video as usual, much love xxxxxxxxxx😘❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

    Beautiful.Thank you for the information on the tickets-so useful.I'm in my fifties and I last visited HMS Victory as a child-I must go again. I'm watching your Vlog from a beautiful holiday cottage in Whitby, on the gorgeous North Yorkshire Coast. As I type, I have a wonderful view of Whitby Abbey and St Mary's Church, the church bells are ringing, the sea is blue, so must get out there and make the most of it, it's a wonderfully historic area. I'll be catching up on some more of your Vlogs later this evening.

    How wonderful for Joerg to fulfill a lifelong dream, to see the great ship, HMS Victory! My husband also realized his dream to see the ship when we visited in 2018. The ticket is a wonderful idea, as there is really so much to see, and it would be nice to stay at least a couple of days in town, and really immerse into the whole scene. It’s a very exciting area to visit. It was on the Solent that my eldest son learned to sail, last year!

    Wow… I have never taken so many pictures. Somehow I missed this video. I watch all of your videos. I happened on this just when I’m redoing my grandsons room. And ship wrecks and oceans and model ships is the theme. I hope in my lifetime I will see this. I’m sharing it to my daughter and my son in law and my husband. Maybe our family will want to go see it. I must start saving up. We had a frozen pipe burst in my grandsons room ceiling . So now we have to get to work. Thanks for sharing. God Bless you both.

    Portsmouth and the Historic Dockyard are a great couple of days out. Something for everyone down there.
    And the preservation work that they are doing on Victory is, as you rightly say, crucial. She was literally collapsing under her own weight.

    Were people shorter in those days? The ceilings are so low. I’m amazed to see the cannons. There is so much history, and the craftsmanship is awesome. Wow!

    • @KirstenJoerg
      @KirstenJoerg  Рік тому

      Not necessarily but making the most of space (especially on a warship) was vital, the ceilings on the gun decks were low and people had to bend over but that way they had more space for more gun decks with more cannons.
