Absolutely loved watching your cruise adventures! 🛳 Your commentary had me laughing - especially the bit about your dad always being ready for the next meal 😂 Looks like even some rough seas couldn't dampen your spirits! Hope you had a blast exploring all the different ports. 🗺 Thanks for sharing! 😊
Looks like a great journey Chris! Really interesting to see some places I've actually been in your video 😅🥳 I miss going southwards on vacations! A bit rough seas and some rain as you mention, still looks like a good vacation though 😊😊
We still thoroughly enjoyed it, but as you know, you just can't predict the weather. Amanda sadly gets sea sick when it gets rough, so one day was in cabin, but apart from that, we ate until we nearly burst. I normally only eat one meal a day, an evening meal. Onboard, we were eating three cooked meals a day and having afternoon tea and cakes. It's going to take a bit to get the weight off again. Thank you, as always, Martin, for your continued support.
Chris that was great. Your room was just stunning - never been cruising but would love to one day 👌 Loved that little chipmunk, but didn’t expect you to be having rain in the canaries 😁👍
It was a great cruise and a great cabin. My only advice would be to choose a smaller shop. 5000 was too big, 3000 is more personal. Thank you for watching and commenting. I really appreciate it.
💜💜💜Thanks a lot for sharing these great images with us😊 Always happy and most of all safe travelling to you and loads of fun...cheers 👋👋from your new subscriber🎉🎉
Wow. Haven't been aboard a cruise ship since the first and only time, when I was 6 in 2003. We went for a short local river cruise from Moscow a couple hundred kilometres away along the Volga River for a week. Cheers! Mike
Hi Chris Happy Mother's Day to your lovely wife! Congratulations! Beautiful vacation memory with your wife. I am sorry to hear about the weather, which we cannot control. I have not done Cruise ship travel yet. When I vacationed at Puerto Rico last December, the weather did not favor us neither. One of excursions to a small island, cruise trip was canceled. Fortunately, I found a snorkeling tour to see sea turtles. hahah Florida PPL never use an umbrella, because they have rain for 5 mins, then the sun comes out. We call it FL weather. They can have rain, sun clouds in a day. Here you are. You can film gorgeous sunset.33:50 Thank you for sharing precious and peaceful moment Excuse me for belated comment due to my filming trip. I just got back. Stay tune for more adventures.....
Nice looking cruise 🛳 good views 👌 Amazing looking Church. Very clean looking beach ⛱️ Not been lanzarotte for years . Massive bridge. Thanks for sharing with us Chris 😊 👍
Thank you for watching and commenting and your continued support. I'm catching up on all my channels as I'm back to work. I'll be watching yours soon. Thanks again. I really appreciate the support.
It's truly refreshing to see you sharing this delightful deviation from your usual content, Chris! Your cruise adventure looks like an absolute blast, despite the weather not always being on your side. 🚢⛅ The scenic views, the cozy cabin, and the charming ports of call all contribute to a memorable holiday experience. And it's heartwarming to see your dad enjoying himself at 93! Here's to more fantastic journeys ahead, both on land and at sea. Cheers! 🌊✨
Thank you for such a beautiful comment. It was certainly memorable. With Dad being 93, we need all the memories we can make. Also thank you for your continued support. With your size channel, I'm really appreciative of your time and comments. I hope you are having a great weekend.
Hi Chris, what a wonderful experience! A cruise, wow! Shame about the rain and the chilly weather but everything else looked fabulous. You can't do anything about the weather - except make the best of it. Your cabin was really comfortable and you went to some wonderful destinations. I think it was lovely that you shared your holiday with us. Thank you! ❤
I'm always getting wet out on the Peaks so no difference there. We certainly made the best of it and went out in the rain at Lisbon. Like you say, you can't do anything about the weather. A great holiday was had by all. Thank you for your continued support, ladies. I really appreciate it.
Great video, Chris! The Cathedral looked amazing. I’ve only ever been to Florida beaches, and Carolina beaches here in the states, so it was nice to get a glimpse of these beautiful beaches in your video. I hope you had a great trip! Really enjoyed this video and the film quality was incredible. Have a great week!
It's a great way to get around and let the scenery come to you. But I prefer the smaller ships, this one was too big for us at over 5000 passengers. We have sailed on ones that have 3000 passengers and enjoyed it more. We went with P&O because Dad insisted but prefer Princess Cruises. I think you'd both love it. Thanks as always for your continued support Gavin. I really appreciate it.
I hope you both had a wonderful vacation! The cruise looked amazing, even if the weather was a bit challenging for you at times. Loved the beaches, the ocean crashing onto the rocks, the churches and the narrow streets. I couldn't believe that a trolley was traveling through those narrow streets! The bridge that you crossed under a couple of times reminded me of the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco. Very fun! 😀
We made the best of it Anita. Live onboard was luxurious but the weather was against us but when has rain ever stopped me 😂. Thank you as always for your continued support.
Awesome!! It feels like traveling on a boat, not rushing or busy, just smoothly sailing and healing. I really enjoyed this video. I will look around your channel. Great sharing 👏 👍 Subbed😊❤
Ah wow Chris, something amazing about sitting at sea, looks amazing, i have only watched the first 15mins but i will sit down tonight and watch it in full, Cheers Chris and nice to see you back on the camera.
A welcome deviation from the norm. Always good to mox things up and it broadens your horizons as a creator, working with different landscapes and situations Chris. Good job and looks like you had a great time. I've never done a cruise myself... yet. I'd love to do a Norwegian fjord cruise
£649pp for an inside cabin on P&O for Norwegian Fjord cruises for this year. I've just had an email about it. We cruised the fjords a few years ago, and it was beautiful, as was Alaska and Glacier Bay. I'd definitely give it a go. You won't regret it. Thank you as always, Alex, for your continued support.
I have not been on a cruise for many years. Cruising has come a long way. Your cruise looks like so much fun. Such lovely views, the nice cabin, and the lovely ports were wonderful to see. Thanks for taking us along. Have a great week.
I do like waking up with new scenery. I prefer the smaller ships. This one had 5000 passengers. I prefer the 3000 passenger size ones. But yes, it was beautiful. Thank you for your continued support.
How nice to see your film on holiday cruise. Reminds me of our cruise trip to Northern Lights and Iceland. Not as calm as in your film though with choppy high waves. Put me off cruising again. Don't think we had luxury rooms though, but know the indulgence of those 3 big meals a day. I think it makes a pleasant change to see something different to walking as myself hope to include in future.
I wouldn't let it put you off cruising Shanita. In all the cruises we have done, there have been two days of rolling seas. All the others have been plain sailing. I would like to see the northern lights but I like warmth too. I don't know if I could reconcile the difference. We have been north on a fjord cruise from Southampton and loved that. If the rough sea is an issue, then the Caribbean cruise is a great one. Thank you for your continued support, Shanita.
I was soggy and damp in Lisbon. I said to Amanda, 'we've paid all this money, and I'm wet'. I could have just gone to the Peaks 😂. We still made the best of it. Thank you for your continued support, Nigel.
Ah Chris I hope you're feeling better now. This was fabulous, I enjoyed the deviation, it looked so beautiful on the sea despite the weather. Your room looked great and Tenerife looked fabulous. Loved the beach. So nice to see Amanda too, hi Amanda 😃👋 Looked like a brilliant 2 weeks. Pasg Hapus ! (Happy Easter!) ~ Anna 👍
It was a well needed break Anna. The down side is that I'm 2 weeks behind on watching my favourite channels. Thank you as always for your continued support. Happy Easter.
That cruise ship doesn't look like a mountain whats going on?!?! Haha looks awesome Chris Em was just saying to me on our walk the other day that she wants to try a cruise. The trams in the town looked nice on those tiny streets!
You won't regret it. But I'd go for a smaller ship. 5000 was too many, and the 3000 passenger ships are more personal. Princess Cruises are better than P&O, in our opinion. We went on this one because Dad wanted to. Thank you as always for your continued support. You and Em are great together. Just saying.
We thought we'd give this a watch as we often visit the Canaries for our holidays (we've visited Lanzarote, Fuerteventura, Gran Canaria and Tenerife) and thought that this might be a different way to see the island. Madeira is another place I'd like to visit.
I am watching now! I think it is always a good idea to change things up a bit. I would love to visit the Canaries! I have never been on a cruise either, so I am not sure if I would like that or not. But your room certainly looks nice and the ocean looks amazing! 😊👍36
We had a beautiful room. This is probably our 8th or 9th cruise. It takes Amanda a day or so to acclimatise, but it is very enjoyable. We've cruised Hawaii from LA, Caribbean from Fort Lauderdale, and transitted to Barcelona from Fort Lauderdale, too. The food is amazing, and you can opt to be served in the dining rooms or self-service. It's a great experience.
Hiya Chris! Sorry for the late watch my dear friend! Nice to see the highlights from your time away, hopefully some time spent relaxing and rejuvenating. Hehehe, loved the bit when you said 'all we've done is eat' hahah!! Yes that's exactly what you should do. Great to see around the cabin, lovely and spacious to be fair! You've got all the amenities you need so it's awesome to see. The beach at your first stop was lovely! Really pretty with the backdrop of the town. Really love the streets and the coloured houses of Spanish villages, so pretty! Mind you, how did the peacock get up there? haha, made me laugh. Very cool seeing the trams, so authentic. What a beautiful church in Lisbon, that was nice to see. I really enjoyed this Chris and Amanda, so fun to see your holiday experience, thank you for sharing it with us!
Nice sized room on that ship. All those crossings under the bridges look scarier now. Did you see the disaster that happened in the States in Maryland? The container ship hit the bridge and took the whole thing down! Yikes!!! Looks like you had a mixed bag of weather the whole trip. Glad you had a good time getting away from it all😁
Yes, I think the bridge in the states was the day before. Definitely a mixed bag of weather but we made the best of it. Thanks for the continued support Age.
Hi Chris, nice video. I had no idea the Canary Islands were so populated. How’s your Spanish? Did you take the train in Lisbon? Looks like your cabin was really nice. You’re going to have to get back on the trail and work off all those meals you had on board.
Sadly, I am not fluent in any language, Marcy. We just stopped at the station to get out of the rain for a while. The cabin was really spacious and it was a fantastic holiday. Yes, I definitely need to walk the extra pounds off. Thank you for your continued support, and I hope you had a blessed Easter.
We've been on a few, but this ship was too big. It holds 5000, and our previous cruises have been on 3000 capacity ships. It's a really enjoyable holiday, though. Thank you for your continued support, Cara. I hope you've had a great weekend.
Really cool this Chris I’ve never tried a cruise 🚢 the mechanics of running the shop would be fascinating but I know I’d eat way too much food lol 😂 Glad you enjoyed you Ti e at see mate 🙏🏼 Best regards Simon
I certainly ate far too much Simon. I'm used to one meal a day and suddenly I'm eating three. I still feel full now. It's going to rake some hiking to get it off. Thank you as always for your continued support.
47👍Wow !! Great presentation, GOD BLESS YOU DEAR , HAVE A NICE TIME Amazing dear pretty sister, very beautiful , wonderful coverage , greetings from HONG KONG @richscenic
Southerners: breakfast, lunch, dinner. Northerners: breakfast, dinner, tea. Chris: breakfast, lunch, tea. Best of both worlds 😂 Looks like a nice cabin you got there. Your dad's a trooper! You'll still be yomping up the Peaks when you're 93 Chris. Did enjoy the views from the boat, certainly a different perspective of the Canaries from what I'm used to! Aww Lanzarote is shut for the day 😂 Shame Cadiz was binned! Lisbon isn't so bad though. Except for the weather 😬 well hopefully you've enjoyed yourselves and now you've come back feeling refreshed albeit with a lot of food to work off 😁
Definitely a lot of food to walk off Matt but sadly I've agreed to work a three day week. So time will be even more limited. Until I get fed up. Thanks for the continued support Matt. I'm still catching up on your adventures as we had no Internet when aboard.
⛴🥳 i was wondering if you'd put anything up from your trip. looks like you had an amazing time despite the weather not being perfect. so many beautiful places. did they fold your towels and such into animals when re-setting your room? my mom always thinks that is so entertaining. i've never been. nice to see amanda! how many of you were together? loved the lights at night during that sunset and all of the ocean views. sorry the rolls weren't the best for all. thanks for bringing us along, chris! 🛴❤
They used to fold the towels into animals, but this seems to have stopped sadly. We made the best of the weather. I always get wet anyway. It was myself, Amanda, and my Dad. Him and Mum used to cruise all the time. I hope you had a great weekend, Anne, and thanks for your continued support.
@@chrisbentleywalkingandrambling awww no animals? boo! so fun for you 3 to go, even if dad's big focus was sleep and the next meal. 🤭 awesome he's still up for it at 93!
Hi Chris looks a fabulous trip this! Is this the same ship Rachel & Wills 🍻 went on or are there a few named Iona? We have never fancied a cruise but always enjoy watching other people enjoying them! Your room is nice a spacious! Some great trips on shore to Lisbon looks nice! Wow that bridge 🌉 will Iona fit under it 😮 bit scary after that incident in 🇺🇸 phew made it! Those waves are scary too! Nope definitely not for us 🤢 least you saw blue skies and had a fab holiday 👍
The ship was a bit on the big side for us. It holds over 5000 guests. We prefer the ones that hold 3000. But we had a great time even with the weather. Rachel & Wills? Yes, we did duck going under the bridge. Thank you as always for the continued support, especially in my dry spell.
A deviation from the norm but a great break and our first real holiday since covid. It rained, but we enjoyed it. Normal service will resume shortly.

£649pp for an inside cabin on P&O for Norwegian Fjord cruises for this year. I've just had an email about it.

Nice sized room on that ship.
All those crossings under the bridges look scarier now. Did you see the disaster that happened in the States in Maryland? The container ship hit the bridge and took the whole thing down! Yikes!!!
Looks like you had a mixed bag of weather the whole trip.
Glad you had a good time getting away from it all😁
Yes, I think the bridge in the states was the day before. Definitely a mixed bag of weather but we made the best of it. Thanks for the continued support Age.
Hi Chris, nice video. I had no idea the Canary Islands were so populated. How’s your Spanish? Did you take the train in Lisbon? Looks like your cabin was really nice. You’re going to have to get back on the trail and work off all those meals you had on board.

Chris: breakfast, lunch, tea. Best of both worlds 😂
Looks like a nice cabin you got there. Your dad's a trooper! You'll still be yomping up the Peaks when you're 93 Chris. Did enjoy the views from the boat, certainly a different perspective of the Canaries from what I'm used to! Aww Lanzarote is shut for the day 😂 Shame Cadiz was binned! Lisbon isn't so bad though. Except for the weather 😬 well hopefully you've enjoyed yourselves and now you've come back feeling refreshed albeit with a lot of food to work off 😁
Definitely a lot of food to walk off Matt but sadly I've agreed to work a three day week. So time will be even more limited. Until I get fed up. Thanks for the continued support Matt. I'm still catching up on your adventures as we had no Internet when aboard.
ciao friend L 2

Very cool, could have done with some better weather, thanks for the video.
It was a bit moist. Thank you for your continued support.
And there was me, thinking cruising was for old people.!!
Take That was a show on board and there was a Police tribute band. I'm officially old.

i was wondering if you'd put anything up from your trip. looks like you had an amazing time despite the weather not being perfect. so many beautiful places. did they fold your towels and such into animals when re-setting your room? my mom always thinks that is so entertaining. i've never been. nice to see amanda! how many of you were together? loved the lights at night during that sunset and all of the ocean views. sorry the rolls weren't the best for all. thanks for bringing us along, chris! 🛴❤
They used to fold the towels into animals, but this seems to have stopped sadly. We made the best of the weather. I always get wet anyway. It was myself, Amanda, and my Dad. Him and Mum used to cruise all the time. I hope you had a great weekend, Anne, and thanks for your continued support.
@@chrisbentleywalkingandrambling awww no animals? boo! so fun for you 3 to go, even if dad's big focus was sleep and the next meal. 🤭 awesome he's still up for it at 93!
Hi Chris looks a fabulous trip this! Is this the same ship Rachel & Wills 🍻 went on or are there a few named Iona? We have never fancied a cruise but always enjoy watching other people enjoying them! Your room is nice a spacious! Some great trips on shore to Lisbon looks nice! Wow that bridge 🌉 will Iona fit under it 😮 bit scary after that incident in 🇺🇸 phew made it! Those waves are scary too! Nope definitely not for us 🤢 least you saw blue skies and had a fab holiday 👍
The ship was a bit on the big side for us. It holds over 5000 guests. We prefer the ones that hold 3000. But we had a great time even with the weather. Rachel & Wills? Yes, we did duck going under the bridge. Thank you as always for the continued support, especially in my dry spell.
