A day out in London from Doncaster on the LNER Azuma with trip on Cable Car
I rarely buy extras because of weight allowance. I also only buy where locals shop, as love curtains and fabrics with lace, and usable gifts for loved ones. I might squeeze a few extras in! It looks fun!
Sunny Beach is a dedicated resort. It isn't really a place for locals. Pretty much all of it is hotels or holiday apartments. To shop like a local you'd probably have to go further away from the resort. I'm not sure this sort of stuff will be there though. It isn't available near our house. We've never seen it at least so I think its mainly only available in resorts like Sunny Beach.
Does it have height restrictions on the big slides?
Yes I think most of them require you to be at least 130 cm tall.
Very interesting journey, and excellent filming. Deserves a lot more views and comments.
Thanks that’s very kind of you.
Ahoj Díky pěkné video chtěla bych se zeptat jak dlouho trvá cesta na pláž ještě jednou díky kuji❤️ 7:05
Je to jen asi 10 minut chůze na pláž v Ravdě. Není moc daleko.
thank you for the video. could you compare other expenses such as rent, utilities, bills, and transportation too? also, I recommend you to use T market for grocery comparison since Lidl is bringing their products from abroad thus increasing the prices.
I don’t know about rent as we don’t rent in either places plus it’s just too broad across the whole of the UK and Bulgaria to compare, same with house prices. London would be very high in the UK but smaller towns would be much cheaper. Sofia or a small Bulgarian town vs a rural village would also be very different. Utilities are generally cheaper in Bulgaria. It’s one of the lowest in the EU for energy prices. The UK is very high but is consistent and generally works all the time. In BG we constantly get charged for air instead of water because of useless management by the water company so that sort of offsets it a bit. I’ve seen quite a lot of Bulgarian produce in Lidl. I think Bulgaria produces a lot of things like mouthwash too which I’ve even seen in the UK from Bulgaria. Fruit and veg seems to be mainly from Bulgaria too except outside of non seasonal stuff and bananas etc. Meat is also from BG mainly like most countries. T Market doesn’t really seem much different to me either. A mix of products from Bulgaria and EU countries. Lidl and Kaufland are just way more conveniently located for us. I’ve also never been as impressed by quality in T market personally. Transportation is hard to compare too as the UK would have better overall transportation for trains etc but this can vary where you are. London is great of course but somewhere rural in the North East is going to be badly served. Buses/trains in BG will be cheaper of course but less connected than in the UK. I’m sure UK prices will be higher too for transport but it’s faster and better connected. Fuel prices are higher in UK too.
hey, great video's!! i saw u don't smoke but do u have any idea if u are able to smoke in the resort? thx!!
Thanks very much. That’s a good question. I think you can smoke in most outside areas and on your balcony but not in the rooms or inside areas.
Ahoj chtěla bych se zeptat jaká vzdálenost je od hotelu na pláž díky za odpověď a za pěkné video❤️
Děkujeme za milý komentář k našemu videu. Pláž v Ravdě není příliš daleko. 10 minut chůze řekl bych. Je to velmi blízko a jsou zde také obchody se suvenýry a další.
great video idea
Thanks very much. It was a nice trip on the boat. One of our favourites.
You made a good choice crossing in Bretagne she is a cruise ferry built in 1989 & is being retired this year she is in a class of her own & will be missed by many people like me who live in Portsmouth who have travelled on her many times, I’m really happy you enjoyed your time onboard 😊
That is sad to hear. I didn’t realise she was being retired. She does hold a special place in my heart too. I used to work on the Brittany Ferries web sites and used to see her name all the time. It’s only years later that I actually got to travel on her. I’m glad I managed it before it was too late.
@@emzfamily I believe her last ever crossing is November 3rd & I will try to make that crossing to say goodbye to her, I’m not sure if she will be deployed elsewhere in the Brittany Ferries fleet but I’m guessing she will be sold on due to her age 🥲
@@sdsferrodee yes more than likely sold on I guess. I have often looked up ships that I’ve seen on old documentaries etc as it’s fascinating to see what happened to them. Sometimes they are just living a new life. Sometimes they have been dismantled unfortunately. Hopefully the Bretagne will live on.
@@emzfamily I think she has a few more years in her with new owners probably in the Mediterranean like alot of our ships, I’m the same I like to see where ships have ended up & some I’ve even travelled on in their new lives, a lot of them have hardly changed inside just the new owners livery on the outside 😊
@@sdsferrodee yeah it’s fascinating really. Hopefully she ends up in the Mediterranean as you’ve said. It would be a nice sort of retirement for her.
35:00 very client friendly 😂
Yeah she was a bit miserable.
@@emzfamily I do appreciate all clips you guys are making. Me and my family will be going to Aqua Nevis on the 19th of August. These clips are really helpfull. Thank you and enjoy your holiday further.
Thanks very much. Hope you enjoy your time at Aqua Nevis.
Hi we are coming out at the end of the month. Can you haggle like Turkey or is it a set price? Thanks
I didn’t haggle but I did see others doing it so I don’t think it’s out of the question.
Yeah haggling is common NEVER pay what they ask 😊
I think it looks pricey to a savvy shopper like me!
@@user-bp9wq6ll4i I'm sure you can haggle with them.
Hi Just a quick question, were there any borders check from the UK to Bulgaria?
Yes there are checks on the French border, Romanian and Bulgarian borders.
Great video mate.
Thanks very much. Glad you enjoyed it.
For that price it was pretty sh*tty place for sure . Shame for that , Romania can do better
Oh yes it was just this place. Most places we’ve stayed in Romania have been excellent. One of our favourite countries to travel through.
Hi Folks. Live your videos. We live in Lomtsi. Where in BG are you guys.
Thanks very much. You’re not too far from us actually. We’re near to Opaka so other side of Popovo from you I guess.
Why not compare lidl Bulgaria to lidl UK?
Ideally we would but you can’t get prices easily online for Lidl. Maybe some items but not all. We took the view of comparing what we actually do ourselves. We shop in Tesco in the UK as they deliver but in Bulgaria we have to go to the shop so we go to Lidl. Tesco has lots of prices which match Aldi who are generally considered the cheapest in the UK so I think Tesco does compare well.
@@emzfamily are you in Bulgaria?
@@andycale8831 yes we are in Bulgaria.
@@emzfamily and me 10 years now
Just park your car outside the city center (where it's still completely free), and walk downtown. It's an easy and enjoyable 10-15 minute walk 👍
Yeah we’ve been doing that since this video.
@emzfamily You can park in neighbourhood Vazrajdane (Възраждане) - very close to both the city park and the city center, and take a nice walk from there. Just park it around or next to the apartment buildings. It is free there. No need to park at such boring and gray places like the parking lots of Praktiker and Kaufland.
Beautiful Bretagne shes a stunning cruise ferry 👌👌👌. Very elegant and luxurious. You must try the commodore cabins next time 😊. Great video. Ive been sailing on Bretagne for 35 years now shes kept immaculate 😊
Yeah it was a very nice ship and the crew were very friendly too.
I live in Croatia and get most of my groceries in Lidl. Most things mentioned are not items I buy but the prices in Bulgaria seem similar to those in Croatia. I virtually never buy beef here because it is at least twice the price of pork. The cheapest fresh meat here is a pack of 2 chicken leg quarters at €2.75/kg.
yeah very similar to Croatia I think. We were in Zagreb earlier this year. Lovely city. We really enjoyed it there.
What is Uk? Good if Ukeyistan is ok. But this is not good
Economist here. Yes, Bulgaria is cheaper than the UK. Grocery prices are mostly an exception thanks to the vastly different approaches to agriculture and food retail in the two countries. This video exaggerates that by picking an extremely british based basket (cheddar, sliced white sandwich loaf, beans) topped off with fruits and vegetables that Bulgarians don't normally buy - especially not from supermarkets - because the country has such a large non farming agricultural sector.
Yes, I'm guessing that in Bulgaria a lot of people eat what is in season from the garden and in the winter they have stocks of preserved food like pickles.
People in villages do but people in the cities live similar lives to people in most cities.
@@emzfamily If that were true, there wouldn't be large amounts of gypsy women streethawking veg in Sofia.
@@FlatDerrick there’s always people trying to make money on the streets. You see that in a lot of places.
@@emzfamily There are, but in developed countries they don't usually influence supermarket veg prices.
At 9:00 you show what is clearly aged flatiron (similar to Ribeye) which in UK Lidl is £21.50-22.50 per kilo, so the same for similar products!
Yeah more looking at the cheapest option in both countries rather than exact like for like. Cheapest steak available really.
Lidl in BG is not the equivalent of Tesco in UK! CBA stores or smaller grocery stores in towns are generally a lot cheaper than Lidl - only rich BGers and expats/foreigners shop in Lidl!!
There must be a lot of rich people in BG as it always seems pretty busy to me with Bulgarians. Always found the quality to be lower in CBA. Not sure the prices were much different either to be honest. Tesco in the UK completes on price with Aldi which is generally considered the cheapest place to shop so I chose mainly Aldi price matched items to put that up against Lidl who we find to be generally the cheapest in BG that has good quality food.
@@emzfamily maybe it is area specific then - where I live in a small town near Varna, the Lidl is always quiet and is considered the pricey place to shop. The small CBA in the centre of town on the other hand is always busy and definitely cheaper - a more limited range of products perhaps but I haven’t had an issue with quality - so maybe it is a regional thing 🤷♀️
@@writerlass5924 yeah could be quite regional. CBA isn’t as accessible either where we are.
You can park on the road at the side of Dunav hotel but it’s 1.20 lev/hr. Or you can go in Riga hotel car park but ask reception first if it’s ok.
Sounds like a good option. We shall keep this in mind thanks.
there is real good app for food pic.from britan Street bee.
Noboby liberated Ruse, Bulgaria was occupied by the Soviets after WW2. Also Bulgaria was never a Soviet country, since it was never part of the Soviet union.
Do they offer bread at the breakfast? Or something like pancakes or croissants?
Yes they had lots of different types of bread at breakfast. They also had pancakes and croissants.
Careful where you park in Bulgaria as they will stick your car on the back of a truck and impound it, happens all the time in Sunny Beach
Yeah luckily this didn’t happen. We have overstayed there before and nothing happened but I wouldn’t rely on it. We tend to park on the road next to Kaufland now. Which everyone has started doing since they brought in these rules. Pointless if you ask me.
dude you are immigrant potential criminal the same as me in USA
I don’t think so but thanks for the comment lol
Great video!😊
Thanks very much.
What month did youse go
@@davidowens1572 I think this one was end of August into September but we also have a video of when we stayed at the same resort at the Palace hotel which was June into July.
@@emzfamily which one would you recommend pal the palace or the mare
@@davidowens1572 I would go for the Palace if you can. You get an extra pool and the food seemed a little better overall.
do you live in opaka just wonderd what village is like ?
No we don’t live in Opaka. We just visited the pool there which is great. It’s considered a town but does have quite a village feel to it. There are more shops and restaurants there though than a typical village so it’s a pretty good place to choose to live.
And please temperature of swimming pools in the hotel and aquapark? Some people wrote, water is cold for their children. Thank you for information.
I think it depends when you go. If you go at the beginning of the season and the weather is not quite hot enough it could feel a little cold initially when you first get in the water but I wouldn’t say it’s really cold or anything like that. We didn’t have any issues and we did go quite early on at least one visit. If you want heated pools though you might be better looking at our Sol Nesebar videos as their pools seemed to be heated and a bit warmer but Aqua Paradise had the big Aqua Park so you would lose that as the slides at Sol Nesebar are good but obviously not on the same scale as Aqua Paradise.
The beginning of the season you think start of June or start of July?
@@marketasoukupova3470 I’d say the start is June and should be pretty hot come July.
Your wife is so sweet staying in the back with the baby.
Yeah she does put up with that to keep Chloe entertained.
Hi, please, Is water in swimming pools sweet or salt. Thank you for information.
From memory they weren’t salty. They seemed quite fresh and not too chlorinated. Just right I’d say.
Terberg shunters are what you saw - and yes, lorries deliver full trailers to the departure port where shunters load them on to the ship(s). At the other end more shunters unload them and once import procedures are complete then hauliers send lorries, or more accurately the tractor units, to collect them for onward delivery. Very efficient, but no good for perishable items! No matter which port you use you will see that shunter drivers all appear to be either completely mad or unusually highly skilled (or possibly both).
Yeah they also delayed us getting on the ferry really. We only started boarding once they seemed to have finished. In other ports the lorries just drove off and we boarded quickly but I guess the boat must be smaller or this is a budget option of some kind. Very interesting to watch the guys swivel round and drive either way. Very cool.
I love the video and the way Rachel is taking care of the children is so cute. Looking for to starting my own family next year
Thanks very much. Yes taking care of all three children lol. Good luck with your family.
You do know this f series x5 is a e70 which is just a heavy facelift
It’s more of a face tuck for us as it has less premium features than our e70 did. Like no moonroof. Not to mention the leak through the aerial that we had to bodge up. However it does seem to drive much better and smoother than the e70 did. It’s also much cheaper on tax and fuel than the old one or the L322 was. Maybe not on oil though lol. I think there are a few new features in this one too that we didn’t have on the e70 and the idrive is much better and even the newer aftermarket android screens seem really high quality these days although that’s not really relevant. Overall I feel it’s a big improvement over the last one.
It depends what your after. This is softer than a e70 . Its easier to drive and more forgiving over bumps and so on. The e70 especially the lci ones are proper beemers where you get what you get. This shape was designed for a bigger audiance to suit all
I don’t know I’ve been driving BMWs most of my life and it feels very much like a BMW to me.
The f15 doesnt drive nothing like previous bmw's..
Respect dude.
Are you going to Aquaparadise this year Steve?
We’re not really sure what we’re doing this year. We don’t have anything booked yet. I expect if we do go somewhere we’ll try somewhere new. We went to aqua paradise maybe three or four times in a row. It’s a really cool place and I’m not sure we’ve found anywhere that has all the same facilities but we will probably try somewhere new. Hopefully we haven’t left it too late to find somewhere.
Car looks nice! What happened to the L322?
We still have it as we were so worried this car wouldn’t work out and break down on the trip we held on to it rather than have to buy another car again. The jury is still out on the X5 but if it does survive the summer then we will sell the L322.
Interesting route you have chosen so as reach Bulgaria. Any specific reason for this one?
We just wanted to go a different route to what we've done before really. We've been the the main route more times than we can count. We also had never been to Slovenia or Croatia before so that was also a big draw.
Do you guys live in Bulgaria full-time or just a few months Per year I'm hopefully moving out soon and enjoy watching your channel thanks Amanda.
Thanks very much that’s nice to hear. We try to spend as long as we can really but it varies every year for one reason or another. Good luck with the move. I’m sure you’ll love living in BG. If you haven’t bought a place yet just make sure to research the village carefully if you are moving to a village that is. Check with other people in the same village, local Facebook groups etc what the water and electric supply is like especially. We have had issues with water in recent years unfortunately.
@emzfamily I've just bought a house in a village but I think I've been lucky I checked with others I found 1 person who lives there she loves it and says its a fantastic village and a few others who live close by have said the same so hopefully it works out OK it's about 20mins drive from VT so maybe see you guys there in the near future 😊
@@amandamegarry2061 excellent I hope all goes well. I’m sure it will all be fine. Yes we’re not too far from VT. Closer to Ruse but we do like to take trips to VT as it’s a really nice little city with great sights and restaurants.
@emzfamily Hopefully I'll get a we trip to Ruse as well looks a lovely place from watching your videos just can't wait to get over alot to get sorted here first .Well I will let u go looking forward to your next video .Amanda.
@@amandamegarry2061 we just drove over so I will start editing the videos tonight and hopefully new ones will be up soon.
Great video. Would you know anywhere in Nessebar that would be showing the FA cup final ? Or does the hotel show matches?
Thanks very much that’s nice to hear. There will definitely be bars showing big matches such as the FA cup final but probably the best bet is sunny beach rather than nessebar but there may still be places there too. Probably not in the hotel though although they may screen the euros so you never know. The other option is a fire tv stick with a VPN app such as expressvpn and just watch it via iPlayer.
Camera quality is really good in 4K ❤
Thanks very much. The Osmo Pocket 3 does a pretty good job.
What is your experience of using DFDS? It’s vastly cheaper I find than using the channel tunnel. Just booked to go this summer and the ferry is over £100 cheaper than the tunnel. My only gripe is the time the ferry crossing takes vs the tunnel.
We had a great time on the boat. It’s a relaxing experience really compared with driving down to the channel tunnel and the bigger queues there. We did end up paying quite a bit but I think this is because we booked it unwittingly during school holidays. We loved the buffet at both dinner and breakfast. Found the basic 4 berth cabin to be ideal and a decent size for us too. We’d definitely do it again.
Nice Video! Have stopped at this service station a few times and it’s a great experience. Shame you didn’t have time to cross the bridge and do a walk that leads into the mountain cliff. As a matter of interest what is your experience of Italian motorway drivers as you went into Italy? I drive to the south of Italy and they drive at 130mph (NOT kph) tailgating one another and it surprises me how they don’t pile up on each other.
Yeah we had a similar experience to yours regards to tailgating lol. Even in the north of Italy. We had a really bad time to be honest but we think there was some kind of holiday on at the time and all the roads were jammed and we got stuck many times when we weren’t being tailgated, beeped at, undertaken etc lol. We will be going back through Italy again shortly so we’re hoping it’s a better experience this time. Switzerland was great though and we really wished we could have spent a little longer there but actually what we did get was a nice surprise for us.
@@emzfamily thanks for the reply. I find that going through Switzerland in the summer as a means to enter Italy is chaotic as there are so many holiday seekers that are travelling south into Italy and there is always massive queues of traffic as the Gotthard tunnel is always busy. We have sat in traffic for 2-3 hours some years. The top tip is to try and plan your trip so you do this stretch of driving either very early morning or late at night as opposed to during the day when there are more motorists on the road.
Would be good to get a total fuel cost vs toll charges for this trip, would make an interesting watch
I think we did show all the costs as we were going along but might be better next time to show a summary at the end with the complete cost.
Hi. Thaks for all you videos, it made us book😊 how mutch was the boowling? Is it close to a beach? Are there slushie and ice cream included in the all inclusive?
Thanks very much. We didn’t pay for the bowling actually. It was free on one of the days of our stay. I expect the same is still true now. Yes there are beaches very nearby in Ravda. 5 mins walk away. Ice cream and slushies are all part of the all inclusive.
Nice footage and shots Emz.
Thanks very much
you're welcome@@emzfamily
