    What can I say, another masterpiece. Your videos keep getting better and better. Plus it's nice to see Nichole in videos with you. It seems like married life is treating you well. Once again I love your sense of wonder and your recognition of the privilege that you have of bringing these experiences to us. By the way, I thought that your British Canal video with Nichole was also a masterpiece. Your sound design and the music that you picked for it were brilliant. It made me tear up a few times. Thanks Mike for all that you do. You're one of my favorite creators and, I believe, the only one who I feel like leaving comments on.

    Fun video, mainly cause I just love watching you and Nicole interact together and your wicked sense of humour. More Nicole! And I must commend you both but especially Nicole in her French pronunciation…spot on. Although I could admire the workmanship that went into recreating those attractions, it’s not for me. It is very reminiscent of Vegas. I don’t see the point. The luxury and novelty is ok but why not explore areas where you can learn about local history, sample food and meet local people. And pamper yourself in a beautiful hotel that isn’t masquerading as something else. Love your videos. For some reason, they haven’t come up in my feed for a bit so going to go check and see if I’ve missed some. 🇨🇦

    Winston Churchill didn't drink in places like that...not really.
    He started drinking in bed in the morning, waking up at 8am on the dot, with about a shot in seltzer water. Had another at breakfast (a full English breakfast each day). Then on his third drink he would smoke his first daily cigar while he read papers and dictated all his letters, followed by a late morning bath. He would then have lunch. At lunch he would finish a full imperial pint bottle of champaign with a full lunch. Ending in a glass of cognac. Followed by a walk in the garden, and his second cigar of the day. This was always followed by a 1 hour nap (in full pajamas and sleep mask). He would wake and have another scotch and water, dress. And usually as he head into work he would have his third cigar. Then he would work till dinner, which would usually be a multi-hour affair of political discussion. During dinner there would be another full bottle of Champaign, and another cigar. Ending the meal with another glass of cognac. He would then work late into the night usually finishing the bottle of scotch and having a few more cigars.
    He stuck to this schedule extremely rigidly and rarely varied unless absolutely necessary (even throughout the war). He credited his slow morning pacing and meals as his method of getting "thirty hours worth of work done in every twenty-four". And he did seem to manage to run circles around most of the other members of parliament.
    So he never really went into the whole happy-hour lounge/social club drinking thing.

    • @sprint955st

    This was a really fun surprise. The suite at the Londoner was far from the usual roadside motel rooms i've seen on Downey Live. When you turned down the two Michelin Star restaurant (and Nicole seemed disappointed) I thought maybe there was a Macao Tim Horton's nearby. I'm impressed by all the effort they put into these hotels.

    The mock Venice canal is pretty wild to see 😂 It appears to be a brick-for-brick carbon copy of The Venetian hotel in Las Vegas. I was there just two weeks ago, I compared a photo from the “same” spot you got the shots at 00:09 from, it’s totally identical besides only the shop names. Same creepy sky ceiling, fake building fascias, and matching layout. I wonder if the Venetian sold them the architectural plans? Or if it was just “inspiration”!

    I feel like a grown man just told me he had a pb&j for lunch, or a bowl of cereal as a meal 😂, I love seeing adults eat/pick kid food
