Are you going to do a “review” once all the vlogs are online talking about your favourite and least favourite parks and rides of the trip?
well if he does I can guess the least favorite lol
We will be indeed!
Nice one👍🏻
i guess I am quite off topic but does anybody know a good website to watch newly released series online ?
@Evan Kabir Ehh I use flixportal. just google after it:) -zyaire
I think the travel vlogs are just as fun and interesting as the park videos, especially for someone like me who doesn't get to travel much.
"We've not really hit much traffic at all, fingers crossed its going to continue that way"
...driving through rural Indiana lol
Spot the British guys, driving left lane on an empty road ;)
Maybe you should of had slept a third night at cedar point and had the whole of next day to drive to Dollywood (13 hours at theme park and 8 hour drive afterwards 😮😴)
We definitely should of!
I think they could have done a different park order, from South to North, so there wouldn't be stretches of long driving. But, I'm sure the park-order was chosen for a reason
Glad to see that Brett stuck around. We'll have to see if the air mattress got a positive review lol.
You can also access cedar point by driving down a road with million dollar houses on it.
I'll have to do this next time!
Which road? I go every year and always get stuck going thru the city.
@@tequilasunrise950You go through the city and I'm not sure how exactly you get to it, my parents did it once, you can probably find it on Google maps or something like that. The road is called, cedar point road, it leads right into the parking lot of cedar point.
Why didn't you guys plan more rest days? 8 hours in the car after a full day at Cedar Point is insane. It must be really hard to enjoy the next park when you're so tired and to be honest it kinda shows on some of the vlogs. Less parks and more rest days might have been a better idea.
We definitely should of had more rest days but we managed it!
Great Wolf Lodge is a chain of water park resorts around the country btw. There’s also one near Carowinds
Thanks for the information!
There is also another way into the park. The causeway you were on is the main road but there is lakefront houses along the back side with its own entrance and exit. You can also get into the park that way as well. Next time you drive into Cincinnati get a shot of the skyline as you coming from Kentucky. Its beautiful
Nice. Finally a new USA road trip vlog with on ride footage :D
The rain you had at 4-5 minutes, is how it normally rains where i live (for a couple of hours). 2-3 hours drive south'ish to Oslo, they call the same rain, Extreme weather :P 2-2.5 hours drives then a short break. That's how you do it to keep "fresh" for 7-9 hours drives (or longer).
@8:45...ummm that's a daily rate Shawn lol that's for fornicators 😂🤣😄
I need to catch up with the park vlogs but really love travel vlogs! Will you be doing similar vlogs when you go on your trip to Florida with Charlotte?
Yeah, hopefully they did. Floridian cities and Charlotte both have nice skylines
We will be indeed!
Blows my mind you went to dollywood from cedar point after a full day. Seems like kennywood or Canada's wonderland would've been the next logical park after cedar point.
We definitely should of had a rest day but we somehow managed it!
13:16. The lodge is owned by the Great Wolf Lodge. Unfortunately, I found it mediocre. The room was okay, but the pool closed on a Friday night at 9:00. I thought it could be open for another two hours.
From Ceder Point to Dollywood you basically did the equivalent of driving from the South of England to Mid Scotland.. You're crazy but your passion has to be admired.. Enjoying these Vlogs.. Looking forward to the rest :)
We are indeed, thanks for watching!
Sounds like it's gonna blow mate hehehe I swear it's like watching the Three Stooges!! 🤣😂😄
skyline views for the various cities exceptional!! that blow up bed was PRICELESS !! I LOVE IT !!! THAT'S HOW YOU IMPROVISE!!
We had such a good laugh!
You could've done Dollywood after Kings Island and Cedar Point between Kennywood and Canada's Wonderland
Ahh the traditional Holiday World exit, in a torrential downpour. It's a lovely area, but boy does the weather get particularly crazy down there.
Shawn (starting the Dollywood drive): This is the one where a lot of people said you're not going to be able to do it, you're not going to be able to stay til close [and then drive 8 hours]
Ian Malcolm: Yeah, but you were so preoccupied with whether or not you could, you didn't stop to think if you should!
I am genuinely impressed that you did the drive when you did, I could not have. But I think the Dollywood Day 1 video bears out that you would have benefited from resting and doing the drive during the day.
Will Patterson in hindsight they should’ve just stayed at Cedar Point a 3rd night and used it as a travel day. You’re so right coz Alex went back to the car early & Shawn looked so poorly. Maybe he was doing it to prove everyone wrong, but it back fired
We managed it and appreciate your support!
Domino’s in the backseat 🙌🏻
Oh yes!
I saw that and had a chuckle!! 🤣
Getting to Cedar Point is always an adventure. It’s never on main highways, which makes the drive much more interesting!
Glad Brett stayed. What a decent lad, so chilled - pity he lives in the US
He is awesome!
More milk was consumed in this video than I've had in my entire life lol
That Milk would last in our 4 person family for weeks and weeks. I am absolutly fasinated by how much milk this guy drinks. Not a bad thing I suppose, I have just never seen that.
$2.79 a gallon for gas?! I know you pay a ton more in the UK, but I just paid $4 a gallon today in California. :(
In my area of NewJersey its around 3:97 but you are also getting people to pump your gas....
Hello from Iceland where we pay nearly 2 dollars per litre. So about 7.5 per gallon if I'm not mistaken
16:04 I see you're in Norwalk. During the day, that city is impossible to drive through. Hence why when I do the Mason to Sandusky trip, I take a different route. But at night, it's beautiful.
Loving the travel vlog. That rain was intense. Thanks for showing the room.
This reminds me of the West Coast Tour me and my mom did. I felt the same feelings as you, Shawn. For two days, I’m in my hometown which is LA then transfer to Las Vegas for two days, come back, then go for two days going to San Francisco and then coming back again. The next time you do this, make sure to allow yourselves to have a free day between days where you go to the parks.
How was driving in America compared to the UK?
We found the driving easy enough!
Canadas wonderland is close enough to Cedar Point. Surprised you didn't do that next. Driving 500miles after 2 days at CP to Dollywood just seems bonkers.
We had to come back up that way later in the trip so we decided on this route
The drive from Cedar Point to Dollywood would of been hell!
It was long but worth it!
Crazy? You guys? I think the answer is plain enough. I've dubbed you three the 'loose articles'. Now with Bret, the low-talker. And ya know those bumps in the road between lanes? They're meant to tell you you're too close to the line, not as a therapeutic massage for the driver.
We had no issues driving on the trip, everything went fine!
Another awesome video. Loving these USA vlogs.
Some states require the daily maximum to be posted to prevent price gouging in case of emergencies. For example if there is a hurricane and people want to stay in a hotel instead of their mobile home, or mobile homes get destroyed and people have to stay in hotels, obviously the demand will go up and hotels will raise their prices substantially. They cannot legally charge more than the daily maximum rate.
These travel vlogs really bring home how much work you guys put into this. Yes you visit all these amazing parks, but the hours you put in travelling, editing on the road and still maintaining your energy and enthusiasm is pretty damn impressive!
Thank you, there is so much to it!
Right now I'm having chicken tenders, fries, and a whole carton of milk while I watch TP.W!
Me on a Sj train back from Kolmarden
Edit: Oh.. and now a slice of leftover pizza!
@@angelofacipieri How was Wildfire?
@@fuzzytabby4304 It is fun, not too intense
Love this!
Hi Shawn I'm loving these travel vlogs and this American Trip!
We really enjoyed putting these together!
wait, he bought an air mattress? Those look like queen sized beds. You can easily fit two people on a queen bed.
We all wanted to make sure we had separate beds!
Thanks for this road trip vlogs, are really interesting.
From Cedar Point to Dollywood after a park day you are pretty insane lol 😉
Love your roadtrip vlogs.
Also love your channel. You have helped make me live my life again.
I mean I lived before, but I never went and experienced new parks, and now I have a merlin pass, jump in my car and of I go.
I thought if you can do all this traveling to parks, so can I.
Brill comment!!
hey fellas!! superior vids as always !! the travel vlogs are like a bonus from your usa trip! i absolutely love your vlogs!!the skyline from these parks are simply outstanding!! that's why no other theme park vloggers can touch THEME PARK WORLDWIDE!! thanks again guys!! TAKE CARE!!!!
Thanks for your support!
Good old Brett for buying the pump up bed, surely you can share a bed as they are queen size.
He found it rather comfy!
The Carew Tower in Cincinnati was actually designed by the same architect that designed the Empire State Building, and it was built before it. There’s also a bridge in Cincinnati that was designed by the same guy who later designed the Brooklyn Bridge. Good eye!
Phillip Poindexter I’m really impressed that Shawn recognized it as Art Deco!
How do you cope driving so far overnight and then doing a day out!!!!??? Even doing a 2 hour drive to Legoland makes us tired and it's barely a thrilling park and it's not as far away as these American parks!
We don't know how we did it but we did!
please don't drive in the left lane if you are not passing anyone. This is a huge problem in America and is the direct cause of most of our traffic jams. It is very unsafe to force other drivers to pass you on the right. Plus, some states don't have driver education, so its really a bad idea to trust those people.
Did I miss the footage of the Travel lodge hotel room near Dollywood?
For some reason it never made it into the edit by error
@@ThemeParkWorldwide That's a shame. I stayed in Travel Lodge a lot in Australia and was wondering if they looked the same in the US. Nevertheless, I love this roadtrip and all the vlogs from it. Thank you so much for sharing it with all of us. :)
...cheers alex you passed our weather machine test. Harp is no joke. Im glad you boys got a real adventure here in the states.
We did indeed!
The travel vlogs are great and I love the way they are completely unscripted and natural. but why don’t you just add them to the beginning and the end of the normal Park vlogs ? I understand that in your mind you want to keep the park vlogs and travel vlogs separate so it’s easy to catalogue. However this trip is massive ! It’s special and should all run in order.
It’s a road trip and seems weird the way you posting them, it just don’t flow. It should be one massive story in order. I mean you don’t watch a top gear special and see Jeremy Clarkson building a bridge across the nile then 30 minutes later on comes a edit of him driving to the river.
I really enjoy your vlogs Shawn and I have watched you come a long way in presenting over the last few years. You have a talent for the camera and have great gift of speech. My comments are only to help you further your career.
Take care
Rob
Thanks for your feedback! As we filmed 29 vlogs in total across the trip, having separate travel vlogs was something I decided to do instead of posting them in with the theme parks themselves! I'm glad you enjoy the channel!
why does alex drink so much milk?
He just loves it!
I should’ve mentioned this before, but if you park at patriot park; a trolly will take u to the main entrance.
At Dollywood*
Dominos pizza breakfast of champion's
13:09 It isn't owned by Cedar Fair. It's one of the many Great Wolf Lodge hotels with an Indoor Waterpark! I been there a couple of times as well as the one near me in Fitchburg, MA and some others!
Thanks for the information!
Poor Bret sleeping on an air bed. I'm sure 2 little ones could share a big bed.
Joe Brooks maybe he needed one?
Brett was quite happy on his air bed!
UGH Rodeway is the worst hotel I have ever stayed in. Never again.
CP hotels do run shuttles to and from the park but it's only at certain times I'm pretty sure
We asked and there was nothing sadly
@@ThemeParkWorldwide Yeah I wasn't sure but I've seen buses go there that are owned by CP in the past but haven't seen them this year 👍 Do you plan going back next year?
There are numerous Wolf Lodge accommodations around the country. Nearest for us is down the street from BGW. Every single one has an indoor water park.
Thanks for the information!
24:41 and they were right. You were a completely different person at Dollywood and Six Flags Over Georgia. Hopefully you learned from this it's just terrible planning not to take days off at least 1 day off here. Its a major safety concern and even making it safe you will be cranky and it will end up the way it did and you will not have a good time. Talking about not caring much for Lightning Rod and Thunderhead? I thought thay was pretty bad but then you called Twisted Cyclone a family coaster lol. I can't imagine what you guys were like off camera I have a feeling it wasn't pretty. Well hopefully you found yourself at Carowinds, Six Flags Over Georgia was just painful to watch.
We took on way to much this trip, definitely lessons learnt!
1am in the morning and the bed's about to blow-up !
I'm sure that would have caused a disturbance and taken the vlog a whole new Direction!
It was so funny!
Great I've been looking forward to this .
Just how many times have you eaten chicken tenders/nuggets on this trip so far?
Way to many!
That was called great Wolf Lodge that’s right next to Kings Island that hotel you saw I know it looks a lot like wilderness Lodge theres an indoor water park in the hotel it’s a chain it was started by two guys who were the original owners of Noah’s ark waterpark
2 questions
1. Did you have any trouble driving on the other side of the road?
2. And I mean absolutely no offense. I wear glasses and I'm wondering your prescription strength.
We had no driving issues and my glasses are quite strong!
Shawn, how does Castaway Bay compare to the Express hotel you stayed in last year.
I preferred the Express Hotel definitely
The hotel looks alright. It surprising how many hotels don’t cater for families very well (Disney hotels are pretty much two double beds). The travelling would kill me now. We would have to take a few days off in between!
Should have got Brett added onto the car driving for bits!!! Some days you must have just crashed out completely.
We were so tired!
I like watching the travel vlog
Alex is so nice and funny
Great best friend
It was a fantastic trip, very tiring though!
Lol! I did a 4am to 3pm drive to Dollywood in the snow once over Christmas with my friend... We were gutted that Lightning Rod ended up being closed but FEAR NOT! I got on it the summer afterwards :) The other two drives that speak out to me are Cedar Point alone 3:30am to 8am in the fog with nobody around and From Kings Island to Home 6pm to 3am by myself lol!
I can’t believe how much Mac Donald’s and chicken tenders you lot eat!
Way to many!
6:43 in the video you're 5 minutes from my house. It was great meeting up with you! Btw, That Hotel is Great Wolf Lodge and isn't part of kings island.
I remember staying at Castaway Bay when it was a Holiday Inn years ago. It wasn't built from the ground up by Cedar Point and it looks about the same as it did a decade ago 😂 Edit: It was actually the Radisson Harbor Inn and opened in 1989. Thanks wikipedia!
@16:15, Alex needs to slow down. At 1:30am in a small Ohio town, driving over 40mph in a 25mph speed zone will get you pulled over fast!
Luckily we had no issues along the trip!
Look at Alex swerving all over the place as they leave the parking lot in the beginning. 3 lanes and he couldn’t decide which one he wanted. 😆😆
Great video
Hey that drive is nothing I know of a stockcar driver who lives in Fife race cowdenbeath on a Saturday night and st day in Cornwall on a Sunday afternoon 585 miles and back at work on the Monday and that's a van and trailer. Great video me and the wife have watched them all so far looking forward to carowinds to see the Dale Earnhardt ride
Just a tip but if it's not necessary you don't need the whipers to go that fast. It takes away visibility if they go that fast
Did you guys pick Brett at the airport or something?
I'm wondering the same. He seems more American. Where does he live? Ohio? For work? C'mon. Details! Lol
Brett is from the UK, but lives in Florida.
He lives in Florida but is from the UK
It is so amazing to see you drive on the same roads and throught the same city of Cincinnati I always drive through.
12:53 is Great Wolf Lodge. Those hotels are really neat. I’ve been to the one in Williamsburg, VA and had a blast.
@4:00 Alex! I think you went over the yellow line there bub 🥴
Eh, you know lines don't count in the rain.. hahaha
@@Justaman183 I do know that lol I cross them many times in 75 when its dark and raining..but you didn't hear that from me Ha!
Gotta love them travel vlogs
Thanks!
Now I understand why you look so tired at Dollywood. 8 hour drive starting at 11 pm!Ooof!!!
You guys were cray doing the long drive but I reckon a few cans of red bull would’ve been needed along the way!!!
Great third travel Vlog Shawn from your USA 🇺🇸 trip
2.55 the most ethusiastic employee of the year lol hahaha #nopointcleaningwindows
I believe the big hotel next to King's Island is a Great Wolf Lodge.
It feels so weird to hear you say rock hill. Grew up one exit north from where that econo lodge is.
You would have driven past my hometown in Southern Kentucky!
Shawn I’m planning a 2 week trip in July this is one of the favorite travel vlogs because it inspires me because I’m making a trip from Carowinds to Hershey Park is 7 hrs 503 miles. My trip plan is leave Minnesota to Kings Island for 2 days 13 hr drive then go to Dollywood (1 day), then Carowinds for (2days) big drive to Hershey Park for a day then possibly stop by Knoebels in the evening on Saturday then finish the trip at Hotel Breakers at Cedar Point for 3 nights then drive back to Minnesota 13 hr drive can this be done in two weeks? July 11-27. CP July 19/22. Scott
Have a fantastic time! I'd definitely say it can be done, however it may be tiring!
Cheers! I've only just discovered your channel and I have to say, Well Done My friend. I've been reviewing your southern California trip back in2015 or 16 not sure. On your trip to Knotts Berry Farm you rode the Log ride and Calico Mine train. Quick FYI, that log ride predates Disney's Splash Mountain by more than a decade maybe two and the main theme of the park is based on an actual Ghost Town off the 395 highway that travels along the eastern state line between Cal and AZ and Nevada. I mention this cause I think you would enjoy a trip to that park that is now a State Park "Calico Ghost Town. cms.sbcounty.gov/parks/Parks/CalicoGhostTown.aspx . Look forward to enjoying all your videos
Thanks for sharing some information! We visited Knott's back in 2015 and enjoyed it!
Also it was raining so bad because it was the remnants of hurrican Barry in the south.
go to adventure island southend there's a new ride called axis it's a frissbie ride that goes upside down
I’m enjoying these vlogs
Thank you!
Wow ya'll had the rain! It has been a rainy year here in the Good Ole USA!!!
Hey Shawn i am making a movie of the whole series or episodes of your TPW's Big U.S.A. Giga Trip that you and Alex have been, so i put them in order from the TPW park vlogs & travel vlogs & of course adventure shawn vlogs in that video.
We'll be making an official video of this for our channel in the future
0100, let's blow up an airbed😂😂😂
Great series of videos guys, I am really enjoying them. (Just found your channel, I am a little late). As someone who loves a good road trip I have to say this has been a nice distraction from the COVID lockdown we are all enduring. Next time you are in Ontario, Milk is on me. (note our milk is in bags so I am not sure how that would work, you may need to bring your own jug)
Thank you for watching!
Very enjoyable vlog always makes me smile seeing Alex drinking his milk will help his toe heal up . Thank's Lads ! :-)
I really enjoyed this travel vlog
Thanks!
12:47 it’s summer kids aren’t in school
Hi shawn Alex and Brett really enjoyed this travel vlog. You are amazing all the work that has gone into this trip for us to share with you. Well done love to you all Xx ps: Surely Lovely Brett could have jumped in with one of you .😊😊 xxxxx
We had such a laugh!
