Absolutely Fabulous. The View, the food, the quiet beach and the Finale....You must have pinched yourselves...I nearly cried. You have a fabulous life, absolutely amazing. Hugs to you both. 🎉🎉🎉
🎶"You make me feel like dancing" 🎶 😉 Love me an any star dive bar! Ichabods is probably named after the character from The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, an American classic. Pronounced ick-ah-bahd.
Great vlog - loved the launch! Sunrise made me think of doing a Coast to Coast (well that’s what we call it). Watch the sunrise on the east coast, then drive across and watch the sunset on the gulf all in the same day, stopping at interesting spots along the way. Fun times!
What a delightful room you had at the Radison. A view yo die for. Great to see you out and about trying different food and drink venues. All looked amazing value for good good. They could improve the area by putting in better walkways for those travelling by foot. Thanks for sharing this very interesting vlog x
This was a really enjoyable episode for us Maxine and Barry 👍. As you know, we can't sing the praises of Melbourne Airport enough, but Melbourne itself looks great. Love the hotel you stayed at and the beach and bars look great. Never had crab legs and may need to give them a go, but they do look like spiders legs which puts me (Lee) off. I love a rough local bar and you need to take us to one in May. If we ever do a three weeks plus stay in Florida I'd definitely do two or three days in Melbourne before our flight chilling at the beach and relaxing by the bar. Maxine is clearly a Yorkshire. lass and also like me.... you have to taste the alcohol in the cocktails or what's the point 😁. That sunrise shot was fantastic 😍. We would have drove straight past that local breakfast place looking at it from outside, but what a surprise when you went inside and the price was great. Don't judge a book by its cover. We do love your James Bond beach chairs, the little cool bag pocket is a good idea and will work well with those little frozen blue freezer blocks. Maxine does like her crab and I can't remember the last long me I had it, it probably was in Scarborough and served in the shell, but I'm intrigued with these legs....much meat on them? Easy to eat? And do you have to use nut crackers to eat them? WOW, long comment. I'll message you my questions about Melbourne, dive bars and crabs so no need to reply 😁🤣🤣.
This was a very good video reviewing Melbourne Beach. So glad you took us to a couple of eateries. I am thinking of revisiting the Rad just for the beach view!
Love this! I’m local, I actually live a couple streets over from you two. And your reviews are always spot on! I enjoy really seeing things before booking, I appreciate your transparency and honesty. I will be staying at this hotel, and visiting these places as well! Thank you!
Took me a sec to figure out that was a rocket launch. Lol. Your salmon and crab dinners look amazing and a great price. I just felt like I had a 45 min vacation. Thank you!❤
Hi Barry and Maxine I met the crazy Scottish neighbor last night in the lucky leprechaun, I can’t believe the lodge guys will be here, looking forward to all your videos have a great time
Absolutely beautiful beach in Melbourne..lovely hotel ..went to Melbourne beach but nearer the 192 fabulous...thank you for a great video again Barry & Maxine xx
I grew up in this area and was amazed to see how you walked A1A. Take a drive a little further south and you will find the Blueberry Muffin or go north to Sun on the Beach in Satellite Bech which used to be a great breakfast place. There are so many little places along A1A from Cocoa Beach south the Melbourne Beach. For a good Sub there is Doubles which has been around for years.
Wow! Loved the ending. We went to a launch a few years ago (on holiday from Scotland) and got to T minus 2 minutes and it was cancelled! Enjoyed the vlog. 😀
Chillin' with a Mimosa on a Sunday morning. Sounds good to me Barry. Have you tried looking to the right as you come into Melbourne on the 192? The beaches are great and there are toilet blocks and showers.
Wow, beautiful video at the end, you timed that right; it looks a lot more impressive in the dark! I had forgotten you were on the space coast! I`m amazed at how cheap the drinks and the breakfast were; I live on the west coast of Canada and haven`t seen prices like that in years! Our restaurants were closed for a time during covid and were hit hard, consequently prices increased quite a bit. Lovely relaxing weekend for you guys though.
Yes, it always ranks high on one of the best places to live in Florida. It used to be in the top 10 but as house prices have risen due to its popularity I think it’s now in the top 20
Just watched the Lodge Guys vlog, and saw that they brought you over some Crunchy Nut cereal. I was so surprised, cos when I visited, and when watching some UK vloggers when they visit Walmart, the choices in the cereal aisle is, imo, incredible! I always used to bring home a couple of boxes of Life Cinnamon. I managed to buy some boxes on-line from a UK website, that specialises in US groceries. I was so disappointed, as they must have changed the recipe/ingredients. Not nearly as cinnamony. I stumbled across a US website re. this issue, and there were many complaints from US citizens. So disappointing when companies do this. It's happening here with many grocery items I buy.😠 I guess we all like what we like, but I do get envious when I see the amount of choice compared to UK supermarkets. Anyway, I hope you enjoyed them. Probably all consumed by now!😢
Melbourne has been in the news a lot because of the high crime rate especially in downtown do think this is a significant enough problem that I should reconsider moving up that way from Palm Beach County

Thank you so much!
Best launch I think I have seen, amazing thank you 😊
It was amazing
Oh didn’t expect that view wow wow wow from the look of the hotel, those chairs are amazing love them!!
It's not a cheap hotel, but you can see why from the view
Really enjoyed this vlog, Melbourne looks like such a nice place. And I need one of those chairs, they're very handy 😊
They are quite heavy to carry but worth it.
Don't know about that . Cool song.😍
Oh my!! I have been a space fan all my life...thank you!!
It was an amazing sight
Hi Guys another fantastic vlog. The crab looked amazing making me feel very hungry. Take care xx
Max does like her Crab
Wow what a view 😍
It was superb
Like the "Hi" clouds during the launch. Some good special effects there 😂😂
🤣
What an amazing finish to the vlog. 👍
And the night , it was pretty spectacular
🎶"You make me feel like dancing" 🎶 😉 Love me an any star dive bar!
Ichabods is probably named after the character from The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, an American classic. Pronounced ick-ah-bahd.
Ahhh good to know , thank you

What a great idea
Wonderful videos and I’m so loving your musical background choices. Nicely done!
Thank you so much 😀
Wow what an epic ending!!
It was amazing
Looks like a lovely trip you had! 😍😍
We really did

Yes the lack of walkways is a bit of an issue

I'll message you my questions about Melbourne, dive bars and crabs so no need to reply 😁🤣🤣.
Max only uses the crackers on the large pincer claws. Max says a pound of legs at a minimum to get enough meat out of them
Great vlog as usual. Cheers to you both 🥃 🍻 🦀
Thank you! Cheers to you as well
Looks like our kind of couple of days! Strong drinks and good food. Hope you had a great time.
That about sums us up lol
Hi baza,.my hubby wanted to know where you got your blue glasses from,loved the hotel n view n what a way to end the vlog 👍x
They are called Wearoyo from Amazon.com
This was a very good video reviewing Melbourne Beach. So glad you took us to a couple of eateries. I am thinking of revisiting the Rad just for the beach view!
One of our favorite spots, we plan to do a day trip again soon
What a view ❤
Indeed, spectacular
Looked lovely last time we went there it was flipping freezing but it was feb lol x
Good blog looks a nice place and the view from your room amazing the sun set beautiful 🌅 Thanks for blog 🌻
Glad you enjoyed it
Fantastic ending , reminded me of when my late husband took myself and our daughter to a launch. Thanks for the memories
Glad it brought back some happy memories Lesley ❤️
Love this! I’m local, I actually live a couple streets over from you two. And your reviews are always spot on! I enjoy really seeing things before booking, I appreciate your transparency and honesty. I will be staying at this hotel, and visiting these places as well! Thank you!
Awesome! Thank you!

Took me a bit, too! It was so cool!
Thank you for following along
Wow what an end to the video. Amazing view.🚀
We were blown away by it ourselves as well

Yes that’s the risk with launches . That one had been cancelled twice before so we were lucky to see it
Cadillac Cove was a nice place for lunch and a drink.
Good to know
Chillin' with a Mimosa on a Sunday morning. Sounds good to me Barry. Have you tried looking to the right as you come into Melbourne on the 192? The beaches are great and there are toilet blocks and showers.
Yes, and there are free spots on the main road by the beach as well with toilet blocks and showers. It's a great area
Brilliant to see you thanks for taking us along. Have a great weekend - Kevin & Cyndy UK
Thanks for coming along with us
Another great vlog, amazing to catch a launch too! Shame I was humming a Leo sayer song after you mentioned him tho 😂
Well when you feel like dancing, you've got to dance the night away
@@ThemeParkBazza😂😂
What a great vlog! I'd love to visit that area and Cape Canaveral on our next Disney trip
It's so good!
What a beautiful sun rise.
Yes it was!. Even after defanging myself to get up at 5am to set the camera up lol
Wow, 4 pm is late for check in, hope you could check out late.
12pm check out
Another great video!
Thank you

Prices have gone up since last year but are more reasonable than say Cocoa Beach as Melbourne is more locals than tourists
Love the video!!!
Thank you!!
Stayed at the Radisson in Oct 2014, £80 a night for an exec room, how things have changed. Thanks for the video and rekindling of memories.
Glad you enjoyed it
Great vlog
Thank you!!
Hi, whete did you get the really nice chairs for the beach? Those are very nice!
Should say Where did you get them.
From Amazon
Mrs B here is beside herself and is so envious of Maxine with those Claws ❤️❤️. Thanks for the Vlog 👏👏
Max does like her crab for sure
Can recommend the Crown Plaza, had a great stay there in 2021and the breakfasts were good as they were included in the room price.
Excellent, that may be next year's choice
We were at Kennedy space centre on Friday, saw a rocket launch which was an unexpected surprise, was amazing, got a few more days and then back to uk.
Those rocket launches are spectacular. I'm glad you got to see one close-up
Love the beach , but the Atlantic is a bit rough lol 😂 great vlog lovely sunset x
It is very rough compared to the Gulf of Mexico
@@ThemeParkBazza I prefer the Gulf of Mexico , the pacific is also quite rough along the big sur !
❤❤Beautiful xxxxxx
Thank you! Cheers!
Do you think the Melbourne area is a good place to live based upon your experience there?
Yes, it always ranks high on one of the best places to live in Florida. It used to be in the top 10 but as house prices have risen due to its popularity I think it’s now in the top 20
i think youll find its called Lou"s blues, as in lose, not luis.
I need you to get a graphic and a TM for ‘5 star Dive Bar’ 😂
Lol the original thumbnail had it but I thought it might put some people off
What exactly is a Dive Bar? Did you actually get up at sunrise?
A dive bar is a rough and ready bar, slightly better than a biker bar. Yes I was was up an hour before sunrise to set the camera up
Just watched the Lodge Guys vlog, and saw that they brought you over some Crunchy Nut cereal.

Anyway, I hope you enjoyed them. Probably all consumed by now!😢
They do not sell crunchy nut cornflakes here
@@ThemeParkBazza All that choice, but just not the one you want. Typical!
I have never seen anyone else walking. Is it a Brit thing?
Yes, because we are used to being in small towns we walk everywhere
Melbourne has been in the news a lot because of the high crime rate especially in downtown do think this is a significant enough problem that I should reconsider moving up that way from Palm Beach County
Really, we don't see much Melbourne news in Orlando
Melbourne is more the mainland. Beachside is small town and very little crime.
Thanks guys
Our pleasure!
