You absolutely ARE counting Scotland and Wales! Offended Scott here lol
And rightly so. All it would have taken would be 2 mins of research!
We are a United KINGdom. All under the King, but separate countries, with separate laws and governments. Definitely new countries.
As far as counting countries, I’d count them all because I’m sure the people living there consider them separate countries. 😊
Always good to error on the side of propriety. And I’m just guessing but a couple of visits to a Pub and someone will happily explain their politics 😁
Yes of course, like you did not always need a passport go into Mexico or Canada from the United States. They all share same landmass, but they are separate counties lol
Touring in the US we counted each new state entered.
Yes, it would make sense to consider England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland as separate countries since their citizens make that distinction.
@@baronderochemont8556 I agree.
Northern ireland is belong to ireland. Its just ireland, the north is ruled by britain thats all
@@patti4785 I've always tended to call Northern Ireland "the occupied territory"...but, that's me.
@@merrimcarthur7198 yep, unfortunately its all "occupied now. Fxxkn government 🤬
I think culturally you should count NI, S and W. Because they have been through so much and have individual cultures. They are very proud of their countries and languages.
Yes❤, diolch, thanks for mentioning, little Wales is also very unique!!
Very enjoyable guys. Remember, here in Ireland we don't call them Irish Pubs, they're just pubs.
My Grandfather is from Wales and we consider it a country.
My Grandfather is from Wales and we consider it a country. We have a beautiful family crest
My favorite part of this video is the discussion about the size of the road shoulder. You can change direction of your life to living in a van, but the road builder in both of you never will go away! 😂😂😂
Really love the use of maps in your videos instead of just saying where you are like most RUclipsrs. Really get a sense of the region with the maps.
We have a friend in Wales and they very much consider it a separate country. I would count them separately.
So exciting!! Welcome to the Emerald Isle guys!! ask around before parking up in places, its safe enough but you also gotta be diligent 🤗 so many beautiful places all over this isle but the rebel county is the best 😂 Co Cork 👻Welcome! Welcome! Welcome! 💚💚💚💚 the wild athlantic way is gorgeous. All love n light Curt, Snow, kitties, your home on wheels.. excited you're here! Well done you two!! xoxoxox
Welcome to Ireland 🇮🇪 weather has been terrible this summer. Youve proberly found out by now that roads are small & narrow here. You will find much better variety of cheese throughout Ireland. If you visit Cork city you should visit English market. Wild Athlantic coast is best way to see west coast. Hope you enjoyed your trip.
Restrictions are getting stricter for overnight camping, especially in larger towns & cities. This is mainly because of bad practices of minority campers, who have caused lots of littering etc
I can't wait to see more of Ireland, my husband's Great Grandparents are from there, so I'm anxious to see the country there.
Glad Snow made it back, safe & sound.
Safe Travels
The co-pilot is back❤! Cats so miss THEIR people! Ready to take you for a walk as always! Cats in front seat trying to evolve so they can do the driving 😂! The van Sparkles Curt! Angels at our call keeping you safe yet another way = lugs! A cautionary tale for us all. Love those UK taxIes, so easy in and out and have character. Yes, airplane travel can ZAP us the older we get. No place like HOME. I would love walking along those Cliffs looking out at the sea. Magical close up of the bee and flower. Got the "whatever" t-shirt Curt!😂 Appreciate the music as you weave in and out of those ancient charming towns. I would think those ferry moments would be so refreshing from all the driving and love looking over the railings with you. To see all the green coming up is wonderful. Most important, Milton on way to Florida. May your family and friends be safe with everyone else and have all the support they need. Emergency Personnel included. It occurs to me sharing the honor of your grandfather's Legacy shines LIGHT on the absolute front stage road construction must have in these disasters. Along with the electric. Roads everywhere devastated in south!😢Your life work brings that very much to LIGHT and I APPRECIATE it!❤
I make a really good asian beef dish with lots of leeks. One of my favorites. We spent our honeymoon 26 years ago in Ireland. Loved it! Drove everywhere.
👍🤩💝Awesome. I love Ireland. Enjoy. Safe travels.
Love the move to Ireland ❤. There’ll be a lot of comments about all the countries that constitute Britain, go,with what you want but know that each country will be offended if you classify them as states. Can’t wait to see where you take us in the next ep ❤❤❤
Oooo! Ireland! So cool. See if you can find a pub where they do "trad sessions" -- a casual and sometimes impromptu gathering of musicians who have come together to play traditional Irish music. I bet you would really enjoy it!
It is called the Irish Sea. The English Channel is in the other side of England.
My family migrated from Wigtown, Scotland, to Canada (then Michigan), and our family castle is Dirleton Castle in Dirleton, Scotland, built in the year 1240, about 19 miles east of Edinburgh. I really wish to visit it someday.
Welcome back Snow ❤. I bet it was a lovely surprise seeing the van/home all detailed. Curt did a great job ❤ x Enjoy yourselves in Ireland xx
Ireland is beautiful. My late husband lived there for 6 years and he loved it. He was born in Italy but considered himself Irish. I can’t wait to see your videos. Thank you. 😊
You will absolutely count them as different ones. Once you travel them you will understand. I just got back from traveling them all in July and it's not just one.
I am excited to watch these next videos. My ancestors are from Scotland and my husband's are from Ireland. My maiden name is Abercrombie and I know there are still Abercrombie's there in Scotland.
The Lake district is close to SwitzerLand scenery, deserve of visiting!!!
Love your new glasses Snow! They suit you! Love and hugs to you four, from the Canadian prairies.🫶🏻
What’s better than potato leek soup? I live in Maine now, but I’ve lived in SoCal and San Francisco, New York City and Long Island, and three years in Miami so I can’t credit leeks to where I’ve lived. Probably it’s the myriad of cooking shows, especially Alton Brown, that I love to watch. Love your videos too and your kitties. Those mountain trails Curt loves in the Alps and Dolomites may have curled my hair permanently: narrow paths slanted sideways toward a precipice! 🫣
Ireland is beautiful
Count them! Everyone calls them Ireland, Wales, and Scotland!
Snow, love the new sunnies. The frame color compliments your face.
Definitely count each country as its own. I consider the UK as a group of countries not a single country. Each of the countries has their own customs and culture. They consider themselves different countries so I think we should honor that.
We don't just consider ourselves different countries, we ARE different countries, we are just United as part of the United Kingdom with one passport control.
@@Lovingbeinglost well said. Thank you🙏
‘Sharp intake of breath). They are indeed separate countries. They are united under one King. They have their own governments as you mentioned and have differing languages and rules. (For instance in Wales prescriptions for medication are free. In England we have to pay). (In Scotland universities are free, in England we have to pay). Oh, and it’s the Irish Sea. X
It would have taken them just a few seconds of research not to insult so many people!
I hope they apologise.
@@Lovingbeinglost me too I was quite offended as a Welsh man.
Vanna looks very pleased to be in the UK. The weather will suit her coat too. Even though I'm an Aussie, I feel most at home in Ireland (well, that's where all of ancestors come from after all). It's the most beautiful country, with lovely people and good food.....after Australia of course ❤❤❤😎🇦🇺
The 10/09/2024 hurricane has wiped out Florida.🙁
Many homes lost.
Your lunch Philly steak wrap looks wonderful.
You really will love Ireland. I’m of Irish decent btw, great grandparents on mother’s side lived in County Cork and immigrated to America for work.
You’ll love Ireland.
AY, YO QUIERO IR A IRELAND, A VER A "Jamie". Hermoso pais.. Feliz viaje....love your videos, blessings!
A very interesting video, a very long time ago I crossed from Wales to Ireland (across the Irish sea) just like you did, but with very rough sea it was quite difficult to walk on board but great fun for those of us that weren't feeling sick......
Wow I though you just got to England? last video? When I went, I spent 9 days and saw very little of it, whoa now you are off to Ireland skipping over many places will you go back the same way? and maybe show more of Whales and Scotland I was looking forward to more of these areas aww 😟And of course you should count every country but, still hope you go back and spend more time there also😊
In this video they said they were coming back to spend a lot more time in the UK. Just going to Ireland first.
So interesting! Have fun in Ireland!
What beautiful scenery! So beautiful it almost me tear up. I want to go there some day. ❤
He and the cats definitely 💯 missed you . Glad you are home safe , only great journeys ahead 😊!
Wales and Scotland are definitely countries. It would be disrespectful not to acknowledge this.
Northern Ireland is also a separate legal entity.
So, add these three to your count.
So at the top of this video Curt was saying it was August, so now I'm thinking the hurricane that was experienced in your trip home wasn't Helene. So I hope your family and friends are all doing well from this very bad one, Helene!
This was a super video, so much to take in. I may have to watch it again! I had to laugh when you said you didn't want to jinx it but that so far the roads in Ireland were much wider. I did laugh because of a friend just went to Ireland last year and she complained how terrifying it was driving on these single narrow country lanes that had hedges so high that you couldn't see anything around you or coming at you either and everybody drives at such a very high rate of speed. Take care and again I pray your family and friends back home are safe!❤
My thoughts exactly. Was confused by the last video. Florida got hit bad but North Carolina… Who would have thought 😢
Prayers for everyone affected!
Hi guys!!! ❤ Looks like a new adventure coming up CAN'T WAIT!!! Kitty's are looking good ❤❤ Thank you for sharing 👍🎃🎉👍 Cheers 🥂
Welcome to Ireland 🥰
Hi Snow and Curt, So glad that you are enjoying Ireland for the first time. I know that you will enjoy all that there is to see whilst you travel around the beautiful country. Have an awesome time guys, love, hugs and prayers for you and your precious cats. 💓 🫂 🙏
Welcome home ❤ So, Ireland! Give us the lowdown on the BUTTER AND CHEESE, please 😋
I didn't realize you could take pets through to other countries like this.That's great! I can't wait to see Ireland! 💚
Thanks guys! I love your videos. Looking forward to your exploration of Ireland. Vanna had a great time in this video, she was all excited and wanted to cover as much ground as she could on her walk. LOL Could you keep up with her Kurt?
Oh boy, I can’t wait to see Ireland. It’s gonna be one amazing trip.!!
The second you said , "I don't want to jinx myself...' I knew you were jinxed. Somethings must always be. Love the beautiful lands and love the people. So happy you missed the hurricane, Snow. Hope everyone was safe. Onward and upward! Thank you for the ride.
I have never used leeks . I've been living on salad, tomatoes, tuna with jalapeno and diced mexican cheese . I don't know why, but that's all I crave. 😊
A lot of folk ,tour the ring of Kerry, my tip is definitely check out the Dingle peninsula, especially many of the side roads ,Googan bara ,was one memorable place.
Beautiful countries and I was surprised too by the color of the water. Luckily you missed the latest hurricane Helene, I am hoping your families didn’t suffer any big losses. Congratulations on your grandfather’s induction, what an honor. Keep safe as the world is changing so quickly and our news from you is two months behind. Love to the 4 of you. 🤗👍👍🙏🙏
As far as countries go, I think Snow summed it up perfectly. As someone from England, if I go to Wales, or Scotland, I don’t really feel I’ve been to another country. They seem more of a province - but I suspect people from Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland may say differently! It’s weird seeing my home town of Bromley on your map, even though you didn’t pass through - been following you since Mexico!
I'm so excited to see everything in Ireland. I'm Irish and I've always wanted to see it!!❤
Leeks are my fav. I make a leek tart, or potato leek soup. . But in general good to fry with just about anything. Another MUST are Shallots. Start using shallots fried with everything or as a garnish and you won’t regret it.
Your are living my dream: Touring Ireland!!!
Good that ure now in Ireland my, cant wait till u r in Scotland my country, although my grandparents are from Ireland, u will enjoy the "craich"😂
💝💘💖 Very nice haircut Snow! Glad you are back home! ❇❇❇
Those Americans seem to keep following you around... glad you could finally get rid of them! (if only for a month or two!)
Looking forward to catching up with you two again in Turkey!
Really enjoyed watching this one. Thanks for sharing your adventures! 🎉
I think you should definitely count each country separately. In addition to reasons given below, consider this: the US is one country, but each state is so different, that if someone ONLY goes to California or Florida or Minnesota, you would think they can’t really say they’ve been to America; they have only seen one state’s worth. Also, the Commonwealth of Britain is considered a consortium of countries. I really think it’s best you count each of these countries separately. ❤️
I got a bit confused when you said you had to try and escape the Hurricane in Florida, I thought you were back on our time space, but then you said you are in early August.
So I did a google on Hurricanes in Florida in July/August and found you were talking about Hurricane Debby and not Hurricane Helene. Thank God you are safe no matter what hurricane you escaped.
It was great going along with you today as usual! That creamy carrot soup sounded so good, and I found several recipes here on RUclips. I'll try it! The store you went to was huge. Lots of variety. I hope the kitties have adjusted well. xo
Thank you for posting awesome content. I need a break from the crazy media and the crazy things happening in the world. This channel is my getaway. Thank you for taking us along on your journey. Your videos are so beautiful and calming. 😍😘🥰
Welcome to Ireland 🇮🇪
My husband loves to go to any kind of pub Irish pub even in Mexico the Dominican they do have kind of a neat feel to him when you're sitting in them
I'm so excited for ireland ❤
Great videos! Love seeing your journey along the way. My wife discovered leeks😊 a few years ago and now uses them exclusively instead of onions. My body can digest them easier.
Vanna's really liking England & Ireland ❤
Yes she is
So amazing to just take a ferry to Ireland!! Luv ❤
Mmm leeks..beautiful flowers and beautiful to eat.. I use them all the time potato leek soup or pie, cockaleekie soup (chi Ken and leeks... yummy :)
Aw Snow and Curt.. when exactly were you in Ireland? We are from Dublin and travel around a lot in our van. Would love to have met you two in the flesh! Love your videos! ❤
I admire you guys so much. I fully appreciate that you need to take time off once in a while to recharge your batteries. So sorry that this summer in Ireland has been worse than usual but I hope you have been able to see the beauty of it when the sun shows itself in between the rain showers. I also hope you have been able to find some good scenic parking places along the wild atlantic way and watch your wing mirrors on the narrow roads! And yes, you should include Wales and Scotland (when you visit) as separate countries.
Also Snow you looked amazing at your grandfather’s special inauguration night in Florida 🥰❤️
You both got haircuts and look great. Snow, your new hairdo and glasses are smokin' hot.
They are their own countries
Oh wow, Waterford. I hope you go to the Waterford Factory, if it’s still there! ❤
I live in England in Bracknell, in fact not far from where you were in Windsor. I would definitely count Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland as a new country. Enjoy Ireland, somewhere I have never been, but hoping to do the Wild Atlantic Way one day
Hi guys
So glad you are back on your adventures and all is good.
Now here comes Ireland! What now to see? 🤔☺️
so far it's beautiful country
Looking forward to Ireland. I'm planning a trip to Ireland and then Greece next fall so I'll be interested to see your travels. We will have around 10 days and rent a car. Concentrating on the West Coast.
Happy to see Ireland with you 😊. sláinte!
The video was interesting and entertaining. Thanks for sharing😅
It's great to see you finally driving on the correct side of the road. 😂😂🤣🤣
Yes, I agree with most comments. Count the countries in the UK as individual countries. As a genealogist and historian they are indeed are separate entities.
Thank you Snow&Curt for another lovely travelogue ❤
Our pleasure!
My daughter moved to Ireland two months ago. I just got home to Seattle two days ago from visiting her for the past week. She’s in Kilkenny. You’re going to love Ireland. Place Delta Sensory Gardens in Carlow as a stop and walk through the two acres that Mary Reynolds designed. All of Ireland E.U. Is beautiful. I’ve only been to the south part of Ireland but I imagine the northern side is just as beautiful. Enjoy!
P.S. My husband is from England, and he said that Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland, and England are considered the countries that make Great Britain under the United Kingdom. Wales is beautiful, isn’t it? The Welsh language is so different. I know exactly where you are in Waterford ❤. I hope you get to the Ring of Kerry and Dingle.
Thank you for sharing.
We cook with leeks mostly in the cooler months. Try leak and potatoes soup. Several recipes on line. It warms your tummy, specially in your part of the country. But I just realized that as you read this you are probably out of UK on the way to warm climates. Thank you for another great adventure. ❤😮😊 liliana H.
I love seeing your shopping trips to see how the locals live and comparing prices abroad. I love your new haircut and glasses, very sharp! I'm so excited to see Ireland and Scotland. I've been to London and nearby areas like Windsor, Stone Henge and Bath. I agree with you Snow that it's nice to go someplace where everyone speaks English. Looking forward to all the adventures.
I am loving your trip in Europe you are taking me back to when we lived in the UK. You are correct Snow you cannot count as individual countries 😄Ireland, Scotland, Northern Ireland Wales, all under United Kingdom 🇬🇧 I didn’t make it to Ireland but it’s on my bucket list , loving you adventures🖤💚💛one love
I love each country you been going to and the kitties you have are so BEAUTIFUL ❤❤❤
Welcome back, Snow. Really looking forward to forward to the Irish tour.
I love your glasses Snow! :) You got transitions! Awesome!
Welcome to Ireland Snow and Curt. Hope this was in September and October. Love and hugs and hope the weather holds up for you. Cead mile failte. This means Welcome in our Irish native language.
Ireland and Scotland sounds amazing, Maybe one day for me, enjoy
What great music!!!
We are glad you enjoyed the video @kalaloch07!
Counting countries is the name of the game. I’d recognize their identity as named. Consider current policies as well as historical customs. You sure get around and we are glad you are bringing us along on your own current ‘road projects.’ Your roots are meant to roll! What’s next? Meow for now to the kids.
Beautiful ❤️
Beautiful places you're visiting! ❤
We loved Ireland. You will too!
