Dont ever start doubting yourselves , It is impossible to please everyone , Just keep doing what you do best x
It may have been 20 years ago.
But it was yesterday.
Thanks for showing that.
Love the music you chose for these videos.
We went up the Twin Towers 10 days before the attack. There was a young lift attendant who made my kids laugh so much. I hope he wasn’t working that day.
Fabulous Vlog. Hope you’re enjoying the USA . Thanks for all you do to help us plan future trips . Love you two x
Being a NYer for many years now it’s always so enjoyable to see the city through new eyes. I thoroughly enjoyed your enjoying my city. I almost wished I was there to show you more. You definitely must return in late Spring. The concrete jungle blooms if you can imagine that 😊
Great vlog . My first time in New York was only a few years after 911. The buildings were still in a demolished state there is such a surreal atmosphere there where you can sense the sadness. I've since been back and visited the museum. Thanks for showing us around again I love New York.
The vessel (22:23) is actually closed (probably permanently) because people constantly kept jumping off/committing suicide 😢 so it’s just sad that such a beautiful (and expensive) art installation basically can only be enjoyed visually.
Amazing vlog guys, this brings back so much emotions when I visited last April especially the 9/11 memorial. I thought New York would be a one and done visit but I completely fell in love with the city and visiting again this November. Can’t wait for the rest of the vlogs
Thank you so much for visiting the 9/11 memorial. I think every American can remember exactly where they were when it happened (I was woken by my mom who saw it on the news after her doctor appointment). I've not been to NYC since 9/11, and I was surprised how emotional I got when you were showing what you could and giving your thoughts. Many thanks for another great vlog.
What a fabulous vlog, loved every minute. The memorial looked so interesting, very emotional x
We went to New York 3 months after 9/11 to pick up a cruise.That was extremely sad as they were still digging and clearing the site, what was heartbreaking was a long fence around it covered with numerous pictures and messages saying these people were missing , very very emotional.
it was an eye opener for sure
It was the late 1990s when i went to the top of the original World Trade Center. Approaching both huge buildings side by side, looking up and up and up with my head completely tilting ever further back, it was so inspiring. I still remember the huge area in front and I can see the lobby inside. On the observation level there were cubbies where you stepped down and sat on a small seat, in front of a ceiling to floor window and it was just you and the view. There was a gift shop in the center of it all. Every time someone speaks of the museum and show the waterfall now in the foot print, it takes me back to that day and how absolutely scary and i still had family in New York. I was close to tears when you described the museum. I have gone to see the waterfall but i have not wanted to see the museum since i heard it is very powerful. 😢😢 i did see the construction going on for this new tower around 2006, that transportation hub was just a shell with construction fencing all around.
love your videos so much. have always wanted to go to new york and travel abroad so this is fascinating and exciting. feels like we are exploring with you and i’m learning so much (lots of things i didn’t know) xxx
I’m in the city all the time and I’ve yet to go to the memorial, I’m still not ready. I was a senior in high school living in CT and would go to the city often, a friends father died in the 2nd tower. I remember the streets covered in missing signs, so unreal. Thank you for showing this, was great to hear about your experience. ❤. Hope you had a lovely time, definitely come back when it’s warmer 😉
Great vlog, once again! Your tribute to the 911 museum was very heartfelt. The Buddhakan looked amazing! Great to see the insides of some of these iconic restaurants! 28,000 steps...well done! And by the way, Leigh, your hair is looking great! Just thought that I'd throw that in!
Such a good vlog.
You e shown us So much more to explore when we next visit.
Happy holidays ❤
New York City! ❤ Awesome vlog! 😁
Thank you for your reflections on the 9/11 Memorial. Brought me to tears. I can’t believe it was 20+ years ago. I still remember where I was and the panic trying to check on all of my loved ones and that they were safe. Those souls, may they be at peace, and their family continue to be in my prayers.
Enjoyed this video very much. Made me want to visit NY again after almost 15 years! So many new things to experience. Thank you for the awesome videos 🫶🥰
I love how informative your vlogs are. Great vlog guys, can’t wait to go to NYC one day.
Loved this vlog so informative and interesting I think this has been one of your best vlogs I loved seeing all the buildings
Really enjoyed this. Out of your Disney comfort zone is so much more interesting. Loved the music too, well done Leigh.
Wow, what an interesting and full vlog, you did so well to do all you did in one day and to get to bed early...Nice for you both to go to the restaurant where your Mum and Brother visited....looking forward to your next one.
First thank you for your kind words on my comment from the last video, very sweet of you. x Second...Wow, you packed in so much into one day there. NYC is one of my fave places and I so wish to go back, but it's been hard to picture the city I fell in love with in the 90s to how it is now since 9/11. Even being in Canada the news and watching the day unfold still plays in my mind as dear friends who lived and worked in the city and in the towers were trying to stay alive. Thank you for showing what you did of it. It's definitely a planned stop for when I do make it back there again.
Brilliant vlog. We visited the 9/11 site and memorial museum back in 2007, and it was alot smaller than what you guys experienced as it was a temporary site at first before everything was built. Felt exactly the same as you did, but so glad I went to visit. The hubby is very jealous of your Ghostbuster firehouse visit. ❤
Loving this vlog series. Your thoughts about the 9/11 memorial and museum were very thoughtful and touching. I grew up in New Jersey and remember 9/11 so vividly. My husband and I visited NYC in 2021 and went to the museum. It was very emotional.
Looking forward to the rest of this series. Love you guys!!❤
Looked amazing guys, loved seeing places where most people know the films/ series such as friends my fave, google maps all the way 🎉can’t wait to see the next adventure xx
Brilliant vlog, loved it. Took me back to the places we visited . We visited Brooklyn Bridge on our very first morning as we were up at 4.15am 😮. We were on the subway at 6.15 in the morning and got some great shots of the sunrise on Brooklyn Bridge but unfortunately missed the stalls on there as we were to early for them xx
I thoroughly enjoyed this vlog. The 9/11 remembrance museum does hit you in the gut. I had just moved to Florida when it happened. You never forget where you were or what you were doing on that tragic day. ❤️❤️
Thanks Tammy. Glad you enjoyed it
Fantastic vlog. Held so much interest. You are both making the most of your time in NY. You could feel the emotions emerging when speaking about 9/11. The Food looked scrumptious. Every Day is Best x
Catching up a day later after yard work and surprising my niece and nephew with plans for a Disney trip. Great video. Stay safe and happy travels
The memorial museum is such an important place, but like you say very sombre, i was in tears, you can understand why they have tissues dotted around. Beautiful video x
I enjoyed watching this and you gave me some great ideas for next time we go
Loving your videos, I’m fairly new to your channel, love it, your both great an so funny xx
I thoroughly enjoyed this vlog! I loved the style of filming and the music - everything! It was great, looking forward to watching the rest :) x
Thanks Holly
I can't even begin to imagine what it feels like to visit the Ground Zero Memorial. You could feel your emotion when you were talking about it. Thank you for sharing.
I can confirm that the High Line is gorgeous in the summertime - we walked it in early September & it was very lush & green with water features in places & plenty of shade from the leafy trees & plants from the sun. I love NY & so glad to see you enjoying it.
My fav time to go has been early Dec tho to see the Rockefeller Tree all lit up & all the Christmas lights 🥰
Really enjoying these vlogs so far.
We found you purely through recommendations on Its Orlando time a while back. We enjoy all your vlogs and not just the Florida ones. You got us pricing up New York for next year 😂 Great work guys!
When in Dumbo taking the photo 📸 on a clear day makes a great picture because on the right angle though the arch of the bridge you can see the empire state. Enjoying the vlogs thanks guys Carl & Sam
NYC is not easy to navigate, you guys did incredible!! Welcome to our city!! What an amazing day wow such experienced travelers
Brilliant vlog guys - Kevin & Cyndy 😎
On countdown for my kids bedtime so I can watch this in peace 😂 cannot wait x
Fantastic vlog takes me back to my Trip in March 😊
Loving these vlogs … xx
The Dumbo shot is famous for being able to see the empire state building through the middle of the bridge. We also did this when we visited
Touching experience ,have a great time guys you deserve it all you have been through x
Hi Nick and Leah, recently new subscriber, first time posting. Your vlog, visiting New York came in perfect timing for us. It was wonderful thank you. My hubby Matt and I will be in New York in July for 2 nights with our son and his girlfriend. And not forgetting our dog as well. We live in Upstate New York hubby is American and I am from the UK originally. Matt and I are sailing on the Queen Mary 2 dog and all 😃for 6 months back home for me. It has been to long since I was home. How I found you guys was, once we reach Southampton we will take about 3 days to get to Scotland, it's slower with a dog but we would never leave him behind for so long. We had booked two nights in the Cotswold's and 1 night in the Lake District. Looking on RUclips as you do and found the vlogs. Doing the Wold's. With you and Leah and your lovely Mum. I am so sorry for your loss. I have been hooked on your vlogs since. Going back and seeing older ones. Now you were in New York about 6 hours away from me. The info you guys packed in was amazing! - we are staying in Brooklyn for the 2 nights before boarding. ❤ p.s sorry for the novel.
Wow! You guys did a lot for your first full day… loved the 911 museum… Was very sobering… It was great seeing Carrie’s apartment and the restaurant… Amazing as usual guys… Love ya!❤️❤️
I can't bloody wait to watch your journey on down the West coast. It's the best thing on the telly imo! So few have done it. I hope you 'make it big' you certainly deserve it. You're utterly fabulous, and real and 'normal' best vloggers. Lovely blokes, couple... I'll shut up now, shall I, haha! I just think you are both the bees' knees! Your relationship and dynamic is better than Married At 1st Sight, you are SO different, but SO IN LOVE! I love you two! I just love it. Best thing on the telly ! Hands down!
Such an interesting vlog, thank you ❤
Fantastic vlogs! Really enjoying them :)
Thanks Laura
We went in November l have never felt cold like it but the Christmas decorations make up for it you s look so excited ❤❤
Great video guys I loved it now I want to give to New York but I think i will wait for warmer weather but again I loved it
Great vlog. I was watching TV that morning, and I saw the 2nd plane hit the tower. So sad... Thanks for sharing.
Absolutely love this, you both looked very emotional after visiting the 9/11 museum, I remember when it happened so clearly. My daughter was born exactly one year later on 9/11 and my son 3 years later on the same day x
Fantastic blog ❤
Hi guys, great content as always. A slight negative was the music used over conversations. My wife wears hearing aids and found it difficult to understand what the guys were saying when background music was playing. Maybe try music at a much lower level or keep it for montage sections.
Thanks for continuing to share your adventures with us 👍😁
Great vlog!! Looks amazing and want to go myself now!! The tribute to 9/11 was lovely!! Loving the new little style to the vlogs and music is perfect!! X x
I was waiting to hear your thoughts on the museum and you summed up exactly how i felt when i did it. It was just so quiet and somber. We are going again next March.
The picture of Brooklyn Bridge was on the poster of once upon a time in America
knew it was in summat
Really enjoying this trip good stuff 👍
Thanks Kyle
Lovely video again
We enjoyed the High Line walk to Hudsons Yard last June it was beautiful you really need to try it again in warmer weather 😊 we ate at a lovely restaurant near the vessel ❤ we stayed at The Kixby too ❤
Hi Nick & Leigh
You guys have definitely got to go back when the weather is warmer. The Highline in the summer is at its best MAY is perfect time to visit as it’s not so hot that you can’t enjoy it. Also when you finish at the end of the highline (Chelsea Market end) you should walk to Little Island it’s a floating park on the Hudson with views over to Hoboken & down to the financial district xx
What a great video! It is so difficult to explain the museum. It is something you need to experience if visiting NY.
If you’re not crazy about broccoli sprinkle red wine vinegar on it. I now love it that way. Great informative vlog.
The 9/11 tribute was very moving 😢. We visited ground zero in 2005 and it looks very different now….. Loving following your journey around New York, can’t wait to get back out there sometime 😍 xx
NYC is perfect in the fall!
We stayed in the Metro hotel 2008, I remember it was close to Empire State & Macey's. Now when I type it in your hotel comes up 😮 I remember it being a lovely hotel & wondering if it is the same hotel? I've got a photo of me rubbing the gold bull for luck (not suitable due to what I was rubbing) 😂😂 love reminiscing through your vlogs. We also stayed in the Wellington, the other end of Times Square x
9-11 memorial I just cried and I know what you mean its surreal. I struggled with the museum term as you this of it as outside you lifetime and I remember that day so well. You could tie blue ribbons to a wall when we when in 2017. One think to mention to is they put rose on their names on their birthday on the fountain wall, we saw a family seeing this happen. Truly awful but I think it is very lovely done ❤
Just watched the vlog nothing wrong with it at all imo 😊 great content again 👌
Thanks Amanda. We watched it through several times to make sure we were happy with it. We really liked it ourselves :-D
@@TheLodgeGuys ☺️☺️
We travelled to New York from Australia in November 2022 and visited most of the places in this blog. The 911 memorial museum was definitely very moving. TI read The Vessel was closed due to many suicides from the top.
Aww yes Dee so truthful, love Wednesday wisdom, it is my fave.
Yes I think your probably right about ww charging in the future for lifetimers as in the uk that has always been the case even 10 years ago when i previously did weight watchers there is a reduced fee when you get to lifetime status.
Great vlog , we have booked New York for September first visit, some good tips especially for the subway.Did you find the dollar slice pizza 🍕.
If you look through the arch of dumbo bridge you can see the Empire State Building , we loved New York and would love to go again , it was 2018 when we went and it was so hot, we went in august ,
I got used to the subway after a couple of trips, used citymapper which is also brilliant. Also I stayed in Brooklyn whilst I was there and have friends who live there, loved exploring Brooklyn so much.
The High Line is gorgeous in the summer but when I was there it was well over 30 degrees so very sweaty but was still gorgeous. The Lobster Roll and Frozen Margs from Chelsea Market helped. Re The Vessel as far as I’m aware it’s closed to walk up because a 14 year old committed suicide there so has been closed since then to reassess the safety.
Great vlog, will definitely be using google maps when we are there next week, bit nervous about the subway 🙈 9/11 museum is on our list, felt teary just watching you guys talk about it ❤️
Can’t wait for the next one, should’ve saved these to watch on the plane! xxx
The Subway is easy, honestly youll be fine. Let us know how your trip goes
@@TheLodgeGuys will do xx
Guys thank u for showing City Hall still can’t believe we got married there❤
I found the New York subway very confusing at first… sure you’ll get used to it x The Memorial has to be done, however difficult and emotional it is…. It’s amazing, so so sad x
That was a lovely tribute to 911 😢 it looks absolutely freezing 🥶 xx
I love that you went to Budakan 😮
WE GOT ONE 👻👻
Sorry I couldn't resist 🤣🤣 I was in new York, in times square where ray parker jr was filming the video for ghost busters , they blocked off the street to filming the music video , if you watch video you see a crowd of people in background I was in that crowd with my ex hubby 🤣🤣👻👻👻👻
i know your in new York but i can't help but miss your florida intro music 😂
Love the vlogs guys, keep them coming….Did you get to see the Harry Potter shop down by the Flat Iron or take in a broadway show at night??? NYC has so much to see- we were only there for 4 nights 5 days & only scratched the surface of what we wanted to do- planning on going back burnt ideally want to catch it in x2 periods- summer & Christmas which I assume will be mental- but so worth it
No we didnt see a show. We can see most of them in London if we want to so wanted to do other things instead. Really want to see the Harry Potter one and wouldnt mind seeing the back to the future one too
The 911 museum is a must for everybody. How you described it is exactly how i remember it very emotional. I also remember the aches, pains and blisters after all the walking haha.
Thank you for visiting the 9/11 remembrance tower. It was touching to hear your thoughts about it. I remember that day so well. I lived in Kansas City, not there, but I worried about my young children in their grade school: What if the terrorists are everywhere? Even there? The Pentagon was attacked. I served 10 years in the Air Force and that seemed unbelievable to me that they could attack the Pentagon. So I felt no place was safe from them. It took a very long time to get past that.
I always gave money to the fire department after that: they stood on corners holding one of the big black firemen boots out for drivers to put in money. My son is now a city policeman in St. Louis city, a dangerous city here in Missouri, where we live now.
It was a very humbling experience
❤❤
I remember when we went up the top of the south tower on the Saturday before it came down , we enjoyed the glass covered observation floor ,but when we went up the escalator to the tippy top I’ve never been so scared as I was when the air hit me ! And I had to walk around the building to the down escalator! Scary ! It was so so sad when I saw them fall, we flew out on the Saturday night back to Manchester. So lucky for us we were home before it happened.
I was lucky enough to go to the top of the twin towers too. Tried to book a meal at the windows to the world restaurant but it was closed for refurbishment. I was so disappointed as I’d saved for months to afford it. Never got back before the towers fell. So very sad for all concerned that day. My prayers are still with them.❤
Thank you for sharing the 9/11 memorial museum. My daughter and I had just returned to the U.K., has this happened. I have not been back to New York, I’m enjoying watching your vlogs, they are very informative and fun too watch.
You really got around to a lot of the lower part of Manhattan, but of course it would be easy to spend a whole week just in that area. I I have not been to New York since 9/11, and I can imagine what a profound experience the 9/11 memorial must be. I think it was on the third trip I took to New York that we went up to the top of the World Trade Center, only a few months after it had opened in 1973. Knowing I had been in the building that was destroyed in such a horrific way made the attacks hit home even more than it would have otherwise.
the photo by the bridge is from the movie Once upon a time in America
I remember watching it on the news that day.
Wow awesome vlog I would love to go to New York and
Visitt 9/11 remembrance tower on my bucket list thank you guy's for sharing your journey with us x
Both times ive been was July, very nice. To be honest I like walking the Highline but it wasn,t really as flowery as I thought it would be
We look forward to going again one day in a warmer month
I went to NY when they were just building the one worlds tower and the large hole was still there from the collapse of the buildings would love to see it now
Fantastic vlog 9/11 memorial looks fascinating. I would love to do New York and visit all the places you have been today big Friends and Sex in the City fan so thank you for allowing us on your trips xxx
Manhatten bridge is iconic for the back drop more now for selfies , it was a photographic place back in 80s too but more now dueto selfies
Its called DUMBO (Down Under Manhattan Bridge Overpass)
As soon as I saw the outside of the museum in the vlog, I started crying - remembering that day and watching it all unfold. I had taken the day off work for no particular reason. I just felt like I needed a day off for some reason. Why that particular day, I have no idea. so I saw the whole thing on television. realizing that we were at war at that moment.
You did a good job on the vlog.
thanks x
Great vlog guys 9/11 brought back sad memories my son was still at school it was his birthday came home he'd got eggd and flourerd he was watching TV he thought it was a film so sad I hope we never have to see anything like that again 😊
Good 9/11 overview you two. I was a flight attendant with American Airlines at that time and worked that same BOS-LAX flight many times. I worked it last just 8 months before Sept.11th! I knew 3 of the crew members that died that day. So it was emotional to see the fountain with all the victims names.
Brilliant vlog very touching about the 9/11 museum x
