ABOUT US
We’re the Lockwoods. And we’re traveling the world to experience-up close and in person-all the natural wonders and distinct cultures that our kids would otherwise be consuming only through textbooks and TV. We think it’s a better way to learn and we’re working hard to fund this little experiment in the hope that our kids will grow up wiser, kinder, and more grateful for the beauty of our diverse planet and its people.
When I saw Erin running to catch up with the Ostrich feeding... I got a little teary-eyed, because I could feel her joy to catch an important moment in her child's life.. a beautiful mom moment I feel privileged to see. I would have worn gloves for the Ostrich feedin' lol. Colt's first penguin sighting too was awesome. What an adventure life is when you are open to change!
This warms my heart. Thank you for seeing us, and me, in that light. I’m glad you understood the joy I have for the kids happiness. They say a mother can only be as happy as her saddest child, and that’s very true 😊

Wow! Cape Town is absolutely beautiful! Makes us want to go there. But it really felt like we were there with you guys. Miss you all so much besties!!! Super happy you all got to experience this!
Miss you tons, besties! ❤️🫶😘
I love your kids’ reactions seeing those animals. Colt is smart, he’s able to distinguish between the male and female animals. Maybe he will be a Vet someday
They loved the animals! It was a dream come true day for Colt 🥰
Colt must have been in animal heaven! Makes us happy just seeing him so excited!!!!☺️
He was! He felt like it was the best day ever 🤗
I could surely feel the excitement of the kids. The Penguins are so cute, I would never feed an Ostrich from my hand. This series is so informative. Thanks for sharing. 😊
So happy you liked it!! The best part was the kids excitement all day. Colt’s face over the penguins 🟰 priceless
Africa Is Beautiful Thanks For Sharing….. Power on Beautiful Family 👍👍👍👍👌🙌✌️🙏🤗💕
So beautiful!! 🤩
SACER RANCER LlGTHEAR LR5ER Toy Story Stermed live on 19 New 2023,10:00 AM sure you
wow that looks such an adventure, Glad you guys had a fun time feeding the Ostrich.
Thanks 😊 the whole day was so much fun!
I love family holidays. Planning on with my family to Capetown. This is inspiring
What a great example you both are to your kids. Lovely lovely family ❤
Aww thank you so so much 🫶
South Africa has been on bucket list since 2014.
When you guys get back to Manila, you need to try the birria tacos from Onlypans Taqueria in Makati.
It’s been my (Erin’s) number one bucket list trip. Zero regrets. It was incredible. We’ll keep our eyes out for those tacos 😊
So glad you get to visit our beautiful mother city ... she never is incredibly beautiful. Pity you didn't have the chance to venture north of Cape Town ❤
So beautiful 🥰 We do have the chance to visit Winelands and that was pretty spectacular. That episode will be after our Cape Town food and culture vlog that’s next.
Guys you should go to Manila Zoo, and Manila Ocean Park. I’m sure the kids will love it!
Maybe we will get to one or both of those placessometime soon 👍🏼
I felt fortunate that my country Malaysia is one of only 17 countries which are mega diverse in this world called earth.
Others are Australia, Brazil (of course), china, Colombia, rep of Congo, Ecuador (Galapagos), India , Indonesia, Madagascar , Mexico, Papua New Guinea, Peru , Philippines, South Africa(for sure), USA, Venezuela.
And with the stroke of luck and nature, the peninsula and Borneo became the oldest tropical forest in the world.
Beautiful 🫶 we love Malaysia. We’ve been to many of the countries you listed but we hope to visit them all.
Watching this in chunks, but I was so impressed by the hotel that I went to check on availability for January. And I could get a week for just £20,400! Mega-cripes!
Cape Town? Love it - and if I could do a safari from there, I wouldn't bother with Jo'burg.
Looking forward to the other videos in this series.
The safaris are actually much closer to Johannesburg but there is so much to experience in both areas. Can’t wait to show our Winelands resort, that hotel really blew us away!
Ostrich said: “ I thought the fingers came free with the meal”.
Brooklyn’s hand was a tiny snack for them 😆
The Dassie is a cousin of the Elephant, they also have build in sunglasses to help them spot preparatory birds
This was so much fun too watch! ❤ I loved seeing the penguins i cant imagine seeing them close up! 💕 God bless 🙏🏻
It was the highlight of Colt's trip. He has loved penguins so much since he was really little.
husband just checking in - 7 am in Cebu. Up at 4am to see what's on the pc from the States, walk the
dogs about 5 am. Feeding the Ostriches reminded me of a story my mom told me. In 1946 or 7 my mom
and dad went off on a week vacation with out the kids, I was 3 or 4. Some where close to Yellowstone Park
they stopped and mom saw this just so cute baby bear cub. She wanted to feed it a potato chip, flat hand and
the bear cub bit through one finger. She said his teeth were like little needles.
Wow, you started your day very early ☀️. I bet it’s nice to be back in PH. Your mom is lucky she only had her hand bitten. If the momma bear was nearby it could have been a lot worse.
One destination in my travel to list
You should! Cape Town was beautiful and fascinating
Another energy packed lovely episode. Thanks for sharing the outtakes at the end. I always stay until after the outtakes. :)
Glad you enjoyed it 🫶 We like sharing that side of us. Thanks for sticking around for it!

Colt would fit right in at Australia zoo with the Irwins
I know! I reached out to them once. But I guess it’s about having the right contact there. We would love for Colt to get a behind the scenes experience there.
Erin your shoeeesss!! I love it. I'll ask my friend to check it out for me. She lives in Chicago. I hope she can get something for me. thanks for sharing your Capte Town escapade. What's the feeling when the ostrich almost bite your hands? hahaha. Colt is not really scared of any animals, isn't he?

We LOVE LOVE these shoes. I actually have really wide feet and have a hard time wearing any closed toe shoe for more than a few hours. But Allbirds feel like socks, I can wear them all day. I hope you get a pair 👍🏻
@@AlwaysBeChangingsweet!
This is so cool
We loved it! 🤗🤗🤗
A penguin couple landed on the coast and one turned to the other and said "Honey, I don't think we're in Chile." The other one replied "I don't care, it's your fault for not asking for directions. We swam this far, I'm not going back!" And that's how the penguins ended up in Africa. LOL
😅😂🤣😆exactly 😝
NO, RATHER LEAVE THE NARRATIVE TO US THAN YOU 😊
😂
😂😂😂
The Southern Point of Africa is in Cape Agulhas, where Indian Ocean meets Atlantic Ocean about 3 hours drive from Cape Town. Visit Atlantic Dunes for Quad-Biking, and Table Mountain
👍🏻👍🏻
Your family is amazing 🤩🤩🤩
You are so kind 🤗❤️🫶
Was that in Boulder city where xou saw the penguins? Your vlog brought many smiles on my face as I was reliving my experience on some of your destinations. I was there in 2017. Are you also going to the Palace of the Lost city? Check it out. Sure you will love it. Enjoy!
So happy our episode made you smile 🤗 we loved this day! Yes, that might be Boulder City because it was called Boulder Beach. We haven’t heard of that. Sounds so interesting!
Cool ❤
Glad you liked it!
The earth was once one land called pangea. Then it broke up due to tectonic plates movements.
Africa was together with South America. The proof can be found in animals example in Namibia and South Africa.
India went north to create Himalaya range by colliding with the Asian plate
Australia broke away from Antarctica. Antarctica was green and lush once. Australia too. But the early humans burned Australia up. So not much is growing there in the middle.
Sometimes it is not the animals migrating but the earth split them apart.
You can see that split in Africa now which is breaking up again at the fault lines.
Geography and history is endlessly fascinating.
Also...if you take a drive up Van Ryns Pass(+- 4 hours out of Cape Town) you can see evidence of the break /rift that was left behind due to that historical event . It's crazy beautiful and many tourists make the trip for the view . There's also an exact same effect in South America. So many of my Geology friends geek out about the privilege of seeing it ❤
Are you doing the garden route while in Cape Town? It's insanely beautiful.
We are not. The next episode is a food and cultural tour and then we head off to the Winelands (amazing!) and then Safaris. There is just so much to do in Cape Town 🫶
@@akhonazasembo3016 it overlaps both provinces ,the largest part is in the western cape (south western cape area)
@@akhonazasembo3016 😆 🤣 😂
@@waynetheron8942 😂😂I've annexed parts of the southern cape
Shout out my friend 😍 love from philippines

Let’s goooooooo!
I'm japanese listener of you. I hope you'll come to Okinawa which has beautiful scenery of sea in Japan! You can play marine activity too!
We would love to go to Okinawa and hope we can. We can’t wait to go back to Japan!
I always enjoy your videos but I wish C had obeyed the rules on the sign that you panned to...the one that said no touching.
I mean he was already warned by their guide and the extra signage, but I guess the luxury tourist entitlement trumps the rules. Maybe a good teaching moment don’t you think?
Please do
Garden Route ...u won't regret it, that's heaven on earth❤
Sounds awesome! 🤩
@AlwaysBeChanging definitely do garden route not in the city of cape town but still under western cape. It's heavenly indeed
# 2 climbing to the light house is similar in steps to climbing up the hill to see the chocolate
hills in Bohol PH. Not sure I can take so many steps anymore. Where is the escalator ?
No escalator but at least we had the cable car to take us up the mountain.
Curious, Im a nervous flyer as well! Whats your routine to deal with this considering most of your flights are sooo long and you fly soooo much?
Great question. I rely a lot on Phil, he knows so much about flying and airplanes he’ll usually explain to me why everything is fine. But when I fly without him I look around the plane at the other passengers when I get nervous. I observe that they are all fine and if something was wrong more people would be nervous. But I’m usually the only nervous one. I also peak at the flight crew and notice that they don’t seem to indicate anything is wrong.
# 3 ok what are the colors on Colts finger nails ? Got to be a reason in there some where. Always finds
a lizard no matter where he is. 🤗
There is. He wanted Madagascar colors but the green is a lime green like his geckos 🦎😊
I am from south africa get some vellies
Yes!
Just had to look up what a vellie is. Cute shoes 😊
Contact company tuor
Please be responsible..warn tourists about the dangers if u don't pay extra for the protection..that would help the numbers of tourists dying from going up if u ignore those stats and lie about the safety of this country to people who don't know any better
You might need to fill us in a bit. We had heard that the city could be dangerous, but so are most in the US. That's just life in a big city. Anything specific we all should know?
YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ostrich and Penguins!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The part when Brooklyn was bitten by that Ostrich and Colt being pecked by the Penguin is an experience they will never forget.
I mean, I was rammed by a Dolphin back in 2017. I will never forget that experience (painful as it was).
This is one of my favorite videos from one of my favorite youtube families (you know who the other family is......I saw them in BGC recently looking for a carpet).
I can't wait for the "Big 5" Episode.
A dolphin 😱 how could you forget that. Such a cool story and memory I imagine 😊
@@AlwaysBeChanging Yes. It happened when my friends and I visited the Tanon Strait. This is the body of water that separates the Islands of Cebu and Negros.
We saw a pod of Dolphins in a shallow area and approached them. I saw a baby one and tried to get close to it to touch it. The Mother Dolphin didn't like what I was doing so it rammed me in the chest. It was not hard but it was really painful. This reminded me that these magnificent creatures are at home in there turf. They belong in water and were built to live in water. We humans are no match to them when we are in water.
