Hong Kong looks great
Hong Kong is definitely a vibrant and exciting place! We had an amazing time exploring it, and we’re glad you enjoyed seeing it through our lens. Thanks for watching
Welcome to where I i was born! I was waiting for this episode since you left Florida. I'm glad you pointed out all the high rise buildings. They are quite impressive on how they are built. You would think they are affordable since there are so many but the prices are unbelievably expensive. 😢 Your visit to the temple is very different than your typical tourist walks along Tsim Sha Tsui area.
Awesome! Thank you!
Wow! That sail through the harbor was awesome!
I've watched a couple different vloggers from the world cruise, but I definitely think yours is the BEST!! ❤ Thank you for sharing!
Thanks for tagging along and for the incredible compliment!
Nice. I was watching the cruise mapper app when you sailed out of Hong Kong. I thought it was interesting that you took the long way out of the harbor. The other ship docked with you (mein schiff) didn't get that treat.
Hong Kong port authority gave us a special permission to sail through Victoria Harbor at night. It was like having VIP access to one of the most stunning nightscapes you could imagine. The views were absolutely out of this world - literally felt like we were in a movie. It was a unique experience that not every ship gets to have.
Your videos are so entertaining and educational. I really enjoy watching your travels and adventures and I hope one day I can experience the world on a cruise.
Wonderful ... each stop so fascinating!
Many thanks!
We are so enjoying your videos! Thank you so much for taking us along! You both are amazing!
Thanks for watching!
Fabulous!!!!
Thank You!
Awesome trip! Enjoy....

Wow that was so interesting. Thanks again. Zarko, where have you had your favorite beer on your cruise so far?💜💙
My favorite beer is Pilsner Urquell (the original and best pilsner). And is available in the Crown and Castle Pub on the ship. I checked before booking the cruise and that sealed the deal. I hope they do not run out, it will be a major and dramatic thing for me.
Thanks Zarko!
I haven’t seen Pilsner Urquell on the ships. We will be on Serenade in January. I will have to check out the Crown and Castle pub. I never had it and like you Zarko, I love trying new beers.
They used to have trolley buses in Wellington, NZ
Another great video!
Thanks again!
I can’t believe how much Hong Kong has grown since I was last there. I loved walking the markets at night seeing all the crazy types of food. Ducks pressed and hanging up for sale. I’m enjoying all your posts!
It's wild, isn't it? Hong Kong's growth is just on another level.
Thanks for taking us along Hong Kong. We visited there about 25 years ago, and it looks a lot more developed since than!
Another great video! Thanks for sharing.
I’ve been to HK 7 times my favorite place for a holiday .Enjoyed your tour .
I’m thoroughly enjoying your videos and love when a new one pops up in my feed. Your energy levels remain high and you don’t seem to be flagging at all after over a hundred days away already. Keep up the great work and keep enjoying your wonderful journey.
Even after 100+ days on the move, we're still buzzing with excitement. There's just so much to see and do, and that adrenaline rush from discovering new places keeps us going.
Really enjoyed HK. Y'all are a great team. I see y'all communicating with each other to keep shots interesting and the piece moving. Again I am impressed with the audio mix and I notice very few transitions and almost no edits. Seamless start to finish.
In similar fashion to Z, I also enjoy trying a local beer in each port. It makes me smile when he gets one. I think y'all are doing a great job and eagerly await your future endeavors.
This is such an amazing port. Thanks again for sharing
Your videos are really great. This weekend we actually went back and watched ya'all from before the World Cruise. Interesting to find out your weren't life long cruisers. We love the way you approach port days.
🌟🥂🌟
Cheers to that! 🥂✨
Another brilliant video, thank you.
Thanks again!
My oh my! Thanks n a special tx that all of your videos are in real time. You get back to the ship and upload videos and it takes time n effort to do that! It is more fun for the viewer this way n so appreciated! 🎉🧡🦁🧡🎉
Doing our best to keep things as real-time as possible, but we're usually a tiny bit behind - 2-3 days after we've actually visit each port. Each video takes us about 2 to 4 hours of work, but it's totally worth it.We want to show you the world through our eyes, not just tell you about it. Thanks for noticing the effort and for the love.
Loved seeing Hong Kong! What a fascinating place! I loved the narrow trams! I've never seen anything like that before! Thanks so much for another fantastic video! 😃👍💙
Hong Kong's incredible, isn't it? Glad you enjoyed the ride with us! Those narrow trams are something else - totally unique.
those cable lines are unreal, how long was that? I liked the little village on the water!
Great video of Hong Kong. I liked that you went on your own travels and explored. It was so relaxing to see the Buddha.
Thanks so much! We really love venturing out on our own
The streets did not have as much traffic as I expected. I really do like that you go to the out-of-the-way places. It looks like you’re wearing a new blouse navy is one of my great go tos for dressing.
I think that harbor at night has to be the most beautiful skyline in the world. On another video I heard that later you had some rocking and rolling. Thanks for another great video and stay safe
"rocking and rolling" ??? We had to make a sharp turn to avoid a little boat, but honestly, there was no real drama. The ocean was as calm as a lake, super smooth sailing. So, no wild ocean tales this time.
Fabulous! Oh it's changed so much! I was there in 95 and 97 - before the handover. We also went to Lan Tau Island and saw the Buddha, and visited the fishing village but back then there was no cable car - we had to get a ferry, and there were no boat trips - we just walked through the houses on stiils with the ladies all playing Mahjong and the click of the tiles was everywhere. You had a great time to spend there and to be in the center of it on the ship just fabulous! For shopping I went to Stanley Market - really great bargains in a seaside vibe. I'm so enjoying this trip with you - enjoy the sea day!
I was there as a kid in the early 1980s, it's amazing how much things have changed.
@@knottynumbers44 Since the 80s I guess it must be almost unrecognisable - it's changed so much since I was there in the late 90s -
That's incredible to hear about your experiences back in '95 and '97 - what a different world it must have been pre-handover!
We saw men playing Mahjong in the village, we did not record much of the villagers, I felt that camera in their face will be rude and intrusive but we enjoy just walking and seeing how they live. Not many tourist walk the village, all just go for the boat ride.
Thanks for sharing your memories with us.
@@bztravel from memory the walk through the houses felt quite intrusive as there weren't really walkways as such - just routes for them to get in and out so understand not filming. What a fascinating place - great to see it's still there and given it's now a full on tourist destination, i guess they'll let it stay like that to keep the tourists coming - a win for the village I guess -
Great vlog. Would love to hear about the Visa processes for your trip. Please cover🙏
Thanks for the love on the vlog! About the visa processes, it was smoother than we thought it'd be. Royal Caribbean gave us a nudge towards a visa service, but we decided to tackle it on our own. Turns out, most of the places we visited didn't even require a visa, and for the few that did, e-visas were super easy to sort out online. Plus, the crew onboard help folks fill out any necessary forms. As for China, we were set with a 10-year visa from a trip we took a while back. We gotta say, though, we're no visa gurus, and the last thing we'd want is to accidentally mislead anyone with our advice. So, we'll stick to what we know best - sharing our adventures!
Another fascinating video
Thanks again!
Great video. Please tell me if you need to tap with your credit card when exiting the bus. In some countries you need to tap entering and exiting the buses. Thank you.
I am very afraid of heights but the cable car to the Buddha looks interesting …how long does it take to get there by cable?
The ride was about half hour, it is smooth and comfortable.
What a special experience! Did you have to remove your shoes when on temple grounds? I didn’t see anyone barefoot. When I was in Myanmar removing shoes was mandatory on sacred grounds.
About the shoes, no, we didn't have to remove them. . It's interesting how practices vary from one place to another.
@@bztravel we literally walked miles barefoot in Myanmar!
lucky u following
No Hong Kong Disneyland views?......
Ah, Disneyland? Nah, we skipped it. Not really our scene, especially since we're in our 60s and sailing solo without any grandkids. We're all for diving into the real stuff-exploring streets, soaking up local culture, and living the adventure outside those theme park gates. But hey, to each their own, right?
There is only one God. I pray you come to know Him. He loves you! It's not Buddha.
We respect all beliefs and cultures, recognizing that everyone's journey in faith and belief is deeply personal. It’s beautiful to see such expressions of love and concern from various perspectives. Wishing you peace and blessings on your path, as we all navigate this diverse and rich world.
