    This looks like a lovely cruise port. Fascinating to learn it’s connection to embarkation for D-day, wow. Weymouth looks so lovely with all of the boats in the harbor. Oh no about the Black Death! 😢 nice to see the boats passing under the bridge. Wow, a Tudor building!! I wish we had buildings this old and as historic. The music while you were boarding is so nice!! What a lovely spot. Thanks for bringing us along 😊

      It was a very surprising place as it’s not somewhere I had been before and now I wish I had.
      The old buildings were so nice to see, yes probably not too many from that era in Canada 🇨🇦
      I was so amazed to have that brass band there, just a fantastic experience. Many thanks for watching ☺️

    Awesome place!!!
    The bus ride had some beautiful views!!!
    The town looks so peaceful!
    I've always been intrigued by towns that are right by the narrow waterways like that!
    Excellent tour, my Friend and the cannon was the topper! Lol
    Hope all is well!!!
    😁🤙👊

      It’s a very picturesque place, much nicer than I expected. The cannon was so amazing, never experienced that before.

    neat excursion through the historic harbor. a relaxing time to stroll around, catch a drink and watch the boats sail through the waters ⛵️ love the welcoming brass band and canon firing as you sailed off. thanks for sharing ✨

      Sometimes a day on land from a cruise can be very busy, but that wasn’t this tine.
      Such a nice place to chill out and yes, the brass and cannons was amazing. I didn’t expect either of those happening. Many thanks for watching.

    I love Weymouth so much! That first shot took me right back to my childhood holidays! I remember there was a walkthrough called timewalk with these cats back in the day where that construction is now I think. Thanks so much for sharing it was so lovely to see Weymouth again! 💙✨

    • @ALifeintheParks
      @ALifeintheParks  10 месяцев назад +1

      Wow, that’s so amazing. I wish I knew that you’d been there before as somehow we completely missed the beach 😂😂
      I thought the whole harbour area was so pretty we just sat and had a few beers.

    Agreed, England is beautiful when the sun is out. I have had very good luck and have almost always had excellent weather there. The town is very picturesque and looks like a nice town to take walk. You have some bad luck on your cruises with things that are closed! Loved the send off.

    • @ALifeintheParks
      @ALifeintheParks  10 месяцев назад +1

      I so wish we had decent weather but it is what it is.
      This was such a beautiful place, far better than I expected. I’m a curse for closed attractions but what can I do 😂😂
      Many thanks for watching!

    Wow! I'm really enjoying this beautiful Drive! Look at that blue water! 💙
    Great tip on booking excursions yourself & saving money!
    Love seeing the boats pass underneath the bridge.
    I'm loving "Hope Square!" I'd like to spend a day there! Reminds me of St. Augustine Florida which is a little over an hour from us😊 How nice to be greeted by a Band while getting back on the Ship! Canon fore too? Wow!

    • @ALifeintheParks
      @ALifeintheParks  10 месяцев назад +1

      It was such a revelation as I wasn’t expecting much. The harbour was just so beautiful.
      That’s a very good point, St Augustine is very similar and just as nice.
      I wasn’t expecting either of those things but it really made my day. Many thanks for watching and commenting.

    Cool that the ships port here now. The top of Portland is the best, with its views of Chesil Beach. I loved the vibe of Weymouth when we visited a few years ago. Love that a brass band saw you on your way!! Then the gun salute wow!!!

    • @ALifeintheParks
      @ALifeintheParks  10 месяцев назад +2

      With cruise stops you can only get a flavour of a place but Weymouth isn’t that far away and I’d love to check out the beach.
      Many thanks for watching!

      Many thanks, it was great to spend some time in an area with so much history.
      I wasn’t expecting that at all but it was a classy move. Many thanks for watching ☺️

    This looks like a lovely harbor town. It was cool to see a number of historic sites along the way. And a brass band played you onto the ship! Very cool. Are you certain they weren't firing a cannon AT your ship as you left? Be careful out there. Thanks for sharing this lovely port excursion!

    • @ALifeintheParks
      @ALifeintheParks  10 месяцев назад +2

      Ha ha, thankfully it was only a gun salute I and they weren’t trying to sink that ship.
      It was such a lovely port, I still can’t believe I’d never been there before 😳😂

    @cruisingwiththe4bs 10 месяцев назад +1

    hey, your videos are full of history!
    Fan of weymouth but as we get free train travel would probably not do a Portland cruise, but that drive up, band and cannon salute was spectacular, reminded me of by gone era of cruising, thanks for sharing.

    • @ALifeintheParks
      @ALifeintheParks  10 месяцев назад +1

      It was such a great place, can’t believe I’ve not been before. This was a bit of a bonus as the trip to Cherbourg was the main reason to get on this wild booze cruise 😂
      Many thanks for watching and commenting, I really appreciate it ☺️

    Isn't it funny you had never visited Weymouth before where as we have but have never visited the harbour! and I must say It looks really nice, will definitely go there next time. Thanks for sharing.

    • @ALifeintheParks
      @ALifeintheParks  10 месяцев назад +2

      I can’t work out why I’d not been before and sadly I didn’t get to the beach so that’s something for next time. Many thanks for watching ☺️

    That's not a ship - it's a floating council estate. Please emit or change your background music. Otherwise, good effort
