OMG What a Day in Bruges - Carnival Pride Day #11 of 12
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 13 авг 2024
- We have one of the best port days ever in Bruges on the 11th day of our 12-day Cruise onboard the Carnival Pride out of Dover, England. We wander into the terminal and find out way into town. From there, we find a canal ridge, the best waffle EVER and, of course, a little shopping for Chocolate. Back on the ship, it's 80s night.

Jill, you don't even know how right you are... it might be more 'practical' to go on an organized tour from the Cruise line or even from an independent tour, but to jump on a bus and do your own thing is SO MUCH MORE of an experience.
Oh Jill shedding tears for being in my country, really touches my heart! You both are examples of the saying “All Canadians are always so friendly”.
We love Belgium so much! What a beautiful spot and we will never ever forget that day. The Belgium people were so wonderful and kind. It was an easy place to lose yourself and forget about the world.
"Travel the World people" agree with you Jerry, 100%!!!
Bruges looks beautiful!
Another great video. 👍
We just got back yesterday from a 10 day trip in Ireland 🇮🇪 . Rented a car for 7 days. What a beautiful country!!!
That sounds wonderful. Did you stay at different hotels or branched out from one location?
@@CruisingCanucks We stayed a few nights at different hotels and locations, Dublin, Kilkenny, Killarney, and Galway.
interesting to hear that b2b is different (and easier) in Europe compared to North America.
It was great!! Makes so much more sense
Glad you enjoyed our waffles !
Undoubtably the best EVER!! ❤️
We spent a day in Bruges last summer after our cruise ended in Amsterdam. Took a bus to Bruges from Amsterdam, such a beautiful little city. Loved the swans and flowers everywhere. We had some delicious Belgium waffles, beer and chocolate.
We loved our day there. Many people have told us that we were lucky with the weather that we had while there. It was just the most beautiful spot. 🚣
As a Dutchman seeing the upload I have to congrat you to have eaten real Belgium Fries... the only fries in the world.... with mayo as usual... or peanut sauce... or a combi... or curry sauce. Ketchup is not done.
Drinking wine when strolling is a little odd as well🤣... but very funny to see.
Love to see you enjoying Belgium...cant wait to see Amsterdam...
It was wonderful. We aren’t big beer drinkers so wine it was for us as we strolled through town.
@@CruisingCanucks but then there is chocolate😁... to compensate the beer....
I often have those overwhelming feelings when I'm in Europe. I dont know what it is. Maybe i was a European in my past life ❤. Makes me more determined to live somewhere there even more. Bruges looks like a place to add to my list.Thank you for sharing this beautiful city.
Bruges was one of our favourite spots on this trip. We loved it so much and have such great memories of our day there. We just booked a cruise to return there next year!
@@CruisingCanucks oh excellent! Guess we'll hear about it during one of the Live Sunday's soon.
Brilliant vlog folks. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks 😊
Also, I love Neuhaus chocolate!
Mmmmmm missing that Belgium chocolate!
Jill, you brought tears to my eye, with your sincere emotions of wonder & gratitude your wonderful trip
What a wonderful day we had and all the emotion just poured from us that day. Certainly a highlight of our 35 day adventure.
Bless your hearts. Spent a day iN BRUGGE, the beer capital of Europe and you had 1 Stella !!! But you were having fun so that is all that counts. We were there for a day and
And it was one brewery after another. All good. Love your show. Keep sharing.
Neither one of us enjoy beer - so sadly that part of Belgium was wasted on us. However the chocolate was amazing!
I’m so happy for you both that you got to spend your lifetime dream together. It brought tears to my eyes seeing how grateful you are
When we edited an reviewed this video it brought tears to our eyes a second time! It was so real and special that day.
Fries go with mayonaise. Try the Dutch mayo....i think thats better. Belgium mayo taste a little sour. You loved Brugge. Beautiful weather. Been there twice in winter and spring. Next december we will be there on MSC Virtuosa , Christmas time. Nice to see the appreciation being able to travel. Same here all the time, being able to see parts of the world. Thank you for the video!
Belgium Mayo is much better then the Dutch Mayo, Dutch Mayo is far to sweet. We don’t add sugar to ours and it is just perfect as it is! 🇧🇪
@@tvandereet1469 no way
LOL we didn’t know there was such a debate about mayo!! Here in Canada we debate the type of cheese and gravy to put on fries to create poutine!
@@CruisingCanucks would love to try that one day
So enjoy your videos, with your descriptions and pictures of the very tasty meals, your staterooms, your adventures on & off the ships. You both show your love of travel so well, that one almost feels like they are on the same adventure. Kudos to you from Ontario, Canada.
Thanks so much!! We always said our goal was to help people see what being on a cruise vacation is like.
We are near Sault Ste. Marie in Ontario - where in the province are you?
@@CruisingCanucks I am in Belleville, ON, near Kingston. I recently got back from a cruise to Alaska with HAL. What an amazing experience! Hoping to be back on one of those "dam" ships in Mar/23. Love the cruising vacations. Happy cruising to both!!
We love that area of Ontario. We are happy to hear you had a great time on HAL in Alaska - we are doing that for the first time next summer.
We are also doing a ‘dam’ ship in March of 2023. We are on the Nieuw Amsterdam on March 12 heading to the southern Caribbean for 7 days. Hopefully our paths cross on Spring Break!
I absolutely love that ornament you found! That is my go to travel souvenir. I am loving the chance to follow along on your adventures! Thanks for sharing! 😊
Thank you so much!
Love your Eifel Tower earrings, Jill. What a lovely canal cruise you had. Carnival didn't offer to change you to a quieter room? Did they offer you anything in recompense? Enjoyed this vlog. Makes me want to see Bruges in person.
Stay tuned for the next vlogs this Wednesday and Saturday - we did finally get a change to our cabin situation.
Thanks for watching and Bruges is a must-see if you have a chance.
Can’t wait to watch! Will have to do it a little later.
Bruges is so beautiful! I love the ornament you purchased Jill, what a great keepsake and memento of a wonderful day. Looking forward to your Amsterdam vlog, thanks once again for sharing your adventures with us!
We loved Bruges for sure!! Amsterdam comes out on Wednesday! A similar day to Bruges but a little heavier with an Anne Frank house visit.
Checking up on your vlogs thru replay
Spent a lot of time in Europe in my consulting days. Favorite country was Belgium. People are fantastic, cities are beautiful....and that beer!!! Years later, I still eat my fries with mayo.
Totally agree!
What a picturesque day! Lovely!
Yes it was! A wonderful spot that people must see if they can.
I went on one cruise to New England and the Canadian Maritimes for 10 days. I booked one Titanic excursion in Halifax and me and my friends did our own thing in the other ports. I got to see a lot that way.
I love that you are unscripted cruisers⭐️Bruges is beautiful. I’ve been there twice but not by cruise ship! I will definitely consider going again on a cruise. Thanks for the video…keep on cruising ❤
Thanks . We had a fabulous time in Bruges! Definitely plan on returning there!
The Dutch have mayo on their fries too it's great. They also mix mayo and gravy or mayo and ketchup or all three, when mixing they call it WAR!
Only mayo and peanutsauce and union makes patatje oorlog (war)....
Ketchup is not done....
The mayo Gravy was a hit with Mr. Canuck!
Not sure why a cabin move wasn’t possible, at least for the second leg? Was the ship fully booked?
You’ll see in the upcoming Amsterdam video (and the one next weekend) that we finally get moved.
@@DINMIR1973 yeah you are right I forgot the peanut sauce, which is also amazing! It's been about 30 years since I had it actually in the Netherlands, Thanks.
Beautiful stop!
Yes it was!
Did you not get to the main square in Bruges? It is fabulous! Next time, go to Ghent also. We spent two weeks just in Belgium once. It was wonderful.
We would love to be that long in Belgium and see so much more. Hopefully one day.
I loved my day in Bruges - I took the ship shuttle to the train station, the train to Bruges & a local bus into the central square. I followed Rick Steves instructions
What cruiseline were you with? Out ship shuttle only took us to cruise terminal, not the train station. It looks like the train station 'Zeebrugge-Drop' would be a 20min walk from where our shuttle dropped us off.
@@CruisingCanucks I was on Royal at the time. The shuttle was convenient - going to a church, local shops & the train station where with €€ you could get to Bruges- I did a boat tour - ate chocolates & hung out in the square - the train shuttle back to the ship ran every 90 minutes. Bruges was wonderful ❣️
Awwww - that's interesting. We recently had a family member also cruise there and had the same experience as you (they were on MSC). Carnival's port shuttles did not take us to any of those places - just a small building where we could catch another bus. We like your options on RCL much better.
Hi I’m doing this cruise soon, I have a question about where you brought the Christmas ornament. What was the name of the store. Also, I’m interested in a snow globe, do you know if it’s allowed be to carried back as a carry on.. thanks have enjoyed watching your videos!
There were a number of shops in the town where there could be purchased. Not sure of the name of the snow that we were in.
So if I don’t book Cruise Express, are there other tour buses similar in price to take us round trip to and from the port to Brugge? Thanks in advance.
There is another company that does the same bus route at the cruise terminal. Hopefully Cruise Express doesn't hit any other buses and maybe its not so hot you will melt. A combination of challenges made us think we'd choose other options than Cruise Express - if they were available. The other bus company at Zeebrugge is inside the terminal and Cruise Express is outside.
@@CruisingCanucks thanks so much! Good tips and advice. Looking forward to Brugge and trying the waffles, fries and chocolate. Was the other sauce with the fries the peanut sauce or the curry? I think
Mayo and beef gravy were the toppings for the fries
I had the same question, was looking for transportation, are there Taxi's available at port?
So what was this Cruise called? I've loved your ports!
It was the Carnval Pride 12-day Northern Europe. We looked and they are not offering it in 2023. :( So it might have been a one-time type of cruise.
Hi guys! What is the name of the boat company you used for the canal ride? Thanks!
We aren’t sure of the name but there were multiple places in town where you could walk up and purchase tickets and get on the next boat.
@@CruisingCanucks thanks!
Aunt eater?
Bruges was beautiful. Never in belgium
Our first time was wonderful and a forever moment in our hearts. We hope to return one day
Does carnival have different rules than everybody else about having a bottle of liquor?
In Europe there were no rules - you could bring bottles of liquor on at any Port with Carnival (but not NCL). You still can't buy a bottle at the duty free onboard - they still take that until when you get off the ship.
