      You will sail from Red Hook in Brooklyn , Not from Manhattan. QM2 stopped crossing from Manhattan in 2006. But the views are still great. Enjoy the crossing.

      You're not small time in this business, you're brilliant, down to earth, informative and lovely people, who actually answer questions to people who aren't strictly patrions and give answers to all. Unlike some other "more subscribers" cruise tubers 👍🏼 love you guys

    13. Rachel Smith on

      Finally joined Youtube just now and subscribed to you guys. Looking forward to your coming Mega Birthday trip. Hope you feel better soon Paul for your celebrations. 🥂🥂

      There are a number of NY ferry routes that cross from borough to borough for $4. They are great fun and on some of them you can buy drinks! Nice and rocky.

      Hi Paul and Carole, loved watching ,looking forward to this trip you’re both doing , I’ll be waiting in anticipation !😊😂❤

    17. Joan Freestone on

      Thanks for bringing back memories of my dear Nan. She always called her hat a "titfer." What you said is certainly true about doing what you can while you can. My best friend passed away when only in her early 60s and she always said "You're here for a good time, not a long time". Enjoy your transatlantic.

    18. Jennifer Fuchs on

      Hi Paul and Carole! I can't catch you live, my darn job interferes with the timing. Just saw that you'll be in NYC next week, so will I! Going with my daughter for my birthday. How awesome it would be to run into you. Not too likely but a girl can hope. 🤞 Have a great time!

    20. ChrisLaura Vaughn on

      First, you'd combust trying to reach my house. We're normally running 37 – 40 C here in Sacramento in August.

      Second, not going to be able to forget your birthday. It's our wedding anniversary.

    25. Valerie Dutson on

      Have a great time we were in New York at Xmas great city but very expensive now we went to see a show and 60 dollars for two wines 😮 . Happy Birthday and have a fab cruise 🎉

      Following on from the question about trips in the Med, Pisa (from Livorno) is really easy provided you are prepared to take a train. The station in Livorno is 5 mins from the port (by Taxi) and Pisa is less than an hour away and trains run frequently. From Civitevecchia the journey is about 2:30 hours each way so probably a bit more challenging due to the amount of time available during a port stay.

    27. Travel_Day_Dreams on

      Everyone recommends Empire State Building, for good reason, but if you have the time the top of the Rockafeller Centre (Top of the Rock) is really nice and also a trip to the World Trade Center tower to their observation deck & memorial garden is also well worth a visit. We love NYC, hope you have enough time there to do everything you want to do.

      Hi both 👋 I’ve just caught up as I couldn’t make the live stream. I don’t often comment on YouTube but I just wanted to let you know I thoroughly enjoy your vlogs, so informative and you guys are so funny. Hubby and I are new to cruising, did our first one in May (Iona to Norway-loved it) and we’re already booked for Arvia to the Med in 2024 and recently booked Alaska in 2025, also on HAL Koningsdam! Can’t wait to see your Canada and Alaska vlogs. Keep up the good work and I hope you both have a fabulous time in NYC. We went for 7 days in 2019 and it was awesome. If you fancy something a bit different we went out of the city for a day on the train from Grand Central to Beacon, it was fab and a nice change from the busy-ness of the city. Enjoy! ❤

    30. Debra Brookes on

      Great show last night, like the titfers😂.If you need any more ideas for New York, I follow "The Lodge Guys".They went to NY earlier this year.Vlogs are in their playlists section.,enjoy your trip.

    31. Renato Bernardin on

      A very enjoyable blog. I watched on catch up. Enjoy your QM2 transatlantic! I prefer West to East too because I love to relax on the way home after 3/4 nights of madness of NYC… and you can do your laundry too! I am doing a repositioning on Norwegian Getaway in April 2024 from NYC to Southampton and plan to spend 3 (mad) days and nights in NYC. My planned cruise ticks loads of boxes .. a cruise, travelling on a new cruise line for me (Norwegian), a weekend away in NYC, stopovers to Dublin, and Belfast ( I never been to Ireland) and a visit to Amsterdam/Zeebrugge/Lehavre. (noticed Jake Carmen in your LIVE comments is doing the same trip). Enjoy your transatlantic!!! Looking forward to your blog on that.

    32. Sailing Fal Cornwall on

      Thanks for another entertaining live. You’ll certainly have an amazing time in NY and a fabulous trans Atlantic trip on the QM2. You can’t beat creating memories together ❤x

    37. Nancy A. on

      I highly recommend eating at Jacobs Pickles in NYC. It's located on the Upper West Side. NYC is amazing. Also sign up for a guided tour of the 9/11 museum. It's totally worth it. I've been several times and learn something new each time from a tour guide.

    38. Cheri Furr on

      Hope you have a fabulous trip and a great reunion with your old colleague (Carole!). I’m safe, but taken an alternate different route from Oslo to Flam today for the bus ride here to avoid flooded and closed roads! Stunning scenery and stops along the way. Paulie, I DO feel sorry for you—hope you feel better and have a very happy birthday! Love the hat. Staying here two nights, then railroad to Bergen for two nights, and then 5 days on Hurtigrutin to Finland. Voted for you—best of luck on the awards!
