I love it!! I love your walks and you showing the residential areas and all kinds of random stuff like egg shells and jellyfish on the beach as well as the short house sandwiched between tall buildings 😂. Oh let’s not forget the dogs who didn’t quite like you and the cat who ignored you 🤣🤣🤣. Although you didn’t get to go to your planned destination this place was great too. The beach is amazing- no crowds!!! I can’t imagine walking so far though 🥵. Thanks for showing the food! They always look so yummy. I missed the earlier video before this one, so am going to watch that next!

Ben, your travels, your personality and your zest for life make for great videos!

It turned out to be a fun adventure! I had my doubts at first. You make all your videos interesting and I thank you for that.

We have cruised all over Europe and the Middle East. We always use tours if the port is over an hour away. I use mainly private tours and have never has problems getting around or back.

You have such a great attitude even when things go wrong.

Sorry Ben, but I kind of like it when things don't go smoothly. I love all your videos, but there is an extra layer of entertainment when you have to figure things out or roll with the punches. 😁 Your poor nose...I hope it didn't hurt too much! I'm American and didn't know that about the Ohio flag. Hopefully, that is a question next time I play trivia. I've always wanted to go to Belgium. I had a mental picture of it that doesn't match what I saw in this video. I know this is one small area, but if I'm on a cruise, this is what I'll see, so I think I'll visit Belgium a different way. Thank you for another great video!

I appreciate your attitude about missing the trains. I'm sure it sucked but in the end you got a little more flavor of Belgium. Embrace the suck. 👍🏻

I am currently on this itinerary on the NCL Prima. Couldn't agree more with you. Zeebrugee is a dump. I took the train to Bruges and that was worth the time. Arriving in Geiranger tomorrow.

Hi Ben! I’ve missed you! I’m so glad that I’m finally getting to catch up with your videos! You’re too funny with the mishaps you keep having. Funny for you, lol. I would have been sitting on the side of the road crying😂hey, I do what I do best, you know? God Bless you for keeping a cool head and thinking logically! I can’t wait to watch more excursions❤

Aloha Ben! Thanks for all of your great videos. Aside from your crazy adventure on this video…you are hilarious! I always wanted to do a cruise and being a single person I always thought it wouldn’t be fun. But you always make everything so positive. I guess now I just have to be able to afford to go on one. Any thoughts? Mahalo Nui Loa!!!!

I accepted that the first two ports were a decompressing experiences and I spent it all of the time on the ship. I'd also been to Amsterdam before. I did survive the crazy electric bikes in Amsterdam.

You have such good energy

Some ports are like that .... one of the worst ones was Kiel, Germany. Nothing to do there, the Hop-on-Hop-off bus was ridiculously mundane. And, I almost never get off the ship at Nassau anymore. As far as the ship, I didn't enjoy the Prima that much because I believe it's more of a warm-weather ship. The inside areas aren't sufficient for the number of passengers and on a transatlantic cruise we were all crowded inside due to the weather. I DID love the Indulge Food Hall though ... it was fab!!! I'm not really a buffet fan, but this was a totally new experience.

I'm taking this cruise the opposite direction in a week and a half. Super stoked!

My first trip to Europe was in the 70s to Paris. We had to fly from Toronto to Brussels, Belgium because we couldn't land in Paris because of strikes. Seems like not much has changed.

The tram went past and it had a rammstein advertisement on it, my favorite band 😊

Thanks!

Haha … went to the middle of nowhere in Alaska and found a Chinese restaurant, too. Chinese people go anywhere in search of better fortune for their families.

You should sell PUSH A DOOR TShirts. (Travel with Ben) with your signature . I’ll buy one 👍

it seems pretty peaceful...it's nice that it can function without being crammed to the gills with people...the businesses/economy must be very efficient...i'd worry that without tons of foot traffic everything would go bankrupt

So was that Mario on the Zeeburge sign?

oh mondays they pick a random visitor to hide from 🙂 it's their local humor i guess

I think the 'eggs' are cuttlefish. We would collect from the beach for our birds to sharpen their beaks when l was young.

I would love to join if you have a group cruise for solo

I really feel it for you

really liking these videos! thx!

were there places at the buffet to put your dishes? i saw a video saying that people trying to be nice and picking up after themselves can get crew in big trouble because management will see it and think that the crew are neglecting their duties forcing passengers to pick up the slack....that's why i dump all my food on the floor 😀

Hi Ben I have done the same cruise, but in reverse didn't you receive the $50 off each port on excursions. I know the excurions can be high price on some ports but check them out. Enjoy your trip is great......

I would love to travel with you just to walk around. You're a walking history book.

Belgium has 2 languages, French and Flemish. The port is pronounced Zee bru geh, shame you missed out on Bruges, it is lovely. You had a poor experience in Belgium sadly

Yeah, I would be probably a solo cruiser too😊

I heard the dog behind the window bark : " Hey, Ben !"

I'm a recently moved to Ohio resident - I didn't know the state flag isn't a rectangle! I love how you jump on those transatlantics! Such a good value but doesn't it rot your socks to have to pay single supplements?

It would be great with you as a guide! 😊 Hello from Sweden

Bruges is a very pretty town. Maybe the time in Bruges, even if only 1 hour or two, would have been better than saying the port was a disaster. BTW - was it some kind of holiday?

I was in that Port on the Getaway on a Sat I think it was last month. There was literally no one around. I thought why did the ship stop here. There wasnt time fir a train to Brugge and I would not pay the 25 euros for the bus, So I walked and walked. Finally I saw this woman walking her dog. She did speak English fairly well. She told me there is nothing nearby, and with so little time in port might as well go.back to the ship. That the trains are not dependable much of the times. I did go back to the ship. You saw more of the area than i did.i basically just saw the ugly port. That and the few bldgs that make up the town.. zebrugge did not appeal to me. I wished the ship gave us more time at other ports, and just skipped Zebrugge. I really don't know why cruise ships stop there.

You make everyday fun. 🌞

I think there is a bus every 30 minutes which only takes 16 minutes.

You really shouldn't call women "old ladies." It just not nice!

Think wise move to spend 20€ on bus. You bit insane
