I live in Yarmouth, Nova Scotia and I want to thank you for giving some time on your video about this town. I was born here, adopted at birth, taken out of the country and moved back here in 09. Most of the videos I've watched about Nova Scotia made by travelers barely mention Yarmouth other than taking the ferry in or out of here. Cape Forchu gets mentioned even less. The part where you had Rappie Pie was interesting. I'm one of those who won't eat it. LOL I can't handle the texture. Opps. Sorry. lol Thanks for the great video of our beautiful province.

I believe the reason the Church Point church was closed (even though it was normal hours) is because it is in need of a lot of repairs. Unfortunately the amount of repairs are too costly and it is likely going to be torn down. I grew up 20 mins from there, its very sad, and it wont be the same once it is gone. It was so cool to see it from up top with the drone footage!! Tallest wooden building in North America. Also so pleased you liked the rappie pie, thats our "turkey dinner" at every holiday or family gathering that is the meal!

I loved the energy and passion of your video and it’s extremely informative! I am definitely a new subscriber. I was raised on Cape Breton Island. I live on the opposite coast in Victoria BC we are a military family. I have had the privilege of working for the Nova Scotia Department of Tourism, in the Portland Maine office, many moons ago. Your content is better then most tourism videos, it make you want to go visit the area, thank you!! Your video is filled with beautiful historic landmarks and wonderful local businesses. I am very impressed with the extent of knowledge of events both historical and recent. I am very touch by the details you included in your video on the fire of St. John's Anglican Church in 2001. I can’t wait to see your video of my island my home Cape Breton, as well as your other videos. I am sorry I had not seen your channel till now. Better late then never, happy travels❤️

Crossing the sea over to Dublin took 3 hours. As we approached the ferry the Tour Director played the theme from "Love Boat". It was hilarious. It was the same on the return back to Wales.

You do such an amazing job describing these places - it just makes me want to jump on that ferry and pop on over. Question - why did the RV have to be driven onto the ferry backwards and the passenger cars went on frontwards? Do the passenger cars turn at the end of the ferry and come out the same direction as the RVs are pointed in? Hope you’re all well and wishing you safe travels. Enjoy!

WOW, that is a massive catamaran ferry! I found info on the Express 5, looks like it is ALSO built by Austal (builder of the CAT ferry), so I'm sure it will be a fantastic ride in 2023. - Howard www.bornholmslinjen.dk/express-5
