I'm French (from the South) but I live three months a year in Sicily, compared to driving on the island I find it rather quiet.

@81STAINLESS 2 күн бұрын

Thanks for watching. Our only experience with Sicily was a cruise stop and a private tour in a new Mercedes, with a handsome, dark-haired driver who drove really, really fast. Driving in France was lovely - well maintained "open" roads and drivers who followed the "rules" (except for Paris!).

I love that - "look ahead, back, we take care of it." Exactly! After a few days, one gets used to driving in Italy. If one followed "the rules" exactly - you would never get anywhere. Plus, we've found Italians to be excellent drivers - they have to be.

@@81STAINLESS Yes, Italians are good drivers... the old-fashioned way! One of the reasons is that many are not insured and therefore an accident can have serious consequences. But above all, they have this temperament to follow their instincts and to be sharp.

I was able to visit Monte Cassino in 2000. It was my pilgrimage on behalf of my late father. He never was able to return and see it whole once more. He never really talked about the time in which he witnessed the destruction of the beautiful building as he called it. He was one of the fortunate ones who did not get injured but his silence on what he went through maybe was an injury of sorts. I found the whole experience very moving and wished he had been with me. I have since learnt that he and many others would not claim the medals his country had awarded him because of the nasty comments made by one in government who should have known better. I hope he does not mind as I have now got them and proudly wear them on Remembrance Sunday for the last 5 years. I remember him and the rest of my family that did survive and one who did not. As time goes on it’s the descendants of these soldiers and civilians who gave the ultimate price for our freedom today. We might not think we have it but we do in so many countries that served. We must remember and honour them each year.

What a beautiful homage to your father. We found Montecassino to be an incredibly beautiful place. I am sorry that he did not get to see it restored. The restoration was very successful; we first couldn't believe the church had been destroyed since it looked so beautiful and peaceful.

We will be in Rome for three days and thinking about going to Monte cassino for one of the days. Do you recommend?

@81STAINLESS Ай бұрын

We stopped at Montecasino on our way from Naples to the Rome airport. We did enjoy Monte Cassino, but it is about two hours from Rome, with not much to see along the way. If this is your first trip to Rome, these four hours of "boring" driving may not be worth it - too much to see in Rome. You may want to visit Ostia Antica, which is near the Rome Fiumicino airport (go to our channels' ITALY playlist for several videos on Ostia) - and of course there are all the other Roman sites and the Vatican, etc. in Rome itself. Probably stay in Rome - and come back to Italy another day to head south to Naples/Venice/Amalfi and stop at Montecasino along the way.

Bucket list item for sure…the truth about this ship is a bit more nuanced, yes the king wanted a two deck gun boat but he absolutely had 0 input on its dimensions or actual design. The museum itself says “There’s no evidence to suggest that Vasa was altered or redesigned apart from it finished state” meaning…it was just a bad design to begin with and the engineers didn’t really understand just how unbalanced it would be …the king was away on a war campaign during MOST of it’s construction and wasn’t present when it was launched so….yeah…NOT the kings fault…the ship was always meant to be more of a propaganda tool over an actual warship (hence the name and the decoration)

@81STAINLESS 3 ай бұрын

Yes, a fascinating story. I read that near the end of construction, some knew the ship had a problem, but no-one wanted to tell the king. I was personally surprised to find that after the investigation of its sinking, no-one was really blamed or punished for what had happened. But - the original "failure" has now given us a magnificent example of a 17th century ship. Thanks for watching.

I love steam trains. I’ve been on the North Yorkshire Moors Railway years ago on a trip to Scotland and England with my grandfather. They used to have a miniature steam train ride in Orillia, Ontario that we used to ride on as kids when we visited our other grandparents. They’ve since replaced it with a diesel. It was still fun when I dragged my girlfriend to ride it last year on a girls’ weekend trip there to see Burton Cummings in concert. My husband and I once thought about buying a miniature steam train and tracks from an auction several years ago and I often dream about how cool it would have been to be able to drive it around my 3 acre country property, but then I know nothing about its care and maintenance so I suppose it was for the best we didn’t attempt to bring it home. In another life, I must have been an engineer. Which is funny because my dad is an electrical engineer and when I was a kid back in the 70’s, I was very disappointed to find out that although he worked for CN, he did not in fact drive a train. And then I was even more disappointed when he didn’t work in the CN Tower in Toronto where we lived either. His father actually did work on building boilers back when he was younger in Stratford where he was born.

It was a beautiful vessel but very sad that so many people died because of one king’s folly. Like the Emperor’s new clothes, nobody wanted to speak the truth and they hoped for the best that fateful day. It could have been worse I suppose. They could have gotten further out, weather could have been rougher and less people would have been saved from the sinking ship.

Much interesting discussion on the internet. I think it was the second row of cannons added per the king's request (to match his enemies' ships) after the ship was already being built.

How interesting. We are just tourists, so are definitely not experts. I think this piece was part of a bench.

It seems that the King of Sweden was no student of history or he wouldn’t have made the same mistakes with his flagship that Henry Vlll of England made when the English heavily modified their pride and joy, The Mary Rose which had made it’s maiden voyage in 1511. At least she had served for 25 years before being substantially rebuilt in 1536, she sailed in this heavier and bulkier form until 1546 when she sank fighting the French in similar unpredictable weather conditions, apparently caught by a huge gust as she was talking sharply with all gun decks open. To this day there is no definitive evidence to explain this incident which must have been world shattering to the nation. Luckily, shipbuilders took mush greater care with such things as centre of gravity and positioning of gravity, shown by the 18th Century British warship HMS Victory now sited at Portsmouth Royal Naval Docks for all and sundry to board and examine.

@81STAINLESS 7 ай бұрын

Reading the history of the Vasa and why she sank is very interesting. There are comments about the king adding an additional row of guns after the ship was almost completed.
