...And Nobody Knew She Was There - Sailing Uma [Step 189]

[@tztxz80]

If any sailing channel deserves a million subs it's yours.

[@tomwilliams8675]

The drone footage was Oscar winning. Just outstanding! To think how much those would have cost to take in a helicopter. I can't see how you can make a better episode. If there is a KZbin award for excellence this my choice. Love you guys. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@BrookeSeaman]

Could you have ever imagined that one day you would pull into a remote town that is only accessible by boat and helicopter and people would know who you are? THAT is the impact that you have and it's amazing!

[@tiberisland]

you got to love that good old Canadian hospitality, I'm so proud to be a Canadian.

[@CarlMichaelAyotte]

I remember a time when you’d have to watch the Travel Channel or PBS to see documentaries that WEREN’T AS GOOD AS THIS!!!

[@sarahgene8961]

I liked to add f#$k I love a Newfie lmao :)

[@enmodo]

Agreed, and if you wanted to set out and produce 50+ hours of travel adventure like this it would probably cost at least $200k per hour even on a shoestring. They have done an amazing job and it shows.

[@rileybri]

When you are open and dare to go where where no one else travels to you are treated with unique experiences and people and that is the magic of what you two do. Honest unique content I can't help but binge. Thank you for sharing this with us. Next time you are in this area you have to sail down the St Laurence to the Rieshlu River and then Lake Champlain in Vermont NY. Trust me. You will love it.

[@jamesa702]

this place fell out from the pages of Lord of the Rings minus the bad guys. Awesome. Your guide is a magician without doubt. Wow.

[@michaelbogart7658]

I am so glad you guys picked Francois. My mother was born there in 1929. Alice Durnford. I was there twice, once in 1994 and then again in 2013. So beautiful.

[@mariemorrissey9378]

I love, love, love this step! The place and the people! Thank you Kika and Dan for bringing this to us! 👍👍👏👏⛵⚓⛵

[@valentinmatcas9062]

Thank you, Marie, you are so kind!

[@xerxses88]

I've been catching up on your channel and this is by far my favourite episode. So great to immerse yourself in the local culture!

[@bbbart77]

That guide had a lot of energy ,dancing up and down that fjord. Beautiful.

[@billb.6109]

We loved your Drone footage, and that's the first time I saw anyone wear Kika down, she certainly was taking a knee. Now Dan,.......Pitiful!!! :) I hope You two got out of the Pub safely, We couldn't tell if a full moon that night, but we did pray for You!!! :) Seriously, Dan and Kika, we Loved this Step! Safe travels.

[@riverbendtube]

Boy! That title was buried deep! Great episode. One could write quite the novel just from these 16 minutes of superb content. Oh so interesting. The story is already swirling in the old noggin. You guys are so fortunate to have found this quirky beautiful place.

[@karenhaehn5370]

OMG! you were in my home! After 13months of sailing the Western Caribbean and Central America, we closed up Kokopelli in Los Angelas and drove home. We've been exploring Newfoundland for the last 4 weeks!!! So much more to explore and see. YOUre an inspiration!!!! thank you

[@clayfarnet970]

That’s a first, your guide had more energy than Kika. Beautiful town, wonderful people. 👍👍👍

[@valentinmatcas9062]

Indeed, it was the company, very nice!

[@jerryschippasr3147]

I really like that you’re not all about white sand beaches. Adventurous souls. Wise beyond your age!

[@EUC-lid]

My wife and I honeymooned up and down the West coast of NL in a campervan back in '09. It's a remarkable place with breathtaking beauty everywhere, even visible from the roads. Thanks for sharing your adventures.

[@randypederson6271]

Finally someone with as much or more energy as Kika amazing...

[@prankishsquire2663]

"...The seventh old lady was Abigail Turtle, jumped over the pot like a steeplechase hurdle". (Oscar Bawd). Seven old ladies locked in the lavatory, they were there from Sunday to Saturday, nobody knew they were there. Love it. I grew up singing that song.

[@SootHead]

Might as well be on another world. Good to know places like that still exist. Thanks for showing it to us.

[@charlesharper2357]

Here's a recent video that just came up showing the town in winter: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fpzLmaGhrL6sj68

[@SteifWood]

Now we're talking. You're the superb cultural conveyors in a superb landscape with superb locals entertaining us s...ty landlocked crabs.

[@waynestokes9046]

As a Newfoundlander, it is so nice to see an area of the province I haven't had the opportunity to see myself. Even though I sailed past the area twice, delivering sailboats from Boston and North Sydney to Newfoundland. You really got a true taste of what rural Newfoundland is all about. Thank you for making a great video and putting a smile on my face.

[@IsThisAvailable550]

Fabulous, fabulous, fabulous episode. one of my favorite ones to-date. *Don't ever buy a couch, or TV to watch from it* ! You just need internet access to watch *Sailing UMA*

[@kimtaylor6149]

Simply Thanks, one of the family!!

[@SailingJura]

Thank you for visiting such and amazing small piece of Canada which as a proud Canadian I may never see if not for you!!!

[@Mister510]

I've been subbed since Don't Buy A Couch and I have to say, this might be your best episode. It's my favorite and if I could go to anywhere Uma's been I'd pick this place. You captured it's magic perfectly. I can't wait to see where the winds take you next. Thank you for taking us along!

[@thomasnisbett]

Wonderful video... Francois, Newfoundland & Labrador: beautiful people living in a pretty amazing place in a very special Province on the East Coast of Canada.

[@valentinmatcas9062]

Thank you, Thomas!

[@rustymacneil3227]

Been binge watching and this by far is one of my favorite episodes!!! The views and the culture was epic, thank you!!!

[@mikeh720]

“Over hill, over dale, Thorough bush, thorough brier, Over park, over pale, Thorough flood, thorough fire, I do wander everywhere, Swifter than the moon's sphere; And I serve the fairy queen, To dew her orbs upon the green. The cowslips tall her pensioners be: In their gold coats spots you see; Those be rubies, fairy favours, In those freckles live their savours: I must go seek some dewdrops here And hang a pearl in every cowslip's ear. Farewell, thou lob of spirits; I'll be gone: Our queen and all our elves come here anon.” - William Shakespeare, A Midsummer Night's Dream I do believe that Dan and Kika have been aptly guided by an honest Puck.

[@HusbandWifeOutdoorLife]

Kika, you make my palms sweaty climbing onto friar boulder

[@gro9465]

Wonderful episode of your travels. This one brought a small tear to my eye, my Grandmother used to sing this song to me when I was very little. Thank you for reminding me of such dear memories.

[@rickshick8544]

If I could give this about one thousand likes, I'd do so. Some of the ponds up at the summit reminded me of what I see at the top of Cottonwood Pass, in Colorado but your views were so much more beautiful. Thank you, Kika, Dan, and your drone!

[@gbachnik]

Great Video; The drone footage was absolutely amazing and your music was stunning. Just great! Thanks, I think your editing is absolutely outstanding!

[@sailingsjofagel]

Brilliant..!!! Your episodes keep getting better and better..!! I'm binge watching my way through all your Steps and my family are sick of me telling them all about what Dan and Kika have just done..!! I love you guys. Thanks for lifting our spirits..!

[@KL-sr5jv]

Such a magical episode! Thanks so much to take us to Francois!

[@ABeriault]

Canada...Yeah! Lovely

[@ShannonHarper]

So beautiful! Thank you for sharing with us!! ❤️

[@robfraley4210]

W O W ... What a place that is, And, what an Epic Award winning video this is...!!

[@boosuedon]

Your choice of music is always perfect! KUDOS!

[@MonkPetite]

Great video. What a lively fella Francois is. He is like a young puppy full of energy. I assume if there where more characters like him we wouldn’t have wars any where. Thanks for sharing.

[@valentinmatcas9062]

Wow! Yes indeed! And if everybody liked learning, exploring, and sharing their beautiful moments more, we had no ignorance either!

[@matthewgreene1585]

My hometown! Amazing that you found it on your journey! Awesome!

[@SailingUma]

O my gosh, you grew up there? Really? What a small world. It was such a lovely little spot to spend a few day. We just wish we could have spend longer. NFL is definitely on our short list of places we'll sail back to one day.

[@matthewgreene1585]

Sailing Uma Loving your videos! I’m a newbie. They’re all fascinating. Safe sailing,

[@matthewgreene1585]

BTW, just curious, how did you hear about Fransway? I noticed you sailed right from Cape Breton straight to FRA.

[@clairepapadatos1116]

Bloody brilliant, my dears! Must admit, however, that I was really terrified for you when you stood on the summit! ❤👍👌✌🏻

[@lenbertaux1761]

Unforgettable Newfoundland, I’ll always remember the pitcher plants all through the mountains.

[@jodymooney255]

Amazing footage and such a beautiful country.

[@johncorlis8920]

I love this guy he's so adorable and energetic.

[@lifeinmalay4588]

I fall in love in this town! How adorable and how sweet friendly nice people they are!

[@deanparsons9512]

Love the landscape of my home land

[@CapnClark]

My favorite video of yours from my favorite place in the world! Great, fun video of people and landmarks I remember so we’ll! THANKS!!

[@davidc6510]

Absolutely fantastic views on the journey to the top of the Fjord! The steepness of the cliffs on the fjord walls are mesmerizing. The view was breath taking. WOW. Super cool chill village. .... And nobody knew they were there .... what a lot of home town fun! Thanks for sharing Dan & Kika. A great adventure! Cheers!

[@davidabbett7011]

I long for the purity of a day such as this one you are sharing with us in this episode. Thank you ❤️

[@jamesstuart9764]

A great hike! I loved the tarns and the drone shots. Newfies are the friendliest of folk.

[@markaiossa]

Your editing is incredible. It’s become even better than a professionally edited tv series. Truth be told I actually felt nervous seeing you two next to the friar boulder at the top.

[@nickmadaus6335]

"I'm gonna go upstairs and I'm gonna run around that room like a little giddy kid" 😂😂😂😂

[@randyv686]

Just finished watching the rest and WoW! What a hoot, this is excellent!

[@stefanomoretti3664]

what a kind sould to lead you in this portion of remote land ...

[@michaelromer7115]

God, you have to love this step. Such a great contrast compare to most of our lives and people who live in very remote places. Can't say how much I enjoyed this. Kika and Dan, you guys rock!!!

[@MOSSFEEN]

Met them in Southampton boat show (UK) this week Wonderful People So down to earth

[@deanhueter2866]

I feel the fear right in my groin whenever Kika stands or looks over the edge. My granddaughter use to post pictures of herself looking over cliffs and other precarious places while traveling throughout EU back in her college years. Stay safe you two!

[@notwhatiwasraised2b]

Every five years... ...its most days in Newfoundland Thanks for this bit of down home

[@nealeburgess6756]

Beautiful. Like a foretaste of Norway!

[@Yamsandclams]

Newfoundland!!! My sweet home and such a unique and amazing place. So cool to see an area of the province I haven't had the opportunity to see myself! Now I'll have to go there next time I am home. Awesome video you two!

[@geraldroloson9598]

Francois, NF amazing spot and the province is filled with little towns just like this. Enjoyed the views.

[@BigDaddyPapaJ]

I wish I had the energy yalls guide does! Just a bundle of joy!

[@msnpassjan2004]

I am surprised by your guys endurance. I mean, you seem to spend most of your time sitting on a boat, and yet you are cruising right up these mountains, with absolutely no fear of heights, haha, keep cruising on Uma !

[@ShannonHarper]

msnpassjan2004 they’re so fit!! I aspire to be like that

[@cousinjack2841]

Wish I could give it more than one thumbs up. Great vid guys.

[@judebug329]

What beautiful scenery. And your friend guiding you made it fun! Thank you for putting the effort into another great video. You always have fun, interesting, and educational treats for us each week. And what an awesome town/village. Beautiful people.

[@danielgmaynard]

I LOVE your hiking guide. They are fabulous! I'm only a quarter way through the video and I had to comment.... I hope there is more of them!

[@danielgmaynard]

Awww... virtually no conversation. If you still have contact, tell them I'm a fan! LOL

[@bdjm8595]

What a super fun episode!! Newfoundland is such a rugged and beautiful place, thanks for sharing !!!

[@TheRuffusMD]

i never knew there was a place like this in north america .. the photography is wonderful . i mean this little bits thrown in together . it is perfect .

[@SailingUma]

Neither did we. This place blew us away!!

[@SpiritedHumaneering]

You guys and this guy make my heart so happy :)

[@lawrencegleason4666]

Best show so far. Good for you two. You're in good shape! And had a good guide! The quality of this one was outstanding. It really is in a class by itself.

[@phoebesmith5579]

i love everything about this! thanks a million!!

[@ron343]

Beautiful place

[@Hermandbl7]

Oh, how I wish I were there! This was one of your best adventures and I am really pleased you shared it with all of us. Such a treasure of a community in a paradise in a small niche of the world!

[@sadiqmohamed681]

What a beautiful place! I found you on Google Maps, and the surrounding hills look like they have been gone over with a rasp file. Amazing. The drone footage was magnificent.

[@SailingUma]

Thanks! Yeah, the clouds were barely high enough to fly the drone, but not high enough to capture the scaring in the landscape from all the ice grinding over it in the past. From satellite though, you can see it all on a grand scale. It is a truly magnificent spot.

[@deniseterrell2515]

Another fun video! So nice..you sure do meet some awesome people on your journey.

[@AG-on7we]

You guys will notice that a lot of places in NL have French names, but are pronounced completely differently (Francois being an example). The most hilarious one is "Baie D'espoir", which, translated from French, means "Bay of Hope". However, it's pronounced "Bay despair" by Newfoundlanders, which is the complete opposite of what it actually means in French! I could go on and on. Oh, and make sure to visit Gros Morne national park if it's sailable - absolutely gorgeous landscape! I lived in NL for two years and yeah, the scenery is incredible, but it's the people that make it memorable :)

[@tray8820]

What a wonderful place! That talent show was hilarious! Great step 👌❤

[@cfeigel]

Once again, Uma crew left me grinning! BTW: there's a folk song "Nobody Knew She Was There," which is what I thought of when I saw the video title. It's about a woman who basically sacrifices herself to a life of toil and nobody notices. Sad. They left this part out, but I'm pretty sure she bought a couch. ;-)

[@tonys2957]

Love, love NL. Actually have a retirement house there. The people, the shoreline, landscape, history. Can't beat it, for me anyway. Even though it is a piece of rock in the north Atlantic.

[@waynedoeblin6801]

Quite a hike indeed,these little corners of the earth are real winners👍😊

[@fiziwig]

You guys really make me regret ever buying a couch! You have waaaay too much fun.

[@garycolemanml]

sad indeed, I have too many couches...

[@PaulAdamsWatchman]

Those views are so AWESOME!!!!!!

[@luisroebuck4354]

ESPECTACULAR, YOU GUYS ARE HAVING FUN WHILE SHARING TO TO WORD KEEP ON DOING IT THANK YOU

[@jedross6314]

That chopper landing looks like Becki and Chris, other tubers. They uploaded a series "Cold Island" about their chopper trip to Newfoundland - awesome videos.

[@SailingUma]

It actually was!! But neither of us knew it at the time. They even had a shot of our boat in their video. Small world.

[@jedross6314]

@@SailingUma Ha ha, I just had to re-watch their video after I first posted just to see if I could see your boat and sure enough! World does not look so small in your Atlantic crossing i bet, nor a Pacific one! Safe travels for you as I follow along.

[@abelsanchez8804]

Great video and beautiful town! Thanks for sharing!

[@naturesrx8585]

The people in Newfoundland are like no where else. The best way to meet a 'newfie' is pretend you broke down at the side of the road and they will come out of the woods to help you in a blink of an eye. Proud to be a Canuck! You will never forget your experience if you go. The terrain changes throughout the island. Keep educating Uma.

[@captainhml3868]

Natures RX...and to never call them "newfies"
