Nice to meet another young and older couple!!! We're 22 yrs apart I'm 71 and he's 93. We've been together since 1975

[@OutLoudJB]

Love to hear it! Thanks Calvin.

[@grahamscott4018]

Love that,congratulations you guys. Love from Scotland xxx.

[@RobertFleming]

Same. He’s 65 and I’m 32. Literally, the first thing I said: oh, they’re like us!

[@TechMelee]

Amazing! Love is Love!

[@BeaverOwl]

Congrats. Best wishes from Montreal, Canada!

[@grahamscott4018]

Great couple. I’m 42 and feel a little cheated out of life due to cancer from the age of 26. This gives me hope that I might too one day find someone to share my life with. What a great couple 🥰. Love from Scotland xxxx.

[@OutLoudJB]

Thanks for the kind words, Graham. There’s someone out there for you!

[@marcathens2951]

[@ericsteennielsen]

Thank you very much for the travel inspiration. In Florida I have only visited Orlando a couple of times, so I would love to see other places. Looking forward to your next experiences. Happy new year to you both from Denmark 👍😁🎉

You guys should stay at Casa Citron! It’s just outside Wilton Manors, about a 3 minute drive to the main drag. Amazing place!!! 💋

[@andrewmcd7]

How am I only finding this now!? You guys are amazing. Reminds me and my guy and I. 29 and 56. I watched the video with your mom about coming out and almost cried it was so similar to mine. Would love to connect with you guys!

Great video! I am planning my first trip to Fort Lauderdale. I am usually ALWAYS a Key West guy and stay at the Equator there. I am planning on staying at The Grand in Fort Lauderdale. Thanks for all the food tips for Wilton Manors!

[@alexlareine8501]

I'm planning a trip to Wilton Manors with a friend and it will be my first time there too. It's confusing trying to figure out what hotels, etc, are closest to the fun.

[@kechiotta5349]

Thanks for sharing your holidays. It is so creative and fun looking. I'm so happy to see how much fun you had. Those foods though 😤. I'm cooking as I'm watching this and it got double thinking about my own 😂😂. I'm glad to have met your videos, Happy New year to you both and I wish you both a blissful and happy life. 😊💙💙

Back at you, Kechi! Cheers to 2021!

[@ericmartin9569]

My hubby and I will be staying at Fort Lauderdale in May. We're excited because it's our first time there.

[@anthonymastrando9299]

Ditto, my husband is 28 years younger than me. Dated him for 2 years and now married for 5 years. He’s 38 and I’m 65. He calls me his silver fox and I call my bodyguard, lol. We definitely make a sharp couple. We have a condo in FLL, at The Seasons. You MUST try The Casablanca Cafe on A1A and Alhambra. Just across from Sebastian Street Beach- gay beach.

[@williamzavlaris4054]

Was in Wilton Manors at Christmas one year ago pre-Covid after LA to FL Panama Canal cruise and stayed at Ed Lugo's which I would totally book again due to great location, meeting Ed himself who was quite charming and personable and the wonderful treats left in the room nightly. Weather was not great with rain and clouds but temps were warm. I live in Palm Springs and saw more rain in a week than we see in 4 months but that does give the area a beautiful lushness to the landscape we do not get in the desert. I was not impressed by Rosie's but there was a great Greek restaurant to the south on Wilton Manors Blvd. near city hall that was outstanding. But the most memorable place was a bar with a simple name which of course I can't recall at the moment located right in the center of the action on the west side of the street which was incredibly beautiful with one of the best back patios I have ever seen anywhere. My traveling companion owns a bar in San Diego, 'The Loft", and that place really gave him ideas on how to significantly upgrade. Also memorable was the veteran bartender there who really knew what he was doing and made interesting and unusual drinks and was totally entertaining in his own right. Thanks for taking us along on your trip. Can't wait until the vaccines kick in and we can comfortably resume travel. Have a good time in Key West. Went there years ago in July to learn to SCUBA at Key Largo and while Miami was sweltering, Key West was wonderful with its ocean breezes just like Hawaii. You guys make a great couple so keep making memories and thanks again for taking us along.

[@OutLoudJB]

Thanks William! We love traveling and hope to do more traveling VLOGS in the future

[@javier9119]

Calypso is so much fun... specially if you are single. It does depend on what you are looking for & I have never had a bad time staying there while at Wilton Manors. In fact I have had some epic times there. The owner is very flexible and the staff treat you very well. The nightlife in Wilton is phenomenal as well... no Hunter's, Eagle, Monkey, Gym, The Pub covered on this one. Can't wait to get back to Wilton!

[@mvkimmel257]

Thanks for all the recommendations, I have a place in Fort Lauderdale and have never been to half of these place. Roses is a lot go fun, I always get the fish tacos its awesome.

[@rob9185]

This is the video where I met you guys yesterday. And I it was 'Like' at 1st sight. Every winter I visit Miami, Ft. Lauderdale and Key West. But due to this Covid shit I was not able to travel to the Sunshine State this winter season. I really really really missed it (and still miss it) so I was cruising KZbin to checkout vlogs concerning Miami and Ft. Lauderdale. I bumped into your recent Ft. Lauderdale vlog and looooooved it 😍 Love the presentation. Love the positive vibe. Love looking at you guys. Enjoyed it from beginning to end and at that point I was sold to Jonathan Lucero McKinney's channel on KZbin 🤗 You totally ROCK 🤙🏽🤟🏽👍🏽👌🏽👊🏽 Take care and stay healthy 🍉🍇🥝 #jonathanandbrian 💕💯

[@kev14609]

Heading to Fort Lauderdale @ the end of April and staying at Pillars hotel & club (non gay) for one night then at the 🍍 Pineapple point resort.and then at the Hilton on Fort Lauderdale Beach due to lack of availability at Pineapple. I cannot believe the plant omg! I have stayed at the Grand resort as well and loved it, but that's prior to changing hands of ownership Not sure how it is now, I'm sure it's still great . I heard Cabanas is also a good place to stay. 🥂 Cheers!!

[@Steve-ys7kv]

Your review of the Calypso Inn is fair. I have stayed there a lot, because of it's great location. They owners have made improvements, but last year one of them had health issues so things may of fell through the cracks. I have met a lot of great people there, which is easy due to it's small size. You mention RI, SE MA here. Love your channel!

[@jbalseq4859]

Ad to that the flood we had a month before they came to Florida. I am actually surprised that most places are opened in the area.

[@ericsparks6276]

Not everybody can be the Pinapple or Worthington 😢 Glad to see others trying so we have more options!

[@wesgrooms941]

I’ve enjoyed staying at the Royal Palms several times in Ft. Lauderdale.

[@tjlemaster]

You guys should check out Cabanas guesthouse next time you go down to WM!

[@OutLoudJB]

We went there last time we were there!! It was awesome, loved the pool and the seats along the water inlet

[@pppexplorer]

Re-watching this video as I'm visiting Wilton Manors this week. For some reason, I thought Rosie's Bar & Grill was owned by Rosie O'Donnell. 😀 I went there for lunch today.

[@OutLoudJB]

Lol 🤣 Hope you enjoyed it!

[@pppexplorer]

@@OutLoudJB I did, thanks!

[@conanthegreat4767]

Wow looks so cute and interesting and BEAUTIFUL! I have to include it in my top next goals! When I travel I always take my travel playlist with me, new bands like *DELTA PAROLE* are a must, what travel playlists do you fellow travelers love and listen to? Hope to get me some *cute bois*

[@danmcleod1360]

The plants you found are part of the design.

[@MrDbhouston]

I’d love to see you guys at The Worthington.

[@CarlTippins]

I'm from Florida (Tampa), but have relatives all over south Florida and I spent A LOT of time in the Fort Lauderdale/Wilton Manors area. A friend of mine works at The Grand. I really like it, but I prefer (at least) a clothing optional pool. The place I stayed at the most closed down. I have stayed at several of the places that Brian mentioned. One of my favorites it The Cabanas Guesthouse & Spa on NE 26th St. in Wilton Manors. Not walking distance to "central" Wilton Manors, but not far either. The thing I like most is they have 2 pools. The larger pool can get a little busy, but the smaller pool is great. I usually get a room close to the smaller pool. Check out their webpage if you go down to FTL again. I had a trip planned down there and was going to stay at The Big Coconut Guesthouse, but a hurricane cancelled those plans. :( The Worthington/Alcazar used to be rather bath house-ish, but has calmed down a bit. Mainly because they let anybody and everybody in during the day....it's as crowded as Disney!! If I want to be crowded and hassled, I'll stay home.

[@OutLoudJB]

Thanks for the input, Carl! We did love The Grand, although we also thought it was odd there wasn’t clothing optional by the pool. Cabanas is a place we’ve been meaning to check out - maybe that’s our next stop! Thanks again😁

[@alexlareine8501]

i was thinking about booking at Cabana's Guest House, but didn't realize it wasnt in the center of the of Wilton Manors.

[@WinCKI170]

You guys come stopby here in FL Winter Haven one day plsssss🥰🙏🤍💙

[@MrTsnead]

Just subscribed to your channel. Great video!

[@froggythewaiter]

We've stayed at both Island Sands Inn and Fantasy Island Inn in Wilton Manors and loved both. Fantasy Island Inn is our prefered location though.

[@OutLoudJB]

I haven’t heard of either of those!

[@froggythewaiter]

@@OutLoudJB we prefer Fantasy Island since it's clothing optional and has king size beds. The shared "kitchen" with complimentary snacks is also a big plus. Island Sands it very lovely as well and quite relaxing. It's a more classic B&B with daily breakfast served to your room. Both are on the same street (around the corner from Calypso) and just a few houses down from Wilton Drive. Can't recommend either enough.

[@alexlareine8501]

[@billligon4005]

We love to travel but my hubby being 97 has trouble getting around, so we do cruises, but I would still like to get a plane and go places, and he says just go have fun (I can't have fun traveling by myself!). A friend wants us to join him in a home sharing a 'Home Exchange' for a whole year in Tuscany, exchanging his home for their home - which I would love, love, love to do. But can't convince hubby to do that says he's too immobile and slow. And he is right I'm afraid and this why you guys have to LIVE, LIVE, LIVE each day. We do and we did, but sadly we can't do as much any more. So we rely on Cruise ships, where he can take his EV scooter. Sometimes hubby does not even get off the ship depending on how steep the gangway is. The stay will help a great deal but he does not want to be a bother. This is sad for both of us. Live guys, Live it up.

[@billligon4005]

BTW: we absolutely love the drive down to Key West and the 7-mile bridge is fantastic, you feel like your at sea you can't seen land for most of the drive.

Thanks for sharing your holiday experiences. The food is nothing like we would have here in the UK, it seems very strange to me! You have a great relationship. I am 54 and my partner of 8 years is 36. I was wondering if there are any stereotypical attitudes you have come across towards the age gap? I know we have. Perhaps a topic of a future video?

[@OutLoudJB]

Love that idea! Thank you Yes we’ve definitely come across a lot of different opinions about our relationship. Some things we’ve heard have been very hurtful and at times it can be difficult not letting it get to me.

[@bluebirdwales]

@@OutLoudJB let me guess... younger partner is in it for the money? The older partner is a predator? We’ve had both of these a few times but as time progresses people begin to see that this is a strong and lasting relationship and such comments are made less often.

[@OutLoudJB]

@@bluebirdwales EXACTLY. With time it affects us less and less, and both of our families support and love our relationship and at the end of the day, those are the only opinions that matter.
