FERRY CROSSING VLOG: HOLYHEAD to DUBLIN, STENA LINE: DAILY VLOGS UK

We're on our way to Ireland! We start the day off by getting up very early in the Travelodge at Holyhead. We meet up with our friend and head over to the Holyhead/Caergybi ferry port. It's a Stenalink crossing from Holyhead to Dublin.
Here are some things I bought for my travels this year:
Packing cubes (I already LOVE THEM): amzn.to/3RRt64a
A toiletry bag with lots of sections: www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0B8GD8C2...
A head wrap towel to keep my hair dye off the hotel/BnB towels! amzn.to/3RRlOgI
PayPal Tip Jar: paypal.me/imoandizzy
☕ If you would like to, you can buy me a coffee 😀

Imo is a flautist/flutist (flute player), and these vlogs will often take you behind the scenes of the life of a professional folk musician. Stand by for bits and bobs of live folk music and dance as they pop up in our day-to-day lives.
These videos will not generally feature recorded background music, making them extra suitable for people who aren't keen on pop music!

Stena line is like the best boat I’ve ever been on

[@mariannetuite7411]

Very jealous. Dublin is my absolute favourite place in the world. Have a fantastic time

[@maryjarvis491]

It was so windy on the ferry ,I can just remember going on the ferry across to Ireland to visit my Irish Grandmother and family many years ago .🤗x

[@evancortez2]

Wow! Movies, video games, bars, restaurants, or just hanging out on the deck, you'll never get bored on this ferry!

[@Weasel0539]

Oh lovely. We went as foot passengers on Irish ferries 28 years ago and we didn't have fancy buses pick us up. We did have a mini bus from the port to the town. Looks a very nice ferry inside

[@nickyinavlog]

Enjoyed watching you on the ferry xxx

[@WormsEyeView]

Oh Dr Who circle decor on that ferry wall! And a weeping angel 😇

[@WormsEyeView]

Oh those invisible swingers sound like a blast 😆 🤣

[@karen4you]

That windy cold was identical to ours. Unseasonably warm for our winter but blustery cold winds. That's a grand ferry so glad that you explore. Imagine those others going outside as you went back inside. Lots of container shipping like that at ports. The work diesel truck that moves trailers here was called a shag tractor if I remember from our trucking days.

[@david_1948]

First. Wahoo. That looked like a calm crossing. Enjoy your trip to Ireland. Safe travels.

[@PlanetImo]

Thanks 👍

[@adventureswithangelaandwayne]

Loved seeing this as this is a trip we definitely want to do and travel round on the wild Atlantic Way. Thanks for showing us the ferry crossing as we have only ever done the France one. What an amazing ferry cinema and lots more

[@PlanetImo]

Oh cool! I hope you have a fab time. :)

[@RetiredLovingIt]

Quite a nice ferry! Have fun! Don’t get blown away 😂

[@ItStartsWithAStep]

Aw haven’t done this crossing since i was a kid :) so many times going to ireland with my nan :D breakfast looks tasty :) i can never sleep before travels im too full of beans! cute little cinema on board

[@marjoriejohnston3038]

☘👋😊 Welcome to Ireland.

[@David.M.]

Those are cheeky friends that you have! Double entendres galore! The ferry is quite posh. With your hair dyed red, I initially thought you were of Irish descent. I look forward to tomorrow. Thanks

[@Andrea-md9pe]

You do the best travel blogs I've never been to Dublin looking forward to your next vlog 👍💖🌸

[@PlanetImo]

Thanks so much 😊

[@CJ-bs7zl]

Eeeek how exciting!!!

[@juliepearson1685]

Oh Dublin I would love to go there!

[@WormsEyeView]

Nope.... that WAS your finest vlogging moment. Gave me a real giggle 😃

[@PlanetImo]

😁 ha ha ha ha!

[@rhysmorgan8946]

Have to admit, those sort of crossings are the best, I usually go on Fishguard to Rosslare Stena Line 🙂

[@linnsoltwedel]

Invisible swingers made me laugh hard :D

[@PlanetImo]

😆

[@linnsoltwedel]

Thats totally me! I stress so hard when I need to sleep "fast" to not be a slug the next day, I always turn in too the slug :P

[@PlanetImo]

Same!!

[@bridiewright1519]

Stena Europe fishguard is currently in Liverpool for repair following a fire and we are booked on it! Maybe transferred to this boat as we need dog cabin x

[@donnysweekendvanlifetravel7854]

Got to have a Guinness in Dublin imo looked like a smooth crossing donny xx

[@WormsEyeView]

Bless you 😆

[@welshmanjasonpatrick8607]

[@msjacksshipsadventures8382]

Fantastic video I stayed in the same hotel as you and I went onboard this ship you went on it’s the future

[@PlanetImo]

Aw glad you like it. Tonight’s one is a ferry vlog too, Jack. We get to see inside a deluxe cabin! It was amazing!!

[@msjacksshipsadventures8382]

@@PlanetImo That sounds nice

[@jameslavery3060]

North Wales Police took me to a side room.. when I undertook my Dublin day trip 😂

[@KPP365]

We did this a few months ago. The ferry is extremely well kitted out for your crossing.

[@Shootness]

What identification they check to go ireland

[@unowhotravelchannel]

Early starts are always a drag and horrible, we know the feeling! A weeping Angel on board? And you still didn't jump ship? A bit of G-force on deck!😆 Wow, a road toll as soon as you arrive? Crikey, didn't know Ireland had any road tolls...

[@PlanetImo]

Apparently it does!

[@tyreesetjjoyner1995]

Good video

[@PlanetImo]

😊 thanks

[@Victoria2cupsadayVlogger]

It's so cool how much they can carry on a ferry, only been on one but I did not like it at all lol

[@WormsEyeView]

Oh Imo!! That tanoy announcement warned you to dress warmly if you went out 😆

[@evancortez2]

Careful! Don't get blown overboard!

[@noufasaad9375]

A great tube 👏🏻by the way did they check any ID.

[@PlanetImo]

Thanks! Yes, I'm sure they did.... I can't actually remember and it's strictly forbidden to film security... they must have done though because it's not the UK, it's the republic, and we were coming from the UK. They would have checked our passports, I'm sure. Thanks so much for watching!

[@Anna-xs5ph]

I wanted to have a look out of window and there isn't a lot to sea I sea what you did there

[@WormsEyeView]

What a posh ferry. I've only ever been in a ferry to the Isle of Wight

[@CJ-bs7zl]

I’m off to the Isle of Wight this summer! Dreading *DREADING* catching the car ferry as I’ve never done anything like that before! I hope it’s plain sailing 😂

[@PlanetImo]

Oh it’s fun! We did that just after lockdown. I have some videos of it on my channel.

[@CJ-bs7zl]

@@PlanetImo oooh I’ll take a look 👀

[@CJ-bs7zl]

@@PlanetImo I’ve just had a look - thank you so much. I’m one of those people who like to prepare myself beforehand because I’m so anxious and I worry. Looking forward to our holiday x

[@tawheedkhurshid8497]

Does it matter what car you take to crossover? I have a diesel 2008. I won’t get any unnecessary charges, right?

[@PlanetImo]

Oh! That's a good question. I don't know and I don't drive so it's not the sort of thing I tend to know about. Hopefully someone else will spot your question and answer it for you. Thanks for watching :)

[@joshuajeffrey1843]

Hi you do a great job how long does it take u to edit a viedo is your hair black/blue

[@PlanetImo]

Thanks Joshua. This one took about three and a half hours to edit. I think my hair is black/blue.

it wont kill you to say hello i dont bit lol

[@PlanetImo]

👋 Hello. Sorry - I don't always manage to respond to all my comments. I'm as bad on my own personal Facebook account and DM's if it's any consolation. There are just too many to manage. Thanks so much for watching.

[@jamesandrews3147]

Hopefully you got home safe and well lemo

[@linnsoltwedel]

Does someone have a cabin for that short of a trip? Or is the ferry used one some longer hauls perhaps ?

[@PlanetImo]

Sometimes they do, for getting a nap or a shower.

[@linnsoltwedel]

@@PlanetImo how long was the trip?

[@johankoelman2996]

I have travelled this ship as a truckdriver. Mostly daily and used the cabin to take a shower. Besides a cabin there is a large truckersrestaurant on deck 8, love the trip.

[@juliaproom6746]

Is your friend invisible too? 😅

[@PlanetImo]

They were happy to be in the vlog a bit later on when I asked them :) I was delighted as you can well imagine! So many people don't want to be on camera. There's a lot of self-consciousness out there.

[@juliaproom6746]

@@PlanetImo Ooh! I’ll have to keep watching to see them. I’m binge watching your trip and loving it, I feel like I’m on holiday with you. 😀

[@PlanetImo]

Aw fab. That's my aim so I feel all affirmed now! Ha ha! Thanks, Julia. x

[@TheThriftyGma]

I find if I need to set an alarm, I don't sleep too good, always waking up to check the clock. ha. When you were in Dublin, is that considered part of the UK?. or is known as Europe? What is Wales considered? I find it all a little confusing. Nice that you have another couple to explore around with. Enjoy!!

[@PlanetImo]

Dublin is not part of the uk. It’s the Republic of Ireland. It’s Southern Ireland. Northern Ireland, however is part of the UK. The UK left the European Union so now Southern Ireland remains in the European Union and Northern Ireland doesn’t. X

[@rebeccacorser-wallace9885]

[@andrealaforgia7699]

Funny how Brits say "It's Europe!" when they land to another European country, like the UK is not in Europe. You are no longer in the EU, but you are still in Europe!!
