LOST IN LEEDS CASTLE: A Day Full of Challenges!

Once upon a time, two directionally challenged Canadians embarked on a journey from London to Leeds Castle… spoiler alert, we nearly didn’t make it home! From exploring Leeds Castle’s complex history to taking in its stunning grounds, there’s no shortage of entertainment to fill your day! Take it from us, the hedge maze is more challenging for some than others.

What a great, funny video. Glad Kirsty had a nice time!! Thank you Michelle😁

[@ACanadianAbroadMichelle]

I think she had a great time!

[@kirstyholding7592]

& a fun filled day we had! Beautiful views, great company, endless bird encounters & a couple victories… for one of us . Keep the content coming! Love it!

[@ACanadianAbroadMichelle]

Never misses a chance to rub in her wins! LOL Miss you already!

[@chipsthedog1]

Loved the sea gulls and maze experience! But I really wanted to ask did you see any of Leeds Castles black swans? They are usually on the moat but I didn't see any on the video and now I'm worried they might be gone as the most recent KZbin video about them is 5 years old.

Two Bundles of Canadian Lovelyness .Enjoyed your Video .Ladies .Never been to Leeds Castle looks beautiful, But in have Hardwick Hall, Chatsworth House and Bolsover Castle on my Doorsrep .I definitely Recommend Chatsworth House at Christmas, beautiful. If you ever travel North a bit .to Derbyshire.

[@ACanadianAbroadMichelle]

The grounds at Leeds Castle are well worth the visit - stunning! I'll take a look at some of your suggestions - thank you!

[@daneelolivaw602]

You should go back to Kent, not too far from Leeds Castle is Hever Castle, the childhood home of Anne Boleyn, i think its even more beautiful than Leeds Castle, although smaller, you will fall in love with the place.

[@ACanadianAbroadMichelle]

Eeek! This sounds wonderful to me! Thank you for the suggestion.

[@neilgayleard3842]

It's basically in my back garden. Henry 8th spent a lot of time there. Bonfire night is also a big deal at the castle. It's a wedding venue also.

[@adamhathaway5939]

Welcome to Yorkshire 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧 if you are up here you again try a little Village call Holmfirth in May there's a Folk Festival lots of live music and beer or cider

[@stephenbarnard8672]

Thank you ladies not only for a lovely tour of the castle but also for the distant reminder of Summer. xx

[@ACanadianAbroadMichelle]

Distant reminder indeed! I was missing those September days while editing! Glad you enjoyed it - thank you for joining us!

[@chrisfinlay3274]

[@ACanadianAbroadMichelle]

Thank you Chris!

[@JC0023]

You guys are sooo lovely. Brought back sooo many memories! Thankyou

[@ACanadianAbroadMichelle]

So glad you enjoyed the adventure! Thank you for joining us!

[@iankelly5387]

Watched this again. The best KZbin video of 2022, just pipping the Warwick Castle one with your relatives from June. Michelle, you're a natural film maker/editor. Jolly well done! :-)

[@ACanadianAbroadMichelle]

Thank you for your kind words! This episode certainly challenged my editing skills #mazescene! Learning new things every episode - see you in the next one!

[@dazza9326]

Hahahaha, birds and the UK go hand in hand :)

[@ACanadianAbroadMichelle]

I should have warned her lol!

[@TheWrightLifeTravelChannel]

I always think that its funny that Leeds Castle isn't in Leeds! Great video!

[@ACanadianAbroadMichelle]

So did I! I seem to keep finding myself in Kent LOL Glad you enjoyed the episode!

[@grahamsmith9541]

It is in Leeds, just not the Big City one up North.

[@MPlain]

we can make a nice ice maze here at home. and it can be different every year.

[@ACanadianAbroadMichelle]

This sounds very fun!

[@popski3226]

Amazing!!!! I loved the leeds castle ❤ you girls are so funny and show us some very interesting stuff as well’ More please!!! 👍

[@ACanadianAbroadMichelle]

More on the way! Hopefully another castle adventure sooner rather than later... they really are my favourite!

[@CappyMoon369]

I've never watched this channel b4 and hubby and I have had a few bevvies and I laughed hysterically during your maze challenge 🤣 I was imagining it being the last three "wake up call" years of my life and many of my friends and that was us thought bubbling our way thru that maze with you two "as you two" 😂 Oh it was good thank you 😄

[@ACanadianAbroadMichelle]

LOL This made me smile! Happy to have popped into your suggested videos to give you a good laugh!

[@AndyKing1963]

Great video, as per usual

[@ACanadianAbroadMichelle]

Glad you enjoyed it Andy!

[@AndyKing1963]

@@ACanadianAbroadMichelle I enjoy all of videos, they are really well done. Best wishes to you and yours

[@Split10uk]

A bit knackered I hear. England is really rubbing off on you.😃

[@ACanadianAbroadMichelle]

You might be right! Honestly, I don't know how we managed to spend so much time there!

[@geoffclarke8934]

Great video. Must visit Leeds Castle again as my only visit was on Bonfire night about 15 years ago for a late evening fireworks display and it poured with rain unfortunately. Must try the cider. Not a fan of mushy peas though.

[@ACanadianAbroadMichelle]

Kirsty was undecided on the mushy peas situation lol Highly recommend another visit to Leeds Castle!

[@howardscott1556]

That looked great, must pay the castle a visit the next time I'm down that way. If you're looking for a quirky day out in Kent try the Romney Hythe and Dymchurch Railway. It is a miniature steam railway that runs for 13 miles along the Kent coast including across Britain's only desert to the remote settlement of Dungeness. Great fun.

[@ACanadianAbroadMichelle]

I looked-up the RH&DR! Looks like a fun way to spend a day - there's even a Santa Special!

[@iankelly5387]

Really, really, really sad you have stopped posting😪😪😪

[@stephenbarnard8672]

The Kirsty/seagull scene is a pure classic Michelle, a similar day out for me was spending some time on the Isle of Wight which was like stepping back in time, Carisbrooke Castle, scenic walks and glorious weather left a lasting imprint on my memory, I do hope you can plan a visit there one day.

[@ACanadianAbroadMichelle]

The amount of seagull vs. Kirsty footage I have... LOL I've added your suggestions to my list! Looking forward to spring-like weather so I can get back out there exploring!
