My Cruise to Finland! M/S Silja Symphony Travel Vlog PART 1

[@TruckerCassie]

Thank you for all the lovely comments on this video! :D Also I want to clarify, Erik was sick as in having the flu, he was not sea sick 😛

[@Military-Museum-LP]

Good for you on the cruise. We are working all weekend in Gustavsberg.

[@keisari78]

That is the first time i ever heard that someone would come to finland to see friends🤣🤣

[@stefanallgauer7276]

Einen schönen Trip habt Ihr da gemacht. Vielen Dank fürs Video 😉 Grüßle

[@Dimatical]

Coolt att siljabåtarna med stora promenaden i mitten är konceptet som de stora kryssningsfartygen i Karibien använder idag. Men många av dem byggs ju i Finland också ! =)

[@日本語を勉強します]

Glad you enjoy Finland

[@billleap4658]

Thanks for sharing your journey with us Cassie..enjoyed this very much!

Hello Cassie I went on that ship in1999 with a load of computers from Scotland To Helsinki I was driving a 420 volvo xl globetrotter I am pleased to see the ship still in good order thanks for making this video regards John from England

[@xxxxx2147]

Cassie cruising on ship or cruising in her truck she is always smiling and happy!!!

[@hextatik_sound]

I've been many times on that ship but the one that has stuck in my memory was in 1995. It was the spring when my junior high school ended. In Finland it's common (or at least it was) to go for a cruise with your class after 9th grade. So much nice memories from that trip, even when it's almost 30 years ago.

[@mcg5404]

Great video Cassie, ship looks awesome. Poor Erik hope he felt better

[@TruckerCassie]

Thank you! Sadly, I also got sick after the trip. It was awful 😆

[@craigstrickland1572]

I think a lot of folks would come to YOUR Tedtalk. Glad you enjoyed yourself and had time with your friends! Dancing too!

[@MisterTee2010]

Looks like you had a good time. Too bad your friend Eric was sick. Love and God Bless. 🤗😘💖🙏

[@juusoperttuli]

Helsinki Suomi Finland 🇫🇮 welcome Cassie hope you had good time in Helsinki.

[@日本語を勉強します]

I'm finnish I went to Sweden with symphony and i came home today in the morning

[@mcporter03]

Great trip, I want to go!

[@ASwedishTrucker]

Lovely vlog.

[@mikkolappalainen9225]

you must visit the "party ship" Viking Grace or Glory summertime

[@bjorreb7487]

Been to Helsinki 3 times in the 90's. First time when they said we had to get out of the ship we wasn't in Helsinki we where back in Stockholm. I think we had a little party on the trip. Second time I actually remember it was a mast and some houses there. Third time we got of the ship and went to a coffee shop but no sightseeing because it was minus 17 and a storm.

[@BIGV710]

for traveling on ferries or cruise liners take ginger biscuits or crystalized ginger take that before getting on and also you can get a wrist band for motion sickness my wife uses it all the time

[@TruckerCassie]

Nobody was motion sick on this trip, but thanks for the tip :D

[@janhallgren8926]

wow

[@jayvirraval976]

Enjoy 🎉

[@danyedeline8958]

Hello Cassie, this is a fun and interesting trip 🥰 thank you for this awesome video 💋❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@TruckerCassie]

I'm glad you enjoyed it!! 😃🤗

[@janvandenhurk3251]

Good holiday travel vlog Cassie

[@tjkadar]

From this moment forward, I shall forever refer to a straw as a 'suck-pipe.' 🙂

[@adriancofaru7299]

👏👏👏👍

[@manfredsss6966]

Scandinavia is sooo beautyfull, i hope i can next year driving with my vw bus to sweden,norway and finland,....

[@SuperMika24]

Welcome to Finland Cassie. I live city Tampere Finland 🙂👍🏻🙏🏻🇫🇮

[@andruspuusta4230]

I really do like scandinavian people and all the countries in there! Sweden is so nice country to visit. But You have to take care about immigrants making problems situation not to let them ruin Your lovely country! Scandinavians are talking a very good english but this small touch of accent is also very nice! From Estonia to Sweden and vice versa I have made a tens of times by ship. I have allways enjoyed these! So relaxing! And the Swedish bufee! WOW! All You can eat best food!! Amazing! I am a quite bad sleeper - it is very difficult to get to sleep and I wake up many times normally. On the ships I do sleep as a kid! Ship travel from Estonia to Finland and opposite is normally to short to relax. Years ago when there where Autoexpress and some other fast boats - it was great fun to get over the sea 80km with an half an hour May be I do remember the time wrong but they where damn fast! I do like Sierra Tequila as well. I like it as it is with salt and lemon and nothing else! It is sweet strong drink. Helsinki is definatelly very beatyful! About the roads: is there a change that some other country than Finland has better roads in the world??? And what do I love about scandinavian people - they do not where shoes inside the rooms! Your Finish friends music room is impressive! Best regards from Estonia!

[@JetDom767]

Awesome video Cassie! Silja Symphony was one of the ships and second Silija ship to respond to the Estonia in 1994 when she sank! Lovely ship! Symphony didn't enter service until 1991 as Wartsila the builder went bankrupt. Poor Eric.

[@TruckerCassie]

Yeah I recently listened on the video with the recorded calls from that awful day. It was very powerful, and I got shivers when I heard the calls from the captain at Symphony. I guess because it feels so much more "close to home" now when I recently was on this ship. And I agree, the ship is very pretty ✨

[@eduardopfuhl5753]

Jade is a friendly dog.Amazing vídeo.

[@jimpanrooney]

Vilken mysig vlog, synd att Erik var sjuk men kul att ni var runt lite i Finland också och såg riktigt härligt ut med flipper och musikrummet vilken häftig båt också :) får ta och se del 2 sen också 😍

[@TruckerCassie]

Ja, det var riktigt najs! Oftast hinner man inte se så mycket mer än hamnen och det som finns i närheten, så det var kul att göra lite "mer" på resan 🤩

[@jimpanrooney]

@@TruckerCassie ja precis kul att ni drog på lite sightseeing och hann så mycket ändå :)

[@TravelerRaccoon]

great hope..yes bravo . Same this for my vid/oos :)

[@bobevansIW]

Brilliant video Cassie 👍. Poor Erik, he looks like he was suffering!!...btw, I wouldn't play air hockey for money if I was you 😉

[@TruckerCassie]

Haha, I used to be good at airhockey but not anymore it seems 😂

[@bobevansIW]

@@TruckerCassie Oh dear! Same here, I used to be good at a lot of things.....but not anymore 🙄😂. Take care

[@mnblkjh6757]

That should have room service to make the bed/change sheets

[@paulofrancisco565]

👏👏👌👌👍👍

[@Alexandros.Mograine]

The best ferry experience is Helsinki-Tallinn by far. its way crazier, more finns go to Estonia on ferries than Sweden. Estonia is actually the #1 travel destination for finns. theres more night life and drunk people etc. :D its fun.

[@عليحسين-ظ8ل1ب]

The most beautiful of spreading my cup of love, greetings from Iraq 🤍

[@xolexotic2335]

You should try Viking Line's M/S Gabriella, it's a really good cruise ferry

[@TruckerCassie]

I don't think I've been on that one! I'll see if I'll make a trip with her some time :D

[@who-gives-a-toss_Bear]

2:50 Just like the shops in town. You pay to GO shopping. This has to be the best business model charging people to go shopping. Would be like having a toll on the main street shopping strip. No accounting for what folk will pay for.

[@formatique_arschloch]

It's also a floating hotel. But yes, the business model is genious.

[@日本語を勉強します]

Everytime I go to stockholm with silja line i always go to ICA the store and back to the ship But when I go with viking line I always end up going further more into the city, i don't know what it is haha

[@johnfellows2867]

That inky black sea would totally freak me out ( Titanic type of thoughts !! )

[@TruckerCassie]

I had those thought too when we stepped out there 😬 It feels so much safer when it's daylight outside, haha

[@johnfellows2867]

Erik looked dreadful, hope he was checked for Covid !! Hope you were OK after catching the same illness, stay fit and healthy dear Cassie ! XX

[@mcporter03]

I saw you at a fungo stand, they are made just northe of me like 30 minutes

[@pamelakilponen3682]

The prices for things are so high now that many from Finland are traveling to Sweden to buy things as they do in Tallinn Estonia. But Latvia is the best price for alcohol. Many take their cars to Tallinn on the ferry and then drive to the border in Latvia and stock up for the year.

[@formatique_arschloch]

At least the problem users.

[@Enarmad]

Vad är det med finnar och låten "Sommaren är kort" ?? Såg finska Battle Beast på Skogsröjet i somras, och dom klämde in "Sommaren är kort", komplett med allsång, mitt i setet... 😅

[@TruckerCassie]

Hahaha jadu 😆

[@andruspuusta4230]

Cassie has very beautiful smile!

[@TruckerCassie]

Thank you so much! 😊

[@jonselhayani7005]

[@55garren]

Skepp ohoj ❤

[@Mersuharrastaja]

Those Silja Serenade and Silja Symphony are quit old, but TallinkSilja need to keep, because those type boat with promenade are not allowed anymore bild. And there is spesific atmosphere in those ship.

[@TruckerCassie]

Ohh I didn't know that! Do you not why they're not allowed to be built anymore? It truly had a special atmosphere 🤩

[@Mersuharrastaja]

@@TruckerCassie because those promenade are bad when boat is fire. Long promenade fire can proceed very fast from other side to. otherside. It is me difficult to explain in english because i do not speak it very well as I'm finnish

[@TruckerCassie]

@@Mersuharrastaja Ah I understand! Interesting info. And yeah it makes sense it could be a fire hazard :(

[@formatique_arschloch]

​@@MersuharrastajaInteresting, as promenades are built all time on Royal Carribbean ships etc. Actually Silja Serenade and Symphony were the inspiration for building promenades to the worlds largest cruise ships, most of them built in Finland. As you know😊

[@araujofrancisco13]

😊😊😊😊😊😊

[@punkkerboyzz]

had to take a second look because that's the exact mcdonalds i normally go to x3

[@TruckerCassie]

Ooh neat! :D I liked how the menu had Swedish as an option, but it wasn't really perfect haha

[@antonlivingstone]

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉

[@michaelarlen660]

Jag var på samma skepp för ungefär 12år sedan. Jag åkte från Stockholm till Helsingfors, och sedan så till Tallinn Estland. Finns det fortfarande stardust natt Klubb på topp våningen?

[@TruckerCassie]

Jajemen 😃

[@blechtic]

Who did you leave on the shore to film the ship as it goes by?

[@TruckerCassie]

Some outside footage is actually stock footage :D And some are filmed by me on another time

[@davidfitnesstech]

Looks like a great time. Beautiful boat. "Suck- pipe" :-D I'm going to start saying that.

[@mishademyan]

Best cruiz😊😂😅🎉

[@SPPhotography89]

Its Baltic sea. holy grandmama, that McD is so near :) moomin train is medical centre commercial.

[@TruckerCassie]

Ooh I didn't know that. Cool :D

[@hillerscania4x4]

Looks like you had a good time. 👍 I am wondering how many hours the ship takes from stockholm to helsinki? Is the ship traveling every week between the two city’s? Stay save!

[@pen7759]

daily, and it takes about 23hrs one side.

[@peterhowells7309]

Greetings from Scotland! That was a very impressive ship! What always impressed me most about Scandinavia is that everything is super clean! As it should be, not like the UK! Yeah, you gotta watch those skinny "suck pipes" with a thick milkshake, they can cause brain damage from making you suck too hard! 😂😂 I'll never think of a drinking straw as a straw ever again - it will be a suck pipe from now on! 😂😂

[@almooalyalmooaly1082]

so nice from iraq

[@jahidulislam-uf4hs]

How r u? Nice tour Like u😍😍😍love u😍😍😍 Bangladesh

[@k.l.7788]

Pina colada = Käärijä 💚🇫🇮

[@Greggspies]

Can you get the stinky canned fish in Finland, everyone is eating them as a challenge in the UK

[@TruckerCassie]

Haha I don't know actually! I have never tried it myself even 😆

[@butterflies655]

It is a swedish thing. I think you mean surströmming.

[@mcporter03]

Are all the shops tax free? They say “Rutldolf the red nose reindeer flys around Finland, maybe he is up north with Santa 🎅

[@esalehtismaki]

We'll get thicker suck pipes for you 🙂

[@TriforceOfCourage97]

"Friend"? so your saying there is a chance lol

[@harrykoma2316]

give that man a few boxes of ipren cause daum he looks sick

[@TruckerCassie]

It took him a good while to recover from his flu 😥 Terrible timing, with the cruise trip, haha

[@Tugger4me1]

My daughter does not take avocado well either - don't know what it is but gives her a bad tummy. Now that pitch black outside would scare the hell out of me knowing I was on the water. You guys English puts me to shame - as a nation in the UK we are dismal at speaking another language, I try my best at Spanish but just 2 or 4 weeks a year are not enough as you get older.

[@rscossu69]

Toi jäbä ei kyllä osaa suomea lainkaan :D

[@alexanderyaants8304]

Cassie come to me in Siberia, I'll show you the wild!)
