We were NOT prepared for this!! MFC does New York City! [EP 79] | Sailing Millennial Falcon

[@briandarling7276]

Glad you guys enjoyed the city. I wish I paid attention to where you were in real time. I would love to have bought you a pint or two. I watch a bunch of live aboard sailing vlogs and the two of you are my favorite.

[@SailingMillennialFalcon]

Ah thanks Brian! we would have loved to meet you. We were sort of kicking ourselves that we didn't think to arrange something whilst we were passing through. We're still getting accustomed to having new friends all over the world! :) perhaps we can catch you on the way back through ☺

[@raspingalmond3059]

Thank you guys for visiting the 911 memorial. It means a lot to us Americans.

[@p-dubya]

So good to see you enjoying NYC. My daughter lived there for over ten years and I loved walking around all day seeing all my favorite sights from movies and such while she was at work. After the years passed, it became like a second home to me with all my visits. I ran into familiar and friendly faces I'd met over the years and just loved the neighborhoods & culture & vibrancy of it all amidst the chaos! She moved back to Nashville 4 years ago and I've loved having her nearby, but I sure miss my frequent visits to the Big Apple! It was wonderful seeing the two of you walking and enjoying the city in spite of the snow! Hope the holidays were happy at home with your families!!

[@jondoh2226]

NYC has changed a lot in a year. Glad you got to see it in full swing.

[@marclyonhardman]

Thank you. The looks on your faces as you walked away from the 9/11 site said exactly what kind of character you have.. Y'all are beautiful!!! Thank you

[@ginakleinejaeger4997]

You guys did a great job with this video of New York City. That’s my hometown and I love it. The music that you paired with your tour of the Statue of Liberty was great! Great work guys👍🏻

[@joshuaguerrero7282]

I remember my trips to New York, it's fun to see you guys visit a place I've been.

[@portfoliofotoz]

Oh, Mate, if you can see to the end of the block, it ain't a heavy snow. Oh, and Khiara is without doubt the "smiliest" person in the world. What a great attitude.

[@trevhedges]

Great episode guys! You never fail to make me giggle!

[@markp194]

laughed your way around New York.... loved watching!

[@amandakent7404]

Another great video. I’ve never been to NYC, but I think I’ll pick a warmer time of year if I do! I watch your videos in the bath, my husband always says it’s the closest I’ll get to sailing, he can’t understand why I’m addicted to following a sailing channel when I get sea sick in a pedalo! Although I’m a mindful of knowledge when it comes to anchors! If you ever find yourselves needing a base for a stopover in Kent then you’re more than welcome to crash with us xx

[@rockysouthflorida1707]

Great NYC VLOG! So glad Miss. K was not hurt or harmed during the filming of this episode! Great idea not to let her ice skate with out the proper padding, helmet, elbow pads, helmet, gloves, tail bone pads and hockey pants! Cheers from USA!

[@rickhalstead8990]

OMG!! If you can use the adjective "Magical" to describe NYC, you two are really optimists to the Nth degree. Perhaps that is why I enjoy the two of you so much. I hope you have a wonderful stay in AUS and your long journey back to the MF goes smoothly. Cheers.

[@dennismacdonald2003]

Love NYC even in snowing living in minus 30 n the ft snow so it funny seeing you two like this

[@peterfrebold]

.... it is all about getting acclimatized and that does not happen in a couple of days .... what I found this year is wind breaker pants over jeans, a world of difference ... we are just warming up after having a couple of weeks in double digit negative, first day where the low is above zero and everything to go along with it ... IE -- dripping and sloppy slush .... have fun in AUZ Adam and Khiara .... never stop dreaming .... have fun be safe, save our oceans ......

[@PaulBKal]

8:17 Khiara’s beautiful blue eyes and the beautiful ceiling

[@corkyboat]

Thanks for your thoughtful comments on 911 memorial. Intelligent and enchanting episode, and I hope you two continue to make your merry way around the world.

[@islandonlinenews]

You guys are so fun♥️

[@daneschuck]

Just love all of your adventures and videos

[@DiZZoLabs]

15:05 Thank You for not recording Adam..You're absolutely right!

[@kaakeith3772]

respect the place, respect the day.

[@sanchiaparker3730]

Ha you guys in the snow is like seeing...a fish out of water haha

[@sailingcitrinesunset4065]

Looks like you had a good time

[@janiceworkman7144]

I appreciate the video of New York! I would love to go there! I really know y’all were COLD!

[@bobbates6642]

You two like swimming underwater , so cool fact the Brookland bridge is where people first really learned about the bends . The workers were going down so deep to make the footings and staying down so long that many died when they came back up. So the engineer looked into it all and worked out that time down under and rate at which the people came back up all were connected to how well they did.

[@barbaralane9825]

Fun to see the city through your eyes. I think we tend to take for granted those things that are in our own backyard. Here’s to continuing the laughter and the journey.

[@akjhome]

You missed the grand opportunity to ice skate in nyc. I have regrets for you. Also, I’ve been a fan since the beginning and you both are having the most fun of anyone. It is a joy to watch. Thank you.

[@clareozcbear2640]

WOW,what a great experience. You guys did a boat trip and nothing broke.haha

[@daneschuck]

Adam you are such a lucky bloke to have such a beautiful and happy a mate

[@michaelrichter8040]

Reminds me of cool runnings.

[@andrewbrooks3905]

So it's been three weeks now - hoping you are back soon. All episodes are great.

[@maryetdave]

We were in New York City 2 years ago, it was fun to visit but busy as h-ll, This time it will be by sailboat when we go done the ICW, it will be fun sailing by the Liberty Statue

[@waldorf2007]

Come to Winnipeg -50 Fahrenheit or as we call it.....Tuesday. Keep warm.

[@SkylinersYeti]

I understand the difference in weather for you. Several years ago we spent Christmas in Portland, SA and New Years eve in Thredbo, NSW. I live in the Central Oregon Cascades. We have just under 20 inches of snow on the ground, snowing at this moment and a toasty 32 degrees F not C. I do enjoy your videos and travels,.

[@barbaralienhard3490]

You're funny with the snow, now you know why we bought a boat and moved SOUTH!!!! We're originally from Pennsylvania, about 00 minutes from NYC, and it's way too cold there!!!! Have a great Christmas in Australia!!!

[@phillipborbon2059]

You guys shouldve came to newton creek between queens and Brooklyn I'm living aboard there. 5 years and counting.

[@cluelocker]

loved the New York footage. I'd like to go there some day.

[@mcd858]

another brilliant episode! thanks!

[@peterbalazsy8263]

Nice NYC visit... you missed going to top of Empire State Bldg or top of the new 1776ft World trade tower. But glad you got all the rest.... :-) I live in Northern New Jersey, just 15miles NW of Manhattan and love taking visitors there too. BTW ... Ive been to visit your neck of the woods a few times too. Hervey Bay, Fraser Isl, .. all over ..like Eurong and Lake Mckenzie) also Brisbane, Surfers Paradise, Sydney area ...( Woolloomooloo) lol ) Great place you've got down there... nice friendly folk too.

[@keebearfull]

Had I known, I think I would have arranged to drive the 2 hr 45 mins down to show you around downtown Chicago for a bit to entertain you two lovely humans whilst you whittled away the minutes of that midwest N. American layover. Great episode! Thanks for the fun. [Yes, I've twice visited NYC as a "tourist" and flown in/out a couple times on my way to London.]

[@cyclomaniac9086]

Amazing.... sailor's make make for hard core travelers and the two of you do it with gusto 'n grit.

[@MikeLoveBuns]

Cold and snow ❄️ in NYC ! Enjoy !!! 😀⛵️😘 Mike from Missouri

[@Gr3mI1n]

NEW ZEALAND! hope you enjoyed the airport! its very... airportie.

[@baronsamdi1800]

Lol yall where in my hood in queens! You guys are cool

[@yeelinli1]

Great video , you two are the naturals , what you see is what you get and its all good, have a great stay back in Oz, oh and a belated HNY

[@SailingMillennialFalcon]

Cheers Howard! thanks for the awesome feedback! and happy belated New years to you too!

[@bobswezey7452]

Hope you two enjoyed our city we do ...

[@webheadusa9377]

I am ecstatic that you motored via New York/Chicago/Auckland/Brisbane without breaking down one time! :¬) Webhead USA

[@christopherbohnyak443]

Wish i would have known you guys were in the city.. would have loved to meet up

[@bobbates6642]

I think it was the damp + cold that made you feel so cold . -1 is a very ultra warm winter day

[@ryanh4889]

Great episode! Felt like I was along for the ride. Hate those early morning wake ups for early flights too.

[@clairephaneuf6437]

Great Filming! :)

[@nordincococ1844]

nice veido Amigo adam toujour courages en Madame être jantes 😍😘💫⛵🎊🎊💐

[@johnnyBeBad1234]

you should come to Canada and feel actual cold weather. New York has it easy. Here it can go from 0c to -30c in a day. Our winters hit -40c and our summers hit 35c. We are used to 75c temperature change from Feb to June. Today it's -16c and that's not bad.

[@stubluesjhb1]

A very good episode. You will have to make vlogs on 'cheap ways to see a city'

[@damianjackson7067]

Oh man, so sorry to see you guys go!! :-(

[@BirdDog.]

Never knew you could walk that bridge and I’m an American. That flight looked killer. I bet you slept for a day when you got home.

[@juans3728]

Did you have fun in the city, what did you guys eat? pretty cold last night after a couple of 50 - 60 degree weather, be safe.

[@earlashton1342]

Nooo!!! You past through Auckland without saying hello.

[@TheRealGraylocke]

Been to NYC a couple of times. City is way too big for my tastes. Come to Indianapolis, Indiana sometime... yes, it's in the middle of flyover country, but I'd meet you at the airport gate and show you around, buy you dinner and drinks, and consider it my honor.

[@SailingMillennialFalcon]

Aw thank you for the offer! If we do head there then we’ll definitely hit you up for a personal tour 😁

[@trongod2000]

I had to write you and tell you something because I know you sometimes think, "Wonder what our viewers think of ....." My wife and I are OVER 70. I've been in every state in the U.S. except Alaska. I've been in every Canadian Province. I've been north of the Arctic Circle and south of the Equator. I was stationed in the Caribbean while in the Navy. I tell you that to help you understand that I know a bit about your travel trials and tribulations. My wife and I have looked at each other just as you did in this video and asked, "What the F! did we do this for?" Remind me. LOL The obvious and easy answer will come to you for the rest of your life. Before you were born, we went to NY for the fourth of July and the 200th anniversary of the U.S. I've been on Times Square for New Years Eve and froze my butt off. And if anyone asked.. I'd tell them it was worth it. ALL great memories and ones you brought back to me today so clearly. It almost brings tears to my eyes with emotion. THANK YOU for sharing. God bless and keep you so that you may continue to share.

[@nonaparker564]

I love your reply and I’m sure that Adam and Khiara will always remember the laughter and happiness in one of the most amazing Cities in the world ..You can be freezing cold but still so happy with life ..

[@Mr.Stacey-L-SCC]

Yeah wet cold can chill a person to the bone and its no fun at all. To your credit you put up with it well! So strange to see you in a cold climate though!

[@clayfarnet970]

Just wondering if you guys visited the High Line while in Manhattan? It’s located in the old meat packing district. The elevated train system was converted into an elevated park. Check it out online. They repurposed it instead of demolishing it. 👍👍👍

[@ianscott3180]

You are right cheap ways to get great harbour views> New York the Statten Island ferry, Hong Kong the Kowloon to Wan Chai ferry. Great views for pennies and no boring commentary, spend the money you save on lunch.

[@ralphholiman7401]

I’ve been in New York in the winter a few times and it is pretty brutal. You have to learn to love the subway system. Give me the Caribbean instead anytime!

[@garyleonard4009]

You guy's are crazy 😂👍🍺

[@M-Swede]

It's been quite a while since we have been in a snowstorm. Not too much snow in Australia or South Florida. 🌧❄️

[@gwoiler]

Jamaica Station, LIRR... Good bagels and pizza on this island!

[@missalexis5931]

Watching from work!! First 😍😍😍

[@annafraley5388]

Those long trips are horrible, to me anyway...😩 Some of my longer ones was Melbourne toTaipei , Lax to Sydney and Buenos Aires to Maastricht Netherlands which was 14.2 hours.

[@stimpsonjcat67]

Hmmmm...NY. My favorite parts were...the subway (mostly figuring it out)...Previtti pizza...Ellis Island.

[@niceguy2171]

You cold frogs need to visit NY in April-May, or Sept-Oct., for a much more suited to you climate. As someone born and raised in North America(north of Canada actually:) that wasn't cold at all, the snow wasn't sticking..the water wasn't all frozen, and after spending a winter in Alaska, that would be t-shirt and shorts weather, lol. We skied up in Canada in the night time at -24C, but I do understand, you just came from the balmy part of the world, and it does take a bit to acclimatize, kind of like me leaving Surfers Paradise in OZ, driving down to Sydney, hoping on a flight to LAX, then another from there to Detroit on Jan. 3nd 2011. 92F (33.3C) and in less than 24 hrs. 8F (-13.3C) snow cold and frozen..and I was still sporting a bit of sunburn from the beach ;) Hope you had lovely weather back home though, and a even better Holiday Season!

[@titustiger27]

it was minus 4F in the Adirondacks two nights ago

[@SVWildHare]

HA, "I grew up in London, Squirrel"

[@cyclomaniac9086]

I caught that too... made me laugh so hard. ...So much fun.

[@1stbump]

Here in Mpls. we call those tree rats!

[@niceguy2171]

It's funny, the Australians who came and stayed w/me when I lived in rural Michigan(USA) always were fascinated by the squirrels, chipmunks, and then the deer, especially we had a fawn that would walk up to you that year.

[@dougintothesunset]

A great snapshot of Times Square before the pandemic hit.

[@Valden23]

@ 5:52 - According to the Jimmy Cornell 'Dictionary of TransOcean Sailing', AOT = Arse over Tit. :-) Sometimes used as 'A-over-T'.

[@ronaldchampagne9744]

Love your vids. But you can have NY. Don't like the cold, that is way I am in Texas. Enj time with family, looking forward to you getting back to your boat. oy your

[@kaakeith3772]

weather today,.. there is light snow.... "do i take the motorcycle today, or the truck? the bike is cheaper to park in downtown toronto, i might need to take a second t shirt"

[@johnjacobson3310]

Great NYC visit!!! Hope you had fun... Have to agree with Adam, Christmas in the Caribbean is wayyyyyyy better! P.S. Why were you whispering at 2 A.M in your hotel room???? That city NEVER sleeps!

[@danbailey1229]

Lived in NEW YORK state for all my life and never been in the city.

[@SailingMillennialFalcon]

Ha, it’s funny how we never seem to be tourists in our own countries! I’m guilty of that too 🙂

[@BirdDog.]

Behind the snow was the cold front.

[@hihi4750]

2 cute kiwi in NY~

[@jjrevelry7913]

Great film as ever! Was the crew on the ferry drinking a beer from a can as you boarded?? 😁

[@englishmaninfrance661]

I also have to admit you have totally changed my perception of NY. I thought it would be WAY busier & grotty

[@hymanocohann2698]

Should have been there in the 70's coal dust and soot covered the buildings and times square was a sewer..

[@pavichapin]

@@hymanocohann2698 Every city in the US was like that in the 70's

[@marclyonhardman]

NYC has definitely changed for the better since the 70s and 80s, I grew up 11 miles from NYC in NJ

[@mikesears2857]

You were in the city try coming to upstate NY more snow and a lot colder. Where did you stay in Queens? My office is there.

[@MrRourk]

2 big bundles of clothes walking :) There are beautiful people in there I think!

[@joshtvg]

Did anyone else catch the "squirrel" - ADHD correlation? ..maybe it's just a Canadian thing? Lol

[@michaelsamuel4159]

Nah, not just a Canadian thing, I caught it as well. It's actually a Pixar, Disney thing. lol

[@johncleveland5348]

I wanted to see how you prepared the boat??? Did you leave it at a buoy or dock??

[@riphaven]

snow? that wasn't snow, that's what we call slow-moving rain. we only count it as snow in the tristate area when it sticks. and never ever buy street vendor hot dogs unless it's in front of a baseball stadium, should have gotten pizza, NYC and jersey got great pizza. safe trip back down under.

[@benwalwyn5449]

15:47 My wife does this cold nose torture to me too - all the while telling me she's just being loving!

[@iainlyall6475]

a balmy -11 C today, going up to -5 tomorrow.

[@davep5788]

It's been around -30 for a week. Hit 0 today, t-shirt weather! 🥶 Edit: In fairness, 0 can feel pretty cold when it's humid as well.

[@SailingMillennialFalcon]

Ooh that’s cold!!! I don’t think I could handle that!! 🥶

[@rogerbradbury7312]

Wow. !!!!

[@cathytodd3996]

Hoooome! x

[@roncanizares9966]

Sitting on my sloop in the Bahamas watching you two in Manhattan was joyous for me. I lived there for 40 years and raised my son there. There is no place like it. It is terrifically wonderful!

[@danieloliver20]

Use your coffee & tea fund to buy some proper long underwear next trip to the big apple, easy for me to say in southern California, haha!

[@bigunone]

Did you go back to Australia and stay?

[@gidge34]

How did you not propose marriage to her in the snowfall in Times Square it was perfect😜

[@mammacatta]

Oh, come on. /nothern Sweden

[@matthewbaynham6286]

When the video started to skip a frame or two and the image just jumped a little, I hope that was a quality issue with the video and not my computer.
