Thank you so much for your kind words! It's wonderful to hear that you enjoyed seeing Grand Manan from our perspective. Islands have a unique charm and often evolve over time, so it's interesting to know that there have been changes. We appreciate your invitation to revisit, and if we have the chance to come back, we'd love to experience more of the island's beauty and connect with the local community, including pointing you out! 😊🏝️

That "sea pigeon" reminded me so much of a penguin. Lol Such an idyllic place to explore, and you guys always find such beauty in everything you do

Gentlemen. I love your videos. I'm originally from Cape Breton. My experience with restaurants is eat where the locals eat. This worked well for me when travelling through Greece and Mexico. That way you can avoid the tourist traps. Keep producing videos. Be safe!

That sounds like a fantastic journey! Do you have any favorite spots or activities on Grand Manan Island that you enjoy during your visits? 😊🌊

11:36 Those steep cliffs are beautiful!!! They formed with the enormous “flood basalt” that underlies most of the Bay of Fundy, and which erupted 201 million years ago. As they slowly cooled from the bottom up, they split in to tall vertical columns.

Awesome vid. Love the humorous touches. And I love that the liquor store is once again keeping Schooner in stock! Last time I went in 2015, they told us you had to pre-order it in advance. (Though now I believe the Independent Grocer has the liquor license, so hopefully they'll keep the Schooner on hand for when I get up there this coming July!) Grand Manan is my favorite place in the world (I'm a life-long summer visitor whose family owns one of the cottages at Whale Cove Cottages in North Head). Hope you guys will go back someday and get some footage of Whale Cove Beach, Hole in the Wall, and Stanley Beach!

Thank you so much for your positive feedback! We're thrilled that you enjoyed the video and found the humorous touches entertaining. It's great to hear that Schooner is back in stock at the liquor store and that you're looking forward to enjoying it during your upcoming trip in July. The convenience of finding it at the Independent Grocer will surely make your visit even more enjoyable. Your deep connection to Grand Manan is truly heartwarming. Having a family cottage at Whale Cove Cottages in North Head sounds like a dream come true. We'll definitely keep your suggestions in mind for our future visits. Exploring Whale Cove Beach, Hole in the Wall, and Stanley Beach would be an incredible experience, and if we have the opportunity to go back, we'll make sure to capture those stunning locations on camera. Thank you again for sharing your thoughts and memories, and we hope you have an amazing time during your July trip to Grand Manan!

Thankyou
