Fortress of Louisbourg National Historic Site
Enjoy the sights and sounds of Louisbourg National Historic Site, North Americas largest 18th century historic reconstruction. Admire the spectacular setting of this fortress and an impressive view from the harbour. Join visitors as they cross a bridge and enter the world of historic Louisbourg. Stroll along the cobblestone streets with costumed interpreters as they go about their daily activities. Watch soldiers in period costumes march in unison and fire their muskets. Peek inside the historic houses, inns and other buildings and get a taste of what you can see and do at Louisbourg today, including bread baking, basket-making and cooking. At the blacksmith shop, watch a blacksmith at work and feel the heat of the red-hot fire. Enjoy the sound of traditional music throughout much of this video.
Originally built by the French on modern-day Cape Breton Island in Nova Scotia, the Fortress of Louisbourg was the capital of Île Royale (Cape Breton Island), a thriving seaport with one of the busiest harbours in North America and one of France's key centres of trade and military strength in the New World. It was captured by British and New England colonial forces twice; it was destroyed the second time. In the 1940s, it was reconstructed so that today visitors can experience this exceptional fortified town.

Yorkshire and the Humber, England, United Kingdom, Europe
Yorkshire and the Humber is one of nine official regions of England at the first level of NUTS for statistical purposes. When the Government Office Regions were created in 1994 it was called Yorkshire & Humberside with the counties of North Yorkshire, South Yorkshire, West Yorkshire and Humberside. However Humberside was abolished hence the current Region name. The population in 2011 was 5,284,000. The British Government has announced its intention to abolish Government Offices (for the Regions) no later than 31 March 2011. There are seven cities in Yorkshire and the Humber: Bradford, Kingston upon Hull, Leeds, Ripon, Sheffield, Wakefield and York. There are many other large towns in the area such as Doncaster, Grimsby, Halifax, Huddersfield and Scunthorpe. Leeds is the largest settlement being the largest part of an urban area with a population of 1.5 million. Leeds is now one of the largest financial centres in the United Kingdom. Sheffield is the second largest settlement and is a large manufacturing centre. Bradford is the third largest city and was traditionally a textile city, the decline of these industries has left Bradford's economy more diverse. Kingston upon Hull is the main port in the region and also a notable fishing harbour. While cities such as Bradford, Leeds and Sheffield grew during the industrial revolution, there are older cities in the region such as Wakefield and York. The tallest occupied building in Yorkshire is Bridgewater Place in central Leeds, commonly referred to as The Dalek, and at 361 feet is the 34th tallest building in the UK, built in 2007. The 37 storey Sky Plaza in Leeds is the world's second tallest student accommodation building at 338 feet, and the second tallest building in the region, and the UK's 42nd tallest building, built in 2009. The 32-storey St Pauls Tower is now the tallest building in Sheffield at 331 feet. The Royal Hallamshire Hospital is the tallest hospital in the UK outside of London at 249 feet, and was built in 1979. Stainless steel was invented in 1913 by Harry Brearley of Sheffield, working for Firth Brown Steels (now called Sheffield Forgemasters). Crucible steel had been invented in the 1740s by Benjamin Huntsman of Epworth in Lincolnshire (part of the region). he area is well known for its brass bands, with the Brighouse and Rastrick Brass Band, Black Dyke Band, Grimethorpe Colliery Band, Carlton Main Frickley Colliery Band, Rothwell Temperance Band and Hammonds Saltaire Band. Brass bands have mostly been linked with coal mines. The Brontë family are the region's best known authors. The region's most popular city for tourists is York. Castleford is the birthplace of the world famous sculptor Henry Moore. The Yorkshire and Humber Assembly was a partnership of all local authorities in the region and representatives of various economic, social and environmental sectors. The full Assembly normally met three times a year, normally in February, June and October. The full Assembly is responsible for providing regional leadership, agreeing regional strategic priorities, directing the development of the Integrated Regional Framework and endorsing key regional strategies. Membership comprises all 22 local authorities in this region, plus 15 Social, Economic and Environmental partners, and the National Parks for planning purposes. On 31 March 2009, the Assembly was abolished and replaced by Local Government Yorkshire and Humber, which continues to be based in the former Assembly premises in King Street in Wakefield. Yorkshire is one of the two regions (along with the North West) that were expected to have a referendum about the establishment of an elected regional assembly. When the North East region of England rejected having an elected regional assembly in a referendum, the then Deputy Prime Minister John Prescott announced that he would not move orders for other referendums before the relevant provisions expired in June 2005.

ABANDONED BUILDING IN THE WOODS - Scarcroft Mill, Hetchell Wood, Pompocali, Bolton Percy Station
Farrah goes in search of abandoned buildings including an old railway platform and corn mill which lays in ruins! Inspired by watching urban exploration or urbex videos, we look for safe alternatives by visiting nature reserves and listed buildings. First we head to Bolton Percy, a village and civil parish near Selby. We find components from the old railway line and the old station platform. Bolton Percy Station Nature Reserve, is a Yorkshire Wildlife Trust site at YO23 7AW.
Next we head to Hetchell Wood Nature Reserve at Milner Lane , Leeds, West Yorkshire, LS23 6NA. Another Yorkshire Wildlife Trust Site. We visit the climbing rocks / rocky climbing crags and wander through the bardsey beck before finding the remains of Scarcroft Mill built in 1810 but abandoned almost 100 years ago. It is found near the equally mysterious Pompocali Earthworks. Nature has overtaken the old mill stone and wood structure, but it is amazing to look at this intriguing abandoned building. Farrah wonders if people died here or if bones might be buried here! We then find a really creepy old barn / factory building as we wade through the Hetchell Floods after heavy rain in Hetchell Wood during December 2019. #abandonedbuilding #ruins #exploring

NORWEGIAN GEM Docking At HALIFAX Cruise Port l CRUISE VLOG l Ep. 20
It's a new day which means we are in Halifax, Nova Scotia! I was really looking forward to this port and let me tell you, it did not disappoint! Today's shore excursion was around seven hours long and we went to Lunenburg, Mahone Bay, and Peggy's Cove. I booked the tour through Norwegian Cruise Line though most cruise lines offer this tour. It is called: CANADA: CELEBRATE OVER 150 YEARS! and here is the tour description from NCL's website:
“Celebrate the country with a range of pure Canadian experiences that includes visiting early settlements and landmarks and shopping for Canadian delicacies. After departing from the pier, you will settle in for a circuitous, picturesque drive through Halifax, admiring historic sites such as the Halifax Citadel, where the British built a fort and founded the town, and the Province House, Canada’s oldest legislative building. Along the way, you will hear fascinating stories about Halifax’s history, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police and why Nova Scotia sends Boston a spruce tree every Christmas.
Continuing on, you will arrive at another extraordinarily scenic area, Old Town Lunenburg. Established in 1753, it is North America’s best surviving example of a planned British colonial settlement. The original layout and appearance has been retained so faithfully that UNESCO designated Lunenburg a World Heritage site. During free time, you can explore the brightly colored Old Town, which is easy to navigate because the streets follow a rectangular grid pattern designed in Britain. You can expect to see 18th-century wooden buildings and perhaps a replica of the Bluenose, Canada’s legendary racing ship that was launched here in 1921.
Later, in lovely Mahone Bay, you may shop or dine on your own, prior to visiting Acadian Maple. This family-owned business sells all sorts of Canadian delicacies, many made with maple syrup. Before returning to the pier, more free time awaits you in Peggy’s Cove, a quaint fishing community with one of the country’s most photographed lighthouses.”
As always, make sure to watch in HD for the best video quality! Hope you enjoy! :)

Flight from Billy Bishop Island Airport in Toronto
I'm currently travelling around the world for a year with my family of 5 and everywhere we stop, I fly !!
So Like, Share, Subscribe for Aviation related content around the world !
So there is only one flight school it's called Island Air FlightSchool on the CYTZ airport onToronto Island.
They own a few beaten up Cessnas which is really good to put you in the Adventure mood :)
Taking off and landing on this island as been a dream of mine for 10 years. Since I last came in Toronto in fact.
1. Toronto skyline is like one of the most beautiful in the world.
2. Canadian Sunset flights are incredible
3. Flying off the Island of Toronto which is also a park is mindblowing
4. The snake tongue runway 24-26 makes your eyes cross :)
5. You share the space with 10 other flying friends : Helicopter, commercial Bombardier Q400, other GA planes, ...
6. The SightSeeing tour of the city where you buzz 300 feet from the CN Tower and the Rogers Center is spectacular
The video is not stellar because they don't have GoPro holders on the wings. So everything was shot from the inside.
Audio is only music because for our We hope we can make it world tour we packed light and I didn't take all the equipment. Which was a mistake that I'm going to correct for the next videos.

Cutting Through the Crap Towns Nonsense | The Virtues of Yorkshire
A survey by a website (that will remain unnamed) claims six of the 10 worst places to live in England are in Yorkshire. This is clearly nonsense, so I bust the myths about Halifax, Wakefield, Keighley and Huddersfield in this video.
Full blog about this:
The survey describes Halifax as an example of ‘Yorkshire grimness’, but that is easy to dispute. Just look at the town and you can see that’s nonsense., which the author clearly never did. the Piece Hall is a glittering jewel in the crown of Halifax, and is pretty much the polar opposite of ‘grimness’.
It also suggests Halifax has no claims to fame other than being the home of Ed Sheeran and a bank. Once again, not true. Anne Lister of Shibden Hall was a legendary diarist whose amazing life is now depicted in the smash hit Gentleman Jack. Halifax produced Quality Street and After Eights, both of which revolutionised Christmas. Local lad Percy Shaw invented cats’ eyes, making driving more safe. The list goes on.
So there you go. Yorkshire 1-0 Crap Towns Survey.
Just down the road is Huddersfield. According to the site that commissioned the survey, it’s funny that its major tourist attraction is “just a hill”. But that’s like saying the Taj Mahal is “just a big house”, the Eiffel Tower is “just a metal pointy thing” and the pyramids of Giza are “just fancy graves”.
Castle Hill is iconic, with its Victorian Folly that you can climb for an even better view across the Yorkshire countryside. In addition, the town has a real charm to it. There’s an ornate railway station, which is not something you can say about many towns, as well as some beautiful buildings. The statue of Harold Wilson is iconic and there are some great little arcades and cafes to spend time in too.
Yorkshire 2-0 Crap Towns Survey.
Similarly, to discount Keighley’s railway heritage as insignificant shows a lack of understanding of it. The Keighley and Worth Valley Railway shows all that is good about the town. The volunteers that make it a fantastic family day out in Keighley are a credit. Their dedication to providing entertainment whilst preserving heritage is surely a real positive.
Within minutes, you are flying through gorgeous countryside towards the home of those Yorkshire heroes, the Brontes. This isn’t the sort of activity that is available in anywhere that truly is one of the worst places to live in England.
The railway features in a host of TV shows and films, including The Railway Children. Without Keighley, we wouldn’t have the iconic, tear-jerking “Daddy, my Daddy” scene. Think on.
Yorkshire 3-0 Crap Towns Survey.
Wakefield is a “cultural wilderness” according to this crap towns survey. Of course, that is easy to counter. It’s just not true. What kind of cultural wilderness contains the Hepworth Gallery? A whole purpose-built arena for cutting edge art, much coming from one of the UK’s most celebrated sculptors.
Not enough culture? How about the Yorkshire Sculpture Park? By the way, these form two points of the four-pointed Yorkshire Sculpture Triangle – not a typo – see the Bewildered Family Guide to Wakefield for more information.
There is also the Coal Mining Museum, Theatre Royal, Wakefield Cathedral and a whole lot more. More of a cultural deluge than a wilderness, if you ask me.
Yorkshire 4-0 Crap Towns Survey. This is getting embarrassing now.
The report takes a low blow at Rotherham, tediously using the Chuckle Brothers to make a point about how rubbish it thinks the town is. Of course, the truth is that there is far more to Rotherham than this site is willing to admit. Antony on Facebook flew the flag for his town:
There’s also Magna, the science adventure centre, which will definitely feature on a future Bewildered Family Guide to Yorkshire video.
Yorkshire 5-0 Crap Towns Survey. Too easy.
The site gives Doncaster similar treatment, shaming it my making fun of a previous occupant. In Donny’s case it is Thomas Crapper. Rather than acknowledge this example of the fine engineering tradition in the town and a man who revolutionised life for billions of people across the world with the flushing lavatory, they use it to make some base toilet jokes.
And that sums up this whole sorry survey. Ignoring real, genuine reasons for civic pride in order to bring somewhere down. It’s snide. Pure and simple.
Yorkshire 6-0 Crap Towns Survey. The away fans are streaming for the exits, hoping to avoid the traffic.
For more Yorkshire fun, watch the videos in my Bewildered Family Guide to Yorkshire playlist and visit the website and social accounts.

How No Swimmers Noticed Toddler Drowning At Crowded Water Park Wave Pool
A heroic, eagle-eyed lifeguard came to the rescue of a 3-year-old swimmer that was drowning - and no one around the child even noticed what was happening. At Whirlin' Waters Adventure Park, a wave pool in North Charleston, South Carolina, a little girl was struggling and a lifeguard sprung to action. In a video of the rescue, people were swimming next to the girl, but don't appear to notice what's happening to her.

GDPR - lawyer reveals latest changes that will affect property industry
Estate Agent Today reported The General Data Protection Regulation legislation coming into effect in the UK on May 25 has undergone some subtle changes which will affect the property sector according to one of the industry’s leading law firms.
After years of preparation and debate, the General Data Protection Regulation was approved on 14 April 2016 and will replace the 1998 Data Protection Act.
The new regulations mean that businesses will not be able to process personal data without the explicit consent of the data subject. There will also be a limit as to how long businesses can keep data for and a string of obligations attached to keeping people’s data, such as the right to be forgotten.
The aim of the new regulations is to put the ownership of personal information back into the hand of the consumer.
Halifax and Nationwide price indices slammed as out of date by rival
House price indices provided each month by Halifax and the Nationwide have been branded as “misguiding” and “out of date” in an attack by rival analyst, Doug Shepherd, director of Home.co.uk which produces its own index, based on asking prices.
In the attack on Halifax and Nationwide - which compile indices based on mortgage approvals and other ‘historic’ measures - Shepherd says his own index is based on contemporary asking prices, are far more accurate and useful, similar to Rightmove’s.
Rents set to rise as lettings stock not keeping pace with demand - RICS
Tenant demand edged up in the three months to January, according to the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors, but landlord instructions have fallen back - suggesting rent rises are on the way.
According to Landlord Today, The latest Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors’ market snapshot shows a significant imbalance between demand and supply.
An exception to the rule is London, where RICS says most surveyors responding to its research suggested rents were still dipping.
Increase in Interest Rates to cost Coventry Home Owners £206.33 a Year.
Coventry homeowners will be among those affected by the latest rise in the Bank of England interest rates. The first increase in 10 years; they have just been raised from 0.25 percent to 0.5 per cent. This uplift comes as inflation hits a 51-month high of 2.9 per cent whilst the national unemployment rate is at an all-time low of 4.3 per cent.
Interestingly, the Governor of the Bank of England has indicated that the interest rate is likely to increase again over the next couple of years, but Mr Carney said mortgages and savings would not be affected in the short term. However, look at all the big banks and just about all of them have increased their standard variable mortgage rate. This means that the average monthly mortgage payment for those home owners on variable rate mortgages will see the cost rise by an extra £206.33 per year.

Day Kayak Trip to McNabs Island
• • • (CLICK SUBSCRIBE FOR MORE VIDEOS!) • • •
Kayaked to McNabs Island from Fishermen's Wharf in Eastern Passage. Although parts of the trip were met with wind and a bit of waves, overall it was very enjoyable. Very impressed with the amazingly clear water and sandy beaches on the Dartmouth facing side of McNabs.
McNabs Island is the largest island in Halifax Harbour located in Halifax Regional Municipality, Nova Scotia, Canada. It played a major role in defending Halifax Harbour and is now a provincial park. The island was first settled in 1780s by Peter McNab, and McNab family members lived on the island until 1934.
The island saw seasonal Mi'kmaq and Acadian use and was surveyed by the French Navy as a possible site for a fortified seaport prior to the selection of Louisbourg. After the founding of Halifax in 1749, it was first known as Cornwallis Island. Halifax merchant Joshua Mauger used the long beach which still bears his name as a base for a fishing operation in the 1750s and '60s.[1] The island was purchased by Peter McNab (d. 1799, buried at Old Burying Ground) in the 1780s beginning a long settlement by generations of the McNab family on the island. Peter McNab's son Captain John McNab, Nova Scotia Fencibles, lived with his daughter Catherine Susan Ann McNabb on McNabs Island. She married Joseph Howe on February 2, 1828.[2]
Peter McNab, namesake of McNab's Island, Old Burying Ground (Halifax, Nova Scotia)
McNabs Island contains many forts belonging to the Halifax Defence Complex including Fort Ives, Fort Hugonin, Sherbrooke Tower, and Fort McNab. Important historic features on McNabs Island which are still visible include the foundations of several houses built by early settlers, an aboriginal shell midden, a cemetery containing some of the island's earliest residents, remains of a turn of the century picnic ground and soda pop factory, and remnants of a once extensive Victorian garden. Numerous military fortifications can be found, including Fort McNab, Fort Ives, Fort Hugonin and Strawberry Battery. Other features include the original McNab house, Martello Tower, and the main burial site of cholera victims from the S.S. England.
Maugher Beach, where a lighthouse stands, is also known as Hangman's Beach because of its use by the Royal Navy during the Napoleonic wars to hang the bodies of executed mutineers as a warning to crews of ships entering the harbour that this was a port where they had best behave themselves. The light at Maughers Beach was used in 1851 by Abraham Gesner to test out the new fuel he had invented, kerosene, to replace whale oil. Although lighthouse officials were skeptical, the careful recording of the efficiency of kerosene by Maughers Beach keeper David George helped establish the fuel for standard use.
An anti-submarine net running between York Redoubt and McNabs Island.
During World War II new gun batteries, search lights and a steel anti-submarine net were installed between the island and York Redoubt to prevent German U boats from entering the harbour. In 1944 and 1945 the Canadian Army used McNabs Island as an isolated prison/detention centre for soldiers convicted of crimes.
