    Some very interesting places! Thanks for sharing. Although, I did titter every time you said ‘tour’. You pronounce it ‘torr’ and we say ‘two-er’ 😂

      Hahaha, accents are a funny thing but then I don't have one 🤣🤣🤣👍

    Zoe is right, no way I’d climb into that tower. I’ve loved your adventures in Ireland.

    Last time I went up steps like that was in The Guaita fortress in San Marino. I also banged head like you did in the Round Tower at Kilkenny. From your travels in Ireland it's now on the list for when I can not be in the Schengen Zone.

      I'm glad to hear that Ireland is now on your list, @qwertysds 👍👍

    Visit Whitby and stay next to the Abbey - lovely walks, lots to see! And the best fish and chips

    • @HermanHitstheRoad

      Thanks for the location, idea, @lizphillipson7536 👍👍. We went there a few years ago. The abbey is on a hill, I assume you don't mean stay right next to the abbey but down in the town? I believe Whitby is kind of closed to motorhomes these days, isn't it?

      Park4Night YO22 4JR £9 per 24 hrs lovely spot lovely view of Abbey and a good walk down the steps into the town!

    We're planning to do the north Atlantic way next year, so thanks for some great ideas 💡 would love to see you doing the south Wales road trip 👍

    • @HermanHitstheRoad
      @HermanHitstheRoad  Před 8 měsíci

      North Atlantic Way, @garywalker8186? What's that then?
      And the same question about the South Wales Road Trip, I've not heard of that one, either. We've travelled along the M4 several times in the last 12 months to get to Fishguard but I don't think you mean that

    Ah yes now….the traditional Oirish spud waffle to be sure. Breakfast of champions.

    Thank you for taking us up the tower. If we go I’d be at the bottom looking up. The breakfast looked yummy. Take care Gill

    Hook lighthouse is fantastic. The food they do in the cafe there is so nice too! Also, all the rocks around hook is full of little fossils (it’s easy to walk over them and not even notice). It’s a great spot.

    • @HermanHitstheRoad
      @HermanHitstheRoad  Před 8 měsíci

      Oh I do like a fossil, @eviema but I didn't see them 😞. I'll look out for them if we go back

    First time I've seen a potato waffle as part of an Irish breakfast fry up. Where's the soda bread and potato bread?

    • @HermanHitstheRoad
      @HermanHitstheRoad  Před 8 měsíci +1

      Very true, @craigavonvideo. I'd have liked a traditional Irish breakfast but this was delish and I was hungry

    • @craigavonvideo
      @craigavonvideo Před 8 měsíci

      Just had another local delicacy for lunch ... a sauage, bacon & egg soda. Don't think that's made its way to Engerland yet. 😀@@HermanHitstheRoad

    An interesting thing about the tower, is that it has no foundation.
    They just took off the topsoil and built on the clay.
    Archiologists there are even a few graves half under the walls of the tower!

      Thanks for the interesting info, @nigelmchugh5541 👍👍
