- The Wee Broon Van is visiting Banchory, and Mike shows off his culinary skills in the campervan kitchen. Our day trips include the Falls of Feugh, Scolty Hill & Crathes Castle.
Those falls are Feughing beautiful 😝
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Greetings from Poland.
I've reached a milestone - video number 50! What a wonderful back-catalogue.
Silverbank site looked nice. What a gorgeous walk along the River Dee to Banchory. Your Curry Night looked fun
Falls of Feugh and Scolty Hill were beautiful despite the terrible weather.
For me, Crathes Castle was the best visit on this vlog. Dog friendly too!
A lovely video. Stay safe and see you again soon.
Thanks Michael well done for reaching the half century 👏 👍. Glad you enjoyed that one, I do like a good walk but got soaked on that one.

😊 Thanks, its a lot easier these days being able to search for interesting places online
Good video
Cheers, glad you liked it 👍
We just love your video , from Guadeloupe
Wow, so far away, we have been to Barbados and St Lucia in 2012 for our 25th wedding anniversary but not to Guadeloupe, it must be very beautiful there Thanks for watching.
@@MikeandTriciaOotnAboot It is beautiful but I miss Scoland (Ayrshire) so much. We will be moving back home in 2 years cant wait. Then we will be buying a wee broon van to.
@@elizabethmcilwraith9768 Scotland will welcome you back with open arms 💕
Another great one Mike and Tricia. Pity that the rain prevented you getting drone shots. Great story telling - as usual.
Thanks Naz, we sure had more than our fair share of rain on that trip, but we had a great time just the same.Thanks for the feedback👍
cheers, the castle looked well worth a visit...enjoying your vids..mick in orkney...
Thanks Mick, the castle was an unexpected bonus being right next to the campsite. Hope the weather is holding up in Orkney.
Another enjoyable video guys.Not been to either the falls or the castle, we will be up in Turriff visiting friends later in the year so will be sure to go see them both.
Thanks Gillian, its well worth a visit and they are both doable in one day.
This was my 1st video of yours that I have watched. I loved it so much! It happens to be that your in a town I know and love and you showed it off well, even though the weather did not shine at this time. I enjoyed your narration very much. I appreciated seeing what and how you cooked too. This was just a great video and I look forward to checking out more of your fun adventures. All the best!
Thanks for watching Monica, we are glad that you have found us. It sure is a beautiful place to visit, there are just so many amazing place in Scotland, we are so lucky. Hope you enjoy our other videos.
Loved the vid as always. Good to see you out and about
Thanks Alan, are you out this year?
@@MikeandTriciaOotnAboot just short trips at the moment. Away for 1 night tonight
@@alannorman1773 its quite difficult finding sites with space, they are all very busy.
Hi Mike and Tricia. Really enjoyed the vlog. Pity the weather was against you on Scolty Hill. The views would have been even more impressive if the clouds had cleared and the drone could have been flown. Crathes Castle looked the business - just the kind of place we like to visit. We've got a Scottish Tour coming up, and tried to book Silverbank but couldn't get the dates to fit, but it's on our "to go" list. Another smashing video. Thanks again. Safe travels. George and Trish - CaravanningMacs
Thanks you two, yes it was a pity that we couldn't get Midge into the air, but we make up for it in the next one. All the best for your Scottish tour.
Full of interesting facts and information as usual and it was a cooling experience just watching in this mini May heatwave we're having 🤣. The last time I stayed by the Dee was twenty-five years or so ago and the hotel is now apartments, by the Dee in Ballater. If you didn't get that rain around those parts then it wouldn't be so green and beautiful. I wish I could still climb those hills like I used to but it's a good job I have folks like you to do it for me 🤣. Looking forward to another installment soon. Reallenjoy the snippets of interesting facts. I never have worked out whether having an eclectic mind is a boon or a bane though 🤔 but either way I'm stuck with it as it appears you both are.. 👍
Definitely a boon, but makes the film making more challenging when I see things and want to know about them, the research often follows the filming and voice over works for that approach. Happy to do the hills for you there is a good one coming soon.
Very enjoyable. Loved the long range shots of you all. The ghost story was good and that shot of the swallows swooping. Impressive hidey hole tree and probably the best we have seen. Keep them coming ❤️
Thanks Ken & Carol, we really enjoyed Banchory and getting some of these shots. Wee red camper does not have the same Scottish feel so your branding is safe 😉
Love your vids folks ;¬)
Cheers Tony and thanks for watching 👀 👍
I must say it's ever green and senick love it
Very lush with all the rain we've had, and was great for having a walk.
Nice to see the 3 of you again, hoping for better weather. 🌞🌞🌞
Us too, and its much better this week 🌞
Thats what I do when camping with a curry same brand as well. My tip add a spoonful of lime pickle and garam masala to the beef madras. Heaven whith no bill.
Sounds great, they are quick and easy, I wouldn't have one every night though, Trish would not thank me for that if you know what I mean.
Hi Mike and Tricia, brilliant video pity about the weather. Hope it clears up before the next one. Looking forward to seeing it already.
Thanks, it was pretty bad but just had to get on with it, thanks as always for the feedback 👍
Great video. Love the time and effort you put in with your filming. All the camera setting, filming, camera retrieving. Much appreciated.
Thanks Peter, so glad that you noticed, it makes it all worthwhile when I get that kind of feedback 👍
Great Mike loved the footage and story telling
Thanks Stew 😊 👍
Thanks guys 😊
Cheers Peter, glad you enjoyed it.
Wonderful video and journey Mike, Tricia & Kiera. Beautifully filmed and edited!! The scenery was gorgeous ❣️
Thanks Jackie, the scenery was something special, much better than we expected. Many thanks for your kind comments 😀
Nice video, we must get back there now we know how to pronounce 'Banchory. '
Ha ha, yes its one of these places where unless you have heard someone pronounce it, you are going to get it wrong.
Great video, there's some wonderful trees in Scotland. Shame about the weather but it didn't stop me from enjoying the video drinking a cup of coffee here in the dry.
Ha ha, glad you enjoyed it in the dry, it has finally stopped raining here in Scotland. 🌞
beautiful carvings, i enjoy your walks ty
Thanks a lot for your feedback, we loved the carvings too.
That was great little video guys. Up in Aberdeen ourselves for a few nights at the weekend and actually drove to Banchory on Sunday eve after visiting Stonehaven…the park and the falls were really nice.
Safe travels 👍🏼
Its a great little place, we really enjoyed it in Banchory, thanks for the feedback 👍
How are you doing ihope you are fine actually iam new subscriber Arabic lady citizen thank you for showing us such magnificent landscapes historical places we are as foreigners subscribers as overseas students enjoy to explore places unknown to us to increase our cultural level improve our English language as well i gathered main information about places you visited here it’s banchary Scottish Gaelic is burgh or town in Aberdeenshire Scotland about 18 Milles west of Aberdeen near where feugh river meets river dee known as gate way to royal deeside there are small town museum birth place of James Scott skinner there are too many traditional musicians singers local land marks Scolty hill
Thanks for these comments too, you have learned a lot about the places we visit, we wish you well and so pleased you are watching
Looked like your enclosure was made of vinyl? We had a 4 sided vinyl enclosure on our pontoon boat. It snapped on and was easily rolled up during warm days. But oh, was it a nice wind/rain break and gave us nice protection against the elements. You guys made me tired with all your walking, but I give you credit for all that exercise and fresh air. Take care. Sandy from OH, USA
Hi Sandy, yes vinyl so it is very waterproof and cab just be dried with a cloth before packing away, and its just enough to keep the wind at bay. We sure did a lot of walking on that one, a good enough excuse to put the feet up and have a glass or two 🤣
We are staying at that campsite in July/August.
Ju
😁
Its a cracking site👍
Another great video the wood carvings were amazing, I've never heard of Cathes castle, l used to love going out in the rain in Scotland it always smelled so fresh, not like here in Florida it just smells humid.
There is so.much of Scotland l didn't see, but when your young and just starting a family, you don't think of going to far, we went to Beescraig park often it wasn't far, or a drive to Queensferry.
Good to see you both out enjoying nature. 🌞
Thanks, yes its very lush and green here, i have just been to Florida once and struggled with the dry heat but I guess you get used to it.
Oo cheers guys, we are there next month to visit the area as my nanna came from Aberdeen and great greats worked in the area. ❤️
Ah that's great, glad our we video gave you a glimpse of the area.
That must have been the weekend that we went to Tarland camping....Rain & more rain 🤷♀️
Very likely, much better now though.
The Feugh is not pronounced Fook it is pronounced FEUGH AS IN FEUCH Emphasis on the U hope that helps. Crathes castle is called Crath es . great video . x
It's not easy to explain pronunciation with written words, but I get it, so thanks for that and the feedback 👍💕🐾
