CAN'T BELIEVE IT HAPPENED AGAIN (The Wild Atlantic Way || more Ring of Kerry)

- Join us this week for more winter van life antics. We have some more bad luck but we try to stay positive and continue to explore beautiful Ireland in our transit van and finish off the Ring of Kerry.
We are Tom and Iz - a couple from Cornwall who decided to hit the road and embrace a new way of life, living and exploring in our tiny home on wheels, La Bamba. We invite you along with us on our adventures in our weekly vlogs. We love to embrace adventure and soak up nature every day! We're currently traveling around Ireland in our transit van along the Wild Atlantic Way. Ireland has really stolen our hearts; come along with us on this week's episode as we finish our travels around the ring of Kerry. If you've missed our travels along the WAW so far - check out our previous episodes, we upload weekly on a Sunday at 5pm :)
We start this episode at St. Finians's Bay, which lies about half way round the Skellig ring. We stayed a couple nights at this beautiful spot. Our first stop is to top up our water at a nearby cemetery. With limited campsites open at the moment we do rely on public taps we find. Tom talks you through our water setup (very simple and a bit of a bodge job but it does the trick).
Next on the agenda is Ballenskelligs, where we head over to look at the Priory where the monks fled to from Skellig Michael in the late 13th century. We explore the ruined castle and we chat about how we have coped with winter van life in Ireland and how we get services. To our delight there is a campsite opening up the next day - maybe that's a sign that winter is ending!?
We then head to Waterville, a stunning location for our grocery shop! We meet some really lovely locals who we get chatting to at the beach, and we spot about 5 seals swimming really close to us on the shore and we have a long natter with some locals.
We find yet another ringfort but to Isabel's delight there's no souterrain. We head on for an unbelievably stunning drive out to a beautiful viewpoint looking out onto the Beara Peninsula. We then drive through Derrynane and are amazed by it's beauty but there are lots of no overnight parking signs so we don't stop for the night there, instead we find a beautiful secluded harbour nearby to spend the night. Isabel wakes up feeling a bit stir crazy so she goes for a dip in the sea despite it not being very inviting! We go on a much needed walk around our parkup and appreciate how peaceful it is! We spend the day working and another night at this spot. We then head on to "Abbey Island"; an island you can only walk to at low tide with a cemetery and ruins of a 10th century abbey. After visiting an Ogham Stone, we then have an unfortunate accident at Derrynane gardens which leaves us feeling cross with ourselves so we take a dip in the sea to try and clear our heads.
We then head to the first campsite we've been to in a long time - such a gorgeous campsite "wave crest camping" with great pitches overlooking the sea. We were the only people staying there that night! We head to the nearby pub "The Blind Piper" for some wonderful live music by Wallie and Vincent and a couple of Guinness. The next day we have some very bad luck taking some drone shots of the campsite.. we drive to Sneem to try and get a change of scenery and move on. We chill out at a beautiful little harbour nearby and the following day, the mood is lifted so we head to Kenmare to meet our friends Steph, Jeffrey and Sofia again (who brought their van along - Navigating Neena). We catch the rugby in a pub and then head back for some super noodles before hosting them all in La Bamba for a few drinks!! We wake up and go for a woodland walk and build a fairy house with Sofia in the woods (we think the adults enjoyed it more than Sofia ha). We then visit a stone circle in Kenmare from about 3000 BC - we do a funky fairy dance around the stone circle and finish the episode here in Kenmare.
You might notice that in this week's episode we haven't included our "what 3 words" that pinpoint the exact square meter location of where we were. We are attempting to be more conscientious of the impact we have on sites we visit, especially the quiet and secluded ones.
Thank you for watching! We really appreciate this community we are building and it is soo lovely to read all the uplifting messages. We are sorry that we haven't been able to reply to everyone, we enjoy reading them all though - keep them coming!
Thank you so much to everybody who sent us a "coffee" this week! We've been blown away by your generosity.
Have a great week.
Isabel and Tom
Hello all,
We hope you enjoy this episode. You may notice we have not included the locations and what3words this week. We are trying to be more conscientious of the impact we are having on some of the locations we visit, particularly the small rural ones we love the most. Sorry if this is disappointing for you, we are just trying to do the right thing, and are still mulling this decision over. If you would like to understand how we came to this decision feel free to give this podcast a listen: open.spotify.com/episode/7qBL1p9pp47I2P6ZATACuo?si=28355f0ed45b49f1
Thank you all for watching, we have been so blown away by the support we have from this wonderful community.
Appreciate you thinking of the bigger picture. I'm from Ireland so this means a lot. 💚☘️💚☘️💚💚
@@caffhan I'll definitely second that. I live on the Beara peninsula.
This is very honest opinions and we can contribute to getting a new drone.
I agree, let's keep the remote locations remote, very conscientious decision.
Pity about the done, set up a patreon page fund and let's get started with funding a third drone ! And this time get insurance ie, no return from flight, DJI offer it.
Because your videos are so cool just like you both and too be so caring about not saying were you are for the care of the area and the people just shows you're the best people. . . Keep bringing the best wee videos just stay safe with the bad weather at the moment. X
The Druids have your drones :)
If ye set up a GoFundMe to replace the drone I'd be willing to donate (and I'm sure others would too).
They need a Patreon page. Subscriber base is big enough now.
yes I also would like to contribute to help replace your drone, you are giving me great entertainment thank you for coming to Ireland
They have a page it's buy me a coffee.
I’ll be up for contributing too 👍🏻
I agree and would be pleased to support, lovely to share the views but perhaps not the freezing cold dips 😉
You have encouraged me to add Ireland to my bucket wish list - Yet again, a lovely video.... Thank you...
A wise choice, you wont regret it!
Love your videos Isabel and Tom, i,m even being educated about my own country Ireland, very informative, Isabel you have taught me more about stone circles, forts and monks moving to the mainland, fantastic, hope you will not leave Ireland any time soon. Colm
Hi Colm, so glad you are taking something from our videos. We have learnt so many amazing things while traveling through Ireland and are very excited to share it.
There is a good campsite in Glengariff in the Beare peninsula and it’s open 24 hours a day. Nearby is quaint Glengariff village where Maureen O’Hara holidayed every year in her home that her family still owns. Don’t miss nearby Bantry and especially Bantry House and ground. And Jeremy Irons lives in Kilcoe Castle tower just beyond in Skibbereen.
Unfortunately Bantry house is closed at the mo. We actually ended up staying at a very funny little campsite in Glengariff, it was basically someone's garden, we loved it so much . Kilcoe Castle has been added to the list, thank you
Fair play guys yet again! It won't be long before you will have the equivalent of the whole of Croke Park roaring youse along on your journey in the little van only suited for two. And thousands behind you.
We have been absolutely blown away by the number of people following us on our little journey plodding down the coast. I love the thought of the digital Croke Park crowd cheering us on!
Just watched your latest episode. Brilliant as usual. It has become part of our Sunday evening essential viewing . Unbelievable bad luck about your drones. Looking forward to next week's adventure
amazing, that is so nice to hear! yeah the drone was a real pain, but we got over it in the end, nothing a bit of rugby and guinness couldnt sort out, haha.
Will just enjoy Beautiful Ireland 🇮🇪 love the videos and Ireland 🇮🇪.Good luck 🍀 with everything you both do.🌍🌈🌈💚💚
Thank you Diane, so glad you are enjoying the videos, this is such a nice message, good luck with everything you do to!
Well done to think about this. Especially important in relatively more pristine places like Beara, Sheep's Head and Mizen peninsulas. When the individual traveller, driven by curiosity, finds somewhere nice, that's a pleasure for the locals. When mass tourism hits, it can alter the nature of the place and try the patience of the local people who have to do the cleaning up after the less responsible visitors.
I think coming from Cornwall we have seen what "over tourism" can do to places that do not have the infrastructure to deal with it. It can be very hard to find the balance, but i think respect for the local people and places is key, treat it like your own home.
Sorry to hear about the drone. We trashed one by taking off and hitting branch panicked and went wrong way. Drone fell on rocks. We have dji refresh so didn’t cost full money. Feel like lost mojo on it now as constantly worrying about it.
We now have DJI refresh! lesson learnt! yeah i feel im going to be super cautious from now, but need to make myself take a few risks to get the best shots, just a little scared
Well done guys on another great episode. Sorry to see about the loss of the new drone. Hopefully the next one will last longer. The drone shots are amazing, so well done to persevere with it. Thank you.
Thanks Kevin, well i think it would be hard pressed to last any less time, haha. Glad you are enjoying the videos
@@LostInTransit Great video, didn't you take the cover with DJI, they do cover flyaways I believe?
I practiced and crashed a couple of times with a cheap drone, then bought a mini 2 and had it a year before I managed to crash it, but it still flies even though it is now glued up everywhere!
Really sorry to hear about the second drone crash. Sneem is my favorite place on the ring of Kerry. Loving your videos, they are great.👍😊
Its okay, just a bit hard to swallow at the time. Sneem is beautiful, although i was in a glum mood i couldnt help but admit how lovely it was, haha
aww thats a sickner about the drone..bloody argos strikes again.
Haha Gene yep exactly back to Killarney argos we go !
Jaysus. Poor drone. In fairness she went out with a banger of a shot. Looked the epic finale of movie. Can’t get a bad shot in that part of the country. Beara next and then my home county with 1100 Kms of coastline. Best of luck guys.
Sorry to see the drone crashed, but the video on it's final flight was epic!
Hey Mike, thank you, these things happen and like you said it was cool that we managed to catch some footage from its final moments!
The great American abolitionist Douglas Frederick was a huge admirer of Daniel O`Connell When Douglas was on the run as a fugitive slave he spent 4 moths in Dublin where he met O`Connell.When holding one of his mass meetings O`Connell invited Douglas to address the crowd which he proceed to do with rhetoric to match O`Connell`s own masterly ability
Amazing, thanks for all the info, this is amazing. I have genuinely learnt so much on this trip, and through the comments section, thanks agains
Hello folks, I would just like to thank you for all the pleasure your videos have given me. I loved your Scottish travels as I lived and worked there many years and remembered so much. Also worked in Ireland and have many fond memories of there. A place I think you would love is the Shetland Isles where i worked for several months many years ago. Beautiful beaches and stunning coastal scenery and pretty quiet. Also pretty windy!! One last comment - you are a lovely couple and as I am sure many others have commented Isabel has the most beautiful eyes!
Hello Andrew! Thank you so much for letting us know all these fab encouraging things! so delighted to hear you get some pleasure from the vids and yes agreed I think we would like the shetland isles too! They sound right up our street!
When you go to mizen head make sure you go to dunlough fort castle ( three castle head )
Added to the list, thank you
I'd be more than happy to donate a few euro toward a new drone,I watch your videos with joy every week,you've shown me places I've never seen in my country !!
Helloo - oh thank you ever so much thats so sweet and generous of you to say. We have set up a "buy me a coffee" page but we are blown away by the generosity of others. We have a third drone now with DJI care package and are being extra cautious! thank you ever so much for saying this and we are just so delighted our vids bring you joy!
Hi Guys, Myself and Daughter are followers of you channel and major fans, we are heading down to kerry for the weekend on a getaway I possible we would love to meet you guys for a coffee or if we could bring both of you for lunch it would be amazing if you are still around we both would love to hear from you,, both of you are an inspiration to people to get out and embrace life. Look forward to hearing from you Jonathan and Michaela
Hello Jonathon! I replied to your daughter on instagram, thank you for this, this is ever so sweet and generous of you! we actually have left Kerry now so won't be available for a meetup but I hope you have a wonderful weekend away ! take care and thank you again for this super kind offer :)
Hello Isabel and Tom 👋 another great vlog, beautiful scenery 😊. Sorry you lost another drone 😕. Thank you for sharing the ups and downs of your life and keep it real. Stay warm and positive 🙏
Thank you Anita, we were pretty grumpy the day after, but looking on the bright side again! Thank you for watch, i hope you are well
@@LostInTransit glad you are doing better and thank you I'm well 👍
At least you can find your way back round Ireland again from all the drones you smashed up. Excellent video.
Yeah it is the modern version of Hansel and Gretel's bread crumbs, haha
Thanks again Tom and Is...I smile my way through each of your episodes. 💚
Hey Fergal aww what an amazing comment! thank you and delighted to hear we can make you smile!!
That Balloon trick could be a game changer for myself! Thanks!
Haha, so glad we could help out, so simple, but works a treat
RIP drone no. 2 :( - We'll still watch along happily without any drone footage though!!
Thanks Kieran, this is lucky because the wind is crazy at the min, not sure how much drone footage we will be getting in the next few videos.
So sorry that you lost your drone that was sad. Thank you so much for your amazing vlog, so brave to go into the sea! I’m enjoying every bit of your travels see you next time.
Hello Mary, the drone was a bummer, and we were pretty grumpy for a while but onwards and upwards (maybe not the best turn of phrase considering how the drone died, haha)
see you next time
Can't wait for you to see county louth, the smallest county in Ireland, otherwise known as the wee county. If ye need somewhere to do laundry and freshen up, your very welcome to my home. I can even provide a nice warm bed for the night and a few glasses of wine 😉😉. Xxx
Hi Sarah! aw what an amazing offer thank you so much! How generous!! We really would love to see the east coast but not sure if we will have time this trip - if not we have to come back! xx
really enjoyed this weeks episode Tom and Iz pity about the drone ive smashed quite a few over the years ..to be honest you both have great video skills and Tom your editing is great so i think you could get away with no drone shots for abit although the drone shots can be epic ,,,,, love the balloon for the water in the van idea so cheap yet does the job
Thank you so much Karl, this is really nice to hear, especially considering the weather at the min, I think the next few videos could be lacking a few drone shots. Hopefully it will calm down again soon and we can start flying again.
6.12 You look stunning Is natural beauty.
Lovely scenic video, made me want to visit that area of Ireland very much. Gutted about your drone ... what can I say😳 😓. Lets hope the next one makes up for it and lasts for years 😉
94 more days! Then off to Ireland! I said it before, but I do so very much love your videos.
My grandmother would always say, "Into every life a little rain must fall." Tough break about the drone, but it did give you an awesome view of the coastline on it's final flight.
It is too bad you will won't be around when I get there, but you are whetting my appetite for the Emerald Isle in a big way. Stay safe.
heya aww the countdown is on bet youre so excited. we really love hearing you love our vids so keep it coming woo! I like your grandmother's quote, so true. Like you said its final flight was a good shot!! thank you for watching!!
Another great video guys! Loving the content 👍 you two are just so ace and what you show us all is brill ❤
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it, and thanks for watching again
@@LostInTransit lovin it ❤
Great episode guys, I must say I loved the music u paired with the death of the drone.
Safe travels
Hey Niamh, aw thank you ha it was quite dramatic.. glad you enjoyed!! take care :)
What awful bad luck, 2 drones in 2 weeks. Had i have crashed one of my drones and it still appeared to work, i would have set distance and height to a maximum of 50 to 100 metres. Done a few flight tests and made sure it was flying correctly. Not nice to lose a drone, hopefully it will not happen again. 🙏😥
Hi Glen, thank youu, yeah good tip!! ah well, we live and learn! take care and thank you for watching!
Sorry for your Drone drama guys....chin up. Kerry is amazing!!
Tom, I believe Luke Skywalker's Starfighter met the same faith in that location 😄Others say the Bermuda Triangle actually extends to the Kerry coast!!! 👾👾👾👾👾👾👾
Love the content and enjoying the journey with you guys. Stay safe over the next couple of days with this stormy weather
🌬🌬🌬🌬🌧🌧🌧
hahaha, if its good enough for Luke Skywalker it is good enough for me. The weather has been crazy, it has been one huge storm after the other!
Sorry to hear about you losing another drone…..really bad luck! Hope you guys safe after storms Eunice and Franklin. A torrid few days!!
Hey Mike! No worries these things do happen and like you said a spot of bad luck! and thank you we did take care in the storms and I hope you did too. Have a great Sunday and new vid comes out later yay!
Weather in Kerry is very bad now - hope you are keeping safe
Hey Seamus, it is really bad, i thought Eunice was the end of it, but it is still so stormy! We are safe and cozy thank you, i hope you are to
Well done guys you make our Irish winter look okish
haha, okayish, well with the recent weather im not sure how okayish it will continue to look
Guys, this was really bad luck, and the second one in a row. I suggest that you upload the flight logs to the Mavic Pilots website, they will get to the bottom of it. If they find it's an issue with the drone, you'll have a strong case for a free replacement. Great video again, besides this disaster 👍
Excellent vid guys. If you keep losing drones it's going to affect your Guinness fund but there is always a silver lining you are keeping me in a job just as long as you have purchased it from the same place.
Guinness stocks must drop a few points each time we crash a drone, haha. We did get the new one from the same spot, so thank you again for your effort in keeping us going
You are welcome
Hi there you two. Thank you again for a great vlog. I'm so sorry about the drone, that is pretty sh*t luck. I agree with your decision not to include the what3words locations. The beauty of discovering new places in my opinion is simply that, the beauty of discovering new places. Let people do their own "leg work", and keep the disruption to the locals to a minimum. Great filming again and superb editing, it's like an Attenborough documentary and thoroughly absorbing. I'm glad you were safe during these storms. Stay safe.
Aw thanks, we were not sure how people would react to us removing the locations but it has been overwhelmingly positive and i think it is the right decision. It would be a shame that in being so positive about a place we end up destroying what we love about it. So glad you are enjoying the vlogs, give Josie a big hug from us
@@LostInTransit Hug administered. :-)
Love your videos so free and with nature and what better place than Ireland 🇮🇪
i never would have expected to find so much freedom and nature here, but wow, ireland has been unbelievable, we have really fallen for it. we have been window shopping for fields and ruins that we would one day love to build a family from
Drone replacement #3, Google Maps satellite view, just kidding, you two can't get a break with drones. Safe travels.
haha cheers Ernest - 3rd time lucky ey - take care
Wow that drone didn't die in vain. What shots you got of the area - blown away lol
Hope u raise the funds to help.
I am so glad i have the auto save to my phone, some small condolence of the lost drone. We did actually start a "buy me a coffee" page and the drone has already been paid for from it! we have been really blown away by the support
Ireland has been beautiful through your eyes, really enjoying the videos and hope we can get out there one day. The drone scene was a cinematic masterpiece! My heart was in my mouth watching the drone disappear over the sea. Music was tugging at my heart strings! Can't imagine what it must have been like to watch that happen 😢 Hopefully the new drone is better behaved. Keep doing what you do guys, sending love from Turkey xx 💕
I hipe you do get to come over to Ireland it is a very special place. "cinematic masterpiece", you are doing terrible things to my ego, hahaha. It was actually so stressful, it was the drawn out nature, watching my little drone head off on his own as the controller angrily beeped at me. Thanks so much for watching, it means a lot
Bummer about the drones. Nice to see you keeping your good mood.
I'd consider "care refresh" if you get another DJI drone - for me it worked well and it might even cover a fly away...
Hiya! thank youu yes we have bought DJI care on our new drone :) we did actually have it for the first drone but it had expireed after the year... we will know for next time!! take care and thanks for watching :)
In fairness the drone shots you got when it went crazy were brilliant. Any link that we donate to help towards another one. Keep up the amazing work.
Please do this.
Many people might contribute to the cost of the drones. Some people might like you to have a treat too, maybe a meal out?
Thank you David this is incredibly kind of you to say!
Hi Michael, thank you haha love that!! yes the final shots were pretty cool to be fair!! thank you this is so kind of you to offer. I can see you already supported us on our buy me a coffee page. Thank you ever so much!
Loving the drone drama!
Im glad some good came of it, but if it stops now that would be brilliant
I know that it’s really sad that you lost another drone, but my goodness, what amazing final views!!
Hey Marian, ha love it! it was a dramatic scene and cool that Tom could still capture the low res footage of the drone flying off on his phone. Shame we didnt capture its final moments into the sea!!
I am sorry to hear that you have lost another drone. I know the sick feeling only to well as you know. Its heartbreaking watching 500£ fly away into the ocean. BUT it is just a piece of plastic. Easily replaceable. Your channel is going really well and I am sure you will make a few quid back. Stay positive and keep on living your dream! All the best from Albania! 👍🍻
Hi guys, as you say it's just a piece of plastic. its hard not to get wrapped up in a grump, especially as the flying off to sea is so drawn out and stressful with it beeping away at you. We are over it now, if anything i just feel bad about the plastic in the sea now. Thanks for watching again guys, we will have to catch up with you, i hear Albania is incredible
@@LostInTransit It will wash up in now time and someone will pick it up! I hope you didn't lose to much footage on it. When I lost mine I was most gutted about the footage I took that day. But onwards and upwards. Keep on making those memories! Best of luck and safe travels to yourself and Isabella! 👍❤
A fantastic attitude to life guys and another great blog and as always the music is top class keep up the good work
Cheers Donie, so glad you enjoyed it
What a relief! For a moment I thought you'd lost more forks 😨 Fingers crossed that's the last drone that makes a bid for freedom. I'm looking forward to seeing how you coped during the storms that hit the UK (and Ireland, I assume) since this episode was recorded. Hopefully better weather is going to arrive soon. Stay safe and warm out there.
Hey David hahaha thankfully the forks are still intact, still have four haha. Yep third time lucky with the drone and we are being super duper careful, if not too cautious now!! thank youu we were fine for the storms, tucked ourselves inland a bit, I hope you were ok in them too! :)
I love the comfy looking multi use of your bed space set up.
Heya ha thank you so much!! we recommend this set up - more spacious in the day and a nice big sofa space!
Another great Vlog. I hope you have survived the storms this week. God damn guys, second drone down 😑 Looked like it got caught in a fast moving jet stream. Always a risk.
Yeah, it was quite something, never seen anything like it. I thin we were a little sheltered at the campsite and then at a certain hight it was just gone! what a bummer, we are over it now though, ohmmmmm
Another fantastic episode guys, loved the tunes, even though it was the last flight of the drone it was pretty epic with that soundtrack,loved every moment 💚💚💚
I grew a beard last autumn for the first time. It has 4 major advantages. 1. It keeps your face warm. 2. It's extremely low maintenance (I'm not a trendy hipster) 3. The missus hates it and 4. It is an excellent long term food storage area. All in All, a win win win win situation. P.S Should you really be giving Isabel caffeine?
Hahaha, i will do my best to squeeze one out, sounds perfect... and no! i should not!
Great video! Wow, crazy to watch your drone drifting off and away. Sorry dudes
Tom's a lucky boy, she's gorgeous and loves van life! Hold on to this one, she's a keeper!
haha Hey Andrew this made me laugh.. thank youu !!
Wow didn't know drones could go rogue!! Crazy
haha me neither! D'oh!!
Sorry about the drone,but the scenery your both are showing is pretty special,stay safe
Yeah it is incredible, we had no idea that it was going to be like this, we are just blown away week after week
Let us all buy more coffees. Will that help the drone fund?
Hi Ray - thank you that is really sweet of you to say! We have been utterly blown away by everybodys generosity. We have drone number 3 now and are being extra careful with it! Thank you so much for your support!!
We're enjoying your videos guys! Good editing and great content! Keep them coming! 👍👍👍😊
Thanks David, so pleased you're enjoying them.
So sorry that your drone broke again , it was our of your control . Thank you for sharing your amazing travels ❤️
Hey Hugh - aw thanks man, no worries it happens doesnt it. Thank you so much for watching our travels!!! we feel so grateful!
Love it 💯💯🌎🌎🇨🇦 you lucky buggers 💯
Cheers Love! Thanks for watching.
I've watched several of your videos in recent weeks and have really enjoyed them. Right now, you two are doing exactly the right thing. Seize the hour, for the time will arrive when other things get in the way of you doing something similar - just different things, many good. But looking back, you won't regret this adventure for a heartbeat.
Hey Bob, cheers for this inspiring lovely comment! this gives us the motivation to get out there and keep exploring! thank you ever so much what wonderful words of wisdom!
Didn’t even think of you all on the west during the storm this past weekend! Hope you were okay? I’m sure there will be footage to come!!
Hey Kelly :) aw thanks for this - we were absolutely fine thank you, tucked ourselves a bit inland and it really wasnt that bad. Hope you managed to stay warm and safe yourself :)
Pretty sure you guys will already know but incase you don’t, DJI offer a care package for about £40. You can get 2 full repairs of a drone and 1 full replacement if it’s lost completely. For a fee of course but considerably less than the cost of 2 new drones 😂. Could give you some peace of mind. Love the videos!
Hey Gary, thank you for this. we have bought another drone now (3rd time lucky) and bought the care package on this one. We did have a care package on the first one but it had expired after a year and we didnt refresh it , oops! def worth having! take care and thanks for the positive encouragement!
Sorry to hear about the drone and love the episode and great place and you show it all so well. Stay safe..
Thank you Michael - glad you enjoyed this one! take care :)
Great vlog again! Bad drone luck 🙈 name the next drone, it might be luckier 🍀
🤞look forward to your next vlog 😁👌
Thanks Rob. Will give the drone a name this time, our luck can't get any worse, haha.
Hi Guys, love your videos. Great to escape from the daily grind with you.
HI Nigel, thank you so happy to have you come along and escape with us!!
Another enjoyable upload well done , hard luck about the drone unfortunately. Best of luck with the week ahead on your travels. Keep doing what your doing & make each day count 💪💪💪
Hi Michael, thank you ever so much. Such lovely inspiring words!!
Bad luck with the drone bless ye it's like ye lost a pet dam trees 🌳 😳 😀.
Yeah it was so annoying, such a piddly little tree overhanging the bench, so annoying
Continued compulsive viewing .
Deserve huge plaudits for easy flowing natural informative entertaining blogs ...
Keep safe Isabel and Tom...
Hello Tommie! Thank you thank you for this yaay!!! So great to hear!!
Great video and very hard luck re the second drone, it was a dramatic exit. Kerry is very impressive with its ancient landscape and ruins - I was relieved there were no underground chambers this week! Hope you are weathering the current storms safely and in reasonable comfort. Looking forward to the next edition.
Yeah, i think the way the drone died was part of why i found it so hard to deal with. It was so stressful just watching it disappear into the distance as it beeps at me for low battery. Yeah no chambers this week, i think they will all be flooded now after these rains, so you may be safe from anymore subterranean adventures
Great video as always. Hope the storms the last few days didn’t affect yous too much. Hopefully better weather to come. Keep the positivity it’s infectious.
We are fine, the only disappointing thing is that we haven't been able to explore as much as we would like. Bring back the winter sun!
Loving the vlogs lads. You are both great ambassadors for Ireland. Keep it up.
Hey Paul, thank you ever so much!! what a compliment! So glad you're enjoying them!
Well done guys, a really hard week for you and very demoralising, can see the effect it had on you both, but still great to see you smile and motor on at the end. Keep up the great work
Hey Stuart! thank you, at the end of the day it is just an object and we are lucky to be happy and healthy! thank you so much for watching!!
Hi Tom and isabel. Your adventures and journeying are to be honest, compulsive-viewing. I have been there and done that in quiet a few countries. I'm in Ireland and was born in Ireland but also possess Australian citizenship. I love the 'quirkiness' of Isabel's presentations and off-cuff interventions on cam. I love 'em. You are doing a wonderful job, both of you and we in Ireland welcome and make you most at home in our 'Green Isle.' I live in Ireland, in the South where you are presently travelling. I'm also a video producer, drone operator and still photographer of many many years. The drama's you've encountered by the loss of not one drone, but two, are simply intolerable. I've also been there many years ago with earlier DJI drones, but now I'm an accomplished pilot and still take ultra-care when I hit the skies with my drones. When you were visiting the beautiful Derrynane area and when your drone went-off on its own after its mishap the previous day, wdid you not engage RTH facility Tom?
Anyway, you both are an impressive pair. We all love watching your adventures and will continue to do so regardless of where you are, so please keep editing and posting. I too use FCP X for all my editing Tom. Take care you too, stay safe and be kind to each other and please keep us up to date. When do u depart Ireland and where are you presently?
Regards Tom and Isabel.
Jim Owers
Hello Jim, thank you this was a real pleasure to read and has given us such a positive encouraging boost!! It's so kind of you to say all those wonderful things, so thank you! And great to hear that you want us to keep making vids whereever we are yay! We aim to and really enjoy making them! We did have the return to home facility but unfortunately nothing we pressed on the controller affected the drones activity so not entirely sure what happened there :/ We have a new one now and are being extra careful and have DJI Care insurance coverage :) We are in West Cork and plan to travel along the copper coast after the WAW. Sad to finish it to be honest!! Take care, have a great Sunday!
What a beautiful beach ⛱️ it would be so quiet there absolute bliss ❤️
It was so lovely there, so quiet and the water was beautifully clear
Look forward to your adventures, inspiring me to hit the road soon 👏
Hello Katherine, woohoo so glad you are inspired! hope you can hit the road soon!
