  • After 3 months of vanlife in Scotland it is time to move on. This week sees us embark on a journey over the Celtic Sea. We have a full week seeing some amazing natural wonders all along the coast of Northern Ireland.
    With the most amazing Scottish road trip under our belt it feels like the right time to be embarking on a new adventure. We load La Bamba into a ferry and take her over the waters from Cairnryan in the south-west of Scotland to Larne in Northern Ireland. On arrival we turn right and keep follow the shore. Our first stop in Ireland is Cranny Falls, an impressive waterfall. We drive a little way up the coast and spend the night in Ballycastle, parked up by the beach. the next day we head off to the Dark Hedges, a filming location for Game of Thrones (the King's Road). That night we find another amazing park up on the cliffs over looking yet another stunning beach. Isabel does another day at work and we head off to Ballintoy, another filming location for Game of Thrones (this one was used for the Iron Islands). That night we drive to the village near the Giants Causeway ready to wake up early and find this stunning UNESCO world heritage site in the morning. The Causeway lives up to its fame, we find ourselves here alone and enjoy the power of the waves crashing over the alien landscape. After hiking back to the van we drive off to Mussenden temple, a stunning building perched on the edge of a cliff. At the base of the cliff we find a beach we can drive the van onto, so we decide to enjoy a coffee with sand between our tires. After a short break we drive off to Ness wood to see Northern Ireland's tallest waterfall. With evening drawing in we head for Derry/Londonderry. Here we explore the city and learn about its troubled past before heading into a pub to have our first Guiness on the island of Ireland. That evening we head back to the van to watch Derry Girls and call it a day.
    This is where our jam packed first week of our new series ends.
    Wow we did so much this week, and you can probably tell we are loving our time over here so far.
    If you liked the video please give us a like, it will make Tom smile.
    Next week we cross into the Republic of Ireland and start the absolutely enormous Wild Atlantic Way. Make sure to subscribe because the first county, Donegal, has truly blown us away!
    Thank you all so much for watching and liking. It is so nice chatting with you all in the comments.

    April 26 2023: I have been enjoying your channel and the education that you are bringing us all with the places you have been and going. I sent a bit “coffee $”. Use for coffee, beer or pizza whatever fancy’s you. Isabella you are an amazing cook and the ideas you have with packing your meals on the hikes and stays are going to be duplicated by myself. Stay well..

      Covid what is really going on?
      =======================
      Covid is the SARS-CoV-2 Virus
      But the SARS-CoV-2 Virus has not been purified AND isolated AND genome sequenced end-to-end anywhere in the world.
      Pointless having a Test Swab as there is nothing to compare the test result too.
      PCR Test cannot identify a Virus.
      PCR Test is testing for nucleic acid which we all have in us.
      PCR Test cycled 45 times amplifies the sampe more than 1 trillion times.
      PCR is a process, not a test. "PCR does not verify any disease." Kary Mullis inventor of PCR.
      All PCR test results are invalid.
      Lateral Flow Antigen Test cannot identify a Virus.
      All Lateral Flow Antigen Test results are invalid.
      The only way to identify an individual Virus is a Spectroscopy Test.
      However as the SARS-CoV-2 Virus has not been isolated anywhere in the world there is nothing to compare the Swab Test sample too.
      Thus pointless having a Spectroscopy Test.
      Conclusion -- There is no SARS-CoV-2 airborne Virus.
      Face Mask Contaminated?
      Toxic Ethanol Hand Gel - Graphene?

      Google Image Cows Nasal Vaccine
      Vaccinate cows with a Swab and/or a Nasal Spray
      Test Swab is covert Nasal Vaccination?
      ----
      Pointless having a Test Swab for the SARS-CoV-2 Virus that has not been isolated anywhere in the world.
      Test Swab and Injection contain the Bio-agent.
      Bio-agent is a protein that will change the DNA of every person Test Swabbed and/or Injected.
      People must wake up to what the real agenda is with the airborne Virus that has not been isolated anywhere in the world!

      Face Mask Contaminated -- Graphene
      Hand Gel Contaminated - Graphene
      5G signal can activate the Graphene and shred your lungs from within.
      Face Mask is filling peoples lungs with Graphene.
      5G is a Dual Communication Network and Weapon System.
      5G signal can be focused on a defined area called Beam Forming for example the brain and/or the lungs where the Graphene will accumulate within the body.
      Thus Graphene on the Test Swab and in the Injection and the Contaminated Face Mask enters the body either the brain and/or the lungs and can be activated by the 5G signal at any time.
      Tragically activating the Graphene left inside the body will kill the person.
      Is this all part of the Depopulation plan?

      Pathogenic Protein Bioweapon.
      Cannot provide the exact details of what it is or my comment will be auto-deleted.
      Primer and Catalyst.
      Pathogenic Protein Bioweapon on the Test Swab and in the Injection is the Primer.
      Spike Protein in the Common Cold Virus is the Catalyst threat will activate the Pathogenic Protein Bioweapon.
      Nasal Spray Contaminated With The Common Cold?
      The Common Cold is one of the group of approximately 55 Coronaviruses.
      When people catch the Common Cold over the autumn and winter 2021-2022 Cytokine Storm death within 28 days.
      People must understand how the mRNA escapes the protective lipid once in the body, for the mRNA to attach itself to the ribosomes.
      That's a rather important part.
      If mRNA gets chemically damaged in any way, it can possibly tell your body to make the wrong protein.

    If you end up finishing your travels in the North again, be sure to visit the Ards peninsula in co Down. Its beautiful and you can get a little ferry at the end of it from Portaferry to Strangford. Crawfordsburn is where to start. It has a little of everything with a beautiful beach and forest park with waterfalls, streams, walk ways and architecture. Follow the coast line for spectacular views across to Scotland, there are grand stately houses like Mount Stewart along the way. Another place you won't want to miss is the rock pools near Newcastle...a real gem. Natural rock pools all the way down the mountain big and deep enough to swin in with views of the mountain and sea.

It is really weird to us here because it is one of the most beautiful places you will ever see, anywhere.

      Yeah I can see how people end up parking there, the pin on Park4night is in the wrong place and takes you down there instead.

      Amazing, I love the roof top tents such a cool idea. That's not a bad delivery route!

    As a suggestion- I think there are little word burning stoves you can boil kettles with- rocket stoves? It may save on gas, ie you can use any wood. A possible eco/money saving way. Well done with the charity shop love!

      Brilliant suggestion, we will be keeping our eyes peeled next time we are near a camping shop

      I guess another option although more expensive, but seeing as there is lots of driving etc....battery banks and solar ( or the portable power packs ), as well as charging everything while you drive. Plenty that can boil kettles etc now, operate a microwave and so forth. If it did run flat, gas is still a backup

    Recently discovered this channel. Very interesting and positive. Just a quick query, what is the reason for the small blue barls of gas as oppose to the 11kg yellow calor one's for cooking, etc, is it just to save space?

      Hello, glad you are enjoying the channel. We did had the lager calor gas before, however in Europe the gas cannisters change in almost every country but the small campingaz ones are all over Europe (although slightly harder to find)

    Hi! Just discovered you guys and we are really enjoying your ‘real’ van life experiences. You both are naturals!!!
    We are in the US and considering Ireland as a summer holiday IF all things Covid restrictions allow. We had an acquaintance that lives in Ireland discourage us from a visit because of their perception of conditions, guidelines and limitations for Ireland. Curious what your experience has been. Obviously understanding things could change at any moment but curious to know what your perception has been. Thank you so much!

      Hi Norma, this vid is in Northern Ireland which is part of the UK and has very different restrictions to the Republic and even the rest of the UK. Its worth finding out in Spring cos winter is def not the best time to see Ireland at all cos the weather is atrocious.

      This comment managed to slip passed me, sorry. The way we travel we don't have too much contact with anyone to be honest, so covid hasn't been too much of an issue although the pubs do shut very early now (8).
      I really do hope that by summer most of the restrictions will be gone 🤞either way I wouldn't be booking flights just yet, who knows what will happen. Thanks for your kind message

      The nightlife shuts down at 8pm with current guidelines at the moment. If you were planning on coming I would wait until restrictions aren't as bad as you will have a better trip
