    To echo a number of other comments here you have once again managed to present a great selection of music, I “Shazmed” a few of the tracks you’ve used and put them on one of my playlists. Ken you continue to expand your skills with regard to gathering ‘B’ footage, loved the footage to ‘Old Harry Rocks’ it was top class and very enjoyable. Once again you make me so home sick for my home county. The south coast looks so beautiful and it’s nice to see something of my home other than inner city madness, the most stunning part of the UK is of course the Lake District/Cumbria, I might be biased as it will always be my home :)
    Love your videos, the two of you do them with such a friendliness, so keep up supplying a bit of the good part of Blighty for the world to enjoy and with any luck the UA-cam algorithm will pick up your blogs and throw it out to the masses.
    Looking forward to part two:)

    1) The 17th May is the National Day of Norway :-)
    2) I like the awning you made - looks simple and effective.
    3) The burgers looked good - And the stew. Comfort food is important although not good for the wasteline.
    4) Remember the age old Norwegian saying "There is no such thing as bad weather, only bad clothing". It's always sunny above the clouds. When you get to Norway there will be many cloudy days and many with rain so bring that stiff upper lip and British stoicism and you'll be just fine in the north. You must think positively and not let dreary weather get you down. You must dress to the conditions and stay active and get out there and do things in less than sunny weather.

    Fun video... I really enjoyed to see how that property has been converted into a super cool camping facility... it reminds me of some of the bigger "resorts" or "rv parks" here in the States... It was also nice to see how others customize their camper... I really think the attachment that the white van would be something that would really work for my style... and idea how much more space that attachment adds to their van?

    Okay, wonderful video and with all of the driving you both do, I think I am ready to take a driver's test. I would however need a bit more work on the circles! I noted you stopped for a drink as you were driving. In my part of Virginia that would be a Wawa Store that has everything you might ever want to drink or eat. It is near impossible to drive past a Wawa without hoping that someone in the car as a need to stop! The Romany style Trailers were interesting and affordable. Nice to see many folks beginning to feel comfortable walking maskless and SMILING! Now Ken, I do need to take you to task on only one aspect of your video. How could both of you pass up the opportunity to take a bit of a walk on that small white cliff trail to obtain a photo? At the very least, you could have sent Carol.

      We would not use one as we prefer to stealth camp. It is a good option if you are staying on campsites with no facilities but you would need to be careful in high winds.
