      Spent the first few weeks of this trip traumatised 😂. Im jesting - we loved it ! Although I have to say that I was genuinely frightened in this particular episode as I have never heard wind like it or the van shake so much in my life - ever. It was sinister ! 😱 jane ☺️

    We like our static caravan but it's nice to have the flexibility with the van too. The caravan is a quick 60 minute away last minute escape on a Friday.
    We do like us a cheese and pickle butty.
    Wow that storm was brilliant.

    • @getawaygeese
      @getawaygeese  3 місяці тому +1

      Yeah that’s a nice distance do you feel away but easy just to pack up and go there when you feel like it
      Thanks for watching

      I've never experienced a storm like it. The sound was like nothing I've ever heard before and was genuinely concerned Harry would be rolling down the hill 😱 Jane ☺️

    Crikey the storm was very scary. Jane, a tip from Early Retirement Wanderlust ( I think) travel with a pot of fresh growing mint to keep your campervan smelling fresh 😊 ❤ xx

    Oh how I remember those storms, we were in Scottish highlands at the time. It was frightening wasn’t it! Em 💜

    • @getawaygeese
      @getawaygeese  3 місяці тому

      Yes this one caught us out and was worse than Ishla or whatever it was called - mind you we secretly like them just not at the time

    That looks really frightening !!! And you HAD to leave us with a "cliffhanger" didn't you😂 At least we know you and Harry survived as you've posted this - phew. It's scary being at the mercy of the elements - which storm was this ? Seems powerful enough to have a name 💙🦋

    • @getawaygeese
      @getawaygeese  3 місяці тому

      Well I go t know if the storm had a name as hence it caught us out I just think we’re in a wind tunnel up the valley
      Scary but also weirdly memorable
      Thanks for watching

    Port Stewart looked a bit posh! Nice spot for a pitstop for your dinner. I love a bit of cheese and pickle but not a fan of cottage cheese.
    I love choppy, winter seas, they're mesmerising. I think my eye is constantly on the weather app, it's the joys of being in the UK!
    I hate being in the wind in Raymond, it's horrible, you feel like the van could literally get ripped off the chassis. I changed my skylights that popped up like that, they do seem like they could pull off.

    • @getawaygeese
      @getawaygeese  3 місяці тому +1

      Secretly think I enjoy a good storm after surviving it - maybe not so in the middle of it
      The beach walk was brilliant in face to say - blew the cobwebs away
      Thanks for watching - hope your all well

    Blimmin' windy innit!
    That castle looked nice. Apparently Gary Moore did an instrumental of it called Dunluce part 1 and 2! So I'm told!!!! 😉
    And is also in the video OUT IN THE FIELDS by Gary Moore and Phil Lynott! So I'm told as well! 😂
    Take care!

      That’s Castlerock for you. We have a caravan in Castlerock - and it’s very windy. But Gortmore viewpoint!!! Very exposed. I wouldnt like to camp up there. Sometimes you can’t see your finger before you. 😱

    I don't understand how the skylight doesn't fly off as you drive down the motorway at 120 klm if it's that flimsy!!

    • @getawaygeese
      @getawaygeese  3 місяці тому +1

      I suspect it won’t it’s more the fear of it coming off - I have seen stories of them blowing off and I think driving forwards at 70mph with a cowling on the front pushes it down like a racing car wing - side gusts feels more unstable
      But like I say it’s more your own fear

    To think when that beautiful castle was built must of been a good few minutes walk to the cliff edge to what it is now, such a shame when the walls finally erode, love the vlogs 👍

    • @getawaygeese
      @getawaygeese  3 місяці тому

      Glad you enjoyed it - hopefully they can secure the erosion as it was such a dramatic location
