  • We are touring Ireland heading for the Wild Atlantic Way in our 25 year old classic motorhome called Herman. In this video, we visit the Rock of Cashel, Kilrush, Carrigaholt Bay, Loop Head and Kilkee Cliffs. We get given some fresh mackerel and cook up a feast for two.

    mackerel looked good especially as you never had a filleting knife ,fish is always best straight from the sea ,and the scenery is wonderful ,

    Went with van 3 years ago and after a stay with friends in Donegal went to Cashel on the way south. Can’t think of many days when it didn’t rain. also struggled to find open sites at this time of year but still a beautiful place.

    Hi Ads Zoe, fresh Mackerel is my favourite fish, I prepare it by cutting off the head, gut and wash the fish, then get a frying pan hot with a little cooking oil and fry one side then turn over to the other side until cooked, serve on plate, pull tail fin to remove spine and most of the bones, it's easier than filleting, because I can't do it, great Vlog, look forwards to the rest of your tour of Ireland, Regards Bob

    We have yet to take our van to Ireland, it's on the agenda one day. However, we have visited the Rock Of Cashel where I experienced something I'd only ever heard about and never thought it possible. There were gale force winds and as I walked through an archway I had just exhaled. The sideways wind was so strong that I was not able to inhale no matter how I tried to force myself. It lasted a few seconds and was quite enjoyably scary. I had to step backward behind the wall to then inhale. I've been to some windy places in my time but Cashel literally took my breath away.

    The scenery looked beautiful. I don’t think I would be able to stand so near to the edge. Steve would have loved the mackerel I think I’d only have a taste. 😂 Take care Gill

    So far your Atlantic Way trip looks stunning. even with the weather, it just adds to it. When you where looking at Lovers Leap I was just wished I was there in my Sea Kayak exploring it from the sea as it looks very impressive by the drone shots.

    • @HermanHitstheRoad
      @HermanHitstheRoad  9 місяців тому

      It was all impressive, @DiggerBuckett. The weather changed again the next day and the next. That gap is wide enough for a kayak probably too many crashing waves though

      @@HermanHitstheRoadThe sea didn’t look too bad. There are some that will play in very rough conditions, but they are well and truly above my skill level at the moment. I have played on rocky islets in Scotland where the sea state was similar to how it looked on your foot, that was on a sit on top that are much more stable than my sea kayak is. The stability in those comes from the paddlers skill level.
