I wish I had a video camera when I was 'coming of age' in Brisbane back in the 90s to document how things were ... so I'm capturing how things are now that may be of interest in 30-40 years time ... ?

🇦🇺 Chatswood To IKEA Tempe (8-May-2024)
Просмотров 1403 месяца назад
Driving from Chatswood (Mantra Hotel) to IKEA at Tempe (near the Sydney airport) and back. The route takes in the Pacific Highway, Epping Road, Centennial Avenue, the Gladesville Bridge, Drummoyne, Victoria Road, the Iron Cove Bridge and then the Westconnex M8 tunnel to St. Peters. The Westconnex M8 toll from Rozelle to St. Peters was AU$4.80 each way. Paid AU$2.29/L for 98 RON.

{Video is in Finnish/Video on suomeksi} In memory of my dear Finnish friend Mirka Mäkinen who passed away in 2023 after battling cancer from 2010.

A drive west from the Melbourne CBD out to Mt. Helen, near Ballarat via the West Gate Bridge and the M8 Western Freeway. It takes about 1½ hours to cover the 130km. We take the Gordon exit shortly before Ballarat so we can drive along the massive wind turbines.

🇦🇺 Tugun Bypass Tunnel Confusion (12-Jan-2024)
Просмотров 2,1 тыс.7 месяцев назад
I thought this was mildly interesting - despite everything I could see, the tunnel signs were requiring us to stop on the motorway, even though traffic was obviously flowing through it with no issue. We were using Google Maps which also indicated traffic flowing at expected speed, no orange slowdowns or red stops. Traffic had slowed from 100km/hr as required, no doubt as people tried to interpr...
🇦🇺 Woodburn (NSW) After The Bypass (12-Jan-2024)
Просмотров 2497 месяцев назад
Woodburn was one of those "bottlenecks" on the Pacific Highway, always busy with people stopping for lunch so we never stopped there, deciding to stop in Ballina (before it was bypassed) instead. The bypass has obviously made it a much quieter town but with the loss of some business unfortunately, including the petrol station. There is, however, still a Liberty petrol station just before you le...

Viaje a Tahitiano varias veces en la decada de los 80, despues de ver este video se que el Tahiti que yo conoci ya no existe, que pena!!
Amazing video! Did you drive up to the green valley in Puna'auia? Video has been so helpful as I’m renting a car when I’m there and I’m from the UK so good to learn the roads! Thanks again!
Nice day out Brfff. Thanks for the free tour. Hope to do the same in the not too distant future.
Thanks Brfff. When I get over there I will definitely drive around the whole island and check out all these little interests. Richard from Sydney.
You sound like me when I'm talking to myself. I'm 64. My 35yo son takes me on death marches just like this, every so often. Definitely won't be doing this one when I eventually get there.
I enjoyed your journey. I hope to get there myself within a couple of years. I have saved this journey, a shopping tour and a few others, one of which is the entire trip around the island. Also saved a Moorea tour as well. Thanks Brfff.
Beautiful looking Tahiti and looks big enough too

Oh wow, I didn't realise!
Wow ahh e rave
J’aime beaucoup. On ne voit pas de SDF qui dort au bord de route...c’est propre
Tout le monde semblait globalement heureux. Je ne me suis jamais senti en danger ou importun. Everyone seemed generally happy. I never felt unsafe or unwelcome.
Thanks so much for going up Day Street West Albury, it brought back so many beautiful memories of Christmas Dinners at Gran and Poppy Brown's and all of my relatives who also lived in the street?
Thanks for your comment, I'm glad it brought back nice memories. I was thinking the other day about the trips we used to take from Logan (south of Brisbane) to Bribie Island to visit my Nan & Pop in the 80s. Wish I'd captured more memories back then - I do have a snippet of video when I visited from Europe (living in Finland at the time) in 1999 ... kangaroos on the Bribie golf course.
helo
Thankyou for that Albury video. It's changed a bit since when I grew up there. It's different but very much the same. Thankyou.
You're very much welcome!
Le beau ruban de bitume.......
OK, OK... avec le recul, j'aurais dû d'abord inclure une vidéo des cascades! OK, OK ... in hindsight, I should've included some video of the waterfalls first!
Fantastic video! A virtual tour of the island.
Thanks Joel. A beautiful island and wonderful people. /Brett
BTW Joel, I appreciate you taking the time to make a comment - this is my 2nd channel so I've not checked it lately (I mainly do retro-computer-nerd stuff) and as of 20-Apr-2024: 3885 views 58 likes (100% ... phew) 6 comments ... 🥹 So, I appreciate you taking the time to give some feedback 👍
You mentioned shopping bags. Does the supermarket not provide one and so you have to provide your own when you go shopping?
Your camera is too low and aimed too high. Put it on a mount on your roof and aim it down a little. Other than that, yeah, good.
@@BrfffTravels Bonnet would be way way too low. Yes, appreciate the challenges.
Wow it all different since I've been up that way ....have a great day thank you for sharing
In nearly 40 years had green lights all the way once,l thought the bray st. lights the last ones would get you.
Some very fancy video editing here. To go all the way through town and catch every green light bar two.
How to see the real Australia with a go pro camera. No one actually talks to you. At a bus stop on a Sunday.
This depicts the insanity of our Australian motoring public in 2024
WTF?
Après les études j’y veux déménager.
C'est un beau pays plein de gens formidables! It’s a beautiful country full of wonderful people!
Your video makes me dizzy 😵
Ahhh, sorry. I'm still quite shy about filming in public so I try to be discrete ... people look at you and wonder why you're filming a boring supermarket. I will try to do better!
I will just watch this in the background to relax.
That's exactly what I was aiming for ;)
J'ai beaucoup aimé votre vidéo, c'est normal que j'aime c'est ma capitale Papeete Tahiti. Merci pour le partage ❤
For those first time travellers coming from the airport this is a boring way to see and enter Melbourne for the first time. A more scenic route is to get off the Hume Freeway and get onto the Western Ring Road. Head west along that. It will take you into the city. Along the way you will view the cityscape. When closer you will cross the Westgate Bridge and have stunning views of the city skyscrapers, parks, the Yarra and Maribynong Rivers, the Docklands and the huge, beautiful Port Phillip Bay and beaches and distant mountain ranges.
Thanks for the advice! I was actually coming from Port Macquarie (the day before), or more directly Albury that morning. I'm driving down again to Melbourne tomorrow, via Albury again. I'll see if I can try your route out - I've been wanting to capture some of the Westgate Bridge, and the roadworks. /Brett {Edited: wrote "actually" too many times}
Sad to see that signage in Australia can be as stupid as the US.
Typical Aussie driver 😂
Didnt you see the plane in the tunnel, the roads people did.
At worst, you could have pull over to the shoulder (having had plenty of warning) and called 131940, SE Queensland's traffic monitoring centre, to inform them of the conflicting information regarding the tunnel. If there there was an incident (*and you cannot see the exit of this tunnel from the entrance or the sign) and you came across it - like a vehicle on fire, or even emergency workers on the road rescuing someone from a vehicle entrapment and you hit one of them, you would have equally been liable. If everyone was going through a red traffic light because they are too stupid and impatient to do so, would you as well? I certainly wouldn't.
Except you wouldn't be liable. That yellow led sign isn't a Uniform Traffic Control Device. If those red lights were on, then he would be liable. But they weren't. This tunnel had no actual legal signage directing drivers to stop.
So glad I saw this!!!! I've been meaning to go back and visit SEQ since I was last there in 2021, and I've been curious to see how the construction on the Pacific Motorway have been progressing since then. Thanks for sharing!! :)
No worries ... I wish I had a 4K GoPro back in the 90s to capture the drive down from Logan/Brisbane to the GC ... an incredible difference to today. Just trying to capture something to compare with in a few decades when the roadworks are a dim memory. /Brett
Great video thanks Your correct about the road works I don’t think I’ve ever drivin on the same piece of M1 / pacific Hwy bitumen ever Also interesting to see where the exits are NOW haven’t been up to our holiday units at Broad Beach since we were locked out QLD Going up again in July
It's Australia, nothing makes sense in this country.
I remember living through the M1 upgrades living near Helensvale. It took a long time but it was well worth it.
The tunnel was not requiring you to stop, you only have to stop if the red light is on, which it was not. And to answer your question, yes, you would be liable as no actual directive to stop had been issued.
A ten foot high "STOP" sign would make me want to stop! What a stuff up.
Ah so is this how stop signage works?
@@tedsmith6137 While, yes, the sign should not have said stop, that sign is not a statutory stop sign. For it to be one of those it'd need to be a red octagon. Or those traffic lights would have to be red.
@@alexd.1091 Yes. That sign was not a statutory stop sign. Here, you'd only stop at red octagonal stop signs, and red traffic lights.
@@user-no9js5sk5c I am not wrong. On the road, only Uniform Traffic Control Devices carry a legislative power to direct road users to do something. I.e., simply seeing the word "stop" written does not mean you must stop by law. If you saw a red octagonal sign with a white outline and white capital letters reading "STOP" then you must stop. The point I'm making is there are certain signs and lights used to direct drivers. Some are statutory, meaning it is an offence to disregard them. And some are only advisory. Where it it's merely a suggestion and it's up to the driver to decide. The orange led light board is advisory only. This tunnel is fitted with red traffic lights and a statutory sign that says "stop here on red signal." If the tunnel wanted you to stop, those lights would be red.
Красиво, Таити❤
Looks so beautiful- I really hope to visit someday
Estonia has developed a lot since then.
Oh yes, I imagine it has! Hopefully this is a little snapshot of how it was ... if I remember it was 25 Krooni for a pint of beer. Always enjoyed visiting Tallinn. /Brett
Kiitos. Thank you from Viiburg (Russia)
Paratiisi 🇫🇮💙🤍🇪🇪
That water turned to steam pretty quickly. Makes you wonder why they would mess around with windmills.
Looks like it was a lovely trip!
Is there a way to get inside the bridge? @6:33
We would ge that "rotten" ice on the creek where we learned how to skate. You would fall through to the solid ice about a 1/2" below the rotten stuff. Made skating a chore. Estonia is lovely. :)
Really enjoyed your video. It’s good how you showed the prices as well for all the important stuff like alcohol 😂We definitely will be heading to Carrefour. Thank you!
RUclips algorithm bring me here. You were making vlogs before it became mainstream. Very sweet couple. How many years have you been together?
