  • Still exploring #England!!
    Welcome back to our channel, England is still in lockdown so we are staying local.
    Today we are visiting Surrey to have a look around the Waverley Abbey ruins, and of course we stop off at a local cafe to try a hot chocolate.
    Waverley Abbey in Surrey was the very first monastery founded in #Britain by the reforming Cistercian religious order. A small group of monks from France settled in this quiet spot by the River Wey in 1128, and Waverley soon became the springboard for Cistercian settlement in southern England.

    What I love about these ruined places is that they keep a mystery in them, and they allow us to imagine a distant life between these walls.

    Hey Ben and Reanne from Houston, Texas, USA! It amazes me how buildings built centuries ago are still standing...well, at least parts of them! I love old buildings, their history, and, try to visualize how they were in their heyday! Lost your drone lately???? Lol! Just messin’ with ya’! “You’re not in the video!”...so funny, Reanne!

But, at least we’re not ticketed $1000USD for traveling to ‘non-essential’ locations.

    Experience climbing in trees after looking for drones lost on big trees! 😂
    That was a beautiful tree and loved the monastery!!! You guys have so many beautiful architectural and historical places to visit!!! 👍
    After crashing the drone I will always be a little bit scary to fly it again! 😅 (well seeing Vlad flying it 😉)
    “So basically is not a cake” 😂😂😂 too many vegan substitutes! 🤦‍♀️ 😂 At least great that the hot chocolate was good! ☺️🤗 Thank you for this scene, always enjoy them!
    Thanks for sharing!
    Btw didn’t understand much about the lockdown. Is it the end of it there?
    See you around and happy weekend! 😎🤗

    Another great adventure and never been to Waverley Abbey, I do however remember that scene from the film 30 days later. Almost thought you was climbing that tree to get your drone back again lol.

    man they really knew what they were doing in the 11th century, eh? that tree was really neat but I didn't see a monkey.. I saw Spiderman again... It looked really windy but the Mini 2 seemed to handle it well. I crashed my drone again a couple days ago... lol Oh, and I've had biscuits here in the US... Was that a wooden fork? weird I've seen wooden spoons before but not a fork. PS. I think you could have easily flown the drone through that opening.... lol.... Great video, guys... Keep up the good work and enjoy the lockdown lift! God bless... Kevin

      They definitely know how to build. I wonder if modern buildings will still stand 900 years from now. I can’t believe you have never seen a woooden fork there everywhere here!
