    I have watched every uma video a lot of them multiple times. I am a 73 year old living in and rebuilding a 50 year old 14 by 70 ft. trailer house outside of fairbanks alaska. Most of my building materials are second-hand bought off Craigslist. Every time I get discoraged I watch one of your boat work videos and go back to work. So far I have cut my heat cost to 1/3 and while not pretty it looks better and I am proud of it.

    This is one of your mellowest (and silliest) episodes, but that left me space to realise something. You're doing this while you're young, breaking free of the grind while you can still find delight in the simplest things. People, adventure and experience while you're young. Build it into your lives before you stodgily decide you can afford it easily, you've worked hard enough, or you're just tired and retired.

    About the chicken's you see here and there on the walls of Brest ... It started in 2013 as a joke between two areas of Brest, one having people nicknamed "Chicken Robbers" and after too many drinks, they started painting them all over ... The tradition stayed and it is now even exported around the world by some people travelling ... So, keep your eyes open when visiting other ports in other countries, you might see some more

    The pastry shown at 1:29 is a "galette de roi" whihc is usually only sold for a few weeks following Christmas. Is that when this was recorded? The shop visited, Paul, is described by Wikipedia as "a French chain of bakery-café restaurants found in 47 countries ". They even have stores in USA. Sorry you couldn't find a more authentic bakery.

    • @rogerstone3068
      @rogerstone3068 2 года назад

      That wasn't a gallette des rois, it was a pain au raisin, which is apparently locally renamed for the escargot resemblance. As a pain au raisin, however, that one looked a little overdone to me; they should be paler, and very soft. Probably better from a small backstreet boulangerie, rather than a big grocery chain.

As far as the wood stack in the woods, people use that sort of set up to dry the wood before using it (fire, charcoal making or wood crafts). The wood we use for firewood has to be air dried for a year or it would not light...it might light eventually but then it sizzles and pops with lots of sparks. Just a thought.

    Brest seems to have a massive untapped opportunity for amazing tidal power generation. Once constructed they get constant base electrical power indefinitely with almost no maintenance. For example, dig a culvert to carry the tidal pressure to some area in which you can construct a kilometer square of pond floater pump system if you cannot do so within the mariner. They can also turn those floating docks into floater pumps...

That or one of those folding shopping carts that are so common in Europe. And the reason they’re so common is people will walk to the store and then have to carry all those bags back and it’s easier to pull a small cart then carry a bunch of bags. Oh by the way in regards to the forest chickens I think the salsa slipped off the cracker on that one.

    Those little pictures everywhere.... are they Chicken Brests??
    I went to Brest in the mid 90s in my 1936 Austin 7 car. Drove from Essex, England. Lovely area, Brittany. Especially the north coast with the pink granite rocks.

    So shortly you tackle the Bay of Biscay. Time for Uma me to have a little care and attention to tighten up the squeaks and creaks. And maybe give her hull a haircut?

    Time to watch the new Step! What an interesting mix of activities! It gave me a very good feeling for Brest. ; - D And it was odd that the circus had a sailing ship theme. ? ? ? Since Dan is Canadian, maybe he knows some French? Oh, and wasn't Haiti once a French Colony? So, are either of you good with the French language?

      The circus was "ocean" theme...and it is Brittany, so of course it's sailing themed.
      Also Kika is fluent in French and I (Dan) can get by when needed.

      And for the painted chickens, it's an artist called Jean-Yves Le Fourn, his performance is called "Brest-Métropoule" (Poule = chiken in French). For more google is our friend! 😉😁😘
