      @G58 Год назад

      There’s so much to see and do in that area, you do indeed need a lot more time. When I did Robin Hood’s Bay for instance (about 2 hours south of where you ended this one, I spent the entire day on the cliff walk above watching the sea lions, fossil hunting on the beach, and devouring fish and chips. Unless your clutch is 100%, don’t risk driving down to the beach, you probably won’t get back up!!
      Awesome views in this episode. Enjoyed your goofiness.

    Hey guys, I honestly believed that you couldn't have topped your last travel journey videos. However you have managed to turn a trip around Northumberland into a video that surpassed the experience of watching a sunrise over Everest! I think you don't realise just how good you are. The drone footage, the accompanying music (especially of Sycamore Gap) was mesmerising. Seriously, thank you, that was a great video. I still think you are both as mad as a box of frogs for the sea swimming! Stay safe you two. Thank you.

    The Tees, Wear and Tyne Valleys are all beautiful, as are the Yorkshire Dales and the Cheviot hills. Honestly guys, take your own advice, slow down - take your time, there's loads to see and do - the Northumberland coast is worth a week from Newcastle up to Berwick and still onwards into Eyemouth, Coldstream, Peebles etc

    What a wonderful film of a brilliant part of the country. We have family in Northumberland and often manage to visit. Lindisfarne and Bamburgh are spectacular as you so clearly show. I didn't realise there was a Northumberland 250 even after all of our trips there! Brilliant stuff!!

Lovely star shots of yours too... Try the Forest of Bowland for another great location and also great for dark skies!

    Hi Isabel and Tom
    Loved your Northumberland trip, we go there a lot in the van as its not too far away. They do an amazing music festival at Lindisfarne at the end of August too. Hope you might pop into Coldingham and St Abbs on your way north, that's where I live, lots of history here and interesting places to visit.
    Happy travels
    Dianne❤️

    Lovely following the trip round Northumberland. The thing about Hadrian’s Wall is that it was designed/needed to keep the ‘Revolting’ English Tribes in as much as keeping the Picts/Scots out! If you liked the Northumberland Coast element you should try a drive along the North Norfolk Coast from ‘Hun-ston’ (Hunstanton) to Hays-bruh (Happisburgh) followed by a trip round The Broads, but a boat would be better than a Van! English written version in brackets! Lookout for the Easterly ‘Lazy Winds”, goes straight through you in stead of round, they have come from the Urals after all.

    • @LostInTransit
      @LostInTransit  Год назад

      Well the English aka the anglo Saxons didn’t arrive into Britain until about 500 AD. Kinda crazy that this wall has been here longer than the English! Would love to get down to Norfolk and explore down there, and by boat sounds extra cool.

      @@LostInTransit Yes 'British' is the correct description of the Tribes in the Roman Times, but the shorthand of 'England' gives the Geographical description of their area of origin. They were inveterate 'Revolters' in one area or another during the whole Roman 'occupation'.
