KENILWORTH / WE DO A PODCAST / HIDDEN VALLEY, YANDINA (PART 2) - 009

[@markjones8704]

Plantains, I lived in South Florida for many years before moving back to Australia and they are best fried. Really popular in Miami and throughout the Caribbean. Best recipe I ever had them in was Puerto Rico where they make a dish out of them called Mofongo👍

[@BigOzExplorers]

We still have a couple left too, I’ll have to look it up! 😀

[@emmylou.]

Glad I stumbled across you guys last week, I'm all up to date, loving the content :)

[@BigOzExplorers]

Naww that’s awesome to hear! Glad your enjoying it!! We have plenty more to come as the weeks go by 😍 keep a look out on Sunday afternoons 😁

[@NoMossNomads]

Beautiful footage. Jack is soo cute! How fun is hiking and rotating a baby on each hip 😂 Nice 4x4 driving Sian, go girl!

[@BigOzExplorers]

My back is still shot from that one day of walking with him and no carrier!! Jack is now Chris’s responsibility when he has to be carried until my back gets better lol 🤣 Thanks for watching, we’re catching up on yours tonight! 🥰

[@northstormbags]

Awesome work guys! Loved every second of it! Can’t wait to see more. Safe travels. Lisa & Marc ✌🏼

[@BigOzExplorers]

Thanks guys! 😍

[@stuartbeaumont1]

Another great video. These guys make fantastic touring videos.

[@BigOzExplorers]

Thanks so much! We’re trying to give people what they want and improving every day 😁😁

[@karenedwards8946]

Very lucky people, that is my dream to do what you guys are doing, love watching 👍

[@BigOzExplorers]

Thanks for following Karen! Hopefully we’ll see you out here one day! 🗺 ❤️

[@Davi.b]

Yeah nice vid, was thinking sooner or later u will be close to or in a gold field as you travel, under no pressure as you travel, the chance to find some gold is very real, food for thought, you guys are pleasure to watch, lots more to come, I'm sure, let me know if my suggestion has interest, Davi b

[@BigOzExplorers]

We were out Emerald way a couple of weeks ago (coming soon on YT) and we did some planning, has been great fun for us big kids, just want to keep going back and trying for more 😂

[@johnmettam1573]

Great videos, keep them coming

[@BigOzExplorers]

Thanks John! 🥰

[@anthonypurdy9347]

Great work as always guys

[@BigOzExplorers]

Thank you! 🙌🏻

[@thepappas5732]

A little tip for when you’re on your trip. Buy a sealable bucket/drum. Fill it with dirty clothes and add your detergent. Strap it to your 4wd before you drive around for the day exploring. Replace water on your way home for a rinse cycle. Spin dry when back at camp. Enjoy

[@BigOzExplorers]

We keep hearing this but are yet to try it!! We’re going to have to I think!

[@dagsbouch]

That looked like a nice place to stay.

[@BigOzExplorers]

Was a mint spot, highly recommend the location and the owners 🙌🏻❤️

[@chuckberry7692]

Live life!🤘👍🇦🇺🍻🔥

[@BigOzExplorers]

Live every day like your last hey 🙌🏻 🇦🇺

[@munecito]

Platanos! I didn't even know someone in the coast had them. I'll have to visit them. I live up in Mapleton. Plantain is the best. We eat it a lot in Venezuela. Ripe and oven baked are the best. You need a South American to teach you how to cook them. You are almost making me cry cooking them like that. 🤣🤣🤣🤣 When they are ripe you don't need to put honey they are really sweet on their own.

[@BigOzExplorers]

We were cooking blind and have never even seen them before this location!! We hope to run into someone like yourself who can show us what to do properly... sorry we made you cry 😂😂 they were Still amazing though, we would have them again in a heartbeat 😍🥰❤️

[@munecito]

@@BigOzExplorers Let us know with some notice when and if you are back around Mapleton or Yandina so I get some to let them get ripe and bake them for you. I only cried a little bit. Then I got really happy to know there are plantain plants around here. It saves me a drive down to Inala.

[@munecito]

@@BigOzExplorers I just thought I should give you a heads up if you liked plantain. There is something called Saba Banana. You can find them frozen in Asian or Indian or Fijian grocers. It is another species of banana. You can put them 6 minutes in a microwave or 25 minutes in an oven. Or wrap them in foil and chuck them in the coals for a little while. They are sweet in flavour and go well with Mozarella, cream cheese or simply buttter. BTW, we are picking up a whole bunch of plantains from Hidden Valley on Monday. Thanks for putting that in the video.

[@shanemeng8892]

Hi, where did you get the socket for the stabilisers (for an impact driver) Cheers.

[@BigOzExplorers]

We got that one from tradetools, it’s a 19mm long socket. You can buy online from them and have it shipped if your having trouble or no one nearby has one ☺️ www.tradetools.com/product-range/hand-tools/sockets-and-acc/renegade-industrial-19mm-wheel-nut-socket www.tradetools.com/product-range/hand-tools/sockets-and-acc/force-3-4-std-impact-socket

[@shanemeng8892]

@@BigOzExplorers cheers. I’ll get one. Nice work guys. I hand it to ya. I’m jealous. Thanks for the reply.

[@LiquidAntler]

Nice video guys!

[@BigOzExplorers]

Thanks mate!

[@MATT_MAC]

Hey guys love the videos. Where did you get the tray from on the ranger? Looking at getting one of the renegade canopys too after seeing yours 🤙🏼

[@BigOzExplorers]

That’s awesome, glad your enjoying our content! If you do go Renegade you won’t regret it, they are just awesome! With the tray, it’s just easier to send the link, this is our exact tray with the canopy on it 😁 www.ozutetrays.com.au/1800l-x-1855w-dual-cab-flat-deck-tray

[@MATT_MAC]

Big Oz Explorers thanks legends! Keen to see how it all goes for you. All the best!

[@davetrendell8841]

I only stumbled across your page the other day. I'm so glad I did. Keep up the great work! One question, though... What program do you use for your video editing? I was trying a while ago to do editing for KZbin uploading with the stock GoPro app, but found that it took absolutely forever to upload them once I'd finished editing them.

[@BigOzExplorers]

Thanks for joining the tribe, hope we continue to keep you entertained 😁 We use Adobe Premiere Pro and used to use iMovie before learning this... some of the stock programs you get can be temperamental and have limited settings to optimise for online uploads etc... Chris has tried using the GoPro phone app and had multiple issues and I found the computer one wasn’t much better... do you run a Mac? Definitely try iMovie! And maybe reduce the footage size if recording with GoPro to 2.7 or 1080p for easier editing, it will save smaller files and load quicker etc etc

[@davidmoriarty2314]

Loving the new content! You’ll end up killing your stabilisers if you keep using the impact driver, use a drill instead. Keep up the good work.

[@BigOzExplorers]

Thanks for the advice! We were given this product as it’s a multi use tool and suitable for torque/twisting force rather than drilling! 👍🏻

[@chrisbryant6844]

Where was that jerky stall I’m on the sunny coast and have never seen it before

[@BigOzExplorers]

Hey Chris, here is a link, it’s just outside of Kenilworth :) facebook.com/The-Cart-108926747407494/

[@Davi.b]

No drones in any national parks, some councils require permits, if you would like to apply for certain areas

[@BigOzExplorers]

Yeah it’s such a funny subject depending on the location... we research before we fly each time to make sure we’re not breaking the rules! Main course cerns are heliports and unmanned airports. As long as it’s recreational purposes though, you do not need a permit to use a drone in Queensland's National Parks as long as it weighs under 2kg and there are less than 10 people involved in the film shoot (i.e. the crew) and no buildings or structures being filmed! 🙌🏻😍

[@Davi.b]

@@BigOzExplorers now I've got to ask, were did you get your removable saucepan from in how much?

[@zoezoe610]

Thanks

[@BigOzExplorers]

Hope you enjoyed it 😁

[@thepappas5732]

Seriously Jack, you were zero help on that walk. Lead zeppelin:)

[@BigOzExplorers]

🤣🤣🤣

[@andreaa1056]

Washing tip - eliminate pyjamas by dressing them in the next days clothing.

[@BigOzExplorers]

That’s actually not such a bad idea at all!! 💡 thank you! ❤️

[@Denis-zb5pf]

First time seen anyone cutting a bunch like that, quite obvious certainly not for market.

[@BigOzExplorers]

Definitely not for market, they are very self sustaining at Hidden Valley growing their own foods and producing their own honey and preserve foods, they were bloody good bananas though 😍

[@benstrachan3418]

Can you do a video on baby sleeping setup and other baby accessories? We’ve just bought a caravan arriving in October. Wife is pregnant due in August. You guys seem to have parenting solved.

[@BigOzExplorers]

We would love to do that, sometimes it’s the simple things we need to show and don’t think to record! We’ve added it to the list (but we are a few weeks behind ourselves with editing) stay tuned! Thanks for getting in touch and following our journey ❤️ oh, and I promise you we are not perfect parents, but thank you! 😜🤦🏼‍♀️ Congrats on bub coming! 🥳

[@wazheamadman6086]

I’m sure I’ll find out with more videos I watch but not long ago you got weighed and on limit and now I see this video of you getting more stuff 😬
