Unexpected Visitors At Helens Bar Beara Peninsular - VANLIFE IRELAND - 18

#Campervan #Ireland #Vanlife #WildCamping #wildatlanticway #waw
We move on from Allihies with the wind overnight being strong and more storm fronts predicted. A day of cruising in Harry our Ford Custom Auto-Camper campervan along the Beara Peninsular where I promise Jane a pub lunch. We find a great honest Helens Bar to accommodate us but we get some unexpected guests that fill the pub. We finally move on to a great offgrid wild parkup.

I think I would have to go back to Ireland and Scotland every year,!👍👍

[@getawaygeese]

Well we are planning a return in the next year or so to do the north west of the country as we loved it so much

[@michaelmoriarty6717]

Yes that was Helen.Have not been back for some years but this video has me wanting to go back.Spent many a good holiday there as she is my first cousin.

[@getawaygeese]

Thanks for letting us know. We so wanted it to be Helen !! It was such a great place. Goad it evoked nice memories and hope you make it back. If so say hello to Helen !! 😊. Jane

[@callysomers919]

Another great vlog! 🤗😂 Thanks very much. 👌 Keep them coming! 😍

[@getawaygeese]

Thank you glad you enjoyed

[@Wizardinthewild]

Hard to see it all without rushing. The road did look a bit narrow. Loved the coloured houses with the grey sky behind. Pleased the weather man was right! Love the head gear! Easy to lose track of the days.

[@getawaygeese]

Yep it’s great sone times just driving in all weathers and soaking in the views Thanks for watching

[@kemperkey5750]

I love youtwo are precious. You remind me of me and my husband. I like your channel. Your a real sweet couple even when your having couple issues. I wish young people could learn from you both. Us older couples choose our battles wisely. Your both very entertaining and sweet and fun.

[@getawaygeese]

Lovely comment and we are real so you see what you get up and down ….. glad you like the channel so many thanks for your comments

[@cathalmccionnaith8268]

Hi Guys, we've been flowing your tips on west cork's best bits....it's been a great guide so far.... currently in Allihies , you'll be glad too know, it's still pissing rain 😁

[@getawaygeese]

Hope you enjoy it as much as we did rain sun or wind lol 😂 thank you for watching

[@irishwolfhound1877]

The beara peninsula looks very beautiful there, great video

[@getawaygeese]

Thanks very pretty and all 5 in the south west have something different

[@olepammy5830]

Tip- you use a mussel shell to pick out the mussels. Much easier. This is the first of your Vlogs I have seen ( sent by Life Is Short) and enjoyed it very much. Chilled and relaxing vibe.

[@getawaygeese]

Thanks for watching and a good tip …. Ken and Carol have a great channel and learnt a lot off them

[@CampervanTales]

Stew will be in fishnets before you know it🤣 Really don't want this series to end. We have enjoyed every ep so far.

[@getawaygeese]

😂 now that would be a sight - thanks for watching - a treat I’m this Fridays episode !!!

[@getawaygeese]

Looking forward to the fishnet reveal 😂 jane

[@LifeistooshortCK]

Really enjoyed that, plenty of laugh out loud moments 🤣 Will have to keep an eye out for that pub if we go back, the food looked amazing. The mussels were huge! Well done coping with that weather and good call to move on for the night with those winds coming. Look forward to seeing where you ended up 😀👍

[@getawaygeese]

Glad you enjoyed and the mussels were large but just had sone twice the size 😉

[@LifeistooshortCK]

@@getawaygeese 😮 x

[@colinblack7049]

Hi Jane &Stew, another great video, I loved the old cars I wish I'd been there to get a longer look. In the old days before pubs opened on a Sunday my pals and me went for a drink in a hotel and then down to the Glasgow barras for a feed of mussels. Delicious.

[@getawaygeese]

Fresh mussels I gave fallen in love with to be honest - thanks for watching and commenting

[@SandVan]

Awesome video guys ❤❤love seeing all the rainy weather 😊🙏it’s too hot here 🥵can’t wait for winter 😀

[@getawaygeese]

Thanks for watching - yep keeping cool in Australia I am sure is a challenge - Jane used to live in o Perth for 10 years and she said it was super hot out there

[@Wheres_wanda_wandering]

Hope you managed to evade the storm. Take care Gill

[@getawaygeese]

I am afraid not we had 48 hours as you will see in the next video - thanks for watching

[@stevecarter8846]

👍👍

[@LorraineG123]

Nice views, pubs, vintage cars, food,especially the black pudding( a bit of red sauce on the side would have topped it off). Great driving Stew, those roads can be so treacherous at times. The winds were really picking up. Thanks for sharing another great video.

[@getawaygeese]

Thanks for watching and above all commenting There is so much going on in Ireland for sure

[@getawaygeese]

Great place wasnt it !! And well done on that swimming 👍 (previous comment) jane ☺️

[@LorraineG123]

@getawaygeese ah bless you Jane, thanks pet. There is always something going on in Ireland, such random things ha ha.

[@stevecarter8846]

Nice one guys and the Ken look was a cracker🤣🤣

[@getawaygeese]

Thanks for watching glad you liked it

[@atcautoelec]

Such a fun video guys despite the weather! Always a smile to be had cheers.

[@getawaygeese]

Glad you enjoyed thanks for watching

[@vanessagardiner7663]

Very enjoyable episode - despite the stormy weather, it's still such a beautiful coastline.

[@getawaygeese]

Thanks - we love all weathers to be honest we always say you have to see a place in all seasons

[@sharronmiles1759]

Had to laugh, we've got one of those blankets. We got ours in Majorca about 20 year's ago too. It's also in our van 🤣🤣

[@getawaygeese]

Jane takes the mickey out of me as I spent a fortune at the time as was talked into it my a good salesperson - but I have to say that freebie blanket is the best lol 😂

[@johnarmstrong4015]

great video again, the bird of prey was a Kestrel. Fantastic wee spot for overnights even with the wind. Many thanks for sharing.ATB

[@getawaygeese]

Thanks for watching and also on the bird spotting as I keep trying to learn

[@lindao1327]

Great, funny video! ‘Are we that couple who finishes each other’s sentences’? That’s me and my hubby too! Take care guys!

[@getawaygeese]

We are getting worse at it 😂 thanks for watching

[@cosudu3002]

I really love watching your videos and wish they didn't end so soon 🙂. I even love watching the rain while you two are in your van.

[@getawaygeese]

Aw thanks for that - that sort of comment keeps us going as we put a lot of effort in

[@mos8176]

Love Helens Bar what was Teddy Sullivan's who I am related to. Such a beautiful place ❤️

[@getawaygeese]

It was a little jewel of a place that gave us a great memory - thanks for watching

[@michaelmoriarty6717]

You must remember my Aunt Joan as well.we probably bumped into each other on holidays

[@markwhiting3103]

Blimey that was a smidge windy! Still loving your vlogs, keep up the good work.

[@rory123ab1]

Patience Stew...wait for the pint to settle before tasting, it's worth the wait🙂. Nice vlog

[@getawaygeese]

I know but it’s too damned nice 😂 thanks for watching

[@lifeisouroyster]

Loving your Ireland videos. Always cheerful and entertaining. Looks so relaxing. Keep up the fantastic work. All the best.

[@getawaygeese]

Thanks for feedback it keeps us going - glad you enjoyed

[@paulinedivingdeepincincinn1962]

Hi guy's so beautiful food looked delicious stay blessed 💙 💋

[@getawaygeese]

It was blooming lovely - honest food in a honest bar …. Thank you for watching and commenting

[@4potslite169]

I think Stu was a bit embarrassed when you announced his stinky feet dilemma. Very funny episode you two! Had a nice chuckle!😂

[@getawaygeese]

Lol 😂 the ficus was right on me I tried to deflect it but failed

[@Dreyno]

The hovering bird is probably a kestrel. They’re common in Ireland and the only hovering bird of prey here apart the merlin which is much less common.

[@getawaygeese]

Thanks as you say we didn’t see many - we get large kites in certain places in wales and Scotland

[@alanwilkins139]

👍❤️

[@getawaygeese]

Thanks

[@patriciahackman3637]

Your bar meal looked yummy ( as Ken would say ). Always look out for your vlogs which are so honest & enjoyable. Thank-you for sharing Ireland.

[@getawaygeese]

Thanks for watching the local mussels were brilliant

[@blakes4ontour]

Lol... finishing each other's sentences! I'd love to see Stew take the weather to court!!!!!!! Thanks for taking us there! Ju 😁

[@getawaygeese]

We seem to be getting worse at that lol thanks for watching

[@joytooutoo]

Storm Evaders

[@getawaygeese]

That’s the term lol 😂

[@outlaw7x77]

When I was a teenager, there were so many places we all could go for a private night of debauchery away from parents. Nowadays, kids still do the same things; but there are far fewer places for them to go. Today they are faced with gated roads, "No Trespassing" signs, and newer housing developments Places 40 years ago that were just a forested dirt road. Think of all the modern day urban sprawl. Not to mention Vanlifers Boondocking in their favorite spot! Lol...this JMO. I once woke up to kids (in Arizona) pulling up next to me, and shooting off their shotgun at 12:30AM. (I learned don't ever try boondocking at a gunrange way out in the desert.) I have a Sprinter Van...eventually I want to get LED spotlights set up on the top that would light up brightly all around the van. It's good they just ran off. The kids that were shooting off their shot gun stayed for a little while. (This was the USA) I had a pistol...but that's not much compared to three stupid kids and one 12 Gauge shotgun. I moved too. After they left.

[@getawaygeese]

Thanks for watching an telling your story - must of been scary none the less. I think it was just kids and could of been worse but at the times we didn’t know what was going on so it set the heart rate going for sure

[@jenzerbabiee1]

Brilliant guys absolutely love ur Ireland series so beautiful 😍 can I ask yous so far where was the most beautiful spot to visit for a family that wasn’t so populated with national people so far yous have shown some beautiful places along ur travels ❤

[@getawaygeese]

That’s a difficult question as so many beautiful places - if it’s sunny and you want a beach day with a young family then the beach at Cullenstown was great in the sun. A good walk for the family then the three castles walk that leads to Dunlough Castle is a dramatic view Cobh museum is a great day out of the kids like that type of fact finding day

[@jenzerbabiee1]

@@getawaygeese brilliant I’ll have a look into them recommendations thanks a lot

[@keithholder3443]

Another good episode from you two, those mussels looked plump and delicious. You mentioned Ken a few times but who is he? have we missed an episode or blinked and missed him.

[@getawaygeese]

Thanks - glad you enjoyed - Ken and Carol have a channel called Life is Too Short - we have learned a lot off them

[@ericlacey6593]

You two are so real , super video. I’ve followed you for a while but not commented. Thank you for all your trouble to share it with me . X🚐👍

[@getawaygeese]

Well really appreciate you following and nos commenting as the feedback keeps us going - thanks

[@getawaygeese]

Thanks Eric - means alot ☺️ jane
