Splendid

As you love the sea and the coastline you will LOVE the coast near Cape Town: Cape Peninsula is spectacular, both sides of the peninsula, and then on the other side of the big False bay, Clarence drive all the way through to Hermanus! I can be your tourguide when you come!

8:15 For sure delicious! In South Africa one used to only be able to get them over Easter time. But now, as there in the UK, they are available year round!

Badgerboy it really was delicious mmmmmm

[@neldawalker6265]

Loved the story of the sea stack! Settlement out there? Mad! Loved the Vlog BTW

[@TREADtheglobe]

Hi there Nelda - thanks for the comment and really pleased you loved the vlog . 👍😀 . Yes can you imagine living on that head - when the rope bridge collapsed they would have had a big problem - lucky a ship managed to rescue them with ropes - not sure how !!!

[@JamesyboyExperiment]

You guys make everything look so cosy. The Irish stew sure looked soul warming. Crazy story about the sea stack....cannot believe that there was a settlement there. Lush is by far one of the BEST descriptive words 👍

[@TREADtheglobe]

Hi guys - yes the irish stew was amazing - I expected it to be more like our english stew - wow the flavour was delicious !!! Yes mad to think people lived on that head - it was so high !!! Bet the rope bridge would have been an experience. Marianne says glad you liked the word lush LOL !!!

[@TREADtheglobe]

Amazing right especially on a head like that - awesome !!!

[@jsm.equine419]

My grandad owns the sea stack and the surrounding land and he has written a book about downpatrick head and the surrounding area in county mayo the book is called the road to downpatrick head by Donal McCormick and is for sale in most newsagents and tourists shops in mayo

Wow - what a fabulous legacy .... you should be sooo proud - i have put it on the reading list ... happy New Year and thank you for your comment - Marianne xx

[@biddiemutter3481]

Especially in areas where the cliffs are mainly chalk ... because chalk crumbles ! (I'm addressing the people who aren't familiar with chalk cliffs, not Marianne and Chris)

[@TREADtheglobe]

Thank you for sharing this info 🌷

That plane is an Irish Aer Corps (our Air Force) CASA CN235 Maritime Patrol aircraft. It is based just outside Dublin in Casement Aerodrome. They sometimes post amazing images from around our coastline, on social media.

[@TREADtheglobe]

I have had a look online and the pub web site is www.thebeachbarsligo.com/ . The food was fabulous - you can park up there for the night and they also have coin operated showers which we took advantage of 👍😀
