Over the last couple of months I have been trying to to upload some videos here and there and often it wasn't the biggest of successes. Admittingly, I really suck at editting and also don't always have the time and the patience for it. Fair enough, that might be the bigger issue indeed. But it seems to be working again and that means that I can toss in some videos from other trips, that were also way too cool to ignore.
This is a drone video from my trip in Northern France where I headed out with the camper to nowhere and anywhere at the same time.
For starters where you can see in the thumbnail: These are seals who are chilling on the sand when the tide is low. Every day these guys swim into shallow water to take a rest and a good sunbath and also make a lot of noise with it as well. It is kind of a weird to see from the distance. It looks like all of these seals are in not such good shape as it looks like they have beached....But you can also see them moving and when the tide coming in again, they hop on down. Nothing to worry about!
The coast line was so diverse over there. On the one corner you would have the big cliffs acting as a big guardian over the sea, and around the next corner you would have these lush green fields.
I was surprised about the landscape over there, and all of a sudden I understood a lot more why this place is so often visited in late seasons. The weather is still friendly when you plan your activities for a bit, the food is good and fresh since everything comes out of the sea over there. And the roads also don't make you feel like a rush as you are driving through these small sleepy towns.
Droning was a challenge over here, as there were always some storms lurking around the corner and sometimes the wind would get really gusty really fast. And as you know landing your drone on beaches is not really a winner, so you always need to handcatch it....which is also not fun when it is windy because the chance that it chops into your hand is also there.
Regardless, this region was very surprising to me and I would love to head back again there over the years. The dream of a little camper van.....
