    I agree with you Kirsten, alcohol is blah. Being almost 60, I remember when cough meds had small amounts of alcohol in them, enough to burn the hooties out of your throat going down. Never could abide the smell or taste after that. It reminds me of medicine and being sick. You were very fun to watch while tasting it, though! You made me chuckle out loud. Great video, fun and entertaining as usual. Cheers, Mary

    Es muss doch wirklich atemberaubend gewesen sein vor dem schottischen Ferienhaus der Königlichen Familie zu stehen! Einfach herrlich.
    Die vielen leckeren Pralinen, da hätte ich auch nicht widerstehen können.
    Schottland und Whisky, der Besuch einer Destilleriy gehört einfach dazu, ich war vor Jahren mal in der Glenfiddich Distillery. Vielen Dank für die tollen Schottland Videos, bis zum nächsten Mal, glb Grüße von Anneliese 😘

    • @KirstenJoerg
      @KirstenJoerg  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Ja, es war wirklich schön! Obwohl das Castle nicht so beeindruckend ist aber die Umgebung dafür umso mehr, ist einfach herrlich in den schottischen Highlands. Das stimmt, wir waren vor Jahren auch in der Distillery in Pitlochry, Blair Atoll, die hat uns wesentlich besser gefallen aber diese hier lag auf dem Weg nach Hause.

  • @michaeltichael
    @michaeltichael 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Balmoral looks lovely. And Dewars distillery! What a surprise, having found their white label to be a great drinking experience in the past. Joerg made a great selection with his whiskey. I would also like to see much of the mundane, day to day food people eat in England, like a fry up from Aldis or such.

I'd have so much joy just hearing you describing all the wonderful and beautiful places that you go. I live in the US in Cincinnati and since I was a child I have always loved English History. Thank you for teaching us so much. 🤗

    You will probably need a good stiff slug of Whiskey after your hike. The woods look like a lovely property. I was just reading about the visit of Nicholas and Alexandra to Balmoral around 1895....Olga, their first daughter was just 1. They arrived in OPEN carriages from the train station in spitting rain, with torchlight procession near the castle. Can you imagine? Nicholas was obliged to go tramping around the property trying to shoot a stag or some grouse. He got a few grouse but no stag. He was not pleased. In addition he had a toothache that made a few days miserable. The weather in their 11 day visit was very changeable but mostly foggy, dreary and cold. Alexandra loved visiting her granny there because she had great childhood memories of summer at Balmoral. Queen Victoria kept the castle at 60 degrees, which means you would have been chilled to the bone without heavy woolen sweaters, jackets, voluminous woolen skirts and flannel petticoats, or for men, tweed or woolen plaid trews. That is a pyramid to Albert, the "great and the good"! Wow, those chocolates look very high end. Lovely. When we visited the Highlands several years ago we had never been in weather so completely changeable -- every 15 minutes a change, from spitting rain, to sleet in the higher elevations, to brilliant blue sky, sunshine, and then back to rain again. We wore waterproof rainwear with fleece underneath and were very comfortable all day long in May, I believe. Daffodils were in bloom, so springtime, yet the trees seemed to be more in leaf than in your video. I was most impressed with Glen Coe where a great battle took place. I could see in my mind's eye kilted warriors on those rocky hilltops. Wow. I love history. thanks for this tour. I didn't know you could only see one room, and then, no photos. I guess the royals have reason to protect their privacy.

    What another lovely treat of a vlog! The hike around the castle looks very doable for all levels of walkers! I loved seeing the cottage and greenhouse.
    I would gladly join you in the gluten free cake and hot chocolate but skip the whiskey. I don’t understand how anyone can drink it although I do put bourbon in my trifle at Christmas! 🤷🏼‍♀️
    Have to tell you your last video of that incredible hotel inspired a redo of our stairway and upstairs hallway. The painting is currently being finished on the walls in a lovely stone taupe (greige colour)we have painted our railings black and we are beginning to choose artwork (black and white prints, B/W photographs etc from our (extensive) collection) to get them framed in black and cover the walls floor to ceiling! It is a wide staircase and hallway for our city house and will add a lovely bit of drama plus allow us to see our collection every single day! I do hope we will be able to go and stay there one day but for now I will watch and rewatch your lovely video! Thank you!

    • @KirstenJoerg
      @KirstenJoerg  2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Thank you so much! I must admit that I wasn't really dressed for the longer walk as we actually didn't plan it but at least I had good shoes on so that was good. The estate is absolutely huge so you can so on very long hikes so there's definitely something for all levels. Wow, how great to hear that the hotel inspired you. I must say we found it extremely inspirational as well. I'm sure your redo will turn out beautifully.

    We really loved Scotland when we were there. Didn't see Balmoral but would have liked to. So glade to see it with you and Joerg. Friends have asked me why I like England so since I have German heritage. I tell them that I am English on my mother's side and German on my father's side but my great great grandfather came from Hanover where King George the 1st came from. The royal family is full of Germans. Even Prince Albert was German! I have always liked single malt whisky too Joerg. Wonderful video thanks Kirsten. 🇬🇧🇩🇪😎 Cheers Ron & Dovie

    • @KirstenJoerg

    Oh wow, I thought are they really at Balmoral?! How wonderful! It’s so beautiful and peaceful. I am always in a good mood within moments of clicking on your video ms. I didn’t know about the cairns. But I do know that it’s the law that if you leave your umbrella in the car, it will rain.
    I am strange. I actually love the rain. I always feel at home 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿
    And I‘m also a Jemima Worrybee! But now it’s a cute thing to be, instead of a pain, thanks for that!

    It is so amazing how you can actually get so close to the castle.. I noticed there was no flag up so Her Majesty is definitely not in. I believe she has been staying there this week though before the wonderful Jubilee. Must be an amazing time to be in the U.K. at this time especially. The scenery is beautiful as always. Amazes me how it’s safe to hike in the woods in the U.K. Here in northern New Jersey I would be afraid of the bears, creepy crawlies, mountain lions etc etc..
    I would love a book about all your travels, the pictures would be breathtaking! Thank you

    I never tire of seeing a classic English Garden. The distillery looks like a lot of fun!! Although I must admit… the chocolate tasting would be more up my alley as well.

      The gardens were lovely but not as breathtaking as others, what's the best in Balmoral are the views.

    Your hair is so pretty in this video . A little wider at the sides I think. Beautiful grounds and video.

    Very interesting. I knew the queen spends summers at Balmoral but I had no idea it was built so 'recently'. How interesting also to see that Prince Albert's memorial is like a pyramid. Balmoral has lovely grounds too. I've never been a whiskey fan either, but it's a very popular spirit and the Japanese are also very renowned whiskey distillers. Thank you for sharing your adventures with us.

      Wonder why the memorial is a pyramid.did he think he was a descendant of pharoahs

      This has nothing to do with it at all - a cairn is a group of stones arranged on top of each other and Prince Albert's is just huge that it looks like a pyramid.

      Thanks so much Stella! The Balmoral Estate is huge, you can go there for very long hikes, it's really lovely.

    Hi you two, I’ve just been watching your visit to Balmoral again but feeling very sad this time after the loss of our lovely Queen. Can’t believe she’s no longer with us.
    She’ll leave Balmoral for the last time at 10am today and taken to Holyroodhouse😭
    Hope you’re both ok xx

    I am so so happy to have found you two! I have noticed myself flipping all china over and hoping to find a wonderful piece from England. My husband and I are trying to plan a vacation to Scotland. My first trip to Europe! Your videos make me so excited to go! Thank you!!

    Kirsten, you and I are a lot alike. My husband calls me a Worry-Wart as I worry about everything 😆. I think you two should get V.I.P. Treatment when visiting Castles and Stately Homes, because you both are such lovely people who respect the rules and the places wherever you visit. You enjoy the history, lands and buildings and share your love of Historical places with viewers who are unable to visit themselves but who dream of visiting too and can do so while watching your videos. …Wow, Albert’s memorial Cairn is amazing!
    How was your Gluten Free Orange Cake? Whiskey is not my thing, but my husband loves It. Especially if it’s from Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿
    I had a great time watching this video as always. Till next time, Take Care 🤗🇨🇦

      Aww thanks so much Carole! We are totally fine and just want to be treated like everyone else and we're happy. Balmoral is such a great place for walks and hikes, the landscape and nature is so wonderful there. The gluten free orange cake was lovely.

    No wonder the Queen and Royals love Balmoral as beautiful. Your camera and video work is fabulous and Drone scenery wonderful. I love your outfits as they blend in with the countryside.

    That was really fun… There really was a pyramid tribute to Prince Albert. It was huge! The inscription on the pyramid was so touching. Also Kirsten.. I had to laugh at your restraint when tasting the whiskey.. I would have gotten the shivers… Don’t see how people drink it either.. But Joerg sure seemed to enjoy it. Thank you for taking us along.. I really look forward to Tuesdays with Kirsten and Joerg!!! ❤
