  • An evening hike around the Lough Bray Upper and Lower Lakes situated in Wicklow. Stunning views along the route and well worth a visit! Its about a 6.5km walk with a good track to guide you around. A stop at Eagles Crag will be difficult to avoid - bring your flask and enjoy the view!

      Thank you Char - glad it provided some escape for you today! I actually tried to do this same walk on Sunday while we had snow but I couldn’t drive my car far enough in to Wicklow so I explored another spot instead. There was no one’s footprints but my own on the mountain I climbed - very nice!! 😊

    Hi Miriam, wow what a perch you found there. You were a tiny little speck and yet you could see so much. I find that fascinating. Just popping in to say great to connect this year. Have a cool week and a fantastic 2022. All the best - see you out there. Mark

      Cheers Mark - lovely to hear from you! Yep, it was a very nice perch for sure for an evening cuppa...I remember that I went for that walk when we had just started to have bright evenings again and it was my first decent walk mid-week after work. Roll on those evenings again!! Thank you so much for your connection and support in 2021 also, it has been a great pleasure to come across your channel and to have some banter with you! Wishing you the best for 2022 also, I hope it brings you much pleasure 😎

    Miriam, what a fantastic evening with the loughs looking absolutely beautiful. Glorious colours on the ground and in the sky. What a spot to stop for refreshments - definitely the best seat in the house (even beating if you lived in that house on the shore of the lough😊) 👍👍

    Hi there, very beautiful and calm video. There are not many trees and forests in Ireland anymore, our scientists here in Finland have figured out the reason for this.

    • @RaimoLehtinen
      @RaimoLehtinen 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      After the last ice age, there were large forests in Ireland. The first people came to Ireland from Finland and were called Häme peoples. They fell in love with your trees, used them mercilessly, and carried them with their roots here to Finland. That is why we have very large forests here in Finland and you dont. This is a scientific fact and was already told in school in the first grade...here in Finland.

    Hi Miriam, loved the video and the scenery is amazing. Could you recommend a reasonable priced drone that will take similar shots? Thanks. Ray

    • @MiriamKennedy
      @MiriamKennedy  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi Ray! Thanks for your message, I’ve only ever used one drone so I can’t offer you any other recommendation beyond that I’m afraid. I use the DJI Mini 2 - it weighs 249g and takes really great quality shots for its size. Due to its low weight it has limitations on flying in high winds but it can still handle a fair bit of wind very well! I think it’s a super drone for its price and I’m very happy with the quality of its output. Best of luck on your research and if you go with it - have lots of fun with it!! 🤗
