Thanx for sharing this trip. Looks epic 🙂 I have to say 3:21 childish personified🤣🤣 gave me a god laugh😅 No wonder only men worked here😜 You 2 seem to be a couple of fit people and walked up there with no problem😃💪
I saw a couple of musk while hiking across Dovre back in 2015. Beautiful animals. They where standing near the path so we had to do a big circle around them so we diden’t get to close.
What i love about a human powered rail rider is the quiet ! That and if there is a malfunction it's usually easy to fix , imagine if a gas powered cart broke down and you had to push it back ! This is simplicity, your country is beautiful and id one day love to go there to see it snd the people ! What would top it off would be to see Angelina Jordan singing live ! That girl is absolutely amazing and is becoming very well known here in the United States ! Have a great day and go Angelina from Seattle !
She's a giant! Nah, just kidding. She's only about 15 cm taller than the average women were 130 years ago, so it's mainly that old houses in Norway were very low (probably to save on building materials).
@@jorntv2544 Also, you don't need a step stool to reach the top shelf or clean the cobwebs. 😁 Or heat the extra space. Extra space seems pointless when you have to chop, split, and carry every stick of wood. I've been there. My grandfather built his own house in 1920 and they heated with a single center wood stove and limited it to 900 sq ft between top and bottom level so the heat would serve for both floors and they could close off the upstairs bedrooms during the day but heat them up quickly before bedtime. He was a very practical man. It may also be worth noting that 15 cm is not unsubstantial regarding doorways and the need to duck or not duck every time you enter/exit.
I can't remember exactly, but I think it was about 3-4 hours. Takes a bit longer if you also go to the viewpoint above where the photo at 5:56 was taken from. Our trip was about 9 hours in total, including the viewpoint and a fairly long break to eat lunch, take photos, timelapses and so on.
Looked wonderful but many people use normal bicycles with outrigger balance wheels and steering guides, they are lighter and more importantly quiet. Never the less if we get back to Europe I'll try and take my wife along. 😎👍
We actually went to the US on a decommissioned line last summer. It's used by the Southern Michigan Railroad as a museum. We didn't ride a draisine, but got a ride in one of their trains. 🙂
We didn't have time to visit all sites and we're not going to mention a place we haven't visited ourselves. But it's on the list of places to visit if/when we go back to Malta. 🙂
We tried looking into this, but there's surprisingly little information about how they're made. But we'll make a video if we find out, as well as showing how they work. It's actually quite simple: The main wheels ride on the rail with a larger outer diameter than the center so that it doesn't derail. And the other side is simply there for balance, it doesn't grip onto the sides of the rail.
We viseted this mine and went in the lower part of it. We tryed to spot the ladder from below but cant figure it out. Thx for the video, now we know how it looks at the top. Sadly you cant walk in the maineadit. Its more for the advanced rope climbers What kind of camera do you using?
The ladder starts several hundred meters from the bottom of the valley and at an angle that makes it very hard to see (you can barely spot it from the main road between the parking lot and the big wheel). We're using a Nikon Z 6 and D750, paired with a 24-70 mm f4 here, and for dark places like mines we use the Samyang 24 mm f1.4 and Sigma 14 mm f1.8 .
Hello - i like ur video I m planning to visit Malta for 6 nights (20-26 DEC) with my wife and 2 daughters(9and 8). And I have a couple on questions … 1-i have not got concrete plans yet..but tentatively , I m thinking of having a 2 night stay in GOZO and 4 nights somewhere near Valletta.. what do u think of this plan? 2-i have read a lot about the great bus service in Malta and I also heard that it is always late but I m unsure if that applies to the winter time? So honestly I m leaning towards renting a car especially Because I M going to spend some time in gozo?shall I do this or the bus is just fine? 3-what can I do on the Christmas day(25 DEC)?will everything be on shutdown? 4-i m flying back on 26DEC-(8am), if I don’t have a rental car , will I be able to reach the airport with uber/bus? 5- for cab-hailing apps,is uber the best one? 6-is there an available farm-stay property that we can stay in at malta where the kids can see/feed some animals like cows,horses , dog, cats or sheeps? Many Thanks,,
Hello! I'll try to answer the questions where I have experience with this: 1. I think that sounds like a good plan. There's quite a lot to see in Gozo too, we spent two nights there as well and definitively didn't get bored. And there's even more to see in Malta, so spending more time there sounds like good plan. 2. We travelled in winter time as well and didn't have issues taking the bus, but we only took it to Valetta. It might be that it's less reliable outside the cities. There are so many smaller places and rural roads that I'd definitively get a rental car. It also makes time management so much easier. For the other questions I don't really have any experience. I'd be surprised if there are no bus services to the airport, but as we had a rental car we didn't really check that option. Enjoy your trip, Malta is a beautiful place! 🙂
Yeeeah, don’t think a fence like that could have saved you, but nice short story! I don’t know when you filmed that, but to my knowledge flying a drone in that NP was in any case already forbidden in 2019. I won’t hang you up on that, just that you know. Just to leave it here as a note for anyone who might read this: I cannot recommend anyone to fly in an area like that, animals like reindeer get easily disturbed. Cheers.
There is currently a global rental car shortage making prices sky rocket, so you won't see prices like when this video was published. However, things are getting better, so prices should start to come down again soon.
I'm seriously considering taking my soon to be Wife here for our Honeymoon. She's already been to Paris so, it's a decision between Malta and Rome. I have a feeling that Malta will be less expensive but that's not really the deciding factor.
We used Avis if I remember correctly. Looking at rental company reviews in Malta we felt like all of them were bad, and that Avis was the least worst. But we had absolutely no issues with them.
