Exploring Cobh While Crashing Our Drone! - Ep. 9
This episode was full of surprises! We were so excited to get some really great weather which would give us a great opportunity to visit the Ballycotton Cliffs. This turned out to be surprise number one -- because it was a holiday there were no buses headed out that way. So, we decided on a train ride out to Cobh, Ireland where we were hoping to get some good seaside drone footage. Surprise number two: the drone decided to crash itself. But the third, and best surprise was Cobh itself. We were really lucky to have such a beautiful day in such a beautiful town.
If you're looking for weekend trips or cities to see in Cork, Cobh is a great choice (just try to go when there are no cruise ships!).
