I'm Not Exploring Solo Anymore! 🚐 | Cheddar Gorge Vanlife Adventure

Two vans, one epic gorge and absolutely no idea where we're sleeping tonight. I am still traveling with Mark and we are off to explore Cheddar, probably go on a little hike and hopefully find somewhere to park up before dark that is free and has signal. What could possibly go wrong? The services for showers. I am very tired. I feel like I look like I'm very tired. Oh my goodness. Hi, can I get the key for the shower? Of course you can. That feels lovely, all fresh and clean. We are off. Well, we're on a bit of a water hunt first. I'm alright with the water, but Mark needs water, so we're going to go and, I've never been to a petrol station to try and get water, but we're going to go and try to the gorge. Well, that petrol station was a failure, but we found another one. Going up here? I was just going to ask if it's alright. Are we okay? There's a whole bit of water. God, he's going to kill me. He's going to bring this van to all these little skinny roads. I think he's going to be happy with me. Let's go and see. Did you get my message? Why didn't you pull in to those places? Did you get my message? You're on video. I put my message on saying let's just have a little window picture, I don't want to be walking up there, I'll just drive up and have a look, you know, that's nice. Then I drove back down to the bottom. I'm going to go for a little wander, gorge walk, cheddar via black rock. You've come to a place you have to explore it. I do. Why can't we do it? Oh, you've got to pull it. That's what we're handling now. It says push. Poisonous, isn't it, that one? I don't know. I'd like to know about mushrooms. One of the magic ones, just didn't even start right. Such a toss. Is dogs okay to be not on a lead with goats? We're not gonna sit down yet, are we? Come here, Warren! Come here, Warren! Come here! Hey, oh, him's scared to go. You're on. Nope. Wow, I'm a bloke. That's a cow. Oh, come here. Come on. Oh, come on. Come on, come on. Come on, little fella, come on. Oh, look at that. could be a They scare the hell out of me. They just stare at me. Oh, careful. I can't get any closer than this. If yours are going jelly, mine will. Oh no. Oh no. Can't get up that high to look. I'm too scared. Look at the edge the mad bastards. Oh wow yeah look at them. Crazy mountain goats. Stop it. Oh you're making me nervous. Stop it. Don't. Oh there's no way we're going to get down here. It doesn't make sense to me how we're going to be able to get down. We're up like. Trying to find somewhere with signal that we can park where we don't have to pay during the day is proving difficult in Cheddar which kind of obviously that's the thing. We came to Sainsbury's because we thought we'd be able to park in Sainsbury's just for an hour or so and collect our bearings, have some lunch. Lots of paying to spray as well so we think we found somewhere, try again, I don't think Mark will be coming with me on another little trip We found a little place, this is on park for night, it's just like a little dead end thing here, it'll do for now. Half past one. So hungry I've just heated up a chilli that I brought from home. I don't know whether this will be our spot where we stay or whether we'll move on but we both need to get some work done and this place I think has okay signal. Well that was lazy we just had a little afternoon afternoon nap and all of a sudden it's got dark. We're gonna stay here tonight I think, may as well If he says yes, there's loads of us. Isn't it literally what you say to the genie? Here comes the wish. How can that be a wish? It's a question. I know it can't. It's a question. I understand but I think that is how it works. I think the genie would answer the question. It's probably more than a storage unit. It would be more than a storage unit. You're probably talking like... You'd have to give him specifics because you wouldn't want all of it. But then you could give it to charity and things. You're probably talking a pile of gold. Probably the size of a castle or something. Come on. Come on. Come on. Hi. Good morning. Oh, it's a lovely day. No. What are you doing? Is it done? No, no, no. Come on. Come on. Come on. No, what do you mean? I'm just gonna have a little wander down into Cheddar. I'm leaving the van back there because it's free there and everywhere in Cheddar you have to pay for. I don't think I'm actually going to go into the caves at Cheddar Gorge because I have done that before, years and years ago. I brought some foster kids on a holiday with the foster kids, found this area and we went to Cheddar Gorge. So I don't think I'm gonna go into the caves but I might have a little hike up, go up Jacob's Ladder. I might go to a campsite, there's a campsite. Mark was looking, there's a campsite, like look for me. just there he could do with charging up and stuff so i'm all good but i haven't been using my power i've been cooking in his van and things so uh yeah we might go to a campsite tonight oh we're walking to cheddar says it's highly dangerous but no i guess i should turn around i don't want to be hit this is a much nicer walk into cheddar than that big main road there's quite a few car parks like this in cheddar that you can stay overnight in there's nothing to say that you can't it's just daytime Daytime charges, could be here after six and then leave by nine. There's a camper over there actually. There's toilets. So yeah, it's quite accommodating really. There's a car park as well. This one doesn't say anything about no overnighting, so you could, it would be seven pound unless you came after 11. I don't know if I'm just too early. Everything seems closed. It is like, I don't know, half nine or something. Maybe everything opens at 10. Here's another car park that you could stay overnight in. This is where we were gonna come. I think this one's after five. You can stay overnight. Oh this is quite a little bit of a scupper of my plans. I thought you could just walk up Jacob's Ladder, I think this is, yeah this is the entrance to it. I thought you could just go but it's part of a day ticket. I'm sure last time I came you didn't pay to go up Jacob's Ladder, but then if you asked no because we would have bought the ticket, now I'm thinking about actually yeah because we did go in the cave so we would have had the ticket and just then gone up Jacob's Ladder. And everything was closed, it was still a, it was still a nice little wander. I'm just going to spend a little bit of time. Doing a bit of work in the van I think. I'm going to end this one here. Thank you so much for watching and I will see you in the next one. Bye bye.
