VIDEO: Coral Bay to the End of East End Driving

Post by yourtheexpert »

We were just playing around with this video. It is a time lapse of driving from Coral Bay to the end of East End. Slowed it down for the pretty ocean views and animals. Watch out for baby goats near the end. Shot with an iphone 4 and edited with iMovie.

that was awesome!!! we are staying in the very east end in a few weeks, but i've only driven out as far as Vie's, so it was nice to go a little further in the video.

i've been thinking about trying to make some jeep videos, how did you hold it so steady? maybe i could duct tape our vid cam to the dash, lol, it will be fun trying.

thanks for the ride!

Shelli, just have a friend ride shotgun and hold it :) Or pick up a hitch hiker to help. But yea it was just held against the windshield.

Feel free to share it anywhere you want :)

Love the video -- thanks for sharing. I did not make it very far past Coral Bay, so appreciate a taste of what is beyond. Will definitely go that way next trip. Always heard about the tree in the road.

Taking a photo in the middle of the road -- that's the kind of thing I would do. Fun, fun!

That was a lot of fun! It was almost like being on a roller coaster. Thanks for taking us along.

I love it! We made that drive our first trip to the island, but haven't done it since. It's definitely on my growing to do list for our trip in November!
