@@JapanLovers thanks for watching! Ren & Stimpy you say? Might have to imitate Mr Horse sometime 😃 Thanks for the feedback on geography, I could have pulled back to show the overall path in the video (I believe I had it in mind and just didn’t implement it). Tons of Tim Hortons over there! And wonderful!

It wasn’t horrible, but some stuff became difficult and I wasn’t able to explore out of the city. Though, making new friends and acquaintances and seeing friends I had made on my last trip was excellent. I do love going there for work. 😃 Also a little sad to find the Radisson was torn down while reviewing Google maps, but times change. Thanks for watching and commenting! Always appreciate it.

Hello, I would love to continue the series. At this time we are not in the state and that inhibits my ability to continue effectively. Yet, when I find myself over that way again - I'll see what I can do as I love the State Parks! :) Thanks for watching and commenting!

The WI state parks are good about keeping to their original vision - not much changes it feels, but I can consider that a plus. Yikes hearing about those people falling - but not surprising. Off and on, we would hear about similar stuff out there on the news still. West Central Florida? I have spent some time in Fort Myers area, but I think that is considered more southwest part of the state. The state parks I visited there definitely did not have the same feeling of support that they do in Wisconsin. Still very much enjoyed them though. Thanks for watching and commenting!

It is a nice nook of protected space! I am all for the educational aspect of the reserve - seeing children brought out into nature for hands-on experiences is much better than using a book to learn about nature. Bird watching can be good, I guess. I'm not much of a birder myself - but there are plenty of species spread across the state that can be found. Heck, they even had Flamingos in the spring this year - they got blown off course and ended up in Wisconsin for a bit. Thanks for watching and commenting!

Excellent! It is a place I would go back to for sure. Also, its great that it is so close to so many in the Fox Valley - tucked into Menasha. Thanks for watching and commenting!

It was nice to re-visit Sturgeon Bay through this edit, now that I am so far away. :) And Rick is the best of nerds. Thanks for watching and commenting!

There are a ton of amazing hikes on the island - I believe there is around 40 official trails leading to views, waterfalls, ruins, and more. Just haven't started doing them all --- there is one near my place that is beautiful. Thanks for the kind words on the loss, but wow, for your son to lose a best friend via suicide while away is immense. I can't imagine how that skewed the emotions from the trip. Hopefully, he is handling life after that kind of loss, something like that can run deep. Yup, this is our home now! It is friggen beautiful! Although, sometimes I don't feel as much here as I could due to long work hours, working for a US company, and working slightly skewed hours during the week. I feel like I need to break out on weekends to live it up. As for how much Portuguese we know, simple phrases for the most part. We were taking a weekly class for a few months, but our instructor's schedule changed and we have been on "independent study" mode since... and well, that is not going as well as having someone hold you accountable. In a few more years, I should be good with casual conversation I'd think. For a video on reasons why we are here, that will be on our Island channel coming later this year. I haven't announced it yet, because I want to get some things more solid before I launch anything. My new microphones should be in this week... then later this year we are investing in a drone, and I need to replace my greenscreen and lights as well... so, probably once I get all those items ready for action, I'll launch the new channel and announce it here, but like I said, this channel is staying, but content will probably be a little lighter as here will necessitate travel by sea or air, otherwise it will all hit the new channel when it launches. As always, thanks for supporting us in this endeavor. Hope to see some new stuff from your latest adventures as well!

@@getoutntravel6162 Wow, that’s all very interesting. All makes sense if you were transferred there by work. I hope they assured you of a lot of things which Im sure they did for you guy to buy there and go all in. It’s a huge life change. Ra is doing okay atm. Honestly, we weren’t getting along before but now we’re much closer and it’s bought the family together. There’s always good hiding in tragedy. It takes a broken heart to find it though. I’m looking forward to your new channel after you're all set up. That could be an undeveloped niche on KZbin that you guys could pioneer 👌

Haha, I ama little late jumping on this beer meme, but I enjoyed it and wanted to homage it! As for the dorsal fin, not exactly sure, but have always associated it with depression in captive orcas. The springs in furnas are numerous and each tastes a bit different, but I don’t recommend drinking from all of them at one time - didn’t feel great after that😅. Lapsa Garden is excellent and the trail is very nice - plenty of views even if you stay away from the ledge. 🙂 thank for watching and commenting!

Thanks - that street fighter bit was just fun to put together. These cats aren’t exactly feral - some are - some a domestics that have been abandoned. We have adopted a kitty we found on our patio. She is wonderful. Yup. Stuff was shot with the gimbal and the stick lens. Although. At this time I was not happy with the gimbal. It wouldn’t keep level, so often I have had to zoom and tilt the video. Today, the gimbal is working much better after multiple times rebalancing. Next video is a specific meme celebration. Thanks for watching and commenting!

Of course! Thanks for watching! I hope your trip goes great!

Thanks for watching & commenting! The pineapples are triggered into growing by smoke - they cut the top to keep the sugars in the fruit. They aren’t as acidic either. The drunken pear has soaked in brandy - and tasty. See you next time!

I say it to tell myself too. Sometimes we just get in the “oh, and that..” mode or an over planning mode. Sometimes I debate re-organizing trip events to fit a place-by-place kind of flow, but that will come later with what I am calling summary videos. One longer, but more concise “story”. As for Blender, I will start slow because I haven’t used a 3D program much since 1998 (which was 3D studio max) - while there is still quite a bit the same, re-learning and new tools will take a bit. 🙂 Episode 3 will come soon!

Thanks! I actually was about a week into producing a whole different style of video before I realized it wasn’t making me happy to create it. So, chucking all that work out, I started over and took it back to the structure that I enjoyed working with on the Iceland series. As for SFX - I will be expanding that a bit more as I enjoy making “fun” stuff. I am tinkering with Blender behind the scenes to see what I can add to my videos as well. Have a few idea, but I have many more donuts to make before I will be confident enough to fulfill some of those aspirations. Thanks for the support! I am already working on the next episode. 😄

Thanks, I appreciate the comment! The Westfjords do most of the work by just being beautiful. We look forward to returning sooner rather than later.

Wooohooo! Gotta move the excitement into action consistently to get through the series. 😅

I hear you. Nick Cave has some great insight into the artisitc struggle kzbin.info/www/bejne/lYHJZXqjhr5rhdksi=Jcpa904sherecDtq@@getoutntravel6162

Will have to give that a watch tomorrow. We saw him performing at Shane McGowan’s funeral. Bethany gave background to his performance. Thanks for the link and inspiration!

@@getoutntravel6162I missed that one. I always wanted to watch “CROCK OF GOLD: A FEW ROUNDS WITH SHANE MACGOWAN (2020)” Have a good one ✌️

Watched the video - I like the whiteboard drawings along with the reading. The letters series is great in general. While I am not sure if what I do is “art”, it is my hobby and it keeps me going and motivated to create - and that is worth something, at least to me. And I won’t be using chatGPT to do it because I am not concerned about churning out a product. Anyway, it’s almost time to pour some coffee and type up the script for the first video. 😁

Leading folks astray into the ocean, how could he!?

Happy to help! 🙂

Good to know! Thanks for watching and commenting!

Thank you! We very much look forward to returning!

Thanks so much! I have always enjoyed Whitefish Dunes State Park. I hope you do as well! 😊

Thank you! Obrigado. It is very beautiful! More videos on the island coming (hopefully soon!)

The majority of the roads will be perfectly fine with a 2w drive vehicle in May. There will be a pass or two that may still be closed, but what is open should not be a problem for you. F-Roads I’d avoid as well - as they can include river crossings or other obstacles that 4w drive would be needed. This should not disrupt your ability to get around the fjords. A good portion of roads are gravel, but have a nice width. Some spots have the “M” sign for pulling to the side if there is on-coming traffic. Some roads are steep, or have sheer cliffs with little to no railings. This can be more of a mental barrier than a driving barrier. Changing the side of the road you will drive would probably be the more difficult thing. Hoping you have great adventures there! It is amazingly beautiful!

Thank you Soo much for the valuable guidance

Did you rented a 4w drive?

Yes. We had a small 4w drive SUV. A Suzuki, I believe. Did us well. I don’t feel anything necessitated the 4w drive, but we took it in case of potential snow on the passes. (Which there was some but the roads were mostly clear)

Glad the video gave you an idea of what kind of hike it would be for your family. Please enjoy the falls, it’s a beautiful location (so many beautiful spots in Iceland!)

When in DC, I definitely will! Thanks!

We were planning on going, but we attempted to get tickets too late and we will have to go next time.

Hey, thanks for coming along for the ride!

Thank you! More videos to come, not just driving. 🙂

Correto. Este vídeo é de abril. O tempo estava ótimo.

@@getoutntravel6162 esse video 📹 está maravilhoso essa viagem tambem essa ilha é linda demais o tempo tambem a temperatura estava linda vê- se eu crê 16 ou 17 c correct

A ilha é incrivelmente bela! A temperatura estava perto dos 16 ou 17 c. A humidade fazia-a sentir-se mais quente.

@@getoutntravel6162 você é da ilha de são miguel azores

Não, mas estamos a trabalhar nesse sentido. 😁

It’s worth the drive. Next time I hope to hike further down the trail to see more - and hopefully the puffins will be there too! Thanks for watching and commenting on the video, we appreciate it!

bien vert ! les hortensias fleurissaient quand nous y étions. Et oui, les gens là-bas sont merveilleux. merci d'avoir regardé la vidéo et commenté !

After flying over the ocean for about 2 hours, seeing São Miguel appear, seemingly, out of the clouds was pretty amazing.

❤️❤️❤️ we are in the middle of a possible big life change - and we might not be able to post much this year because of it. But yes, the Azores, specially São Miguel was amazing and I cannot wait to share it!

Ah yes. Those hornets suck. I think it was a freak happenstance though. It’s a wonderful park and I would definitely go back. 😁

@@getoutntravel6162 hope you always have happy and safe travels, I miss those days, maybe just maybe someday.....

Will do, and thank you. I hope a return to those days for you as well!

It is a wonderful drive. There are so many awesome places to drive through in Iceland! Thank you for watching the video and commenting. Enjoy your own journey through Iceland, I am sure you’ll love it!

Glad to hear you enjoyed your time in Iceland! It’s wonderful, right? obrigado por seu comentário e por assistir!

Excellent! What a wonderful place to have nearby to hike, cycle, swim, kayak, fish… the list could go on.

In the video it appears the actual hiking took around 14 minutes. If it was recorded in x5 speed (pretty sure it was) it would have taken me an hour and 10 minutes. Which seems appropriate as i took breaks along the way and wasn’t that fast.

Yeah, the north is pretty striking in scenery.

Ahhh, we booked the Retreat Spa package long before leaving for the trip. Only to get a message the day before that it was an error on the site that allowed us to book on the day that we did. We booked on Ascension Day, and they would be closed. The offer to set us up on the following days weren’t possible as it was one of the last things for us to do on the trip. So, I didn’t get to experience the Blue Lagoon (Bethany had visited on a previous trip with a friend). Hoping to return and give it another go.

They do have sunny weather there - but it can change quite rapidly. On our way out to those cliffs we had bright sunshine, but once we got there it became overcast. I do plan on getting hiking videos with the a7c and the m2s this year. I used the a7c for photos and videos at this location (used in the “vlog” videos) - but the GoPro was exclusively for hiking videos like this. Thanks for watching and commenting as always!

Glad you enjoyed! Thanks for watching. And commenting! We can’t wait to return, and maybe see some Puffins next time.

Hello Rohan, we rented a 4x4 small SUV vehicle from KEFCAR. I believe it was a Suzuki Vitara 4x4. This was more than enough as we were not traveling into the highlands and we weren't looking to camp in our vehicle either. Ragnar can do good by you at KEFCAR - looks like they might have campers too.

Gah, I’d be upset with losing footage on an external HDD. I hope you can salvage your footage! I was originally convinced to do walking videos by the channel rambalac. You might like their work. There is a lot going on in Ueno Park. I suggest day and night walks. I understand not making it there though, there is so much to do in Tokyo. Thanks for watching and commenting!

The day of this video was May 4th, 2021. Are you planning a trip to Iceland? Thanks for watching the video and commenting!

@@getoutntravel6162 we are planning to go in 2nd week of june 2022. Thank you so much for the info.

That will be an excellent time to travel to Iceland - the landscape should be green (I’d think), longer days, but sadly more tourists. There is also more to see on the golden circle (we couldn’t get to everything) like Þingvellir National Park, Secret Lagoon, and Reykjadalur Hot Spring Thermal River among other places. Enjoy your trip to Iceland!

Thank you very much! Glad you enjoyed the video!

Glad you enjoyed the video! Thanks for your support and comment - we will keep posting the videos!
