(ASTORIA, OREGON) Drone-flyover

[@christopherarmstrong-steve1122]

Thanks for a great tour...I was able to see features I didn't know existed - especially that huge accumulation of seals. Wonderful video, thank you.

[@lramerson]

I'm so in love with Astoria. Thank you for sharing this!

[@thekp503]

HI Lisa; I'm so glad you enjoyed it.

[@wannanewlife]

I want to live in Astoria so bad. Been there to visit, loved it. I'm a senior and it's hard to find housing for lower income. I visit this page frequently as it makes me feel tranquil.

[@thekp503]

Thank you Joy. Astoria is a very nice small and popular town. Weather permitting I can get out and create more content for you to enjoy.

[@wannanewlife]

Thank You for replying so quickly. I'll definitely be back.

[@hermenutic]

It's a wonderful area. moved from rural NY. Both were nice. This is better..

[@eleveneleven6638]

@Ligma Balls any suggestions on how to find affordable living?

[@TheCubs1981]

Makes me want to visit Astoria again! Great video.

[@thekp503]

Oh you should if you can. If you've been here before you know the Summers are the best.

[@Jackson1969.]

Absolutely beautiful footage, well done the ships in the river was my favourite part. I could watch ships come in and out for hours

[@thekp503]

Thank you... I'm glad you enjoyed it.

[@cynthiabruns6973]

Beautiful pictures of Astoria! Someday I hope to visit. I have been to Seaside but never made it to the Astoria. I have heard it is amazing to see in Winter too. Awesome video 💕

[@thekp503]

Thank you. I hope you do make it to Astoria. Winter is a little rainy but no less beautiful

[@hermesmallari6135]

Astoria is only about 20 mins. north of Seaside .You should also visit the quaint town of Cannon Beach. which is about 10 mins. drive south of Seaside.

[@dave216dx]

Beautiful

[@thekp503]

Thank you Dave.

[@dave216dx]

I have watched a few drone vids of the Tillamook Rock Lighthouse which i really like however have never seen any with the work put into them like your vids with the dramatic music etc or at the right times of day to capture particular lighting with cinema type editing (like yours) ... I reckon if your looking for more places to do these vids it would be well worth checking out

[@thekp503]

Thanks again. I do try to make vids I'd like to watch and not everything I point my camera at.

[@nickynick5424]

thankyou!! im hoping I can do a trip up there this coming summer 2018

[@thekp503]

Thank you Nick. I hope your plan works out.

[@hypertensive7627]

So proud of you curtis

[@ericpatterson9210]

Would you permit a local TV station to use a couple of these shots in a story with courtesy credit? Great shots and fantastic weather!

[@thekp503]

Hi Eric; Please contact me to let me know what your plan is. Thank you.

[@ericpatterson9210]

@@thekp503 thank you. Sent reply to address you provided.

Really good video, enjoyed watching it. The picture clarity is good quality, was it an expensive drone you used? I'm really keen to visit Oregon, planning a trip and would like to take in Astoria. I'm thinking of staying in Portland, is a trip to Astoria do-able in a day using public transport?

[@thekp503]

Thank you Ziugi. I appreciate the great feedback. I use the DJI mavic pro. Not too expensive although DJI has 2 new drones which are less expensive and great quality also. There may be public transportation to Astoria, however it may be expensive and a very long drive that way. I would suggest renting a car and that way you can enjoy Astoria, Seaside and Cannon beach, all North shore towns within a 30 mile drive. Plan on about a 2 hour drive from Portland. Hope you make it.

[@bandit3837]

union station, in Portland, has 2 bus runs to astoria daily.

[@GH-oi2jf]

ziugi d - There are two buses a day from Portland, but between arriving in Astoria in the morning and catching the evening bus back, you would be rushed to see anything. If you just want to visit the maritime museum and the Astoria column, that would be doable with careful planning. The bus terminal is not close to either. I would rent a car in Portland.

[@statmanstudios378]

Great clip was hoping you would go over the Goonies house and jail even the kindergarten cops school. nice nice nice

[@thekp503]

Thanks for the love... I'll see what I can do about the other sights.

[@GH-oi2jf]

Now Boarding - People should be aware that the “Goonies” house is a private residence and the occupants do not like having their privacy violated by sightseers.

[@statmanstudios378]

GH1618 ya pretty fully aware. But still get close and grab a picture. She knew what she bought. lots of people trying to get HGTV to buy it. But thanks for the information for others.

[@eleveneleven6638]

How gay friendly is the town?

[@thekp503]

Hello Eleven; Thank you for viewing my channel. Most towns in western Oregon are very accepting communities. Especially the coastal towns such as Astoria, Seaside, Canon beach and Manzanita, all North Coast towns within a few miles of each other. I hope this gives you the confidence to plan a trip to the Oregon coast.

[@rah62]

Astoria is only 10K in population but it has a LGBT bar and a LGBT community center. That's pretty stinkin' good, if you ask me.
