EPIC TRIP To Port Townsend! Washington State Travel

[@makeupmagic432]

An officer and a gentleman was made there!!! I'd love to visit!!!

[@e.t.2437]

My home! I love it so much.

[@farahalenezi8663]

I come from Kuwait and I have been through this bridge on my way to Forks❤

[@pammerle1691]

I lived in Port Townsend for 7 years...Port Townsend has two streets that run thru town...the one your on takes you thru town then there is a up town street ... If you pay attention to the Tides Hotel, the single story rooms...one of the room is the exact room that Officer and a Gentleman was filmed as well as the Military housing. The water area is THE PUDGET SOUND...NOT QUITE THE OCEAN, from the Tides you look across to Whidby Island where the Naval Base is. In Port Townsend there is STILL A LAW ON THE BOOKS that is NO SPITTING ON THE SIDE WALKS and has been a LAW sense the 18 hundreds, they made the LAW because it was a sea Port and women in their BIG LONG DRESSES that would drag on the sidewalks SO THE LAW WAS MADE so their dresses would not drag thru spit ;) Seriously!!! If you went to the end of town where there is boat docks across that water way you are looking over to Canada. But Port Townsend had a Few Movies made there and the Fairies...one was Officer and a Gentleman, the movie with J-LO ENOUGH, Ashley Judd and Morgan Freeman made the movie where her husband faked his death and went to New Orleans. Yep all partially filmed on Port Townsend

[@Tchild2]

I love Port Townsend. It is like taking a time warp to the turn of the century...the early 20th century.

[@Zeeann69]

Thank you Renae.

[@shawns5249]

Awesome video and the architect of the buildings looks awesome too!!! Glad to see you had a great time. Thank you for sharing your travel!!!

[@explorationtogetherness4588]

I loved the building also. They were so pretty ❤

[@daleschall8093]

Hello, Renae and Sam, Glad you guys enjoy your adventure.. We are looking forward to meeting you and Sam in Leavenworth some day.....

[@Papermoon310]

Epic bridge! Not the galloping Gertie of the past. I love seeing pictures of my home state. So beautiful. I know my parents have been over that bridge, as they were planning to return to WA and retire in Port Townsend. Having a bunch of grandchildren in So. Calif changed their minds. But WA will always be home to our family.

[@slightlymisguided1451]

Filmed alot of Richard Gere movie "an Officer and a Gentleman " there. Some scenes downtown and alot at Fort Warden park.

[@Papermoon310]

Oh this is so beautiful! I understand my parents attraction to the town. I love sleeping near the ocean and hearing the waves. It was cool to see the difference on the shore with the tide in, the next morning. Thank for sharing!

[@explorationtogetherness4588]

We slept with the door open all night. The waves were so peaceful ❤

[@coffeetruecrime7697]

[@crystalswenson8844]

I haven't visited Port Townsend, but I did spend a few days in Port Angeles and the surrounding area a few years ago. It was a wonderful place to visit. This flatlander from South Dakota loved the time I spent in the Pacific Northwest.

[@jpallen719]

Omg…… what a room….. nice to see people truly matched and in love doing wonderful things together. May you be blessed:)❤️🌲

[@moonlitpearl700]

Been over that bridge many times. Been to Port Townsend many times. Nice area.

[@grama9094]

I lived in Sunnyside WA for about a year. I didn't get to see too many sites. Mt. Rainier was about it. We moved there for a job and worked all the time. We decided to come back to Arkansas. 😉

[@debdavis7382]

Sam why keep apologizing for the wind since you are not responsible for it nor can you control it!! Lol. Love you guys!!

[@slightlymisguided1451]

As a Truck Driver in the area and friends who live/lived in Port Townsend and outlying areas have driven that Bridge hundreds of times. Been across back in the toll days,been stopped while Submarines passed underneath, thus making them have to open the span. Yep crossed it a few times.

[@explorationtogetherness4588]

That's really cool! That would be awesome to be stopped so a submarine could pass under 😯

[@karengillette3372]

Awesome..Great place!I'm jealous!Hope you two have a great time.😎👏💕🎉 Hope you go have ice cream😘🤣

[@explorationtogetherness4588]

No ice cream but it was a blast 🙌🏼

[@lindapeterson1135]

The place is very beautiful Thank you for bringing us along

[@explorationtogetherness4588]

Your welcome 😊

[@jpallen719]

Years ago like in late 90’s before all the growth in area, my favorite thing to do was during rainy winter months, to walk the streets of PT….it was the most peaceful thing, the little beach, the wharf and stand in the wind looking at the ocean…… then maybe a public house lunch, then joe Euro’s Wine Cellar and head home…….. those were the days……

[@dravik3335]

Theres nothing better than taking a road trip with that one person

The Hood Canal Bridge is about to get a round a bout on the west end, and another at the turn off to Port Townsend on highway 19. Back ups will increase.

[@breezy8105]

I drive a white Kia Soul and am pretty sure that you're seeing me at 3:22 haha. I only say this because you actually drive past my home street on the way to downtown! The Bayview is so bleh compared to the rest of our food. If you want a good experience, go to Sirens, Docs, Waterfront, Alchemy, Quench, Tommy Knockers, Silverwater, Banana leaf, Golden Ocean, Fiesta etc... We are so rich with food here! Super glad you checked out Soak On The Sound, it's our hidden therapy here in PT. I feel my Washington off-season depression drift away every time I book a pool. Thank you for visiting and supporting our little town! :)

[@explorationtogetherness4588]

We had a blast. Can't wait to visit again 😊

[@kristalmaes7667]

Super fun! Sam- bring Renae back to ETX when y’all come! I’d love to meet her! I’m following her videos from now on. We love to travel too.

[@debrahaecker1837]

Love you guys

[@cpwilliam2987]

When you saw the PT sign you were not really in PT, and the smell is the giant paper Mill down from that sign. But the smell leaves when you hit the business district. Great town to raise kids in. Beautiful!

[@Emzzz78]

Renae laughing at Sam dancing to 80’s music has me dead! I think you’re both younger than me and the 80’s are too old for my time. For nostalgia, 90’s music is my jam I’m so jealous!! Perfect match, perfect place, perfect LOVE!! You’re both so beautiful and kind and you deserve it!

@@explorationtogetherness4588 I remember going to a big bar the the interior was all nice wood but i don't remember the name this was in the late 80's i wonder if it is still there. Cheers

[@nicoleboulter5004]

@@SDsailor7 Unfortunetly, it's not here in Port Townsend any longer. It's been gone about 10 years. That's where my husband and I went for our first drink together 17 years ago. ❤ The space now houses a store called, The Conservatory. It is right next to the hotel where he used the payphone. That bar was so cool!

@@nicoleboulter5004 Yes it was a really cool bar and i remember that they had a set up to play live music. Port townsend is a really nice picturesque town. Cheers

[@SDsailor7]

@@nicoleboulter5004 To bad that the bar is gone. It had a lot of character.

[@MrSF247]

2:47 If you didn't realize, that smell is strong at that point. It's the local paper and pulp mill. If you turned right at that intersection entering town with the sign, it would've taken you there.

[@ginnyb7655]

At 5:00, that's Point Hudson, not Fort Worden. There are a few really great restaurants there.

Hey E.T.s don't forget to call home from time to time while you are out there Exploring Together!

FYI....Port Townsend is the place where many of Sausalito California expatriate s fled to!!! I would love to vis it. Safe Travels

[@donaldzergman7040]

That the paper mill that smells like that

[@lorriescott8775]

One more comment: the land you see straight our your hotel room is Indian Island, which is a munitions storage. All aircraft carriers, ships and nuclear subs stop before entering the Puget Sound and everything from food to bombs comes off there. They stop when departing for reloading.

[@patg6705]

Awesome - thanks for sharing

[@gracey.7078]

It's just so funny, I've lived in pt for my whole life and commute to school every day over that bridge, also that smell is the mill. I just find it so interesting that you guys are so fascinated with pt and down town.
