Exploring Charlotte with fellow YouTuber "RVing Illustrated"

Fellow KZbinr Brian Wood "RVing Illustrated" came to visit and together we went exploring Charlotte, North Carolina. Then I continued into South Carolina and its capital Columbia, and eventually end up by Charleston, my next destination. I go see this very cool Oak tree called the "Angel Oak"

Charlotte is my home town. Hope you enjoyed your visit.

[@TravelingRobert]

Yes I did

[@user-iu9dr3fp4o]

I use to live in Charlotte, I’ve been to every place that you went to. Charlotte is alright I’ve had a lot of good times there.

[@TravelingRobert]

Seems to be a fine city. Wish I had explored more.

[@RaGaZzAcCiO23]

[@almamorales4158]

I like Charlotte. Very nice video.

[@TravelingRobert]

Thank you

[@rogerchouinard3180]

Nice video in North Carolina and great narration! Thank you Robert for sharing!

[@RedJaguar100Travels]

Hi Robert, listening to you talk about your trip on the podcast is good but actually seeing it is awesome.. You really do your video justice by giving great reviews of the area.. Also good job hanging with Brian from RV Illustrated.

[@TravelingRobert]

Yes, hanging with Brian was cool.

[@ChickerysTravels]

Thanks for sharing your visit to Charlotte! We plan to explore The Carolinas in depth next year. We like to listen to a scanner app when we're at the airport too. You can hear the pilots and air traffic controllers talk to each other.

[@TravelingRobert]

Air traffic control chatter, while almost unintelligible is really cool to listen to. I'm glad you liked my video

[@loulamb]

Great video - and nice to see my band "The Rockaholics" make a cameo appearance at John's Place. Hope you enjoyed the tunes!

[@TravelingRobert]

Cool. They sounded great

[@GatorDwight]

Cool tree! Great video. Thanks for sharing!

[@kathyabel5338]

What a coincidence, I became a 1st time subscriber yesterday. Just now on I26 heading back to my home in Florida. I moved there from Charlotte 3 years ago. I was staying with my sister in Tega Fay. 2 miles from the campground. Johns was one of our favorite "hang outs". Very nice review of Charlotte NC. Thanks for the video.

[@TravelingRobert]

Cool, and thank you. I am glad you liked it. Charlotte definitely deserves a revisit with more time to explore.

[@RobertoLopezstudyis]

Your travel videos are so educational and informative. Thanks for showing us such beautiful places that the USA has!

[@AndrewLewer90]

Great Video as always Robert! Cheers from Italy -Andrew

[@robertomartinez6520]

Relax video ,gracias Robert.

[@TravelingRobert]

+Roberto Martinez Thank you

[@Viper-jk2pf]

How cute, there is a Publix! When I first located up to NC from Ft. Lauderdale I was missing Publix so bad. Finally found one. Now if I could only find some Cafe con leche...

[@TravelingRobert]

Cafe con leche I don't know, but it was nice to have a Publix when I was feeling down

[@Viper-jk2pf]

Traveling Robert There is only one Cuban restraunt in Concord and the food is mierda!

[@TravelwithNJSteveandSue]

One of our favorite places to visit is North & South Carolina. Looking forward to your video on Charleston! (we'll be down there in a few weeks for a wedding and can't wait to explore town)

[@TravelingRobert]

+Travel with NJ_Steve I am falling in love with the Carolinas as well

[@netposerx]

RDU Airport (Raleigh, NC) has an over-look park too that's really cool.

[@TravelingRobert]

Cool, maybe I'll visit Raleigh one of these days

[@netposerx]

Let me know. And don't forget about the Outer Banks are here too.

[@hummer4u2nv11]

Nice travel Robert, again you take me back to memory lane :-) I been Charlotte, Lake Norman, and surrounding areas many times. Fun fact: next time you go downtown Charlotte visit Fuel Pizza (Tryon Street) that is the place where they filmed Shallow Hal in 2001 and Gwen Paltrow broke the chair :-D There is some signs inside showing the movie scene. If people don't know - then watch movie so funny! Also do you have more video coming to show Charleston...? That area Charleston, Savannah, and St Augustine have similar histories and if you spend much time at each city you notice they resemble each other in many ways.

[@TravelingRobert]

+Hummer4u2nv Cool. I'll check out Fuel Pizza next time.

[@airsoft69]

wonderful vlog as always

[@TravelingRobert]

Thank you

[@TheWoodsOnline]

Woohoo! I made it on Roberts KZbin channel. Hehe. Wish we had more time Robert. Perhaps another time. Maybe we can go do that Sasquatch hunting. lol

[@TravelingRobert]

+RVing Illustrated Definitely!

[@rvninnorthcarolina3377]

Fun fact, there are many, many transplant Floridians in the Charlotte area. I moved to Mooresville 6 years ago from Fort Lauderdale and I not looked back. I was at a taproom a couple of years ago and the majority of the people in the bar were from Florida..actually all were except one from Michigan....none for NC!. Born and raised in Fort Lauderdale, but it has become too crowded for me. Moved to a rural area near Lake Norman and love it. I still like to go "home" but I see it as a tourist now.

[@TravelingRobert]

I will too migrate north at some point... maybe a piece of land in the mountains. South Florida has gotten too crowded, too stressful, too expensive

[@Viper-jk2pf]

Funny to see you pass right by my house in Mooresville. ..

[@TravelingRobert]

Cool! Small world

[@grandmapatty1493]

That building definitely looked like a bottle opener, but that (unfinished on purpose) "Tower of Babel" building is creepy. I have my R Pod in my driveway. It's so cute!!!

[@TravelingRobert]

+Grandma Patty That's great that you have your R-Pod. Happy trails!

[@scottlynch3553]

HAHAHA... I'm starting to think your following me. First Matlacha, now Charlotte. Hope you have a great time and safe travels. Just for the record, I love the Matlacha life style soooo much better.

[@TravelingRobert]

Hmmm, where are going next... just kidding. Matlacha is a very special place.

[@scottlynch3553]

I hear Aruba is nice this time of year! Hope you had a good time in Charlotte.

[@reyzayas3775]

very good video robert

[@TravelingRobert]

Thank you

[@yvesfleche1782]

un plaisir de vous suivre

[@TravelingRobert]

Merci

[@Conman2511]

[@israeliteram8503]

Robert, very nice video and commentary around Charlotte, Mooresville and Lake Lur...oops, Lake Norman. (Lake Lure is a wonderful area, by Chimney Rock from whence you drove to Charlotte.) My stomping ground is/has been for many years, about an hour west of Charlotte. I've been boating and fishing on Lake Norman. The drive from the valley town of Chimney Rock up to the rock is a beautiful 12-15 minute trip. You can easily find views from the rock, overlooking Lake Lure and area. I see you uploaded this video, middle October. I guess you were only days early for the gorgeous, Appalachian autumn colors. My latest drive up to the top, Nov 22, 2017, as the colors were diminishing. The uploaded video is very good, but for whatever reason, KZbin's return streaming of it is horrendous. Come back when you have some time. The elk, bears and other homies may add to your imaging. Your video editing is very good. Oh, I just saw your Chimney Rock State Park video on the right, haha. Again, very nice depiction of Charlotte. (Back. I just watched your CR video and think it's one of the best of the area. You may know there is an elevator from a tunnel behind the Cliff Dwellers souvenier shop to the level of the rock. It has been closed for a long time for repairs. It was still out of order when I was there recently. I came back to this video to speak well of your Chimney Rock video. Maybe it'll send some people from here to it. Okay, I'm gone. Thanks again.)

[@TravelingRobert]

We really liked Chimney Rock. Thank you so much!

[@simplyme9347]

love your voice:)

[@TravelingRobert]

Thank you!

[@HikeBikeWalkRide]

Be sure to check out Magnolia Plantation while you are there It is truly beautiful.

[@TravelingRobert]

OK, will do... next time

[@skpjoecoursegold366]

thanks for the preview, i'll be there at the end of Nov. 2017.

[@TheWoodsOnline]

SKPjoe Coursegold where you going to be? Charlotte or Charleston?

[@skpjoecoursegold366]

well neither. i'll be along the coast in North Carolina: Chocowinity, Newport, Cedar Point for 16 days. and about 80 miles south of Charleston in Yemassee, SC Charlotte i drove around last May.

[@TravelingRobert]

+SKPjoe Coursegold Enjoy!

[@ajfamily4566]

If ever in Oakland city, Indiana you guys gotta try John's BBQ truly enjoyable

[@TravelingRobert]

I'll write that one down. Thank you!

[@StewartHines]

Following along on Google Maps again.

My neck of the woods for 12 years. NC is not the place to be. 😂 I prefer Georgia

[@nielgregory108]

He screwed you by not stopping at What A Burger drive-in 8:01 and going to that gimicky place.

[@lorrilewis2178]

Try visiting Greenville, SC. They have a beautiful downtown with a waterfall.

[@TravelingRobert]

I will... almost did this trip

[@leazer44]

Why didn’t you take your wife to Charleston? Are you still together?

[@TravelingRobert]

She had to go back to Miami for work. Of course we're still together.

[@K2Kevin]

I hate RV parks that are “parking lots”, unless it’s just a stop over for one night, I avoid them. I have seen some nice RV parks change to parking lots to capitalize on popularity of RVing. Maximize the land you have does make sense, but at what cost? I guess state parks is more my style, but I’m sure we will see the same from them as Trump cuts all funding to what RVers enjoy most.

[@TheWoodsOnline]

I agree. The KOA Robert stayed at is one of the better options for going into Charlotte. Unfortunately, there are not any RV parks in the area that automatically comes to mind that you "should" stay at in the Charlotte area. They are either parking lots as mentioned, not a nicer option, or if they are nice, and then they are 40 miles from Uptown Charlotte. You have Lake Norman State Park up near where I live, but it's 40 miles from Charlotte and its not that great of a place for RV's. The sites are really unlevel and there are no hookups. There's a couple county parks that are closer, but I have only driven through one and I think it may be worse than the state park. Carowinds has a rv park and with some work, it could be nicer. Especially for what they charge. But you will have the noise of the park.

[@TravelingRobert]

+K2 Generally if you want to be close to a city you're stuck with a parking lot.

[@K2Kevin]

That's true, I guess I missed that fact in my thought process.
