Hitchhiking on these small islands is a common way to get around and a fantastic way to meet locals. Even before the rain started, we had at least a few people stop to offer us rides. We were happy to stretch our legs and take in the place at a walking pace. Plus, how are we going to ask to be dropped off at the blue eyed eels when we don't speak Tahitian or French?!? But, once the weather turned, we were stoked they were keen to pick up a couple of soggy Americans.

"It's not the weather, it's the gear!" (and usually the attitude). Really liked the waking up in paradise lead into the intro!

[@Iexpedite1]

Me and some friends were lost in the mountains outside of Marseille. We were on a poorly marked hiking trail and got lost. After several hours we found a town and water but we were miles from our car. We headed cross country because night would fall if we took the road. We made it to the next road and started thumbing for a ride. A French couple stopped in a tiny hatchback to pick the 3 of us up. We all managed to squeeze in and the woman started talking to us in broken English. She was young and beautiful with a bright smile and big pregnant belly. Her husband was driving and they had just returned from an area hospital getting a pregnancy checkup. They drove us all the way to our car. We were miles out of their way but they took us anyway. We cobbled together some gas money and tried to repay some of their kindness. They were a great young couple. She was so excited to use her English. She was terrible but far better than any of our French. That baby she was carrying would be about 20 years old now. Thanks for bringing back the memory.

[@aharami]

That's a fantastic memory!

[@Scrambler85]

I always give a thumbs up before the video starts. Wet or dry your videos make me smile.

[@bryanc.8441]

Same here. Only because it's better than anything on TV .

[@CesarGonzalez-kt7vp]

In Huahine 35 plus years ago, remember it like it was yesterday. When you pronounced the island name Wahine I was wait a minute, have I been saying it wrong all these years!? Glad you got drenched!!!! And I'm sure that was the best Papaya you ever had!! Cheers Guys from Foggy San Francisco!!!

[@journey2fifty]

Just another amazing Gone With the Wynn’s adventure :)

[@Beanieweenieable]

Sunday morning with Jason and Nikki yay!

[@cfeigel]

Into each life a little rain must fall.

[@RickLaLande]

There are good people in this world!!

[@robertadamsmetaldetecting6324]

Your energy and enthusiasm is contagious! Please keep the hits coming!

[@TheWorldofDonnie]

so much adventure to be had in the rain, was smiling the whole time. :) the locals seem so hospitable & kind.

[@Jim.Hummel]

Totally incredible...but I'm always on edge when Nikki is "interacting" with plant life! What a #Wynnerful adventure!

[@Maggie-eo3rd]

Very Happy to see enjoying what God dishes out! The food, romance and rain! 🐌😋

[@kev64037]

Your lifestyle is one most can only dream about,.... Or live it through your videos. My wife and I are nearing our retirement years, (4 more years). Seems like we are always working, or doing stuff for others. We talk about our retirement soon to come like the day we can live and have fun. I regret that. Who waits to retire to have fun? Life gets too busy. Have followed you since early RV days. There will never be an "end of the road" for you, but more like, "Let's go back and see what we missed!". Thanks for sharing!

[@Happybidr]

Two thumbs up for all the nice people on that island!

[@rpbajb]

Rainy weather is fun too. I've been in the Appalachians in a three day rainstorm. Despite good gear, you do get completely soaked. But good news, a big enough fire WILL burn and dry you out.

[@mrnickbig1]

It is amazing how much more happy and healthy Nikki and Jason look, compared to almost 3 years ago, when they started sailing!

[@mikebyrnes1397]

Just now catching up on all your adventures. Love the subtitle that "Nikki is always this stubborn" IMO, THAT is the mark of some one that has character. I'm always hopeful for my fellow stubborn people that they have a caring person that is important in their life that is willing to show support and also appreciate that stubbornness (with a bit of gentle, caring guidance) to end up with the fruits of life (pun intended). Thanks for sharing your adventures, Jason & Nikki!

[@clay.willoughby]

It's 8 a.m., and Sunday it's time for Gone with the Wynn's!!!!

[@minimalmillionairemom]

What nice, friendly local people! Beautiful even in the rain.

[@ymjessica1]

Nikki’s allergic to mangoes: picks up every mango she sees 😂😘 ❤️

[@adrianmusteata888]

Your positive energy and attitude is inspirational. This enhances the value of your videos.

[@amandawilk5316]

In bed in my rv, love Sundays for sleeping in! Pulled up my Sunday KZbin faves to watch as usual on my phone & started watching until the intro and remembered I finally have internet and can watch y'alls movies on my TV! Pulling it up there now because y'alls stuff deserves that quality. Thanks for sharing these beautiful adventures! You two are an inspiration to me. Love from ATX ♡

[@leslievalenciano-lopez8887]

What a gorgeous island! How kind of the locals to give you guys rides to and from! Love your videos!!!

[@jimnasium1957]

I love you two. I can always count on a smile watching both of you! By the way, Nikki will always win the wet t-shirt contest Jason. ;)

[@Thomas-eu6fj]

Yours is probably the best sailing videos on KZbin. It's so relaxing to watch....not a rollercoaster ride like other sailing videos.

[@jochenludewig8857]

Spectacular! You are right about lunch with the Gods...I thing the 'Big Fella' was having a good day when he created the Polynesian Islands AND who cares if it does rain! Another great adventure from the intrepid crew....thanks for sharing.

[@mmclem1112]

My favorite channel amazing Gone With the Wynn’s adventure. Keep bringing us a long .

[@3Dprint4you]

First! Love getting notice of a new video from the Wynn’s.

[@layrathompson2869]

You two are always fun to watch.. Appreciate all of the work you guys put into your videos - Wish MOST of who watched would do the thumbs up!!!

[@wildwestunlimited]

Maybe next video you guys can show how you prepared and ate all that fruit that you guys collected. I love how the awesome locals just picks you guys up and takes you to where you need to go. Awesome people!!! Thanks for taking us along with you!!

[@beebo55]

Beautiful video, each episode gets better and better. Expertly shot and edited to create a unique viewing experience. Eighteen minutes and fifty-two seconds of calming, pure and delightful entertainment!

[@kenpole3058]

The dropped mangoes reminded me of a walk upriver from Hilo; there were so many under one huge tree that the footing was treacherous. 😀⛵️🇨🇦

[@2SelfBTrue]

Your adventures are so wonderful and you two make it simply great to watch, then I see that there are ignorant people who give you a thumbs down, I am so sorry there are people who cannot see the beauty you bring us via these videos, places I would never get to see otherwise, the thumbs down says a whole lot more about them than you. Wow what beautiful wood that was on that red tree that had been cut. Again Jason you gave me a good laugh with your awesome dancing. Nikki I love your narrations of the fruit and flowers. I saw no rain coats but you handled the rain with dignity and grace, again thank you both.

[@devangel3614]

Beautiful island, beautiful people, beautiful couple having fun, it does not get any better except for this gorgeous video--I could almost feel and smell the rain and flowers!

[@bobbibradley57]

I think you two set the standard for the world's longest Honeymoon - we should all aspire to the example you set!

[@unconventionalme8048]

I HOPE you guys know how much your vids add to us that get to watch! They just add a how heck of a lot of uplift, and smiles! Love you both!

[@keithcope8113]

Wow the islands all seem to get more pretty than the last ones beautiful sunset thanks for sharing stay safe

[@seanymodizzle4785]

Magical...love hiking in the rain. Thanks for sharing the adventure!

[@JoseRivera-lt2cc]

Thank you for sharing the friendship you both enjoy with each other.

[@JohnWright-fb4db]

I loved Nikki's "There's no such thing as bad weather...."

[@ciegacita]

i spend every sunday morning watching you guys

[@alanrhyason]

Oh, forgot to mention. I was in Huahine in 1996 and found it to be an amazing island. Really loved my time there. Okay, thats it. Safe travels Earth Warriors.

[@ChristinaColoradoan]

KILLER SUNSET! I was laughing because when it's wet, the audio sounds like a Coleman lantern is in the background 👍🌞🌞🌞🌞

[@alanrhyason]

I love this video, well, really I love all your vids. Specifically walking through the local neighborhoods , just exploring, picking up fruit thats fallen like you did. Its just the best isn't it! Nikki, I'd eat that mango that fell, haha. And again, you guys are so enjoyable to watch. Love all the video angles and clips and techniques, really makes for a very awesome show. Thank you so much for opening up your lives, your hearts and the journey. Peace.

[@Eyagsf]

You guys represent Texans in such an awesome way❤️⚪️💙 Thank you for creativity, energy and kindness🌈

[@lordstephen7813]

Second time through, just as good 🤗 "Rain is but liquid sunshine."

[@howard977]

My Wife and I wait for every video of yours for years . Much love from Niagara Falls N.Y. .

[@ralphkeyser5084]

Breathtaking sunset. It felt like a reward for being soaked all day!

[@KrisH-kp9vx]

Even in the rain the trail was beautiful. Another captivating adventure!

[@christineminer2117]

Wonderful story telling and......major points for eating off the land combined with the nod to Steve Irwin! Have a great day! Thanks for the video

[@atomicclock455]

Beautiful rainbow...what a nice adventure...thank you for sharing..

[@kamranameri]

The GOD’S have shines on me today not only did I have knot another beautiful Sunday with the Wynn’s but I also got to see tiger win the masters I am in heaven.............

[@brianjoyce9040]

Wake up most Sundays to the Nikki & Jason Show, many thanks to starting my day with smiles & wonder guys. Never stop!

[@clarisd]

We really love your adventures and that you share them!!! Thank you! Without dreams life is somewhat hollow! Your throwing yourselves into this has us looking towards what we would like to throw ourselves into!

[@LuizSchmidt]

Thee lightness you transmit makes it seems so easy what you do... but we know how hard you work to enlighten our Sundays. Thank you!

[@ellabella2603]

I think I would have given up at the first museum. I hate walking in wet shoes. So thanks for taking us along so I don’t have to get my feet wet. 😏 👍

[@chris-cole]

Only 1 thing better than dining with the Gods, that is binge watching Gone with the Wynns ❤ I just adore how you got offered the lift, and you just made that decision with trusting beautiful people, with such freedom and zest for exploration! I'm so frickin jealous but so happy for you guys ❤

[@garyherlth9031]

Nikki its awesome watching you guys walk around in the rain. As long as there is no lightning its so soothing to watch you guys.

[@jamesfeng7689]

Like the sunset, I enjoy the vid before bed time to finish the day..... Thank you

[@wallaceloper637]

AT10.59 roadrunner( chicken ) steals the show. love the sunset.

[@drwindsurf]

Such an amazing adventure...I love your positive attitude and outlook. Thank you for another amazing video :)

[@RichardKPayne]

Great video. And Nikki's always present smile even being caught in a downpour is refreshing. Quick weather update from home, We had a weekend of storms and tornados. Most severe in East Texas.

[@gonewiththewynns]

Eek, hopefully no major damages. I have so many stormy memories from growing up in West Texas. Watching the tornadoes drop down and then running into the cellar when my grandmother would yell at me. Gathering softball sized hail and storing it in the freezer just to oogle at. 🌪️ It's a wild and sometimes unforgiving season. Stay safe!

[@RichardKPayne]

@@gonewiththewynns I really wish I could report some good news but there was extensive damage to Alto and to the Caddo Mounds. The park office at Caddo Mounds is gone. Also on a sadder note the last report I heard was 4 deaths due to the tornados. Also being a lifelong Texan this is something we expect in the spring. This band of storms came in farther South than normal. Bright and sunny now. Keep the videos coming, I am living my retirement dream vicariously through ya'll.

[@charlesbreaux5475]

yuz guys are the best couple and sailing vids on the tube. One heart, as us old hippies used to say.

[@evanmitton5007]

Wow what a fun day for you two,the rain is like salt lake city today ! We hope to see the sun also🌞😸😺✌

[@tomwilliams8675]

Such beautiful places in the world we would have never seen if you guys didn't bring us there. That's so much ❤

[@kittmiller2212]

Making New Friends, I love it their for the kindness always shown to Americans, What an awesome day trip.

[@EKCSEVEN]

T😁😅 FUNNY, "don't quit your day job" wait, you already did 😄 may GOD BLESS you two 😍 🌴hank you for ⛵haring 🌴

[@ronbuckner8179]

Yunno, I remember scouting trips like that in Washington state in 40 degrees as a scout master 20 years ago with 25 boys from 12 to 16. It was just as fun (for them! - You have no idea how glad I am that it's a memory!)

[@kamranameri]

Nothing better then watching the Wynn’s!!!! Who needs a rental car when you have such great people on these islands always happy to give a hand to someone.

[@lindawoodall822]

Love this episode. You guys are too much! Who doesn't want to go to Huahine after watching this??

[@alexisr5199]

Such nice people giving you rides. Gives me faith in our society. Much love to you both for the videos. xoxo

[@cleeshann1928]

WOW WOW! YOU TWO ARE JUST AWESOME! What a wonderful video. I think that was one of the Best Videos you two have made. What Life you both put into your videos and each other! What a magical place. Love you guys so much! Can't get enough of your videos.
