IT"S ALWAYS BEEN ON THE BUCKET LIST - VAN LIFE OREGON [S7-E31]

[@MacTravellers]

There were some iconic movies back then but The Goonies really stands out, it was excellent.

[@randyward2766]

I went to high school in Oregon. The coast is such a great place to sit and relax (or brood). The sea spray and overcast skies really makes for a mood.

[@RoadTrippin4life]

Your spirit is contagious, you 2 are my favorite couple. I plan to start van life when I retire. 5 months and counting, searching for a van now.

[@TREADtheglobe]

Fantastic !! Enjoy and may you enjoy the open road 🚐🙌🌺

[@audramitchell9894]

Delightful you got to visit Oregon . Was hoping you had 🌹❤️🌹

[@mikewatanabe9273]

Been enjoying your travels since our travel to Turkey since last year. Happy Trails from WA. TRAVEL TO ALASKA IS AWSOME.

[@audramitchell9894]

Enchanting sunset 🌹❤️🌹

[@always.wondering.wandering]

Love the Oregon Coast. Glad you got your Goonies fix, I loved that movie too. I tried to live in Florence, Or. there on the coast for 6 mo. during Winter. My head could not take the storms moving in and out, too many headaches. I'll just have to keep it as a non-Winter destination, it's so beautiful. Have a good week ahead, enjoy!

[@TREADtheglobe]

Fantastic coast ... yep summer is always better by the sea 🌷

[@dominicsquibb8670]

Don't hate me - never seen the Goonies! You're nearly where my wife and I had our honeymoon - Seattle! Thanks again for a great video - the miles you drive really put driving in the UK into perspective!

[@TREADtheglobe]

You are welcome and glad you are enjoying the videos - Yep Trudy will need a holiday soon LOL 🙌

[@HaniTiby]

I think this is the first time I see you so happy, especially Chris

[@nurtenfoster6731]

OMG, that was a riot and you had us laughing so hard with the sneaker waves! I wish I was there too, lol!

[@audramitchell9894]

Delightful laughter ❤️🌹❤️

[@sallycatlin5903]

love waking up to you both on a Sunday morning! Really enjoyed this episode. Just love the Oregon coastline.

[@TREADtheglobe]

Thanks Sally - we appreciate that ! xx

[@FreddieWanders]

Phwoar that sunset ❤️😍🌊 awesome video guys, all the best wishes

[@22patch22]

lovely marianne and chris forever dispelling the myth that British people are reserved.

[@lindataylor6093]

Loved this. Wow to the scenery. We may have to watch the Goonies now hehe x

[@helenmoat6456]

Drove the Oregan coast some years ago. It was an amazing trip.

[@nickergun4943]

What a lovely video this was ambassadors! Your laughs at the beach gives me energy. I have to be honest but have not seen goonies. Now it is my " must watch list" A couple of points; I do not recall the date but once there was a Tsunami warning there and people run to the shore to watch it and did not see what they were expecting to see, like 5 - 10 feet or 20 feet waves. They all are disappointed and went back, thinking that there was no Tsunami. However, tsunami hit there and created only 2 inches of waves ( coming from Japan, therefore it was dispersed). Now, Geologists are worried that some people will believe that the Tsunami is nothing to worry about and will be at the beach, however, this time it may create a disaster that may claim lifes. St. Helen is 1980 May 18, I recall this due to my birthday is being on May 17. The volcanologist died there just to get one more reading ( of the released gases, Sulfur especially).He warned everyone to evacuate because he predicted that St. Helen can erupt anytime but himself went ahead for one more measurement and got killed that horrendous explosion. Sorry, the stories were long. However, thank you for taking us with these lovely trips for FREEEE. love you guys. Be safe🇹🇷🇹🇷❤️❤️💗💗👍👍👍

[@TREADtheglobe]

Thanks Nick - we appreciate your information and love that you are so passionate about teaching others !! You should have a Nick the Rock Guy youtube channel - I would watch !! Love from us and thanks again xx

[@thom8728]

You are in my favorite part of the US! Love watching your videos every Sunday, it makes my day! When you head back down from Alaska don't miss Multnomah Falls just outside of Portland in the Columbia Gorge, you won't regret it!!

[@bigrobsvan]

Fun trip! I lived in Washington state for a while and that area of the country sure is pretty. Goonies (and Vanlifers) never die!

[@TREADtheglobe]

Epic !!

[@mountainprepper2998]

The Goonies was a great movie.

[@jeremynkelley]

“I don’t know what happened but it’s raining” #oregon Lol ☺️🌲

[@toddramsay977]

I guarantee you not going to get the boys tea bagging the water. The Pacific waters is cold, you need a wet suit. I am surprised Mary Anne is getting her Lady parts in there. Grea video. Be sure to enjoy the seafood and chowder of the PNW ( Pacific North West )

[@pelinbulent4892]

Never seen the Goonies. It Oregon is beautiful- make sure you don’t get sleepless in Seattle 😁😁

[@TREADtheglobe]

LOL !! We are avoiding cities at the moment ... but finding some lovely remote places and wildlife 🌺

[@jomcd2073]

What beautiful scenery:)

[@rcpeterson56]

Mount Saint Helens erupted in May of 1980.

[@nickthomas181]

HEY YOU GUYS!

[@TREADtheglobe]

Ha Ha !! I love that

[@janisaschim2429]

Welcome to Oregon.

[@thudson4407]

Good Morning!! So lovely to see my favorite travelers!

[@thorthorsen4482]

Tho anywhere in the Pacific could have a Tsunami your particular Tsunami warning is a real genuine LOCAL one. The Cascadia Subduction zone runs from Vancouver Island in Canada, all of Washington, all of Oregon down to Eureka in California. Any place that the Cascade Volcanoes exist. Northern part averages a Mega Quake causing a Tsunami about 500 years & southern part 250 years. The last one occurred Jan 26,1700

[@TREADtheglobe]

Wow - thank you for the information - we can not believe the weather / climates that we have been through - the diversity in North America in Vistas and landscapes / weather etc - have been astounding !! Speak soon - Marianne xx

[@anthonyellis1409]

It's was a fantastic film

[@sherriemitchell3892]

So much fun!

[@madylenizeron451]

Im a big fan and love watching your videos, when are you guys coming to Los Angeles?

[@TREADtheglobe]

Thank you Carmen 🙌

[@tkine97]

LOL You got video-bombed at 17:28m in your video.

[@jonmcfarland3832]

you shouldve gone up hwy1 from SF to Ft Bragg and then turned up hwy101. Russian river and Mendocino areas are not to miss.

[@jonmcfarland3832]

BTW if you want sun then Oct is the best time to visit Nor Cal coastline.

[@vallagirl01]

I’m sure is saw some gum trees!

[@josverschuur779]

hello chris, is that the way you controle your oil??? i have learnt to do it another way by my oldtimer. before traveling with an cold motor, take the stick out, clean it put it back and check it again if the oil is between the 2 maks ( max and min ) it is good. the way you do it by only taken out the stick ones it could be more because oil did not drop down. and stood high on the stick.

[@serdarcayan7691]

👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@the_mum]

No better highway in the world.

[@smiller8133]

Are you guys on a diet or fasting or just sick of American food? .... first time I haven't seen you stop for a bite to eat!

[@TREADtheglobe]

LOL ... it is just super expensive and we cook more in the van than before - we can share what we eat in the van if that is something that would interest anyone ? M xx

[@TruthHurts2u]

What's wrong with bridges in the UK?

[@mariaandbryan]

Congrats on those 100k miles! When we were doing RV life in the US we sadly had to avoid CA for the gas prices and that was back in 2018, I can only imagine how it is now. The Pacific is amazing indeed! Wow! Wish we were there with you! The goonies were awesome! Enjoy Seattle! Well, and the antarctic!

[@TREADtheglobe]

Thanks Friends xx We wish you were with us too - maybe a reunion ... speak soon and can't wait to see your faces xx Love M + C xx And thank you for keeping an eye on the channel whilst we were off grid - xx 💜

[@joanneyoung8571]

[@georgelicerio6806]

Great video y’all “HEY YOU GUYS “ love the goonies

[@Charlotte-qo4jc]

Glad for you guys that you got time for the OR coast. It is absolutely stunning and unique. If you come down trough OR again are you welcome to park by our house outside Portland. Dane living in the US. LOVE your fun, and cheerful videos.

[@TREADtheglobe]

Thanks Charlotte that is very kind of you - not sure of our route after our BC / Alaska trip but we'll share

[@sandy89107]

I love the Goonies....seen it a bunch of times! "Holes the size of Motza Balls"! (About jeep bullet holes) 😅

[@lynnbittner5190]

Beautiful coastal road - great episode ! Love the Goonies movie....a classic 🤩

[@lorimajewski4592]

Hey guys welcome to Oregon. At least it's not raining Lori

[@janewalford4383]

Lovely to take the coastal road, must get boring on the freeway clocking up the miles.

[@Bllex36]

I actualy met you in real life And you gave me fuel

[@sandramelara7664]

I love ❤️‍🔥your happiness !! ☺️

[@mesutozsen903]

[@dougb100]

As an ex Brit living in British Columbia, Canada my wife & I have travelled this coast line several times in an MGB convertible, great road for convertible driving.

[@sailingstonerose]

Wow, you really are traveling through states quickly. It is like the drive thru fast food version of adventure travel.

[@juliehively8322]

I love this episode! I grew up near Cannon Beach and spent alot of time there. The Northwest is beautiful. I love watching these videos.

[@Two_in_transit]

Congratulations to Trudy for hitting the 100K miles mark x

[@OTWD_yt]

Hey guys just discovered your channel look forward to catching up on your videos **Subscribed** 😊

[@TREADtheglobe]

Hey - thanks !! 🙌

[@audramitchell9894]

Sentimental moments ❤️🌹❤️ You made a stop in Astoria . I lived there as a child . Haven't been there sense 2011

[@motivate-today]

You've goony long way to get to that place!

[@toddramsay977]

They get possible tsunamis from Alaska originated earthquakes or from Japan earthquakes.

[@Peedee773]

Its so good to see these beautiful places through you two.i m enjoying thoroughly. Thank you.

[@bobbutcher7725]

What a trip and more to come. Sold up ALL your belongings, except your house, good move and very shrewd move 👍

[@toddramsay977]

In Astoria, OR you can view the Goonies house. It is privately owned so you can’t go in but you can view the outside.

[@carolb3270]

There are some scenes of Goonies that were also filmed at Goat Rock where the Russian River comes out to the ocean and very close to Bodega Bay! Goat Rock Beach | Especially at the end of the movie.

[@aliciathom3463]

It’s amazing and a bit surreal to have met you both, and Trudy, at the coast of our current home, in Turkey, and now to see all three of you on the coast of our beloved Oregon, our home for 18 years! ❤️

[@TREADtheglobe]

Wow !! That is surreal indeed !! Sending love from us (and who knew Trudy could do it !!?) Love M xx

[@travelers5062]

You'll need to stop in Hope BC when you get to Canada to see the Rambo filming locations. we the there in early June, it was raining that day so the hike up the mountain and falls was close. Maybe you get a better day. Hope is on Hy3/TransCanada Highway Loving your videos If you have any questions on the Canadian Rockies, we just did the road trip in May/June 2022

[@TREADtheglobe]

Hey - thank you so much for the information - we have been off grid (sorry for the late reply) Glad you are enjoying the videos 🌷

[@lekis57]

I’m wondering what you think about the USA?

[@margarettownsley9500]

Fantastic video guys loved it although I recognise the name gobies I’ve never seen it

[@alimuradidambora697]

🥰🥰😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍🥰Very Good 😍😍

[@dcal1452]

Interesting...the Jeep in the movie was a manual transmission (could see it when Mama Fratelli was driving it), but this one is an automatic. They must have used a few different Jeeps or something. Also, interesting how the actor who plays Brand, Josh Brolin, would become one of the biggest villians in movie history, Thanos. He was also Cable in Deadpool 2. Great video as always!

[@levinawalsh2015]

Fantastic as Always Guys 👍. The goonies brought me back, That was Wonderful. Safe travels. ☘💐.

[@Lastseensomewhere]

1000,000 miles congratulations 🥂🥂🥂🥂poor Trudy ..!!! She’s an absolute trooper…best advert ever for fiat camper vans…they should be paying you both …!!!!

[@TREADtheglobe]

Hi - we moved fast to get the weather window up in Alaska, Yukon and NWT - we will be heading south soon 👍

[@pt712]

Got you. Good luck 🤞

[@deb5710]

Beautiful footage, loved it! Oregon and Washington state are on my list of places to see. Stay safe & Happy Trails!

[@TREADtheglobe]

Fantastic

[@chrisfolkharmonicaplayer6292]

Glad you like the Oregon Coast. Cannon Beach has been our favorite coastal destination. Yes the ocean water is always cold here . You’ll only see surfers with their wet suits brave the ocean. You mention in the start of the video that campgrounds start at $60. Many are cheaper , Like state parks are around $30 a night with a hookup. Included are nice restrooms with showers. Forest Service campgrounds are around $ 20 per night , but no hookups available.

[@janetmcfarlane2693]

Just love your episodes - went from Alberta on a trek some years ago, and ended up going on the Oregon coastline, and some interesting towns and places. Watching you two there sure brought back some memories, so thank you for that! So interesting and enjoyable to watch. Enjoy your trip north to Alaska,,,,

[@Aaron-P]

*Excellent* shout taking US 101 over Interstate 5! Frankly, since Astoria was a non-negotiable, I don't think the interstate would have saved much time after driving inland and back out to the coast. Northern California and Oregon has such a gorgeous and rugged coastline! 🤩🤩 Welcome to Sticker Club, Terry and Kathy! ❤️❤️ Watching Chris recapture his childhood had me grinning so much my cheeks hurt! 😁😁😁 -Goofballs-, I mean, Goonies never say die!!! Love that Astoria is celebrating their film history. She's a real gem, that town. ❤️❤️😎👍xx

[@TREADtheglobe]

Awwh it was so great to meet up - I hope we can do it again !! Yep Terry and Kathy are a great addition to the Tread Tribe 🌷 and the sticker tribe !! xx

[@nelsonloveridge7467]

Love you guys ❤

[@edwardlong9470]

When I retired inn 1998 I took a trip to Oregon, I also took my bike, I cycled down 101 from the state border to Red Lodge just outside Lincoln city. My cycling came to an end there, I was visiting my oldest friends when I went down a step to their house, the step collapsed under me. The result was a badly sprained ankle twice it's normal size, No more cycling. The point of this story was I was ferried around by my two sets of friends and saw far more of Oregon than I would have on my bicycle. I went to where Captain Cook landed, over the bridge at the 'smallest harbour' in the world Saw the super lighthouses, fell in love with Seaside where Lewis and Clarke's journey across America ended, The first Europeans to do so. Ate fabulous seafood Dunwich crabs and Diablo oysters, went to the City of Roses, Portland and went up to the Columbia River the state line with Washington.The only downside I saw was the stripping of the trees of the temperate forest leaving swaves of ugly barren patches. Oregon's Pacific coast is wonderful. Carry on having a great journey I am looking forward to more travel tales. Oh, I almost forgot the whales which migrate up the coast.

[@TREADtheglobe]

Wow - sounds like an epic trip !!

[@dizzynikki5912]

[@TREADtheglobe]

You could really feel the love for the Goonies here and everyone was walking around repeating the expressions ... Goonies never say DIE !!

[@CLFL14256]

going to be so interesting for me from next episode onwards, we drove from Seattle to Anchorage via the Cassiar Highway and through the Yukon via Dawson City and the TOW highway. Loving all your adventures and yes, the miles ne drives in America are insane

[@TREADtheglobe]

Oh wow - Epic !!

[@fionaodwyer9371]
