Chris absolutely rocks all the time but holy smokes she nailed the ferry driving!!! Aaron great minds think alike. As I was watching I thought boy that reminds me of Bayfield and Madeline Island. No commercial filming is a terrible rule for small little productions. It is not like you filmed a feature film-jeez. Years ago Little Sand Bay Ranger station was the first low flush toilet I ever saw. It had a big sign above the toilet that said pay attention as you might have to flush twice. Now there is some water savings LOL. Little Sand Bay is about ten miles outside Bayfield. One more and then I will shut up. Also years ago Isle Royale was talking about closing the island to everyone other except backpackers that came on the ferry. That would mean no divers and no fisherman. Someone formed a group to lobby against them and it was discovered that 89 percent of all boat traffic was from the NPS to maintain the island. They also said they wanted to preserve the shipwrecks. Preserve for what? It is quite the chore to go dive them so very few dives happen. It was rare to see another dive boat. Sorry rant is over. Just drives me nuts when stupid rules have no reason to be there. In through the mouth and out through the nose. The grass is green and the birds are chirping. All better now.

[@IreneIronTravels]

Good rant Dan! Let it all out! 😂

[@jjones5424]

It's funny that you mentioned the similarities of Ocracoke Island to Bayfield Wisconsin as that is where we live!! Happy Travels!!

[@kevincameron8437]

Interesting fact for Okracoak Island...there is a cemetery that has some German sailors from a U-Boat that was sunk off the NC coast. Great video again and thanks for sharing.

[@IreneIronTravels]

Interesting!

[@carmancloud]

“We’ll see about that!” 😆 😆😆 Looks like you did a great job with the driving, Aaron, and hopefully no other drivers made it a bad experience. I don’t think I’d enjoy driving some of those roads with my wide rig!

[@bumblebeehikes]

As someone who lives in NC, I absolutely love the OBX. Ocracoke is definitely worth the trip, even if for just the day. I'm not sure whether you did one of the wild pony tours in Corolla. If not, I highly recommend it for your next trip to the OBX.

[@shelleymcquillin7329]

Such a fun episode!!❤ But now a cliffhanger for next week...

[@TravelSmallLiveBig]

Awesome driving - both of you! Our friends got stuck on the island when a hurricane was approaching - we were at Oregon Inlet at the time. That little town looks amazing - I love the OBX!

[@grayfox9911]

That looked like a pretty place. I hope you enjoyed it and have fun!!

[@IreneIronTravels]

😊 thank you!

[@Desertfox92308]

Thanks for the great video. No thanks to the idiotic Government "rules" about filming! Just when you think it can't get much stupider!

Great video and Awesome driving!

[@IreneIronTravels]

Thank you! 👍

[@TTM-GEB]

We were there last week... Stayed in three of the National Parks on the beaches 😊

[@IreneIronTravels]

Nice! We did ocracoke, Frisco, and organ inlet. We liked ocracoke best. Which one did you?

[@k-mparker]

An inch is a mile!!! It was purdeeee dang close though on the ferry for both you and the Reflection.

[@RamblinRoadies]

I love your musical choices. Oh, cliffhanger for next week. 😮

[@TTM-GEB]

FYI - Places you can't film typically let you take pictures that you can edit into your KZbin post 😊

[@IreneIronTravels]

Their rules are clear as mud 😂 Hopefully it will all be changing soon with the new bill.

[@daveroberts1640]

I yelled Bayfield when you asked... You know what this reminds me of.... Love Bayfield!💜 (Mary Roberts)

[@IreneIronTravels]

Yes!

[@snowbirdlady7221]

I don't know the lead time for your vlogs, but they did just recently change the law again. Now you can film in the NPs!

[@IreneIronTravels]

It hasn’t yet passed into a law, but hopefully soon! 🤞

[@snowbirdlady7221]

@@IreneIronTravels Ah! I thought it was done. Yes, hopefully soon!

[@tammyscott9664]

@@IreneIronTravels I hope you can show video of those national parks once you’re safe to do so!

[@jordancook1668]

Just do it regardless. Nobody cares. Lots of youtubers who I'm tempted to rattle off but won't, have never stopped filming in the Parks and posting to the tube. Just be discreet and don't cause a big scene about it.

[@bertkelly7650]

No wonder Chris likes the truck, the orator of the GPS sounds almost like her.

[@IreneIronTravels]

Smacnally’s is the best…we always go there when we are on island!

[@barythompson4781]

At 3:24 that was the Abby Road of Irene Irons travels right there!

[@johnmusial699]

Im sure you had Red Drum. The fish you showed on the video is a black drum. Ive fished Ocracoke for 25 years. Great place. BTW you ever had red fish in the south (Fl, LA, TX etc) thatt is th same fish. Red Drum=Red Fish. Howards Pub always a good place to go

[@amandafields8277]

I think those ‘biting gnats’ you experienced are what we call No See ‘Ems. Lol, even though you can clearly see them it’s like they just get you out of nowhere hence no see ‘em (coming!) 😂. I live in SE coastal N.C.

[@melindamohler7066]

How was the drum fish?

[@IreneIronTravels]

Chris said it was good! Kinda a mild white fish.

[@ShawnPatterson402]

we spent several nights at that campground a couple years back. Absolutely loved the place. Will be back there for sure. Continued safe travels....

[@KaiTiura]

I hope you guys have cards you can hand out to folks that see you in your travels and do things like commenting on the Master piloting your home around things like ferries, etc, so you can grow your channel subs faster. You should have a million subscribers already! Hand out cards, talk yourselves up! We ALL want to live vicariously through you! Such fun adventures!

[@pattyk8594]

I hope you and the pups were okay with that security incident! I'll be keeping an eye out to see what happened?! Take care :o)

[@IreneIronTravels]

Thanks! It was a very sleepless night, but we all survived!

[@brucegustafson6943]

Another place to visit with our AI19!

[@ROLLMEAWAY]

I feel like you just blew through Ocracoke, maybe you stayed a little longer. Ocracoke is a place to savor as all of the outer banks. Meet some locals, learn the music scene, learn when each bar and restaurant has a special. One place will have music and 50 cent shrimp from 12-2, another from 2-4, another from 4-6, and so on. You can graze and dance the day away and not spend a fortune. Go kayaking on the sound, snorkel, swim, sun, and if you are lucky enough to be there to watch a full moon rise out of the water from your kayak while sipping some box wine…..what more can I say?

[@jordancook1668]

Wow, 45 bucks. That's what im talking about. Price one way from Port Angeles to Vancouver island for my truck and trailer would be nearly 250. Massive ripoff. That's a steal.

[@user-dr5cl8vi7i]

So what happens if you take a picture of the Lighthouse? You tube police?

[@michelleharrison-kintner1015]

Edward Teech lived there

[@IreneIronTravels]

I just learned about Blackbeard after the fact! So interesting!

[@yooperdog]

Hopefully you get to post the big crime scene episode. Law and Order outer banks unit. Great job on the ferry ride.

[@TheCathyrogers]

I think you were the ones who added external water tank sensor using Bluetooth. If so, could you please tell me the brand.

[@IreneIronTravels]

We haven't done that yet but I believe it's the Mopeka Pro thats popular. amzn.to/4ckmDIn

[@user-gd7oj4gc6q]

👍👍

[@chump6933]

story Whats the most trouble you ever got in

[@withdawind]

What gym would you recommend while traveling?

[@IreneIronTravels]

We used to use Planet fitness while living in the van, prior to covid shutting them down. They have a lot of locations and are affordable, but they don’t have barbells if you’re into barbells. Most of my client that travel use the loop bands that are linked in the description. They are small enough to pack in your bag and take everywhere so you don’t need to rely on gyms. - Chris

[@IreneIronTravels]

[@rmc94adventures42]

What’s the law for adding still pictures in your video for places that don’t allow commercial filming?

[@IreneIronTravels]

The rules are clear as mud! You don't need a permit for still photography unless you fall into 3 categories. One of them is you can't use a model. IE a person or object not of nature. So you could probably do landscapes or sunrise/sunset. But of course it doesn't say anything about putting those into videos later.....

[@JoeHasGotToGo]

It’s an inconvenient place to go to. Not many people go there

[@IreneIronTravels]

It’s worth it! 😊

[@seancasey2444]

How come Chris doesn't drive doesn't have a license maybe.

[@johnniejohnson73]

Chris is the lady and I think she does a great job driving.

[@situated4]

Your federal tax dollars go toward supporting all public national seashores and public lighthouses. You can film whatever you want whenever you want. Otherwise, makes absolutely no sense.

[@TruittGraves-xd9qd]

Why is she always doing the driving the man is supposed to drive

[@francoismassin8649]

Bravo! The sexist comment of the day goes to you 👎

[@amandafields8277]

I would ask why you say The Man and Supposed To but instead I recommend you check out a previous video these amazing folks made JUST for comments like this to explain that woman are allowed to drive too. Women aren’t SUPPOSED to sit back as a passenger.
