Discovering Kansas City - Lewis and Clark Episode 14

[@ArabiaSteamboatMuseum]

Thanks for the visit, Robert! And thank you for the kind words on our little museum. Shoot us a note the next time you're in town! And yes, we too are a bit worried about losing some of the "magic" this museum has if we move into another facility - we'll do our best to try and recapture it in the next spot. Subscribed.

[@TravelingRobert]

Glad you liked it. I certainly will. Maybe the new museum will be open by then.

[@ricsmith2185]

Thank you Robert and great job showcasing our fantastic City. I live just a few blocks from Joe's BBQ and planned on attending the meet and greet but had to change plans. Travel safe and God bless!

[@carolcalton4720]

Thank you for showcasing Kansas City so beautifully. Also thanks for including Union Station and Liberty Memorial they are both incredibly special.

[@vishuddhathakkar]

I doubt a better coverage on KZbin exists of Kansas City than this . A series on great American cities is a great idea . Hope you live to be 100 and continue making videos :D ❤️

[@robertcolpitts4534]

What a great video! My mother was born in Kansas City. Grandpa worked at the Ford Assembly Plant during the 1920s through the great depression and World War 2. We went to visit them in 1961 on the Kansas City Limited in a Pullman Car. We boarded in Chicago at night. Mom put us to bed. We woke up and got dressed just as we pulled into Kansas City. Grandma and grandpa were waiting for us in Union Station. They took us to a cafe so we could eat breakfast. We were starving! I was 7. Glad to see they preserved the old station and still use it.

[@asianprince8718]

Still a lot of historical sites in Kansas now?

[@RichardinNC1]

KC seems more modern than my last visit. I enjoyed watching the steamboat museum. I've always been intrigued by how people would have lived centuries ago. PS: Cerner, a large healthcare software company is based in KC and one of their largest employers.

[@stevenjp314]

Kansas city bigger than stl now

[@michelemcdanieltravels]

234k subs. Look at you go. It is such a joy to discover through your lens, that most cities- with KC being no exception, are so much more than what they’re often perceived to be. So fun to watch the personality of yet another understated urban locale unfold here. You highlight cities and towns so well and talk about most with such kindness that one can’t help but want to know them better, or even plan a visit that otherwise would have never even been considered. Not a bad idea about doing a “Great American Cities” tour, on a train or otherwise. So many places would benefit from this kind of attention, and if this episode is any evidence of how that would go, well, there’s no second guessing whether to do it or not. Lots of good stuff is in this one, always getting better… even some pretty cool clip transitions. Nice. Im sure the new equipment must up the fun factor of doing the work! Thanks for the continued commitment to producing quality content that stands out among the rest… Well done, Robert. 🙂

[@Kari_Jane]

Thanks for visiting our great city! This was a great look for those that don't live here to showcase all the history and diversity we have. Well done!

[@vijays8555]

Love to see, your long train ride videos across USA, Canada, Mexico and Europe

[@rocketman7334]

Yes Robert, you should definitely ride the Amtrak train! It is a great relaxing way to see the cities and country-side, all while having your meals and bed provided at reasonable cost.

[@BikesBoatsBivouacs]

Great American cities would be a great series. Nice job on your look at Kansas City.

[@RichardinNC1]

Kansas City MO was nice. I’ve been 3 times. They seemed to look down on the Kansas side, they called KCK. Once I stayed across the street from the convention center (4 spires @ 14:55)

[@kevinbentley8298]

Fantastic job showcasing our city. Great video Robert. It was great seeing you again and meeting Illy.

[@SwitchItUpLife]

Glad you liked our hometown. KC is a special place. Joe's is probably our favorite BBQ. WWI Museum is probably one of our favorites. Good stuff. Travel safe.

[@joycemosakowski3648]

Very well put together city, I like it that they had a little park for Lewis and Clark location. On to the next.

[@loneapple440]

A wonderful to start my day. Thanks for the great filming, editing and music of your videos. We aren't able to travel so this is my go to channel. Happy travels

[@johnmason-smith]

We took a great Amtrak adventure last February. Denver to Grand Junction, and back the next day. The most scenic trip through the Rocky Mountains in the winter! We spent the night in Grand Junction at a hotel within walking distance of the train station.

[@CraigNiesenPhotography]

Robert, sorry that we are a bit behind in viewing. Shelley and I enjoyed meeting up with everyone at the KC meet-up. You did an excellent job showcasing our hometown. Let's know next you are passing through or stopping by for a while. Shelley and I have been binge-watching this latest trip for the past few nights. Peace and Safe Travels

[@lisahenderson2993]

What a nice tour! Thank you so much Robert for doing what you do and sharing these videos with us. I look forward to watching the next episode every Sunday morning. 😊

[@MattRowland]

Thanks for visiting our city. Always welcome back! Belvoir Winery is owned by my two friends Jesse and Melissa Liemkueler, great place to visit!

[@davehughesfarm7983]

Union station had 260 trains in and out on opening day...Amazing..

[@gerryatrics4446]

Traveling Robert cross country on an Amtrak? Is that something I would like to see? You better believe it! I think, I am sure others will agree, you would be an excellent guide, orator, educator, and with your flair for details, make it all the more interesting. So to answer your question again, yes I would like to watch a Traveling Robert series aboard the Amtrak, while it still exists. Take care and thank you for the videos.

[@chanellejohnson6857]

I had a great time at the meet up and love what you captured of KCMO!

[@StarryRoses]

Thank you for showing KC in a positive light. I usually just hear negative things about it.

[@paulandsarahmerchant37]

We would definitely be interested in seeing you taking a long distance train journey!

[@nationalparksprincess3216]

Thanks for another great episode Robert! I love the driving footage you always put in your videos, I especially enjoy watching the drives through the cities you visit. That view of Kansas City from the Lewis and Clark spot, was beautiful.

[@almamorales4158]

Kansas City is a beautiful place.....it looks a cheerful and picturesque city.. I would very much like to visit it. Beautiful video.Congrats...... I see you on the road..... Love....MOM...>>>

[@glendasharp5057]

I have only been to Kansas City twice; both were business trips. Need to check out the steamboat museum. I did have an opportunity to visit the Negro League Baseball Museum -- highly recommend it for your next visit there. LOVED your opening music with the jazzy sax - so suitable for KC.

[@SteadyGhetner]

Man! I just LOVE that Blues shuffle you've done for the Kansas City portion of this trip! Hope to hear it again, Thanks!

[@marierey3888]

Thanks a million I have crisscross the us and Canada in a long haul truck never to see museums and downtown Thanks to you I can see what I miss

[@alrichardson7027]

[@WhitmoreReads]

My favorite city ❤️. I miss you KCMO

[@cindyg8695]

Great video of Kansas City. Would like to see an episode of a long train ride. Some beautiful scenery I’m sure.

[@sweetpapillon7265]

That was a wonderful episode. Always wanted to go to Kansas City. I love trains, so yes to the train excursion. Thank you, Robert and Ily, for all you do. I look forward to seeing you every Sunday morning. Best wishes and safe travels. Stay well and see you next week on another great episode.

[@davehughesfarm7983]

KC is a big big big time train town..Actually more tonnage through her per day than anywhere else in the world..

[@thehighlanders607]

Joe's BBQ is THE BEST!!!

[@khunopie9159]

"Well Robertoto, I've a feeling we're not in Little Havana anymore... " I love that famous movie quote!

[@josephlinville]

Union Station is a must-see. So glad you went to Jack Stack. Severely under rated place. Everything there is very, very good.

[@joyces3550]

Fabulous video as always Robert, thanks for all the hard work. Missouri my home state!

[@johntoms9666]

Thank you for a great video of where I have lived all my life Robert, can't wait for your next one!

[@TheDaubSquad]

Oh yes, a train trip would be marvelous!!

[@Thomas-sp1pp]

Great video Robert, I enjoy every minute of each, yes, a train trip would be great.Thanks again.

[@cheriecrain6914]

Good job, Robert. We have been eagerly awaiting your video of Kansas City. We visited KC, MO the end of September and visited the War Museum/Tower, the Arabia Steamboat Museum, Union Station, all were very informative and not to be missed. Of course bbq twice! We grew up in Southwest MO and now in WY. I always enjoy seeing the area where four years of my childhood were spent. Memories.

[@jmn5600]

I have only stayed overnight in Kansas City a few times in route to other destinations. I have visited the Harry Truman sites in Independence. Need to spend a few days here to explore.

[@anabonilla7785]

Good video about my beautiful KC.

[@stuwardw]

Definitely would be fun to watch a traveling Robert train journey

[@chrisproffitt6198]

Great job, Robert. This is my home and always has been for 55 years. Stop by anytime.

[@kimberlyfoust2815]

Yes, that was a revolving restaurant once upon a time.

[@nm4523]

Your rv is a Winnebago, a famous lake just south east of Kansas City near lees summit. Love this state

[@robertschaefer3223]

Pre-Covid, I used to get to KC several times a year. Lately just been once a year.

[@kevinjohnson1439]

I’m digging the new tunes. Great video as always. Thanks for the free ride!!

[@jacquelinejackson4067]

Very Nice as always. The city was very charming with a midwestern flair. Clean and inviting. Thank you for your commentary of seemily inviting city.

[@gi169]

[@quietlistner7329]

Awesome Video Robert, Thank You For Sharing.

[@bertkelly7650]

Yes, I would love to see a long-distance Train ride.

[@debbiewerner7124]

[@raypabs5374]

Robert, I would like to see you rent an RV in Australia and see the whole country.

[@boogitybear2283]

What I love about the KC area is the nice no cost Dog Parks they have to offer to those with 4 legged kids like I have.

[@MrPeter924]

[@GAFisherman]

Always dreamed of traveling by train so yes. Please take a long train ride and show us how it's done. Thanks.

[@JodysJourney]

Oh no! You walked right by my favorite restaurant in KC - Grünauer’s. Some of the best Bavarian food in the U.S. 😃 I love KC. ❤️

[@lamarw9901]

Another great video. You are my Sunday night tradition. I do follow another youtuber that has taken a few of the long distance trains. I would love to see your video on the experience and I think it would be relaxing for you and the wife. I wnat to do the west coast train LA to Oregon and see the ocean from the train.

[@Twobarpsi]

Kansas City looks like a great place!

[@Twobarpsi]

I really enjoyed the TWA tour!

[@Saverio34]

I hope you enjoyed your time here 🙏🏻

[@1911wood]

Hey you did a great job of showing the city. Subscribed and 👍

[@rvcruising]

Nice video! We were there not so long ago and also really liked the town. We stayed at the same RV park.

[@dvferyance]

The Amtrak that you saw is the Southwest Chief which goes from Chicago to Los Angeles.

[@flarrfan]

KC train is the Southwest Chief, Chi-LA...The Zephyr is the best for scenery, over the Rockies front range and then Donner Pass the next day, both in daylight!

[@jeffreymccommon8759]

KC...Gooooood morning Mrs.Morales...🎃 Cant say I've seen Kansas City...Thanks Robert and Illy...🎃🎃 Gooooood morning...🌄

[@TexasPegP]

Hi Robert 🤗 Great video as always! And YES! We would love to see you take train ride on one of those trains! 👍🏻👍🏻

[@LullyIsaias]

yes, long train ride, please!👏👏👏

[@carlcameron3524]

I love Kansas City ❤️💯

[@MrPunky1]

Great job

[@theadventuresofkennydebbie]

What an amazing city with so much to see. Bbq and more Bbq. Love your videos as always. Que Bueno.

[@julieholland1387]

Love the videos! How about a series on following the wagon train trail from St Joseph MO to California?

[@matthiasjurcik3871]

great video Robert 😍

[@coolbuffdad]

Spent some time in KC back I'm the day and I gotta say, you went to all the places I would've suggested, bravo!

[@theathjr]

Robert YES YES YES we would like to watch a series of videos traveling on the train across America ! Please Please !!! I have been wanting to take the train across the country for a very long time. High Roller private sleeper car.

[@yuvalhezkiya8934]

i get to see america thru your lenses , thanks

[@Jafar-dr6to]

Kansas City also has Walt Disneys first animation studio it’ll the building was still there in 2016 last time was I was in the area

[@stevegiblin270]

I like the RV park,amusement park,restaurants and the small city of KANSAS CITY! Will be in your area of southern FLORIDA on Nov 9,2022!😎🤪⚓😃🤓⛱🐠👍

[@bel250]

Oh, i didn't know KC got street cars, that's nice... we don't have that in Columbus, Ohio :-) ... Never been to either one, but sometimes I get confused with Kansas city, Missouri and Kansas city, Kansas...I can't wait to watch your vlog on the latter :-) Your vlog is addicting :-)

[@scottythewanderer4432]

The Guardian of Forever, was that a trek reference?

[@Yawndave]

Ah, Kansas City...gonna get my baby back home, yeah yeah🎵 (Nice new music cue by the way) It's a little disturbing to see the lack of respect some people have for the displays at Kaw Point. That's a great view from the WWI tower! The Arabia Museum was the highlight of my visit back in 2004. I got to talk to Greg Hawley (RIP), one of the main people responsible for the discovery of the ship and establishment of the museum. His book "Treasure in a Cornfield" is worth a read. You asked about interest in taking a long train journey, I think it would be more interesting to see some of the shorter historical/scenic trips like Durango to Silverton or a ride though Gold Country out of the 1897 Railtown Museum, where they use Sierra Railway 3, the "movie star locomotive".

[@markshelhart8338]

Said it before, no one does an urban rv video better. Like how you got as close as you could to the Wilbert Harrison version of Kansas City withou taking the c/r strike.

[@tracylocke1657]

You were close to President Truman's Library when you were in Kansas City especially since you were at World of fun area.

[@campingalan]

Hello from Ouray CO!!! Ahh....KC is a fun area!!

[@healtheboy27]

Hey Robert! The big mural in this video down town was done by a KZbin artist- ten hundred . Super cool artist and good channel

[@ly2sing]

Like your idea of a great cities series. What makes a great city, in your view?

[@TravelingRobert]

Safe, clean, public transit, good food, interesting museums and culture

[@chuckwalla2967]

When are you going to update your opening with the new truck?

[@TravelingRobert]

Probably by the end of the year.

[@victorhicks1962]

I wish I had known that you were here, I would have volunteered to take you around. Maybe meet the sheriff and the mayor of Kansas city, Ks

[@sideofglam]

Kansas City is the best place on earth!

[@GatBlackistan]

I'm watching this a year later and I must say, this is a beautifully put together video. I wish you would've had time to see some culturally important places like the Negro League Museum and the Jazz Museum. Thanks for visiting though!! Subscribed.
