Great video! Great park too to camp at. The sunset was beautiful on the lake and it looked like you had a nice bike ride. Maggie was happy when you got back. That was cute Maggie using one paw and then the other to let you know she wanted a burger too! That was so cute. Cute picture of the Pelicans. It looked nice to go on the beach with the van. Glad you had at Ft. De Soto. The hamburgers looked good. I wouldn’t go either just yet to Texas with it being bad weather right now. It might be good to wait a bit. Hope you have a great day and see you soon! Stay safe and travel safe.

Have y'all ever been to Sanibel Island? It's a beautiful place along with Upper Captiva Island. It's the state's best for shelling. The sands are so white and the water is usually pretty clear at this time of the year. I hope one day y'all will visit the islands and see what I mean. Get your reservations for next winter now if you want to stay anywhere on Sanibel during the winter camping season. It's truly a place you don't want to miss out on if you're ever in S.W. Florida. Happy trails and many truly remarkable adventures await y'all.

Thanks for another post card from the road! It is always a treat to see what you guys are up to. Hoping y’all are finding many opportunities for wasting some time. 😉 Things are hopping a little bit in NW FL as the build up to Mardi Gras Day approaches. We briefly considered a run down to Pensacola Beach and Ft. Pickens but sanity prevailed . There will be crowds of people down there for a Mardi Gras parade and much merriment. So not today. That’s the beauty of living where we do. In a few more days (3) it’ll all be over until next year (the Insanity that is Mardi Gras, that is) and we can go out to a peaceful, serene beach. Temps are supposed to be 77+ Looking forward to next week’s chapter in lifestyles of the Van Trekkers! Byeee! Maggie is a peach! Give her an extra bite of burger, just because she’s too cute!

We’ve been around Florida during Marci Gras and it is very crowded and a lot of fun, but you know how much we like crowds. Sounds like you are having prefect weather. See you next Sunday or maybe Tuesday.

We really like the screen room, it’s good to have an extra place to hang out even if there’s no bug, but especially if there are bugs, and it’s small enough to carry on the ladder.

Can you share where you got the bags you put on your Rad rack? I need something like that to store "stuff" in when we ride and not have so much in the backpack. Great video, hope you make it to Texas later. We're still stuck up here in Ft Worth in the cold.

Ft Desoto is our favorite local park. We were just there a few weeks ago! Question for you, we just got an Insta 360 ONE X2 camera as well. You did a great job with the editing. What program do you edit the 360 footage in?
@VANTREKKINGlifestyle
@VANTREKKINGlifestyle 2 жыл бұрын
We love Ft Desoto too! None of the footage from this trip is on the One X2 360… it’s on the Insta360 Go 2… the little camera. On 360 footage I always edit the footage with the Insta360 app by bring up the part that lets you spin around pointing the phone and repositioning. Works best sitting in a swivel office chair too btw!

Question..make, model of electric bikes, and would you buy the same again
@VANTREKKINGlifestyle
@VANTREKKINGlifestyle 2 жыл бұрын
We have Rad mini fat tire step thru. We’ve had the bikes for over two years and have been really happy with them. However, there are so many new one out there we may have to do more research before I could say we would buy the same ones. I will say they are a great company and have awesome customer support. It’s a big decision… good luck

I try not to give her a lot of table food, Owen not so much. He thinks she should be able to get a bite of everything she wants and Maggie agrees with him.
