Definitely a must-visit! Enjoyed by Millionaire Paul 👌
@@Millionaire-Paul thank you for watching it’s a really fun town! ~Cara 😊
Dam ! You really ate in Ellijay and you are still alive.
@@robertharkins1961 yes…Ellijay has some very good restaurants. ~Cara 😊
Ellijay should have a few decent eating establishment. Lot of money has come into GILMER co. REMEMBER WHEN the 500 million dollars worth of cocaine got dropped in the wrong place on big Creek ?
THANKS! Great video. I never knew Knoxville was so attractive.
@@daviddelotte5086 it is a lovely city! If you get the chance you must visit. Thank you for watching! ~Cara 😊
How lovely that the park echoes the Seurat painting. The topiary is adorable! The catapult is BRILLIANT! Thanks for sharing N&Nx
@@grapesodatravels thank you so much for watching. It was really fun! ~Cara 😊
Looking into moving to Florida soon. I am a very active woman who loves the outdoors! What other town would you recommend that is centrally located comparable to Lakeland? Great video thank you!
@@loverofchrist4662 thank you for watching. We would recommend living on any of the coastal areas for water sports, walking, running along the beaches. Tampa Bay Area, Clearwater, St.Petersburg, Sarasota area, the Pensacola area is also beautiful. ~Cara 😊
@ that would be a dream. Bit too expensive for my families budget. Plus due to hurricane seasons, I want to be inland. Lakeland seems to have lots of recreation. Anywhere else?
@ consider Lakeland, Gainesville, Ocala, Winter Springs, Lake Mary these might be options. Best to you and your family~Cara
I am from Virginia and have been to Lexington many times. Y'all did a nice job with the travelogue - well done!
@@WysteriaGuitar thank you so much! ~Cara
We've come straight home and put this video on!!! Loved seeing you guys today and would love to see this gorgeous town for real. Cheers 🍻
@@PostcardAndAPint awe we made life long memories! WALES ROCKS! We are going to make this Christmas trip happen! ~Cara 🎅🏼
Lovely relaxing video. Loved the topiary garden. Well we have never seen a statue of a catapult before - interesting! You can't beat a German band for having fun! Thanks for sharing. Elaine, Mike, Samuel and Thomas 😍😎👬
Hi Cara & John, thanks for showing us around the University area. That was a huge butterfly! Oh my, quite a downpour! Thank goodness we don't need to wear face masks anymore 😅 Fun bloopers at the end! 😂❤
@@The_Brit_Girls you too are so sweet! Always looking at the archives! I travel to Gainesville each week now to babysit our little grandson Leo 9 months. 💙
@@JohnandCaraRetiredTravellers That's wonderful. My little granddaughter is now 17 months and I had such fun babysitting her throughout the summer in England ❤
@@The_Brit_Girls They are the best! we have 3 grandsons under the age of 20 months now! 💖💙💖
Saw you comment at Pistcard and a Pint and thought I'd say hi. Nice to meet you both and looking forward to more. Happy travels. Warm wishes from Millionaire Paul 👋
@@Millionaire-Paul thanks Paul! Appreciate your support. We will be visiting the UK very soon and Wills & Rachel too! ~Cheers Cara
Columbus has indeed a lot to offer....Beautifully filmed!
Hi friend it’s really amazing
Hi John and Cara! I finally found a video we hadn't seen before! The lights on the homes and in the town looked amazing! ❤🎉
@@The_Brit_Girls you two are so sweet! St. Augustine is a beautiful fun town! ~Cara 😊
What’s the name of the lake
@@kdubb859 Blue Ridge lake off Old US Hwy 76.
It had to be good .My home town.
Greetings from Lexington from an old USAF (Vietnam) Veteran.
@@Coolerators thank you for your service and watching! John is USAF retired 35 years of service. 🇺🇸
The two greatest men in American history both lived in Lexington, VA-Generals Jackson and Lee. General Jackson lived in Lexington pre-War Between the States being killed by friendly fire at the Battle of Chancellorsville while General Lee and his family lived in Lexington after the War when he was president of Washington College (now Washington and Lee University). The tragedy is that Lexington is lead by racist Democrats today who have tried to erase the wonderful legacies of both heroes. The town cemetery name has been changed from Stonewall Jackson Cemetery to something inane while the full apostasy Episcopal "Church" has take General Lee's name the building. Disgraceful!!!
I moved here from Long Island 25 years ago and never looked back. Love livin in The Burg!
Well done! Darn, I want to shoot over to Knoxville and check it out. All your subscribers WANT more videos. from you. Nice guitar music. Was that John playing or a recording.
Lived in Fredericksburg for 6 1/2 years. And loved going into the downtown area. Especially on Friday nights from June-Sept. they would have live bands playing. Miss not being there anymore. And that home that was for sale, in your video. It was on the marked for a$1Million dollars. And if you went down where Sedona was, those apartments were worth $800-900 thousand or even $1 million. That's what downtown Fredericksburg costs.
What a fun video and Peter was so nice and seems so down to earth! We're definitely very jealous you got to meet him!
Thumbs up 👍🏻 So nice to see your video. Nice share 😊
@@AishusCraftyKidsClub thank you so much for watching! ~Cara 😊
Lovely video, congratulations on the UA-cam milestone and the birth of your grandson 🥂
Hi John & Cara, we are new to your channel and you were recommended on instagram by post card and a pint yesterday so we thought we would follow along to your adventures. Great video and information on Washington, we would love to visit sometime soon, it looks wonderful 👏 look forward to watching the rest of the series.
Thank you! Wills & Rachel are so dear! Appreciate your support we have several videos on DC. Hope you enjoy. ~Cara 😊
@@JohnandCaraRetiredTravellers Have an amazing weekend 😍
Lexington is so much more than two dead confederate soldiers. They were after all traitors to these United States.
This is a special place, thanks for showing Christmas
I'm slightly embarrassed that Y'all had to see my hometown of Richmond the way it is now and not before 2020 riots . It used to be a beautiful area. They destroyed a lot of the history here , including the glorious Monument Ave , and it really isn't the same. At least we still have Sally Belles kitchen.
In January they have the Lee Jackson Day parade. Usually a huge turn out.
Thank you for letting us know! ~Cara
@@JohnandCaraRetiredTravellers my pleasure
I thought Columbus was just an average Ohio town, we didn't realize that it has so much character, thank you for showing us around.
It’s great we loved our visit! 😊
@@JohnandCaraRetiredTravellers ❤️
What a fun and beautiful place to visit! Love the video..
We were just there again beginning of the month we saw Joe Bonomassa in concert. Great town!!!! 😊
Wow beautiful sharing ❤️ gift of a subscriber with big like ❤❤❤
My eyes are sending a virtual high-five.💗💓💞💕💟💟
We found a video we hadn't seen! Yay! It was lovely to see all the friends you met on your travels ❤ It was very uplifting and joyous to watch 😊
You two are too much!!!! Awe I love this video brings back so many happy memories. Some of the people in this video we are still in contact with…that’s why I love it so much! Thank you for going through the archives!!! ~Cara 💖
Looking for a vacation home near the river.
Good morning you nice ❤❤
Hello you nice 🛎️
Oh how did I miss this. I was wondering if you were still posting videos as I haven't seen anything come by in recent times. Checked on the channel and there you are in Columbus Ohio. Oh that catapult, how fun and awesome. At 3:56 🤣🤣! What a lovely overall view of your day here. Lovely to see you again. Have a wonderful Sunday. 🇳🇱🙋♀🇳🇿👍😎
Thank you so much for watching! We have so much more to edit and post, but have hit some health issues. Appreciate you sticking around. Hopefully much more to come soon! ~Cara 😊
@@JohnandCaraRetiredTravellers sending 🙏🕯️💖
I love that area! My son took me there for my birthday in 2022.
Thanks for watching! It’s a lovely town hope you enjoyed your visit too! ~Cara 😊
Oh my, this was tough to watch. So shocking and so very sad. It gave me chills. You did a great job of capturing the essence of evil. The music and the photography were perfectly matched. Seeing the electric fence where people would commit suicide rather than endure their confinement and the wall where people were executed left me feeling at a loss for words. And, the pile of shoes. OMG, how could people do this to other people? It's beyond comprehension. Thank you for reminding us of this atrocity...and may we never forget.
Thank you so much for watching! I broke down so many times it was an extremely emotional day. I love this video so much I wish more people would watch it. I tried so hard to capture the horror of the past and the feelings I felt while visiting. It’s a must visit for everyone in their lifetime. Thank you so much for your support. ~Cara
Hi Cara and John! You did a wonderful job of showing us around the beautiful city of Amsterdam. The Anne Frank story is incredibly sad and very moving. The footage of her looking out of her window was very touching. It's wonderful that her legacy is now helping other upcoming writers. Btw, I loved your background music choice - we have used it many times in our videos and it always makes me smile. There was a long line to enter the Van Gogh museum - but well worth it. He's my favorite artist. I loved how you captured the busy street scenes on fast-forward - very effective. I remember being terrified I was going to be run down by one of the many trams! A lovely video - thanks for sharing ❤
Thank you for watching the old archives! Oh boy this was I believe my second ever edit video! I cringe. We love loved the Netherlands we hope to return one day. The people are so very kind and the history, scenic train rides, food it is all so wonderful!! Thank you for your support 💖💖~Cara

It was a very cool piece of art work!
Hi Flower Eggs sent me your way. I took a look and have just subscribed. All the very best, God bless you.
Awe how sweet!!! We have so much footage in the can that needs to be uploaded…just busy with some life issues. Thank you so much! Cam & Theresa are wonderful! ~Cara 😊
It looks like we need to get back to Columbus!
It’s a great city we really enjoyed our time there. Thank you so much for watching! ~Cara 😊
Thank you! My family is preparing a trip there in a few weeks. Your video will help us. Thank you again.
