How amazingly beautiful. Thanks for sharing.
Just beautiful. I love it.
A bit of history to lern from this one. Very informative video, and area. I hope humanity keeps moving OVERALL in the right direction. Although sometimes it seems like we take one step forward, and two steps back. Great job. ♥️
I believe history is a great teacher and reminder too. Thank you so much for watching! ~ Nat
I remember the video from last year's show, this looks like such a fun event. I wish I was closer, but it is quite a drive for us. Great video. Thank you for sharing this event every year, maybe next time we can go.
Oh yes, I can definitely understand! It is quite the drive! If you are ever in the area for the event, I think you’ll find it a blast to attend! Thanks so much for watching~ Nat
Definitely some cool trees, and things to see at this park. Pretty. Thank you for sharing.
I belive we have something similar here in Miami Lakes. It looks interesting, we may need to check it out. Thank you for sharing. 🤗
Oh cool! Enjoying a good laugh is always a good idea 😄 Thanks for watching~ Nat
Oh yeah, and we already climbed the lighthouse too. 💯
That’s awesome! Climbing the lighthouse is definitely a 2025 must-do! We may get to it before the end of the year! I feel like we’re missing out! 😅 Thanks for watching! ~ Nat
Actually been to this one 😅. Pretty place, we enjoyed it. Definitely worth the visit.
It is beautiful! Totally agree!
Too bad I missed you all this year. Tape Measure is a good boy 🐶My favorite Transformer is Soundwave 🤖
Oh yeah, I forgot about Shockwave! Wish we could have made it there Saturday too but we were lucky to get in on time to see everything we could on Sunday! We’re thinking of trying to get to Megacon so I’m sure we’ll see each other soon! Thanks for watching too~ Nat
Boy! Do l miss riding horses. 🐎 That looks like 👍🏽 so much fun. Great video and thanks for sharing.

Well done, love the vibe
Thank you so much, glad you enjoyed. Thanks for watching! ~ Nat
Just an hour and a half from nearby Mobile, we frequent Naval Aviation Pensacola. The Blue Angels practice there most every Tuesday and Wednesday from March through October - check their schedule posted online.
We haven’t had the chance to visit during their practice season but it looks like we may be coming in the spring so we can catch a practice finally! We’ll definitely check the schedule! Thank you for watching too~ Nat
Lived in Pensacola a couple of times...back in 04 and again 2018 really loved the place, but the hurricanes have always worried me. But, I'm starting to think "the hell with them" and make the move again...permanently. thx for the vid.
It is a lovely place! We just left there about a week ago so we have more videos coming from Pensacola soon. There’s so much to enjoy there! Thanks so much for watching~ Nat
Excellent video. I thoroughly enjoyed it! I have not been to that bitch since I was a kid. I'm going to take my son to it because its so historical. ❤❤❤❤❤❤
It is a great beach to visit! I hope you all have a wonderful time visiting there and thanks for watching~ Nat
Wow! What a beautiful area and it’s just gorgeous and I’d love to visit there. There’s a lot of history there and that’s exciting to see. And l plan to definitely visit there. Thanks for sharing, such a great video.
It is a beautiful park, couldn’t agree more 😊 Thanks so much for watching~ Nat
I have only driven through Tallahassee. This looks like a nice park! Florida history is horrible at times. Good video, guys! Have a great weekend!
The history can be a lot, I agree. I thought the park did a great job of acknowledging and paying reverence. We normally just drive through Tallahassee too. This was our first time stopping; I’m glad we did. There are quite a few more places we still want to see. Thanks for watching~ Nat
Wonderful share of Cascades Park in Tallahassee, great share, thanks a lot
We’re glad you enjoyed the video. We had a great time visiting the park and learning about Tallahassee too. Thanks for the kind words and thanks so much for watching~ Nat
Love Gainesville. Thanks for sharing.
Yes, we agree! Gainesville has so much to offer! Thanks for watching~ Nat
Wow! How beautiful is that area. It sounds great except the alligators 🐊. I’d love ❤️ to see the different birds. Love the information and videos. Thanks for sharing. Great job.
Thank you! And thanks so much for watching~ Nat
This is a great park! We saw a ton of wildlife there. Great tour!
Oh incredible! I’ll have to watch! All of the wildlife there is outstanding! Thanks for watching~ Nat
Stay away from the zoo they treat there employees worse then the animals
That’s sad to hear. Thank you for the feedback ~ Nat

Nice ❤ and l love it.
Cutest ❤ video. Thanks for sharing.😊
Thank you for watching~ Nat
The Cubi Point "O" Club in the Philippines was dismantled and re-assembled in the Museum. All visiting Squadrons left their Insignia on the walls. A historic Club to have lunch in. Highly recommend a visit.
Sounds like a must-do! We’ll definitely need to fit it in and make lunch a priority next visit. Thanks for watching! ~ Nat
A fantastic place.
Yes, the food and atmosphere is fantastic! Thanks for watching 😊 ~ Nat
Thanks so much
Thank you for watching! ~ Nat
loved this. thank you
So glad you enjoyed it! Thanks so much for watching! ~ Nat
I was there before 2007 and yes the museum is bigger than I thought. I spent most of my time on the ground floor of the museum. I can understand why you’re son was a bit overwhelmed even for an aircraft nerd like myself there is a lot to take in. I do recommend the cafe bar and the food was good. They really do have the (West pac) plaques that list the ships and navy carrier air wings that participated in those Cold War exercises, I don’t know of any other place that civilians get to see that kind of stuff. I think at the time i got a drink refill it’s good idea hydrate it was hot that day before leaving the cafe and museum its Florida. I like your idea of grabbing a map and “zoning it out” to see what you want to see by interest. Wished i could have stayed overnight closer to that area alas I had a larger family trip. I do remember having gone to other military museums on bases the security requirements differ from time to time check with the museums web site or call ahead and find out so you can spend more time at the museum.
The cafe was something that we definitely wished we could have tried while we were there. Also, the simulation rides upstairs. It is so huge! I do agree staying somewhere close overnight and being able to spend more time at the museum would be great. Thanks so much for the additional insight and information and thanks for watching! ~ Nat
No problem. Your video brought back a wonderful afternoon with my mom. It’s good to see a mother broadening her child’s horizons that there is a big world out there and its meant to be experienced 😉
Wow! How beautiful is that area. The beach 🏖️ is just gorgeous, too. I’d love ❤️ to visit that area it looks it’s so much to do. Great job and thanks for sharing. ❤😊
Thank you so much! And we agree, it is so beautiful too! Thanks for watching~ Nat
We love that whole area! You could do a whole weekend at the Ponce Inlet. The Jetty was a lot of fun!
Oh yes, it took us a while to visit because we didn’t realize how much there is to do there and how pretty it is. And now we’re in love with the area! 😅 Thanks so much for watching~ Nat
Thanks for providing the website. I gotta check this out.
Oh cool! Glad you found it interesting! Thanks so much for watching too~ Nat
Cool!! Didn't know about this one. Awesome. 👏👏👏
Beautiful spot, and FREE!! Thanks for sharing. 💯
Thanks so much for watching! ~ Nat
My dad had a condo at Mirabella for man years and I would get to take the family down for a week each year and we would go to the museum every year. Looks like it has changed some as it would every year just a little. I thought it was cool that the floor in the WW2 area is the deck from the aircraft carrier that G.H.W. Bush flew off of during the war. The walk down main st. Is very cool too. If you go, go w or someone or kids that do not want to spend all day
Those are some interesting details about the museum that we missed! There’s so much to see and experience there! It’s cool that you had the chance to go multiple times. Thanks so much for sharing your experiences and for watching~ Nat
I see they have Snoop Dogg
Yes, Snoop Dogg is everywhere 😅 Thanks for watching too~ Nat
Like #3! We love Botanical Gardens during the wintertime. I love that feature on Google. You take a photo and hit search on Google. It was a rough 3 weeks for the Tampabay area. We lucked out, but there are still places that are flooded. It is crazy! Great tour!
That feature is a lifesaver! My kids love it and it keeps them really engaged! They even use it home around the neighborhood 😂 I’m so glad you all are safe. It has definitely been a trying hurricane season 😞 Thanks so much for watching~ Nat
Hey guys, sorry to hear about the issue in Tampa. Hopefully everything gets back to normal soon. Take care.
❤Wow! How beautiful is that area. I loved 🎉it and thank you for sharing. Great job🙏🏽.
It is really beautiful! Thanks so much for watching~ Nat
Awesome museum. An hour from the house.
Yes, totally agree! It’s great that you’re so close too! Thanks for watching~ Nat
Wow this looks great! I will defiantly be checking out the orlando location!
That’s awesome!! We hope you have a great time! We do believe it’s a lot of fun and with so much to do!! Thanks for watching too~ Nat
Wow! That’s amazing and very inspiring and exciting and l love that. Watching all the different things you can do. It’s wonderful to be able to do so many things, it’s really nice to be able to make so much. Great video and thanks for sharing your experiences. ❤ loved it. 🥰
It’s a really cool place! And yes, there’s a lot you can make there too 😊 Thanks so much for watching~ Nat
Hopefully I’ll see you there next month 🤞
We were wondering if you were coming back this year, Awesome!! We’ll be there Sunday! Are you coming Saturday or Sunday? ~Nat
@@OffOurCouch I’m still waiting on the person in charge of social media influencers to get back with me on the details. So I don’t know yet.
If you don’t hear back soon, we can try our contacts. By now, you probably already got an answer though 😅
@@OffOurCouch not yet I’ll give them until 11/1 thank you
Neat tour of this space! You can build a lot of stuff here!
Yes, definitely! If we lived closer, we would join. I’d like to build but need a lot of help! 🤣 Did you all do ok during the storm? Thanks for watching~ Nat
@OffOurCouch we did okay in storm. Lost power for 24 hours and internet for 48. Gas has been hard to find. A lot of the towns around us got hit bad. It has been a crazy 3 weeks.
I was logged into my daughter's account somehow with the last response. LOL Glad you all are ok
There is a theatre downtown called "Stage Door" it is on the 3rd floor of an old building on Caroline street in Fredericksburg, VA. They have all kinds of shows there and sometimes they have matinee shows for kids. I think the current Child friendly production coming up is "Anastasia" you would have to check out their website for more information. Also, downstairs in the same building has a child friendly bookstore called "Jabberwocky" which is really neat. There is a mom and pop ice cream shop right across the street from there called Abner's Ice Cream". Not sure if your children would like this for dinner, but there is a really nice Asian restaurant on the same street called Osan which is pretty good if you like Chicken Teriyaki or Sushi. If not, there is a real awesome pizza place called Benny's on the same street (Caroline St), which serves Gigantic and I mean Huge pizza's - I"m sure your children would love it, if they love pizza. It is the largest pizza I have ever seen. You can buy it by the slice there too. Hope this helps. Loved your video. Thank you for sharing your adventures in Fredericksburg.
Wow! 😮 So many great ideas! I could do another video about kid-friendly things to do in Fredericksburg! Thank you, next time we’re in the area we’re going to try these places! Thanks for watching too~ Nat
❤Wow! That sounds exciting and that Pizza looks delicious as ever. Great video and such a beautiful area. Thanks for sharing 😊.
It is a fun place to visit and everything was good 😊 Thanks for watching! ~ Nat
This is such a fun street to walk! There is this pink hotel by the bridge Mike, and I thought it would be cool to stay. The food looks good! Banana coffee and lavender mimosas, yum! The beach is incredible there! Thanks for the tour! We loved New Smyrna!
Yes, we saw that hotel! That sounds like it would be fun!! I agree, New Smyrna is awesome and Flagler Avenue is such a cool street to walk! Thanks for watching~ Nat
