I am so glad I found this video. I stayed at the same hotel and watched the eclipse from the front of the hotel along with most of the hotel staff! I could see the pool and may have seen you watching!. As an astronomy enthusiast I planned on seeing this eclipse my whole life, and was really concerned about the cloud cover. But, when the sky cleared a few minutes before totality and stayed clear through totality I was very happy! There were mini eclipses on the ground shining through the leaves of the trees, and yes, the birds flew to the top of the trees and decided to take a nap. The street lights came on. It was surreal. The "star" to the right of the sun was Venus, and to the left Jupiter. Viewing these planets added to the experience. Then, after the eclipse, on the ride back to the airport, the skies really cleared! So, we were very lucky to get the clearing just before and after totality!
That is so incredible cool, and the day was just amazing!! We were a little concerned about cloud cover too, but it all worked out!! Just a wonderful experience!
We drove from VA to Erie, PA to be in the path of totality. It ended up being totally cloudy there, so we drove south to OH. We actually stopped at a rest area on the highway (along with a bunch of other people) and had a wonderful view. It was definitely worth the drive. One of the coolest things I've ever seen. We had almost 4 minutes of totality where we were. My daughter is already planning our trip to Orlando in 20 years to see another one! You should do a Super Enthused meet up for that one.
What an epic video. Loved both of your enthusiasm, it came across so well and you got some amazing shots for those of us that never got to watch the eclipse at all.
This is such an awesome stop on your cross-country trip!! The Real Unreal exhibit looks absolutely amazing! I would love to go there!! Also, seeing your view of the Total Eclipse is insane!
Literal goosebumps! I watched our measly 47% from Broward, but watching an eclipse from the path of totality is bucket list for sure! Thanks for sharing this Jackie. And the next American total eclipse will have a lot of Florida in the path!

We've never had the chance to experience a Meow Wolf yet. I definitely want to check one out sometime. It looks like a really fun thing to do. It looks like you had a great experience with the eclipse. Glad the clouds parted at the right time and thanks for documenting it for us.
Jackie, it was so awesome to see the eclipse! Your complete awe and excitement over this incredible celestial event was truly amazing! Things turned out so perfectly for you and Sam! That was an excellent decision to go to the pool of your hotel. It gave you a clear view of the sky and not a lot of other people around. It was perfect timing that the clouds parted at just the right moment, yet were there to make it possible to see with your camera. So glad you both properly used your Eclipse glasses, you are absolutely correct, severe and permanent eye damage can occur if one looks directly at the sun during an eclipse. This was a truly Awesome Adventure and a unique experience! Stay safe on your travels and I look forward to seeing the rest of your journey! 👋
Welcome to Texas! I'm in Dallas right next to Grapevine and I had to work, but I still got to see it outside my downtown office! So glad you came this way to experience it! You'll have to come back our way when the Universal resort opens in Frisco!
I live in Flower Mound, Tx - which neighbors Grapevine where you were watching. It was very epic. We found an open field/hill to sit on and everyone was clapping. When it got totally dark, I was amazed by the lights automatically turning on. I'm so glad you got to see it. Hope you made it to downtown Grapevine while you were here.
I am glad that you two made the trip for this wonderful experience. One of my friends and her husband came so they could have a chance to see people here but, also for the Eclipse. Our own personal moment with it was very peacefully spiritual and I ended up honoring it with our dog and cat who responded to it strange ways.
I am so glad you got to experience this and share with us. I went from my home in Kentucky to an hour away into Indiana and saw the totality. I was with a lot of people, and we all started cheering! It was so awesome, and I will never forget it.
At 25:15 in the background you can literally see the Moon’s shadow rushing at them. I watched this from Ohio and it was every bit as spectacular as advertised. I’m glad you got to see it too!!!
Everyone needs to experience a total solar eclipse, it was so amazing seeing it in Round Rock for my sons 10th birthday and watching this brings back all the excitement we felt watching the eclipse 🥰
Was so cool to experience this again through another person's viewpoint. We were able to experience as a family here in Indiana. My wife was like Sam, not understanding what Totality would be like. We were in Awe of God's creation. Amazing!!
So cool thanks for sharing. We had 94% partial in CT and it fed got darker. So cool to see full on darkness. It got cooler here too! Enjoy trip. Can’t wait to see more
Thank you for that amazing experience. So glad you two managed to get to my state! We are north west of Dallas area, so we were not in path of totality. It got a bit darker here but not like you all were experiencing. I'm thrilled to experience this through your eyes...it was spectacular. At 73, I don't think I will have many more of these chances. so I am thankful for your video. Enjoy the rest of your trip and be safe! Wave at me if you go through Chillicothe, TX.
It was so great seeing your enthusiasm over the total eclipse! We saw it locally here in Ohio and were equally enthralled. First 2017, now 2024 for us. Have a great trip!
I love how everyone who experienced it had the same wonderful reaction!! It was like being part of something larger than ourselves, all experiencing this together from different places.
Awesome Eclipse video Jackie!! That was so cool! You and Sam got some good views of the Eclipse!! So great you guys got to enjoy watching it for a few minutes and experience it!! ❤️😊😊
Oh, and I also wanted to thank you for making other content. Other than the amusement parks America has so much more to see, and I’m so happy that you are sharing the other parts with us.
Loved seeing your great coverage of your Solar Eclipse experience! You guys are having the best time and looking forward to seeing where you guys end up!!
Thank you so much, Jackie (and Sam!) for letting us see through your eyes! We only got a partial view here in Fl, so it was amazing to see its totality with you! I love how it went so dark so quick, but back to day in 2 mins. Nature is so cool!!
Thank you for sharing the Total Eclipse with us. We were only going to see partial where I live but it was raining and cloudy. We couldn’t see it. It did get dark briefly for a few minutes and then brightened up. Looking forward to more of your road trip videos.
Awww, you guys were so close to where I live! It was so amazing that the clouds parted at just the right time yesterday around here. So glad you guys got to enjoy it around here.
Thank you so much for sharing your video with us. I didn’t get to see it myself so it was cool to see it through your eyes. I hope you have a safe rest of your trip. Come see Tombstone AZ or the Grand Canyon; they’re fun!
This is exactly what I experienced in Dallas! My expectations were low because I was looking at the weather for the past week and it was nothing but clouds and a chance of rain, so when I flew to Dallas I was a bit disappointed by all the clouds.......then suddenly, the clouds partied and the skies cleared the moment totality happened! I'm still speechless!
Sam said the sky during the eclipse looked like the tv show Hero. I totally loved that tv series! Here in St Louis area, we had a 98 percent eclipse. I saw it with 3 pairs of sunglasses while looking at it in a windshield screen. But the sky got fairly dark and it cooled down quite a lot too.
I'm so glad the clouds parted for you! I was in totality, too, and it really was one of the coolest things I've ever seen with my own eyes. Just awesome, literally!
Oh my gosh thank you to you and Sam this blog was awesome I'm in Sarasota Florida and we really didn't see anything it was so much fun to watch with you guys and see how excited you were
I loved this video! We live right outside of Dallas and were able to experience this in our own backyard and it was such a magical moment that we will never forget!!
I saw 1999's solar eclipse in London, and your reaction completely mirrored mine, an unbelievable sight to see something we're so used to, change entirely! Well done on taking all the precautions, tho Sam's a proper amber gambler! Safe travels!
We watched this after return home from watching the Totality from Maumee Bay State Park in Ohio. We were so nervous for you guys when it looked like the clouds might block it out! It is such an amazing thing to see. We were very happy for you guys we enjoyed our experience so much!
So glad y’all made the trip to see that. I’m in San Antonio and here at our Six Flags, they put on an awesome fireworks show during the eclipse. Imagine seeing that during an eclipse. Look it up, Fiesta Texas. Can’t wait to see the rest of your trip!!!
This was the most super enthused moment I've ever seen! Thank you for capturing this incredible phenomenon so perfectly for us all

What’s really cool is that you can see the eclipse very well in the lens flares even when you can’t see it through the clouds. Refraction is crazy.
nice eclipse vlog awsome content
You’re an outstanding UA-cam channel.
That was brilliant, thanks . You need to do a short video of you taking ur glasses on and off. Made me laugh. So excited.
What a wonderful fun drink! Nice and festive. This was a great video on the Eclipse!
Great Video- just loved every second.
Loved seeing your great coverage of your Solar Eclipse experience! You guys are having the best time and looking forward to seeing where you guys end up!!

We saw totality a few years ago here in Kentucky! So excited you all got to experience it! Your "enthusiasm" was contagious!!
Thank you so much for sharing your video with us. I didn’t get to see it myself so it was cool to see it through your eyes. I hope you have a safe rest of your trip. Come see Tombstone AZ or the Grand Canyon; they’re fun!
Absolutely awesome time-lapse Jackie! You are getting very good at them. 😎

Fantastic coverage! Great job narrating too - it was fun to watch this tonight. ❤
This was my second total solar eclipse. I love seeing other people’s reaction. It is truly awe-inspiring. Glad you guys got to see it.
Great great job Jackie I live in Wisconsin and we saw it here but of course it wasn’t a total one here but we thought it was wonderful here !!!
It really was cool
I'm so glad the clouds parted for you! I was in totality, too, and it really was one of the coolest things I've ever seen with my own eyes. Just awesome, literally!
Amazing!
🔥You guys Nailed it !....best coverage I saw..🌘...nice job...
I'm glad you guys were able to see the Eclipse. In South FL we only got partial coverage. Have to wait for 2045.
Well done and nobody went blind!
Loved it! I couldn’t be there to see it but your and Sams’s enthusiasm made it feel real to me!
Jackie, you actually made me snort laugh when you said you think you burnt a hole in your retina.
Thank you so much Jackie & Sam 😊. We watched the eclipse on the NASA channel (at home in England) and yours was by far the best coverage x❤x
That means so much!!!
wow Jackie and Sam that place is nuts .... enjoyed it ... glad we are all invited on this road trip ... thank you
We enjoyed 3 minutes of totality in ATX. So cool! 😎 Glad you guys got to experience it as well in Grapevine.
Oh my gosh thank you to you and Sam this blog was awesome I'm in Sarasota Florida and we really didn't see anything it was so much fun to watch with you guys and see how excited you were
I loved this video! We live right outside of Dallas and were able to experience this in our own backyard and it was such a magical moment that we will never forget!!

We experienced a total here in Dayton Ohio. Most awesome thing I've seen in my 68 years. Thanks for sharing and we felt the same!
I saw 1999's solar eclipse in London, and your reaction completely mirrored mine, an unbelievable sight to see something we're so used to, change entirely! Well done on taking all the precautions, tho Sam's a proper amber gambler! Safe travels!
Been waiting for this one. Great video Jackie.
That was WILD seeing night fall! Y’all killed it capturing it for those of us not in the path.
We watched this after return home from watching the Totality from Maumee Bay State Park in Ohio. We were so nervous for you guys when it looked like the clouds might block it out! It is such an amazing thing to see. We were very happy for you guys we enjoyed our experience so much!
