Michigander here! Love all all your videos but I’ve been waiting for this one! You could truly spend a whole summer exploring the Great Lakes, and it still may not be enough time to see everything!😊
I've always loved your videos, but YAY! Finally a great video on Michigan! So many RV videos out there on everything from the west to the east, (mostly deserts, etc) yet very few take the route to Michigan, yet we have some of the most beautiful areas I've ever seen. Thank you, Robert.
Michigan’s upper peninsula is so beautiful. Thank you for the video. Next time check out The Big Spring, Tahquamenon Falls State Park. Soo Locks, Great Lakes Shipwreck Museum. I’ve been to all these places and they are amazing. 😊
Hello Traveling Robert! 3 years ago my son and I traveled from Rhode Island to North Dakota and I was able to check off 2 states that I needed to complete to conquer all of the lower 48 states, and those states were Michigan and North Dakota. Once we left I-80 near Toledo,Oh we drove to the following Michigan attractions: The Motown Museum and Ford Museum in Detroit, Sleeping Bear Dunes( 400 feet above Lake Michigan ), Mackinac Island where we visited The Grand Hotel, Fort Mackinac, ate my 1st ever pastie at Machinac Island, and Arch Rock, North over the Machinaw Bridge( SPECTACULAR!! ), Soo Locks boat tour through the locks, Shipwreck Museum at Whitefish Point, Tahquamenon Falls, Pictured Rocks boat tour and it was INCREDIBLE! Michigan is truly a very special place! Looking forward to seeing the Machinac Island footage. Great video Robert!
I visited Sleeping Bears Dunes with my boyfriend and decided to climb down the dunes, which was fun, coming back up, not so much but Northern Michigan and the UP of Michigan are beautiful.
@@aknudsen93 Hi Anne, so happy that you enjoyed Sleeping Bear Dunes and braved the climb back up. Such an amazing view of Lake Michigan from so far up at the at the top of the dune. Absolutely breathtaking!
Michigan born and raised. Grew up in Detroit and now go to school at Michigan tech in the Upper peninsula. Next time stop by the west of the U.P. and lower peninsula for jaw dropping scenery (Canyon falls, keweenaw, porcupine mountains, and sleeping bear dunes) Great video!
Heading up to Porcupine Mtns in a week from Wisconsin. As a teen we used to go up skiing, so now...decades later...I'm finally making my way back. Yeah! Can't wait to see lots of waterfalls! Going to be a Yooper for a day! 8D
Fun Fact: I've stood on that same scenic overlook and took that same picture of the Mackinaw Bridge from The Straits State Park. Its been my screen saver nearly 4 years. Its fun to see Robert visit the places I've seen and love.
My weekly treat! I save your Sunday videos until after I've had my dinner (its 7pm UK time). Then I get a glass of wine and settle down for some relaxing fun Thanks for such brilliant entertainment!
I’m from Cheboygan MI with is just south of St Ignace and haven’t lived there in 10 years, so I thoroughly enjoyed watching this video and look forward to the next episode. Thank you for sharing.
I'm from the Philippines and i love watching your travel videos, i feel like I'm traveling too. Haha! and i learn a lot from you about the places you visit.
@Allen Chitwood thanks a lot. Have been watching his videos for a month or so now. Still a lot to catch up. Haha. Enjoying the travel while still on quarantine here.
I enjoyed your first half video of your visit to my home state of Michigan. As a traveler myself (49 states and about 15 foreign countries) I recommend that on your next visit to this area you make the Pictured Rocks Boat Cruise a priority, and that you get over to Sleeping Bear Dunes and Leelanau County. They are the best sights in Michigan, after Mackinaw Island.
You finally made it to Michigan! I currently live in the Tampa Bay area but, was born and raised in MI and spent most of my life there. I've been to most of the places you showed in this video! With the waterfalls you visited, I can't believe you skipped Tehquamenon Falls! They are the largest and most spectacular in Michigan! Mackinac Island has always been a favorite place of mine. Can't wait to see your impressions of it. Glad you got to eat a Pasty. I miss those!
Love the UP and the northern mitten. Yes the Pictured Rocks is amazing from the boat! We stayed at Munising Tourist Park Campground. It's a city run campground right on the water. We had a water font site and were able to walk the beach from one end to the other. Don't feel bad on the weather though. We were there in mid July and the weather was just like what you experienced. After talking to people the best time for weather is late July to late August. We had a good time, but because of he weaker I tell my wife it didn't count, so we need to do the trip,again! LOL
Hello, Robert, nice to see you.. welcome in Michigan.. I went there last Memorial weekend . Welcome...again...enjoyed your video so much... enjoy the tons of trees in Michigan, BTW am I 1st ranked?
Great choice on the pasty! I make them every year, and they are to die for! It's basically sirloin and rutabaga (or potatoes) wrapped in pastry dough. They started in Wales/UK for the workers in the mines to have a warm lunch in a pocket.
Another great tour. You are so right about national park rangers. They are so helpful, love the places where they serve and if you are respectful and curious they will tell you about the parks and much more in the surrounding area. When I visited Cape Cod with my grandchildren they told us exactly which beaches to visit, what time of day to go and where to stop for lunch/dinner nearby.
Michigan's UP is nostalgic for me, since I spent some good times 75 years ago on the Minnesota shore of Lake Superior. Glimpsing the lake through the trees made me feel right at home. But the Minnesota side had more white birches and the shoreline more igneous stones and agates than the sandy Michigan beaches. The rain, however, was quite familiar. Too bad video cannot capture the clean air, too.
@@ronachten2902: In the mid 1900s, the towns along highway 61 from Duluth north did little to attract tourists. This was a country that seemed populated by old Scandinavian miners and lumberjacks, and the idea of developing a tourist trade hadn't occurred to most communities. People drove through and looked at the natural attractions and spent a night in a cabin camp, and that was it. Later in the century, catering to tourists became a thing throughout the Midwest, and campgrounds abound nowadays.
@@keithnichols7926 Thank you, sir. I had an opportunity years ago to attend Northern Michigan University, but I didn't go. It seems to be a fine town... Marquette, Michigan.
So glad to see you made it up here. I remember recommending it to you a couple years ago . I spent every summer of my childhood in Munising camping south of there at Pete's Lake. The temperature was always much cooler than home, (Menominee County), and Lake Superior was always cold so that was nice for 90 degree summers.
Hey Robert! So nice to see you...and to hear yor beautiful music again! I followed you to The Keys. Now I'm following you to the U.P.! We're going to Porcupine Mtns S.P. in a week. Planning on seeing up to a dozen waterfalls. Can't wait! Thanks for another wonderful video!
I recently discovered Traveling Robert and his fabulous videos and music. Like him putting a sticker on each state he visits, I am going to post this comment on all the videos I watch! You da man, Robert!!
I live in Munising. My favorite quiet getaway is Wagner Falls, any time of year. A bit of history on Elliot Falls along Miners Beach....The Elliot family owned a house just upstream from the falls about 100 feet. The stream went directly UNDER the house through its foundation in concrete channel. The family's water use came from the stream. My father went to school with one of the children and was actually in the house in the 1950's to see the setup which he described to me. Note...the foundation and some minor artifacts are still in place. In another segment of the video, you stopped at another Lake Superior overlook. It is known as Sullivan's Landing where log rafts were assembled for floating to the mills around the region. The log slide just a few miles east did the same thing with a plume that delivered logs to the water.
Fellow Yooper here! Thank for showing the beaches at Pictured Rocks. I live about an hour away and can you believe haven't seen them and I've lived here over 40 years! They will definitely be on my list of places to go! And guess what? It's been raining allll day here in Escanaba!🤦🏼♀️
I've been watching several of your travel videos now and was pleasantly surprised to see you up in this region. I live on the south shores of Lake Superior so I know the beauty and grandeur of my area. I haven't really been around the areas you covered in this video buuttt now I am inspired to do so! Thx, Robert!!
Hello I follow your movies which are an example The most amazing I have seen so far Editing. Your original music The photo shoots. Simply spectacular !!!! Thank you very much I am increasingly watching your movies and you have enough to fill a NBC library You give me ideas that one day I will fulfill them. I have a close family in the U.S. on both ends And I just told I YEAR AGO TO my daughter one day we would drive from coast to coast in the United States. The her husband of {an American originally} said what patience you have ... With all of us I said that there is something to see and enjoyment it all becomes easier Greetings from Israel and me IL
I live in the thumb of Michigan, but i love being Up North. You can't go wrong with check out Pictured Rocks. Well any where in the UP is better then down here. I go up north many times a year. glade you got to check it out.
Definitely don't miss the boat cruise the next time you're in the Pictured Rocks. I recommend getting a boat later in the day so the sun hits the rocks and you can really see all the colors. So glad you went to Au Train beach! I ended up there per recommendation from a local in the Harley Davidson shop in Munising.
I did much of the same trip through the U.P. about three weeks after you. The fall colors were starting and the seasonal change was awesome. I grew up there but moved to Montana & Yellowstone 40 years ago. Love your travels, makes me want to get out too.
I thought so too when I worked out in Jay/Farmington area for a few months in the winter. But up there had mountains off in the distance for the view so I liked it just a little more than home in the UP.
A fresh hot Pasty makes a wonderful hearty breakfast. You won't feel hungry again until dinnertime! I'm glad you enjoyed my home state of Michigan and you went through the very best parts of it first!
Should have gone all the way to Sault Set Marie on the border. Spent a winter there in the Air Force and learned what cold really is! Great video series Robert.
Always, always a pleasure to start my Sundays with Travelling Robert episode. Quality content as usual. Of course when i saw the cooking segment I wondered if you had your cooking wine topped up. :) Can't be a Robert RV Cooking segment without our wine.
Robert awesome as always thanks for showing us around Michigan . I have to say every time you taste a body of water your brave, I know I wouldn't, thinking what ever else is in that water if you get my drift. Lol! Thanks again enjoyed seeing Michigan😊
Howdy Robert...thanks for providing another virtual getaway; so welcome during these crazy times. The UP has long been on my bucket list, now even more so! By the way, I love your pink rain gear :-) (if you haven't got a new rain jacket yet, I recommend the Marmot PreCip)
It’s beautiful up there. Will be spending a few days in Northern Michigan late this summer. Thank you Robert for a super refreshing video, now back to reality and endless violence on the news.
Robert, next time you come to Michigan be sure to spend a few days at Silver Lake Sand Dunes. I have my RV sitting at a permanent camp lot there and everything is open from May-October. Lots to do! Sandy Shores is a great campground, hit me up and I'll show you around. Not only the town but the dunes. Keep up the great work.
My dad and I made almost the same trip last summer! We left north Alabama on May 30, 2019. We also saw Yellowstone, Mt. Rushmore, Devils tower, the badlands. Stopped at the Corn Palace, the museum over the interstate in Kearney Nebraska. Went to Wall Drugs (which I REALLY didn’t like). Seen mining museum in Butte Montana. Was in a hailstorm in Butte. Snowed 8 inches in Yellowstone 2 days before we got there. Pop traded his 2014 Colorado for a brand new one 2 days before we left! Seats were pretty stiff and uncomfortable! Lol. We were supposed to go back this summer and do the Grand Canyon, go back to Yellowstone. See Arches and Needles parks. We don’t think we are going to get to finish our trip this year. We left Yellowstone the route you did! I was pretty much terrorized till that was over. Stunningly beautiful but scary as all get out!
That's my class B van in front of you when you were driving into Bay Furnace. I talked with you for a few minutes later in the day use area. Too bad about the weather turning bad.
Robert thank you for another video with great content. Can you include some of your grocery shopping adventures to your videos? I don’t mind if your videos are even longer, I think they are excellent
Ahh pasties. Good with gravy too. They would feed these to the miners like in Mineral Point, Wisconsin. My first introduction was in song " Sense of Wonder" by Van Morrison no doubt a travel down memory lane in Belfast " Pastie suppers down at Davey's chipper Gravy rings, wagon wheels Bambracks, snowballs". Then I had the real deal in the UP. Ended up living in Wisconsin for.25 years and having access to Pasties. Some of my favorite travels is getting in touch with nature a hike.in the woods, being on a.lake, hearing the ocean, enjoying sunrise/ sunsets, and enjoying local cuisine like pasties.
I live in the UP! Pastys are awesome hey robert?! U should try it with chilli ontop. And back in the day the iron minors loved eating pastys because they could just grab it with their hands and it was a whole meal in one.
Your 5 year Mini Tini review was my first Traveling Robert video (about 3 months ago). I subscribed and have been catching up on your videos since. I'm really anxious to see some new content with Mini Tini 2. Stay safe.
Not going to UP, looks like my state in Northern Maine. Evergreen trees and more trees. Plus mosquitoes & Black flies. Tks for saving me the trip. Although our Fall season, unlike UP, is Spectacular, colorful and dry.
Unlike the u p? You don't really know what you are talking about. You could not ask for better color in the fall than michigan. This is from the first week of september
Beautiful video, part of the country I have not yet seen . It's to bad about the weather rain and 50 degrees or so out ,burrrrr to cold for me . Beautiful but I will take Florida heat and beaches over this . Love the channel and videos! 👍🌅🇺🇸
If you follow the steps at Sable Falls down to the beach you can stand at the base of the sand dune and see Sable Creek empty into Lake Superior. It’s quite a strenuous hike back up when you are tired so not worth it on a rainy day.
Robert, you should check out key west again. They repaved Duvall st and many of the bars and stores remodeled their insides. Some places even closed for good. The keys are open as of June 1st.
Kedves Robert! Ez a videója is nagyon tetszett! A videóinak semmivel össze nem téveszthető hangulata van, imádom őket! Tisztelettel: F. Attila Magyarországról.
We visited the Upper Peninsula a couple of weeks ago. Was cool, highs in the 50's lows in the 30's , but sunny. will be posting a video on the trip. We did go and see the Bat Furnace , very interesting!

Soooo true!!!
Yah got me running around the house singing " riding in my RV" and your cooking makes me hungry 😆
Me too and I don't even own an RV.
Hello Traveling Robert! 3 years ago my son and I traveled from Rhode Island to North Dakota and I was able to check off 2 states that I needed to complete to conquer all of the lower 48 states, and those states were Michigan and North Dakota.

I drove up from Indiana to Sleeping Bear dunes last fall, wow, it is a must see!
How many people from detroit go over to canada? Or is that not a thing?
@@pattiwhite9575 During normal times, they go a lot. The have a Caesars casino right over the boarder and it's the only non-smoking casino around.
Heading up to Porcupine Mtns in a week from Wisconsin. As a teen we used to go up skiing, so now...decades later...I'm finally making my way back. Yeah! Can't wait to see lots of waterfalls!
Going to be a Yooper for a day! 8D
Much credit for exploring the UP in less than ideal conditions.
I love Warren Dunes in Southern Michigan, was one of my favorite day trips from Chicago.
Whenever you travel UA-cam it has all the information you will ever need it's the best information station I've ever seen for travel
Someone already mentioned it but the west side of the UP and the Keewenaw peninsula are really great. So many good things to see and do there.
Fun Fact: I've stood on that same scenic overlook and took that same picture of the Mackinaw Bridge from The Straits State Park. Its been my screen saver nearly 4 years. Its fun to see Robert visit the places I've seen and love.
I would love to travel around North America like this and see the United States and Canada. You're living the dream!

@@matthewclark2123 yes I've subscribed to him about a year ago. And yes he is a very warm and generous person.

Looks like you missed the best (IMHO) waterfall in the eastern U.P., I was really looking forward to you trying to pronounce Tahquamenon Falls, LOL
Hey man. We really enjoy tour travels. We also enjoy when you show more of your evenings at the campgrounds and cook. Thanks and keep it up.
Thanks for weathering the elements to provide another entertaining episode!
Great choice on the pasty! I make them every year, and they are to die for! It's basically sirloin and rutabaga (or potatoes) wrapped in pastry dough. They started in Wales/UK for the workers in the mines to have a warm lunch in a pocket.
Another great tour. You are so right about national park rangers.

It just so happens I am up by the Mackinaw bridge the weekend you released this video. I have been waiting for this video forever!
Robert, if you get a chance, there are many beautiful and interesting things to see on the west coast of the lower peninsula.
My mother was born on Mackinac Island. Grandfather was a stone mason and built many things there.
Was she fed fudge for her first meal?
@@minshullj It's possible. But I think the fudge was mostly for tourists. She always referred to them as "fudgies". ha!
Imagine there were a lot of stories passed down that you could tell about living on the island.
@@marilynwelther5823 Oh yeah. My mother was quite a character.
Fellow Yooper here! Thank for showing the beaches at Pictured Rocks. I live about an hour away and can you believe haven't seen them and I've lived here over 40 years! They will definitely be on my list of places to go! And guess what? It's been raining allll day here in Escanaba!🤦🏼♀️
Yet again a lovely episode . The Lake states look so nice . look forward to next weeks .
Wow...UP Michigan is amazingly beautiful. I envy your freedom to explore. I will explore the great USA through you until I can. Thanks!

I should've added, I'm near Duluth, MN- about 90 miles east.
That is a beautiful sight Robert I love the woods and waterfalls ❤
Very enjoyable! I don't see many other RVers videos from this part of the country. I enjoyed your Mackinac Island trip as well. Thank you!
This brought back memories of traveling in the UP as a kid. I swear it was always raining.
Hello
I follow your movies which are an example
The most amazing I have seen so far
Editing. Your original music
The photo shoots.
Simply spectacular
!!!!
Thank you very much
I am increasingly watching your movies and you have enough to fill a NBC library
You give me ideas that one day I will fulfill them.
I have a close family in the U.S. on both ends
And I just told I YEAR AGO TO my daughter one day we would drive from coast to coast in the United States. The her husband of {an American originally} said what patience you have ...

Hey Robert, just so you know, the Pastie was made as a ready meal for the Cornish Tin Miners many years ago. Eaten cold, way underground out to sea.
I did much of the same trip through the U.P. about three weeks after you. The fall colors were starting and the seasonal change was awesome. I grew up there but moved to Montana & Yellowstone 40 years ago. Love your travels, makes me want to get out too.
Yes it does look alittle like Maine. The family and I used to vacation in Maine every August,before moving to Florida. Maine is a beautiful State.
I thought so too when I worked out in Jay/Farmington area for a few months in the winter. But up there had mountains off in the distance for the view so I liked it just a little more than home in the UP.
A fresh hot Pasty makes a wonderful hearty breakfast. You won't feel hungry again until dinnertime! I'm glad you enjoyed my home state of Michigan and you went through the very best parts of it first!
Should have gone all the way to Sault Set Marie on the border. Spent a winter there in the Air Force and learned what cold really is! Great video series Robert.
nother spot to put on my list. Great job Robert.
Lake Superior - "Unsalted and shark free"! Bay Furnace is a National Forest CG, thus 1/2 price if you have the national senior pass.

Sandy Shores is a great campground, hit me up and I'll show you around. Not only the town but the dunes. Keep up the great work.
My dad and I made almost the same trip last summer! We left north Alabama on May 30, 2019. We also saw Yellowstone, Mt. Rushmore, Devils tower, the badlands. Stopped at the Corn Palace, the museum over the interstate in Kearney Nebraska. Went to Wall Drugs (which I REALLY didn’t like). Seen mining museum in Butte Montana. Was in a hailstorm in Butte. Snowed 8 inches in Yellowstone 2 days before we got there. Pop traded his 2014 Colorado for a brand new one 2 days before we left! Seats were pretty stiff and uncomfortable! Lol. We were supposed to go back this summer and do the Grand Canyon, go back to Yellowstone. See Arches and Needles parks. We don’t think we are going to get to finish our trip this year. We left Yellowstone the route you did! I was pretty much terrorized till that was over. Stunningly beautiful but scary as all get out!
You didnt check out the big furnace near at the campground. It is pretty cool!
Glad you enjoyed the UP weather. I enjoy seeing people enjoying my home state.
Thank you for showing my home state. I left to live in the Philippines 22 years ago. Yes I miss home but you have made my day
Robert I love taking trips with you in your videos! Beautiful concept, delightful presentation. And you don't have to listen to me snore!
You know you are in UP when you need a jacket in August! Look forward to the next video!
Hey you drove within a mile of my camp. So cool. Love seeing all the drone footage of the area. New sub. Thanks for sharing.
That's my class B van in front of you when you were driving into Bay Furnace. I talked with you for a few minutes later in the day use area. Too bad about the weather turning bad.
I remember. I'll be back one of these days.
Senor, Robert I haven’t seen any videos of you on the mysterious “banana boat”?
Also Drummond Island is cool. And the mom and pop pasty shops have mostly closed up. They were so delicious. Nothing like the pasties available now.
Great video on Michigan 👍
I live in Michigan🥊🥊
Very beautiful and nicely kept parks and lakes.It's nice to have a walk like this with you and have a glimpse.
I can't wait to do a great lake tour. I always have wanted to go to the upper peninsula.
Upper Peninsula is a real good place to visit.. just be aware about many mosquito in May & June.
@@USARoadtrip364 thanks for the tip.
Him Her me too! Hopefully in the near future😁
He missed the Sault!!!
And Tahquenomin!
Wow... Thanks for the great video.. As I am a Michigander I love how you went to some of my favorite places.
A lot of beautiful scenery. Really enjoy seeing Michigan.
Robert thank you for another video with great content. Can you include some of your grocery shopping adventures to your videos? I don’t mind if your videos are even longer, I think they are excellent
Ahh pasties. Good with gravy too. They would feed these to the miners like in Mineral Point, Wisconsin. My first introduction was in song " Sense of Wonder" by Van Morrison no doubt a travel down memory lane in Belfast " Pastie suppers down at Davey's chipper
Gravy rings, wagon wheels
Bambracks, snowballs". Then I had the real deal in the UP. Ended up living in Wisconsin for.25 years and having access to Pasties. Some of my favorite travels is getting in touch with nature a hike.in the woods, being on a.lake, hearing the ocean, enjoying sunrise/ sunsets, and enjoying local cuisine like pasties.
Oh my god, I have been here about twice time. In 2018, we stay in a house and it is right behind the casino.
Floridian in upper UP. It’s 55 and cold. UPer finally summer is here.
they brought the pasty from English miners to Midwest miners to the California gold rush towns. very good and filling
Your videos help so much during this time when we are limited. Your my vacation
Hello Robert! Great video. As a native Michigainian, I very much enjoyed your tour.
I live in the UP! Pastys are awesome hey robert?! U should try it with chilli ontop. And back in the day the iron minors loved eating pastys because they could just grab it with their hands and it was a whole meal in one.
Thank you for the U.P. video, Robert. We vacation there every there and you have given us ideas for new places to explore.
Again you traveled someplace I have seen, so enjoyed it in a special way. Looking forward to the next episode. Love the pink poncho.
Your 5 year Mini Tini review was my first Traveling Robert video (about 3 months ago). I subscribed and have been catching up on your videos since. I'm really anxious to see some new content with Mini Tini 2. Stay safe.
Not going to UP, looks like my state in Northern Maine. Evergreen trees and more trees. Plus mosquitoes & Black flies. Tks for saving me the trip. Although our Fall season, unlike UP, is Spectacular, colorful and dry.
Unlike the u p? You don't really know what you are talking about. You could not ask for better color in the fall than michigan. This is from the first week of september
Outstanding video Robert l can't believe the colour and size of the Lakes etc
Beautiful video, part of the country I have not yet seen . It's to bad about the weather rain and 50 degrees or so out ,burrrrr to cold for me . Beautiful but I will take Florida heat and beaches over this . Love the channel and videos! 👍🌅🇺🇸
If you follow the steps at Sable Falls down to the beach you can stand at the base of the sand dune and see Sable Creek empty into Lake Superior. It’s quite a strenuous hike back up when you are tired so not worth it on a rainy day.
Loved the rain!
Robert, you should check out key west again. They repaved Duvall st and many of the bars and stores remodeled their insides. Some places even closed for good. The keys are open as of June 1st.
Going soon
Kedves Robert! Ez a videója is nagyon tetszett! A videóinak semmivel össze nem téveszthető hangulata van, imádom őket! Tisztelettel: F. Attila Magyarországról.
We visited the Upper Peninsula a couple of weeks ago. Was cool, highs in the 50's lows in the 30's , but sunny. will be posting a video on the trip. We did go and see the Bat Furnace , very interesting!
I have been wanting to visit the UP. This gives me a good idea what to see here.
Check out Wander Dano if you want to see more. He lives in Ohio but comes here to the Yoop to camp several times a year. 🙂
