I spent four years as a child 8-11 years old in the early sixties living on Whidbey Island. I’ve lived in many states around the country and parts of Europe as well . Whidbey is hands down the best place I have ever lived. Wonderful place to grow up if your an outdoors kind of kid.
Great video of our place we call home...and yes that Logan berry is one of my favorites. I hope you got to explore a lot more. Goose rock hike by deception pass provides a great view as does a little trip off island up to top of mt erie
Really enjoyable video of a very nice place that I have visited numerous times over several decades. You capture some of the highlights that Whidbey Island has to offer. We love Coupeville and Langley. I own a vacation rental in the North Central Cascades and often direct guests from out-of-state to Whidbey to get a completely different experience than that of being in the mountains. Deception Pass is awesome. Washington is so diverse. Drive an hour or so in any direction from the Seattle area and you will find yourself in a different world. Thanks for sharing your delightful day. Ignore the trolls.
Wow! My dream is to move to Washington State and to celebrate my graduation, I'm going to be taking a trip and staying at this island at an Airbnb. Decided to watch a video and it looks so beautiful. I have lived in the desert all my life and have always been angry. Now I get to be happy and enjoy many firsts in my life. I also have a crush on someone from New York and I hope everything goes well with that as well. My life is starting to get so blissful. Also look forward to eating the mussels for the first time. So excited about this new journey in my life.
Fridalgo Island where the town Anacortes is, is not the mainland where Deception Pass bridge connect to from Whidbey Island. The main land is where the towns of Mount Vernon, and Everett are. iYou do know the locals are laughing at you. There’s so much more to this island, you all should of went to the cemetery in Coupeville to learn more about the history. And to learn about the Native Americans who also had an impact in this area. I should write a book!
Sorry, but this video annoyed me for several reasons. Do some research! The first three minutes aren't even on Whidbey. The Deception Pass bridge connects Whidbey to Fidalgo Island (there is another bridge that leads to the mainland). The bridge is not under construction, it is being painted. Ebey is pronounced Ee-be (not Ebbie) And finally, the "government" did not take over the prairie, it was a grassroots effort leading to preservation and conservation easements. Most of the land is still privately owned and is farmland.
Yikes, your attitude is terrible. I live on Whidbey, I still pronounce stuff incorrectly and I would never expect a visitor to pronounce stuff correctly. I don’t know why you found it necessary to be so rude, but hopefully in the 3 years since you made this comment you have gotten a grip on your attitude.
Thanks for your feedback, Carrie. You're right.. we love to eat! We feel it is a great way to experience a new place/ culture. So much so that we have actually made whole videos JUST on eating. :) We appreciate the time you took to watch this video and we certainly are open to constructive criticism, but I do hope you (and @StacyFlagg) keep in mind that we are real people on the other end off the computer. We read every comment that comes through and take criticism and negativity to heart. We spend many hours planning, filming and editing videos for the enjoyment of others. Do we always hit the mark.. absolutely not but we are simply trying to find the most enjoyment out of life and share our journey along the way. Take care, and I hope you have a great rest of your week!

It is a special place indeed! ☺️
Are you back to Whidbey? I am looking at a move to Oak Harbor.
@@kets4443 sorry no, but I have been back on visits.
I miss living on the Island. I definitely miss getting Dungeness Crab when I can. But I so miss the scenery and the laid back attitude of the island!
It is definitely a beautiful and special place! Thanks for watching!
Where is a good place for dungeness crab? We might visit Whidbey in the spring.

I would love some mussel juice! lol Sign me up
If you guys could slow your video down a bit and let people enjoy my beautiful Puget Sound a little more leisurely, it would be better!
How do you use the $65 off your first airbnb on the island?

Thanks so much for watching Stacy, appreciate all the feedback!
Yes, people need to do research.

Dude!,
Chill.
Wait til they try to pronounce Puyallup.
The eating portion was way over board! As one poster already noted, lots of miss info given out! Sad as the subject matter is stunning!!!
