What a great Day 1! Thanks for sharing!
I love that park. The whole area looks fantastic. I'll put White Sales Brewing on my map. I'm a big beer fan. Definitely looked good. The random artwork was amazing.
Yes we would go back to Nanaimo for sure and would definitely hit up the brewery again.
What a very nice hotel room. And I think the one line two way road would have been pretty neat. Everything is so pretty where you are. I love all the yellow boats! Great video new friend!
Very interesting vidz. Thanks. Keep it up

British Colombia has a great potential. Beautiful vlog thanks.

Love the enthusiasm! Looked so clean and beautiful! Excited for you! Never been to BC but it looks like it’s fun. Great info! Loved all the water. Reminded me of New England! Thanks for sharing !
Yay to getting on a plane. Nice highway view to start your trip with.
Nanaimo looks so lovely.
How was lees chicken?
They look like big samples on your beer paddle.
The lagoon looked so good.
Deer are so graceful.
A big full day, well done guys
Steep and narrow roads are a norm in our travels because Wayne gravitates to them, lol! Did it save you time in the end? You had us at "most comfortable bed"! How big were those flight glasses?! CUTE baby deer! What kind of wine was Alan trying?
I enjoyed watching it . Subs done my friend.
Appreciate it 😊
Its a good trip of you guys, beautiful place to visit. Thanks for sharing…

Same! Such a pretty province.
wow you covered a lot in one day. totally understand the need for one hour rest. Which was your favorite craft beer? Nanaiamo looks like good place to do a lot of walking.
This vid brought me to another country! I hope i could visit here someday. The views are beautiful! I enjoy this virtual travel a lot! I look forward for your next travel vlog!
That lunch spot looked good! How was the chicken sandwich? Such a beautiful city! We have to come see this place someday, our kind of town!
The hubby really liked it. Yes such a great city.
BC looks amazing, very jealous that you get to see such wonderful sights over there
I live in BC and have never heard of Lee’s Famous Chicken… maybe it is just one restaurant or a chain only on Vancouver Island? This was a really nice video and great tour!
Too funny. I actually looked them up and there are only 3 of them in Campbell River, Duncan and Nanaimo. The rest are in central USA.
Wow another place in Canada I knew nothing about! Thanks for sharing the sights! I love how you guys always rest with a beer. Congrats on your first flight since the pandemic. Hope you get to take many more!
Thank you!! Flying again was so fun. And yes, rests are best with beers 🤣
Hey guys, wow this video was amazing!!!Everything looks so clean and beautiful!!!!The hotel room looks super luxurious, and the food looks amazing!!!!The narrow road looked so scary!!!!And how lucky where you to see the mommy and baby deer💖thanks for valuable info!!!Mmmm I can't pick a favorite activity....😋Hope you guys have a awesome day
Thanks so much! Yes the deer sighting was amazing to see. Enjoy the day 😊

Wow, so much to do in Nanaimo! You guys did soo much in one day! Beautiful nature and delicious food. The craft beer looked really good!
Wow what a stunning place to explore, BC has been on my bucket list for a long time and hopefully as travel restrictions ease I will be able to do a road trip similar to yours. Cannot wait to see the rest of your trip
Lovely and more than rich!
❤️We all are favored to see your magnificence.❤️
Thank you so much for your wonderful moments
Thank you so much 😊
2:00 that road looked like all the roads in the countryside of the UK, we’re used to cliff edge and cars coming towards us😅
It’s so exciting to see you travelling more after all this craziness, we can’t wait to get back to it soon. The brewery you visited looked so nice and quiet!
I love the neck point park and the shack island, definitely must visit, by the way how was the beer? did you drink all the glass?
It was beautiful there. Yes the beer was great and we drank them all 🤣
I've been on a Canada travel kick lately, and this isn't helping!! Great video and new friends here!!
There's plenty to see and do here so you should definitely plan a trip!!
Travelling is the most important therapy for out daily life, I am so impressed and enjoyed watching your stunning vlog
Thank you so much!
Love the narration and it must be exciting to fly and go places again. Looking forward to day 2
Looks an awesome place that definitely worth a visit!!! Awesome nature! The chicken nuggets looked yummy 😊
That's so exciting to see you guys hitting the road again! Beautiful views and nice lunch at Lee's Famous Chicken! That's a lot of food you got there! Your hotel seems to be so nice, having a central location is so crucial while traveling! Love how you guys always try different types of beers wherever you go!
Love to you excited and ready for adventures 😀Wow, the views on Highway view point are beautiful. Good choice of hotel location. I also like when attractions can be reached by feet :) Lagoon park is very nice and cozy. Beautiful city :)
Tasting the beer is always good to start a trip, haha. I love all the greenery surrounding along the road! Such a good place to visit!
Hey guys, what a great start to your trip, how exciting to fly again!
Ahh that detour road sounded a bit stressful, I would have enjoyed hearing the audio during the drive, I think it would have been similar to some of our prior drives 😆 good idea to stick with the main roads for the sake of the marriage!
So glad you found a brewery to take a break!
I also liked the hiding spot in the hotel room 😆
Oh man that was a very stressful drive 🤣 it's a miracle we didn't turn the car around and go back to the airport.
@@TheAverageTourist hahaha I am sooo glad you two made it through to enjoy the rest of your trip!
Imagine driving a logging truck with a full road on that road. Most likely a logging road.
It might have been! I wouldn't like driving on it ever again haha.
@The Average Tourist, Please this is for you > I dreamed I was a butterfly, flitting around in the sky; then I awoke. Now I wonder: Am I a man who dreamt of being a butterfly, or am I a butterfly dreaming that I am a man?, please upload more and more to explore the world before me, stay connected.
Great start to your toad trip! Can't wait to see more :)
We snuck in a quick getaway to Nanaimo last year too, but you found a few spots that I'll have to check out next time!
It was my first time in BC. I'd love to go back and see more of the province.
Ohhh excited for you, you guys can travel again 🤩! Love the views while driving! And your hotel looks so cozy too. Never been to that great city. Would love to visit that city someday. Again your video is always informative Sarah! Thank you for taking us with you 🤗
Glad to know that you could finally travel after a year and a half. I am sure it was an exciting trip as shown in your video. The drive to Nanaimo looks great. I love winding roads even though they are scary. I'd love to go back to BC!
It’s so exciting you finally got to take a trip after over a year! Your videos are so professional yet still so entertaining, can’t wait to watch more!! Love the water and all the scenery, soo beautiful!
Thank you very much!! It was so exciting to finally fly again.
It must have been great to be out like that after so long! 😁 I also like to walk a lot while visiting a city! 😁 Beautiful area around the city as well! All the best! Kaat
Looks like you guys had a great adventure.
Yes we had a fantastic time
never trust that GPS. . . learn to read a map?
It did look legitimate on the map! Google Maps that is 😂
