Excellent adventure. I wish to add a story about Hope (the name). I met this old-timer who had lived up there for years. He now resides in Arizona. He told me that the way he understood it was Hope got its name after the first people that lived there. It became a saying back then: Tomorrow we hope to see the sun. As the population grew so did the saying. In later years they had to think up a story about the name and glory be, here came Pierce Hope, just hopped off the train. He's been living out here now for a few years and now he hopes the sun will never go down except summer. Glad y'all are feeling better. Don't feed the bears!🙂
Wow! It was so good to see the Kenai peninsula. I lived in Alaska in the '70s/80s for 10 years, six in Homer. You brought back so many good memories. Enjoy!
I am so grateful fot your videos of Alaska. I was there in 2005 with my daughter for a high school graduation trip I planned in June 2005.. I have always wanted to return since there is so much to see. I would never get to see all this without your excellent videos! So much fun! Thank you! And, Happy very belated Birrhday Katheryn.
Oh my gosh! These videos just get better and better! AK is a beautiful state with so much to see & do! I’ve did 3 cruises to AK but next I want to just do land only! Thank you for all the videos! Giving me some great ideas what to do next time we go! I was thought Adam was going halibut fishing, nope just taco😂
Yes we highly recommend traveling by land in an RV if you can! There is so much to see and do and it's best to be able to do things at your own pace. The tacos were spectacular!
Thank you so much for taking us along your fantastic journey in Alaska. The views at the begining of the video are spectacular. Being out in nature is so good for the soul.i just don't have words for how I felt watching this video. Please accept my sincerest thank you for sharing these thrilling views and history of Alaska. 🥰🌻🐕🇺🇸
Just got home from a 10 day trip to the Kenai Peninsula with a few guys from work. Most unbelievable trip ever. And we managed to be there for the first solid week of the year, beautiful weather all week. I can't wait to go back.
The town looked so beautiful and charming! Would love to spend some time there. Glad you're feeling better - but that sucks getting sick on the road. So much beautiful hiking... even the failed attempt.
Oh I’m so glade to see both of you had speedy recovery from Covid. My husband also asked me to extend his warmest wishes to you. He is a typical IT guy without any social skills, even though he opened an UA-cam account just to give you one more subscriber and he loves all the videos, he still finds himself out of courage or appropriate words to leave in the comments section.🙄 So I just want to let you know he loves you and he does click the like 👍 button every time 🥰🥰🥰🤣🤣🤣
I love when you guys visit the smaller towns and Hope is not exception. I also like that you don't skim over the small local museums too. Skilak lake is gorgeous, those colors are amazing! When people think of Alaska, I think most of think of snow and mountains. I had a friend go during the summer years ago and he couldn't stop talking about the wildflowers. It's really nice to see you guys experience them too.
That museum was high quality! And Hope was a nice little gem filled with very nice people. We're glad we got to do the Skilak hike...it was amazing! Ya you always think of snow and Alaska, but the summers are wonderful!
I L❤️VED the intro to this video…Kathryn yelling “I Love Alaska!” So much beauty…love the coastal towns…they look like what I think Alaska looks like! The coffee stand, tacos and EVERYTHING else was fabulous! I also loved your music choices and all of the history! I could go on and on…just love you three…you are so real and talented❣️😘❤️❤️❤️🐶🥰
Glad to hear you're recovering from Covid., and continuing with Alaska. Best buy $$ the US ever made. Most of us are lucky that you can show us the Alaska views that only we can dream of. Plan 2 was not disappointing. Waiting for the next episode. 👍👍🏍🏍🏍🙋♂️
I have been praying for your Safety while in Alaska from the wildlife, I never thought to pray for COVID-19 😳. I praise God you both came through it and that there will be no lingering affects 🙏🙏🙏💖
What a great time you had visiting Homer and the beautiful hikes and views (we all) took in with you. Hope, AK is such a beautiful place, would of never seen it had I not been here watching !!!!! Thxs.
Well Guys, I must admit as a lifelong Anchorage resident, I thoroughly approve of your representation of the Kenai Peninsula. I love hope, I have been whitewater rafting down Six Mile more times than I can count. You guys must be exhausted at the end of a day - you really packed a lot into a short amount of time. Homer is so fun. Did you happen to go to The Salty Dawg? Our family has a cabin on Halibut Cove...so I am excited to see where your next adventure lands you. I must admit, I have never eaten salmon skin. How was it? And don't feel bad, I don't really like any salmon except fresh reds (sockeye salmon). We are a bit of salmon snobs up here. Currently the silvers, or Coho Salmon, are starting to run on the Kenai. You guys maybe should just move to Alaska, we would welcome you with open arms! Thanks for supporting out local tourism industry. Will you be back through Anchorage? If you ever need a free place to park overnight - or a warm shower - we live on a large one-acre property in Sand Lake Area, with plenty of safe and quiet parking where you can rest uninterrupted. I am sorry you got COVID, I am an ER RN at Providence in Anchorage, let not meet there ok? Take care of yourself and safe travels...wherever you may be!
Thank you Amy, that means a lot! We are definitely constantly exhausted, but so much to see and do! We did visit The Salty Dawg with some RVer friends a different day off camera, but as non-drinkers, it was more of just a "neat to see the dollar bills" stop for us. The salmon skin was really good! I love crispy skin on chicken, so it added the same type of feel for me. We definitely would love to live in Alaska if it wasn't so far from family, we have truly had the best time here. We appreciate the parking offer as well, Kathryn is flying out of Anchorage for a wedding this week, but I plan to hop back down to the Kenai Peninsula to fish while she is gone. And hopefully no ER visits for us!
Beautiful job, the scenery is stunning and you guys are a great team. Just discovered your van tour and this lead me to your channel.. Lots of vids to watch and you are both really good communicators. I look forward to working my way through your journeys.👍
I visited Alaska twice- in 2004 and 2010. It is the most beautiful place. And it is so large it is impossible to see all of it in one visit. Enjoy your stay !
Thanks for another great video. Sorry you both were ill, glad you are feeling better. We love salmon too especially fresh. Be careful about feeding salmon to your dog it is fattier. My husband usually grills it outside. I thoroughly enjoy your hikes because I wouldn't be able to do them.
So happy to have discovered you two. Been binging on your adventures and have absolutely no regrets 😆. Love your channel, your honest take on your situations, and mostly your way of traveling. Not just about “van life” or “travel” for the sale of travel. You both have this rare quality about how you present your adventures that is just so lovable. My wife and I are grateful for your work and we thoroughly enjoy every second of your videos. Keep it up and stay uniquely you. We so enjoyed our latest trip to Redding area thanks in part to your Redding episode.
Your Alaska adventure is so fantastic ! Have enjoyed every moment and can appreciate all the work you put into planning, researching, and recording so we can all enjoy it with you. So glad you are recovered from your illness and can adventure on ! Hugs from your Oregon Buddy !
Still loving your excellent videos. Just think how much fun you will have reliving these adventures in your old age......well when the number gets a lot bigger. I have a feeling you will still be on the go but this documentation is just stunning. Thank you for sharing with us and making me wish I was still there.
I met a couple from Homer while in Arizona! Newly retired snowbirds. Amazing people! I guess they had known Bob Wells from before hie nomad life began! I'm excited to see where they are from! 🎉
Hello Adventurers😊😊😊, this was an AWESOME watch hiking those scenic trails. The views are absolutely amazing. Now, you guys still won't share those delicious fish tacos...not fair! I'm Looking forward to your next Alaska adventure where board a boat. I can't wait for that! OUTSTANDING VIDEO👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍!
Sorry you got Covid and had to put a “delay” on the itinerary. You’re doing an excellent job of sharing the amazing scenery; we enjoy watching your posts together. I enjoy reading a lot of the other comments, too!
Beautiful video! My Aunt lives along the Sterling Highway near Cooper Landing overlooking Kenai Lake. I visited once when I was 8, but would love to go back. Glad you got to enjoy that part of the state!
Glad you are feeling better. Yum fresh salmon and halibut fish tacos. Doesn't seem like you can take a wrong turn in Alaska when it comes to the views. Thanks for another great video.
Wow! I’d love to check out Hope on my next visit to Alaska! Glad you guys are on the mend. So glad I found your channel! I loved your NH videos… my home state! 🙌🏻
Great videos! I just missed you in Hope. I’m on a 300 day trip in my Jeep and have been up in Alaska and Canada for about a month now. Heading back down to the lower 48 in a couple days. I left Massachusetts June 6 to help the homeless in 50 cities in North America. Keep up the great work!
Awesome video and gorgeous views!! The hikes were Beautiful and the water and seal was gorgeous.The fish tacos looked delicious.I love halibut.Im so enjoying the Alaska videos.Cant wait to the next videos.Im so sorry yall got covid but happy yall are better.Stay safe my friends...
I just found your Alaska travel vids! So much fun, information and enthusiasm! Thank you. I'm headed up there next month July 2023, with emphasis on Denali, Seward and Brooks Falls!!! It's my 2nd trip and I'm determined to do everything I missed last time. BTW, I love your Oakleys!!!!!!
I love Alaska!! Been up there four times!! The only time fishing was out Homer, I caught a108 pd Halibut!!! His name was Freddy, I started calling for Freddy about 30 minutes before I caught him!!!! Four of us went up that time, my spouse, my brother and sister in law !!! We had split the Halibut up and we had enough to feed all of our friends that summer!! It was great!! They would call us over, all we had to do was bring our package of Halibut over, they made it their way and we got to eat it!!!! You cannot describe Alaska to its real attributes!!! The people are so very friendly up there, pictures still don't show the beauty you see by actually being up there, and wherever you go, you can do a 360 deg and it's beautiful all the way around!!! They seem to mention that quite often!!! Great Videos showing off our 49th State!!!!! 🤗♥️🙏🏼
Oh wow! What a deal that is! You're right...everyone has been very friendly here and the scenery never ends or gets old! It's been a dream trip! Thanks and thanks for watching!
You're both living the dream we hope to realize some day now that we're empty nesters 🙂 Thanks for sharing your journey! Best wishes from Johnny & Shauna in Ohio!
The Kenai was also my favorite when visiting Alaska. In Homer I caught two 50 lb halibut on my last day there and I was able to have the fish cut and taken home on the plane. A warning about Turnagain Arm around Hope. The waters there have the second highest tides in the world and do not venture off from the road like beachcombers. When I was there just a day before a woman got stuck walking out and couldn’t be pulled out in time by onlookers and drowned.
Wow that’s quite a haul! That is scary and sad! We didn’t venture too far out there. We heeded the warning signs about the terrain. That is sad and unfortunate about that woman
@@AdventuresofAplusK Driving and living the experience is so much better than a cruise ship. You feel the experience rather than looking from a far away ship. Maybe the future will develop a portal to just walk through and be there like a Star Trek transporter.
I enjoyed seeing both Skilak Lake and Homer. Thank you! Are you warming up to seafood more through your travels? Those Halibut and Rockfish tacos looked delicious! Kudos for another wonderful video!
I'm so proud of Kathryn! She is really warming up to it! She'll definitely still choose a good steak over any seafood, but she has really branched out and tried lots of seafood! Thanks!
Another part of Alaska I now want to visit - thanks for sharing! Those fish tacos looked scrumptious! Also, once you have super-fresh salmon like you made, it's incredibly hard to eat it any other way. I can still taste the grilled salmon from when I was there - caught, grilled, and eaten within an hour. BTW, love your drone shots! Even though it's probably not capturing the full experience of what you're seeing in person, it certainly helps us see the true majesty and splendor of Alaska - thanks again!!
Ya you can't beat the freshness of that salmon. It was so good. I have one more piece in the freezer. I'm curious how different it'll be. Still good I'm sure! This video was our new drone's debut! We love using the drone when we can! We love the perspective it gives also! Thank you!
Another great video. Thanks for sharing with us your adventure. What I like the most is your positive attitude and your good mood. You are great. I went to Alaska with my family in 2016 and that trip was insane. I love Alaska. Please consider Harding Icefield Trailhead. It´s one the best hikes I have ever done in my whole life
I do orbits a lot. I mostly do them free hand though. I don't use a lot of the features it offers. I want to try out the mastershots though sometime. I know it has tons of sensors all over it, I'm just nervous to let it just fly off without me controlling it!
@@AdventuresofAplusK yeah, with mastershots you just have to be in a big open area so it doesn't crash into anything. Any sideways motions can be dangerous because there are no side sensors.

Oh interesting! We like that story too! Thank you for sharing that!
I have lived in Hope for forty-five years and have never heard that story.
Wow! It was so good to see the Kenai peninsula. I lived in Alaska in the '70s/80s for 10 years, six in Homer. You brought back so many good memories. Enjoy!
Homer and the Kenai are some of our favorite places so far on this trip!
Glad y’all are better. All I can say is more, more, more. We look forward to seeing each one of your adventures. Thanks!
Thank you! All good now! We're extra excited for the next handful of videos!
I am so grateful fot your videos of Alaska. I was there in 2005 with my daughter for a high school graduation trip I planned in June 2005..

If you travel to Alaska by land, I recommend renting an RV. It's the best way to see the state.
Yes we highly recommend traveling by land in an RV if you can! There is so much to see and do and it's best to be able to do things at your own pace. The tacos were spectacular!

It was a bummer, but thankfully it really just ended up being a minor inconvenience more than anything! Hope and Homer were so charming and fun!

You guys are awesome! You bring so much amazingness to so many! Huge thanks
Thank you and thanks for watching!
Wow, that music and scenery brought tears to my eyes! What beauty.
Thank you!
Great job guys! Love seeing Kona
Sorry you both got sick but am glad you have recovered from Covid. Thanks for the awesomeness & safe travels to you!!!
All good now! Thank you!
The splotches on the lake make Skilak look like a different planet!
One of the best parts about Alaska is how dog friendly it is. I'm enjoying your videos, thanks for posting.
We love that too! Thanks and thanks for watching!

We'll be screaming it from the mountain tops before we leave here! We love sharing what we learn along the way!
Glad to hear you're recovering from Covid., and continuing with Alaska. Best buy $$ the US ever made. Most of us are lucky that you can show us the Alaska views that only we can dream of. Plan 2 was not disappointing. Waiting for the next episode. 👍👍🏍🏍🏍🙋♂️
Yes the US got quite the bargain out of this state! 😂
We're all good now and fully recovered! Thanks!
Yessss, Kathryn and Adam. Seward, Girdwood, and Hope!
Three of our favorite places!
You two are my favorite UA-camrs!! Hands down the best! Love what you do and it creates joy for me. Thank you for being you!
That is a very kind comment! Thank you so much! We are lucky we get to do what we do!
I have been praying for your Safety while in Alaska from the wildlife, I never thought to pray for COVID-19 😳. I praise God you both came through it and that there will be no lingering affects 🙏🙏🙏💖
All good now! Thanks!
I skip around watching your videos and see that you got Covid-19 while you were in Alaska. I had my first case of it lately. Glad you recovered well
Yep that was our one and only bout with it. Thanks for watching!
What a great time you had visiting Homer and the beautiful hikes and views (we all) took in with you. Hope, AK is such a beautiful place, would of never seen it had I not been here watching !!!!! Thxs.
Great job, always go with the flow. So happy you are healthy again.

All good now! Thank you!
Glad y'all are feeling better! Another beautiful video from y'all! Love the excitement you guys exude!!
Thanks, Chrisy! We're all good now and thankfully it was only a minor setback
I grew up in Sterling so it was really nice seeing this video of places that I used to see as a little kid and haven't seen in 25 years thank you
Awesome! Thanks for watching!
What an adventure guys. It's so beautiful. Love the nature. Be safe and stay well ✌
Thank you!
Well Guys, I must admit as a lifelong Anchorage resident, I thoroughly approve of your representation of the Kenai Peninsula. I love hope, I have been whitewater rafting down Six Mile more times than I can count. You guys must be exhausted at the end of a day - you really packed a lot into a short amount of time.

I am sorry you got COVID, I am an ER RN at Providence in Anchorage, let not meet there ok? Take care of yourself and safe travels...wherever you may be!
Thank you Amy, that means a lot! We are definitely constantly exhausted, but so much to see and do! We did visit The Salty Dawg with some RVer friends a different day off camera, but as non-drinkers, it was more of just a "neat to see the dollar bills" stop for us. The salmon skin was really good! I love crispy skin on chicken, so it added the same type of feel for me. We definitely would love to live in Alaska if it wasn't so far from family, we have truly had the best time here. We appreciate the parking offer as well, Kathryn is flying out of Anchorage for a wedding this week, but I plan to hop back down to the Kenai Peninsula to fish while she is gone. And hopefully no ER visits for us!
Glad you two are feeling better. We are loving you loving all your adventures in Alaska. Thanks again for a stellar video.
All good now, Bob! Thank you!
Beautiful photography and drone footage. Just like always. You guys rock!
Thank you!
Born and raised on the Kenai Peninsula. Love life here!!
The small amount of time we spent there we can see why you love it so much!
So glad you are both well again and continuing your adventures with an another super and wonderful video!!! Thanks!!!
All good now! Thank you!
I loved the alternate hike the best, such a gorgeous lake!
It was a great plan B that maybe should've been plan A!
Ya'll making me homesick! Born and raised there, haven't been home in a few years but I'll never give up my home there!
I wouldn't either if I were you! Thanks for watching!
Beautiful job, the scenery is stunning and you guys are a great team. Just discovered your van tour and this lead me to your channel.. Lots of vids to watch and you are both really good communicators. I look forward to working my way through your journeys.👍
Thank you and thanks for watching!
The beauty of nature at its finest; thanks for the ride😎👌😎😎😎😎👌👍🤩
Wow, amazing. This is the way to see Alaska. Beautiful, I love your videos. Thank you so much for sharing.
I love road trips. And from all the travel channels on UA-cam, yours is my favorites. Keep up the good work
Thank you so much!
Wow how beautiful! I'm glad you got to do the second hike. Worth it for sure! Can't wait to see what's next!
That second hike totally made up for the miss before it! Thanks and thanks for watching!
The drone shots in this video were particularly gorgeous. So well done. Sorry about the Covid and glad you made it to the Kenai Peninsula.
Word on that 🤙🏽
Our new drone made its debut in this video! Thanks and thanks for watching!
Skilak Lookout - WOW!! Fish tacos - making me SO HUNGRY!! Bless you on your way.
Thanks, Chris!
I visited Alaska twice- in 2004 and 2010. It is the most beautiful place. And it is so large it is impossible to see all of it in one visit. Enjoy your stay !
You got that right! We'll be back again and again!
Bring back many great memories of my 30 days adventure by land and water in Alaska Jun/Jul 2022
Thanks for watching, Hank!
I realize that it’s hard to make videos which are easy and entertaining for us to watch. Thanks!
That means a lot to us! Thank you!
My mouth literally watered when I saw you guys eating those yummy fish tacos. Oh, I wish I was there with you guys enjoying that.
They were outrageous!
Thanks for another great video. Sorry you both were ill, glad you are feeling better. We love salmon too especially fresh. Be careful about feeding salmon to your dog it is fattier. My husband usually grills it outside. I thoroughly enjoy your hikes because I wouldn't be able to do them.
Thankfully it didn’t affect us too much! It was only a minor setback. That salmon was delicious! Kona only got that little nibble. Thanks!
wow and I mean wow!!! what a neat place!!
Glad ur over covid and back to ur adventures! God bless and enjoy, thanks!
All good now! Thanks!
You guys are my inspiration and motivation life. God bless you both.
Thanks for watching!
At this point I literally look forward to the dancing scenes. 😂
So happy to have discovered you two. Been binging on your adventures and have absolutely no regrets 😆. Love your channel, your honest take on your situations, and mostly your way of traveling.

Thank you so much, Mary! That means a lot to us! We're all good and healthy now!
Hope isn't much changed since I first visited in 1971. Same charming vibe. Great local donation museum! Of course, beautiful scenery everywhere.
It was sort of like going back in time and it was awesome!
Wow, it's all soooo beautiful!! We're so enjoying your trip!
Thanks, Donna!
loving the drone shots. great way to enhance your experience.
Our new drone made its debut in this video! Thanks!
Your videos look beautiful, can't imagine what it looks like in real. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks a lot, Ernie!
Another beautiful video! Tips from a chef when cooking salmon: season with soy sauce, pepper, bit of salt. Cover with pesto paste. Cook and Enjoy!
Ooooo thanks for the tip! I'll try that on my last piece!
You guys surprised me, going to Homer first and I am glad you did! Thanks for showing us and I am looking forward to your next adventure.
We're extra excited to share the next handful of videos!
Still loving your excellent videos. Just think how much fun you will have reliving these adventures in your old age......well when the number gets a lot bigger. I have a feeling you will still be on the go but this documentation is just stunning. Thank you for sharing with us and making me wish I was still there.
Yes we look forward to rewatching these with loved ones later down the line! Thank you!
great effort on drone footage at Palmer trail and the Skilak view is what I imagine Alaska to be. Want the fish taco
Thank you! This was our new drone's debut!
Fantastic as usual! Can’t believe you two are out hiking mountains so soon after COVID.
Luckily it was a minor case! Thank you!
I met a couple from Homer while in Arizona! Newly retired snowbirds. Amazing people! I guess they had known Bob Wells from before hie nomad life began! I'm excited to see where they are from! 🎉
How cool!
Glad you're feeling better! Absolutely beautiful! I think Alaska is the hidden gem of the US. Love the clips with Kona
Alaska has been a dream trip come true! Thanks!
Hello Adventurers😊😊😊, this was an AWESOME watch hiking those scenic trails. The views are absolutely amazing. Now, you guys still won't share those delicious fish tacos...not fair! I'm Looking forward to your next Alaska adventure where board a boat. I can't wait for that! OUTSTANDING VIDEO👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍!
Ooooweee those tacos were delish! Skilak Lake was a treat for the eyes! Thanks, Al!
Sorry you got Covid and had to put a “delay” on the itinerary. You’re doing an excellent job of sharing the amazing scenery; we enjoy watching your posts together. I enjoy reading a lot of the other comments, too!
Ya it was a bummer, but thankfully only a minor set back! Thank you so much!
Watching your channel so I can get ideas on where to go on weekends now. 😄
We're glad we could help! Get out to Hatcher Pass if you haven't been!
Beautiful video! My Aunt lives along the Sterling Highway near Cooper Landing overlooking Kenai Lake. I visited once when I was 8, but would love to go back. Glad you got to enjoy that part of the state!
That is a gorgeous area! We can't wait to go back again one day!
Glad you are feeling better. Yum fresh salmon and halibut fish tacos. Doesn't seem like you can take a wrong turn in Alaska when it comes to the views. Thanks for another great video.
No wrong turns here! That's right!
I'm from Minnesota where the summer bugs are, in my experience, much worse than in Alaska!
We totally agree with that so far from our experience!
Ooo, those halibut fish tacos looked GUUUUD!!!
They were super GUUUUD!
Wow! I’d love to check out Hope on my next visit to Alaska! Glad you guys are on the mend. So glad I found your channel! I loved your NH videos… my home state! 🙌🏻
It’s a must stop if you ask us. Thanks and thanks for watching! ❤️
Wish you both recovery from Covid as soon as possible.
We're all good now! Thank you!
Great videos! I just missed you in Hope. I’m on a 300 day trip in my Jeep and have been up in Alaska and Canada for about a month now. Heading back down to the lower 48 in a couple days. I left Massachusetts June 6 to help the homeless in 50 cities in North America. Keep up the great work!
Wow that is awesome! We hope you had a great trip! Thanks and thanks for watching!
@@AdventuresofAplusK Thank you! Seven more months to go on my trip. Be back in Massachusetts the end of February.

All good now! Thank you and thanks for watching!
I just found your Alaska travel vids! So much fun, information and enthusiasm! Thank you. I'm headed up there next month July 2023, with emphasis on Denali, Seward and Brooks Falls!!! It's my 2nd trip and I'm determined to do everything I missed last time. BTW, I love your Oakleys!!!!!!
Awesome! We hope you have a great time!
Kathryn has had the Oakleys for so long and still loves them!
Another awesome video! Looking forward to the next adventure!
We're excited to share more!
Your videos are so uplifting. Great locations guys, lucky y'all
We are very very lucky! Thank you!
Another awesome video! Thank you for sharing. Never made it to Hope or Homer during our time in AK. Was great to see it.
We're happy we can share! Thanks for watching!
I love Alaska!! Been up there four times!! The only time fishing was out Homer, I caught a108 pd Halibut!!! His name was Freddy, I started calling for Freddy about 30 minutes before I caught him!!!! Four of us went up that time, my spouse, my brother and sister in law !!! We had split the Halibut up and we had enough to feed all of our friends that summer!! It was great!! They would call us over, all we had to do was bring our package of Halibut over, they made it their way and we got to eat it!!!! You cannot describe Alaska to its real attributes!!! The people are so very friendly up there, pictures still don't show the beauty you see by actually being up there, and wherever you go, you can do a 360 deg and it's beautiful all the way around!!! They seem to mention that quite often!!! Great Videos showing off our 49th State!!!!! 🤗♥️🙏🏼
Oh wow! What a deal that is! You're right...everyone has been very friendly here and the scenery never ends or gets old! It's been a dream trip! Thanks and thanks for watching!
You're both living the dream we hope to realize some day now that we're empty nesters 🙂 Thanks for sharing your journey! Best wishes from Johnny & Shauna in Ohio!
Thank you so much for watching!
The Kenai was also my favorite when visiting Alaska. In Homer I caught two 50 lb halibut on my last day there and I was able to have the fish cut and taken home on the plane.
A warning about Turnagain Arm around Hope. The waters there have the second highest tides in the world and do not venture off from the road like beachcombers. When I was there just a day before a woman got stuck walking out and couldn’t be pulled out in time by onlookers and drowned.
Wow that’s quite a haul!
That is scary and sad! We didn’t venture too far out there. We heeded the warning signs about the terrain. That is sad and unfortunate about that woman
Sorry to hear that you got COVID - but thankfully you recovered well and are ready for new adventures! Just gorgeous views on those hikes!!💕💕
Good as new now thank you!
Awesome video... what an experience in Alaska... many driving hours ... but worth the journey!
The hours fly by when the scenery is gorgeous everywhere you go!
@@AdventuresofAplusK Driving and living the experience is so much better than a cruise ship. You feel the experience rather than looking from a far away ship. Maybe the future will develop a portal to just walk through and be there like a Star Trek transporter.
I enjoyed seeing both Skilak Lake and Homer. Thank you! Are you warming up to seafood more through your travels? Those Halibut and Rockfish tacos looked delicious! Kudos for another wonderful video!
I'm so proud of Kathryn! She is really warming up to it! She'll definitely still choose a good steak over any seafood, but she has really branched out and tried lots of seafood! Thanks!
Salmon is my favorite to cook. So quick 5in side or less!!! Salt pepper n little butter
Yum!
Another part of Alaska I now want to visit - thanks for sharing! Those fish tacos looked scrumptious! Also, once you have super-fresh salmon like you made, it's incredibly hard to eat it any other way. I can still taste the grilled salmon from when I was there - caught, grilled, and eaten within an hour. BTW, love your drone shots! Even though it's probably not capturing the full experience of what you're seeing in person, it certainly helps us see the true majesty and splendor of Alaska - thanks again!!
Ya you can't beat the freshness of that salmon. It was so good. I have one more piece in the freezer. I'm curious how different it'll be. Still good I'm sure!
This video was our new drone's debut! We love using the drone when we can! We love the perspective it gives also!
Thank you!
Spectacular...
Another Awesome video from Alaska, Hope you both feel better.
We're all good now thanks!
Another great video. Thanks for sharing with us your adventure. What I like the most is your positive attitude and your good mood. You are great.
I went to Alaska with my family in 2016 and that trip was insane. I love Alaska. Please consider Harding Icefield Trailhead. It´s one the best hikes I have ever done in my whole life
Thank you so much for your comment. That means a lot to us!
We hiked the Harding Icefield...stay tuned for that!
There are some killer drone shots in this video! Must be so freaking fun to fly and film in such incredible spaces!
Thanks! This video was new drone’s debut! It is a ton of fun to fly! I get lost filming when I’m flying it!
@@AdventuresofAplusK looks very good! I could see you doing orbits. Maybe you’re using focus track? I love that feature!
I do orbits a lot. I mostly do them free hand though. I don't use a lot of the features it offers. I want to try out the mastershots though sometime. I know it has tons of sensors all over it, I'm just nervous to let it just fly off without me controlling it!
@@AdventuresofAplusK yeah, with mastershots you just have to be in a big open area so it doesn't crash into anything. Any sideways motions can be dangerous because there are no side sensors.
Glad y'all are doing better.
All good now, thank you!
