I've said it before, and forgive me, but I'm going to say it again, this is light years ahead of the rubbish that's on TV now. Fantastic scenery, editing, and educational content too. Just perfect. Thanks for taking the time to put these videos on UA-cam. Have a Happy and Safe 2024 to you and your family, and to all who read this. 👍👍🏍🏍
Extraordinary content, quality, production and presentation, Got2Go! I've not seen a finer travelogue/documentary on the BBC or American PBS. This channel is a must-see for me, always. Cheers!
You mentioned volcanic activity, it seems like you guys missed all the fun.🤪 The green covered cliffs are amazing. Riding a motorcycle when you are cold isn’t so fun….🥶Thanks for another view of Iceland 🇮🇸✌️👏👏👏
I have to say again that your production has reached a whole new level! Wonderful to watch. Thank you.
Lea
Beautiful scenery! Mind-bending to say the least. It doesn't look cold from my nice and cozy home but, I well know the feeling! I have Renaud Syndrome from frostbite during many backcountry ski trips. I can't let my hands go below 60F or all the blood leaves them and they turn white. I wear heated gloves and my bike has heated grips and seats so I am very toasty riding in freezing temps. Like I said before, Iceland is definitely on my short list! Thank you so much for this fabulous video Lady!
Many more Roses for you! 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🏆🏆
More cheers to your riding "Partner". 🍺🍺🍻
For little "A" 🍭
Ride SAFE and BE safe Lady!
It will be great in coming years when little A is old enough - for you to show him his first adventure !
Akureyri I found to be unexpectedly magical for a larger town. If you return there, the world’s northernmost botanical garden and the nearby House of Christmas (esp when your new +1 is a bit older!) are very nice stopovers. Thank you for sharing your journeys so far with us and best wishes for 2024!
Wonderful episode again. Danke Lea!
Good evening Lea,
I prefer filming or taking pictures when the sky is a bit cloudy. There is less extreme contrast and the shadows are less harsh.
Your breakfast was like the way I do lunch on vacation.
I was in the Hardangervidda in Norway in summer and it got very cold with some snow. I put on all clothes I had with me. I was prepared for bad weather there but not for almost freezing. Oh well, I survived.
The turf church looks a lot like the houses we had in the peat marches areas in the Netherlands about 100 years ago and before.
I love herring. The Netherlands is a herring country too. The herring is not eaten raw. It is slightly petrified. Very healthy too.
I must say that the views are astounding.
iit makes me cold just watch you ride , being from so cal. thanks for going a recording your journey
Again Lea, you have outdone yourself in bringing the world a little bit closer to us. Your vids are so informative and always enjoyable. Thank you so much! Wishing you and your family a prosperous and healthy 2024. 🎉 😊
what a Nature and scenic vlog Lea !
Hi Lea, thanks for another great tour of a beautiful tranquil part of Iceland. As always, great choice of music for your awesome photography of the stunning scenery . I have a suggestion to add some mystical aura, for us native English speakers. Instead of saying the obvious "travel partner" how about calling him reisebegleiter 😊 and then A would be Kleiner reisebegleiter 😁 Merry Christmas and Happy New year and all the best in 2024. Prost Mark
Interesting and scenic country! Thanks for sharing it.
Born and raised in Siglufjörður. Wonderful vodeo.
Thank you Lea for sharing, Amazing video as allways 👍👍it looks cold but very interesting, I wish you and your family a happy new year 2024, lots of success and happiness 🎁 Ljubo!
Merry Christmas 🌹☕👌 Lea y feliz año nuevo
Superb production.. Hollywood will be calling soon.
After many years of experiments..THE only solution to cold, wet hands on a motorcycle..is handlebar muffs ( look crap but )..and combined with heated grips... allows summer gloves to be worn for good dexterity...AND giving you warm and dry hands. 😊
Beautiful scenery...and you have given us great entertainment
Stay safe
Happy new year❤🎉thanks for filming😊😊 greatly done😊
These small cities/towns are very beautiful.... wish to visit them... Nice work... Thanks Lea.....
A somewhat fishy episode! 😊 But definitely very much worth watching, I just won't get tired of Icelandic landscapes! 😍🤗
Hey Lea. As usual, great camera and drone footage in this beautiful country. Postcard photo opportunities at every turn. Very much enjoying this series. Best wishes for health and happiness in the new year. Cheers, Dan. ✌️🏍🇨🇦
Found you again after quite some time so happy i did.
Great that you are back! 🤗
Ride safe & take care...thanks for wonderful video! Christmas greetings 🎅🫰💗
Awesome , pretty and cute ❤❤❤❤❤ enjoy 🎉🎉🎉
Great video thank you very well done as always thanks for taking us along cheers to ya.
Hi Lea,Welcome…..👋👋👋
Leah, beautiful film work as usual
Thanks for this wonderful series and its unique perspective. We wouldn't mind if the episodes were longer !
It's my favorite vlog😊😊😊😊
Another wonderful addition to your videography library. Iceland is such a beautiful place. However, being the thermal mass that it is, I don’t know if I could live there. Living with the constant fear of pending volcanic eruptions would worry me too much. It would be like moving in with my mother-in-law. One never knows to what degree and when she’s going to explode. 😂
And I agree. I much prefer early morning rides. Fewer vehicles. Fewer people. More peaceful. Stronger connection with Mother Nature.
The next three little ‘A’ name guesses: Axel, Alan, and Arik.
Question: Do you or anyone you know have a collection of mini glass steins that once contained German mustard? 😂
I would bet many valuable things the answer is yes. 😂
Yes, there’s a story behind that question. But that’s for another time.
Another wonderful video. Thank you.
What kind of question is this???? 😂😂😂
You mean these old mustard glasses? My mother actually collects empty marmalade glasses because she is making her own from the berries she picks in the summer. 😂
Oh and wait: there were these mustard glasses, that also were used as drinking glasses if you refer to those! I know them!
Have to admit that I am more the French Dijon mustard type of girl though. 😂😂😂😂
And the names: no luck this week either. But I will not give any further hints, you are heading in the right direction!
@@Got2Go Funny story. We are fortunate to have many ethnic food stores, including a German grocery, store in our city. They import many things. When my kids were younger, every time we visited, the staff would give my kids free European weiners, just like they were lollipops. 🤣
Anyway, my son has developed a taste for all things hot and spicy, the hotter, the spicier, the better. You can imagine the things I’ll threaten to say about his choice of brides at his wedding. 🤣 He’d best behave… or else. 🤣
Continuing… 🙄
We recently visited the German grocery store and my sixteen-year-old son (now 6’ 1”) reminisced about the free weiners. The older German lady behind the counter must have overheard our conversation and gave my little boy a weiner. 🤣 The ensuing conversation moved to hot, spicy, and mustard. In German culinary terms, she said, these are mutually exclusive because pepper to German tastebuds is spicy. 🤣 She then told us about the popular German mustard in the miniature glass replica beer steins. She said every German family has or has had a collection of them at one point in their lifetime.
Hence, the question I asked. 🍻
@@Rebel_Canuck thats indeed also a memory of my childhood - if you go to a german supermarket with a meat/sausage counter I always got a wienerli also. I never have thought about it, but it is strange indeed!!!!
All the best to you and your family for the New year ❤ X
Fabulous content as usual. Consider getting a heated jacket and gloves. I have some from Gerbing, they are a game changer in cold weather.
Thank you Got2Go ❤😊
Amazing lea 🏍🏍⛰🏔🌋
Beautiful ❤
What an amazing ride! Thank you Lea for sharing. 😊
Bonito documentario, dia frio por aí.
Desejo à voce um feliz Ano Novo com muitas boas viagens! Abraço
Amazing scenery I'm really enjoying this trip. Happy New Year.
Very interesting. Is this on my bucket list? We’ll have to see.
Wait for the last episodes of the series 😍😍😍😍
Well, we just returned from buying our winter clothing for our March trip to Iceland. Then I come home and watch this episode and you discussing the cold weather. Brrr. Do you have electrically heated vests? I am enjoying the "ride-a-long" on your trip. Thank you for another beautiful video.
No I don’t have any heated gear because I usually don’t ride below freezing (only if it can’t be avoided) and my normal gear and underwear is sufficient for all temperatures to 0 degrees Celsius. But actually always wanted to try heated gear and riding in more extreme weather.
At 10:30 ❤
Günaydın olsun 👏👏👏👏👏🇹🇷🏍🧿🧿
❤
Wow, Iceland is so beautiful. What time of year did you visit? I’d like to ride through Iceland as well. But not a huge fan of too much cold.
Visited in August!
💗🤗💗
appy appy new years dear!!
✌😘
Che paesaggi meravigliosi😊
... ci fai conoscere anche il tuo compagno? Solo due parole: come si chiama....che moto ha😊
Auguri per il nuovo anno😊😊
💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘💘
Sehr schöne Bilder. Danke. Nimm dir für gewisse Sachen etwas mehr Zeit. Die Aufnahmen mit der Drohne machen mich neidisch. Aber ich werde mir keine Drohne zulegen. Für mich ist das nicht Fotografie. Aber du machst das toll.
