Cross-Country Road Trip 2024 Kickoff! Orlando to Destin: Hotel, Beach, Dinner & Our Plans
Вставка
- Опубліковано 3 жов 2024
- It’s the first day of our brand new cross country road trip adventure, and we’re bringing you along for the whole thing! We’re driving from Florida to California, and seeing so many sites along the way! On day one, we head out from our home of Orlando, Florida, and head to the beach town of Destin, in the Florida panhandle. We cross out first time zone change, check in and show you our hotel room (with some weirdness), and head down to the beach to enjoy the soft white sand, dinner at the iconic restaurant, The Back Porch, and sunset views! I also talk a bit about this trip, what you can expect (something different every vlog), and the planning process (aka the spreadsheet lol!). Thank you for the love and support as we stretch our road trip legs and head out on the very first leg of this massive cross-country adventure! See you soon with the next vlog!

I love watching you and Sam’s adventures! Have a fun and safe trip.
It was funny that Sam was going to go into the water and you stopped him by yelling, "don't do it." It is crazy how the sand does affect you when it's so windy.
Love it! I live in the destin area. Yes! that fine sand on a windy day can be brutal!!! 🌬️
Road trip YES love the road trips

That beach was beautiful
Safe travels. My wife and i road trip from Ohio to Florida a couple times a year. I like to take different routes and explore different areas on our way down. My bucket list includes a road trip from coast to coast. Starting with the feet in the Atlantic and ending with my toes in the Pacific. I love road tripping. Hope you have a great trip. Safe Travels!
so excited for this! we’ve always wanted to do this from NJ to CA but never take the time. have a safe and fabulous trip 🎉
Love the Chris Rea 'On the Beach' vibe to your video Jackie. Look forward to the rest of your trip.
Day one down and so far its been great!!! so anticipating the videos.... loving this thanks for the ride along... just be safe guys ...
Nice! That windy beach experience reminds me of our beach here in Cambria…can get super windy like that. Enjoy your trip.
Happy & safe trails! 😇
Oh my gosh, I live right there at the base of the mid-bay bridge…… whaaaaat you are at my house and I didn’t know it!

Love your road trip vlogs! ❤
Excited for this series, how fun! We were driving up I 75 yesterday heading home from Crystal River, FL for our spring break and it was SO windy trying to drive! Enjoy your trip! Can't wait to ride along with you guys!
I love the road trip idea! I hope to do some of my own road trips one day!
My three trips to Florida have never gone beyond Orlando and the theme parks, mainly Universal. However your videos have definitely made me interested in exploring the rest of the state, especially the Keys and Destin. Can’t wait to see the rest of this cross country road trip!
Looking forward watching your trip cross country. Enjoy yourself. Can’t wait to see the country thru your videos. You & Sam have a great time.
Have fun! ❤
So excited for this vlog series, love a good road trip! Safe travels Jackie and Sam!!
That sand looked like snow
Wonderful vlog. Have fun on your trip!
Can’t wait for these videos. Plus I love going Destin Beach. Going back in two weeks
I love that you have done this kind of travel. I would love if we could do that with our dog sometime. At least some part of the travel. I must admit there is something exhilarating about taking a road trip.
So many more places were dog friendly than I expected!! But yea, not everywhere so it would take some extra planning, but can def be done. It really is exhilarating, and the memories you carry with you forever!
Destin! Nice, only an hour away for me. Great little town. McGuires is an amazing restaurant in Destin.
It is so windy and hold on to your hats today and so cold weather do you feel it this year and got the beach nice awesome view and a great balcony to see your best day so far this is Jenna Dabao at the beach ⛱️🏖️ this year enjoying your stay this month had fun stay hydrated this week have super excited fun Florida day
Cannot wait to see this journey!! Great to see you both!!
Watching from a wet Ireland, there is no end to the bad weather here, sooo jealous lol
Yay!! I love road trips! I'm a frequent road tripper my self!! Been to 34 states to see the same country artist so that's a lot of driving haha! Can't wait to follow along!
Safe travels, you guys just stopped where i used to live in Texas i know its a long one but to drive from Disneyworld to Disneyland is a accomplishment in itself and I cannot be more (Enthused) for your trip cross country ❤
Have a great trip. This looks so fun. Have never been to the Florida Panhandle.
I visited Florida many years ago and your videos bring back just how beautiful Florida is thank you for taking us with you
Last summer we took a cross country trip from Indiana to Oregon. We had such a blast! Definitely need to plan way in advance, but like you said, keep it open to adventure!
I love your road trips and my fingers are crossed you are spending a couple days in New Orleans and the French Quarter 😊
Another great video!
The Pan Handle is a beautiful place. We have a condo in PCB and hopefully one day we can be there full time. You get used to the wind, it dies down as the Summer comes on. Nothing like it anywhere! Excited to travel with you!
Yesss! SO So cool you guys are doing this ! Stay safe out there ! I’m so excited for this series ! Can’t wait to see the next videos ! Praying and wishing you guys have the best time (weather, fun, safe travel,etc) 🫶🏼🚗💨
Love this it's natural beautiful calming. Always have a plan but nothing set in stone. Emotions weather pop ups come into play. ❤❤❤❤
Driving through Texas this weekend, I hope you stop to enjoy the eclipse. It’s a must see event.
We did!!! Hope u enjoyed it and also got to see my vid of it, we had the most amazing day!!!!
Love all your videos!!, safe travels😊😊💜
