Sailed there from Marathon 5 yrs ago for 7 days...
Loved Every Minute!
Thanks for the Memories!
I'm sick and staying home from church, where I'm usually leading the singing but have lost my voice. Thanks for posting such fun videos to watch. I almost feel like I've traveled to the places too.
+Marcia Watts Glad you liked it. Thank you
Love Dry tortugas
I took a sea plane there and loved it uncle Robert. The rangers that live there are tough characters for sure.
Hot little island
There is a waiting list for the rangers that want to live there and when hurricanes hit, all the key rangers and families go there for safety. The rangers that live there love it and supplies come on Tuesday. They have internet, electric and everything must be brought in. No fresh water and whatever you carry in-carry out.
Rangers enjoy evening bon fires and cook outs with the 2-3 ranger families that live there . There was a older ranger and his wife that had lived there for years, not sure if he retired.
There are several private island dwellers in that area that have wood structures and use generators. There is a large cable that runs from Key West on the ocean floor that provides internet, electric and so on.
Great video Uncle Robert!
Yes, it was a great day trip
We even got to see the mystery wife
What an amazing experience ❤
LOL WE JUST RELOCATED TO KEY WEST 11.11.17 & I WAS TELLING MY HUSBAND ABOUT THIS PLACE. ON THE ATLANTIC OCEAN LOOKING AT A SMILEY FACE MOON....WATCHING YOUR VIDS. THANK YOU SO MUCH AND GOD BLESS YOU. GREAT INFO AS ALWAYS AND DELIVERED IN AN EXCELLENT MANNER. SAW LITTLE HAVANA AND SOME OF THE PLACES SHOWN IN YOUR WALK. FOUND IT ACCIDENTALLY. BIG SMILES TO YOU AND YOUR WIFE - OUR FRIENDS. GOD BLESS YALL.
Great Narration & Dry Tortugas has been on my bucket list a long time as well
we love our trip to dry tortugas last month! that was an amazing experience! tfs!
Wow, este no lo habia visto, thank Robert,
You're welcome, lo acabo de subir esta mañana
Bucket list for my daughter too I think!
Great video Robert again, always love the visits to Key West. Have you ever been on the Ghost tour in Key West? It's a fascinating tour of Key West and a good laugh. The visit to the Fort East Martello Museum was unmissable, very spooky. The glass bottom boat tour is also really good.
Haven't done the ghost tour yet. I did a glass bottom at John Pennekamp in Key Largo that was fabulous.
Exceptional video, as always. TY. 👍
Thank you
Ditto all the other complimentary comments here, Robert. Your videos are fun to watch.
+gmaneis Thank you so much
These videos are brilliant.. Thank you
You're welcome
Hello Traveling Robert😊😊🎸🎸🎵🎵, I just reviewed your Dry Tortugas video as I soon will be driving from Rhode Island to Key West to take in this bucket list destination, the Dry Tortugas National Park. I can't wait to check it all out.
Hello Robert 👋, new to your channel. Just subscribe and looking forward to seeing more videos. Going to Sunshine key resort in April. The family and I are got to the dry Tortuga's on the 3rd of April. Looks so peaceful. Keep the videos coming.
I live and boat in Marathon, right down US 1, and I've never made it to Fort Jefferson. Some day I will, but today I'm going to take out my kayak and check my crab traps.
Hope you made OK after the storm. Enjoy your crab :-)
Hi Robert,thanks a lot for sharing yet another quite entertaining video.Looking forward now to your longer version of course here. Congrats and greetings from William in Bruges,Belgium
Yes, the longer video also includes Key West. Thank you
We were there in May. We stayed in Marathon at the Sea Dell Motel. Even Dramamine did not help all the people on the way back. Glad you had a nice trip.
Thanks!
Yes, please upload the longer version! Love traveling, vicariously, with you!
Yes, tomorrow morning, it will include our time in Key West as well.
Went to Dry Tortugas 35 years ago 2 times. Before anybody could go there except by private or chartered craft. You could fish and cook your catch from the dock.
Good one Robert.
Thank you!
Wow. That moat wall has taken a beating over the years! I've been out there 3 times by plane but have never seen part of it subside under the waves. Was always able to walk it all the way around. They'll have to shore it up at some point to protect the fort.
Can't walk all the way around anymore
Wow. One of your best. And how awesome to see u & your bewutiful wife looking so happy & relaxed! Ps. If u can make it to Red Coconut 4 a weekend in Oct. 2018 let us know, we'll buy u a beverage or 2! Happy travels 😎
Thank you so much. I'll save the date :-)
Beautiful video!
Thank you
Great video!!!!
Interesting place.Good video.
:-)
awesome vid! I would love to camp there!
Thank you, me too
GOOOOOOOOOD MORNING Mr Robert !
Goooood morning to you!
Thanks for the video. Always wanted to go here.
You're welcome
Now that was a beachcraft airplane. I went one time in 2000, not as rough but bad enough. I put my head down where there is seating at a table. When I awoke and all was calm. one of the crew had placed a barf bag in front of me. Made me laugh, the sleep got me through it. It was calm and we had a great snorkel by the wall. That is what we did mostly. Going back was calmer and fine. I wish I could fly a seaplane there from Titusville, or drive out there in a camper. Imagine that. When I lived in Maryland, the lady neighbor across the street was Dr. Mudd's granddaughter. I think he turned out to be a hero out there helping with yellow fever.
Great trip. Its on my bucket list too but everytime I’m around in a summer the weather is too bad for that trip.
+TAPP Channel Yes, our summers are hit or miss. Weather wasn't so great for this trip either. A little too windy. Even I they allowed drone flying it might have ended up in Cuba.
Traveling Robert I’m watching with my wife now your video from your trip to keys right after Hurricane Irma. Terrible damage out there...
Thank you so much for sharing your must do, bucket list attraction. It's not on my bucket list, so I'm glad you filmed it. (Great music too.) Ted & Lee Ann
Thank you! Glad you liked it.
So cool
Be going there in two weeks!!!
Enjoy. 🇵🇷
I have found some of the best beaches to be at Ft Zachary in Key West. Well maintained and clean with snorkeling very near. Not many people take advantage of the parks beach area.
We saw that beach. Definitely looks like the best beach in KW. I will show it in tomorrow's extended version of this
love the videos.....keep up the good work. We have been following for couple years on my other chanel
Thank you!
West just got back from the keys last week, you should check out out vlog. Going to Moab with our camper next week, hope to get some good video out there. You came throught Black Hawk Co....Thats were I work...How was the cross country trip?
Great video, Robert! At 12:50, the "Pterodactyl-looking bird" is called a Magnificent Frigatebird (yes, that's really its name!). They are incredible birds, staying aloft for months at a time, eating and even sleeping on the wing, at times flying up to 12,000 feet high. You got a nice close look!
Thanks for another excellent video.
Cool. Thank you for the info on that bird. I had no idea
He ido 2 veces a key west pero para ir a dry tortugas hay que ir con tiempo
I believe store purchased bread is still made from those ingredients.
Probably
I would like to see a video call Key's bar crawl. Video bar stops from Key Largo to Key West, you know the best bar's and restaurants.
What a great idea... I might have to do it during several days, otherwise I won't make it past Key Largo
One of your best videos, how much did that ferry cost for the day?
The ferry is currently running a special for $99 and that includes admission to the park. I believe normally it is $175, so we got a good deal.
Hola Robert Cuanto cuesta el ferry ?
Have wanted to visit the fort for a long time, how much does the ferry charge and is admission to the park included.
The ferry is currently running a special for $99 and that includes admission to the park. I believe normally it is $175, so we got a good deal.
Excellent
How long do you stay in Fort Jefferson between arrival and departure.
It is about 4 and a half hours.
Quick question...I'll be heading down to Florida for the holidays and my name is also Robert....Does that mean I'm Travelling Robert Too?
Yeah, sure, why not
Mine only has one "L" so no problem :-)
Just kidding...there's only one Traveling Robert and he can sing....so that can't be me :-)
Would you ever consider tent camping at this park?
I've been thinking about it. I've heard the stars at night are amazing
Roy Vannoy in July and August it is extremely hot. No fresh water there. It’s bare conditions but so neat. Staying all night would be creepy but cool
Did you have to pay a fee for recording?
No, I didn't ask either
Traveling Robert wise move, one final question did you have to make reservations to get on the boat or is a first come, first served basis?
Reservations are recommended so I reserved online.
Interesting...and I can say, "Swim Robert Swim..." as you did your snorkeling which you claim was not the best....ah well, "Swim Robert Swim"--ha!!
Everybody says it is a great snorkeling site. I must have been doing it wrong.
I discovered the joys of Fire Coral there. A pleasure you never forget.
Hate to break the news to you the EARTH is flat.......
+martin dzon So I've heard lol
