    yay! finally a stop somewhere I have been multiple times! I never really found it to be overly touristy... I'm from Niagara Falls originally - now thats touristy! the Flagler College and City Hall buildings are some of the great highlights of the city for me. even more amazing at night with the seasonal lights. love the beach at the state park... really soft sand as I recall. I'm in Cancun now and ya its very odd experiencing Christmas here. I;m used to snow and cold, though not missing it one bit.

Do y’all remember the brackets or however y’all had them mounted under the bed?

Since I've just started watching, I don't know if you've ever made it to Blue Springs State Park. This time of year the Manatee love to go into the springs for the warmer water. It's really worth the time to check it out if you have the time. Enjoy your time together and I'll just catch up on some of your older videos.

    As usual, great video. How do you transport your Ebikes, since usually you have your motorcycle on the back of your RV? How do you like the Lectric brand ebikes? We have a similar RV and we’re thinking about folding ebikes.

    • @EatSeeRV
      @EatSeeRV  2 года назад +1

      These actually fold! If you have space for a rack on the back however that's the best option. They are heavier. And with limited bay space idk that they would fit in the bay folded or not. - Liz

    • @EatSeeRV
      @EatSeeRV  2 года назад +1

      I've seen folks fold them and place them in large storage tubs.
      You would still need 2 people to get it through the RV door. But the tub handles should take a bit of the awkwardness out of it.
      This will most likely be the way we do it, just haven't tried it yet.
      Overall I really like the Lectric bikes. They are the lightest and most feature packed for the price point.
      Stay tuned there will be more content to come with the Lectric bikes. - Dennis

    Truthfully I was sad to see this travel vlog. St. Augustine used to only get tourists in the early to mid summer , then in the eighties a bunch of American retirees emigrated from their own states. Now I see the city is promoting winter tourism as well. Nothing wrong with your video, and of course you love it. It seems everyone just decides to stay once they get there. I haven't lived in my hometown for many years and that is why. Oh, and investigate Minorcans in St. Augustine next time you're there. I'll subscribe to your channel because you appear to be such a lovely person.
