YouTube Video Descriptionโ†“

https://www.retirementtravelers.com This is our retirement! Our next early retirement travel stop was about overcoming fear of flying and riding seaplanes to and from Isle Royale National Park!! This was our first experience riding on a seaplane. Houghton, MI was the launching point for this adventure. It is a beautiful town in the Upper Peninsula Michigan, Pure Michigan that is ๐Ÿ˜Š. Our options for travel to the island was a nearly 6-hour boat ride or a 40-minute seaplane ride. Despite Bevโ€™s fear of flying, we chose seaplanes vs. boats because of the much shorter trip. We used Isle Royale Seaplanes for our trip to the park and they were a very professional business and did a fantastic job. The pilots were very friendly and made us feel quite comfortable. They really helped Bev with how to overcome the fear of flying.

But, that is what we did! We work hard every day to become better and create something that others will enjoy. Having a community of friends, old and new, follow our journey is fun and exciting to us. In 2019, we achieved our goal of visiting every state in the union in our Airstream. We also visited every national park in the lower 48. We are big believers in lists, so of course we plan to see the remaining 12 parks in the next few years. In 2021, we made the big decision to extreme downsize to just a suitcase and a small backpack, each. We started our journey around the world beginning in Central America. We hope that over the next ten years, we will have seen many beautiful things, made many memories and new friends, and shared the experience with our children and grandchildren. We hope you enjoy the journey with us. Drop us a note in the comments and be sure to hit subscribe! ๐Ÿ—บ ๐ŸŽฅ ๐ŸŒฎ
