You are correct! Nana has all the fun things 🎉 She makes it really hard to say goodbye ❤ The kids always say they want to live with Nana when they grow up.
Nana’s house looked like a darn good time! I wish every kid could experience driving a golf cart and a riding lawn mower. So fun! Good luck with that trailer 🙏🏻
This vlog is so wholesome. It’s feels like summertime early 2000s vibes on the farm. You two are doing such an amazing job raising your beautiful children. Peace from New Zealand
This is really a big adventure, specially for the kids. Will be a good childhood memories for the kids. So much planning and work and of course family fun! Kelly and Jonathan, you are one exemplary parents. 🎉
Obviously, I’ve been following you guys for abit and seen your Singapore vlogs but I’m still so stocked to see “Singapore” on your trailer! Proud Singaporean represent 🫡🇸🇬
35:45 Hey there! Just a thought - having a truck stop for refuelling, a reverse camera for the trailer, and a power bank converter for the cab would be super helpful!
yes reverse cams mounted with screens in the front, multi cam system integrated with dashboard if u wana be extra. more fasteners on the floor board to hold stuff down, removable nets or hooks on walls to store stuff, rechargeable wall mounted touch led lamps that u can use remove and change positions keep a gas can in the trailer with fuel just in case
Hi, I'm loving this series on your trip to Akaska, looks like you all had a fantastic time at your Mum's. Kids were having a ball! Loving the trailer, it's huge!! I'm from Scotland so our cars and trailers are nowhere near that scale! Have a fantastic trip, what amazing adventures and experiences you have given and continue to give to your children, they're fantastic kids. Take care....
John keeps giving us surprises! Wowzer on that gorgeous trailer! Huge congrats 🎉So happy to see the kids having great time at nana's beautiful house. Amazing Amazing Amazing! On the road again! Safe travels 🤘
We are just as surprised as you 😂 That trailer is huge! Now we just have to learn how to drive it 😳 I’ll let Jonathan figure out all the quirks before I give it a try.
So exciting! We have a 24 ft travel trailer, been camping for years! What really helped my husband is putting in a backup camera. Game changer! Some people put in side cameras as well. Also putting in tie-down D rings on your trailer floor board inside can help with strapping down your toys with quality rachet straps.
Great suggestions 🎉 We need a back up camera for sure on the trailer. We have some D rings and straps, but we used them all up already and need to get more. I’m thinking we need hooks for hanging things, too. Have you done that? Added hooks to hang things and maybe a top shelf to get things off the floor?
@@Kelly.BagsPackedFamily yes on hooks, just be sure to secure them while traveling. Shelf needs to be like a box style so things don’t fall out. There’s a lot of rattling around while in transit.
I think you two rock as parents! I'm so excited for your journey! I have been waiting for new videos so I'm happy there was a new one🎉 at Nana's house. I absolutely love every video you have shared with i..so thank you ❤ i can't wait to see what happens next! Love you guys ❤️
Hi from England. Your truck is beautiful and the trailer has so many possibilities like you say. I am enjoying all your videos and loving see your adventures x
My husband uses trailer load bars (like found at truck stops) crosswise in the trailer to secure stuff. He used to drive semis so that’s where the idea came from.
nana’s land looks so much fun. so excited about that you guys are dabbing into overlanding. truck looks cool Jonathon will be a pro driving that trailer around
wow congrats on the add on to the truck ❤️! seeing you guys and with family again is such a happy moment!! definitely a learning curve driving with a trailer in the back😮😮!
I'm so excited about the trailer's future, maybe filled like a campervan set up? It'll be awesome ❤ and I can't wait to see the tent and bedding set up in the truck! Good luck guys
I would epoxy coat that trailer floor. It will last much longer. Also a rug or something to bridge that gap between the rear door and the trailer floor helps a ton!
Nannas house is the place to rest through your journey! Hugs, food and lots of fun. I'm a nanna to a six year old girl named Alice and I know how it would have felt for your mum Kelly. ❤ The trailer looks fabulous! 🥰 Please take it easy and stay safe on you're amazing journey. As a viewer your style of vlogging is very enjoyable to watch. ❤
I love your channel and watching your videos! I wanted to tell you a fun fact: my name is Sandy my daughter is Kelly, my son is Jonathan and my granddaughter is Cedar!!! How cool is that 😊 Can’t wait continue on your trip to Alaska with you guys!!!
Gracie looks so cute riding around in the golf cart! I LOVE how excited she was to see the kids ❤❤ Kelly’s mums house and the experiences you had while staying there looks exactly how I imagine the USA to be. Would love to experience that one day! Love cedars squishmallow, my daughter is obsessed with them! We have a whole house full. USA petrol (gas) stations are huge, there is no way you would be able to do that In Australia! So impressed! The memories you are making for Granite, Cedar and Forest are so special and I love that for them!
Thank you for all your support and kind words. Cedar and her squishmallows 💕 Gracie is the princess at Nana’s house. To fill up on gas, we will have to plan carefully, it seems like truck stop and towns with lots of RVs have to best set up for this kind of thing. We did buy an extra gas container, just in case.
Wow! I also lived in Illinois as a child. I will be praying for y'all on this long 8000 mile journey! (as I have been already). Pulling a long trailer can not be easy I bet. Enjoying your videos so much! Praying for SAFE travels and fun times! Oh, did Kelly get her driver's license renewed?
@@Kelly.BagsPackedFamily No to Alaska. I meant praying for y'all. If I was still young and not battling breast cancer I might consider Alaska in the summer time. I think it is beautiful and I have always been in awe of its beauty but I love WARM weather. I just see it thru your You Tube channel. I watch a few other you tubbers from Alaska too!
I have a tailgate like that on my Silverado. Beware there are recalls out there due to them randomly dropping. Ours did when we were towing a trailer. And the 2 part tailgate will get damaged if you open it fully with a hitch attached. Theres a way to lock it out. Safe travels!
Hi Kelly it’s like driving our semi truck it’s wide turns and when at a light depending on Wht lane your turning you have to move over in the other lane in order to turn but u will get the hang of it drive safe and please 🙏🏼 be careful a lot of crazy people out there tht will cut you off and think nothing of it we are over the states but home on weekends I wish you guys the best of luck
@@Kelly.BagsPackedFamily on the ramps use paint with non skid. For safety from sliding. For inside just large rubber mats if you are in the future refit it
Proud to see Singapore on your trailer 🇸🇬 ❤🎉 Tq. Hve enjoyable safe rides. U can make a coffee pantry and seatings at front of your trailer in future for easy access. And when parked on trips for picnics, overnights etc. Tcare ❤ frm Sg.
Singapore 🇸🇬 ❤ Now that we can see how big this trailer is, we definitely will need to make plans to add to it. I love your idea of a coffee station ☕️
I want to visit Nana's house. It looks like so much fun! You guys might want to fuel up where the semi's and trailers do. That where the RVer's fuel up. Nice truck and trailer combo.
What a great property!!! Love mom's place.
The best! Thanks 😊
What a timeless education of life these kids are experiencing - I can't help but feel a little envious - but not in a toxic way 🎉
❤❤❤
Agreed on that!❤
Thank you 🎉
@@addicted2me Hello, ...... When you will back to jogja indonesia??? ...

The BEST place to come home to ❤️ The bar is set pretty high for us, when we make our house a home.

Thank you for all the great tips!
Fun in Dr. Nana’s house but driving the big trailer is not fun. Just be safe and really enjoyed the video and looking forward for next😍🥰😘
Day 1 with the trailer was so nerve-wracking 😅 What a steep learning curve.

Wowww that truck is awesome for traveling..❤❤

Great tips! Is the epoxy just painted on?
Awesome adventures and nice trailer. 😊
I wish that I could come to Kelly’s mums house. Looks like the best place to have fun and maybe eat some ribs 😊
We always have the best time at her house 🎉🎉🎉

John love that trailer with your youtube name and country u all travel that is one unique trailer john nice one wow
Thank you! Glad you like it 🙌
For some reasons, I pictured an RV trailer with beds and a kitchen, and fifth wheel on the truck for towing, but I was pleasantly surprised.
I think in time, we're looking to add some bunk beds and a kitchenette. Once in Alaska, the trailer will be our base for adventure!
Wow so big...I'm proud of you bags packed family ..
Thank you!! Miss you 🥰

Thin slices of cucumbers and garden onion, vinegar, sugar, salt and pepper all together in a bowl so good during the summer ❤
Cucumber salad!! 😋 I need this 🥒
So good!
Bears will love your tent 🎪
Oh no!!! Don’t say that, I’m so scared of bears 🐻 😬 🐻
for the first aid kit burn spray, gauze, and ace bandage wraps, tweezers, ice packs, disposable gloves, alcohol wipes, safety pins, adhesive tape
Love these suggestions!!
Nice truck and trailer ❤
The noise is from the springs under the trailer by the tires. It's normal.
Phew! Thanks. :-)
Hey guys have a safe trip . We got a piece of indoor outdoor carpet and used an air mattress , his bless. I be watching you on your adventures

Yay! Thank you!
⛽ Gas will be interesting per gallon 🤔 my guess 20 mile to the gallon just guessing 🙃fun travels guys 🤗
Oh, yes 😬 It has been a shock filling up! Less than 20 mpg.
I have a tailgate like that on my Silverado. Beware there are recalls out there due to them randomly dropping. Ours did when we were towing a trailer. And the 2 part tailgate will get damaged if you open it fully with a hitch attached. Theres a way to lock it out. Safe travels!
Wow! We didn’t know this. We will have to check into the recall. Thank you.
You might have to go strictly to truck stops so you have the footage to clear areas. ❤safe travels
I think you are right 👍 Places where we can pull in/ pull out.
hahaha winter clothes! I can tell you guys are enjoying some 'dryness' and 'coolness'! it's hot in chicago in summer tho. : )
Yes 🙌
Hi Kelly it’s like driving our semi truck it’s wide turns and when at a light depending on Wht lane your turning you have to move over in the other lane in order to turn but u will get the hang of it drive safe and please 🙏🏼 be careful a lot of crazy people out there tht will cut you off and think nothing of it we are over the states but home on weekends I wish you guys the best of luck
Happy travels guys 🎉
Can you keep the cam inside the pickup
It is possible.
Exciting, exciting.
🎉🎉🎉
Id mat the floor and ramp to protect the osb on the
What type of mat would you recommend? I think it would make it last longer.
@@Kelly.BagsPackedFamily on the ramps use paint with non skid. For safety from sliding. For inside just large rubber mats if you are in the future refit it
Great suggestions!!
I was a truck driver you can buy load lock bars to secure your items they stretch across the walls
Hey, thanks for the tip 👍
Love and Prayers on your travels Beautiful Family ❤️😘
Thank you so much!
Excited for many more 🎉
Thanks!! 🎉
