I have to admit Mr. Robert. I am addicted to your vids. I live in Jensen Beach, and I really liked your commentary. I should ask that if you return to Jensen. You should try "Shuckers" on Hutchison Island. Great food, reasonable prices, and the most perfect view of the Ocean.
Made our first trip to the keys 3 weeks ago. Thanks to your videos we had a better idea where to go and what to expect. Thanks so much cant wait to go back again.
I Loved this video; maybe your best keys vid yet! Sunset cruises rule. Congrats on the new sponsor. Happy travels!
+1970boobear Thank you!
Thank you for this awesome video! I feel like I've made a return trip to the Keys . I just adore the Keys!
Okay Robert, I'm hooked on your videos! Your videos are very gorgeous, and your accent is soothing, like an old friend. Gracias mi amigo!
Gracias a ti
As a friend from Ohio who has been to Key West several times, I found this video to be your most relaxing one. I watch this video from time to time to help me remember and look forward to my next trip there. It's always a pleasure to enjoy your videos. Well done and thank you again.
You do a great job with your videos, we especially love the ones of Key West.
+John Martin Thank you!
With the beauty of the scenery and relaxing music it makes your video's so tranquil
Robert,
I've been to Key West numerous times and I must say it's a fun place. Enjoying all your videos and you seem so excited lately and smiling a lot. Good to see!!
Thank you for bringing back so many lovely memories of my RV trips with my late husband John! We had a Silverado truck with 5th-wheel and Coachman RV. Like you we have been all over the US and of course Key West! Your videos make it oh so real, including the parking and taking care of the RV. Love it and I will follow you on more!
Thanks Robert, another great video and drone shots! Will be in the Keys this spring for the first time. Your videos have helped us navigate where to go!
Thanks again and keep them coming!!
Thanks!
Once I get moved back to Florida and get settled, my first trip will definitely be to the keys
Almost exactly 60 years ago today I was born in Key West Naval Hospital and the rest is, well, history... We have been back multiple times but never camping. We are looking forward to that in the fall.
+Follow us and Live Enjoy going back to Key West. We always have a good time there.
I was born in Key West also...back in 1867.
I love your videos, and your passion for the Florida Keys! My family and I were just there this year ourselves, all the way down to Key West. It was a great trip, but I had not been in the keys since 1993, and was surprised at the changes (Key West is more upscale now and crowded) and saddened by all the damage still there from Irma. Thank you for your videos!
John Banas
I would have loved to have been there long ago before it became so crowded and built up... I can only imagine how cool it must have been there back in the 1950s and 60s.... I would hear stories from the older people.
It must have been a really magical place back then.
But I would have been happy to have been there in1993 and I have never been there yet .
Let's face it most places are great when they are still more or less a best kept secret.
I guess I was kind of naive when I was reading something about the Home Depot there and was surprised that they had one of THOSE in Key West ... definitely not what I pictured .
High quality filming and commentary that has really whetted my appetite for a planned trip in March 2020 when we hope to take in the tennis in Miami. Thank you so much for your efforts. Much appreciated.
Robert we enjoyed your videos on the Key-west sunset cruise. so absolutely beautiful. Thank you for sharing your experience. Wonderful....Caro
Thank you! Glad you liked it.
Why don't we see the two of you eating ?!
The colors in the drone footage is unreal Robert! The side camera is wonderful! Wow! Can't wait to see what you do with the upcoming eclipse! To revisit Mangrove Manor again is cool! Action packed video! The drone is awesome it's like a spacecraft with the interesting views it gives. Two hour open bar! WooHoo! Wonderful... The bike spot is fantastic!! :) The sunset cruise footage is beautiful. Great music! Great fun!!
Yes, it was a fun trip, especially the sunset cruise
Great video. Sounds like your livin the life!!
Thank you again for another outstanding video just can't stop watching your videos it's so relaxing
Hey, thank you. Don't fall asleep on me now :-)
I said relaxing not boring lol never boring thanks
You're awsome Rob!
You are the genuine king of virtual vacation !!!
Haha, thanks! That's a good name for my channel. Virtual vacations.
Maby a new concept here on youtube.
Keep on going Rob !!!
One of the reasons is because he doesn't put his face in every camera shot like a lot of other TH-camrs do ... he actually gives us enough breathing room to see everything we want to look at so we can feel that we are actually there.
Some of the other TH-camrs I feel smother us with their constant presence and all you see is their big face and head in every shot... and some of them will turn around and do a 360 so you can see everything around them but they are in the center of the shot... literally with the world revolving around them.! . too much narcissism on TH-cam ...
that's why I'm so grateful for people like Robert ... I just discovered this channel this afternoon.
I've loved everyone of your videos in regards to the Florida Keys. I have spent a great amount of time in the Florida Keys from Key Largo to Key West and even gone to the Dry Tortugas. And things have really changed nothing stays the same. Bahia Honda State Park holds a beautiful beach.
Thank you... and I am yet to go to Bahia Honda
Robert, even tho you have taken the KW route so many times, i watch every video, i lived there for almost 10 years and miss it everyday, thanks for the constant memories, well done mate!!!
Thank you. I gotta make it down there soon.
@@TravelingRobert u betcha, im moving back to Sebastian Inlet soon, loved that video as well, may even bike from Largo to KW this year..bless up mate
Your videos are getting better and better. Congratulations on the sponsorships and all the sucess, you deserve it.
+Christopher Barleta Thank you so much.
Awesome, that drone adds a whole new dimension to your videos. My family will be in the Keys in one week, first time! Been watching a lot of your vids in preparation.
Thank you. Enjoy the Keys!
Wow such a wonderful video Robert 👍🤗🌴I will have to check out those bikes as they look like fun🚴♀️~ 👍👍👍...Nancy
+Lovethecape CC Thank you so much
Awesome to go to the keys with you again. Your new drone is really awesome. I cannot believe how high it actually flies.
+saverio occhipinti Thank you. Yeah the drone is amazing.
Another wonderful road trip as always! You are the best and you deserve million subscribers!
Thank you to share your adventures with us Robert !
Great video Robert! The background music is getting more diverse too!
+shaker LT1350 Thank you. I'm going to be making more music.
Classic Robertico! Glad to see you with sponsorship. Well deserved for all you do!
Thank you!
Thanks for sharing your videos. Found you by accident tonight and night went on and on watching your videos. Before we call it a night, wanted to let you know about our favorite campgrounds, so far. Big Pine Fishing Lodge and Boyd's at Key West (really Stock Island). Boyd's is as close as you can get to Key West unless you are in the Navy or a vet and get into their campground. Stayed at Boyd's are last two times and Big Pine a few years ago, but it is always full when we go. Big Pine has great people and the Key Deer are an added touch. So far it has only been in a tent as our stays have been too short to bring the 5th wheel down.... but hopefully this winter for our first full winter... IF we can get into a campground... with so many closing to become Condos the rates keep climbing and they seem to get picky on the year of your camper. Our HitchHiker is still in great shape, better than most new ones, but too old.
We've been to Boyd's once, and we liked it a lot. Yes, the Keys continue to be expensive. We're going back in the fall.

Thank you! For the Key West sticker you may have to go there, but the Traveling Robert sticker is available at freeinmyrv.com
Thank you so much Robert for this video. It gives us a new perspective on other available tourist attractions in the lower keys...heading south from Atlantic Canada this February.
Truly enjoyed your nightime ride!
+Adelbert Brideau Hey have a great trip to the Keys
Very nice video👍. So beautiful places, thank you for sharing !
Thank you Barbara
Thanks for watching my dolphins video. Did you see next one with shark?? What kind of shark it is??
I love your florida keys videos. Keep talking about your restaurant suggestions. I'll use it during my next trip there.
Fantastic video! Keep it up!
Thank you!
Good stuff! Thanks for sharing!
Like those videos from the Key's , some day for me too.
+Tim Rainey Yes, the Keys never disappoint...although I think I prefer the high season with crowds and all.
another fine holiday in Key West :) Seems that Florida is the long searched ELDORADO :)
+TheLemminkainen Thank you. It was a fun trip
I love Florida, it's really nice down there.
Yes, very warm!
Howdy Robert,thanks a lot for another marvellous video, on your visit of Key West this time.Wonderful views.I have the National Geographic Traveler about Miami and the Keys here which enables me to follow you closely on your trips in the City and the Keys.By the way,that drone of yours does a splendid job offering great views.Greetings from William in Bruges,Belgium
Sound like the voice of the guy from vice city radio station emotion 98.3
Rio Blanks he sounds identical
Top Notch video! The new drone will add some excellent content to your channel..it already has ;-) Key West is a special place and well captured by your videos and comments. As mentioned before went there in a Toy Hauler in Feb 2017, stayed at the military campground on Trumbo Point. Will definitely make a return trip in the future.
+Robert Causey Yes Key West is very special. Next time I must visit the Dry Tortugas too.
Really good, variation of focus is fantastic. Narration and music is prefessional class Adios - From Bangladesh.
Awesome drink koozie Robert! lol So happy to see you using it! We will be giving some away in the near future!
+RVing Illustrated :-)
You really upped your game with new drone and quality of filming! Was pleasantly surprised to find our Marathon encounter at the end.
Thanks Thomas! Was good to meet you, maybe with more time next time
Thomas Finnerty Yes! Robert, you sure can fly the drone. which drone do you have?
ivr just started getting into the drone hobby; I'm looking at more costly ones after I master my begginer drone from walmart...
Stuart Taylor I just got the DJI Mavic, about a month ago...
love the vlog and the fantastic music welldone robert
Robert , I love following your road travels!
I would recommend a stop on Stock Island for a bite to eat at , Hogfish Bar and Grill! They have a delicious hogfish sandwich that is blackened or fried. You would appreciate the old harbor as well!
Also you pass by Gilbert's Resort in Key Largo , It's the first and largest tiki bar in the Keys! You need to try the cerviche there, it's divine !
Keep you trekking my friend and congratulations on the advertisers, It's good stuff!
Key West Key West great video yet again :) keep it going Robert
+LockonNick Thanks!
Fla keys is in my bucket list, and I had to tell you, the food you cook looks really yummy, I am going to try and cook that spanish dish you guys cooked, it looke so darn good.. Doug
It was good...we were starving too after not being able to park at the restaurant. Thank you always.

Hi Robert great video as always!
Some of the Amazon links in the Description are wrong, just wanna let you know.
Keep up the good work!
Thanks! I fixed the links :-)
that's it I am leaving work early and going to the beach Isle of Palms. Thanks Robert
+Rob Lawhorn :-)
at 15:26 I knew you'd sit on that chair! Ha!! so far great video...
+Eric O Haha, thanks!
Wow that Mavic footage is just B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L
+MWG-Productions Thanks. Still learning.
love the music you play
Thank you!
another top notch vid, thanks Robert!
+Rick P Thank you!
We always stay at Grassy Key RV Resort which is just south of Jolly Rogers! It's only like 30 some odd spots but it's very nice!
Also, I think kayaking to Indian Key is the best way. We put in on the opposite side of the road from where you were. Not a bad trip at all!
Yes, I plan to do that soon.
11.20 :) but also love Islamarada wow great shots of my fav.spot , keep up the great work and keep on frolicking lol
+Eric McKee Thank you. I have to do a long comprehensive video on Islamorada. So much to see there.
Another great video. I get a bit worried about how crowded it would be in the holiday season though? got caught out at yosemite like that so many people it was no fun, went off season the next time, much better.
+Rob Edmunds High season is pretty crowded. Been a couple of times.
DJI Mavic!! Good choice:)
+TAPP Channel Yes, I like it so far
great video Robert wife and I are planning to ride to key west in September also vist my dad in Miami. like to meet up with you then.
Cool. Would love to meet up.
Robert at 33:12 to 33:13 you drive by Cowboy Bills, I believe it is the only true Country Bar in KW, also home to a great mexican restaurant (can not think of it's name) and the bull riding machine in the back. Bill the owner takes care of his customers and some how remembers you when you come back in. He helped me out this past winter when I was limited to what I could eat and drink after just having major oral surgery. Everybody else got mad when I did not buy drinks for my self, only wanted water, he did not. Not the 1st time he helped us out. You know he is there when his truck, the white Ford with the US Flag paint on the front is out front. Noticed it as you drove by it, lol.
Cool. I will go next time
That was AWESOME 👏🏻. ❤
HAHA ! I'm a domican country boy and I love to hear el GALLO (rooster) 6:48 early in the morning. YESSSS !
Kikiriki
:) :)
Where do you get your background music, Robert? It is a nice variety for all your videos.
I make it myself. Thanks!
Robert I love your channel I really think you definitely deserved more subscribers. I believe that if your wife team up with you on this channel you will definitely gain more subscribers. I'm here to stay cuz your channel is awesome.
+Cha Yang Thank you so much...I'm here to stay too.
My father “Pepe” loved that place. Lol.
Another fantastic job Robert. Did you reserved in advance on that boat or did you paid once you got there?
Thank you. I reserved in advance because they tend to sell out sometimes.
is that drone 4k, great lookin vid, tanx.
Yes it is. Thank you!
TH-cam unsubscribed me from your channel for some reason. You should look into that.
Robert, did you produced the theme song remix at around 10:00 ? Sounds great!
Yes I did
@@TravelingRobert awesome, it fits the video perfectly.
Hey Robert, do you hear the music in your head whilst filming, then later add it in the editing. We just realized, we took the music for granted.
+clayton comeaux Sometimes I do, sometimes I think of the music after.
One question... Why must you guard your whistle at key west? 😇
Greatest voice since Ricardo Montalban.
gostei do passeio!!!
Obrigado
Why don't we see the two of you eating
Why you don't fly both drones?
At the same time? Actually I gave away the old drone to a friend
Hi turistas, Sunset Key islland is officially called Tank Island on nautical charts. It had two large oil tanks for refueling Navy ships until they gave it to the city for a park. Which did not happen. The cottage business is owned by Mike Walsh's Opal company, whose ship dock gets much profit from giant cruise ships of 3,000 passengers. The locals do NOT like massive ships docking in KW which flood Duval Street with day trippers who patronize tee shirt shops, jewelry stores, expensive cosmetic ripoff scams and there are so many of them they block traffic and do not obey the Do Not Walk traffic signals. Key Westers voted to limit the size of cruise ships but Mr Walsh paid a million dollars into Florida Governor DeSantis political fund to get him to approve a law that would overturn the citizens right to vote to control bad things happening to their cities!! Although he owns four hotels in KW and a cruise ship dock, he is bad neighbor and hurts the place that is earning his income. He punishes the lifestyles of the locals for his own profit motives.
Do us a favor and stay somewhere else and teach him that his bad behavior will cost him some money ;=] Maybe then he will listen to us when we say "Get some smaller cruise ships and help the reef survive."
P.s. It is not worth $700 a night, free sunsets and good chow is available anywhere else in KW ;=}
👍
Oop's posted on the wrong vid. Sorry. Hope you read it anyway...... LOL
Can u do the add in the beginning or ending, I understand this makes u money but in the middle kinda kills the mood
I almost hate to be the one to say it,but that ''weird'' cloud was a chemtrail...perfect example.
sorry but, we, as canadian citizens, we have to stop Florida trips until the next usa elections
Count on 8 years, 16 if Ivanka gets to be the first female US Prez. Take off, Hoser.
LMAOOOOO at that....estas Loco...
i didn't know that having a pocket full of duck quarters can make one so arrogant.
Please don't mind these idiots, not all Americans are as obnoxious as these people. Thankfully, by 2020 it'll be over.
