Guys, two little things:
1. It’s a weird time to upload these videos because my travels took place in spring and early summer - and now especially Florida is experiencing devestating hurricanes again. I hope that destruction will not be too bad - and once they got through this that my videos will animate people to travel there again, so tourists spend money in the infrastructure and local businesses like hotels, who always need that even more after nature hit their shores so terrible (as you might know meanwhile I have friends and family in Florida, and this is unfortunately not the first time this is happening. Florida is just very exposed to hurricanes and unfortunately this one will as well not be the last).
Even though this is happening right now I still decided to post the videos, for exactly the reason above (and as well there is so much shit happening right at the moment in the world, that I sometimes get depressed by watching the news, so this is as well an escape for myself from all these other bothering topics…).
2. Unfortunately we experienced quite a lot of spam and scam messages here on the channel recently. I try to get it under control but it’s not always possible. If you got told you won something by an account that has my profile pic but is not my profile please report this - this account here is the only one I have and the only one I send you comments with!
Morgen, Deinen Ansatz verstehe ich gut! Aber vielleicht kannst Du mir erklären, warum die Ammis trotzdem nicht solide bauen, statt mit den Papphäuschen immer wieder komplett neu bauen müssen. Daneben sehe ich auch den ökologischen Nachteil, dass sie Unmengen an natürlichen Rohstoffen sprich Holz verbrauchen!
The best way to avoid world 💩 is to turn off a tv and move all the way to TH-cam and private producers stuff.
Keep going 😁
On a historical note, Jekyll Island was where the US Federal Reserve was established by some wealthy bankers. Too bad you missed Savannah as it a very picturesque city with tons of historic things to visit. Great video as usual. Looking forward to your next video.
I really hope that I can visit savannah another time!
The goy knows…
And that's when we got fuxxed
I live in the Area.
And it’s where they killed the timucuan tribe to establish it timucuan tribe were 6 to 9ft black native tribe giants also the established it on top of a blood sacrifice altar as well where the tribe use to sacrifice babies
Creature From Jekyll Island a good book to read
Lea
I've been to Jekyll Island on every trip to Georgia. My favorite stop is the restaurant at the Yacht Club. They make the finest gigantic Cajun shrimp I have ever eaten on the planet. As a matter of fact, everything they served is fantastic. The scenery there is stunning! Very historic place. Great video Lady!!
Of course you get more Roses and Urns! 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🏆🏆
Ride SAFE and BE safe Lea!
🙌🖖✌🤙👌👏👏👏👏👏👏👍👋🙂
It’s really too bad that I missed out on this restaurant! To be honest, my dinner was actually not that good at all, didn’t even show it in the video! Next time!!!
Savannah is the oldest city in Georgia and its 1st state capital. Been there multiple times and its beautiful. I'm sorry the weather didn't cooperate. Safe travels!
Hopefully next time!!!
Awesome quality videography and photography
No matter what happens your adventures are worth it. Enjoy your video and narration of travel. Be safe.
Thank you so much!
It is too bad that you were not able to stop in Savannah. It really is a nice place with history. We stayed in a B&B there for a couple of days then went on to Charleston. Loving your trip.
You might recognize some of the places of the next episode then - instead of savannah I went to Charlestoon because the sun was shining there 🙏🏻
Stunning scenery and wonderful photography. ! Thank you Lea for this enjoyable trip !
Thank you!
I’ve been there nearly every year since 2012 and it’s changed a lot since
Well done Lea! Loved this video of coastal Georgia. Great filming and as always I like the music you use. Loved that song @14.30 in the video. Not sure who the artist is?
Hope to see you one day riding in New Zealand.
Respect from Kazakhstan!
Very interesting.
Thank you and hello to Kazakhstan!
Absolutely top-shelf presentation. Subject, scenes, narrative, EDITING and the storyline all flow together in a very posh production. A great experience for the viewer. So inspiring, that I want to go to these places! Cheers.
Thank you so much!
I typed in a lot of comments but wasn’t ready with it when the video stopped. And of course I couldn’t sent them then.
I’ll try again from memory.
Beautiful drone footage
Driftwood beach is a must for photographers. I would be quite busy there.
Nice that they have normal roads and not those ridiculously wide roads.
I know about rain creeping in. Büse gear normally keeps me very dry but when it keeps pouring down, there’s one place where the water comes in. It’s always at the seams between your legs when a little pool of water is created on the saddle.
Love those bearded trees (mosses).
I guess that means that the video was too shorty! 😂
I love the expression “bearded trees” - if I will ever visit Georgia again I will use that in my future videos!
@@Got2Go you’re the one who decides the length of each scene. I would have put a few scenes more of the trees in this film; 10-15 seconds more. But that’s me as a photographer making a movie. I think in stills or slowly moving scenes.
You are a filmer and that’s a different and more dynamic kind of thinking.
I don’t often make a movie; too much work. I make slideshows where pictures can slightly and slowly move. Only with music and no narration.
I don’t know what time of the year you planned your trip, but you called it right with the weather! So many hurricanes hit that part of the country.
Yes it’s devestating with the hurricanes now! As Toto said, the journey was in spring. 😊🤗
Jekyll Island is beautiful. Like ever, top presentation in these video.
Thank you!
Beautiful and interesting episode as always, Lea. I think you meant to say non Americans should "Have Georgia on their minds" as the famous son of Georgia sang 😊. Thanks for sharing your journey. Sadly some of your adventures might not look the same for those who follow, with all the destructive weather events. Safe riding.
Yes I know, it’s terrible - especially Florida is just so exposed to the hurricanes and the ocean. I decided to still post the videos now because I always hope when it’s over again, that people still want to travel there and with spending money as tourists as well support the infrastructure at these places!
Hallo Guten Tag 👋 Lea Ich hoffe, dass du trotz des Regens die Reise genossen hast. Beste Grüße tschuss
A really very well done, beautiful, interesting, informative motorcycle travel video, thanks a lot and keep it up🙏 🙋 🍀 ☺️!
Thank you so much!
Once you left Jekyll island, Mr Hyde decided to rain on you….🤣😘 Georgia is a beautiful state.
That’s exactly how it was! Was waiting for me Hyde already on jekyll, but he only visited after 😂
That was an absolutely beautiful, watching this splendid adventure of your Georgia ,as usual, wonderful cinematic photography, really breathtaking scenes,great work . best wishes Lea😍
Thank you so much, happy you liked it!
Beautiful views and scenery! My bucket list just keeps growing with every video from you. I love it. Ride safe!
Thank you so much!
Yes , Georgia is beautiful! You missed beautiful amazing Savannah ( I understand why) driftwood beach is sooo cool … I visited coastal Georgia last year…. It’s beautiful… happy traveling 👌👌🤘💪
Excellent! Definitely adding Jekyll Island to the to-do list. Georgia is a quite wonderful place! Can't wait to see where you go in South Carolina! Be well!
Thank you so much! To me Georgia really is a little hidden gem!
Lea, poor girl, riding in such f****** rain. It maybe gives you a little consolatory to hear that i had such rain too, but only few days, on my France tour. I´ve never been to Georgia even so your video gives me a feeling about this State. Thank u for this. 🙂
Fab! Shame about the rain....never fun on a bike. Looking forward to next week😀👍
But then it always happens at one point! Rain 🙄🙄🙄
@@Got2Go Yes indeed. I live in Scotland....rains (it seems) most of the time. However, this year has been the best since 1976!!😂. Mind you, I shouldn't complain....we don't have such devastation that Florida is experiencing just now😯😯😪😪
9:46 .... true ... Extra unique
Thank you!
Damn, those drone shots are so amazing
Awesome, spectacular and amazing 🎉
Thank you Sam!
Thanks for the lovely vlog, thanks once again for including the Arabic language subtitles
It was a fantastic journey with you 👍👍enjoyed it fully 🤩😍👌👌 fantastic coastal area 😀
Thank you!
have fun in south carolina, my home state. ride safe
Oh very nice! I am curious how you will like the next episode then!
Awesome video, totally enjoyed this as always,you make the best videos ever, thank you 😊
Oh, I'm sorry you missed Savannah. It's a very charming city; my son lives there and loves it. Maybe next time...
Love your journey. I live in Florida and you have given my places to check out.
Love this ❤️💯, stay safe girl👍 How was the water , was it cold ?
It was actually ok! It was as well warmer outside than it looked!
Sie haben verschiedene Talente. Eine davon ist die Auswahl der schönsten Orte auf Ihren Reisen. Kombiniert mit Ihren Kommentaren faszinieren sie jeden. Vielen Dank.
Vielen Dank! 😊
looks like a nice ride to the islands, and you got to swim in the ocean too.
I love your videos Lea!
Just bought your book 😎😎Looking so much forward to reading it! Love your videos😊😊
The swamp is great also if you get a chance to visit
Beautiful video again! Thanks for showing all these great places on the US eastern coast.
Thanks for joining the ride! 😊
WOW, definitely you make magic with those camera lenses, What a nice video ok waiting for next 👏💐.
Thank you so much!
I know people living up north who insist that as long as water is falling vertically, it's not really rain. Rain comes horizontally for them.
…Well, okay: You made your own wind. 🤷♂🤔
…I mean, I don't mean you, I mean the bike made your wind.
Driftwood Beach is genuinely interesting, a very goth looking place in a very non-gothic landscape! 🤗
Beautiful shots again!
So it’s the bikes fault that I got wet feet!!! 😂
@@Got2Go Deffo!!1! ☺
Love your videos!
Me gusto mucho este video!!hermosos lugares y a veces hay que pasar por lugares no tan bonitos para llegar a ellos.Saludos.
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Thank you Got2Go !!!😀
Fabulous video YET again. Without a doubt your videos are the very best of any motorcycle vlogger xx
Thank you so much!
Great video!
Happy to see the video ...to see beautiful views, not spoiled by natures destruction. At the moment its just destruction and sad views. Nice to see your video, it will look like that again...hopefully soon
I really hope so too!
Σας ευχαριστώ για τις υπέροχες εικόνες που μας χαρίζεται
Είστε υπέροχη
Mesmerizing 🌟
Thanks!
beautiful as always..thanks lea
Thank you for watching!
Beautiful beach,just like you Lea, thanks,,ent your 💓 motorcycle
Thank you!
We just went to Jekyll island yesterday. It was so pretty I wanted to watch some videos on it. You did a great job capturing its beauty. What an adventurer you are. We followed your channel! ❤
👍👍👍
Thank you!
❤️❤️❤️
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Amazing ...your are so strong!
Thanks
Really enjoying your coastal ride as I have visited many of the same places. One of my favorites is Kill Devil Hills, the birthplace of flight. Surely Got2Go didn't pass that by. Safe travels, Nose2wind. 🙂
You will see in one of the next episodes! Might have visited there too 🤫
Your video is very nice. And good poetry. I wish you all the best.
Thank you so much!
متابع من العراق السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته كل التوفيق أن شاء الله 🇮🇶🇮🇶🇮🇶🇮🇶🇮🇶🇮🇶👍❤👍❤👍❤👍❤
Thank you!
Hi Lea Welcome…..👏👋👍🏻👏👋👍🏻
Thank you
Glad you got to see the coast when you did. It's pretty f'ed up in places due to the storm. Some worse than others and still continuing. Nice vid, enjoyable. Safe travels.
Yes it’s terrrible, I hope it will pass quick
And not leave too much devestation. Florida and these coastal places are just in such a high risk when it comes to hurricanes and the ocean…
@@Got2Go Yes it has come up to the mountains where I live on the Kentucky/Virginia border and it has stalled out. Rain next couple days. The interior of South Carolina and North Carolina is getting a soaking. It crossed Florida and hit the Atlantic and turned into a cat. 1 hurricane again. It hit Savana and Charleston pretty hard. It's that time of year, to be expected. You take care. Get us another good ride in for winter viewing. Now I will do the changing leaves on the Blue Ridge and surrounding areas.
Nice 💞
Thanks 👍💞
Have a nice day
Thank you!
worth watching in 1440p
Super Akka 😇
🙏🏻
First of all: I hope your friends in Florida and the part of your family who lives there, came (and will come) through well - this hurricane and upcoming storms and bad weathers.
Georgia: 🎼"Georgia On My Mind...." 🎷🎵Everyone should have...., you showed it - as well as everytime - with your video and comments. By the way: you showed us Jekyll Island, where was Mr. Hyde? You showed us the beauty 💃🏍(😉), where was the beast?
Hello 🙏👍👍👍♥️
Hello! 🙏🏻
👍
🙏🏻🙏🏻
Xcellent presentation. Thank you for the beautiful photos and history
Careful driving on I95. They have potholes and big as your bike!
hallo, guten morgen 🌞 Lea, ich hoffe du warst nicht vom Orkan betroffen, liebe Grüße tschuss
very nice video just a shame about the rain but yes motorcyclists don't care about that, top.
Aye... variety of life
One week sand, more sand in Africa
Next.. concrete.. tarmac roads in eastern USA
Stay safe
PS.. beautiful beach scenes
Ohhhh Africa, I still miss it!!!
i am watching you epsod very beautifull like you i am from pakistan
First view
Always first view!
🤟
Leaving Savannah, the turmoil and throb of the domus... The continuous, muffled roar of the engine and, in time, it stops... However brief. In an extensive blanket of sand, bathed by the Atlantic Neptune, the breeze that infuses the sail, in an undulating murmur, is lost sight of... The porch, a chair rests, a slight creaking refuses to fall asleep. On the shores of the sea, several arms of mountains Rise, their hands in waterfalls hide from Tallulah Gorge to Vogel... On the coast , the slight creak, sleeps with the breeze and the last rays of the Georgia sun... riding the wave, waving ..., see you soon! To the sea, to the dream,... I wave!
He is back! Thank you for this poem dear Antonio! 🌹
@@Got2Go It, s my one way to give you something really special for your lovely work, thank you so much, dear Lea.
Hi Lea, enjoyed your video, but as you say one's heart must go out to the people of the southeast coast of the United States, with all that destruction, and Devastation caused by the unbelievably powerful hurricane Ian. Let's just prey the loss of life is small. Thank you..
Yes, I really hope so too - and that all these places are still there when it passed!!
🏍🌎🤩❤
i live in Brunswick and this island protects Brunswick from hurricanes that blue car was my sister.
No problemo Lea. I do not hae the wich or the monneyto go to the USA. Im happy to follow You here. But if you kpmming to europa then i pack my bike... Thanks for schering.

Jekyll Island, where the Dragon was born
Great video. Having logged hundreds of thousands of miles on a motorcycle myself, I know exactly what you mean about having to change plans. It sucks, but what can you do?
Yes you just have to go with the flow - or with the sun!
Disappointed that there seems to be more shots of your gps unit. For example driving thru the historic district you missed a million photo ops of these truly wonderful historic homes!
Your vlogs are awesome, specially your drone shots. Dream chaser( rider from INDIA) send me link of your channel. Love from INDIA
i live very close to jekyll, and trust me it's not worth a damn. and you have to pay a toll to go there.
👏👏👏👏👏👍🤬👍🧿🧿
Thank you!
Seyahat arkadasın yok ?
SC is more appropriately called the "peach state."
You mean the ancient Canaanite site where the FED was born... of blood sacrifice?
Is there still slavery there?
I will talk about slavery in the next video. All the east coast and especially former plantations like jekyll have a huge history of slavery. So it’s of course not a subject I want to ignore and that I decided to put a focus on in the next episode, where I will visit old plantations too. That’s as well what I talked about when I said “not always shiny history”.
Of course. I think most everyone owns at least one white person.
Residents of Jekyll island do pay a fee to go on/off the island- though there is a yearly pass they can purchase so they can come/go as often as they want.
We camped there and did not like the fee. Each time we came and went we had to pay. You should pay once and have a pass to leave and return. Otherwise it was a nice visit.
