    So if you missed the crazy roads we did in Georgia you can see one of them here th-cam.com/video/MouQzcNxWQw/w-d-xo.html. Or if you want to see the Tea Road in Turkiye then check out this video th-cam.com/video/gznZ8-4JnKg/w-d-xo.html. Let us know which one you think is the most scary !!! C&M xx

      Hello Ersel bey
      We've known you from the videos.
      As my country man I am so proud of people like you.
      Turkiye it is!
      Chris and Marianne were very nice to stop by in Florida to visit my family.
      I appreciated it very much.
      They are extremely nice individuals and the way they put our country on the map and because of them so many people visiting TURKIYE now and the Turtle project and fundraising etc.
      Sometimes, I am almost ashamed of myself not being able to do what Chris and Marianne did for our country, that is the reason why I call them " Our Ambassadors".
      I love them. 💕💕💕🇹🇷🇹🇷In the meantime, I am glad to exchange this comments with you Ersel Bey!
      Have a great day!🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷👍👍

    I highly recommend driving Furka Pass in Switzerland. You’ll absolutely love it.
    It had Waterfalls, stunning vistas, Turquoise lakes, and a glacier.
    The glacier is partially blanketed to slow the melting. But they also cut a small pedestrian tunnel through it.

    This made me wanna pack up and move to Ouray. Lovely video! I always wanted to live in a small town covered in a pine forest. Flagstaff, AZ is one of the coolest places that also fit that description with so many other places to visit nearby including Sedona with beautiful red rock formations and of course, the Grand Canyon and other national parks.

    Your Million dollar road might be scarier than Sonora Pass coming out of Yosemite, in California. But I remember having death grips on the grips in our Jeep when driving there. So many switchbacks and drop-offs. I don't believe Sonora pass' roads were as nice as what was in your video, but it made for a memorable trip. My son & I were sure my husband would gawk too much and go over the side at any moment! The drive inside of Yosemite was spectacular! We oooh'd and awwww'd each time we came upon beautiful scenery...we sounded like we did when watching a magnificent fireworks display on the 4th of July! It could be called TMDR because of its million dollar views while driving.

  • @pelinbulent4892
    @pelinbulent4892 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Wow! What beautiful scenery. Definitely NOT the scariest- everyone should watch your Georgia videos. They are scary roads- I wouldn’t call them roads as they don’t have tarmac or anything. And the next video would be the tea plantation one in Turkey. That’s when I realised what a fabulous driver Marianne is. She never fails to stay happy which is why I’ve been watching you ever since. Stay safe xxxx

    I drive the million dollar highway, a few years ago, pulling a trailer. It definitely required 100% concentration but getting to Ouray made the drive worth the white knuckle drive. Ouray is one of my favorite little cities I have been to in all my travels. Safe travels!

    Hi, I am a new viewer to your vlog and am enjoying your travels. I have traveled the Million Dollar Highway many times, starting as a child with my grandmother back in the 1950's when the hwy was not as sophisticated as it now (and much more treacherous). It is by far my most favorite highway to travel in Colorado and to me the most beautiful. I don't travel any more, as I don't have my travel partner anymore, so I really enjoy living vicariously through these travel vlogs. Enjoy your travels through the U.S. and travel safe.

    Please! Please! Please! Buy some spray oil and apply it to the hinges and detent arm in Trudy's doors! Why? Because that squeeking noise is the warning sign that your hinges are wearing out. What eventually will happen is the door will start to sag down and will start to wear the "strike plate" that holds the door shut. If left unattended long enough it will sag to a point that it can actually break the pin off! To check for wear, you can open the door all the way and pick up on the door. If it goes up and comes back down, the wear has already started. I ran a Welding shop for 40 years. Believe me! Maintenance is more than changing your oil. Actually motor oil works great to lube hinges.

The mountains are epic! Plus try to see Mount Robson, BC on highway 16, it is the highest mountain in the Canadian Rockies and the most prominent mountain in the North American Rockies. Just fabulous on a clear day!

    Not the most dangerous road for you two but like you said, very beautiful. My jaw dropped when you said how much it costs to ride the Durango/Silverton train, I rode it, in around 1983 and I think It was $25 then. So glad you got to experience this part of the country, Colorado is such a beautiful state to tour. Onward to Alaska Trudy.....mush! Cheers mates.

    You may remember the '70s CB song "Convoy" by C. W. McCall. His real name was Bill Fries, and he spent the last decades of his life in Ouray -- even serving as mayor for a time. I highly recommend looking up his song "Wolf Creek Pass" both for a laugh and as a cautionary tale of careless mountain driving. 😆😆❤️❤️😎👍xx

    The official cure for fear of heights is to confront these situations until your brain is trained into realizing that you are safe. I had to drink a few shots just watching your video.

    Pah! Million dollar highway is not match for the intrepid Trudy! It's going to take more than a few rough roads to slow that van down! Looks like a fab drive, one to really savour in both directions! Have a great week!

    To me, Daughtry Rim on 140 in Oregon is scarier. There is a 1.908 mile drop. I would not drive either again.

    Did you visit the hot spring pools in Ouray? My favorite thing to do after hiking there.

    Loved it, very interesting, dangerous road? On the scale of from 1 to 10, it should be 6, especially for a top driver like Marianne.
    Thanks folks

    Beautiful video, it's really spectacular in the fall when the Aspen trees turn a golden yellow! Well, you know what the Colorado highway department loves to joke about, is the reason why they have no guardrails... It's because the tourist keeps knocking them down! I have made many a trip to Colorado through the years, and its beautiful country, rich in mining history such as gold and silver mining a lot of fortunes were made in the mid 1800"s. I believe when the snow flies, they probably close the million-dollar highway, it's just not drivable. By the way, the hair pin curves are referred to as "switch backs".

    Hello Ambassadorsssss!❤️❤️❤️🇹🇷🇹🇷
    Great to see you comeback.
    Colorado is simply what I am. Love the rocks and the views.
    I have done this road on our 3 rd year anniversary.
    At times, when there were no guardrails, yes I was scared driving on it, though I was not the driver. Some places as Chris you stated correctly, all these different colors are the indication of iron, silver, manganese etc ores and those rocks shows themselves as chaotic structures and they are the BASEMENT of Colorado, about 2BY old ( they are called MAGMATIC rocks)
    Then you passed in some areas that the rocks TILTED and very thinly layered structured , those are my guess would be METAMORPHIC rocks= Meta means CHANGED) possibly 1.6 BY ROCKS,
    and then you have also seen very on top HORIZONTALLY layered thin and thick rocks that they are THE SEDIMENTARY ROCKS ( formed on the bottom of the ocean; believe you me there was an ocean at time covering that region)
    And the COLORADO pleatau was uplifted ( not sure) but about 30 MY years ago and all these rocks have risen above
    the ocean and mighty
    Colorado river took over to cut these rocks through to create these Canyonland.
    I love these videos even more when I see myself in it (!!). I am so excited for that a HUGE THANK YOU guys.
