Hi I really like your channel and subscribed into it. You guys are amazing travelers. I am originally from Nepal. We recently did ABC trekking after watching your ABC Trek video and information about cost. We are looking into some of the cool places that you guys have been to like Curacao, Aruba, St John. We have watched your videos but don't know where you got the package or you simply buy everything and bundle it. Which way is cheaper?
I am in freezing weather, but my whole mood suddenly improved when I see the island of St. John! Thank you for bringing me a little warmth! The underwater world is so beautiful, and those two turtles are so cute. They seem to regard you as friends! It is a great honor to hear the history of St. John island and pay tribute to the martyrs who once defended their homeland on the island! Thank you for sharing such a wonderful and informative video! Looking forward to seeing your birthday surprise, happy birthday to you! 👍🥰🙌🎁🎈🎉
We have been following you two since the beginning. You have the best travel videos on You Tube. Thank you for taking us to so many places that we would never had gotten to visit.
Another fabulous video from Chris and Carol....thanks so much for taking us along on your travels. This is one of the finest channels on You Tube. Happy Birthday, Chris!
Snorkeling among colorful fish,stingrays and turtles,bent palm trees and unique views of lush greenery ,it was an extraordinary experience for me.Thank you.👍
yours are still among the very best travel videos on the internet and of all the varied places that you have visited, you seem most in your element on the islands thanks for the video
Thank you, thank you, thank you for this video. Trunk Bay is in my opinion one of the best (except crowds at times) beaches anywhere. Such a great vibe. The sand and water are awesome. Brought back some wonderful times.
Yes U.S. most beautiful island! Not like we have very many. Lol Y'all just brought me back to my youth with such fond memories of this island. Went there in 9/1988 on day trip from St. Thomas. Wish we could've stayed there the whole trip. Like chris said so many beaches! We just parked on side of road and tracked through the jungle which was very steep to a small little secluded beach. After all these years I still say St. John is the most beautiful island I've ever been to.
Brings back a lot of great memories. I love St. John. I didn’t do much hiking like the two of you did. Definitely need to revisit to experience more of the island on foot. Great snorkeling shots of the turtles as well. The Windmill Bar is always a great stop. As you were driving back to the port you past by Longboard, which is one of my favorite spots for food and drinks. Awesome video, I’m glad you two enjoyed it!! 👍🏻
Great video, I’ve been been wanting to visit the St. John and this video just made my choice. Definitely looks like an underrated place still not yet discovered by social media.
2017 was Hurricane Maria. Last time I was there. Traveled up and back for 15 years. Glad you made it. Camp out on Cinnamon or hike thru park to Solomon or my favorite-Honeymoon Beach. Lucky Ducks! 🦆🦆
Yes!!!!! Honeymoon beach is the greatest place on earth that I’ve ever been to. I dream of it all of the time. I made my family do the hike to get there and it was so hot and longer than expected, so I thought they were going to kill me. But as soon as we got to Honeymoon Beach, all was forgiven. Love that place.
I was so happy to meet yall. We love to watch y’all’s videos. Your videos always inspire us to go out on our own adventures. The game you always see is called cornhole.
Aww, Chris, great video - you make me want to go back. I’ve stayed a week on St. John, two different times. The eastern end is the most chill which is really saying something cuz the whole island is chill. U picked good music to go with the scenery. Happy Birthday- I’m sure Carol came up with something special for you.
Your videos are showing me all the things I missed when I visited the Virgin Islands. Thanks so much for the good coverage. The snorkeling video was particularly well done. That's one of the things I missed. Keep up the good work!
Hey guys, you should add Guam and Saipan to your itinerary! We just got back from 5 weeks on those 2 islands in Micronesia.. They're US overseas territories in the Pacific & are the furthest east US overseas territories. Beautiful beaches & great snorkeling there too!😊😎
Man you guys are just one of the best out there! Just calmly taking us all over the world and showing us all that you do and experience. The turtles really got to me, and then 'BAM' we're back on land, going somewhere else that's interesting! Ok that's enough 'fan-boying' for one day😃
Great video as always guys, please dont get too close to the stingrays Chris! Their barb can be deadly. Stay safe guys and Thanks for always taking us with you on your travels ❤
Happy birthday! St. John island looks lovely. I was peeking back in your catalog all the way to the beginning, and you've both grown so much. Who would've known you'd be going for over 6 years already. Always a pleasure to check in with you both, your vids are so relaxing to watch. All the best in the new year :)
Just wanna say, ive been watching you guys for years! Longtime subscriber!!👍🏼 Truly love watching your videos and seeing all the beautiful places you go to! Anytime i need to "get away" i just watch your videos, very relaxing and chill as well! Love the island videos the most!!! Dont stop doing what your doing!🌴🐠🌎🍹😎😎🐬🌴🌴
We had a lovely vacation on St. John several years ago and touched on several of the beaches and nicer places to eat. Unfortunately I understand that the Cannel Bay Resort is no longer in operation, we really enjoyed staying there.
Love that beach bar that you stopped at. Looked tasty! The game that the couple was playing is called Cornhole. Also, love the beat at the 21:40 mark. Thanks for sharing. :)
We're going to San Juan, St Kitts & Tortola. We've been to a lot of islands in the Caribbean & they all have their own uniqueness. We're on a cruise with family so we're excited. Especially since we live in Colorado and currently -2 right now! With snow! Love your channel. @@JumpingPlaces
I'm currently watching your 2 Spain videos cause we're going there in November of this year. I think we need more exploration of Spain!!!! @@JumpingPlaces
My husband and I love your videos. Your photography and drone shots are awesome. We were on a cruise and did an excursion from St Thomas to St John hoping to snorkel the underwater trail. The water was too rough and turbulent with poor visibility that even getting in and out of the water was difficult. Sadly we didn’t get to do it and were hoping you would have shown it in this video while you were at Trunk Bay. We were there on Dec 17 and it would have been great to meet the two of you. Safe travels to you from San Diego.
I personally feel like you didn’t miss anything with the underwater trail. It was the least impressive snorkeling on the island. Maho Bay was amazing though. I swam near a turtle the size of a coffee table! The waters are just so clear on St. John. But I understand what you mean about the waves on Trunk. I’ve been there when it was so calm and sweet and then other days it was as wavy as the Atlantic!
waters look stunning great video chris keep up the good work mate waiting you to check out grenada ,, Dominica ,antigua ,barbados st kitts st vicent ,tobaago trinidadad
I imagine the left side driving is due to logistics back in the day, it stuck culturally so it still remains today. As an American, I think it’s cool and unique. Stay different!
@@JumpingPlaces I know, that was the first vlog of yours I watched. Since then I have been a subscriber. Also I spent 6 months as an exchange student in Brasil after high school (1971 long before you were born!). I really enjoyed the series when you returned to Brasil for a few months. So interesting to see the changes and all the wonderful areas I never visited. Happy New Year to you both!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHRIS !!!
Of course they have the best videos😜
This looks like an amazing place to visit! Cheers from freezing Canada 🙂

Thanks for following after all these years :D
Because unlike raw videos which are boring, theirs use music and editing to show the mood.
Another fabulous video from Chris and Carol....thanks so much for taking us along on your travels. This is one of the finest channels on You Tube. Happy Birthday, Chris!
Cheers!
St John, is beautiful... St. Croix, though... Diving, Snorkeling, hit the point. STX provides the more laid back Caribbean feel. Give it a visit.
Snorkeling among colorful fish,stingrays and turtles,bent palm trees and unique views of lush greenery ,it was an extraordinary experience for me.Thank you.👍
The perfect island
Thank you for coming up! Cheers!
Happy Birthday Chris Another Amazing and Beautiful Adventure Thank You🙂❤👍
Thanks so much
yours are still among the very best travel videos on the internet and of all the varied places that you have visited, you seem most in your element on the islands thanks for the video
They probably are our preferred places :D
Beautiful scenery indeed,Chris and Carol! The underwater ones were breathtaking. Thanks for sharing!
Glad you enjoyed it
Thank you, thank you, thank you for this video. Trunk Bay is in my opinion one of the best (except crowds at times) beaches anywhere. Such a great vibe. The sand and water are awesome. Brought back some wonderful times.
Such a beautiful beach :D
Go back soon John and make new memories!!! Life is short.
We've been to STJ many times, as it's our favorite place on earth, and you did a lovely job of capturing its beauty. Thank you! :)
Very nice video. I love the relaxed vibes and island beauty. Happy Birthday Chris🎉
Thanks so much!
Yes U.S. most beautiful island! Not like we have very many. Lol Y'all just brought me back to my youth with such fond memories of this island. Went there in 9/1988 on day trip from St. Thomas.

St. John is our favorite island
Can see why!
The long part of the video of the turtles was so cool. Breathtaking place, St. John. ❤
Very nice and calm video. Thank you for sharing. Happy Birthday 🎉🎉
Thank you! 🤗

Gorgeous! Whenever you can. swim with fish stingray and turtles, you've found paradise. Awesomeness! 😊
For sure :D
Great video, I’ve been been wanting to visit the St. John and this video just made my choice. Definitely looks like an underrated place still not yet discovered by social media.
It is rated highly by many actually. Just go. I have been 6 times and counting. I will be back~!
This island looks beautiful, love the green, unspoilt look and the white sand and that water.
Trunk Bay might be the best beach in the world!! 🔥
Yes, Trunk Bay is spectacular. Everyone, please go there everyday when you visit.
Never really thought of going to St John until this video. Thanks for the video!
Great video! St. John is a special place. We’ve been 5 times and will continue to go back. So many world class beaches on the north shore.
We wishes we had stayed there instead of St thomas and only done a day trip to St thomas
2017 was Hurricane Maria. Last time I was there. Traveled up and back for 15 years. Glad you made it. Camp out on Cinnamon or hike thru park to Solomon or my favorite-Honeymoon Beach. Lucky Ducks! 🦆🦆

St. John - my favorite of the Caribbean islands.
Fantastic turtle footage and beautiful colourful fish. 🐢🐠🐟
Many thanks
Your videos and reviews are very much appreciated. Thank you.
I was so happy to meet yall. We love to watch y’all’s videos. Your videos always inspire us to go out on our own adventures.
The game you always see is called cornhole.
What a truly beautiful place ......but with a sad history.
Wow such an interesting video! Beautiful views of all types. Thanks for sharing 🎉 happy birthday 🎂
Was there in January weather was spectacular as was the tropical environment! Everyone extremely nice!
Been supporting you guys since Pandemic in the Philippines and I am still here showing my support to you guys. ❤❤
Thanks 😁👍
Just amazing, great to have several uncrowded beaches. Happy birthday, hope the weather held out for you!!
gorgeous beaches and island! i want to go these so bad thank you!🥰😍
You should!
THAT FISH LIFE WAS STUNNING TY TY!!!

Cheers!
I’ve only visited this island on a cruise but it looks like it’s worth exploring all on its own.
Yeah wish we had stayed on this island instead of st thomas
St. Thomas does not hold a candle to St. John. It’s that stunning. Plus, we felt very safe on St. John!
Wow what a beautiful place. Been in the area many times but never to St. John. Your videos are always engaging, never boring.
Thanks 👍
What a fantastic beach- so beautiful. Keep up these great videos and I certainly concur with others that you make the best travel blogs
You found some great spots. It's my favorite island.
thanks for all the details on cost, parking, and suggestions for us going to enjoy st John via car
Hey guys, you should add Guam and Saipan to your itinerary! We just got back from 5 weeks on those 2 islands in Micronesia.. They're US overseas territories in the Pacific & are the furthest east US overseas territories. Beautiful beaches & great snorkeling there too!😊😎
so beautiful and yes the island too !!
Man you guys are just one of the best out there! Just calmly taking us all over the world and showing us all that you do and experience.
The turtles really got to me, and then 'BAM' we're back on land, going somewhere else that's interesting!
Ok that's enough 'fan-boying' for one day😃

Love St.John! Going again in March.
Great video as always guys, please dont get too close to the stingrays Chris! Their barb can be deadly. Stay safe guys and Thanks for always taking us with you on your travels ❤
Great video❤🎉 Enjoyed the snorkeling segment . Hopefully, praying to travel with the family to USVI this year 🙏🏽
Happy birthday! St. John island looks lovely. I was peeking back in your catalog all the way to the beginning, and you've both grown so much. Who would've known you'd be going for over 6 years already. Always a pleasure to check in with you both, your vids are so relaxing to watch. All the best in the new year :)
Cheers! Yes crazy to think that we have been able to keep going after the initial plan of traveling for only 2 years
Just wanna say, ive been watching you guys for years! Longtime subscriber!!👍🏼 Truly love watching your videos and seeing all the beautiful places you go to! Anytime i need to "get away" i just watch your videos, very relaxing and chill as well! Love the island videos the most!!! Dont stop doing what your doing!🌴🐠🌎🍹😎😎🐬🌴🌴
Awesome! Thank you!
Thanks for sharing it with us.
Also the fireburn, with queen Mary, started on St. Croix
We had a lovely vacation on St. John several years ago and touched on several of the beaches and nicer places to eat. Unfortunately I understand that the Cannel Bay Resort is no longer in operation, we really enjoyed staying there.
It’s pretty amazing ! Glad you guys had a good time
Wow, wow. My wife and I spent a week in Maui for our 35th Anniversary , this place reminds me of that.
Definitely need to head to Hawaii, wonder if we will think the islands there are more beautiful than this island
@@JumpingPlaces don't go to Honolulu or Waikiki as it's just another Los Angeles. Maui was a bit touristy but similar to St. Johns.
Very beautiful ☺👍
Thank you so much 😊
Very nice video! The game they were playing is called cornhole. The bags they throw have corn in them, I think.
Incredible video! Wow so beautiful!! It has been on my list for a long time. Might have to move it up a bunch of notches!! Great job guys!!
You should!
Thank you. Peace
Thank you for sharing such beautiful content. You guys are rock stars.. Happy Birthday Chris!
Thanks so much!
Love that beach bar that you stopped at. Looked tasty! The game that the couple was playing is called Cornhole. Also, love the beat at the 21:40 mark. Thanks for sharing. :)
Thanks for the info :)
thanks for sharing
It’s so beautiful you guys, thanks and I will share it with all of my friends
Awesome! Thank you!
amazing view.
It was!
Glad to see ya'll make it to St. John and St. Croix which are a different vibe than St. Thomas.
Only st. john on this visit but hope to visit st. croix one day
I want to go there now 😍
That game you saw is called Cornhole. Very popular in the States. Love your videos!
Happy Birthday Chris!!!🍹🥳
Cheers!
I’m planning to go in October. Hoping we get good weather!
Fantastic island
Happy Birthday Chris! Thanks again for your awesome videos. We'll be in the Caribbean in 15 days!
Nice! Where?
We're going to San Juan, St Kitts & Tortola. We've been to a lot of islands in the Caribbean & they all have their own uniqueness. We're on a cruise with family so we're excited. Especially since we live in Colorado and currently -2 right now! With snow! Love your channel. @@JumpingPlaces
I'm currently watching your 2 Spain videos cause we're going there in November of this year. I think we need more exploration of Spain!!!! @@JumpingPlaces
My husband and I love your videos. Your photography and drone shots are awesome. We were on a cruise and did an excursion from St Thomas to St John hoping to snorkel the underwater trail. The water was too rough and turbulent with poor visibility that even getting in and out of the water was difficult. Sadly we didn’t get to do it and were hoping you would have shown it in this video while you were at Trunk Bay. We were there on Dec 17 and it would have been great to meet the two of you.
Safe travels to you from San Diego.

They are!
I met the owner of the windmill bar. Real nice guy.
Cool :D

Yes! Thank you!
Another amazing place, love watching you both, so chilled and lovely people. Hope you have a great birthday Chris!
Thanks so much!!
Happy Birthday Chris. Great location to enjoy it🎉

Happy birthday Chris !!!🥳🎉🏝🍹
Cheers!
Hey. Nice video. Can you tell me what camera you used to get the underwater video and if you use any filters? Thanks
Happy birthday chris
Thank you for sharing 😊😊😊😊
Cheers!
Interesting islands
Thanks for the beautiful views you bring us to every week! Happy Birthday, Chris! Enjoy a birthday drink on me!!!
Thanks for the support :D

thought you were at least 40!!! too much sun😎
Nope 35, although we didn't even mention his age in this video lol
Happy Birthday, Chris from Vieques, PR. I'm not sure when this was shot, but I just had my 70th birthday and am a happy Capricorn!
Chris birthday was in December :D We loved vieques when we went a few years ago :D
