  • Our next (and final) area we explored in Wisconsin is Door County! Door County is a peninsula in the “left thumb” on the east-central side of Wisconsin, located on Lake Michigan and is home to over 300 miles of shoreline, lighthouses, super charming towns, state parks, farms and orchards, and Western-European and Scandinavian influence.
    In today's video, we share our first day in Door County, which was filled with beautiful lake views, some unique experiences, FIRE, and more!

    Married a girl who was from door county before her family moved to texas when she was in 7th grade. We have returned many times to visit. I was a 19 year old sailor in the USN when she and her family took me on my first Door County. Cave Point was my favorite place. We had a picture taken while visiting the Point, and the picture is still one of my favorites of us more than 40 years later. We have two daughters who still consider the Door as their favorite vacation destination. Just one of the great places in the USA.

    So pleased you got coffee from bearded coffee. Before you said you'd got them from there, I'd spotted their logo and it has to be one of the best logos I've seen in a long time! A coffee that tastes like worthers originals sounds delicious. The tractor ride looked amazing- we have a place in either Devon or Cornwall, can't quite remember, but they do the same thing! One thing I know you guys never do is click bait thumbnails (which I really appreciate) and so I knew after seeing that flame photo, something awesome was going to happen. I'd never heard of fish boil before so learnt something new... and so proud of you Kathryn for going with the fish! 🐟🐠

    • @AdventuresofAplusK
      @AdventuresofAplusK  Před 2 lety +2

      We are super big on coffee shop logos! We love when places take the time to have good branding and theirs was amazing! Ooo we will have to do a tractor ride when we make it your way, we loved the tractor so much haha!
      We are anti-click bait over here, so glad you appreciate that aspect! That fire photo was too "WOW!" to pass up putting on this one! I will say, while I don't necessarily love fish, I do LOVE me some fish and chips!

    Love your channel! This video hit me hard in a good way, because my family (many generations ago) were some of the first settlers in Door County. We have property up there on the lake, we go up numerous times every year. So happy you did this video, and glad you enjoyed your trip there.

    • @dustrho
      @dustrho Před 2 lety +4

      ​@@AdventuresofAplusK The most popular towns are Sister Bay, Ephraim and Fish Creak. For a good lunch go to JJ's in Sister Bay or Wilson's in Ephraim. You can take a ferry to Washington Island which would be fun for you two, you can rent bicycles or scooters and venture out on your own there. Peninsula State Park is gorgeous to drive through, especially at dusk when all the deer come out to eat before the end of the day. Best time to go up there is in the Fall because the colors on the trees are SPECTACULAR! If you ever go there in the Fall, head up when they have Fall Fest in Sister Bay which usually happens mid-October. There's lots of beaches and trails up in the area. Oh, since you both love food go to Seaquists in Ellison Bay for all sorts of good homemade food (jams, jellys, syrups, salsas, pies, cookies, etc). Really, REALLY enjoyed this video. Was so nice and special that you both experienced it. I'm not a fish person but my family has always enjoyed the fish boils up there.

    • @AdventuresofAplusK

We enjoyed the Old Post Office Fish Boil, Wilson's Ice Cream and Eagle Tower in Ephraim, a Tall Ship cruise on the Edith M. Becker ship, lunch at Boathouse on the Bay, and gelato at Door County Creamery in Sister Bay, Cana Island Lighthouse, tractor ride and hiking trail, Whitefish Dunes State Park hiking trails, lunch at Harbor Fish Market & Grille in Bailey's Harbor. Next time we visit, we plan to do the cave kayaking and visit the goat farm! Also, we are currently enjoying your travels to Alaska! Happy Trails!

    We got to camp there early last September and went to Cave Point at sunrise too. Fun to see that the new tower is now open at Peninsula State Park. We did the fish boil decades ago with friends. Fun tradition, but not much of a fan of boiled food theses days. Hope you went to Wilson’s in Egg Harbor for ice cream or burgers
