    After sleeping amongst the clouds in the Smokies, we said, “see you later” to the mountains and headed for the city. Turns out, Asheville is a grand city in the mountains, so we were still pleasantly surrounded by nature while strolling downtown. The North Carolina mountain roads were some of the best we’ve ever driven- we recommend the Blue Ridge Parkway as a must-drive while in the state. Our road trip in North Carolina ended with an evening at Max Patch, where we experienced unforgettable 360 views of the soft mountains and cotton candy skies. Stay tuned as we venture further north on our USA road trip and head up to the state of Virginia!
    Follow along to see where we head next.

    Wow that basketball court was awesome, reminds me of the ones in Hong Kong! Might have to hit Asheville sooner than later, your visit makes it look really awesome. Catching up on your journey is my favorite morning coffee activity :) Time for the next video 😎

    You've never mentioned it, but you are driving near the Appalachian Trail. Max Patch is a favorite hike on the trail. Was sorry when I was there that it was raining and totally socked in. Oh well, at least I had a nice visit today. And yes, I love seeing your food porn. :)

    Napping Rocks! So was that a "THC" enhanced beers? I went to a Weed Festival last summer in Delaware where they took steps towards decriminalizing it last year. I actually get to lawfully be a stoner for chronic pain... keeps me chuckling lol. That spot on top of the hill with all the mist sort of reminded me of the UK... It sure is beautiful in North Carolina. Haven't been there in ages, have been to kitty hawk a few times growing up. Happy and Safe Travels!

    • @ChadandClaire
      @ChadandClaire  Před 3 lety +1

      Oooh, I don’t think the beers were enhanced, but that certainly sounds like something to try out someday! Love hearing your personal “fun facts” hahaha very good to hear that your always vibin’ 😂

    Claire recipe for that southwestern soup please.

    • @ChadandClaire
      @ChadandClaire  Před 3 lety +1

      One carton of chicken broth, one can of black or garbanzo beans, one can of Rotel or diced tomatoes, one green bell pepper diced, about 7 mushrooms thinly sliced, chicken tenders cooked and pealed, basil flakes and salt. One pot: cook bell peppers, then toss in mushrooms to cook. Once it’s all cooked, pour in chicken broth, beans (drained), diced tomatoes, pealed chicken (previously cooked), basil flakes, and salt (to taste). Heat until hot. Serve with tortilla chips and shredded cheese. ✨

    Question, why don’t you guys get one planet fitness membership where you can bring a guest in for free to shower more often?

    You guys are so cute. I came here because I was thinking of doing what your doing solo. Did I miss your toilet? Very important for me! Love your shower by the way lol!

    • @ChadandClaire
      @ChadandClaire  Před 3 lety +1

      Yes, we do have a little toilet! It’s actually a potty training toilet for toddlers, but it works fantastic for the both of us. It holds at least 145 pounds- Chad’s weight. We show it in one of our van build videos; I would tag it but I don’t have enough service to pull it up! For this specific toilet, it’s collapsible and packs tightly. It comes with 20 bags to begin- but grocery bags (like Target or Walmart bags) work even better because it wraps the entire toilet. Anyways, as you can tell, we love it. We highly recommend.

    Great video but “wouldn’t expect this to be in North Carolina” is a little absurd. What you witnessed is literally what NC is known for. It’s one of the most geographically and culturally diverse states in the country. And the most geographically diverse on the east coast. Notth Carolina has two of the fastest growing cities in the countries and 2 of the most unique landscapes in the country in the outer banks and the smoky mountains.

    • @ChadandClaire
      @ChadandClaire  Před 3 lety +1

      We genuinely had no idea what to expect from North Carolina. Even though we lived next to the state we had no idea how incredible and diverse it was! It’s certainly one of our favorite states now!
