36 years young. Born in San diego in 1983 still living here to this day and you have done more in 1 day then I have in 36 years being here

Robert, I found your channel just after moving from California (Northern / Central Coast) 7 years ago to Ohio/Kentucky. The California videos helped with my home sickness over the years. Now I use your videos to pick travel destinations for the family road trips. Thanks for the great content!
San Diego Native here, thank you for sharing my beautiful City!
Love your voice!
Being born and raised in San Diego, and now living in Colorado, I would like to thank you for the brief, but enjoyable, memory refresh....especially having often visited every place you went...except the border "wall", which wasn't there when I left California in 1977. My grandfather & grandmother are buried on the pacific ocean side area of Ft. Rosecrans. Oh yes, being as you like model railroads, the next time you visit, be sure include the San Diego Model Railroad Museum in Balboa Park. Of the 4 different layouts in there, I was able to run my trains on the N-scale layout. You WILL be surprised by the size of each of them. Be safe, have fun, & happy camping. v/r, TS - Denver
Great video, I need to visit San Diego very beautiful city.It is very interesting the wall between Mexico and USA. Congrats. Go ahead...>>> Love, MOM.
Lots and lots of fun, historic and beautiful. Love San Diego county.
It's been several years since I've been to San Diego with my family. The old town model wasn't there the last time I was there. We have stayed at the Koa in Chula vista several times it's a really nice campground. There is the San Deigo Model Railroad Musem located in Balboa Park. The Midway Musem is also worth checking out. If you want to visit Mexico take the Blue Line trolly to the border it a short walk. There used to be a trolly you could take from the Koa.
This was my 1st video of yours I saw, then been watching since!
San Diego kind of reminds me of Miami w/dried climate & beautiful mountains.you've made a great life for yourself Robert.
It is actually nothing like Miami IMO. Totally different vibe, climate and terrain. The Pacific Ocean is also very different to the Atlantic around Florida. Much colder, much more dramatic. San Diego is also much more Mexican and Asian influenced. Miami is more Cuban and South American. You're almost better off speaking Spanish than English in Miami.
Miami is hot and sticky and humid, San Diego has the perfect weather
Richard Morris
Nothing like Miami.. I live here.. It’s a completely different beast. I have been to Miami many times, the comparison is minimum.
That model train display was INCREDIBLE!
San Diego Zoo...we used to go there with family as kids. I find it too metropolitan too much, to many people, it was interesting to hear your views on the wall and the shabby park in California state park chain. I don't think you got to all those corner spots on this trip, but you did get to the great NW point too. This next group of videos I'm sure will make me a bit home sick. I moved from Central Coast CA, to Washington Olympic mountain area, then to up state New York. It just goes to show how different these USA states are. I love watching your videos. New music is enhancing to you beautiful photography. Thanks again!
I am thoroughly enjoying this road trip Robert and your skills are improving all the time. One of the best you tube channels and I would like to wish you all the best and to stay safe to you and your family for 2020!
Really? I can't watch the videos anymore....they make me dizzy due to the film speed. Not relaxing at all like they used to be when I first found them. The only relaxing film is the drone film. Laura NJ
Laura, just look away occasionally if you are susceptible to motion effects. I'm always looking at a map on my phone to keep up.
Brought back some nice memories seeing that , visited all though spots and the weather was gorgeous when I was there so much to see in San Diego beautiful city 👌
27:12 is the working lighthouse. San Diego Native for 60 years 55 in Point Loma
Thank you for what you give us thru your beautiful music and scenery. Such quality work.
Todo bello y exquisito nuevamente, muchas gracias Señor Robert.
Thank you for sharing... sad we can’t enjoy the beautiful beach together....Love thy neighbor.✌️
Glad You made it to my neck of the woods, Robert. It's nice to see what's new since I was last down there 10 years ago. You had a little June Gloom weather in July. :-)
Nice smooth jazz music , too. TY.
Outstanding! I've been wanting to tour San Diego for quite some time now. Great to see it through your lens. Getting stoked for the "cruisin the 395" episode. Happy New Year brother!
Hitting all the right spots in my part of the country the last few episodes. Great videos.
Really enjoying your road trip so far. You gave me lots of ideas for my trip to San Francisco last year. I’m sure I’ll be getting more ideas when you’re up in the Pacific NW!
yeh me too, i was bon on an island with natural borders (england) so iv never seen a border wall or fence in reality. that chinese boat was a car transporter probly bringing in cars from japan. chinese goods come in container ships.
Great video Robert! Very well narrated and with a great variety of scenes.
I recently discovered Traveling Robert and his fabulous videos and music. Like him putting a sticker on each state he visits,
I am going to post this comment on all the videos I watch! You da man, Robert!!
Happy New Year, Robert! Many blessings to you and your family. As always very interesting video and educational! Thank you!
Hello Robert, is so nice to travel with you through your videos. I have been to San Diego, I have a nice that lived there during her college years, but I didn’t see some many nice places, as I saw in your’s. Thank you. Big hug from Brazil 🇧🇷
Born in California, been to San Diego many times, but i really need to thank you for your video Roberto, but we've never been to old town san Diego, it's really very Mexican, I hope we all get thru this COVID-19 so we can take a trip to San Diego.
Great video. San Diego is a wonderful city. I live about 2 hours north. I went to boot camp in san Diego and stationed in camp Pendleton for a bit.
Thank you Robert. Keep exploring and have a Happy New Year 🎊
You keep hitting 'home runs' with your videos, my friend. As always, have fun and stay safe.
ate at the same place in old town on ,our or rv trip . LOVED it , we have a small dog and the saloon was the only place to eat with him ,but we still talk about that place 4 years latter
Nice! I grew up in San Diego in the 70s and 80s till the Navy sent me away, haha. This video made me home sick...thanks for the memories!! 👍
I enjoy your videos. I'm really enjoying these from areas I've visited and would like to again. I enjoyed your visit to San Diego and bit my tongue wanting to give you tips.
I watch, also, to see how you manage travel with your Mini. We have toyed with the idea of doing the same. Nice to see you do it.
Thanks for the tour! I definitely want Mexican food for lunch or dinner today😋
Born and raised in Ocean Beach San Diego... still live in OB... great video Robert
San Diego!!- Ocean Beach used to be My Home Town-->Have a Happy New Year!!🎊
OB, YEAH. hodads.
I can’t believe you didn’t go to OB
My favorite Sunday video has been uploaded! Thanks Robert.
Gooooood morning Robert! Thank you for the new video. San Diego is a neat place, and it has a nice climate. Have a great day, and remember, we keep you and your family in our prayers. Fly pelican, fly! 😎🌴👍
Thank you!
I've lived in San Diego for 40+ years, but have never visited Old Town - but now I have thru you! You're like my personal traveler, visiting places I probably wouldn't but would like to 'see' in some way. I now live about 3 miles SOUTH of The Wall, and again, have never visited that park (if you can call it that). I enjoy the videos for exercise, I may start them all over again :). Small PP donation made, more to come.
Too bad it wasn't sunny San Diego! REALLY looking forward to this next video. :) Thanks, Robert and Happy New Year!
Another awesome video Robert. Just watching your video I can tell that you put alot of time in your editing because it shows. I love all the different camera angles when your driving.
Thank you!
Regarding your mention of our marine layers etc, a word of advice about Southern and Northern California weather. A comedian said that the hardest job in America is being a weatherman in San Diego. They pay you a bunch of money but you have to come up with a new and interesting way to say “the weather tomorrow will be just like it was today” Northern California from Monterey up get its influence not only from the ocean but the Central Valley. Dummies guide explanation is in the summer July-Aug the valley heats up and creates a pressure area. It makes the fog back up over the coast and it can get really foggy and cold. The pressure area starts dissipating in Sept. The fog moves through and the weather on the coast is SPECTACULAR Sept, Oct and most of November. Nobody out there either. Camp anywhere.
Today’s vocabulary lesson: Anachronism - a thing belonging or appropriate to a period other than that in which it exists. Thanks Robert!
Yes San Diego has alot to explore a lot of those places I haven't never even been to and I've lived here in California almost all my life except for 3 years which we lived in Florida but going to have to check them out
Very nice Robert! It's sad to see the park next to Mexico so run down and it looked empty compared to the activity on the Mexican side. Loved the detail in the model railroad setup. Great shots in Old town and San Diego.
Thank you for presenting such outstanding videos of places I might never see
Great video Robert! You gave me more ideas to visit in San Diego. You passed through twice on the 15/210 (Rancho Cucamonga/Fontana area) fwy junction where I grew up. Pretty cool to see those on your video too. Happy New Years and I’ll see you on the journey up the 395. 🤟🏻😊🤟🏻
Model train is impressive. I’d stop to view after seeing it here. Great show as always.
Beautiful area, especially the Hotel Coronado.I was in San Diego back in 1989 and left a week before the California earthquake. Good timing. I need to get back there sometime.
I wish I would have had more time to stop at the Coronado...
Excellent video. Great mix of natural sights and interesting attractions. Loved the train display and the lighthouse. You gave us something to think about at the US/Mexican border 🇺🇲 🇲🇽 We even saw pelicans! 👍
Boy that was on long trip across the country, Bunny, your jumping again!!!1
We’re on the hype train , awesome video Robert! Happy New Years Eve
Hello Traveling Robert! I have been a huge fan of yours. While you are in San Diego you should visit Cabrillo National Monument and Point Loma lighthouse. Point Loma offers absolutely stunning vistas across San Diego bay and San Diego. Not to be missed. Happy New Year Robert!
🍾🍾Happy New Year🍾🍾Love your videos and your channel keep up the great work 👍
I love the adventurous spirit, of the Traveling Robert. Smart man, gas, tax write off "business experience". Do the damn thing.
Very cool video! I would say you didn't miss much as far as OB goes. Fun place to party in the evening. Lot's of homeless there. La jolla is a great place next time you come through.
Yay, my most favorite video and place you featured ❤ since I am based and living in this beautiful place ❤ thank you for featuring America's finest city. And I am totally agree with you with the status of the international friendship park, in Imperial Beach, though I never been there myself I felt your disappointment about it. Hope the State will do something about it.
San Diego seems amazing I personally would want to live in Southern California someday and that’s what I’m planning on doing.
I'm looking forward to your next episode traveling north on 395 to the Sierra Nevada Mountain region. Will you be visiting Yosemite National Park?
Definitely.
If you are going to Yosemite please keep in mind that Tioga Pass Rd( Route 120 ) from Lee Viking to Yosemite is always closed during winter, so just keep that in mind. Mammoth Lakes, which is along 395 is an absolutely beautiful town.
Looking at random videos and to my surprise I see my VW bus at Friendship Park. I could tell you a lot about that place.
Robert, I just watched episode #16 - San Diego, Old Town and Cabrillo video. I love old town San Diego. I used to live in San Diego in the 70's when my husband was in the Navy. It's changed a lot since then, of course like every large city has. I told my kids I want my ashes thrown under the beautiful tree in Old Town. I've loved that tree for years. If you Stop the video at 14:17 that's the tree. 😊 I loved seeing it again in your video. From Portland, OR. 😎✌Next time you're in San Diego take the tour bus. You see so much for $40 bucks, and you have all day to sight see. You just catch another tour bus back. So worth it.
Wow, that IS a beautiful tree. I've been there 5 times in my life and never noticed it until now. I hope your children grant your wish.
Balboa Park in Downtown San Diego has the Miniature Train Museum, really awesome.
Great video Robert!
I really enjoy your narration!
The United States side is the eerie looking side. The Mexican side looks more normal with families enjoying themselves.
Robert, you did a pretty good job talking about my beloved city. I was born and raised here in San Diego, and yes you are correct, Old Town is very much "touristy." But, you get the idea, it's Old Town. Lol
If you ever come back to San Diego, I'd love to show you my beautiful city more. Great job!
I went here in January San Diego is so underrated as a city very beautiful I spend a month
That Blue and White ship you filmed is Called Auto Hauler, Carries around 10,000 cars mostly from Japan. Enjoyed your video.
I really liked you showes Japanese American history and border...that was really good
Well now i definetely need to go to san diego, what a cool and diverse city!
I've lived here all my life and you still manage to find and see things I've never seen! Cheers
West Coast Pelicans.."fly pelicans fly...another great vid....
Great video Robert, I cant wait till you visit Seattle Washington....so much to film & see in Downtown Seattle & its nearby places like Bellevue Washington & even Tacoma.
Great vid Robert, thanx.
Lovely video. I was very surprised, however, at the way that State Park looked, I would think that California would take more pride in how it looks. It was interesting seeing Mexico so close. I love the architecture in "Old San Diego" and the city itself seems to have lots to offer as do the surrounding areas. I am looking forward to the next video. I haven't been keeping up as much as I would like, my husband has been in the hospital so that has kept me away from home. He is home now though and we are once again loving your adventures.
Happy New Year dear Robert ✌🏼
Greetings from Germany to u and all U.S. 🇺🇸❤️
Another interesting tour, Robert.
Another great video Robert. Thank you.
Thank you!
You need to Camp at Campland on the Bay in Mission Bay in San Diego. Very nice!
I'm watching your series, and I'm enjoying it very much. I think the Fresnel Lens is usually pronounced "Fray-nel". I bought some the size of a credit card to help read tiny print.
You missed Balboa tennis club, and the Zoo . Not to mention the Aircraft Carrier Midway.
Hey you filmed this on my birthday! That's great. LOL! I love the coastal views. Love watching your videos.
Trisha Morris Luke did you have a good birthday
@@elisscaliving5864 yep. Sure did
My Honey took me out.
Good trip again ! Happly new year
Thanks Robert always wanted to see San Diego, your friend lost weight in the face area she needs food too lol! Have a Happy New Year Robert 😊
Hotel El Coronado was built by 2 brothers without using arquictetual blue prints. Also the hotel was the 1st building in Calif to have electricity and indoor plumbing. Ty 🖐🙂👍🇺🇸
Hey Robert, I'm a San Diego native and long-time fan of your travelogues. You walked past my favorite Old Town restaurant, El Agave! If you make it to San Diego again, try to stop in to try one (or more) of the 400 kinds of tequila they have there...all displayed on the walls. Oh yeah, the food is pretty tasty too! And if you like model trains, there's a fantastic setup in Balboa Park.
Great. As always.
very nice sandieog segment loveley
Happy New Year! Also I hope your wife is aware of your friend at 13:00
A week is too loooooooong to wait! We have to wait until the next decade has started... haha! Couldn't you post a little bit earlier - like a New Year present or something :) x
Hola Robert le escribimos desde Argentina! Seguimos sus videos y nos encantan! Esperamos que pueda venir a nuestro país a recorrerlo. Abrazo
Gracias. Espero poder visitar pronto
Thank you very much!
An area I've never seen you visit yet. I dont blame you because its way out the way, but the bottom area of the texas coast would be cool to see you go to. Corpus Christi and down the RGV to the Brownsville, McAllen area.
Next time when you visit Southern California you should come down to Oxnard, California a beach town with historic buildings, museums and great beach side views and a lot of local breweries up in next door city Ventura btw i recommend the Transmisson or Poseidon Brewery. And make sure to stop by my families family owned restaurant Carnitas El Rey #2 on 3021 Saviers Road to try some of the best carnitas in California, we would love to attend you - Omar
good man Robert good job you are the best all the time
It's always memorable to go into an out-of-the-way restaurant & find the food exceeding your expectations.
I sincerely hope your trip up US395 will include visits to the Western Movie Museum in LONE PINE, CA. & the Alabama Hills. $5.00 admission price to the Museum where you'll easily spend 2+ hours. You might even want to visit the Hotel where John Wayne & other Hollywood Western movie Stars stayed during the filming of a Western movie. You'll find plenty of free readily accessible & HUGE RV parking area at THE mall/Grocery Stores in Bishop, CA. RVers are welcome to overnight @ the North end of town approx 1/2 mile past Denny's on the RIGHT side of the road.
Very enjoyable video....thanks!
Thank you!
Another awesome vlog!
So relaxing...zzzzzzz
Great video happy new year
Enjoying all your CA uploads!
