Nice. Thank you. You are a fine US ambassador.
We are so very thankful for all you have done for us. Your brother from another mother. Eric
The trip of a lifetime... tickets? Thousands. Scheduling: a logistical nightmare. Documenting it for yourself and sharing it with friends? priceless.
Very kind of you to say, John. Thank you. I greatly appreciate your support for my small channel.
@@KrakensGarageandAdventures This is your SMALL channel? What's the BIG one? :D
BTW, your channel isn't small - it's in the top 5% of channels by size.
We are privileged to have met you both. You are a gentleman who represented your country impeccably.
Thank you, hachewie. What you have said is what I have strived for. All the best to you and your beautiful wife.
Stickers/magnets look good on farm equipment too...what a beautiful home Brian and Jenny have!
Their home was amazing! A great view looking in any direction. Much like yours. 💜
Good timing to show Dave and Jaqs. I hope they are both OK. Appears they will be ok.
My heart goes out to Dave and Jax. They appear to be banged up, but otherwise, okay. Ms. Tennessee, not so much... 😪
Great videos of a beautiful place and such gracious people . Everyone I know who has been there has said how wonderful it is. The flowers were so beautiful to see. Thanks for sharing .
Thank you, Doug, for following along on this journey. I did my best to share the adventure without being intrusive with a camera in good folks' lives. I have made lifelong friends on every step of this epic trip.
Such an amazing trip and closing comments about your appreciation for all the great people you met. Well done Eric and Ms. Kraken. Cheers 🍻
Thank you, Eddie. I have trouble articulating my sentiments in my content. I hopefully honored all on this journey in my thoughts.
Such an amazing journey, country, and people. So so happy you and Lisa got to experience it.
Thank you so much, RJ. I wish you and Mrs 602 could have joined us.
They say folks come into your life for a reason. Sometimes for a moment, several moments, or for a lifetime. The lessons we learn from them are different as are the friendships and relationships. I mentioned just this week when someone asked about the Australia trip how it was. I said it was fantastic first and foremost because of the kindness, sincerity, and relationships we developed or had with the folks we met. Kraken has said it best and would like to reiterate a heart-felt thank you ❤
Thank you, Mrs. Kraken. As always, you are the voice of reason. I'm so glad we made this epic journey.❤️
Thank you for sharing all the stories and pics of your adventure! So happy you were able to do this!
Apologies, there wasn't much video on this one. I'm so happy you enjoyed seeing Australia through my eyes.
Wonderful job Eric... fantastic slideshow of photos, a priceless trip of a lifetime and what an awesome group of people 👌🫶🙌👏😁👍👍
Thank you very much for the kind reply. I hope it was enjoyable to watch.
You represented both AUS and the US admirably with your stories mate, well done.
Again, an absolute honour to meet yourself and Lisa, we really enjoyed the meeting and chat.
You’re a gentleman and your humble nature has a positive affect on many… please don’t forget that. ✌️
Thank you for both of you making the time to come see us. Most importantly, thank you for being in my life.
Oh dear! What a story about the lighthouse! Yikes!
I love lighthouses, so this stop was a treat to me !
Eric you did a fine job of capturing Aussie for us that have never been. Thank you for taking us along this journey.
Thank you. I sure tried my best to give viewers a flavor of Oz. Thank you for watching and commenting.
What a blessing to see so many wonderful friends in person...yes, you may never see them again, BUT, we live in a time where we are able to connect with others easily...you'll keep in touch!!
This is true. I guess on my channel o just share the emotion that I'm feeling at the time. Maybe I should filter that? 🤔
Thank you for taking the time and trouble to share this remarkable opportunity. Great scenery and amazingly kind and generous people.
It was truly a trip of our lifetime. I struggle to find the correct verbiage to honor these wonderful folks. Thanks for following this journey.
If I was to gain one nugget of wisdom that I would share with others, it would be to make the best of the time that is granted to us. When the opportunity arises, grab it! Thank you for sharing your time with us! Absolutely loved it all!
You have some very wise words you've shared. Words that I could learn a lesson from. Thank you for watching, commenting and supporting the Australia series. There wasn't much video, mostly static photo dump. I did this to honor these great folks and their inner circle that they let us in for a brief moment in time. Drinks are on me when our paths cross.
So cool you could meet with all your Australian friends and your brother from another mother!
It was an amazing experience. When I was editing that outeo with everyone's pic, they all had the best smiles ever. :)
That was fantastic, Eric. What a way for finish off the Down Under Adventure! I feel very privileged to have met you and Lisa. You're an awesome ambassador of the USA. Ride well. Cheers
My friend, you were paramount in our journey. Don't ever discount what you did for us. It meant the world to me.
This was a once in a lifetime trip. It really showed that there are good people everywhere. And you made great friends that even if you never see them again, they will be with you forever. Loved it!
This is true. I have made many lifetime friends. There's an old saying, never say never. I hope you and Ashley are doing well.
@KrakensGarageandAdventures we are, thank you. Just enjoying riding and adventuring without the worry of cameras.
Beautiful sights. Thanks for sharing the memories.
Thank you, Paul. Not much video, hopefully enjoyable.
Beautiful footage. That was a once in a lifetime adventure for you and Mrs. Kraken. At least you have the video footage (as we older people used to say, home movies) to reflect on, years later. And so can we. Thank you.
That's a mighty kind reply. It really was a trip of our lifetime. I'm glad a few enjoyed following along. :)
You did an amazing job capturing everything. Pottsy and I are blessed to have you both in our lives.
Friends are the pillars of our lives, embodying companionship, support, and understanding. They are the ones who stand by us through thick and thin, offering a shoulder to lean on in times of need and celebrating our victories with genuine joy. True friends foster an environment of trust, acceptance, and mutual respect, where we can be our authentic selves without fear of judgment. Shared experiences, laughter, and meaningful conversations strengthen the bonds of friendship, creating memories that last a lifetime. Friends inspire us to grow, challenge us to be better versions of ourselves, and remind us that we are never alone on life's journey.
You are both more than friends to us - you are Family🥰
We cannot wait for our next adventure together 🥰
I can only wish I could put into words what you share. During this journey and posting on it, it has been stressful. As I want to represent Oz in the light your beautiful country deserves. I am my own worst critic, so I double my abilities. Thank you so much for being in our lives.
An AMAZING adventure and the trip of a lifetime!! THANK YOU for showing us the WONDERFUL people and sights of Australia !!! Cheers Mate!!
I'm glad you enjoyed seeing this journey in this series. Thank you for the support.
@@KrakensGarageandAdventures
that looks amazing over there. Glad you had so much fun and met some awesome people
It truly was a trip of a lifetime.
Fantastic series Eric!!! Thanks for sharing. Truly a once in a lifetime trip. So any good people in this world.
Amazing people! I'm glad you enjoyed seeing this journey in this series. Thank you for the support.
Well now I want a king fisher. Absolutely stunning looking country!
I thank you for following along on this journey. It is very much appreciated, Ben.
We were all so fortunate to have had spent time with you Eric.
Hopefully we'll see you State side at some stage
We'd be honored to host you if you travel east. Thank you for taking the time to see us. Most importantly, thank you for being in my life.
Great episode. Thanks for sharing Eric. 👊✌️👍
Thank you, Rick. This wad a bit long and not much action. I tried my best with what I had to work with. Thanks for your patronage towards my content.
So very cool .There could never have been a better ambassador to represent the United States of America . You are one cool character good sir .Excellent video .Cheers my friend 🍻
Thank you, very kind of you to say. I wouldn't go that far. I did my best to take care of many folks on this journey during our stay. Thanks for commenting. :)
Great video Eric! What an amazing trip you both had. Thanks for sharing !😊❤
I'm glad you enjoyed seeing this journey in this series. Thank you for the support.
This trip would have been incredible without meeting so many great people, the fact you were able to be with such incredible people just took the trip to another level!! Congratulations on such an amazing trip!!!!
Thank you so much. We had an amazing trip. The incredible folks of Oz went over and above for us. I'm still giddy about that trip.
Those colors!!!! Excellent editing Eric 🤘🤙
Thank you, Greg. I sure did love your recent upload of Hawaii. You have talent. You just don't know it yet.
Good stuff
Thank you, good sir.
Good one Eric, lots of great memories there. I'm sure there were many, many, more times where you didn't wish to intrude with a camera but are special memories for you both.
I'm rather ashamed of this video being a slide show. I think you get why it is. Never the less, it's documenting an epic chapter in our lives to be enjoyed for many years to come. Thank you for the kind words. ❤️🦑
Classy as ever Eric. Looking at all the pictures of these guys n gals makes me think it would be great being at a party with them all 😁
My kind of folks.
When i was editing that part, I so enjoyed seeing all the smiles on everyone's faces. Thank you for the kind words, Duncan.
Nice video Eric thanks for sharing.
Thank you, Larry, for stopping by. Ride safe.
Mmmmm, I think I just got coffee hypnotized 🤩
The coffee ☕️ was amazing! 🙌
Miss ya Eric.
I miss you too, brother. More than you'll ever know.
Was nice to wake up to this ,, good memories and took our minds of the horror of the weekend.. nice one mate.
Heal up. Tomorrow is another day for you and Jax. Things happen for a reason. You have a clean canvas to paint your next chapter of your life on. Make it happen!
Great video Eric! I love all those pics at the end!!!
I have to day, when I was editing the outro, the smile on everyone's face was amazing in those pics. Thanks for stopping by.
Trip of a lifetime 😎👍👍
Indeed, I will never for get it. Thanks for stopping by, brother.
Beautiful flowers! How would you describe the coffee? It does look yummy and the coffee shop looks pretty cool!
Robust, flavorful, full body, yet very smooth.
What an amazing trip. Can’t wait to get there myself. Probably won’t be able to do Western Australia unfortunately.
You're going to have the trip of your life. Thank you for tuning in on this series on Oz.
Oz sure has beautiful scenery and people. So...coast to coast Canada next ?? lol. Great vid, man. :)
I should make a trip to Canada! Thank you so much for following along on this journey, Randy. You are very much appreciated.
Poor little birdie...
I thought for sure he was a goner.. I'm happy he flew away!
You're contributing to my geographic education. Australia oscillates between a mere outline on a map to an otherworldly place full of dangerous snakes, crocs and spiders. The video puts a face to the people and a better rounded portrait of the land. Seems far, far way.
I'm continually impressed with people's reaction to you. It's not just that you're interacting with good people but they recognize the same in you.
There's definitely a melancholy of meeting people and knowing that soon they'll be on the other side of the planet.
It truly is a small world...
I don't know why these goof folks are so kindly to me. All I do in life is try to treat folks with kindness and respect.
It truly is a small world. I'm amazed at the connections I've made by switching on a camera in my garage.
Thank you for your heartfelt reply, Steve.
An amazing trip mate. So sorry we couldn’t catch up 😞
No worries, BB! The size of your country has something to do with that. 😉 We spent a third of our holiday in airports , just to see what little we got to see. If I make it back, I'll be in Taz for sure. Cheers, my friend.
Looks like you had a Kraken good time Eric.
We had the time of our lives. I'm so glad we made this trip. It will be one to be remembered.
G’day Eric, a spot on representation of what WA has to offer. Wish I could have showed you around Newcastle but time has us all by the balls! 😂.
So glad you look back fondly on our country and proud that you visited us. It was a pleasure to meet you and Lisa in person and hope one day we can return the favour.
Also I know our measurements must be unique to you so FYI Busselton jetty is 2 Kilometres long, ie 2000 Metres.
Gotcha, thank you for pointing that out.
It truly was a trip of our lifetime. I'm so glad we took the leap of faith and "just went." Thank you for being part of our journey.
Felt absolutely treated with you both being here, would love it if you could visit every year - but I hope I can get to the USA in 2025 and see you there. Happy days mate, beautiful video and a beautiful time. Thank you mate.
If you're on the east. You have a private guestroom and bath waiting for you.
Thank you so much for being in my life.
Got the feeling you haven't seen the last of Australia my friend :)
We shall see 👀 I'm glad we took this trip.
My neighbor has an Emu. Are they good to eat? Just asking for a friend. 😃👍
I know their eggs are. Not sure about the meat. Probably tastes like chicken 🐔!
☝️😊
Winner, winner, chicken 🐓 dinner!
👍👍👍🇦🇺
Thank you for stopping by! 🙌
🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾
Thanks for stopping by, Nore. 😎
Great episode Eric. Very genuine, heartfelt portrayal of your visit to Straya… South Western Australia in particular.
That Brian Taylor guy is a good fella hey. Proud to have him as my brother from the same mother 😂.
Wish I had the chance to meet you while you were in Busselton.
Best wishes
I have said this in probably every video you have put out from Australia that it’s awesome just how much people care about you and respect you to put a hold on their lives to spend the time. That’s not only a testament to you but to the kind of people they are. I am so happy that you and the Mrs got the opportunity to visit with all those people. Looks like me saying it was an amazing trip is a huge understatement!!!
That's a very kind thing to say, GB. I appreciate you more than you know. Thank you for the support on the Oz adventure. It was the most epic trip of my lifetime.
What a blessing to share this video and the other ones before this one with all the pics etc. it feels like I went to Kangaroo land myself. 🫡🇺🇸🌵
Thanks for sharing that experience Eric👌👌
I'm so glad a few enjoyed it. Not much video, more sharing the sights, and admiration for the good folks of Australia. I hope you and your beautiful wife are fairing well. 🦑
