I love how excited Dorothy gets to tell a story or say something, but anytime her younger brother knows what she’s going to say and asks to be the one to say it, she lets them say it instead. She is such a selfless sweet soul.
46 minute video! 🤩🎉 POV: When you’ve seen so many BLF videos that you automatically hit the thumbs up button before even watching, cause you know you’re going to love it. ❤
Garrett....your editing, music choices...EVERYTHING, are perfection. Thank you for sharing your beautiful family and their incredible adventures with us. I feel like I've travelled the world even though at 52 I have never actually been able to travel anywhere. For that, I thank you from the bottom of my heart!
I have been “going” on your adventures for several years now and live “vicariously” (I’m 80) with you on your journeys. I purchased Jessica’s (signed) book and (amazing), because it is on my coffee table, my grandchildren devour it every time they are here with me. They now are talking about their BUCKET LIST. I am so happy that my grandchildren are excited about a world that affords them adventure. Of all the words that could possibly describe the Gee family I truly think it is INSPIRATIONAL. Thank you….
Another incredibly beautiful vlog! You really captured the sheer, raw , beauty of nature in action. I'm so glad you were able to make such monumental memories together as a family. Seven continents conquered, two polar plunges completed, and enough photos and videos to last a lifetime. Your children's children will be blessed to learn of, and see all that you have done!😊❤️
"Long before I ever saw the frost upon your face, I was haunted by your beauty and it drew me to this place . . . in Antarctica!" - Antarctica by Al Stewart Looks like a splendid time and such a memorable experience! Thanks for sharing with us! Much love from Kansas❤️💙💚
@@TheBucketListFamily Too many to choose from! Watching you all take your first step on Antarctica was definitely special! It was definitely serendipitous for you to see whales in Antarctica! But my absolute favorite is the penguin voiceover :) Definitely some Cali vibes with that!
Wow this is so awesome and made me so emotional watching you all step onto Antarctica. Seeing how grateful you all are and humble to be loving the life you live is truly so inspiring and why I love watching your videos so much. You’re an amazing family!
I tell ya, you are the most "BEAUTIFUL" family I know. Your timeless videos and the work you put into them are just amazing. When a person can feel like they are right there with you, its just an AMAZING feeling!! Your kids teach me so much and to see them in the classroom and answering the questions is fantastic!! You are a very blessed family and I am very bless to be one of your subscribers!! GO NAT GEO!! Jessica, I love your book and cant wait for more to come! Thank you again for everything you do for us here on the site!! XOXO
I think it's great that you've chosen Neil Armstrong's quote from when he landed on the moon and compared it to how you perceived the seventh continent, Antarctica 💚
I think this is one of your best videos ever because Antarctica is such a special place to be , all the photos and videos are so magical , so powerful, and wonderful !!!! Thank you so much for sharing your experience with the world . Your whole family is so brave and so special !!! I love watching your videos ❤️
I'm watching this from Cambodia!!! But I'm from the UK and I want to say a huge thank you to Garrett and the whole family for your videos. I've literally grown up watching you guys wishing I could experience a slice of what you've done and I am right now!! You heavily inspired to have the confidence to backpack solo at 19 :). This videos perfectly encapsulates everything you do for your family, for nature and all of us. This was very emotional seeing you complete 7 continents and I feel grateful and blessed to be able to watch your family grow.
Well said!! I'm glad to know that I wasn't the only one who had an emotional reaction to this video! Garrett has a way of drawing in viewer's emotions with his incredible ability to incorporate perfectly fitting music, family bonding and memories, education in nature, all combined with fantastic cinematography and editing!
All the excitement from the mountain of Penguins, to seeing the largest Glacier in the World to the Whales and all the knowledge imparted to the Children, but the very end, the Arctic polar plunge and now, the infamous, “YES’’ with the arm, which will probably be repeated to the end of time🥰what a wonderful adventure, thank you once again, Garrett, Jess, Dorothy, Manilla and Cali for taking us along for the ride🌎🌍🌏the sweetest of blessings to each of you🙏🏻😇🕊
@@TheBucketListFamily probably 11:07 as it just really says a lot about your family, and because i think that more family's should have something like that. But 37:20 was also absolutely awesome, i mean its a whale that just casually swims under your boat!! But honestly every part of every video is always my favorite part😊
My favorite part was watching your family do the polar plunge. Its moments like these where you are out of your comfort zone and you encourage everyone that makes such a difference. I love your family and the fact that you do everything together is amazing. God bless you guys.
not me crying my eyes out when you stepped foot on this continent! Been following you all for almost 8 years now and I felt like I was on that continent with you all. Such a beautiful video as always
When I think of your family, I think of how special you all are and how brave to do what you do! I thank you for all you share with us and always pray that God is with you where ever you travel and protects you. Peace and blessings from Vermont!❤
Watching from regional Victoria, Australia ❤🦘🦘 I shouldn’t be surprised that I’m crying within the first 10 minutes again. Absolutely beautiful and inspiring. Thank you for pouring your heart into this art and most importantly, treasured family memories.
This is so great! It's so emotional watching you achieve all your goals both as travelers and as a family! You made me feel like I took that first step with you! Your way of sharing your experiences it's just so authentic and meaningful that makes me wow every time ❤❤
At the beginning with the quote "you care more about what you know" it is so true and i really would love to get out and see the world. So far i have only been to three continents. Your videos are so inspiring and i really love the excitement everyone has. I cant wait for more of your adventures.💚
40:25 is hilarious , you don’t love it, “I do! And I don’t” creating that mental toughness! Great video, inspiring to love the moment you are in. Video puts me in a beautiful state of mind
I can only imagine what it feels like and how freeing it would be to travel the world and all it's glory. These video's are amazing!! Thank you for sharing!
The best family ever. The kids are the cutest, sweetest, smartest, bravest, and amazing kids. I would go almost anywhere, if I could. I have always wanted to go on a safari. Thank you for all of your hard work filming and editing all of these videos. It has been amazing. I really hope this isn't the last video. I hope ya'll stick around for a long time. I wish I was in these kids classes when they shared their information they have learned on these trips. They have learned a lot. I hope and pray they always stay as close as they are now. Love you guys.❤ Thanks again for all the excitement and educational aspect of your trips. BTW, I am from the NW Florida Panhandle.
I'm in Arizona and I am so overjoyed with your videos. Everytime I see you all walking and it plays "where we are I don't know where we are" I start to cry and then smile so hard through the whole video. I am so impressed with your family. I am 58 and was never able to have children but if I did I would love them to be like you and your littles.❤❤❤❤❤
I am always always so excited to watch your videos and always in tears when it ends. Your experiences are so beautiful and I am so grateful that you share them with us. So wonderful to see the world through 5 different perspectives in one family. I am blessed to have found you all and you are blessed to do what you do. Thank you. ❤️💙💚
WOW!!! Such an amazing video! I honestly cannot choose one favorite part. I don't know how you did it but you made me feel so many different emotions in one video! You truly do an amazing job editing! Love, love, loved this! ❤️💙💚
every time i watch your videos i feel like im on top of the world, or atleast will be. these bring me intense gratitude and joy, seriously inspirational, all i want is to have a family and to travel the world and just purely live, this is my literal dream ❤ one day i will have this, im willing towork hard and build this lifestyle
I love love love watching you and your family. It's has been awesome watching the kids come and grown up. As parents, you two rock it hard. I look forward to living vicariously through your family. I'm looking forward to your new content. Thanx for living to the fullest.
OMG THiS is a gift . To you to me and to the world. Watching from Buenos Aires Argentina. You touch my heart and soul. I laugh, i cried emotionally and cant stop smilinv watching you one more time. Thank u from the bottom of my heart to you all and your sleepless nights so we can enjoy this Extremely beauty❤❤❤❤❤
Oh I forgot…my 7 month old grandson loves your book Jess, he wouldn’t let me put it down! Plus, when he saw you, he would scream, laugh and try to grab your picture! It was the cutest! ❤
A split second before you guys jumped in the water, Dorthy shook her head "no" like she was thinking; 'Why am I doing this?' 42:12. Great job all of you! Your family has seen more in a short time than most people see in their lifetimes. Memories to last a lifetime.
oh my gosh you guys are awesome! I love your family! i was laughing and crying, I am so envious of your adventure. Memories for a lifetime for sure. thanks for sharing with us.
Something about every single one of your videos has me tearing up every time! Im not sure if its the pure beauty of the places you visit, or the pure beauty of the love in your family, either way, it makes me want to explore anywhere I can! I have never travelled aside from one cruise, or small interstate trips, theres so many cool places here in Australia and ive seen none of it!
It is because of your beautiful family that I'm able to see places of the world that I may never go to. Thank you for sharing. I'm in awe of all the beautiful places your family has been to. Congrats on reaching your 7th continent. I love seeing all the wild life . Again thank you bucket list family. My favorite part of the video was seeing the whale
I’m from Athens, Greece 🇬🇷 , and your videos are 💥AWESOME💥 I think , when I watch them, it’s a real movie!! You guys should get an award for best videos and content on RU-vid! KUDUS KUDUS KUDUS TO ALL OF YOU!👍👍👍👍👍👍👍♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
What a beautiful blessing to be able to do this as a family. Had me in tears a lot of this video very beautiful moments. I’m from Canada 🇨🇦. And the top places on my bucket list are Greece and Hawaii 💜💜
Wow, just wow! Garrett this was awesome to watch...the music, the voiceovers 😂 the footage, the LOVE!! Congratulations on the plunge, you guys!! And thank you for these incredible videos, Garrett!
Garrett you really outdid yourself on this one! Thank you so much for taking the time to put together this amazing video. I smiled, laughed and had tears in my eyes honestly couldn’t have enjoyed it more.❤
I think I'm one of those people that care even though I can't travel. I had an SCI in 2009 so couldn't travel even within the US after that but I'm an artist and I know people in the art world that live in most of the countries of the world. But I care so much about climate change, about maintaining our democracy, and about equality of all peoples (no matter their race, religion, or gender) that I feel compelled to shout it out in my social media. Maybe that's why I love you guys so much. Looking at your travels makes me feel like I have traveled. I'm living vicariously through your videos and I appreciate you all SO MUCH. Been waiting for this 3rd video so thank you so much for showing us the icebergs and for caring that they are melting away and for showing up for all of us and representing. You are an awesome family!! 💛💛💛💛💛
Hello from Canada and the top of my bucket list was New Zealand for decades. Now that I have spent 6 weeks there, my new top 3 bucket list countries are Antarctica, Morocco and Japan
I love RU-vid. I just finished spending the weekend at Merrie Monarch in Hilo, HI.on K5 & RU-vid and transitioned to Bucket Family in Antarctica. This was another place I am not likely to go at 84, but much appreciated your taking me along.
i too would've raised my fist and yelled yeah! after a polar plunge 😂 thank you bucket list family for your incredible videos, they give me so much inspiration, motivation and peace.
I think the polar plunge was my favorite - probably very few people (let alone kids!) that have done a polar plunge at the North Pole and Antarctica!! And Garret's encouragment before and after...offering his body heat & instilling the calm mindsight before and then after making sure everyone is ok and helping everyone out of the water ❤💙💚💛 all around beautiful video. I WILL see it myself one day 🫶🏻
What a cool treasure to keep for yourself and kids to reminisce on forever. Totally worth the 3 nights, ammiright? Been watching since week 2 & I don’t intend of stopping any time soon! Jess- LOVED getting your book with the note. 12/10 family
Commenting from Germany, Hesse state and on my bucket list still is New Zealand an the US. I already hooked off Australia which I visited 2017/18 over new years eve in Sydney and it was incredible !!! I just LOVE watching your VLOGS 😃 you're such an inspiring family, holding together in every situation and every member knows it ! I just can't stop smiling and sometimes sobbing when you tell something moving. Keep up that great work !!! It's really awesom 😇🙏💛
Shout out from TUSCANY, ITALY!!!! I know it's all obvious, but I just have to say that I love the stories, I love the emotions, I love the commentary, I love the editing that is just CRAZY exceptional. At the top of my bucket list right now is a GASTRONOMICAL JOURNEY THROUGH SPAIN. 100%!! This is my goal, my objective, my mission, together with my amazing husband, just road-tripping our way through the delicacies. I'm going to do it. If I know nothing else, I can tell you that I do know that I will do this!
Okay I LOOVE this video. WOW. Amazing, seriously. The editing is is fantastic. I love how everyone’s personalities, really shine through this video, and that we get to see more of the “laid back” things, like when you were at the dinner table and everyone was goofing around. It’s just a really really great video, with such good vibes😍🤩❤️💙💚
C O N G R A T U L A T I O N S what a great experience for your family... i have managed 6 continents and now thanks to you i can witness the beauty of Antarctica... always a dream... thanks for manifesting the Lucky 7! Blessings to you all. 🌸🌎🌍🌏🌸
We just traveled all day, and I still had to stay up to see this video! It is amazing, so much joy and maybe a few "allergies". Your family is incredible and your videos are stunning! Congratulations bucket list family on your 7th continent!!!
Hi I’m from England currently traveling in Thailand. My bucket list is extensive, maybe Japan next time. I teared up for every video you posted of the Antarctica series, I’m just felt like I was there with you, learning with you and sharing your adventures. Thank you BucketListFamily ❤ Wonderful videos
Thanks for sharing this great adventure! The gift you share with us all by showing your travels is one I’m so thankful for! Thank you for showing me parts of the world I’ll likely never get to see in person! A bucket list trip for me would be to see the Northern Lights!
Hi the bucket list family! My name is Lyne and I am 12 years old. I'm from Quebec city in Canada 🇨🇦 I love your videos and I have been watching them all even before Calihan was born. I also did an oral presentation at my school about you guys. I love you so muchh ❤❤ and I just want to tell you thank you for all the joy and love that you bring in your videos❤❤ Thank you soo muchh
Another amazing adventure. I look forward so much to coming along on all these journeys with your beautiful family. The videos are so perfect and makes me feel like I am close to being there. Thank you so much for sharing these adventures and most of all your amazing family.
@TheBucketListFamily: Never settle. Never allow the mundane times of life to divide and conquer your family. The nitpicking trials of being a family or a husband and wife (or the stupid arguments that can creep in and destroy our relationships). It’s usually the settling that makes even the strongest families break apart. Especially when the kids become teens etc etc etc. It definitely gets harder. So never settle! Always lead your extraordinary lives!! Always keep the passion and love you show in all your videos alive! I love that your family is so full of love! And that you all shine bright for all the world to see. Even when you slow down, don’t settle. Your family is too beautiful and priceless to let that wonderful flame die. ❤️ Blessings from (not) Antarctica lol
3:01 why does something as majestic, so breathtakingly beautiful, so awesome, bring tears to my eyes, thank you for sharing this incredible awe inspiring experience ❣️ Watching from Hampshire UK ❤️💚💙
There's a hilarious family memory that we have on video of my dad. Your kids will laugh about that clip for the rest of their lives!! Love your family, an inspiration for my life and hopes for the future.
I so much enjoyed every thing about this video . I hope I get to experience some of it when I visit Antarctica in January. Thanks for the heads up , Gee family!❣️
I love seeing the world through the eyes of your family. Thank you for another beautiful video… they are a little bitter sweet now days. To quote Dorothy, “I do. But I don’t “. I love each video but I know we are getting closer and closer to 300. I loved the voice over for the penguin highways. I am watching from Wellington, New Zealand. The top of my international bucket list is seeing where the monarch butterfly’s winter in Mexico and my kiwi bucket list to go to Stewart Island and see kiwis in the wild as I have only seen them in zoos.
I'm here in Ventura California when you guys did that polar plunge at the end oh my gosh I literally got goosebumps so wonderful to watch The whole thing
Thank you for your videos. I have loved traveling with you and your sweet family. My husband is in a nursing home so we can no longer travel, so it is wonderful to see the places that you go. Thank you again.
