Another great St Pete video, glad you liked the Turkish/Kurdish cafe, we'll have to find that one on our next travels, I wonder if they do Turkish tea - which is amazing (we're not fans of Turkish coffee) ...though interestingly my Turkish/Kurdish husband hasn't ever come across pistachio coffee lol.

@Explorcation 6 месяцев назад

Yes we loved that place! The Baba Ghanoush and Kurdish Coffee were our favorites. That's crazy though that your husband has never come across pistachio coffee. From our conversation with the bakery employee, we would have thought it was a very common thing!

@Explorcation 6 месяцев назад

We can't believe that with our several visits to Motorworks Brewing we had never tried the Proper Meats food truck. If we knew how good it was, we surely would have!

Hi Jamie and Skyler, I am planning our 2024 winter vacation in FL. I'm watching a lot of your videos (you have 233) I've watched many of them (more than once). I'm taking notes to visit places you have recommended. Very clever of you to create "What's New in '23" it is very helpful I noticed your subs is growing to 31.4K. Excellent work. Good luck.

@Explorcation 6 месяцев назад

Wow, we actually had no idea we were up to 233 videos. I guess we've been doing this for a while! We really appreciate the feedback on the What's New series. We've been doing it for over three years now and it's definitely been a big part of our channels' growth. We're really proud of how far our channel has come, but we really hope to take it much further. With great supporters like you, we know that we can!

@joannepritzl8211 4 месяца назад

Hello. We really enjoy your videos. We were wondering if you have any suggestions on hotel stays in St Petersburg. Budget friendly. 😊

@Explorcation 4 месяца назад

We're really glad you are enjoying our content! Regarding hotel stays, we unfortunately are far from experts on that, as since we live here we never stay in hotels. When we used to live in Sarasota and would visit St Pete we could often find AirBNBs for well under $100 per night, but sadly I think those days are long gone.

Today (January 20, 2024), i saw that the temperature in Saint Petersburg was 2 degrees Farenheith.....Wow, i didn't know temperature could go so low in Saint Pete! 😮

@Explorcation 5 месяцев назад

Definitely not 2 degrees ferenheit, maybe 2 degrees Celsius with wind-chill? Regardless, it's very cold for Florida standards and we are definitely having to bundle up this weekend.

@BobCarlson 6 месяцев назад

Great video as always! I see you are getting really good at the graphics. Makes the videos even more enjoyable. And as I know a bit about putting graphics in videos, I know if I were to recreate this video it would take me a year. But more importantly I need to plan a trip back to St Pete

@Explorcation 6 месяцев назад

Yeah, it's always a challenge to see how much we can edit a video and still get one out every (or at least most weeks). As we get more efficient at it we are able to add more to each video... but we still dream of the day that we can hire an editor and not have to do any of it!
