A Nate Buchanan vlog titled "Change of plans!" documenting a road trip from Myrtle Beach to Nashville (via Knoxville). The vlog records travel logistics (departure around 6 AM, ~12-hour drive, Google Maps ETA 5:04), a Knoxville lunch stop at Jason's Deli, brief personal interactions, a discussion of camera equipment (Sony 16mm f/2.8 prime plus converter to 12mm, bought used for about $300), and attendance at a Nashville Predators Game 7 playoff match with enthusiastic city-wide support.

Take me to Hendersonville, Tennessee.
Getting directions to Hendersonville.
It is about.
6Am we are pulling out of Myrtle beach.
Turn right onto State Highway 15.
What are you getting? I don't know. Me either. Can I get. All right. Thank you very much.
Is that it?
It's a small bag.
We're starting the day off very unhealthy.
I just can't wait to get on the road again.
We're not super proud of this decision.
Can't see anything.
Throw in the white bir.
We just arrived back in Knoxville. We are stopping to meet my brother and his wife again for lunch. This means we're, like, six and a half hours into the drive. We have, like, three hours left. We're gonna try not to spend four hours here this time. So we get home before midnight. We fall asleep getting out of the car.
Does he bark?
I don't think he makes noises.
He doesn't bark unless he's left alone, but. Can you get out right here? He's so funny. No. Welcome back to the vlog. Is there anything about to say this time since I didn't let you say anything last time?
Maybe that we're Dusty and Sarah.
Yeah. This is my wife. We live in Knoxville.
That's it.
You have a Jeep and a cool dog.
Oh, your door's still shut.
What?
Oh, my goodness.
Those might be backwards. I think.
We stopped at one of my favorite places in Knoxville that I ate at in college all the time. Jason's Deli. I got a huge salad with a ton of veggies to make up for my cookout milkshake that I had for dinner last night. So I know I said we were being healthy, but my other favorite part of Jason's Deli is there's free ice cream cones.
Cheers.
This is the best one I've ever done. Normally, mine are all lopsided.
Mmm.
All right, see you Thursday. Have fun at the game. Always good to see Sarah and Dusty now. We're about to head three back to Nashville, so.
Sorry.
So the original plan was to go home super slowly. We were gonna pass through this really awesome town called Asheville in North Carolina and then stop here again in Knoxville and spend the night. But our change is planned. But our plans changed, and now we're trying to get back to Nashville as soon as possible.
We had tickets to the Predators hockey game tonight. Like, really good tickets. And I'm gonna be taking you with me. They're in the playoffs. They're in, like, almost the last round of the playoffs. It's the furthest the Predators have ever been.
It's our Nashville hockey team.
Some of you might not care about hockey, but I'm so pumped about this game tonight. So we're beelining straight home all the way from Myrtle beach today. Also, I wanted to get some feedback on what you thought about the new lens. You probably recognize you can see, like, so much, a lot more. So we've been using that lens exclusively for the past week. So in the comment section below, let us know what you think. We just put our lens that we normally use back on for the very first time. And because I know that some people that watch this vlog, like, care about camera stuff, I thought I would tell you what we're using. I don't know how to get this.
So it's actually a lens and a converter. So this is the Sony 2.8 16 millimeter lens. It's just like a little prime lens. And then this converter takes it from the 16 millimeters down to 12 millimeters.
We really enjoyed it. The only thing I have to complain about is you can't zoom.
What's a problem lens? That's not the point. I know.
I'm just saying that's why we like this lens, because it zooms.
But for us, like, yeah, I guess that is, like the reason we would switch back to this lens over this one. And I think we'll use them in combo moving forward. But two really good things about this lens for us is 1, it's an f2.8, so the aperture is lower, which means it can let more light into the lens. So now, like, our shots in the dark, like, our low light shots should look better. And the wide angle when we, like, walk into a hotel room or an Airbnb or something, now you'll be able to see more than just like this narrow little tunnel.
I feel like we should apologize for how squinty we are. It's like perfect noon o' clock sunlight right now.
Yeah, always noise and construction happening at UT's campus like we told you before.
But we'll. We'll link this lens combo in the description below in case you want to check it out. Because I'm really excited about it and, like, used off the Internet I paid $300 for.
So if you want it, use our Amazon link and you can help us out. Or if you want to buy anything.
On Amazon, back to Nashville.
Google Maps is so smart.
Google Maps said we would get here at 5:04, and that was two hours ago. And we pulled in the driveway exactly 504.
How does she know?
Took about 12 hours this time instead of like 16 the last time. But that is a long time in the car.
It was a long day, but we.
Made it home in plenty of time for the Predators game.
And it took like a two hour nap.
Kara slept on me. Like.
Thanks for diving.
Well, this is where we're parting ways. I'm going to change into my Predators apparel and go to the game with my dad.
It was a great week in Myrtle beach with Heath and Alyssa, and it was fun to travel in the US For a little bit.
It was really nice traveling with other people that work and travel at the same time. We need to figure out how we can do more of that.
Wonder if today's vlog was super boring because we know exactly how to drive on the roads in the U.S. we know all the social norms.
Really, all we did was just get in the car and drive straight. Stop at Knoxville for lunch, and then keep driving.
Maybe something exciting will happen at the.
Game at all intentions, especially stopping and flying the drone. And then we hit traffic, and we were going to be late getting here to go the game. So that didn't happen.
Sorry.
This is the life.
Welcome back to the vlog. Hey. Hey. Go, friends.
So we just got to Nashville, and we're heading into the game. For those of you who familiar with hockey, this is the third series of the playoff. It's game seven. So if the Predators win tonight, they win the series and they go to the Stanley cup, which is way further than the Predators have ever been. The town definitely has Stanley cup fever. Everybody's going nuts. Everything is decked out in gold and blue.
Good evening and welcome to Bridget.
Oh, say can you see by the dawn's early light.
Yeah.
It'S time to get loud it's time to get proud it's time to make some noise for the boys. Let's play hockey.
It's the end of the first period, we're up to one. Everybody's going nuts, and all the people you see behind me are sitting outside watching it on screen. They might completely build up the streets.
There.
I don't think I ordered your hash browns. And hash browns. I can't order it here. You don't? Yes, you can.
Is there an order of hash browns on that? Okay, we got your hash browns. Yay.
If you're gonna go to McDonald's, you might as well go all out and get the hash browns.
