-Find your cluster IP:
+It may take a moment, but your deployment will soon show up when you run:
 
 ```shell
-minikube ip
+kubectl get services hello-minikube

-Either navigate to <your ip>:8080 in your web browser, or let minikube do it for you:
+The easiest way to access this service is to let minikube launch a web browser for you:
 
 ```shell
 minikube service hello-minikube
 ```
 
-To access a LoadBalancer application, use the "minikube tunnel" feature. Here is an example deployment:
+Alternatively, use kubectl to forward the port:

+```shell
+kubectl port-forward service/hello-minikube 8780:8080

+To access a LoadBalancer deployment, use the "minikube tunnel" command. Here is an example deployment:
 
 ```shell
 kubectl create deployment balanced --image=k8s.gcr.io/echoserver:1.4  
-kubectl expose deployment balanced --type=LoadBalancer --port=8081

+In another window, start the tunnel to create a routable IP for the 'balanced' deployment:
 
 ```shell
 minikube tunnel
 ```
 
-Access the application using the "service" command, or your web browser. If you are using macOS, minikube will also forward DNS requests for you: [http://balanced.default.svc.cluster.local:8081/](http://balanced.default.svc.cluster.local:8081/)
+To find the routable IP, run this command and examine the `EXTERNAL-IP` column:
+
+`kubectl get services balanced`
+
+Your deployment is now available at <EXTERNAL-IP>:8000
