Portland Maine is absolutely beautiful!! The food looked beyond delicious,no wonder I’m always hungry after your videos.😉. I love lighthouses!! Thank you for showing it.

Heading that way slowly - the food looks fabulous! We have no plans and no reservations - hopefully we will find cool spots.

That's awesome! So beautiful here. Thanks for watching Emanoel!

[@summersojourner]

Far and away the better Portland is this one in Maine. Thanks for sharing this gem.

[@dougod9407]

Thank you for posting these videos! They gave my wife and I some great ideas for spending time in Maine for our 28th wedding anniversary (Oct 2024). The Holy Donut was a great stop and the bacon/cheddar was our favorite.

[@NewstateNomads]

Holy Donut is still one of our top donuts from our travels. Glad you got to try one (or two, three 😂), and again Happy Anniversary! 👍🏻 - Howard

[@dougjohnson3494]

Excellent work as always! Thanks and Godspeed!

[@katrreenna5430]

[@Thesaltymedic36]

Yeah I need to get back up there someday. It’s such a nice place and great people. Just don’t stick around In the winter 🥶 ❄️

[@lorirouleau4303]

My hometown!! Loved this video guys, such fun to see my home though eyes of others. The summers are amazing and busy, the winters...well those are another story! I wish I could have run into you guys while you were here. Looking forward to the next videos as you make your way up north. 😃

[@kfotherg4800]

Old Orchard Beach is one of our favorite places. Dickinson’s Candy is incredible!!

[@bethb5076]

Wow! Looks wonderful! Thanks for sharing!

[@sethphillips9288]

So exciting to see someone reviewing a state I love dearly!! I live in OOB and its wicked laid back here. If you guys are heading up down east you need to check out willow bake shop, and go see Andre the seal! I have so many places I would love to see you guys review in Maine, how long will you be here? Enjoy this great state!!!!

[@odessaknows3783]

Can't wait to see the rest of your trip guys! OOB is a really fun summer spot. I live about 2hrs from there. I'm actually from downeast by the Canadian border, Close to Eastport. We have Pirates Festival there, One year Johnny Depp came to the festival, What a great time!!!! Hope you guys consider visiting the Abbe museum when you head to B.H❤️

[@chrishoward4546]

Great video!!! Thank you for all your hard work!!!

[@MatthewSmith-cv7op]

Great job, I used both this and your Kennebunk video as my guide when I visited Down East this past October. I look forward to using your Bar Harbor video as a guide when I visit northern Maine next year!

[@karlamartins2761]

That lobster tour was amazing! The Lighthouse is my favorite. I’ve never been to Old Orchard Beach.

[@donnap4703]

Just went to the Holy Dount! Best donut ever!!!!! Thank you for recommendations!

[@FittingInAdventure]

Happy to see you back on the road and sharing your adventures!

[@NewstateNomads]

Thanks so much!! So glad to be back 🙌😉❤️

[@virginialemm864]

Oh, ok you guys! Food, food and MORE food! Lobster happens to be my all time favorite meal, so guess what and where is being added to our ever-growing bucket list! I swear I put on five pounds every time I watch one of your videos. You both look healthy and happy…stay that way. Would truly love to meet you two someday…we have a lot in common: fun, food, rving, animals, and general travel! Take care, as always, love ya, Virginia

[@braddenton4729]

Great job on the video. You guys do a really good job on the description of the town throwing a little history,a little color and a little food. Stay safe on the road thanks Brad

[@davidvelazquez2313]

We watch some video are amazing. Keep work your are excellent

[@NewstateNomads]

Thank you so much David! ❤️🙌

[@tarac5137]

I was at the Holy Donut! I can't believe I was at one of your recommendations before I saw it on a video. Yum!. Judging by the flowers blooming, I don't think our visits were too far apart. I didn't see too much more of Portland, my dog is not great at city touring or waiting in the van. But it is super cute and I'd go back. (P.S. I was at Grom in Jacksonville the other week. Twice! Thanks for that tasty review.)

[@johnjunge6989]

Great info, will have to put Maine on my list to go, if old age don't stop me. ha

[@daviscrt]

Great information video. Thanks Don

[@rv2travel]

Great trip! We ordered the Lobster roll kit from The Crab Shack. Thanks for sharing

[@jayhulrs1435]

Great video with lots of info. Definitely want to check out maine

You are making me hungry again. Good vidio

[@jasonellison2227]

Great content on Maine

Thanks, Jason! Glad you're on the journey with us. 👍 -Howard

Thank you. I've put more places on my list of stops🙂👍

[@NewstateNomads]

Woohoo!!! That's the goal 😉🙌

[@davemaurer9709]

@@NewstateNomads I'm super excited. This will literally be a trip of a life time for me. And honestly you inspired me so thank you❤️ FYI I live in Wisconsin.

[@iamfaithfullyhis]

Delicious trip! 🦞🌊

[@wvoutdoorsman5326]

We’ve been anxiously waiting for this😁👌

[@NewstateNomads]

Hopefully it was with the wait!!! 😅❤️🙌

[@pglen6042]

Enjoyed the video, thank you.

[@NewstateNomads]

Yay!! So glad ❤️☺️

[@JohnsDeb]

Great video!!

[@NewstateNomads]

Thanks so much Debbie!

[@dougf7613]

Are you guys going to hit rockport or bar harbor? Were heading up pretty much your same path in 3 weeks ending at bar harbor. Thx for the videos! We're planning to hit Kenny and Portland as well

[@jeremygourde9880]

There’s so much more to Maine than the tourist traps of Portland, Kennebunkport, bar harbor. Real wild Maine is above Baxter state park.

[@NewstateNomads]

Hey Doug! Yes, our Bar Harbor & Acadia NP Episode is slated to air July 24. 😊 So glad you're enjoying this series and hope you have an awesome trip!

[@jopiaspieder1184]

I love Lucky Catch Cruises the staff is excellent they do an amazing job. I always recommend them to anyone visiting Portland, Maine. Plus I go to Old Orchard Beach ⛱ every summer too, I love their deep fried oreos.

[@NewstateNomads]

Yes!!! We absolutely agree, it was one of our favorite things we did on our entire Maine road trip. 😊 Thanks so much for watching!

[@sugunasimhadri5938]

Love the video. Which particular tour did you guys go to ? We are planning our trip next month and this is what we want to do. So want to know what time and type of tour you guys booked.

[@NewstateNomads]

Thanks, Suguna! We went on several tours in this episode, do you mean the food tour or the Lobstering tour? Both are linked in the description, Lucky Catch and Maine Day Ventures. Highly recommend both! 👍 - Howard

[@karppadiem7014]

I think the drive to Maine would be worth it just for those donuts or the strawberry rhubarb bread pudding! 💞💞 Can you tell I'm a dessert girl?!? 🤣 I met Troy while we were working at the Rainforest Cafe at Disney's Animal Kingdom and one of his jobs was to cook the lobster. 👍 Thanks for sharing. -Aimee

[@NewstateNomads]

The things we learn from YT! What a way to meet, and I hope you and Troy have lobster dinners every now and then at home... 😎 Maine is such an incredible place to explore, and we're so glad you're both along for the journey! 👍-Howard

[@charlesbrown3917]

Love the Chanel! Did you guys prefer whale watching in Kennebunkport or lobstering in Portland?

[@kathleenernst7935]

Heading back to Portland and definitely making the required stop at Holy Donuts! Just a quick question - from your video the store looks much much bigger than when we where there in 2017? Did the location move? Expand? Regards and thank you!

[@mrmoshpotato]

Slap me with all the lobster rolls! YUMM-O!

[@summersands8105]

It's amazing that when the pilgrims originally caught lobsters, they were fed to the pigs.

[@cabinvibeetsystore9094]

New sub! Liked 🙏😃☀️☀️

[@pglen6042]

Hi Kids

[@tanyahatchett8198]

Question? Why do you guys only do 1 video a week? Only being 35k? I look forward to the vlogs but we're still on crab?? ..you two do amazing vlogs just thought there would be more

[@hankplaysgames6569]

Portland head is theone of the most photophagh lighthouse in the world

[@diamondmichaelmoto]

👊

[@jamesclick8223]

I need to learn more about Maine,looks really nice. Not only a great place to visit but with the small population looks like would be a great place to live. The cost of living must be high,seems like there should be more people in this beautiful state.

[@oceanmagnolia]

No, we are good.

[@CashMopar]

Were they the exact lobsters you guys caught?

[@NewstateNomads]

That's very hard to say, but a great question. They always carry lobsters (caught on a prior trip) in the onboard tank in case the demand to buy outstrips what was caught during the trip. Since they're all mixed together, and tagged the same, it's a good shot but not guaranteed. Thanks for watching! 👍 -Howard

[@CashMopar]

@@NewstateNomads Thanks! Great channel! You guys are fun!

[@NewstateNomads]

@@CashMopar thanks so much! Glad you found us and are along for the journey! 👍 -Howard

[@dem7615]

We are severely short of help that can afford to live in Maine now .. bring your patience.. those working are doing their best.. restaurants many only open 3 days ... Due to staff

[@NewstateNomads]

It's a great point, thanks for bringing that up. We all need to remember our patience, particularly in areas with limited tourist seasons who are really struggling with staffing and other challenges. The best way to help is to patronize, be patient, thank the staff and tip when possible. 👍 -Howard

[@mrmoshpotato]

Why is a "too big" lobster thrown back?

[@AaronCTodd]

Oversized lobsters are granted a full life to mate and breed little ones. :)

[@mollybiehl6865]

I lived in Maine . Portland there is more history on the other side of the harbor then Portland . Take it for a Mainer

[@ericberard4343]

Tourism industry is destroying Maine and there’s thankfully an effort to move away the state’s dependence on it finally.

[@dotter702]

I'm sorry, but I find your presentation very annoying. You seem to flash every scene for less than a second, giving me no way to actually look at anything you're showing me unless I pause the video, and I'm not about to pause the video for every scene. Your video scenes are indeed high quality. Can't you give your viewers the benefit of a bit more time to actually be able to enjoy what you're showing them rather than just blowing through it?

[@NewstateNomads]

Dotter, thanks for watching and we appreciate your feedback. We do try to keep the pace of our videos fast as we share the places we explore. Where possible, we put location names on screen and also list specific places in the description. I hope you'll continue on the journey with us, and again thanks for watching. - Howard
