I recently discovered Traveling Robert and his fabulous videos and music. Like him putting a sticker on each state he visits, I am going to post this comment on all the ones I watch! You da man, Robert!!

[@la108293]

I recently discovered his channel. It's relaxing and addictive. I catch myself singing his theme song. 🙃

[@scothorne8448]

Gooooood morning Robert. Thank you for your new video. Your "do's" and "don'ts" in your videos are helpful. Keep the videos coming my friend; we enjoy them immensely. Congratulations on your new pickup truck, the Colorado. Fly pelican fly!

[@TravelingRobert]

Thank you!

[@philipirudayaraj4494]

Wow Beautiful Maine!!!! It was my very first visit to the U S and to Bethel maine in 2001 August. Now with you Robert 😊 a virtual visit. Thank you.

[@philipirudayaraj4494]

I am reliving my 2001 August experience every year. Thanks 😊.

[@omarkhalil4944]

I just drove 12 hours from Denver CO to Tucson AZ and OMG you enjoy a lot especially when checking the maps and see nature and that moment when you cross a new state ! BTW you’re a professional video producing, cameras, music and voice TRemendous

[@kuyabillromjue6892]

Robert !! This video popped up in a search for something else. WOW !! Beautiful work, I love your style. The videography, the background music and your content. Just Beautiful !! You just got yourself a new subscriber.

[@TravelingRobert]

Thank you so much. Hope you enjoy the rest of my videos

[@pedalpetter5865]

Can't say anything else than thank you. As always. Another great video. 👍👍👍

[@MarzanWorldwide]

It was a dark and foggy night in Maine... Great job as usual Robert!

[@TravelingRobert]

Thanks!

[@angielutman9526]

I'm about halfway through and I have to tell ya..... I am thoroughly enjoying your videos. You have mad skills on all your camera's, great music and I could listen to your voice for hours!! New subscriber!

[@TravelingRobert]

Thank you!

[@kend3900]

Excellent video, Sunday morning wouldn't be Sunday morning without a strong cup of coffee and a new TR Video

[@swhite8381]

Your videos are so enjoyable. I travel with you on many early mornings with my coffee. Thank you 🙏🏻

[@rudfil]

What a beautiful part of the USA...that shot @ 30:27 was just gorgeous.

[@GatorDwight]

Always look forward to seeing your adventures and boy is it nice to see them early! Being a Pelican Head has its benefits! Bless you Robert! See you on the Road!

[@mssixty3426]

Another fantastic video, thank you!

[@bentleypizza]

👋 Ogunquit, Maine w Perkins Cove has sooo many beautiful beaches and restaurants etc. Go one day soon!!

[@chrisharriman5245]

absolutely stunning and Maine has such a rugged beauty, i never knew. Thank you for sharing. the one thumbs down must have been the campground host...LOL....Love your creations.

[@gamenticus]

Robert--A year ago I started looking for an RV that I could pull with my new Toyota Venza (6 cyl), and found your videos--same tow specs as your Kia. After a year of worrying about tow capacity, we bought a Ford F150 (6 cyl) just last month and then your Kia blew up. Bought a Micro Minnie 2108DS at another show in Maryland (the weekend you were in Hershey). Just got back from the maiden voyage--ten days--including Route 84 into Connecticut in the rain, and stopped at the same lame visitor center that didn't have a map. Ate fried clams in Plymouth--KOAs throughout. You have literally inspired the whole RV experience. The MM is one amazing camper, and I don't think I'd want anything less than the F150 6 cyl (7200 lb tow cap). What I didn't like was the MPG in tow/haul mode--12--I'm getting 24 MPG on the open road without the trailer. I've been wanting to share that for what it's worth. These outstanding videos have been so instructive and fun to watch--we're big fans!

[@jpjp3873]

Hi there, I have a 6 cylinder ecoboost f-150 and we are looking at a micro Minnie 2106ds. How does your truck like the trailer load?

[@gamenticus]

JP -- Got the truck a month ago and got used to regular driving-- smooth as silk. The tow haul feature changes the gearing and keeps the trans out of overdrive. Completely different sound and feel -- trucky -- but it did fine at 60 - 65 (the MM tires are only rated for 65 so there's that). Definitely not a speedy experience, but thoroughly adequate -- took the mountain grades just fine. My truck does not have ecoboost-- its the 3.5 base, 2015 with the tow package. The 2108DS replaced the 2106DS in 2018 so it's the same trailer --3900lbs. My feeling was that if I add 500 lbs of this and that, I'm still no where near the tow capacity. No load complaints so far.

[@jpjp3873]

Thanks for the reply. We are excited to begin our travels. Looking and learning is a big part of the fun too. Happy rv'ing!

[@davidhuband9417]

I really enjoy your videos we are planning to go that trip in spring. Thank you Robert

[@karenharvey2549]

I love the lighthouse and the shore.

[@paulrodrigues9603]

Wow a lot of rich guy RV rigs at 14:30! Minitini looks cute behind Great White. I must say!

[@BillUtah]

Paul Rodrigues That would be the last way I’d want to travel.

[@kkathysan]

I’ve so enjoyed your videos of the New England area. Our kids are in that area now on an RV trip, and it gave me the chance to see what they are seeing. I love to travel but don’t get to do it enough! Fun traveling through your videos! 😊

[@jillmorton3096]

Great video. Glad you enjoyed our state😊

[@AnglovesLife888]

Hi Robert- What a bummer you caught Maine on an off week:(. Typically it’s quite beautiful. Next time check out Bar Harbor campground. There is a pool there and blueberry fields, lovely views. Keep traveling and posting these videos are fantastic!!

[@theresaboothby8693]

Fun to see you and Minitini driving the roads of my home "Nutmeg" state of Connecticut. (84 isn't fun even in beautiful dry weather). Hopefully you get to come back and explore more someday. Looking forward to the Massachusetts and Rhode Island videos. Safe travels.

[@TravelingRobert]

Next fall for sure

[@chauffeurhunter]

You earned yourself a new subscriber! You rock. I live in Bangor Maine and I was searching for videos about Maine travel. You have a great personality

[@chauffeurhunter]

Do you mind if I use your drone footage for a video of my own? Thank you.

[@TravelingRobert]

Thank you!

[@TravelingRobert]

As long as you give me proper credit if you publish it online. Thanks.

[@reinaldosilvasilva505]

What a Beautiful state Maine !! Thank you for this video Robert !!

[@williamvandervoet5824]

The wife and I love your shows so much, we watch on a 65 inch wall mounted tv, almost like being there with you.

[@corinnemcleod1804]

I could listen to you talk all day!

[@johnpossible6292]

Me and my wife are leaving from CT on Monday with our travel trailer to visit Maine for the first time. Were staying a few days in the Old Orchard area then traveling north to stay at the KOA Bar Harbor campground in Acadia National Park. Your video is one of the inspirations that are bringing us to Maine. Thankyou.

[@frankjackson533]

I am enjoying all your videos. Great music and beautiful sceneries!

[@jillmorton3096]

Please come back and visit when you can, as we have a huge beautiful state 😊

[@calbob750]

Crossing from New Hampshire into Maine the scenic route is to exit to US1. Historic York and it’s beaches with a rocky coastline mixed in. The “Hubble ”, Ogunquit, Wells, Kennebunkport all before arriving in Portland. Might want to drive up to Boothbay and Rockport home of LL Bean. A much easier drive than rolling at 75 on the Maine Turnpike just to rush up to Bar Harbor.

[@synthvault]

If ever a voice was made for narration!

[@biaedwards4025]

Really enjoyed the journey and your narration. You're a natural.

[@christinestange4813]

It was less time in Maine than what you had planned, but you did a great job in highlighting the beauty o the rugged Maine coastline ....not to mention the gorgeous sunflowers an beautiful rainbow.....lovely! I'm sure you and Ileana will get back to New England with time to spare. Thanks Robert!

[@studapeppahead5384]

My wife and I flew up from Indiana.....stayed a few days in "Bah Habah"...then down to OOB....I LOVE THIS STATE....EVERYTHING WAS AMAZING!!!!!

[@johnchalker6193]

Thank you Robert for passing through Waterbury Connecticut this is John from Waterbury Connecticut we hope one of these days you come and visit us I would love to give you a tour

[@gardensofthegods]

John Chalker Let him know again so that he sees the message so that next time he plans to go up that way you guys can meet If you find where he has replied to other people and you press and click on to his name you will be able to make sure he sees your message

[@CWdobro]

I know I’m way late to your videos but my wife and r getting spring fever and just booked our second trip to bar harbor and was searching content when u popped up! You just gained a sub! What a fun, entertaining and good info video. Thank you

[@scotta4726]

Hey it still a nice way to start off the day. Now hot breakfast

[@my2cyl]

Enjoyed the video and I really hope that you get to come back and truly enjoy New England (especially Maine).

[@TravelingRobert]

This time next year, to see the turning of the leaves

[@my2cyl]

Traveling Robert I really do hope you come back so I can show you “my Maine”. Yes the KOA is better , and for a great lobster roll a well known place isn’t always the best, there are plenty of breweries to visit too!

[@Luigi13]

It is a pleasure watching your videos Robert best narration and sightseeing. I get recharged all the time and yes I get an urge to travel and experience it. Thank you.

[@SocratesWS]

Howdy Robert, many thanks for sharing yet another 'Morales Super production Video' which sure made my day here.As always, a real treat for the eye and ear. Best wishes and cordial greetings from William across the 'Big Pond' (Bruges, Belgium)

[@AppleRob]

I spent a few years living in Hartford and spent my weekends exploring New England, the only state I never made it to was Maine.... Great video and those meatballs looked great! -Robert

[@TravelingRobert]

Thank you

[@o2bnov0307]

Robert, I enjoyed your trip to Maine so very much! I have attempted to drive there on my vacation a few different times. Each time I ran out of vacation time prior to getting to the halfway point. So, I've never made the trip. When I was in college I met someone who spent their annual vacation in Bar Harbor. Your photos were the first ones that I've seen. Without a doubt it is a tourist town, but it looks very nice. Good job with driving the large truck and your trailer. Also, good thing that you were under the 20' length in the campsite in ME. I've got my bags packed, and I fly to Boston tomorrow morning. No RV for me. Maybe an Uber. :). Safe travels to you.

[@PadraigGrimes]

I just discovered this chanell and subbed instantly. Looking forward to seeing more. I think you have visited Memphis so that's something to look forward to.

[@TravelingRobert]

Yes I did, two years ago.

[@elizabethgorsuch3062]

Robert I came cross your show by accident’ and fell in love with it’ & you “ now where ever you go “ I am there with you ‘ you are a very nice person’ thought you were riding through New Mexico’ but that was some other guy’ he didn’t didn’t talk very much so I had no idea what was going or where he was “ so i turned to your show ‘ you are the best’ thank you for such a wonderful show 💖💕🚐

[@ednakrueger8381]

@@elizabethgorsuch3062 Robert is great at explaining what you’re seeing and doing in the videos. I have enjoyed him now for almost a year. Travel is so much easier to plan when you get educated on where you’re going and Robert and his wife Illy help do that. Welcome to our group!!

[@colinblake24]

Love the RV cooking with Robert segment. What every you made look so good I began to salivate. Oh, and the voice over of you saying, 'It was a dark and foggy night in Maine" very funny.

[@robertprice8305]

This is my first time viewing, ended up on your channel by accident. I was going to click off after a few minutes, but your voice and descriptive narrative just drew me in. The next thing I knew 35 minutes had passed, with me saying " NOOOOO I want more". You did a fantastic job, I will subscribe and watch the rest of your play list.

[@johnnypinestead7879]

Sorry you had to see Gardiner, and smart move not stopping in Augusta.

[@lauriebreton3718]

Why don't you like Gardiner? Just curious. I think it's a great little town.

[@genxer711]

The scenery in Vermont and New Hampshire is amazing, you were so close. Maybe next time

[@faithrada]

Yup.. just need way more time to do it right.

[@leemartin9156]

The stone bridges in Acadia are amazing and beautiful! I know Mainers who trailer their horses up and ride or drive thair carriages on the carriage trails. New England is known for its crazy weather - with a saying "if you don't like the weather, wait a minute" lol. If you enjoy mother nature, his is the place, if you don't, you will be bored. There are many artisans like pottery etc scattered thru the state, golf courses on mountainsides or by water. Skiing/snowboarding for the brave souls as well as snowmobiling, dog sledding etc in the winter. Maine is usually the end of the through hike of the Appalachian trail - beautiful but rugged MT. Kahtadin (hope I have spelling correct). Plan on wide temperature fluctuations - hat mittens jacket to shorts n t-shirt or bathing suit. Summer traffic can be a challenge, so bring patience. Cannot forget LL Bean in Freeport, Maine. Brew houses, partisan coffee n ice cream n bakery/donut shops, tons of seafood, so much to explore if have the time. Swimming beaches like Old Orchard Beach - family friendly but like all tourist places, parking goes fast and most places charge for parking. Sorry for the tangent.... There is such variety if you look for it (and don't forget berry picking, Apple picking, pumpkins and corn mazes in fall). Hope you get the opportunity to enjoy at least some of the Maine experience....

[@tmtex]

I was born in 68, lived in NY til 79, Anyway my parents had a cabin in Maine. We went every summer until late 70's when they got rid of it. Many good memories as a young child of walking WAY out in the ocean when the tide was out and having to run back because it would come in fast. Will go back one day. Also that F250 is to much to pull that camper

[@vikkinicholson2300]

A rental ...his car broke down.

[@darleneplasse-young2479]

I have traveled all the states so far, this is my home state, great place to send a comment, I watch your videos, on my tv can only like n subscribe, no commenting, wish I went to the West in person , so beautiful, mountains and rivers, stay safe!

[@Trini1845]

Robert loved this video on Maine,I feel as if I was there thru your journey I see now how beautiful this state is love the light house thanks for your excellent commentary u should be a host on the travel channel 😍🥳⭐️👍

[@skpjoecoursegold366]

love the drone shots. i was in Maine mid Sept for 14 days and plan on going back in the future. loved Arcadia.

Great Video. Thank you for posting. This was informative and helpful.

[@djsi38t]

Two places you missed in acadia.Thunder hole which you drove right by and the famous round rocks beach where all the stones are like pool balls!Oh yeah and the beach with the sand made of seashells!

[@ritamcnabb2583]

Robert another outstanding show... enjoyed it as well as all your videos. I can't say enough how great your narrations are as well as your music... very relaxing...looking forward to some new Florida ones!! Thanks!!!

[@TravelingRobert]

Glad you liked it

[@ZiggZagg11]

I have been all over,... but I have never visited the northeast... A lot of the reasons you have touched on on this video...

[@karengriswold4537]

Hopefully, sometime you can travel back to New England and see my beautiful state of New Hampshire. So much more to see than the 20 miles of I-95, Mountains, Lakes, beautiful country side vistas, and if you come to the Capital in Concord, let me know...I live 3 blocks behind the statehouse!! Safe and happy travels!!

[@buickinvicta288]

Nice Robert, sorry you had to rush through. Saw my exit right at NY/CT state line.

[@creativehearts7127]

The coast line is just so beautiful..I love the different colored rocks..

[@emtquiver1588]

...this actually is a very informative post about Maine Travelling Robert😎..always a pleasure to visit your posts😃

[@dianamartin9295]

Robert I can’t tell you just how much I enjoy your trips especially now even more since Covid hit n can’t travel I especially loved the NE trip I really needed it I’m from Pa n live in SC now n only have got back up to that area twice since I moved here I miss it n family n friends n former customers at my former job of 23 years it was so good to see that area lots of memories but I never saw all of the New England states n they were so beautiful as well it was to bad you didn’t go into Betsy Ross house I probably was about 10 guessing when I saw it on a class trip I thought it was very cool n Penns Landing I went there many years ago a couple of times for concerts on the River

[@frequentthinker2385]

Thanks Robert. As usual, informative and interesting! We are planning to visit Maine next Summer/Fall and have been looking for this kind of information.

[@TravelingRobert]

Glad you found it useful. Thank you.

[@jenniferlorence185]

Beautiful Maine.

[@pattiwhite9575]

I absolutely loved this video. To see Massuthusetts, Maine and others as you drove thru. I have always wanted to go. Sorry about the sunrise but agree that the rocks were very unique and interesting. The views were captivating. I could have sat with the old couple forever.

[@azphilip1960]

Awesome!!! Great video!!! 👍👍👍👍👍😎

[@TravelingRobert]

Thank you

[@vikkinicholson2300]

We stopped to see the Bush compound at Kennybunkport and then took a water taxi to Nova Scotia .....so sorry about the campground fiasco. They handled it badly. Glad you got your money back. Things like that happen and when they do, you handle it like a true gentleman. Your musical talent is quite enjoyable.

[@johnthorpe6333]

Oh Robert you made the right call going up US 1. It is agreed drive. I have stoped at Moose Point part also. Next time to get up to Maine go up the check out the fort to the left of the bridge going north.

[@davidtubbs7906]

Gooood Morning! Robert!

[@natejess-personalfinancetr2861]

My brother and sister in law were just up in Maine. They went up to that same spot but didnt have much luck seeing the sunrise either. Love your channel and the theme song; Jess and I starting humming it every time there is a new video lol. Can't wait to see where you head next. :)

[@donnagilbertson7769]

We love Maine. Bar harbor KOA is a gem. We bring our dogs, stay on the water for a week. Gorgeous.

[@speshul7525]

You go farther north in July , you will find new Yorkers in sweaters looking for the glaciers coming down from Canada, or snow , and it's 90 degree in Belfast, Maine. OMG they think it's cold because it's Maine. I love to watch them

[@jcro2066]

Really enjoyed this one I know this area well......living in NH we spend a lot of time in Maine .....glad to hear you'll be back next year....thanks for another great video love the drone shots ....

[@TravelingRobert]

Thank you. Definitely will try to go back next year

[@jasonbergeron6347]

Very nice! We definitely want to visit Maine by air. How disappointing that you were asked to move to another site.....that's poor customer care, and poor reservation planning on their part. I doubt I'd be back there as well. Looking forward to seeing Boston and Rhode Island next Sunday!

[@johnyates153]

Son lives in Bangor hope you get back up there again! Such an amazing place!
