Welcome to NH and us folks just call it the Kank. Thank you for the kind words about the state I was born and lived my whole and have no plans of leaving. Hello from Tamworth, NH!!
My husband and I spent 18 years in that area of New Hampshire and entirely loved it...the nickname for the Kankamagus Highway is called the Kanc. My husband submitted Mt Washington, took the train several times ..both train rides out of Conway...hiked many, many trails and miles, took the Cog Railway several times. This brought back so many memories of my husband and my time there together ❤.
I live in Lincoln. Nice to see some creators make videos about my little town :) EDIT: my parents got married on the bridge @ 3:30 and that’s where I took my senior yearbook photos
Love this intro song!! I live in New England and fall is definitely where we thrive!! I’m from the southern part of Connecticut - there is not much in CT but hands down the best fall activity in CT (other than visiting the farms) is the Essex Steam Train and Riverboat!! The steam train has been running for years and they have a gorgeous station with lots of old train cars from areas around New England! The Riverboat ride takes you along a gorgeous river seeing sights like old castles on the hills and the foliage from another perspective. They also offer dinner train rides most of the year as well!
NH here. "Leaf Peepers" is widely used. Unlike "Masshole" we sometimes use the term affectionately. Lmao. Most commonly used while driving behind an out of state license plate ruining your drive to work lol.
Hahaha... Glad to hear it's "sometimes" used affectionately! Lol... Where I'm from (South Carolina/North Carolina) the term I always heard was "Leaf Lookers", but whatever you call them, I understand the situation of being stuck behind an out of stater when you're trying to get somewhere! Lol... Thanks so much for watching! -Matt
Love the video been to Lincoln and North Conway many time stopped at all those place also. Yes leaf peepers is correct. To made you guys couldn't eat at The Muddy Moose great place also in Lincoln The common man is really good also.We drove up Mount Washington in the car I would compare that to Angles Landing except in a car.
Aw… Thanks George!! We really enjoyed the area! Yea, it was a bummer about the dining situation, but we just had to roll with the punches! Oh, that’s good to hear about Common Man! It was actually on our list and we included it our blog as a recommendation! Oh wow! That sounds like a terrifying and amazing experience all at the same time! Lol… Thanks for watching!😊
Beautiful place to visit, you guys. I kept thinking throughout the video that Bob Ross must have painted New Hampshire with all of his happy trees. Beyond beautiful. I was nervous seeing y’all on another train this soon after Colorado, but alas, you made us all proud by being on time! ❤️ I hope you didn’t run into any creepers while you were out being leaf-peepers. That train whistle wouldn’t let you be sleeper and that made us all weepers….ok I’m done now 🤗
Right?! Everywhere you looked was like another Bob Ross painting! Hahaha… We have PTSD after the Colorado train! 🤣🤣 Hahaha… LOVED the poem!! Lol… You’re a natural! Thanks for watching!😊
@@AdventuresofMattandNat I'm Brazilian, and here in Brazil we have a charming nature, very rich, with an infinite amount of fruits, such as Mango, Jabuticaba, Pineapple, Watermelon, which there are also, Lots of oranges, Blackberries, Guava, and much more, because this is a tripical country, of course. However, American nature has a special charm, the color of this forest is a sight for sore eyes. The girl doesn't seem to like coffee, correct? Here we drink pure coffee, then mix in some things, like cream, right? To give you an idea, the coffee we drink is much darker than Coca-Cola, for example. However, as I have arrhythmia, and caffeine for those with arrhythmia is not very good, I reduced my consumption, but I drank around a liter of coffee a day. I mentioned some fruits that are here, it seems that they were not translated into English correctly, such as Mango, Jabuticaba and Guava. If you want to know these delicious fruits, write the names of the fruits in Portuguese in the Google search engine, and you will see the photos. A big hug.
I know all about this place in America! Here we go, New Hampshire was the 9th state and was named by British captain John Mason after his hometown in Hampshire county, England. This is where he spent little time as a child! That's all I know, great exploring video you guys.
While in Conway you guys should have done a to go order from one of the local restaurants. My wife and I will usually grab a "to go" and head over to the Pemi Valley Overlook for one of the best sunset viewing spots on the "Kanc".
You guys are so funny. Beautiful trip in the New Hampshire. Train looked like a good time. Always nice when you can just relax and look outside and not have to drive.
I live in Laconia and Ive been watching all the videos waiting for this one! Glad you guys were able to enjoy New Hampshire and see the Kanc. Such a beautiful road, we try to get up there at least once a month.
The colors are so beautiful!! I love fall, but I’ve only seen the Midwest that time of year! Adding another travel wish to my bucket list-New England in the fall. 💕
So very late to the game but suggestions…Take a drive up 302 to Crawford Notch, hike Elephant Head or even Mt. Willard if you want a little more challenge (3.2 miles RT). If you continue past Crawford Notch, you will eventually get to overlook of Mt. Washington Hotel. In Bethlehem Rek’Lis brewing is yum. We love the history of the Willey House. Restaurants to try…Moat Mountain Smokehouse, Tuckerman’s Tavern, both in the North Conway area. Back on the other side by Lincoln is Artist’s Bluff and The Basin. Both easy and worth a stop
This is the first time I've watched one of your vlogs on the day it actually posts...yippee! It's a great one, too. Love the beautiful trees and foliage of New Hampshire and you two make viewing them all the more fun. I traveled through New England many years ago...1963...on my way to visit family in Nova Scotia. It's also fun watching you eat all the delicious-looking edibles, since I'm on a stringent diet of absolutely tasteless foods. Now I know why the word "diet" begins with "die"! Keep the wonderful videos coming. They are really enjoyable. Thanks!
👏🏼🎉👏🏼🎉👏🏼🎉 LOOK AT YOU GO!! 😜🎉🎊 We can’t thank you enough for watching & leaving such a kind comment! It really is a beautiful State! Bahaha girlll I feel you. I’m on a diet now too! 😭😂so anytime I’m editing our food scenes… I get so hungry! 😂🤤 Thank you again for being on this adventure with us! Makes our day! 💗 - Nat
I played some game on Facebook that told me I belonged in New Hampshire. I believe it after seeing your video! It's gorgeous. Also, love the song you chose while in Sabbaday Falls. Timed it perfectly with that first leaf falling. Beautiful trip as always!
Hahaha I love taking those quizzes. Lol RIGHT?!? It’s sooo beautiful!!! We couldn’t believe how vibrant it all was! 😍🍁🍂 awww thanks so much for noticing the small details! Makes my whole day! 🥰 Thanks so much for watching! 💗- Nat
Oooh I don't normally comment on videos but I'm so excited to see you guys in my state! I spend a lot of time hiking up in the White Mountains and you guys captured the area so beautifully. If you come back I'd recommend spending more time in Lincoln. The Muddy Moose is good but I personally think the Woodstock Inn Brewery has the yummiest food. For more outdoorsy stuff you can't go wrong with taking the tram or hiking up Cannon Mountain and checking out Flume Gorge. Kudos on pronouncing Kancamagus too! If you don't want to torture yourselves in the future, everyone I know just calls it "The Kanc" since it's a bit of a mouthful :). Truly fantastic video!
Aww thank you so much for your comment & for watching! It means more than you know! 🥰 It’s such a beautiful area!! 😍👌🏼🍁 thank you so much for the recommendations! Writing them all down now! Thank you again for the kind words! 💗 - Nat
the best breakfast place in lincoln nh is flapjacks pancake house.always a line 2 get in on weekends and dont mind the overhead buzzing.its just a train running along the ceiling.oh the food is great with hearty portions.thanx 4 visiting.
Oh that's awesome that you grew up there! It's a beautiful area. Yea, we heard that some locals pronounce it that way, but we decided to stick with the way that the official Kancamagus Highway website and many other publications said was the "correct" way to say it. Lol 🤷🏻♂️ But if there's anything we've learned from all of our travels, it's that there's no ONE right way to say just about anything! Lol... Thanks so much for watching!
Hey guys!! Between Vermont and New Hampshire you guys have seen some amazing fall colors. I love that time of year. And I’m all about the old trains and waterfalls so this video was a little extra special to me. I’m also glad you guys made it to the sunset in time. Sometime you gotta break your fast food rules for the great good of a beautiful sunset. Hope you guys are doing well, staying safe and enjoying life. Take care you two and God bless🙏
Hey guys!!! 👋🏼 how was your New Orleans trip?! Hope it was amazing!!! It’s our favorite season! 🍂 It was just so beautiful! Awww love that… matt was stressing we weren’t going to make it but we did! 🎉 hahaha SEE… you get it! Views>food lol thanks so much for watching & for the kind comment! It always makes our day! Praying y’all are doing great! God Bless y’all!🙏🏼💗 - Nat
@@AdventuresofMattandNat we had such a great time in NOLA. Lots of great food, amazing music, a cemetery tour, a plantation tour and a swamp boat ride we’re just a few of the highlights. Cheri went as far as to say it was the vacation of a lifetime and I’m tempted to agree with her. Now I know I sound like a broken record but in classic Matt and Nat style you guys had a tough decision to make and you made a great choice and everything worked out great. No one got hangry and you got to see a beautiful sunset. Win/win!! Thanks for another great video!! Take care you guys
You guys are adorable. I am from New England and go up frequently. You guys did a great job at capturing all the beauty as well as the perfect spots to hit.
We get leaf peeping peeps all over Colorado in the fall; it's a known term, but loved your comment about it. Your videos are wonderful and so enjoyable to watch. Thank you for your humor and spunk. Keep it up!
So sorry for the late reply 🙈 We’re trying to catch up! Aww thank you for watching & for your kind comment! 🥰 We appreciate you & hope you have an amazing New Years! 🎉
Hi Matt and Nat! I recently discovered your channel and I've really enjoyed watching you visit states around the country. As someone who's lived in NH all her life, it was great to see you enjoying my home state. All the different shots you got were beautiful! I feel like NH often gets overlooked compared to neighboring states, but we definitely have a lot to offer. I hope this video will inspire more people to visit. I can't wait to watch more from you! I hope you have a fantastic day!!
Let them visit via video only. I don't need any more company on the roads. Next thing you tell people to go hiking, then I will really have an issue. It's hard enough getting parking at trailheads already. Just kidding.
Just found you guys! Really enjoyed your New Hampshire video as I lived there for about 2 years. Nat, you are beautiful!! Also enjoy the music selections. I subscribed, so I'll be seeing you!! Safe travels!
Aww yay!! So happy you found us Georgia!! 🎉 We are so excited to have you on this adventure with us! 🥰 it’s a beautiful state!! Awww you are the sweetest & you just made my day! 🥰 thank you so much for the kind words! Hope you have an amazing day! 🎉💗 - Nat
LOL about "leaf peeping"... We are literally in the midst of planning our official "Leaf Peeping 2022" holiday when we'll be flying in to NYC from Perth (Western Australia) then heading out into upstate NY, Vermont, New Hampshire, Maine, Boston and Providence/Newport.
Haha right?!? 😂 it’s funny to say! Lol WOW that is going to be such an EPIC Fall vacation!!! 🎉🎉 Those are all of the amazing spots!!! I can’t wait to visit Newport 😍 We hope y’all have such an amazing time peeping leaves!! 🍂🍁😜💗 - Nat
Depending on where you are going to be, the fall color peak changes going from north to south. Plan a trip at the beginning of Oct. to make the most of “leaf peeping” season. I’ve lived in NH my whole life and can gladly give any other pointers or sights to see in New England. I see that Newport RI is on your list. Definitely plan on touring The Breakers mansion. You will be amazed! Anywhere on the Maine coastline (Portland and up the coast). Acadia National Park is in ME near Bar Harbor and is stunning. Anyway, enjoy your visit!
@@michelerobertson8276 We were fortunate to hit NH at peak colour! Didn't get to Acadia but enjoyed our time on the Maine coast... And were blown away by The Breakers.
Catching up now! Hahaha yes I knew it was called Leaf Peeping but I loved your comment about it! So sorry about Chipotle being closed - those options were rough. Derek says he voted for Dairy Queen. I guess I probably would have done McDonalds. But, ooooof. I hope someday we can go to NH during peak foliage and do the Conway train - looked stunning! Thanks guys for sharing this great trip!
Late to the party. But, as a New Englander (NH), I feel inclined to correct you: it’s “Leef Peepah”, in the local vernacular. Folks from away can be frustrating, clogging up 93 and 95. But, they seem to be fascinated by the idea of dirt cheap hooch, no general sales tax, hiking mountains with hurricane strength winds at their summits, and red and yellow leaves. How bizzah… Next time you’re in the area, be sure to check out the Seacoast Area. Tons of history and lots to see and do there. Portsmouth is NH’s jewel city and is one of the oldest settlements in the U.S. (1623). If you’re beer drinkers, it’s your oyster.
For food, try grapping some pre-made salad, sandwiches, and fruits at the local grocery. Hannaford in Conway. I bought some pre-made sushi in the deli section and ate at the Sabbaday Falls. Beautiful spot for picnic.
So pretty!! 😍 I saw your Vermont video first and thought, "I have to go to Vermont!" Then I saw this video and thought, "But only after I see New Hampshire and ride the scenic railroad!" 😂 Gorgeous video you two! Love your blogs, keep 'em comin'! : )
I grew up in Avon, MA (now live in the next town over in Brockton). Had many great memories of traveling in NH, VT & ME. If you ever find yourselves in my area (south of Boston) you should check out a regional treat! South Shore Bar Pie!! 10" pizzas that are unique to this area. Look into it! Addictive...
Yep! It was filmed on October! If you’re ever curious of when our videos were filmed, we always post the film dates in the description!🙂 Thanks for watching!👍🏼
Lol 😂 we literally had Taco Bell for dinner tonight. I’m with you guys, we like to try to eat local as much as we can when we travel but sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do!! And I mean-you guys have good food almost everywhere you go, but how often do you get to see a fall sunset in New England?! 💕
There's an aspect of your videos that has me very curious. There are moments when we're seeing a bird's eye view of the place you're visiting. How are those clips being captured? Do you travel with a drone? Do you hire a drone service where you are to get those views? Just looking to satisfy my curiosity.
Hi guys headed up to the area in two weeks can’t decide on on which scenic railroad trip to book ….. which one did you guys book n this video ? I don’t want a long one but still want to do a train trip as I want to spend the day exploring this region.
I was so excited for this one and you guys did not disappoint! Incredible video, beautiful shots! Such a gorgeous state that I hope to live in some day so thank you for confirming that even further with this gem of a video ❤️
Aww thanks so much for watching Juliet! We appreciate you & your kind comment! 💗🥰 it’s such a beautiful State! 😍We can’t wait to come back & explore more! 🍂🍁👍🏼 💗 - Nat
Absolutely! Unfortunately, our jobs don’t allow us to travel for long stretches, so we try to take advantage of what time we do have. We take the approach that it’s “Better to see something once than to hear about it a thousand times”. Thanks for watching!
Travel tip hack: When there aren't any viable options for dining head to the grocery store. What you're going to spend in a restaurant you'll spend there. And a boy them leafs are puurty.
@@AdventuresofMattandNat I'm surprised people are correcting you when you do say it correctly. I'm a local. I live in Gorham. We often call it the Kanc.
I got curious and decided to look it up at the official website of the Kancamagus Highway. Here's what they say: This has been an ongoing debate for many years but if you look at the word closely, letter by letter while reading it you will see it really is pronounced the way it looks with the exception of the a’s. The first a is pronounced as a but the other two a’s sound like “ah”.
Many people try to put a second “n” in the word and say “Kanc-ah-mangas”. This is the most common mistake when pronouncing Kancamagus. Also, these same people tend to spell it wrong as well, again adding that second “n” in the word.
Then there are those who add an extra “g” in the word, and the extra “n” and say “Kang-ah-mangus.”
The correct way to pronounce Kancamagus is Kanc-ah-mah-gus”
@@pcastonguay Yea, that's why I'm always so confused when people "correct" us saying that it is pronounced "Kanc-ah-mangas"! Lol... I never understood where the extra "n" came from! Lol... Oh, well! Thanks for watching and confirming that we're saying it correctly! -Matt
There's been like a caterpillar epidemic in the valley the last two years or so, they keep eating all the leaves in the spring so the trees have looked bare. North Conway in particular. It's ruining the fall foliage around here, hope they're not around next May.
Nice video btw, glad you guy's enjoyed it. It's too bad about the food situation though, you should have tried Cafe Noche in Conway, great Mexican restaurant with a cool atmosphere inside. I would say Big Dave's bagel & Deli, but they close at 3 as well. Voted best bagles in the state of NH, and were just recently on Guy Fieri's "Diners Drive-ins and Dives" on Food Network. Everything on their menu is amazing, and "Wicked Fresh burgers" is another place that you would have loved, the owner won a episode of "chopped" on the food network himself, their burgers are probably the best I've ever had. The Muddy Moose is decent, but just really any other restaurant, nothing too special. Although the inside is crazy cool looking.
Agh man... Hate to hear about the caterpillar epidemic! Hopefully that doesn't last much longer. Yea, the food situation was not ideal... I think it was a combination of small town and the pandemic. I don't know how we missed Wicked Fresh Burgers! I just looked them up and they look amazing! Oh well... Next time! Thanks for the recommendations! And yea, the Muddy Moose didn't look like anything that was going to blow us away, but we always like to support local... Unfortunately our schedule didn't allow for it this time. Thanks so much for watching! -Matt
This was filmed on October 13th, and the weather was great... a little warmer than we would have liked, but still nice! It got up to the high 70's while we were there, but that wasn't typical for that time of year. I hope this helps! Thanks for watching!
Hi Nina! Thanks so much for watching! To answer your question, yes, we rented a car. Having a vehicle is necessary to get around in this area. We visited Vermont, New Hampshire, and Maine on this trip. We flew in and out of Manchester-Boston Regional Airport. Hope that helps!
I'm gonna guess that your favorite NFL team are the Titans, your favorite MLB team are the Cardinals, your favorite NBA team are the Grizzlies, and your favorite NHL team are the Predators.
It isn't a trip on the Conway Scenic Railroad if a quarter of the way in you aren't cranky and regretting getting on a train that literally goes nowhere.
FYI - The word “chai” is actually the Hindi word for “tea,” so to say "chai tea" is to say "tea tea." Drop the redundancy and just call it chai. We know what you mean. :)
You're not wrong! Lol... Unfortunately, I think you're gonna have to take that up with nearly every coffee shop in the US that has "Chai Tea" on the menu. 😂 In their defense, (as "wrong" as it may be) "chai" has become synonymous with the specific flavor of the tea (Masala Chai/Spice Tea) more so than just the black tea that it's made from. Funny how things get lost in translation and then just become the norm in a culture! Lol... Anyway... Thanks for watching, and we'll try to correct our chai redundancies moving forward! 😂👍
It’s actually spelled “Kancamagus”… There’s no “n” between the “a” and the “g”. So the pronunciation is “Kan-kuh-MAH-guhs”. Thanks so much for watching!😊
🤷🏻♂️After multiple conversations about this through the years, I’m not sure anyone knows how to pronounce it really! Lol🤣… From kancamagushighway.com-> “The Kancamagus Highway, also known as "The Kanc," is often misspelled and mis-pronounced Kangamangus Highway, Kangumangus Hiway or Kancamangus Highway. The correct way pronounce Kancamagus is "Kank-ah-mah-gus." “🤷🏻♂️ Thanks for watching! 😊
I disliked this video because you blatantly broke the law using your drone in the National Forest. I will also report you. Learn the rules guys! No drones within 1/4 mile of all roads, trail heads, and parking lots. I suppose you did this in National Parks too where they are banned everywhere? PS also banned in all NH State Parks.
Hey Mike! I totally understand your frustration. As a Part 107 Certified Drone Pilot I regularly see drone laws being blatantly ignored/broken and it drives me crazy. Anytime you see drone footage in our videos that may be questionable it is VERY likely that it is stock footage that was purchased 100% legally. I’m very careful to research drone laws of specific areas before each flight. As a fellow drone enthusiast, thank you for caring about drone laws. And thanks for watching! -Matt

If you don't want to torture yourselves in the future, everyone I know just calls it "The Kanc" since it's a bit of a mouthful :).
Truly fantastic video!
Aww thank you so much for your comment & for watching! It means more than you know! 🥰 It’s such a beautiful area!! 😍👌🏼🍁 thank you so much for the recommendations! Writing them all down now! Thank you again for the kind words! 💗 - Nat
BetaMax, right on with the Kanc. I love to drive people up the wall and pronounce it Kancamangus, there's nothing better.
Growing up in Vermont we used to call the foliage tourists, “Leaf Peaker’s”, not “Leaf Peepers”. Love your videos! ❤
the best breakfast place in lincoln nh is flapjacks pancake house.always a line 2 get in on weekends and dont mind the overhead buzzing.its just a train running along the ceiling.oh the food is great with hearty portions.thanx 4 visiting.
The Valley has some of the absolute best restaurants. I grew up in Conway.
We sound that road out as
Kank-A-Mang-gus or The Kank 😊
Oh that's awesome that you grew up there! It's a beautiful area. Yea, we heard that some locals pronounce it that way, but we decided to stick with the way that the official Kancamagus Highway website and many other publications said was the "correct" way to say it. Lol 🤷🏻♂️ But if there's anything we've learned from all of our travels, it's that there's no ONE right way to say just about anything! Lol... Thanks so much for watching!
Beautiful photos and drone pics were fantastic!!! Enjoyed this vlog!! So beautiful and peaceful 👏❤️ love the hat Natalie 💕🥰❤️😍👏👏❤️❤️
Aww… Thank youuu!! 🥰🥰
Hey guys!! Between Vermont and New Hampshire you guys have seen some amazing fall colors. I love that time of year. And I’m all about the old trains and waterfalls so this video was a little extra special to me. I’m also glad you guys made it to the sunset in time. Sometime you gotta break your fast food rules for the great good of a beautiful sunset. Hope you guys are doing well, staying safe and enjoying life. Take care you two and God bless🙏
Hey guys!!! 👋🏼 how was your New Orleans trip?! Hope it was amazing!!! It’s our favorite season! 🍂 It was just so beautiful! Awww love that… matt was stressing we weren’t going to make it but we did! 🎉 hahaha SEE… you get it! Views>food lol thanks so much for watching & for the kind comment! It always makes our day! Praying y’all are doing great! God Bless y’all!🙏🏼💗 - Nat
@@AdventuresofMattandNat we had such a great time in NOLA. Lots of great food, amazing music, a cemetery tour, a plantation tour and a swamp boat ride we’re just a few of the highlights. Cheri went as far as to say it was the vacation of a lifetime and I’m tempted to agree with her. Now I know I sound like a broken record but in classic Matt and Nat style you guys had a tough decision to make and you made a great choice and everything worked out great. No one got hangry and you got to see a beautiful sunset. Win/win!! Thanks for another great video!! Take care you guys
Love it guys beautiful scenery!!!! Looks like fun
Aww thanks so much guys!!! 🎉We appreciate you watching & for your comment! 🥰 It really was beyond beautiful!! 😍🍂🍁💗 - Nat
Beautiful 😍🥰 I miss fall in Florida so much!
You guys are adorable. I am from New England and go up frequently. You guys did a great job at capturing all the beauty as well as the perfect spots to hit.
We get leaf peeping peeps all over Colorado in the fall; it's a known term, but loved your comment about it. Your videos are wonderful and so enjoyable to watch. Thank you for your humor and spunk. Keep it up!
So sorry for the late reply 🙈 We’re trying to catch up! Aww thank you for watching & for your kind comment! 🥰 We appreciate you & hope you have an amazing New Years! 🎉
Hi Matt and Nat! I recently discovered your channel and I've really enjoyed watching you visit states around the country. As someone who's lived in NH all her life, it was great to see you enjoying my home state. All the different shots you got were beautiful! I feel like NH often gets overlooked compared to neighboring states, but we definitely have a lot to offer. I hope this video will inspire more people to visit. I can't wait to watch more from you! I hope you have a fantastic day!!
Let them visit via video only. I don't need any more company on the roads. Next thing you tell people to go hiking, then I will really have an issue. It's hard enough getting parking at trailheads already. Just kidding.
Just found you guys! Really enjoyed your New Hampshire video as I lived there for about 2 years. Nat, you are beautiful!! Also enjoy the music selections. I subscribed, so I'll be seeing you!! Safe travels!
Aww yay!! So happy you found us Georgia!! 🎉 We are so excited to have you on this adventure with us! 🥰 it’s a beautiful state!! Awww you are the sweetest & you just made my day! 🥰 thank you so much for the kind words! Hope you have an amazing day! 🎉💗 - Nat
LOL about "leaf peeping"... We are literally in the midst of planning our official "Leaf Peeping 2022" holiday when we'll be flying in to NYC from Perth (Western Australia) then heading out into upstate NY, Vermont, New Hampshire, Maine, Boston and Providence/Newport.
Haha right?!? 😂 it’s funny to say! Lol WOW that is going to be such an EPIC Fall vacation!!! 🎉🎉 Those are all of the amazing spots!!! I can’t wait to visit Newport 😍 We hope y’all have such an amazing time peeping leaves!! 🍂🍁😜💗 - Nat
Depending on where you are going to be, the fall color peak changes going from north to south. Plan a trip at the beginning of Oct. to make the most of “leaf peeping” season. I’ve lived in NH my whole life and can gladly give any other pointers or sights to see in New England. I see that Newport RI is on your list. Definitely plan on touring The Breakers mansion. You will be amazed! Anywhere on the Maine coastline (Portland and up the coast). Acadia National Park is in ME near Bar Harbor and is stunning. Anyway, enjoy your visit!
@@michelerobertson8276 We were fortunate to hit NH at peak colour! Didn't get to Acadia but enjoyed our time on the Maine coast... And were blown away by The Breakers.
Catching up now! Hahaha yes I knew it was called Leaf Peeping but I loved your comment about it! So sorry about Chipotle being closed - those options were rough. Derek says he voted for Dairy Queen. I guess I probably would have done McDonalds. But, ooooof. I hope someday we can go to NH during peak foliage and do the Conway train - looked stunning! Thanks guys for sharing this great trip!
OMG!!!! Yes!!!! My second home state finally being released!!!! Love you both!!! ❤️❤️❤️
Woohoo!!! We LOVED our time in NH! Thanks so much for watching!😊
@@AdventuresofMattandNat 😀😀🤣
Late to the party. But, as a New Englander (NH), I feel inclined to correct you: it’s “Leef Peepah”, in the local vernacular.
Folks from away can be frustrating, clogging up 93 and 95. But, they seem to be fascinated by the idea of dirt cheap hooch, no general sales tax, hiking mountains with hurricane strength winds at their summits, and red and yellow leaves. How bizzah…
Next time you’re in the area, be sure to check out the Seacoast Area. Tons of history and lots to see and do there. Portsmouth is NH’s jewel city and is one of the oldest settlements in the U.S. (1623). If you’re beer drinkers, it’s your oyster.
Leaf peepers come under the broader phrase of "Folks from away".
🤣🤣 Sounds right! Lol
Just found yalls channel...its amazing,,yall have great attitudes and are very funny.. Glad we found yall !!
Aww... Thanks so much, Dean! We're glad you found us too!! Thanks for watching!😊
Hi Matt and Nat❣❣What amazing place! Incredible.
So much fun to travel with you guys
Dear Mountains!! Thanks so much for watching & for your kind comment! 🥰 We LOVE having you on this adventure with us! 🎉💗 - Nat
I would love to visit New Hampshire in October.
For food, try grapping some pre-made salad, sandwiches, and fruits at the local grocery. Hannaford in Conway. I bought some pre-made sushi in the deli section and ate at the Sabbaday Falls. Beautiful spot for picnic.
Great suggestion!! Thanks got watching!😊
If you ever find yourself in New Hampshire again, you should definitely try Polly's Pancake Parlor in Sugar Hill. Worth the wait.
Ooo... Thanks for the recommendation! We'll have to check it out! Thanks for watching!😊
My dream is to move to New Hampshire one day. Dealing with a lot of health issues. Hope I get to achieve my dream one day.
So pretty!! 😍 I saw your Vermont video first and thought, "I have to go to Vermont!" Then I saw this video and thought, "But only after I see New Hampshire and ride the scenic railroad!" 😂 Gorgeous video you two! Love your blogs, keep 'em comin'! : )
You need to take the Cog Railway to the top of Mt. Washington as well just be prepared for Winter even if you go in July.
I grew up in Avon, MA (now live in the next town over in Brockton). Had many great memories of traveling in NH, VT & ME. If you ever find yourselves in my area (south of Boston) you should check out a regional treat! South Shore Bar Pie!! 10" pizzas that are unique to this area. Look into it! Addictive...
Is a nice ride! Too bad you didn't explore Franconia notch
Love the video. Great job editing. Makes me want to go there
Thanks so much! Looking forward to hopefully connecting at TravelCon!😊
These are definitely from several months back. Right now we are waiting for the leaves to bud and reopen.
Yep! It was filmed on October! If you’re ever curious of when our videos were filmed, we always post the film dates in the description!🙂 Thanks for watching!👍🏼
Lol 😂 we literally had Taco Bell for dinner tonight. I’m with you guys, we like to try to eat local as much as we can when we travel but sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do!! And I mean-you guys have good food almost everywhere you go, but how often do you get to see a fall sunset in New England?! 💕
its amazing views guys...
considering peak fall foliage time, is this peak fall foliage? or late?
Props for the breezy beautiful vlog! Did I spy a Southwest Airlines snack bag @ 9:16 ?
Hooray you pronounced the highway name right!!!!! Lol
Hahaha… Most of the time!🤣🤣 Thanks for watching!
@@AdventuresofMattandNat absolutely!! We lived maybe 3 miles from the train station when we lived in NH 😁
@@stacyeldridge6042 Oh that’s awesome!!
Check out Poland Spring Hotel and Golf Course in Maine. Incredible.
Next time, go in that mountain water! It’s the fountain of youth.
So many choices to eat there......you had alot of choices
There are a lot of options just most of them weren’t open 😭 we are so looking forward to come back!!
There's an aspect of your videos that has me very curious. There are moments when we're seeing a bird's eye view of the place you're visiting.
How are those clips being captured? Do you travel with a drone? Do you hire a drone service where you are to get those views?
Just looking to satisfy my curiosity.
amazing state in Fall season and God bless america ✌️😍🇺🇸❤️
Hi guys headed up to the area in two weeks can’t decide on on which scenic railroad trip to book ….. which one did you guys book n this video ? I don’t want a long one but still want to do a train trip as I want to spend the day exploring this region.
McDonald’s has saved us from hanger melt downs during travel many times. No judgement here!
I was so excited for this one and you guys did not disappoint! Incredible video, beautiful shots! Such a gorgeous state that I hope to live in some day so thank you for confirming that even further with this gem of a video ❤️
Aww thanks so much for watching Juliet! We appreciate you & your kind comment! 💗🥰 it’s such a beautiful State! 😍We can’t wait to come back & explore more! 🍂🍁👍🏼 💗 - Nat
I love the way you guys say Kangamangus 😂
What time of year did you go? I am guessing it won't look this cool in May?
You really need a week to do some of these areas
Absolutely! Unfortunately, our jobs don’t allow us to travel for long stretches, so we try to take advantage of what time we do have. We take the approach that it’s “Better to see something once than to hear about it a thousand times”. Thanks for watching!
Travel tip hack: When there aren't any viable options for dining head to the grocery store. What you're going to spend in a restaurant you'll spend there.
And a boy them leafs are puurty.
Soooo true!!! Great idea! Next time I’ll put that in my phone instead! Thanks for the hack!
Right?! They were so beautiful! 😍🍂🍁
@@AdventuresofMattandNat welcome!
😄 🤣 No Fast Food Review guys 😆 😅 Taco Bell does hit the spot,usually after a few drinks.
Hahaha… We decided to spare you! Lol… You’re not wrong! Haha
Sorry you guys missed peak foliage. Come back at peak foliage and show how New Hampshire shines.
Congratulations for pronouncing the name "Kancamagus" correctly.
Haha… Thank you!! Yet we’ve STILL have been “corrected” by locals in the comments informing us that we’re saying it wrong.🤣🤷🏻♂️
@@AdventuresofMattandNat I'm surprised people are correcting you when you do say it correctly. I'm a local. I live in Gorham. We often call it the Kanc.
I got curious and decided to look it up at the official website of the Kancamagus Highway. Here's what they say:
This has been an ongoing debate for many years but if you look at the word closely, letter by letter while reading it you will see it really is pronounced the way it looks with the exception of the a’s. The first a is pronounced as a but the other two a’s sound like “ah”.
Many people try to put a second “n” in the word and say “Kanc-ah-mangas”. This is the most common mistake when pronouncing Kancamagus. Also, these same people tend to spell it wrong as well, again adding that second “n” in the word.
Then there are those who add an extra “g” in the word, and the extra “n” and say “Kang-ah-mangus.”
The correct way to pronounce Kancamagus is Kanc-ah-mah-gus”
@@pcastonguay Yea, that's why I'm always so confused when people "correct" us saying that it is pronounced "Kanc-ah-mangas"! Lol... I never understood where the extra "n" came from! Lol... Oh, well! Thanks for watching and confirming that we're saying it correctly! -Matt
There's been like a caterpillar epidemic in the valley the last two years or so, they keep eating all the leaves in the spring so the trees have looked bare. North Conway in particular. It's ruining the fall foliage around here, hope they're not around next May.
Nice video btw, glad you guy's enjoyed it. It's too bad about the food situation though, you should have tried Cafe Noche in Conway, great Mexican restaurant with a cool atmosphere inside. I would say Big Dave's bagel & Deli, but they close at 3 as well. Voted best bagles in the state of NH, and were just recently on Guy Fieri's "Diners Drive-ins and Dives" on Food Network. Everything on their menu is amazing, and "Wicked Fresh burgers" is another place that you would have loved, the owner won a episode of "chopped" on the food network himself, their burgers are probably the best I've ever had. The Muddy Moose is decent, but just really any other restaurant, nothing too special. Although the inside is crazy cool looking.
Agh man... Hate to hear about the caterpillar epidemic! Hopefully that doesn't last much longer. Yea, the food situation was not ideal... I think it was a combination of small town and the pandemic. I don't know how we missed Wicked Fresh Burgers! I just looked them up and they look amazing! Oh well... Next time! Thanks for the recommendations! And yea, the Muddy Moose didn't look like anything that was going to blow us away, but we always like to support local... Unfortunately our schedule didn't allow for it this time. Thanks so much for watching! -Matt
Me and Stacy's hometown conway area it always hard to get food in conway area
Oh that’s awesome! Really?! Well, I’m glad to hear it wasn’t just the day that we were there! Lol… Thanks for watching!😊
Yes I knew should have gotten a DQ dude so good
What month did you guys go? How’s the weather?
This was filmed on October 13th, and the weather was great... a little warmer than we would have liked, but still nice! It got up to the high 70's while we were there, but that wasn't typical for that time of year. I hope this helps! Thanks for watching!
💥 Guys, on what day/week of September/October did you shoot this beautiful video?
Hey!! Thanks so much for watching! This was filmed on October 13th, 2021.
Where did you get the leaf guide booklet?
Our hotel had it in their lobby! I’m sure a lot of places have them around that time :) hope that helps. 💗🍁🍂
Are you guys coming to Connecticut?
You better believe it! 🎉🎉
I Hate coffee also!
did you rent a car? Any suggestion? Thanks❤
Hi Nina! Thanks so much for watching! To answer your question, yes, we rented a car. Having a vehicle is necessary to get around in this area. We visited Vermont, New Hampshire, and Maine on this trip. We flew in and out of Manchester-Boston Regional Airport. Hope that helps!
I got married at Sabbaday Falls.
Oh wow! I bet that was absolutely stunning! 💗👌🏼
The 603
video travel good
Thanks so much, Patrick!🥰
I'm gonna guess that your favorite NFL team are the Titans, your favorite MLB team are the Cardinals, your favorite NBA team are the Grizzlies, and your favorite NHL team are the Predators.
The only thing is that you said Kangamangus wrong, only a few New Englanders would know, but it’s fine. 😂😂
Hahaha we tried! 🤣🤷🏼♀️ thanks for watching! 👍🏼
It isn't a trip on the Conway Scenic Railroad if a quarter of the way in you aren't cranky and regretting getting on a train that literally goes nowhere.
🤣🤣🤣
What is that intro song
I'm gonna guess that Matt is a Scorpio and Natalie is a Capricorn.
FYI - The word “chai” is actually the Hindi word for “tea,” so to say "chai tea" is to say "tea tea." Drop the redundancy and just call it chai. We know what you mean. :)
You're not wrong! Lol... Unfortunately, I think you're gonna have to take that up with nearly every coffee shop in the US that has "Chai Tea" on the menu. 😂 In their defense, (as "wrong" as it may be) "chai" has become synonymous with the specific flavor of the tea (Masala Chai/Spice Tea) more so than just the black tea that it's made from. Funny how things get lost in translation and then just become the norm in a culture! Lol... Anyway... Thanks for watching, and we'll try to correct our chai redundancies moving forward! 😂👍
Hm pronounce the highway rght
Haha… Thanks for watching!😊
I don't like coffee at all.
learn how to pronounce Kangamagus. Not Mungus
👍
The pronunciation and spelling of Kangamangus is Ka (short a) ga (ahhh) ma (short a as in apple) nggus.
It’s actually spelled “Kancamagus”… There’s no “n” between the “a” and the “g”. So the pronunciation is “Kan-kuh-MAH-guhs”. Thanks so much for watching!😊
@@AdventuresofMattandNat Yes, that is correct, however, it a regional thing to put in the "n" sound.
@@vcorcoranXXXX ohhh that’s so interesting! Thanks for sharing!
NE is very strange, especially MA. You have Worcester than is pronounced WISTA; Haverhill that is pronounced Haavrill and Scituate is Sitchuwit. LOL
Pronounced "Kanga- Maine-Gus" " "cain-ka-MAW-gus"......LOL
🤷🏻♂️After multiple conversations about this through the years, I’m not sure anyone knows how to pronounce it really! Lol🤣… From kancamagushighway.com-> “The Kancamagus Highway, also known as "The Kanc," is often misspelled and mis-pronounced Kangamangus Highway, Kangumangus Hiway or Kancamangus Highway. The correct way pronounce Kancamagus is "Kank-ah-mah-gus." “🤷🏻♂️
Thanks for watching! 😊
I disliked this video because you blatantly broke the law using your drone in the National Forest. I will also report you. Learn the rules guys! No drones within 1/4 mile of all roads, trail heads, and parking lots. I suppose you did this in National Parks too where they are banned everywhere? PS also banned in all NH State Parks.
Hey Mike! I totally understand your frustration. As a Part 107 Certified Drone Pilot I regularly see drone laws being blatantly ignored/broken and it drives me crazy. Anytime you see drone footage in our videos that may be questionable it is VERY likely that it is stock footage that was purchased 100% legally. I’m very careful to research drone laws of specific areas before each flight. As a fellow drone enthusiast, thank you for caring about drone laws. And thanks for watching! -Matt
