After 4 incredible months in Atlantic Canada, it's time for us to head back to the US! But before we crossed the border, we had one final spot we wanted to explore: Saint John, New Brunswick, Canada's oldest incorporated city. We explored its historic streets, ate our way through the city market, checked out a unique phenomenon, and more!

As a Canadian, all I say is goodbye and thank you for the visit.
I just wanted to say the editing of your videos are so nicely done! I have been watching for over a year now, and this channel has become one of my absolute favorite travel blogs to watch every week. I can't wait to see where you go next!
Thank you so much! ❤️
A quick Saint John visit but you did us proud. You packed a lot in during a few hours. Hopefully your travels bring you back this way in the future. Safe travels!
I totally agree with you. I visited Atlantic Canada back in September, 2023. Absolutely stunning, beautiful and extremely underrated. Going back there next year during the summer. Have a great holiday season.🎉😊
Thank you! ❤️
Thanks for dropping by! You did a great job highlighting the beauty of the maritime provinces.
Great job showing off Saint John!! Glad you stopped and did a terrific showcase of the city 🎉!!
Thank you for paying a visit. Fantastic video. Thanks for sharing. 👍
I have really enjoyed this series! This part of Canada is so beautiful. Thank you for taking us along.
Felt a little sad today watching the video seeing you guys leave Canada after 4 months. Felt like we had been on that journey with you. That signs of a great job documenting everything! :) Merry Christmas to you guys!
It was bitter sweet to leave! We had such a wonderful time. Thank you and thanks for watching! Merry Christmas!
So enjoyed your videos from Canada and glad that you had such a wonderful time, and thank you for taking us along! As a Canadian, very proud of all the beautiful places you featured! Safe trip home!
Thank you so much and thank you for watching!
That area in NB is where I'm from.. the people of Calais are so wonderful!! Thanks for making me homesick!
I live in Saint John, New Brunswick, thank you for shoe casing my city, I have watched your journey of the Atlantic provinces, and your presentation was excellent, have a safe journey home
Thanks for stopping in to my home town of Saint John!
You guys did such a great job covering this area of Canada. Cheers 🍻
Thanks so much!
Love from Canada … fully enjoyed entire trip with u … ending with our anthem 🇨🇦 ❤
Thanks for this. You did our city proud. I will need to watch your other videos.
Thank you and thanks for watching!
Yay glad you got home to usa safely. Canada looks amazing
Such a cool video series. As a person who now lives in Atlantic Canada, Newfoundland. I'm glad you two had a wonderful time. Come on back when ya can.
Fun fact. There used to be a jet boat that would take people through the reversing falls on a pretty intense ride.
Oh now that would be fun!
I am so so so glad you enjoyed this part of Canada! Thanks for visiting us!
Hello, my wife and I just discovered your channel. Excellent stuff! We currently live on the island of Bonaire and travel 6-7 months of the year. We're currently in New Hampshire and headed for the Maritimes for six weeks starting on Friday. Your shows have given us lots of ideas. I lived on Kauai in the 80s and Utila in the 90s and have been to 68 countries, many as a backpacking hippie. Luckily, we can afford to travel a bit more upscale these days. We're both Scuba divers and have dived at most of the best places in the world. We're limited to 6-8 mile hikes but still give it a go!
Very cool! We hope y'all have a wonderful time! If you need more ideas we have lots of Canada content on our website! adventuresofaplusk.com/canada
We've loved watching this 4-month journey! Can't wait to see what you have planned for next year!
Great video guys! We went there in October and loved it!
A little sad to see you leave us! So enjoyed learning more about our eastern provinces! The fun and photography is boundless! Looking forward to your next adventures! Thanks again! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
Great video! Beautiful re-cap pictures of the trip. Love your amazing photography! Bless you on your way home. There's no place like home. ❤
Safe travels folks........ glad you enjoyed your stay in Canada, come back anytime.
Wow, what an incredible journey through Atlantic Canada! 🌍❄ From snowy surprises to exploring historic St. John, you've captured the essence of your last day perfectly.

Hey A&K!!!! You two really do love your "Hugs in a mug". 🙂
Thank you for all of those fantastic views in Canada.
Welcome back to the US!!
Thanks for sharing all this trip on Atlantic Canada, always a pleasure to watch your videos ;-)

It was so fun to watch your adventures in Canada! Hope you had a safe trip back to Texas! I cannot wait to see where you take us next, thank you so much!
What a wonderful series. Clearly there was tons of research into the areas you were visiting. The agent we had crossing into Maine at the end of September asked none of the usual questions, but wanted to talk about our small dog and visiting Newfoundland. Good luck with your next adventure.
So glad you guys enjoyed your visit to Atlantic Canada as a Newfoundlander who have done a little travel in the area I've learned so much about the area from your videos I want to revisit them. Looking forward to seeing your future videos , take care.
That’s awesome! Thank you and thanks for watching!
Thank you both for your loving and full of care tour of a part of my country. You did us good and for that I'm thankful. My wife does not watch online videos, period. I caught her watching your back catalogue the other day. That is an impressive accomplishment.
That means a lot to us! Thank you!
You did a marvelous job showcasing our Atlantic provinces! Thank you for your respectful and knowledgeable content. I learned a lot and I am from Nova Scotia. Bravo! And bon voyage!
Awesome! Thank you!
I’ve enjoyed your travels. Especially Saint John, you were great ambassadors for us. Thank you. Keep travelling!
Thank you and thanks for watching!
Amazing photography! Some of the finest I've seen on TH-cam. And what a great presentation on Saint John.
Wow, thank you!
Welcome back was a great 4 months of videos for sure makes us want to go there and explore travel safe guys
❤️
Hello Adventurers 😎😎, that Market in Saint John reminds me of Charleston Market in Charleston, SC. Really Cool Place. I cant wait to see what's Next! Awesome Video!
Happy Holidays A+K ❄️ Can’t wait to see which continent y’all will be in! Sending much love from Florida 🌴
Loved watching your videos of Atlantic Canada even though I am from here. Glad you enjoyed the region. Merry Christmas.

We’ve followed you guys for a long time (since New River Gorge & Red River Gorge SP) & I must say that this trip to the Canadian Atlantic Provinces has been our favorite. Such beautiful scenery & great places. Keep up the good work.
Thank you and thanks for sticking with us! It means a lot!
Enjoyed your videos from this trip in my country🇨🇦 excited to see your next adventure. Passez un beau temps des Fêtes en famille😊💕
Thank you! You too!
Great video, we moved to Saint John alm 2:25 ost 2 years ago from Ontario, Truly loved all your descriptions of the city and going to try the dulse for sure now, Safe travels, now following your channel, Thanks
I'm up for coffee and all that food, where ever I'm traveling. Good bokeh on this video shot. Thanks for sharing those recap shots of canyons and cliff in New Brunswick... One of these days, I'll get my car from western coast to St. John's.
Who knew eastern Canada was so amazing? I live in Minnesota so I’m a lot closer to Canada and need to spend more time there. Thanks again for all the cool videos, everything look so beautiful as you film it. The song at the end almost made me stand up and salute the TV😂 Cheers!
haha thank you so much and thanks for watching!
I thank you for your videos!!! You are excellent content creators who produce stunningly beautiful videos.
Thank you and thanks for watching!
Awesome end to an awesome trip.............Happy Trails🦮🦮
Glad you are back 🇺🇸
A few years ago, my wife & I were camping in Fundy National Park. My parents, since my dad was from St John, insisted we go to the market and pick them up some particular cheese, a pound of it. And it stunk...lol. While strolling around we picked up a pan of brownies from one of the vendors. That evening, back at our campsite and after a delicious steak over the fire dinner, we each had a brownie. Then another. Yes, we ate them all. The next morning it was back to St. John and another pan of brownies. Absolutely the best brownies we've ever had...lol.
Yeah,. before my dad joined the navy in 1952, he worked on one of the harbor pilot boats. He asked another guy to take his shift so he could go to a dance with my mother-to-be, who he just started seeing. That night, around 3 in the morning, a ship T-bone the pilot boat, the bow of the ship crashing through the boat's hull right where my dad's bunk was, killing the guy who took his place as he slept.
am from saint john just saw this video hope you had a good time
When I saw you were going to Saint John, I was hoping you would go to the city market and try dulse. As a native New Brunswicker, Thank you for showing off the Maritimes to the world.
You help me to plan my trip in my own country! Thank you. Hope to see you in Quebec soon ;)
Excellence: That's what you produce.
I've enjoyed the Atlantic Canada series very much, and I learned a lot about the east coast of Canada (I'm a Canadian west-coaster).
Thank you!
Welcome home !! I hope one day you will be back to Seattle too!
Sad to see you go but enjoyed every little nugget of your Atlantic Canada road trip. I grew up in the Maritimes but embarrassed to say I've never been to Saint John. I'll be sure to stop there next time I drive east from Toronto.
Dulce is is one of my favs. I grew up on it very good for you
You're probably already back in TExas, wishing you a warm and cozy Christmas.
Thank you! You as well!
Sorry to see this series end; but, looking forward to your next adventure. Thanks for showcasing our beautiful Atlantic provinces!! How did Kona like the snow? It's hard to keep our 2 pups in the house after a snow fall. All they want to do is be outside playing in the snow.
Kona LOVES the snow! She hasn't seen much of it in her life, but when she gets to see it she loves it! Thanks and thanks for watching!
Welcome back home 🎉 🇺🇸
I was SURE you were going to visit St Andrew’s in this last video. That’s the only jewel of the Atlantic provinces you missed out on. It’s right by the Maine border. Next time for sure ! Highly recommended!
We heard mixed things about it to be honest. We’ll have to check it out for ourselves next time! Thanks!
VERY well done you guys. You've done the maritimes proud.
From an adventure video standpoint I think that their visit timing was perfect for Atlantic Canada. I live in New Brunswick, and our weather was much warmer than normal in October. However, on the 29th of the month things got significantly colder. I'm assuming that they likely crossed into the US around Halloween. I enjoyed following A+K on their trip through our region.
Yes Them borders 🇺🇸 can be tough😮..welcome back. 🙏🏽 #canada is very nice.
That’s my hometown 🎉
Hello Adventurers😎😎, Yeah there's snow on the van and you wanna GET THE HECK OUT OF HERE😊😊😊. I can't blame you ADAM with all that snow on top of the van.
Canada is such a beautiful country.
We visited St. John and visited a lot of the same spots. I just ran out of Dulse, guess we need to go back.
haha watching someone try Dulce for the first time. I grew up in toronto with much family in Digby NS. We often had big garbage bags of the stuff in the freezer.
It was an interesting flavor! Thanks for watching!
@@AdventuresofAplusK Indeed, it is. Choc full of Iron. It's basically iron and salt, and sometimes crunch, sometimes not. Great vid! Im looking forward to spending time in Saint John later this month. For me, the ferry across to Digby is as good as any part of the trip.
You can bring most anything back to the USA by way of groceries. We shop in St john on a regular basis.
Thanks for allowing me to discover a part of my country I don’t know well enough (just did Cape Breton in September though). What’s your next trip? There’s plenty to visit here in Ontario and in Quebec where I’m from.
Thanks and thanks for watching! We’re excited to visit more of Canada in the future! Stay tuned!
Thank you for the excellent vlogs. I am impressed with your local research and taking the effort to learn how to pronounce names. Hopefully in the fututre, you will have the opportunity to tour Ontario / Quebec. Cheers 🇨🇦
Thank you! We are very excited to visit Quebec one day! Ontario will have to wait until they get rid of their silly pit bull rules
@@AdventuresofAplusKYour doggie a bit bull?
Yes she’s part pit bull
@AdventuresofAplusK Ontario does have a total province ban but municipalities across the country have bans including numerous in Quebec and Atlantic Canada. Germany also has a ban, as do other European countries.
not to be weird i am 90% sure i saw you shooting that shot of the saint john sign 6 months ago 🤣 i often am at the bus stop a little up the street.
Haha awesome!
.
Love saint John
There every weekend.
I recommend saint Andrews
I would say cross to ferry point and say hi but I'm out of town for 2 weeks.
Enjoy
Hey thanks for watching! This was filmed a couple months ago so we're long gone! Thanks and thanks for watching!
Would love to see you guys do another Hawaii series 🍍🌺🏝️🍺
We’d love to go back! Unfortunately we don’t have any plans to go anytime soon
You've been to all 50 states now, and spent a lot of time in Canada. How many provinces left to visit? Can't wait to see where you are headed next!
We have Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Nunavut, Ontario, and Quebec left!
When I was there we used to call it downtown. Uptown was the north end of
That’s what the tourism department and BIA calls it so that’s what we called it 😊 the area this map shows is the area we are referring to

Ohhh WOW, Can you share that with me...Please?? Can I finish this for you Àdam and Kathryn 😂😊😊...where's my ice cream 😊😊.
With the sound off, I would have thought you were in Portland, Maine.
