That $3.53 per gallon you complained about is starting to sound pretty good now!
Tell me about it! Just filled my Acura $69!
$5.45 gallon in California
@@SunshineGirlz Kinda miss that $5.45 don'tcha...
I feel bad that you missed out on the beauty and bounty of Long Island. Driving through like that, especially along the rural north fork off season then onto the highway, doesn’t afford any of the quaint, lovely, fun, and delicious attractions here. It’s nice to have a resident show you around in places like LI, so you can enjoy it.
Hi Robert, we live down the Jersey shore and really enjoyed your video! The Lobster 🦞house is the best! And the reason the Wildwood sign says "Wildwoods" is because there are 3 sections to Wildwood.
North Wildwood, Wildwood and Wildwood Crest.
Thanks for showing NJ for the beautiful state it is!
And little West Wildwood.
It's a shame you didn't see how really beautiful Long Island is. So many beautiful places, even on the north fork where you drove through.
Robert,I give you credit,I would never attempt to drive my RV through the city.
I also live on Long Island, the place that you went to visit in Orient point, I actually go there daily. Unfortunately, you missed a lot of great things on Long Island. There are so many beautiful parks and other great things that you missed. Hopefully next time you come down do you visit those beautiful sites.
Long Island has a lot to offer.
many nice places - I will never visit such states so these videos will be my only exposure to them
Nice profile picture, mate!
@@TheUglyGnome Glory to Ukraine
After I watch one of your videos, as I'm working on my computer I'll just play your videos in the background and enjoy the smooth, relaxing music. Great videos; thanks for all the time you're putting into them to make them high quality.
Wow....you went through my hometown of Point Pleasant Beach !!!!!
Great episode Robert. My and my roommates watch you every Sunday and none of us have ever seen this area of the US before. Greetings from Colorado.
Robert , the next time you attempt to travel across Long Island you can Boondock in our driveway. I live on the South Shore of Long Island with a driveway that you could park your trailer with water hookup and 30 amp service. I live 20 minutes from South Shore Beaches and 5 mins from a Ferry in Bellport NY. The hardest park of living on Long Island is leaving and coming back because you have to get over the bridges in and out of NY city.
Agreed! You have to budget an extra 30 minutes when driving your rig!
It is sad that while covering much of Long Island he saw so little of it. Greenport would have been a nice town to visit and he could also have camped down at Smith's Point and enjoyed the ocean.
I'll be in the area this summer and would LOVE to take you up on the offer! Especially with hookups.
How do get in contact with you? Thanks buddy
We used to spend every summer at our Grandparents in Springs. My uncle over in Amagansett & another out in Montauk. Such good memories. Trouble was the traffic these days. Guess it’s true, you can’t go home again
My second watch. Great tour. I’ve been from Cape May to Jersey city visiting all the lighthouses on the way up. Loved the Sandy Hook one. The twin sisters of Navesink lighthouses were cool. Museum inside. Up on a hill. In Monmouth.
Your videos never get old ❤
Robert this was a tremendous video. We sit here in Northern New Brunswick today with the temp at -7C (about 20F) and looking out at 3 feet of snow still in the backyard. But getting our trailer out soon and hitting the trail. Gas may be expensive right now, but life is short, so the plan is to ignore that and roll. Thankfully borders are now open, so we can enjoy your beautiful country as well as ours. This area you have covered in today's video is definitely in the plans in the coming months. thank you so much for keeping us informed on your travels
Thanks for sharing Robert
Hey Robert… Thank you so much for all those road views… 😊💐👍.
Loved this so much. Can't wait til next Sunday.
So interesting and the music fits the video. Amazing you can do it all, bravo!
Loved the video. Thanks so much. Can't wait for the next one.
Another great video, And the song you used when crushing through NJ with you and Chuchi is so smooth. Great job Robert!
Hi Robert. They call it The Wildwoods because there are 3...North Wildwood (where the boardwalk is), Wildwood Crest, and Wildwood. We were at the Lobster House the day before Valentine's Day after we left the campground to check on the NoBo. Its our go to restaurant when we go to Cape May. Sunset Beach is named so because of its gorgeous sunsets and usually gets pretty busy in the summer before dusk. I posted videos of Wildwood and Cape May in winter. Hope you enjoyed your stay at the Jersey Shore.
As always, Robert, I love this video. You were in my old stomping grounds of Brooklyn. The view of Manhattan never gets old. See you on the road.
thank you robert for that video
being a long time viewer cant wait for next video
spent most of my life in del md alot of trips hugging coast to obx
and myrtle beach love the bay bridge tunnel and ocracoke,nc
A great video of the coast, but a little stressful in the Bronx. Always fun and informative, so continue on and always be safe.
Beautiful ride along the coast - Thanks Robert!!
Robert, great episode. Enjoyed watching every moment of it and saw parts of the New York metro area that I had never seen before even though I’ve lived here my entire life. Thanks again. Keep up the great work.
Oh Robert you drove right by my house in Brooklyn, my borough actually showed up nice on camera. Glad you enjoyed the experience yeah the traffic is totally headache our last mayor made it even worse but it was a city to itself upon a time. Wildwood is my getaway every memorial. Safe travels.
OMG, Robert! That drive through NY! Better you than me my friend! : - )
Nice to see you take the time to see my hometown, Oceanside; we actually have another great brewery (Barrier Brewing) right near the place you visited. You must have passed it going there.
I’m riding in my RV. Cause I’m free. Your travels are a great stress reliever for me. Thank you.
Love your videos robert enjoy all your travels and can’t wait till live chat Fridays to see what’s happening
Awesome editing and narration..
Love the HD Drone flights. Cheers!
Excellent episode Robert 👌
oh my!! You drove right by the school I work at in New London. It really is a charming area. Someday I'm going to take the ferry over too. Mohegan allows overnight RV parking, but my favorite casino stop is Foxwoods a bit further north. They've got a terrific Native American museum there with a cafe that serves some tribal inspired dishes. Loved seeing my home state in your video. Hopefully you'll come back and have some fun soon. Safe travels!
I can’t wait to see your next video! We love Assateague 🐴!!! We make it a point to go tent camping there at least once a year. We had an amazing experience there last year, where the kids literally woke up to horses outside of our tent ⛺️ right before we made breakfast 🍳!
Great video Robert !!!!!! That toll bridge to cape may is one of my favorite rides on my motorcycle.
1:26 Classy move, Robert. Mama always said, "If you can't say anything good, don't say anything at all." 🙂
This brings back lots of memories. I've visited relatives at, day-tripped to, and vacationed in a lot of the places that show up here. If you ever are back up this way, be sure to take the ferry out to Block Island, or check out the submarine museum. Thanks for another great video!
Loved it. Thank you Robert
Just when I think you can't outdo yourself...loved the LI/Brooklyn drives. Glad you got one good LI meal, have to try one of the many great diners next time. If I win the lottery, I want to summer in Wildwood staying week to week in those fabulous motels and travel in my RV the rest of the time.
It was nice to review N.J. again. I use to live there but I live in Florida now. Thanks Robert. Hope you go back in the summer.
Awesome video! I’ve never thought about going to the New England area but after watching this series now it’s on my list of places to go.
Thanks Robert, that was fun, interesting and informative!
Nj residents here- Cape May is consistently voted the best town in NJ but it is very special around the holidays when all the Victorian houses are decorated & you can go on walking tours and mansion tours, see the tree at congress hall. Check it out if you find yourself in the area later in the season 👍
This is my favorite video that you’ve ever made I live in Connecticut but I go to all the places that you’re visiting including the Jersey shore which is coming up in this episode
If you can, definitely come back to Long Island and spend a few days. There’s so much to see, the south shore beaches, the Gold Coast and military history as well.
I have been on a cruise ship going under the Verrazano Narrows Bridge. Love that your hugging the coast. I have easten at the Lobster House. My favorite meal there is the chicken Francais. It is always excellent.
Very fun and interesting to see. After 2 years of lockdown we need this. Great Travels Robert!
My heart started going out to you in New Jersey. Being very familiar with the North Carolina Outer Banks, I knew then that you had relatively little to look forward to going down the coast. LOTS of similar little towns and houses on the Atlantic coast.
Enjoyed seeing all the places I’ve been too so many times in the past. Thanks 👍🎅🏻
Great video! Thanks Robert.
So nice to see as we did the same itinerary and as part of our 2021 roadtrip. Long Island definitely deserves a longer visit. We especially like the North Fork. Just surprised you didn’t stop by Asbury Park in NJ, the home of Jersey Shore musicians like Bruce Springsteen, Bon Jovi and Southside Johnny!
Asbury is the hidden gem of Jersey shore!
So enjoyable. Thank you ❤️
Hi Robert..wow what a joy to see you in NJ..I love Sandy Hook and Sea Bright. Yes, Wildwood is a ghost town off-season. Cape May is beautiful at Christmas and glad you enjoyed your meal at the Lobster House. Take care..peg stump
Robert, after watching many of your videos on Florida, it was wonderful hearing your perspective of my area on Long Island. Yes, there are easier ways to get to the Verrazano. Love your comments going through Brooklyn.
Another enjoyable blog
This was Great. I have watched Robert travel all over the country and now he was in my neck of the woods. I live about 30 minutes away from Southold NY but spent most of my life In Bay Ridge Brooklyn where he got on the Verrazzano bridge.
Glad you took this route with ferry’s. My plan and nice to preview. Yes, all along coastal Northeast it becomes ghost towns after Labor Day. Not like Florida😊
Hola Robert.
Thanks for featuring my beautiful Jersey in your video. If you ever do another crossing on the New London ferry, try to ride on the boat that was used during the Normandy invasion
I live on Long Island and found it interesting that you drove here, thanks for that
"Thank you" Robert for a GREAT video on my Sunday morning .......
Great video Robert! A lot of these places we have been to. We also learned casino food, Mohegan sun, isn't that good. All over priced too. You've driven down roads that I wouldn't think of with an rv. You did very good. We both enjoyed your video, thank you.
Awesome , Thanks Robert
Great video! If you ever get back up to Massachusetts , consider touring the coast especially around the Cape Ann area. Gloucester , a historic fishing village and also Rockport. Many classic New England towns along there. And don't forget Cape Cod. A bit touristy in the summer, but the fall or early spring (even winter) are a great time to visit. A lot of hidden gems and beautiful beaches. Cape Cod National Seashore is a must also. Beautiful lighthouses and seacoast.
this is a very great trip you did this year
Good Morning, Brother Robert!
Great vlog, made me very homesick. I used to have an ice cream shop on the Wildwood Boardwalk. The sign says Wildwoods because there's North Wildwood, Wildwood & Wildwood Crest.
Great video as always. Love the comment about gas prices ;-)
We used to say in Seaside Park New Jersey exit 82A-B off the Garden State Parkway on route 37 down towards the bridge and it was an amazing place to be in the summer
Robert you missed Asbury Park! Amazing structures there. Stone pony convention hall.. Casino. Downtown. Maybe next time.
Just got in from a trip & wow!! Enjoyed this from start to finish. Thank you as always 👍☺✌ 💘 🍺
I love on Long Island. Have family in orient point. Love it here. Great video!❤️
I live in a camper on Long Island for 3 years. Two campgrounds are open full time. Indian Island and Cathedral Pines. A ton of campgrounds on Long Island, just hard to get spots because they can be booked up .
Welcome to the Jersey shore 👍🏻 We have some really nice coastal areas. The best on the east coast outside of Florida in my opinion. During the summer these places transform from ghost towns to insane amounts of visiters.
Despite bad reputation. The shore has a lot of nice places 👍🏻
Coming off Long Island into Brooklyn , you could have taken the Van Wyke Expressway north to the BQE , Brooklyn Queens Expressway west, to the Verrizano Bridge. It takes commercial traffic , no height issues at all. No lights or side streets. Way faster than your local route. Just sayin...
I've never been on the east coast. Safe travels!!!!
I wish I would have known you were here!! I am right off the LIE/exit 56 and you could have parked your camper and taken a tour in the truck and enjoyed the views! Next time!! Hamptons and Sag Harbor are better now….and never easy with a camper attached.
Another great video Robert, thank you. Oh, and just so you know the River Thames in London, UK is pronounced TEMMS.
Can’t believe we missed you. We live around the Corner from your passed through in Lynbrook.
Was pretty awesome seeing my hometown as you drove through and then to stop at one of my favorite vacation spots Cape May and Wildwood. Next time you're in Wildwood you have to try seven Mile brewery. It's not far from the brewery that you went to and they have a lot of great beers, I've tried all the breweries in that area and that is definitely my top choice. Can't wait to see the next video was thinking about taking my RV on the ferry to Delaware.
Glad to see you visited my state of NJ and home county of Monmouth County. I’m now in a different part of NJ but glad you gave the shore a try. Of course it is best to visit in summer to see the full experience.
You should have went to the Twin Lights State Historic Site in Atlantic Highland but maybe would be hard to drive up there with a trailer lol.
Im an Ocean City New Jersey local. They call it "Wildwoods" because its made up of 3 sections: North Wildwood, Wildwood and Wildwood Crest". Love your videos.
I enjoy this trip!
Robert you gotta visit the Cape May region again in season. If you like breweries-check out Slack Tide, Coho, Ludlam Island, 7 Mile, Bucket Brigade and Cape May Brewing!!!
Helpful tip for next time: you can drive on the Belt Parkway with your rig, straight from Sunrise Highway around Springfield Gardens (Queens).
Fantastic Thank you 🥰🥰
Although the north fork is lovely, the ocean views are on the south fork. And yes, driving on long island is a challenge, with or without a camper.
With the view of Manhattan, it reminds me your northeast trip years ago. I thought you have a camera on the side of minitini like on that trip
Sadly we watched this video a little too late, when you were on Long Island and we’re passing through Oceanside you came within blocks of my house. It would have been so good to have a beer with you at the South Shore Brewery. My wife and I have been watching your videos for a couple of years maybe the next time you come to Long Island we could get together.
Very informative and interesting video. All good to know; we’ll be sticking to the Midwest and farther west after seeing these videos z😳
The airplane you saw was a C-17A Globemaster III out of Dover Air Force Base. I was a mechanic on them for 18 years.
Jersey Shore, my stomping grounds. Go to Wildwood every year in Sept for the NJ State Fireman's Convention.
Robert - We live in Lewes DE & you could have stayed in our driveway and explored Lewes & Rehoboth Beach but I guess in the next video you’ll just be passing through on your way S to the Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel. Hope to someday meet up somewhere.
Safe travels.
Great video. I wish i new you were in Oceanside. I live one town over in Long Beach. I would have loved to show you the town of LB and our beaches..LI is a nightmare to navigate as far as traffic.
Wow watched your video last night!! OOMMGG you were literally in our town, well not the industrial area you were in but a nicer area in Oceanside. Long Island is definitely not RV friendly!! We have a class A and it’s rough!! Anyway you did GREAT navigating kudos to you!! Wishing you all the best and God Bless 😀🤙🌸❤️
Wildwood, Wildwood Crest, West Wildwood, and North Wildwood., ie the Wildwoods
Thanks for making NJ look decent. :)
Love it!
when i saw Seaside Heights i thought of Frankie Valli, we saw Jersey Boys here in Chicago and they mentioned they started out at Seaside, what a beautiful area, i love the seasides...
The Long Island Expressway would have been the fastest route to travel, but not the best way to see all the different towns. South shore near the great south bay/ and ocean parkway with the south shore ocean beaches are great routes to see the coast. Also so many beautiful areas on the North Shore to explore further west in Suffolk county and in Nassau.
Next time around hit the beach plum in Hampton NH very good lobster rolls and best clam chowder I've had in the US so far! Great video by the way!
So disappointed you didn’t stop in Brooklyn for some Italian food and pastries. Also should have made a quick stop at Fort Wadsworth. It was visible on your right entering Staten Island. You’re still the best Robert!
