Discovering Vermont's Breathtaking Fall Foliage: A UK Couple's Journey to USA!

- A broken clock is still correct twice a day and just like that clock I have been sitting on our last honeymoon vlog for sooo long that it became relevant again - because YOU PEEPS if you're into the whole cozy autumn aesthetic, you must keep watching! This is the Hallmark produced, Gilmore Girls inspired, pinterest board worthy romantic vlog from your favourite Scotland based couple! .)
During our five nights in Vermont we managed to visit Stowe, Burlington, Lake Champlain, Ludlow and much more, and we'd like you to tag along! Plus, if you're looking for tips on what to see, where to visit and where to eat, this video might give you some inspiration! Leaf peeping time starts NOW!
For reference, this was the second half of October, just around 18th/22nd or so - most people were telling us the fall foliage was already past its peak, but if this is "past peak fall foliage" then I think I wouldn't be able to withstand the intensity of the peak autumn colours!
Peeps? More like leaf peeps!

It's always hard leaving a place that's touched your heart,...I experience that every time I leave Scotland,...tugs at the feels.
😊🥲😊
Doesn’t matter where in the world it is, a Kakibot vlog just makes me happy!
I live just outside Boston and have been to Stowe many times. Vermont is one of my favorite states. The nice thing about living in New England is that the New England states are just a few hours away. Now I’m very excited because in nine days I leave for Scotland, starting in Edinburgh. I’ve been watching your videos for helpful tips and insights. Enjoy the rest of your time here!
I love seeing my home state from an outside perspective.
Vermont is my absolute favorite state no matter the season! So much natural beauty. Grew up going on road-trips with my family to Middlebury, it holds such a special place in my heart. Love your videos!!
Wonderful video! I live in the States and your video is a good advertisement for Vermont! I've never been there but now I want to go someday. Thank you and Simon for sharing your honeymoon.
Thank you for joining us, Darlene! We're really hoping we'll get to explore beyond New England in the upcoming years .) which states would you recommend?
@@Kakibot I live in Colorado and I would recommend visiting. Utah and New Mexico are also great states to visit.
Thank you so much
I saw this in my feed and thought "Ooh, I love to see people visiting my home state!" And then I realized how close you were to my home town. And then I saw my sister in the background of one of the shots! 😄
You’re joking!!! Small state I guess 😅
Been watching your Channel for a couple of years. Welcome to New England and ESPECIALLY in the Fall.....and on your honeymoon? Excellent Choice!
However......Driving through Smugglers Notch at night is not a single track road! However there are Moose... a Larger version of Deer in the Highlands as if that was possible! It IS...AND your driving on the Proper Side Of The Road!🤣Oh the Horror!
Born and Bred New England....New Hampshire/Massachusetts's border. VT Route 100 is Still my favorite Drive and I've been doing that for well over 50 years. Waitsfield, Rochester, Ludlow.....My "adopted hood". Wonderful that you were here when you were. Fall In New England? Yeah.
The Weston Country Store....Perfect. Central Vermont??? Well at this point you know!
No, no, no. It's "the hills are alive with the sound of MOOsic :D ahaha. lovely vlog!
I felt that emotion my last night in the UK back in June. It was my first trip over there and I visited London, Edinburgh, York, Nottingham, and Derby. I was definitely feeling the emotions and I can't wait to get back to Edinburgh and London. Primarily Edinburgh. I live in Pennsylvania and still haven't been to Vermont or New Hampshire yet. I've been to Boston many times, though. That Focal Banger beer in the fridge is bloody amazing! I wish it was available in PA!
The best kind of karma is extra-two-donuts karma :) Those lovely autumn colors! Thanks for sharing!
Looks like you had a wonderful adventure, I especially loved Simon's bear-getting subplot. So sweet! 🥰
It's an excellent bear! Glad you got it after all!
I hadn't even seen the video and I already knew I was going to love it!! and I was right!!
Yusssss I'm glad it has fulfilled your expectations!
You did a wonderful job capturing the beauty of my state!
It's one of my goals for the next, well, ever, to see the land I take for granted as though I were looking through the eyes of others, and your video really helps with that.
So many places I know and love, but also so many places I have yet to fully experience.
Very glad you took Route 100 south. It's a brilliant road to drive, from end to end or anywhere along the way.
Anybody interested in it might also considering zig-zagging a bit along the mountain passes (the gap roads) that run between Routes 100 and 7. Like, take Route 125 from east to west, then cut south on Route 7 for a while, maybe dip down Route 53 along Lake Dunmore and through Satan's Kingdom (rather more pleasant than it sounds), visit the picturesque Town of Brandon (perhaps lunch at Cafe Provence, or a beer tasting at Foley Brothers Brewing), then cut back west to east on Route 73 and rejoin Route 100.
Just make sure you check the current state of all those picturesque little towns! Some of them -- Ludlow and Weston particularly -- were incredibly damaged by historic summer flooding this year.
I felt that same level of emotion when leaving Edinburgh this summer. I just loved Scotland so much and I loved your New England series.
I've recently binged the series and was super sad to realise the Vermont video wasn't out yet! So this is a real treat ✨️
Aw! For real? Makes me so happy to hear someone has enjoyed the series!! I’ve been sitting on the last episode for way too long but I guess I was a bit worried to publish it and see it bomb complete with the Scotland loving audience 😅
such cozy fall vibes! loved the video, Kat!
Seems like the whole world is still living somewhere around 30C at the moment, we all need at least artificial autumn vibes 😭 I'm guessing it's still pretty summery in Philly too?
@@Kakibot we’re having close to 37C (100F) every day this week! praying to the autumn gods for mercy!
This was a wonderful experience, and looking back at it I can barely remember the broken leg, or the newly broken toe that occurred in the night not long after the 14:00 mark. Would love to revisit Vermont :)
:O TWO broken limbs!!! Dude, one honeymoon for you, you'd never survive another one!
@@davidpierce3217 Yeah, fearing our next trip, I might lose an eye...
Wonderful video! Very brave of you to drive the Notch at night. I hate doing it during the day. Fun fact, semi-truck drivers are fined over $2000 for driving that route. Why you may ask…because they get stuck.
I’ll have to now check out your other videos.
Beautiful job! I want to plan a trip there now!
Thank you! It’s very much worth it!!
❤Thank you you had a very nice honeymoon 😊
Lovely to see a new post but tbh i got confused, bc I thought it was a current recording - you see, im in Toronto and we are having a heatwave right now - currently 39c 😅 Nevetheless, Ill enjoy watching your travels from your honeymoon ❤
Loved the video and scenery 👌🏻 Vermont is known for being one of the most picturesque states. So glad you got your bear 🐻 😊
attended UVM many years ago... the very best state in the union.....
This was an absolutely delightful video. Perfect timing to save it for us. 100 is a lovely road to take, drove it many years ago. Vermont is one of the best states to get all that beautiful color.
If you are a Walking Dead or Supernatural fan, Jeffrey Dean Morgan has Highland hairy coos on his farm in New York.
Simon, did you have any issues or nervousness with driving on the other side of the road?
Oh I love the bear!
In the U.S. "hot" cider is just that - regular cider that is hot. If you're looking for cider with alcohol in it that is called "hard" cider. :)
Wait, Vermont looks like that already?! It’s mid eighties Fahrenheit there as the day of your posting this! Woof! Looking forward to it finally hitting in the next few weeks here in the Midwest! But the temps aren’t showing any signs of lowering much… 🥵🥵
Edinburgh in July felt like autumn when we were just there-visited a few places in St. James thanks to you! ☺️😊
Ireland’s country roads are white knuckle during the day alone!
no this was last year
Leafs are just starting to turn now.
Hard not to like Vermont in the fall, other than the crowds, of course. You’re correct - Stowe (rhymes with “go”) is the most Hallmark-like town you’re going to find, in the fall or at Christmas.
Beautiful there! I saw you posted 2 weeks ago but when did you go to Stowe? I am planning to go and not sure when would be the right day to see nice fall foliage
This video was taken around the 23rd of October last year - people kept telling us it was a bit past peak, but to us it still looked absolutely perfect!
The first weekend in October is usually my pick for best foliage in Stowe and the surrounding counties!
If you had gone an hour north to Montreal it would be like being back in Edinburgh. The architecture and many things of Scottish origin.
Hopefully one day soon! I'd absolutely love to go to Canada.
It's strange to watch a video and know all of the sites and personally been to all, especially with Stowe as Im from the next town over to I drive through it quite a lot.
What reservoir at the end?
Flavour cemetery 😂😂
I know right, I love the idea!!
I will be there in 2 weeks.
What is preferable to drive route 100 from north to south OR south to north?? I’m currently mapping out my itinerary.
I’m going to be near border of NH/VT in Hanover/Lebanon.
Thanks.
Anybody please share
Your experiences.
I’m having 2 full days in VT.
4 Years Ago I was in USA in Florida with My Mother for 12 Days and See Our Friends
Sounds wonderful, did you enjoy Florida?
@@Kakibot Oh Yes. We went to Animal Sanctuary and Alligator Park at Everglades and to the Market in Immokalee and also We went to the Beach at Naples.
When did you went to this trip ?
This was the second half of October 2022 .)
Hey Kat. Any recommendations for Edinburgh at the beginning of October?
Hmmmm... I imagine spots like Dr Neil's Garden or Lauriston Castle's Japanese garden might be good spots for autumnal fun time, or a walk through Roslin Glen! Or picking up a hot chocolate from Upland Roast for a stroll through the Meadows!
@Kakibot I've only got 1 day available unfortunately during the 1st week of October. The Castle is a must, and I'm wanting a scarf and a tartan blanket. Lots to cram in to 1 day. Visiting from Canada
In that case you probably don't need many recommendations as I imagine the city will just lead you towards lot of interesting spots naturally! I'd say without the need to stay in for a long time, both the National Museum and the National Portrait gallery have absolutely stunning main hall interiors, so you could pop in and out if you're around without spending too much time! Also Greyfriar's Kirkyard might be the autumniest place in the historical centre so I wouldn't miss out on having a little look around there .)
@@Nightwing01010
@Kakibot Thanks Kat. Any recommendations on some good unhealthy food? Street food, chippies, etc? Even some upscale places that aren't too pricey?
@@Nightwing01010 Can't go wrong with some Haggis if you're looking for both local and a bit on the unhealthy side! There's Arcade Bar on Cockburn Street (a bit more posh), or The Haggis Box on the Royal Mile if you're just looking for a wee lunch.
Which month of 2023 is this ?
October 2022!
Hello beautiful women and wenderful People and nice contry ilove this contry
😢where is senator Bernie Sanders and most politician in Vermont and Republican governor Scott and Sanders are popular in Quebec
I knooow trust me there was enough Bernie merch around! Vermont is very proud of him!
@@Kakibot Obama Clinton Pelosi Clyburn told everybody to drop out and back Biden in the primary CNN CNBC ABC MSNBC NBC news bullshit Americans about Biden record and lied about Sanders record Washington post New York times did hit pieces on Sanders campaign and Joe Rogan endorsed senator Bernie Sanders but independents not allow to vote in some democratic primary states and Obama jailed more journalist than any other President Clintons sold uranium to Russia that why Russia has more nuclear weapons than America and Obama Clinton Biden are war criminals like the Ukraine government and the Russia government and remember Obama boomed Africans countries and Cuba sent doctors and nurses to Africa countries and Venezuela was giving oils and gas to poor Americans and Obama did nothing to the American oil and gas and your country Britain stole Venezuela gold and never gave it back to them
