We are dedicated to helping people from outside NB purchase their new home in Saint John.
Saw a small peek of my mom's old house off Shipyard Road in Rothesay. I'm born and raised, still living in Rothesay. We fortunately still have well water. We have had a few families from Ontario move into our neighborhood. It has made me take a second look at our home town, and SJ too, of just how much we really do need to appreciate where we live. I'm like you too, that I appreciate how much the Bay of Fundy regulates the temperatures. Thanks for all you are doing to provide such detailed tours of our area and surrounding towns.
p.s. That's not a restaurant and lounge at the Rothesay Yacht Club. Strictly for members only unfortunately. It would be a wonderful place for a river side restaurant thought.
Thank you, Sharon. Very well said!
The best videos of Saint John by far. Thank you!
Thank you very much, Anita.
I think Saint John/NB Tourism should sponsor your videos as ambassadors for the the city/province. Just saying! 🤔🙂
Thanks, but that will never happen. There's many more trendy and talented people than us making videos now about the local area.
I've seen those trendy & so called talented videos but I have always believed that what comes from the heart wins in the end. Your videos ARE from the heart Les & Wendy... In the end that counts for a lot! 😊❤️
@@smiling_eyes7903 Thank you!
Yes. During this entire video I though the Chamber of Commerce or City of SJ should be sponsoring these video. Your enthusiasm for Saint John and surrounding areas is wonderful. Great job.😊
@@jenjennl846 I agree wholeheartedly with you!!! There is a heart-centered approach to sharing their love of Saint John and surrounding area . Glad to hear someone else recognizes it too! 😊🤗🤗😊❤️
Oh my goodness, did I ever enjoy this. Wow. Thank you for the wonderful tour.
Our pleasure. Thanks for watching.
We move to Quispamsis in 20 days! I'm still in shock that this is actually going to be my new home. It's just so stunning.
Congratulations on your move. There is never-ending natural beauty throughout this area, and we too have trouble believing we get to live here, and so affordably.
Fantastic video . i love your posts. I moved to Saint John 2 yrs ago . we are right beside your film location , we're on Drury Cove . this town is the best ever . were on the water and have the boat moored 40 meters in front of the house .... and still 10 min from Costco and all the banks and stores
. this is the best ever here :) ..... and the most beautiful place I have ever lived at.
Living the dream, good for you and thanks for the kind words.
Hello Les & Wendy, I am not sure how many people watch your video from Africa, but I am watching it from Zambia in Southern Africa. We intend to come to NB very soon as our relatives are there in Moncton. This video of Rothesay has compelled me to think again on my plans to settle down in Moncton. :-) Awesome. Thank you very much for taking us around on your drives! Keep up the great work!
I subscribed as you had mentioned 80% of your viewers have not subscribed. So mentioning that at times, could help to get some more subscribers.
Thank you so much for subscribing! We do have a subscriber from Zimbabwe and one from Nigeria that I know of which we find amazing, so thank you for joining us. With all due respect to Moncton, the Saint John area is much nicer in my opinion, so come and check it out for yourself.
Yeah, You right Les and Wendy I am one of the Nigerians watching, maybe the only one not sure🙄, I have watched all of your videos. My wife and I always look forward to new videos sometimes I watch them again it just keeps our dream of moving to Ca. alive, kind of motivational. I do love you guys, it feels I have known you guys for a long time.
We love Saint John!💞
Grew up in Gondola Point.
Such a beautiful place.....so many childhood memories.
Hope all the new arrivals enjoy NB. Would be interesting to hear their perspective
Two of our subscribers have moved here already with many more arriving over the summer. The two that are here have both told us they are blown away by the beauty and weather and have made a point of saying, "We love Saint John!"
@@WeLoveSaintJohn that's awesome
Another breathtaking video Wendy and Les. Dreaming of being there now...hoping to see you guys soon.
Thanks Titus. You'll be home soon.
Love it! We are looking at Rothesay too. Thanks for the video as always.
Our pleasure!
The weather today (June 24) is absolutely gorgeous in Moncton as well. :)
Ekkk that last little park you were at is just a 5 min walk from the house we just bought right on Rothesay road! Small world that it just popped up on my feed!
Google has a way of turning everything into a small world. Congrats on your new home in a beautiful area.
@@WeLoveSaintJohn thanks we're super excited
So beautiful 😍💕💞💕😍
This is a lovely place. I remember Queenstown, New Zealand. The Wakatipu lake region is remarkable (indeed they also have a mountain called Remarkable). I made a joke! =)
could you do a drive through of all of the rothesay ave streets and the mac laren blvd as well please thanks
When we first moved to Saint John in the 70s, my parents rented a house on Kane Rd, which is directly ahead and to the right of where this video begins. In the winter we used to snowmobile on the frozen river. I was in the first graduating class at KVHS in 1976. This area was known as Gondola Point back then. Btw, the correct pronunciation in this context is not the expected GON-do-la; it is gon-DOE-la, with the accent on the second syllable. Now you know. :-)
I still can't grasp the accent on the SIS in Quispamsis.
@@WeLoveSaintJohn Haha, yeah, that's another good "gotcha" for newcomers!
Quispamsis used to be called Gondola Point up until 1998.
It's so gorgeous😍, thanks guys. I hope, it will be my home someday
Thanks for watching Kathie.
@@WeLoveSaintJohn 😀
Great video.🤙🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟👍😘
Thank you! Cheers!
Quispamsis is Malaseet for little lake in the woods.
...which is Ritchie Lake
That’s a great tidbit! Thank you, my in-laws live on Ritchie Lake, and they’ll love this.
Thanks 😊 just added Renforth Rotary Park to my places to visit list!
It's pretty nice.
I had love Moncton and hoping to move there but seeing Rothesay and quin....men I need to start seeking a job here
Love d video
Good choice, it's much nicer here.
@@WeLoveSaintJohn look for a family to adopt me or give me a job to move there with my family...lol
@@WeLoveSaintJohn love your videos
Watching from Nigeria
Over on the Island the cliff is called Ministers Face. Apparently you can see a face in it. The river right below the face is almost 200ft deep. Cheers
Thank you for adding that information. We love it when our local experts can add detail to what we see.
maybe if you put a dark blanket or towel across your dash .may stop the glare. Enjoy your videos and your style
House prices have gone up exponentially in both Rothesay & Qiiss Pam
Very nice area indeed !!
They are desirable communities in which to live, so demand is high and prices reflect that.
Really beautiful please. Sometime it looks like BC. I fall in love of this place. Is there any job available ?
We came here from BC, so we understand what you're saying, but homes here are much much less expensive. Yes, there are jobs here.
@@WeLoveSaintJohn I am in India. 😉
Have you done the world's longest covered bridge yet ? I have pictures of my parents there in 1952 on their honeymoon , so my wife and I went there 3 years ago and did the same , we stopped in the middle of the bridge and kissed , then posed for a picture that matched my parent's picture , what a great memory , and then of course , we're stupid tourists , so we went to gravity hill too LOL
Nice story. And as a tourist, you gotta do tourist stuff.
Nice
Thanks
Where auther Irving lives is a nice area mt pleasant north
With so much water and trees do the bugs get bad ?
We live by the ocean where there are very few bugs. But if you're in a forested area with standing water you will get lots of them.
this might be a silly question but are there local beaches to swim in this area ?
Yes, several.
What do people do for work in the aerea?
Pretty much the same things they do in any area, I suppose.
@@WeLoveSaintJohnim from windsor ont and thinking about moving the family. Im a machinist. Is there any Machinist/tool and Die/Mould Making shops around there?
🙂🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🙂 🥰😘
i saw a lot of car driving with the head light on. why is that ??
They're called daytime running lights and they are mandatory in Canada.
@@WeLoveSaintJohn good to know. love your videos
I was a young teenager in the reserve army during the early 60's. we always had headlights on when driving military vehicles.(nobody else then) I was told it was for safety when highway driving especially on bright sunny days.
I've been told insurance doesn't cover you if you go through the ice,also it's a environmental problem and very expensive to get fished out not a good idea.
Sounds about right to me.
@@WeLoveSaintJohn love the water front nothing better than having water views.
Your a nob Wendy lol I love your voice lol
You may not know the answer to these questions one thing I've noticed a high number of vacant houses for sale.
The other question is the brain disease they don't know what's causing it have you heard anything about that.
Vacant houses are most likely former rentals our multi family homes. There were many years where more people moved out than into New Brunswick. The brain disease is a mystery to everyone but has not affected anyone in this area. It's been concentrated around Moncton and Miramichi in the east of the province.
@@WeLoveSaintJohn thanks so much I appreciate the information.
