And Lao so lucky to have visited such places. It’s real education for te girls too . Well done all of you and continue to make very day best . Sending hugs 🤗
As an American viewer I am really loving this vlog series. Love seeing all of the beautiful places you are visiting on this holiday. Makes me super excited for your travels in Taylor when she's done.
I am also a newish viewer to your channel and I have been watching your old vlogs and just watched the Bath vlog on your all's last minute 2 week trip back in 2019 I think and am loving seeing all the sights on your road trip.
U guys r amazing
I'd have to walk everywhere!!! take my hat off to you with your driving skills Nick x
I love going places w you guys…. That traffic and parking was extra special…thank you and be well !
Are those cicadas that you hear?
Absolutely stunning scenery, but there`s no way I could handle those roads; what a nightmare! Beautiful fresh fruit at the market, all your meals looked delicious!
I just got home from a 2 week trip in Italy. We also drove & it was so hard to park lol! Everywhere in Italy looks like a movie. I always keep my passport with me even though it isn’t needed to cross into other countries. Slovenia is the only place I’ve been stopped at passport control. You guys must consider seeing Lake Garda in Italy in Taylor. Lake Como was nice too. Loving this series!
Your making such great memories for your families .❤ Thanks for sharing.
Monaco is actually Principality city not a country.
Did the girls enjoy their holiday? Usually, kids just want a pool and a water park, they're not up for sightseeing 😅
Love this!! Making me want to pack up and move to one of these beautiful little seaside places. I mean I do live beside the Sea but there's a massive difference between Ayr and Italy 😳🤣xx
As a mum who enjoys road trips with my young kids, I love this. I'll be aiming for this region! Great vlog and much praise to the girls!
Monacco looks lovely but a nightmare if driving 🙈 no tourist tour of priness Grace kelly & prince Rainier castle where prince albert lives now, or isnt their castle/home in Monacco 🤔🤔🤔
Ive done these places, Monaco is a favourite of mine! However never driven, very brave of you lol 😅
What a fun day! Good job driving, Nick! I'd be way too scared to park in that spot 😱
I’m so enjoying your vlogs lately! I thought I’d miss the van conversion vlogs but these s.o.f films are so entertaining and we’ve got the van ones to look forward to when you get back. Thank you guys!
Sah ka duhs, they were loud in Fl last night.
Absolutely enjoyed this vlog, you guys are living the life!
Leigh, I was gobsmacked when I saw you'd bitten into that apple without washing it first though (eeek) can you imagine the number of hands that may have also touched it before you? I'm sorry to be such a mom (but I am soooo🤭😁) but please wash your apples before you eat them 🥰☺
Thanks guys!!! ❤ loved this vlog seems you had the best time x
Guys the easiest way to do your 3 countries is by train. The railway skirts the coast, Is cheap and hassle free!! The reason your seeing so much Italian in the south of France is because up until quite recently say a cpl of a hundred years ago it was Italian territory and still a firm favourite of Italian tourists. Once inside the EU no proof of citizenship is required at borders but always useful to have on you. I first ventured to Ventimelia in the mid 70,s as a young soldier based in West Germany. France had taken itself out of NATO over some squabble so our MOD90,s ( military I’d card) where of no use so we had to carry p/ports. We had travelled by train all night down the Rhine into Switzerland, changed trains in Milan and eventually arrived at the Italian border. Both of us had never been before but our ultimate destination was Cannes. We looked all round for a passport office or barrier but couldn’t find one so just went to the platform for our French train. We didn’t like the place that much so happy to get on our way again. A loud shouting from another platform got our attention and we looked over to see what looked like a cartoon figure pointing his pistol at us.. we initially thought it was some kind of stunt but another pax told us he was Italian police. Having just returned from a tour of Ulster I wasn’t too pleased at having a gun pointed at me so told him exactly what I was going to do with it unless it was re holstered. He understood what I was saying or the sentiment used because he put it away and he pushed us down a series of corridors until we met a man behind a little glass domed window, no signs etc to say it was p/port control. We showed them our id,s and p/ports and where set free lol
Cannes was lovely and I still remember the complete difference between Italy and France as we left the first tunnel, one was vibrant and full of colour with flowers one looked run down and drab. We had another incident on the way back in Italy but that can wait for another time
Great to see your enjoying yourself and both still young enough to tackle the lots of hills lol
You can get a tag in the UK that you use when in France that allows you to go through the T-tag lanes on the tolls. We use it every time we travel and you just monthly for any toll use. Makes it so much easier handling the tolls
Monaco looked insanely rich 😅 Italy looked lovely i guess youll be going back in Taylor at some point….im enjoying watching your French vlogs ty
Excellent vlog, stunning scenery in all 3 countries. Loved watching the girls in the back of the car on the way back from Monaco. Too funny. Also loved Jannine's dress, so pretty.
Next time you go to Italy, can you take me with you? Thanks 💜🇮🇹💜
Enjoyed this thank you.
