We went to Positano from Oct 11th thru Oct 14th this year. I had booked a boat trip with BlueStar for Thurs Oct 13th. I provided a 20e deposit but unfortunately it rained on Thursday and the boat trip was cancelled. I could not take the trip another time. I received a message from BlueStar that the trip had been cancelled and they would have someone bring my 20e deposit back to my hotel. On Friday morning as we checked out, I was amazed to find an envelop for me with my deposit of 20e at the hotel lobby. My wife and I were amazed that BlueStar had sent someone personally to return my deposit to the hotel. It is nice to see the honesty of people and companies like BlueStar. If we ever get a chance to come back to Positano, I will surely go back to BlueStar first for our boat trip. Loved our trip there and hopefully we will be able to come back again soon. Watching your videos Nicki and Carlos brings back that warm feeling we had from our wonderful trip a few weeks ago. thanks from Canada
💕Elizabeth and Peppe give their whole selves to the business. Everyone is family. I can understand the tumult of emotions of farewelling the season- such a touching ritual farewell from the boats 😢🕊💕
Oh my God, Elizabeth on the skis !!! Last year I laughed so hard and had to watch again and again as she persevered to say upright. Incredible this year she did it. Elizabeth is an incredible friend for you to have, Nicki.
Your friendship with Elizabeth and her family is something very special and to cherish. Your videos are always beautifully done and you and Carlo never disappoint. Thank you!!! 🥰
So many ups and downs in life, but I must say you have all created such a beautiful life. God bless you all and thank you so much for the content you make for us❤️
Absolutely wonderful to see Analisa captain the boat 🚤, wish her much success! The video footage is incredible, bravo Carlo and Nicki 🎉😊. Thank you Elizabeth and your husband for taking us on your Blue Star adventures this year, can’t wait for next year! Love the send off❤🇮🇹.
Nicki and Carlo, I love your videos and watch them every week. You are part of my Sunday rituals and I always look forward to seeing what's happening with your extended family in Positano and afar.
Nicki, you and Carlo do such an amazing job with the videos. They are always so beautiful, relaxing and enjoyable. I hate to see them come to an end. 😊❤️
What a gorgeous vlog, Nicki Carlo and Elisabeth!!!!! An emotional, beautifully filmed and edited video by such beautiful people!!! Thank you for letting us live for a few minutes in a totally different world!!!🥰🥰🥰
Elizabeth you were fabulous water skiing ! 😃 Lovely to hear the emotion in your voice Elizabeth talking about Blue Star , the hard work the stress throughout the season , but then the relief and sadness that the season was at an end as you said thanks and goodbye to the boats and captains until the Spring . Thank you Carlo for the lovely views of the coast from above
This is a wonderful tradition! It just shows how people are grounded in their culture and they have respect for the ocean and their environment. It’s also quite touching how the locals celebrate with each other and they are great full for what they have!
That was so sad, I was crying too! I watched Luca and Sara’s vlog this morning where Luca ended the video, walking, and that made me cry too. So I’ve spent my Sunday morning on the other side of the world crying for all my favorite Italian people😅😅😅😅😅 Love Bev, Washington, DC
I do enjoy looking at all of you and your family of Blue star ⭐️. What a great 👍 day all friends and family. You can see the love ❤️ you all have for each other. God Bless you all. Thanks Carlo for showing us the boat. Awesome 👏 thanks 😊
Wonderful to see everyone so relaxed and having fun at the end of a busy season...and then the mixed emotions. ☺😞 Great to see Skye too! Indie should be fine by next year. Thanks Nicki & Carlo! 👱♀️❤
The love between Nicki and Elizabeth and the relationship between their families is so touching really beautiful to watch. I thoroughly enjoyed this episode. ❤❤❤
Fabulous end of season on the beautiful coastline! Thanks for taking us on the water, it’s such divine therapy. So Carlo is a “behind man” 😄My husband was a “leg man!” Such a lovely day on the boat, thank you all, 😊with an emotional ending….. I felt it too, as the boats left. Like saying goodbye to my family when I leave for overseas every year. Seasonal living. A blessing because of what the different seasons hold. Ebbs and flows of life.
Congratulations Elisabeth - 10 years for Blue Star! Enjoyed meeting you in Positano last month. Well done Nicki and Carlo for our weekly peek into Paradise - great photography and storyline as always 🙂
You guys and your friends are the best reality tv show there is. Nothing compares. Because it's the real in reality. One of your best videos, both content and editing.
Wow...Italians really know how to live La Dolce Vita, don't they? Imagine how gealous we are, the rest of the world, who is living in cold areas...The sun and the sea are just amazing!
Bittersweet:(. I am sure all of your viewers are feeling much the same way as we have had the privilege of going out on these boat trips and spending time with your family and friends). I shall look forward to all that you share over the winter. It brings sunshine and joy into my life :). Grazie and Ciao until next week.❤
Wonderful to see the sea dogs rampant, even if one is not quite sure of her sea legs yet, her tail was certainly wagging when Skye came aboard. How lovely it all looks. Thank you for it all.
Wonderful end of season traditions. Elizabeth has built an amazing company with her husband and it’s fun to see them included. I hope everyone has a great winter season! Looking forward to more off season looks into the Amalfi Coast life. It is ever changing and yet not.
Sweet sweet video. Family and friends so nice! I totally get Elisabeth and her boats. Her other babies. Their company brings so many people joy. Safe for the winter. 💙❤️❤️💙❤️🌹😘🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🌸💮🌸🌸💮I absolutely love seeing all of the dishes served. Delicious looking food. Yum 😋🤤 thanks again for sharing. ❤️🌹😘🙏
I remember being there in 3rd week of October my first visit, and all the boats were pulled up and it was all closed up. Not being a 'crowds' person - it was perfect! Loved walking along collecting old tiles washed up on the beach...and took a lovely picture of my daughter by one of the boats...then 11 ---- now 29!
It is just so heart warming watching your family and Elizabeth’s family interact with one another… and indeed Elizabeth’s crew and how is like one big family…..by the way I do not know where Elizabeth gets her energy from!!!😢😊.. incredible!!,
Good afternoon, one really gets the sense of the end of a season of fun in the Sun on a boat. Blue Sky makes many memories that many people return home to their lives and cherish forever. Is it any Wonder that Elizabeth becomes emotional upon reflection of that fact? Happy Memories on the waters with skies of Blue in Blue Sky boats.!!
I related so so much to this one! My former partner and I lived water side here on the East coast of the States. We practically lived on the boat for 10 years. The end of season was so much fun, less boats and people. But putting up the boat to dry dock every October was sad!! I literally cried for Elisabeth, I know that feeling 😪 ❤ All the memories this brought to me...thank you. Life on the water is alot of work, but it is a lifestyle I truly miss.
We been following your channel for years. Our family visited Italy for the first time in June for two weeks. While we did not make it to Positano, we did stay in Sorrento and chartered a similar boat for a day to go around Capri. We can't wait to return to Italy and hopefully visit Positano! Congratulations to Elizabeth and family on ten years!
An incredible season. Made more poignant with Skye being hugged over and over as she arrived on the boat and Nicki’s and Elizabeth’s life-long friends-are-family hug on the bow. Looking forward to the end of 2022 with my Positano friends but even more - the excitement of 2023 ♥️.
I love Elizabeths end season boat trip with family and friends. ..sweet that she still gets emotional after a decade. ..Lovely vlog footage as always Carlo.. and loved your Nickis behind comment.. funny and sweet! 🙂.
What an absolutely perfect day 😀 It’s so lovely to see how much love you all have for each other. I didn’t know Skye’s best friend is her boyfriend’s cousin, who is Elizabeth’s step daughter. So you and Elizabeth will probably be related one day for real 🥰😍 I also love how you have different camera vantage points in your videos now, Carlo, his drone, Elizabeth & the girls. You should get Skye & Tommaso to do some footage sometime too.
I had the pleasure to meet Elizabeth when I visited Positano at the end of September. She was very sweet and nice. She took a picture with me at the boat rental office at the beach. I wish her and her family a very successful year in 2023.
Go Elizabeth. All kudos to you. I remember you trying last year and was so impressed by your determination. Bravo. Always moving, seeing the boats saying goodbye. Elizabeth, you are a star 🌟
Oh my Niki and Carlo. Here I was feeling so emotional seeing that fabulous sunset but there was more. How special it was to hear Elizabeth sharing her feelings about the finishing of their summer season. Thank you for sharing the wonderful farewell celebration and the wonderful sense of family and community. Special. ❤❤❤
Beautiful video. Have just finished watching over a glass of vino here in Port Noarlunga, South Australia. Elisabettas emotion was palpable as the boat sirens sounded. Such a different way of life. It is ' heaven on a stick' to watch, Nicki and Carlo.-removes us from this crazy world for 25 minutes every week. I love the way you include others in your videos. Never change your fomula- it is a sure thing! Penelope, South Australia.
It is always sad when our boats have to be put al secco. This was a beautiful episode and again, we learned another aspect of life in Positano. Grazie tutti quanti~
I always love seeing when you are are all together with Elizabeth and friends and family. I always feel so relaxed watching your videos and seem to find myself smiling and grinning. What a beautiful sunset and Positano looks so beautiful lit up at night. Do all the restaurants along the beach where Elizabeth's booths were do they close for winter. I think that is beautiful that they blow their horns and thank every one for the year the success and I can imagine that it is emotional every year Elizabeth and Nicki. Beautiful. Till we see the boats next year Elizabeth we will enjoy the visit with Nicki till then.
Wow, I can't believe all the hard work that goes into the breaking down/moving/storing the entire rental boat operation for the winter, leaving behind a completely open beach -- I will have a whole new appreciation for that when I return for a visit May 2023. Thanks so much for sharing.
Thank u for labelling the food at lunch. I’m going to have seafood risotto soon. It was great to have the behind scenes tour of the Bluestar tear down. I look forward to the April build up. Thank you for the video.
Beloved Nicki, Carlo and Framily.... Stunningly gorgeous. Soo well done. You embody and embrace Paradise Mentality. Thank you for the reminders. Thank you for taking us a long with your dear ones. Growing up in Central America... Understand the policies vary. No rules. We 11 yr olds drove speed boats. No adults aboard. My 13 yr old brother..jumping off, midlake. No life vests. We were exploring and docking all around lake Ilopango.Iguanas jumping from cliffs. In hindsight, I wonder how we did not get into serious accidents. We would take hollowed out wood canoes in the water while it was raining in thunderstorms and we would flip them over just so we could hear our voices underneath and the echo. We would climb on top of it and jump off of it. We had a free childhood and it was quite reckless. Would I recommend now that level of freedom? Absolutely not. It's a miracle we didn't get injured,or get our boat stolen. Now? I would require safety vests on everyone there. We might have had a few but nobody wore them. People need to understand that if you have an emergency in the boat capsizes, it's not the same to be out in the middle of Cold lake treading water as being able to swim. Hypothermia, or injured can't swim. I'm so happy you guys have happiness and joy and freedom. I knew that same sensation. Now, I wonder how my parents let us roam!!! We were water babies,swimmers from age 2. Taught in pools and California beaches.Rivers. Navigating a kayak at 4. Water ski at 10. Different level of risk. Different times... Much Love to you. Keep safe. You are vibrant treasures.Darling little Holly. With all the filming, watch your step. Safety first,Always. 👏🤗👍
What a fabulous day trip and lunch! I love the boat, the pups, and your beautiful friends! I’m looking for a “Carlo” duplicate! What a sweet man! Fun and good looking too! He obviously loves you Nicki very much! Thank you for all your hard work! 💕❤️💕
lovely video and more insight into the world of holidays for everyone...but you! Wonderful to meet Annalisa, 3 beautiful girls. The main lunch looked so scrummy! such imagination and variety! Carlo, I am quite happy to see Nicki's behind...and I am a 66 yr old happily married woman.....you are such a lucky man🥰🤣 she is a perfect woman to me...and I bet many more! I have plucked up the courage to rebook our cancelled 2020 holiday to Chiavari to do the Cinque Terre...this time September. I have been to the Amalfi coast on 2 past holidays and would love to re visit...maybe one day....before I'm too old...Elizabeth has mastered the water skis! Terrific! Sandi x
What a beautiful boat and fun day for everyone. Thank you for taking us along. It just got cold where I live in the southern US. It was 85 degrees last week and 60 and dreary today. I love all your videos. I can’t wait to come to Positano one day and ride on one of Elizabeth and Peppes boats. Thanks to you I can plan where to stay and what to do.
You all had such a fun final boat outing in one of Elisabeth's Blue Star Tour boats, which is beautiful. You all are one big happy family of friends and relatives and I can see why Elisabeth and you feel bittersweet packing up everything at the end of boating season. Do you still get together with her over the winter months or is it more infrequent? On another note, isn't it stupendous news about how well Luca is doing since his blood patch cvs leak surgery? He's walking again and hopefully he'll be able to return home and hold his beautiful baby Lucha. You and Carlos know some wonderful people Nicki! Jenny USA
Wonderful video! The scenery is gorgeous! Thank you for taking us on the boat ride and giving us a tour of the beautiful boat. It was fun to see everyone enjoying themselves. The tooting of the boat horns and watching them sail away was emotional. I look forward to seeing next April's video when they return. Love from Vermont
There was so much to love about this video. The people; the traditions; the nature around you. Thank you SO much for always showing us not only the beautiful bits but the “real” bits of living in your environment. Grazie Mille from Canada 🇨🇦 (we have lots of snow already ❄️ ⛄️ )
Thank you for yet another wonderful view into your life in Positano. What great friendships you have. Everyone should have an especially close friend like you have in Elizabeth...
God nikki, what a great video, and what a wonderful ride it has been. From back in the days where the girls were just tiny, and Sky used to make videos from boarding school in England. Then the pandemic came, and you got all of us through those two years kind of as a family. It's been a wonderful few years, and I look forward to more. Love to you and Carlo
Thank you for this fun and emotional video. So, I try not to live my life with envy or jealousy, but I must say that I am envious of the time that you all are able to spend on the beautiful sea. Plus being surrounded by family and friends! It is my dream to hopefully live by the sea one day soon. Buona Domenica! Paul in Firenze
I cried last year when the boats came out of the sea and again this year! It is so emotional for you all, you work together , eat together, that is family.
It was so lovely to see Skye! I hope she's having a lot of fun after graduating school. It would be emotional at the end of the season. Relief from the crowds and heat, but not being able to go places as often. Thank you and Carlo for posting your wonderful videos. Have a restful and beautiful off-season! ❤
What a lovely way to spend time with family and friends at the end of the season. Wish I could have been. So peaceful without the crowds. Thanks for sharing 😍😘
Nikki another wonderful videar of your boat trip and what a wonderful captain you have I hope she gets her dream job and it's really great to know that the kids have to go to different schools for whatever they want to be at such a young age here in the US we don't do that they have to have so many credits of high school to be able to go on to college to get their preferred jobs or caryes I'm so sorry for Elizabeth having to be Emotional when her boats have to go be put up and all of the stuff is put away For Winter she has a wonderful business and I'm happy for her and sad at the same time that when the boats have to be put away for the Winter months it was great to see your daughter she looks amasing just like her mother and dad I must say can't wait to your next video it was a wonderful one and the food looks great And is this the best time of the year to come when it's not quite so busy but the dim boat will be put away and you won't be able to go out on a boat so maybe not.
It’s been a bit of a rough week here, so imagine my joy at seeing this special video. The dogs, Carlo, and especially having Elizabeth share such special feelings about her and Peppe’s lovely business, all so very touching. A real balm for my soul today. Bless you. 💜🇺🇸🌵
I walked by Elizabeth and Pepe’s boats and blue star line tent in September when we were in Positano. I looked for her but she wasn’t around. Hello from Oregon Elizabeth! We hope to,return one day soon and meet you. ❤️
Hey hello from usa, Nicki always enjoy your videos bringing the positano life and beautiful scenery. Thank you for sharing. Ciao Carlo un saluto a te apprezzo vedere il tuo drone filmato.sempre piu bello..sei diventato un buon regista. Grazie.
I love your videos, they are always so clear, professional, and beautiful places. The drone footage is exquisite. I love Elizabeth and her family, they are so much fun. Thanks so much!
A lot of LOVE on that last 2022 boat ride of season. Thank u Peppe, Elizabeth, girls for sharing your lives as well. I can appreciate your sadness of seeing boats leave. We stored our RV camper away for winter a month ago. I’m always sad because it’s my fav thing to do. 2022 May to Sept we visited 3 provinces. Our home province Manitoba, Ontario, British Columbia. ❤️🇨🇦
Throwing myself across the bed ! Polka dotted tearstained jammies . Surrounded by handfuls of hankies . Elizabeth and the girls !!! Holly embracing the last ride of the season !!! Then the horns of farewell 😭 I lost 5lbs and my eyes are swollen shut . Sad tears ,happy tears ,beautiful soul moving tears ! A sentimental mess Summer is over .
Another wonderful video! Beautiful day on the water with friends and family ending with gorgeous sunsets!! Indie seems to be getting her sea legs. Love to all of you ❣ Ciao for now ‼🇮🇹
We went to Positano from Oct 11th thru Oct 14th this year. I had booked a boat trip with BlueStar for Thurs Oct 13th. I provided a 20e deposit but unfortunately it rained on Thursday and the boat trip was cancelled. I could not take the trip another time. I received a message from BlueStar that the trip had been cancelled and they would have someone bring my 20e deposit back to my hotel. On Friday morning as we checked out, I was amazed to find an envelop for me with my deposit of 20e at the hotel lobby. My wife and I were amazed that BlueStar had sent someone personally to return my deposit to the hotel. It is nice to see the honesty of people and companies like BlueStar. If we ever get a chance to come back to Positano, I will surely go back to BlueStar first for our boat trip. Loved our trip there and hopefully we will be able to come back again soon. Watching your videos Nicki and Carlos brings back that warm feeling we had from our wonderful trip a few weeks ago. thanks from Canada
💕Elizabeth and Peppe give their whole selves to the business. Everyone is family. I can understand the tumult of emotions of farewelling the season- such a touching ritual farewell from the boats 😢🕊💕
Oh my heart! The slo-mo of Holly’s fur in the wind as she looks out onto to the sea. Magnificent video
Oh my God, Elizabeth on the skis !!! Last year I laughed so hard and had to watch again and again as she persevered to say upright. Incredible this year she did it. Elizabeth is an incredible friend for you to have, Nicki.
Elizabeth is an amazing woman. 🥰
elizabeth, snow plow snow plow, snow plow! 😍
Love this video… good info for my return… hopefully sooon🇺🇸🇮🇹🙏🌹
*You're hilarious Elisabeth!* 12:41 Great legs too
Your friendship with Elizabeth and her family is something very special and to cherish. Your videos are always beautifully done and you and Carlo never disappoint. Thank you!!! 🥰
So many ups and downs in life, but I must say you have all created such a beautiful life. God bless you all and thank you so much for the content you make for us❤️
Absolutely wonderful to see Analisa captain the boat 🚤, wish her much success! The video footage is incredible, bravo Carlo and Nicki 🎉😊. Thank you Elizabeth and your husband for taking us on your Blue Star adventures this year, can’t wait for next year! Love the send off❤🇮🇹.
Nicki and Carlo, I love your videos and watch them every week. You are part of my Sunday rituals and I always look forward to seeing what's happening with your extended family in Positano and afar.
Nicki, you and Carlo do such an amazing job with the videos. They are always so beautiful, relaxing and enjoyable. I hate to see them come to an end. 😊❤️
What a gorgeous vlog, Nicki Carlo and Elisabeth!!!!! An emotional, beautifully filmed and edited video by such beautiful people!!! Thank you for letting us live for a few minutes in a totally different world!!!🥰🥰🥰
Elizabeth you were fabulous water skiing ! 😃 Lovely to hear the emotion in your voice Elizabeth talking about Blue Star , the hard work the stress throughout the season , but then the relief and sadness that the season was at an end as you said thanks and goodbye to the boats and captains until the Spring . Thank you Carlo for the lovely views of the coast from above
Thanks to Elisabeth, family and Blue Star for sharing, always gorgeous footage of the water!
This is a wonderful tradition! It just shows how people are grounded in their culture and they have respect for the ocean and their environment. It’s also quite touching how the locals celebrate with each other and they are great full for what they have!
That was so sad, I was crying too! I watched Luca and Sara’s vlog this morning where Luca ended the video, walking, and that made me cry too. So I’ve spent my Sunday morning on the other side of the world crying for all my favorite Italian people😅😅😅😅😅 Love Bev, Washington, DC
I do enjoy looking at all of you and your family of Blue star ⭐️. What a great 👍 day all friends and family. You can see the love ❤️ you all have for each other. God Bless you all. Thanks Carlo for showing us the boat. Awesome 👏 thanks 😊
What a lovely day to spend for the end of the season, you are blessed to be living in paradise.
Wonderful to see everyone so relaxed and having fun at the end of a busy season...and then the mixed emotions. ☺😞 Great to see Skye too! Indie should be fine by next year. Thanks Nicki & Carlo!
👱♀️❤
I'm dabbing my eyes too 😢..... I've probably watch that little tradition 3 times now... ❤️
A big "Thank you: to Elizabeth & Pepe also"!
👱♀️❤
The love between Nicki and Elizabeth and the relationship between their families is so touching really beautiful to watch. I thoroughly enjoyed this episode. ❤❤❤
I love how lunch was served family style. Everyone can get a taste a little bit of everything. Thank you for brightening my day!
The views from the boat were beautiful. I can understand how the end of the season could be emotional. The horns are a nice tradition.
Fabulous end of season on the beautiful coastline! Thanks for taking us on the water, it’s such divine therapy. So Carlo is a “behind man” 😄My husband was a “leg man!” Such a lovely day on the boat, thank you all, 😊with an emotional ending….. I felt it too, as the boats left. Like saying goodbye to my family when I leave for overseas every year. Seasonal living. A blessing because of what the different seasons hold. Ebbs and flows of life.
Congratulations Elisabeth - 10 years for Blue Star! Enjoyed meeting you in Positano last month. Well done Nicki and Carlo for our weekly peek into Paradise - great photography and storyline as always 🙂
You guys and your friends are the best reality tv show there is. Nothing compares. Because it's the real in reality. One of your best videos, both content and editing.
Wow...Italians really know how to live La Dolce Vita, don't they? Imagine how gealous we are, the rest of the world, who is living in cold areas...The sun and the sea are just amazing!
Your home may be seasonal with tourism, but it is always an amazing wonderful way of life. And Positano diaries is our anchor.
Bittersweet:(. I am sure all of your viewers are feeling much the same way as we have had the privilege of going out on these boat trips and spending time with your family and friends). I shall look forward to all that you share over the winter. It brings sunshine and joy into my life :). Grazie and Ciao until next week.❤
Holly at the front of the boat like a princess made my heart melt 💓
Wonderful to see the sea dogs rampant, even if one is not quite sure of her sea legs yet, her tail was certainly wagging when Skye came aboard. How lovely it all looks. Thank you for it all.
Aww that’s what it’s all about family friends and doggies. Yes it sad to see all the boats 🚤 leave .
Wonderful end of season traditions. Elizabeth has built an amazing company with her husband and it’s fun to see them included. I hope everyone has a great winter season! Looking forward to more off season looks into the Amalfi Coast life. It is ever changing and yet not.
Sweet sweet video. Family and friends so nice! I totally get Elisabeth and her boats. Her other babies. Their company brings so many people joy. Safe for the winter. 💙❤️❤️💙❤️🌹😘🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🌸💮🌸🌸💮I absolutely love seeing all of the dishes served. Delicious looking food. Yum 😋🤤 thanks again for sharing. ❤️🌹😘🙏
There is always some little spot of Positano life and location that you haven’t seen before. Delightful. X
I remember being there in 3rd week of October my first visit, and all the boats were pulled up and it was all closed up. Not being a 'crowds' person - it was perfect! Loved walking along collecting old tiles washed up on the beach...and took a lovely picture of my daughter by one of the boats...then 11 ---- now 29!
It is just so heart warming watching your family and Elizabeth’s family interact with one another… and indeed Elizabeth’s crew and how is like one big family…..by the way I do not know where Elizabeth gets her energy from!!!😢😊.. incredible!!,
Again I cry with the horns. Lovely stuff, thank-you.
Good afternoon, one really gets the sense of the end of a season of fun in the Sun on a boat. Blue Sky makes many memories that many people return home to their lives and cherish forever. Is it any Wonder that Elizabeth becomes emotional upon reflection of that fact? Happy Memories on the waters with skies of Blue in Blue Sky boats.!!
I related so so much to this one! My former partner and I lived water side here on the East coast of the States. We practically lived on the boat for 10 years. The end of season was so much fun, less boats and people. But putting up the boat to dry dock every October was sad!! I literally cried for Elisabeth, I know that feeling 😪 ❤ All the memories this brought to me...thank you. Life on the water is alot of work, but it is a lifestyle I truly miss.
La Dolce Vita in April 2023!🙏🌺
We been following your channel for years. Our family visited Italy for the first time in June for two weeks. While we did not make it to Positano, we did stay in Sorrento and chartered a similar boat for a day to go around Capri. We can't wait to return to Italy and hopefully visit Positano! Congratulations to Elizabeth and family on ten years!
Such a lovely long summer this year. Elisabeth did really well on the skis.😊
An incredible season. Made more poignant with Skye being hugged over and over as she arrived on the boat and Nicki’s and Elizabeth’s life-long friends-are-family hug on the bow. Looking forward to the end of 2022 with my Positano friends but even more - the excitement of 2023 ♥️.
Elizabeth is an inspiration, and I can see why you two are besties. Thank you for sharing the love ❤️
Good bye boats see you in April 2023! Thank you for taking us on the beautiful boat ride.
I can imagine how that would make Elizabeth emotional. She loves her employees and boats. Time for relaxing (=
I love Elizabeths end season boat trip with family and friends. ..sweet that she still gets emotional after a decade. ..Lovely vlog footage as always Carlo.. and loved your Nickis behind comment.. funny and sweet! 🙂.
What an absolutely perfect day 😀 It’s so lovely to see how much love you all have for each other. I didn’t know Skye’s best friend is her boyfriend’s cousin, who is Elizabeth’s step daughter. So you and Elizabeth will probably be related one day for real 🥰😍 I also love how you have different camera vantage points in your videos now, Carlo, his drone, Elizabeth & the girls. You should get Skye & Tommaso to do some footage sometime too.
WOW. Very emotional day. But what a fun day. April 2023 will be here in no time. You work hard, enjoy the rest. 🙏😊
I had the pleasure to meet Elizabeth when I visited Positano at the end of September. She was very sweet and nice. She took a picture with me at the boat rental office at the beach. I wish her and her family a very successful year in 2023.
Wow….some production at the end of season!👏👍just wonderful…thank you for sharing a little bit of your beautiful world!
Go Elizabeth. All kudos to you. I remember you trying last year and was so impressed by your determination. Bravo. Always moving, seeing the boats saying goodbye. Elizabeth, you are a star 🌟
Oh my Niki and Carlo. Here I was feeling so emotional seeing that fabulous sunset but there was more. How special it was to hear Elizabeth sharing her feelings about the finishing of their summer season. Thank you for sharing the wonderful farewell celebration and the wonderful sense of family and community. Special. ❤❤❤

Such a precious family and friends sharing life in an enchanted land. Thank you once again for allowing us a wee peek into your lives💙
Seasonal life is so emotional! We feel it here on the farm as we move into the woodburning season
It is always sad when our boats have to be put al secco. This was a beautiful episode and again, we learned another aspect of life in Positano. Grazie tutti quanti~
You are so lucky, everyone needs a friend like Elisabeth.
I always love seeing when you are are all together with Elizabeth and friends and family. I always feel so relaxed watching your videos and seem to find myself smiling and grinning. What a beautiful sunset and Positano looks so beautiful lit up at night. Do all the restaurants along the beach where Elizabeth's booths were do they close for winter. I think that is beautiful that they blow their horns and thank every one for the year the success and I can imagine that it is emotional every year Elizabeth and Nicki. Beautiful. Till we see the boats next year Elizabeth we will enjoy the visit with Nicki till then.
Nicki and Carlo - You bring us such beauty to enjoy. Thank you!
Wow, I can't believe all the hard work that goes into the breaking down/moving/storing the entire rental boat operation for the winter, leaving behind a completely open beach -- I will have a whole new appreciation for that when I return for a visit May 2023. Thanks so much for sharing.
The most beautiful place in the world!
What a lovely heartfelt video. Very cool to see the behind the scenes of Blue Star.
Good for you Elisabeth, you did it! Beautiful video, as always. I get very emotional when Autumn hits.
That Carlos was hilarious when he was filming on the boat!! I laughed so hard!!!
Thank u for labelling the food at lunch. I’m going to have seafood risotto soon. It was great to have the behind scenes tour of the Bluestar tear down. I look forward to the April build up. Thank you for the video.
Beloved Nicki, Carlo and Framily....
Stunningly gorgeous.
Soo well done.
You embody and embrace Paradise Mentality. Thank you for the reminders.
Thank you for taking us a long with your dear ones.
Growing up in Central America...
Understand the policies vary.
No rules.
We 11 yr olds drove speed boats.
No adults aboard. My 13 yr old brother..jumping off, midlake.
No life vests. We were exploring and docking all around lake Ilopango.Iguanas jumping from cliffs.
In hindsight, I wonder how we did not get into serious accidents. We would take hollowed out wood canoes in the water while it was raining in thunderstorms and we would flip them over just so we could hear our voices underneath and the echo. We would climb on top of it and jump off of it. We had a free childhood and it was quite reckless.
Would I recommend now that level of freedom? Absolutely not. It's a miracle we didn't get injured,or get our boat stolen.
Now?
I would require safety vests on everyone there. We might have had a few but nobody wore them.
People need to understand that if you have an emergency in the boat capsizes,
it's not the same to be out in the middle of Cold lake treading water as being able to swim. Hypothermia, or injured can't swim.
I'm so happy you guys have happiness and joy and freedom. I knew that same sensation.
Now, I wonder how my parents let us roam!!!
We were water babies,swimmers from age 2. Taught in pools and
California beaches.Rivers.
Navigating a kayak at 4. Water ski at 10.
Different level of risk.
Different times...
Much
Love to you.
Keep safe. You are vibrant treasures.Darling little Holly.
With all the filming, watch your step.
Safety first,Always.

What a fabulous day trip and lunch! I love the boat, the pups, and your beautiful friends! I’m looking for a “Carlo” duplicate! What a sweet man! Fun and good looking too! He obviously loves you Nicki very much! Thank you for all your hard work! 💕❤️💕
lovely video and more insight into the world of holidays for everyone...but you! Wonderful to meet Annalisa, 3 beautiful girls. The main lunch looked so scrummy! such imagination and variety! Carlo, I am quite happy to see Nicki's behind...and I am a 66 yr old happily married woman.....you are such a lucky man🥰🤣 she is a perfect woman to me...and I bet many more! I have plucked up the courage to rebook our cancelled 2020 holiday to Chiavari to do the Cinque Terre...this time September. I have been to the Amalfi coast on 2 past holidays and would love to re visit...maybe one day....before I'm too old...Elizabeth has mastered the water skis! Terrific! Sandi x
What a beautiful boat and fun day for everyone. Thank you for taking us along. It just got cold where I live in the southern US. It was 85 degrees last week and 60 and dreary today. I love all your videos. I can’t wait to come to Positano one day and ride on one of Elizabeth and Peppes boats. Thanks to you I can plan where to stay and what to do.
You all had such a fun final boat outing in one of Elisabeth's Blue Star Tour boats, which is beautiful. You all are one big happy family of friends and relatives and I can see why Elisabeth and you feel bittersweet packing up everything at the end of boating season. Do you still get together with her over the winter months or is it more infrequent? On another note, isn't it stupendous news about how well Luca is doing since his blood patch cvs leak surgery? He's walking again and hopefully he'll be able to return home and hold his beautiful baby Lucha. You and Carlos know some wonderful people Nicki! Jenny USA
Elizabeth, you are such a lovely friend ... huggs from south of France
Wonderful video! The scenery is gorgeous! Thank you for taking us on the boat ride and giving us a tour of the beautiful boat. It was fun to see everyone enjoying themselves. The tooting of the boat horns and watching them sail away was emotional. I look forward to seeing next April's video when they return. Love from Vermont
There was so much to love about this video. The people; the traditions; the nature around you. Thank you SO much for always showing us not only the beautiful bits but the “real” bits of living in your environment. Grazie Mille from Canada 🇨🇦 (we have lots of snow already ❄️ ⛄️ )
Thank you for yet another wonderful view into your life in Positano. What great friendships you have. Everyone should have an especially close friend like you have in Elizabeth...
God nikki, what a great video, and what a wonderful ride it has been. From back in the days where the girls were just tiny, and Sky used to make videos from boarding school in England. Then the pandemic came, and you got all of us through those two years kind of as a family. It's been a wonderful few years, and I look forward to more. Love to you and Carlo
That was so special. Thank you all for a beautiful season. Lots of love from Toronto 🇨🇦💜😊🚤🛥️
So beautiful and very touching, you all are so very blessed to have one another! ❤
Thank you for this fun and emotional video. So, I try not to live my life with envy or jealousy, but I must say that I am envious of the time that you all are able to spend on the beautiful sea. Plus being surrounded by family and friends! It is my dream to hopefully live by the sea one day soon. Buona Domenica! Paul in Firenze
I cried last year when the boats came out of the sea and again this year! It is so emotional for you all, you work together , eat together, that is family.
Just a lovely end to the season with family and friends.
It was so lovely to see Skye! I hope she's having a lot of fun after graduating school. It would be emotional at the end of the season. Relief from the crowds and heat, but not being able to go places as often. Thank you and Carlo for posting your wonderful videos. Have a restful and beautiful off-season! ❤
So amazing and beautiful and relaxing video as always off you all lovely people ♥️🙏😍💕🍀💖🤗🌹 Big hugs 🤗💕
I have just realized your choice of music is totally spiritual to me! I have to know everything you have used! :-) happiness!
What a lovely way to spend time with family and friends at the end of the season. Wish I could have been. So peaceful without the crowds. Thanks for sharing 😍😘
Nikki another wonderful videar of your boat trip and what a wonderful captain you have I hope she gets her dream job and it's really great to know that the kids have to go to different schools for whatever they want to be at such a young age here in the US we don't do that they have to have so many credits of high school to be able to go on to college to get their preferred jobs or caryes I'm so sorry for Elizabeth having to be Emotional when her boats have to go be put up and all of the stuff is put away For Winter she has a wonderful business and I'm happy for her and sad at the same time that when the boats have to be put away for the Winter months it was great to see your daughter she looks amasing just like her mother and dad I must say can't wait to your next video it was a wonderful one and the food looks great And is this the best time of the year to come when it's not quite so busy but the dim boat will be put away and you won't be able to go out on a boat so maybe not.
I really respect the Italians and residents of Positano. They are all really hard workers!
All these heart felt comments.💕 There is nothing i can add other than I wish i was there too 🥳
It’s been a bit of a rough week here, so imagine my joy at seeing this special video. The dogs, Carlo, and especially having Elizabeth share such special feelings about her and Peppe’s lovely business, all so very touching. A real balm for my soul today. Bless you. 💜🇺🇸🌵
I walked by Elizabeth and Pepe’s boats and blue star line tent in September when we were in Positano. I looked for her but she wasn’t around. Hello from Oregon Elizabeth! We hope to,return one day soon and meet you. ❤️
Thank you for the beautiful video. Every video you and Carlo make is beautiful. You became a very important part of my life. Thank you!
I remembered a video post of boats being put away for winter and felt like it was just a couple of mths ago... how time flies !!
A beautiful video Nikki, family and friends are so important. Its time for you to enjoy your free time Elizabeth. Enjoy the winter. Take care
Blue blue clear water off lovely Positano 💋💕
Wonderful video with Elisabeth and the girls. Love watching the vlogs each week. 😘🎈🎈🎈
Hey hello from usa, Nicki always enjoy your videos bringing the positano life and beautiful scenery.
Thank you for sharing. Ciao Carlo un saluto a te apprezzo vedere il tuo drone filmato.sempre piu bello..sei diventato un buon regista. Grazie.
That lunch looked SPECTACULAR
I love your videos, they are always so clear, professional, and beautiful places. The drone footage is exquisite. I love Elizabeth and her family, they are so much fun. Thanks so much!
What a beautiful day. I'm so pleased for you all.
A lot of LOVE on that last 2022 boat ride of season. Thank u Peppe, Elizabeth, girls for sharing your lives as well. I can appreciate your sadness of seeing boats leave. We stored our RV camper away for winter a month ago. I’m always sad because it’s my fav thing to do. 2022 May to Sept we visited 3 provinces. Our home province Manitoba, Ontario, British Columbia. ❤️🇨🇦
Throwing myself across the bed !
Polka dotted tearstained jammies .
Surrounded by handfuls of hankies .
Elizabeth and the girls !!!
Holly embracing the last ride of the season !!!
Then the horns of farewell 😭
I lost 5lbs and my eyes are swollen shut .
Sad tears ,happy tears ,beautiful soul moving tears !
A sentimental mess
Summer is over .
Another wonderful video! Beautiful day on the water with friends and family ending with gorgeous sunsets!! Indie seems to be getting her sea legs. Love to all of you ❣ Ciao for now ‼🇮🇹
