- Finally we leave England and start our journey back to Positano!
Thank you for sticking with us along the way, I know this is not what you signed up for but everyone is entitled to a break and after the last couple of years everyone should take any chance to visit family abroad whenever possible. This was my chance and this was my break. A month with my family in England. So thank you for your patience and regular broadcasting from Italy will resume next week!
In this video we drive to Dijon where it is too cold and foggy to do much at all except sleep and drive away.
So we headed off in search of better weather and found it in Avignon where we didn't dance on the bridge but we did find wine for Luca.
We drove to Provence and stay with our friends Darren and Darla. If, by the way you have any computer problems Darren can help: www.zerolimits.com
We visited Apt, Gourdes, Rousillon and Lacoste while there.
In the next video we arrive back in Italy!

Thanks for watching the video WE'RE FINALLY DRIVING HOME THROUGH FRANCE! | DIJON, AVIGNON, PROVENCE
Talking about how the bathrooms are closed while you drink tea is giving me anxiety! hahaha. Beautiful video - thank you!
Had the exact same thought!
Hahaha same! If I was drinking tea and hearing that announcement it would make me want to use the washroom, not because I needed to but because it's psychological, its the announcement 😂
I have really loved this video.Thank you for sharing what I am sure are very precious memories for you both and your beautiful daughter and father.Please do lots more
X
🤣I know right!! I would’ve immediately had to use the bathroom upon hearing the bathrooms were closed 😭😂
I had the same thought! But it's only 30mins.
Nicki and Carlo, from the bottom of my ♥️ THANK YOU for bringing us along on your vacation. I appreciate the extra work for you not only as you sight see but also in editing. Wishing you blessings in 2022 and again, thank you for sharing your lives with us.
It's nice Skye is staying behind to keep Grandpa company, even for maybe a few more days...leaving one's parents behind is always hard, esp for people like me who move literally halfway across the world. Lovely video.
I agree leaving a parent is very sad. I used to live 10 hours away and it was too far to respond to minor hiccups. Thankfully we now live only 2 hours away so we are able to fix things like broken toilets and water heaters. I'm very appreciative of now being so close.
@@hulahickey6959 Try and visit as often as you can - there is an aching hole on the other side.
@@hulahickey6959 I'm so glad for you and am sure your parents are extremely happy about that. It is a 16 hr nonstop flight for me so I can only do it once a year, for a 3 week stay.
Nicki I hope you never ever give up vlogging. I am engaged from the first frame to the last you are so skilled at keeping your subscribers entertained and informed. You and Carlo keep outdoing yourselves. Thank you!
So beautiful all the villages. Your computer friend has a lovely home and he was so gracious showing you around. The scenery in this trip have been amazing.
Some beautiful scenery in southern France. Carlo looked very happy to be back in Italy. Thanks for taking us along. 👍👍People need to hit the thumbs up button.
Nicki don't apologize. We signed on for whatever you bring us: the more the merrier .. it's fascinating to be able to go on the journeys with you and see these places - not only Positano (after a while we all need a change!) Keep keeping us with you!
What a delightful road trip! Great scenery and stories. You've captured some postcard views, loved the music selection too. 😃 👍
Carlo's sneeze just made me jump. I am doing some lesson planning while listening to your video. My 8-year-old son is watching with me and his teacher tells the class that over the weekend they have to learn one to fun fact and come to class on Monday and tell them all about it. He is going to tell the class all about Dijon Mustered and where it's made.
I agree with Carlo, I HATE THE COLD WEATHER!
that's an italian sneeze, i've heard many.
Holly is a darling snuggling with dad! Drive safe you guys!
Again Carlo your drone footage is amazing! And Nicki your story telling brings the films to life. I love traveling with you two to places I will never see.
I don’t think I’ve ever been so attached to an animal on TH-cam than I have been with your sweet little Holly. So glad you were able to be with family. I lost my Dad in January 2021 and got a bit choked up when you pulled into your Dad’s place. It made me happy to see you with yours. Thank you for sharing your beautiful life and family. Hoping to be in France for my sabbatical in 2023…maybe we will visit the Amalfi Coast in the spring!
I agree. Cute little dog.
Janet, believe me, Holly has a Huge fan club across the globe!
She is adorbs!! Would love to cuddle and carry her.
Nicki & Carlo, you have no idea how much we enjoy your vlogs, as we are both vulnerable it is best we stay home with our Red Setter Rafferty, the only time we go out is to walk him so you can imagine what this means, absolutely beautiful thank you so much
Now that Carlo doesn't have to worry about returning to work, you both can really enjoy seeing all of these wonderful places. Dijon is very special. We've never been to Rousillon, but we have taken a canal boat through the Languedoc. Have a safe trip back to beautiful Positano!
I agree with Carlo - I do NOT like the cold! I am dreaming of summer and the ocean waves!
Thank you Nicki , Carlo and Holly! I really enjoy traveling with you guys 😜
Darla and Darren were so generous sharing their favorite gorgeous spots, and the dead lavender shot was fab, Nicki, thank you🥰
Wow!Wow!Wow!
What a journey! Beautiful landscape & architecture in buildings! The church was magnificent! St. Joan of Arc!🙏
The Lavender fields! Even frozen u could imagine the scent! Bellisima’s❤️
Safe travels! 🎈
Carlo enjoy the warmth of Dijon. Here in the Ottawa, Canada area we have endured almost 2 weeks of -20 to -30 Celsius without the wind chill being added in. I've had to boost my ex's car every day, luckily I have a new battery since last spring. The river near my place is frozen and people skate out there, the brave even drive cars on it. My apartment windows were completely frosted for days - today the sun is out and it's a balmy -12 Celsius the sun is shining and that has melted the frost so I can see outside. Would you like to adopt me :-).
I’m in Ottawa as well and I would also like to be adopted🥶🥶🥶
Same in Toronto
Also in Ottawa and this weather is even too cold to go cross country ski, snowshoe or skate at times. Blow Drying icicles off my dog every time we go out for a walk. Love the winter though:)
dear that sounds like murderous cold...i have family in Montreal..
Enjoying your ongoing adventure ... from Victoria BC .. west coast of Canada. Not so cold here... more like 6 or 7 C. Dijon is 30 years ago in my past.. and enjoyed our time in southern France... but in May. Safe travels.
Oh my! now frantically searching for property in Gourdes and trying to work out how to leave England! What a stunning place. Thank you for taking time out of your holiday to show us your adventures, I know it's not easy. Years ago my children took part in a Flat Stanley project, which is where you draw a character, laminate it, make a diary for it and post it around the world to other children. When you receive someone else's Flat Stanley you take it with you for a month and record it's travels in the diary with words, photos, entrance tickets etc and then send it on to the next person on the list. Then at the end of the year the Flat Stanleys return to their makers with the diary's of their journeys. Doing that for a year was nothing compared to what you do, but even so it was still an effort to remember to take Stanley out with us so we could photograph him in various places and then print out the photos etc. My children were quite young and not great at writing and so needed to be supported in creating the diaries, it's a great idea though.
As I am watching this it is 11 am in the Midwest of the United States. It is -13 ( Celsius) here and we are having our first blizzard. So, some of us are quite envious of your current location and your travels. Thank you so much for sharing and transporting me across the pond as I watch the snow barricade me further into my house. 🤣❤️
I am in the Midwest, too, but loving the snow! I just got in from shoveling my extra long driveway. I wish we would had this snow for Christmas. Not everyone is a snow person, though, so I am sorry you are not enjoying it. :o(
I live in Central Ohio and we unexectedly got an inch of snow this afternoon. Its lovely to look at but it will make tomorrow's commute a challenge.
Wow! Travel, Family, Lavender, snails, friends, and mustard! What else could anyone want! Great video.
I’m loving your road trip Nicki & seeking all the places you visit en route 😊 Holly is such a well behaved & well travelled dog ☺️🐾❤️
Thanks Darren we appreciate that you are a part of us being able to share these wonderful videos.. What a wonderful trip home . Loving every minute of it. Thanks Carlo for the lovely drone footage.
Love this vlog! Such gorgeous places to see. Please drive safely. Warm regards, from sunny South Africa.
30:40 that's the most thoughful gift ever! So happy you have them now! Absolutely serendipitous too.
Safe travels! The vibrating bag was so funny! 😆 The architecture and scenery along the way is absolutely beautiful! It amazes me that the master craftsmen built such beautiful buildings without today’s convenient tools. Really enjoyed the drone footages.
Happy New Year from Nebraska, USA 🇺🇸!
Americans in France. Nice people. You and Carlo are having a wonderful trip home.
What a fun trip this was - since Carlo has now retired hope to see more of the traveling Blogs. 👍❤️
One does not expect an Italian to know ANY foreign languages, but your French pronunciation leaves much to be desired. Avignon was the Papal seat for over 200 years; that was the Papal residence! If you are planning any travel vlogs, either stay in Italy or learn the correct pronunciation of places you visit, keep well, keep safe!
@@annatamparow4917 that is rude, if you cannot say anything nice, then do not say anything at all.
@@annatamparow4917
🤦🏻♀️SERIOUSLY? Shame on you!!
@@annatamparow4917 I agree, quite rude.
@@kristinahawkins6694 I reported the @Anna Tamparow comment. Not only was it rude, but passive aggressive racism towards Italians (many are multi-lingual), English and anyone who's native accents comes though when speaking another language. How is anyone meant to practice a language if they don't use it? Most kind people appreciate if someone attempts the language of the country that they are in, rather than the visitor assuming that they can/should speak theirs.
Thanks Kristina (and others) for calling out the inappropriate and unnecessary comment.
👱♀️❤
This might be my favorite video of yours. Hard to judge because there have been so many one recently that I've been very fond of. You might have an idea how lucky you are that you live in Europe. But I will to you I feel like I was born on the wrong continent. I was lucky enough to be stationed in Germany while I was a soldier. You showing me what you see while driving down the road floods me with only the greatest memories. Thanks for doing what you do and brining joy to the jealous masses!
I loved seeing the beautiful fields and trees as you were driving in France. Thank you for showing us the towns jn France too. Thankyou for the lovely videos of home too. Love your videos.❤
I was afraid to see what was vibrating until I saw it was the electric toothbrush!😂🤣😂🤣 Thanks for the laugh!!!!!Awwwwww Carlo telling you he loves you is so romantic🥰 God bless you both!
Thanks again for sharing your travels back home and thanks for Darren and his wife for staying with them and touring you around it was such a beautiful treat. I keep all my kitchen utensils in a champagne bucket, very handy. I'm hoping your dad will come visit you in Positano this year. Safe travel back home.
You are so welcome Nydia! I keep my kitchen utensils in a champagne bucket as well. I have a collection of many so I put them to use by storing beans/rice etc in them on the shelves. In summer and winter I also use them for potted plants and of course, anytime we open Prosecco or Champagne :-)
Fun, Educational, and Beautiful!! Best channel on YT!!
Oh this was so much fun...you took the exact trip we did while in Provence including Gordes, LaCoste and Roussillon and of course the fields. Your day was nice and clear which really made for some beautiful scenery even in winter. We did brave the "heaving crowds" that Dana mentioned and went during full bloom lavender and I would encourage you to make that trip in very late June or early July. It was magical!! This brought back so many memories. The movie "A Good Year" was filmed in Gordes and surrounding areas and you would enjoy it now that you have experienced the area. Thanks and safe journey back to Italy.
Nicki and Carlo…just wanted to say how much I loved the special way you wove music into this video…it was so perfect how you changed it up for France (amazing!!) as well as wove into the scenes the wonderful music familiar to us when filming in Positano. It really was quite a cinematic masterpiece….true art, heartfelt and emotionally very stirring. ❤️🌹❤️💐
I just love your videos. I love the care you take in filming and editing. I love the care you have for each other and for Holly and Sky and all other family members and friends. Your dad is a darling. What a life! All those experiences as a cameraman and producer! Thank you for sharing with us. Thank you, Carlo, for answering all our questions. Thank you, Nicki, for being so compassionate. And Holly! What a good dog.
Darren and Darla's gift bucket is wonderful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Love from Vermont
I just couldn't wait for today ,I was so excited to see where you were going to take us to ,as always I was not disappointed. Carlos is so funny he kills me.
So nice to get a early train. Gave you more daylight to travel. Hate the bad weather but it is January. Just look how wide the streets are at the beginning of trip. By the time you got down south to Apt streets are more like Italy. Even some of the homes remind me of Italy. Wish you had more time to explore there. Some very different things. Darren and Darla were so nice to ask you to visit and host you and your small doggy. I would love you to go back and explore more with them. Such nice people and live in a beautiful area.
Can not wait for you to have Luca over for a dinner and set your table with new linens and use that ice bucket for the wine you got him. Set with all the little treats you collected on your trip. The butter, Jam, cheese, mustard. He works so hard all year for everyone in family, he deserves it.
Merci Beaucoup Patti, we would love to have them come back as well and hopefully Spring Summer they will. Southern France is very much like Italy and used to be Italy in some parts like Menton. Why we love it in the South. Its Italy and France combined
Thank you to both of you! I really enjoyed watching this episode (can it be called episode?!), it was beautiful, educational, humbling and gave sense of appreciation for everything we have on this planet: beautiful nature, amazing work of architecture, and just lovely people ❤️
Thank you for sharing and spreading it all 🙏
I’m Canadian, and I definitely sympathise with poor Carlo. The frosted countryside IS so lovely….but I could sense Carlo’s relief at blue skies …🥰
Luckily there is you defending my ideas, thanks!😁😘
@@NickiPositano 😘
Love, Love, Love traveling with you two on your journey! Being stuck at home in the cold of Canada (!), its nice to see some sunshine in beautiful France. Thanks for taking us with you.
Lovely, lovely Thank you for taking us along. So nice to meet Darren and Darla. Cheers to them too
Those drone pics were worth waiting for. Provence was fabulous. What thoughtful gifts from Darren and Darla!❤️
It was so great watching you guys today. I have been hospitalized with Covid since Dec. 30th, very close to intubation but by the grace of God survived. So I have missed all your awesome Christmas videos. Time to catch up! You guys look great and made me happy again. Thank you
@Looking Back...prayers for complete recovery and grateful for God's tender mercies. Stay well!
What a lovely trip. ❤️ France is still quite pretty in the middle of winter.
Frosty & cold in France but still wonderful to see. Thank you. Love Provence especially when it’s so quiet. Dijon looked magical as well. Looking forward to the next part of your journey back home to Positano.
Your video brought so many lovely memories. Last time I visited Avignon it was in the summer of 2019 during the Festival d'Avignon .. it was really magical and I hope I'll get there again in the following years. I haven't been able to travel much ever since.. you are so lucky to be able to enjoy all these wonderful places amid this pandemic! Have a great time! 🌞
Hello Nicki and Carlo and Holly. Dijon is absolutely beautiful. Thanks for showing us all the towns. Umm, those were not two pine trees at that first house. Lol. I lived in Orleans France for a couple years. Jean d’arc was famous there. The champagne bucket filled with treats was delightful. Hello to Darren and Darla. Thanks Darren for fixing Nicki’s computer in the past.
Bonjour to you Marilyn from Provence :-) Darren is happy to keep Nicki's computer up and running so we all can enjoy her videos every week :-)
My son tells me: Nicki and Carlo Positano in the morning and in the evening 😂😂😂 always watching it re-runs re-watch 💙 Grazie Mille.
You probably doesn't need to go grocery shopping with all those thoughtful gifts you've received and food from the garden ...such a blessing🙏🏽😊 much❤❤❤ to you Nicki and Carlo for your lovely videos😊
I don’t comment on your videos but love them. This one in France is absolutely beautiful. So many beautiful ancient places. I wish I could see more. Loved this video. Thank you.
Absolutely LOVED meeting your dad and hearing his amazing and wonder-FULL story!!!
Challenge for Carlos, ONLY English (on camera and off), for one week, it would be amazing for him and all of us that appreciate his excellent work!
i was teary seing nicki's dad being left behind because that's also what i always get through everytime i leave my family and grandma from the province 😭
Also glad that Carlo have all the time in the world to do this travel things.Your family is such warm persons.Fighting!
What a fun road trip! You always manage to capture the heart of the places where you travel. Just want to say (5:08) when you woke Holly up while she was sleeping on Carlo’s lap… the look she gave you was hilarious! She was not amused 😆! She’s adorable! 🐶 Hope you had a safe trip home. Can’t wait to see what’s next!
So fascinating! LOVE seeing all those gorgeous places! The colors are just beautiful. My Daughter moved part time to Nice France and ive been telling her about the places YOU travel and why she needs to visit-She actually has been doing some traveling and making notes of the places you share! Thank you for all the facts, content & your time-including the drone views. ❤️
Amazing video and beautiful drone footage of the lands. And the gift basket at the end was so full of wonderful treats.
Yes Carlo, it’s very cold in Canada! The last few days, we’ve been averaging -20°C! Thank you both for sharing your journeys with us. Looking forward to the day we can return to beautiful Italy.
Lol…Carlo speaking about how cold he is and how he cannot believe how cold it can be in Canada!
Lol Carlo, where I live, the past month has been minus 45 degrees! And overnight with the wind it was minus 55 degrees! When it is that cold, it isn’t cold so much as it just hurts to be outside!!
Carlo, You are absolutely right! How do we live here? WHY for the love of god do I live somewhere where the air hurts my face?!? Lol
I live near the Rocky Mountains in Alberta, 🏔 🇨🇦 it is absolutely beautiful here in our short summers… waiting for summer gives us something to look forward to when it is minus 50 with snow everywhere lol
Watching your videos of your beautiful life in 🇮🇹 helps me escape for a little while from my winter wonderland reality 🥶 ❄️
Thank you for your videos 💕❤️ They help me to pass the time until summer is here once again ☀️ ⛅️ 🏝
Carlo- you are right about the difference in cameras. Nicki- haven’t seen those glasses on you and really love them on you 💕. Thanks for sharing your journey ❤️😊🙏. For your information Carlo- it’s -30 in northern Ontario (Canada) today ❄️🥶
Wow, we are melting in 44 degrees in South Africa!
Hi Nancy, I’m in Southern Ontario, Toronto to be exact. It’s about -12c today, not too bad, but not for Carlo!! 😂😂
Right, it's not for me!😅😘
@@NickiPositano Definitely not, but summer here is fantastico 🥰
@@claudetteduplessis4345 how do you manage such heat - eat lots of salads and no carbs.
I am addicted to you and you family and armchair travel to Italy most days. Thank you for bringing me so much pleasure.
I'm just so loving these travel vlogs and feeling so nostalgic but inspired for when the time comes! Your filming is so beautiful as are the towns you visited. Tell Carlo that he was right about Canadian temps, as I sat watching this video in southern Ontario Canada, it is - 17° C with a wind chill of -22° !!
Did you ever live in Etobicoke? And have 2 brothers?
@@mnitchke1 No. McGregor is my married name.😊
But the "motorway of the English" is great.. No traffic, no jams, smooth driving and calming scenery 😊.
Holly is adorable as always 🤗.
I learnt when moving to Germany from the UK "there is no bad weather, just bad clothes"... The first Winter, I thought I would die when we had - 10c but this was because I wasn't dressed correctly. Since I have the correct Winter clothes, I love really cold weather because I am warm, so I can enjoy the sunshine and blue sky that is typical with very cold weather!
Nice trip! Nice to meet Darren, the man who made Nicki's editing work!! Dijon and Apt so picturesque. Glad you all had wonderful holidays ❤
What a lovely, relaxing way to travel, I remember those days.
I also remember Darren.
I see Positano isn't the only place with stunning scenery! Just wonderful places!
Thank you so much Nicki and Carlo for taking me on this wonderful journey through France on your way back home. Beautiful
That was so enjoyable to watch that I’m going to watch it all over again ! Love that Provence gift bucket so much !
I savored every bit of this video as looking out from my window is two feet of snow and dreary skies. Thanks for taking me away if but for a moment.
Love this trip. It always amazes me on the beauty of all of Europe. The way the landscape and the architecture all seamlessly fits together and is unique to each region by comparison to most of N America which is so much younger. Generally speaking building and land use here seems more geometric and less organic. Oh, by the way Carlo keep the beard, it is very becoming.
I found Carlos’ cold temperature comments very funny! I woke this morning in Ontario, Canada to temperatures of -25 and feels like -32! I’ll certainly need my warm coat, snow boots, hat and Sherpa mittens for my walk today!
Oh I've had the most wonderful time traveling with you. All the way to England and those adventures and now returning home! Looking forward to the next. Happy journey!
Bless Darla and Darren💞...the napkins! I thoroughly enjoyed that trip from my land of counterpane😆😁🥳. Thank you both for sharing. xxx
Love coming along on your journey back home. Love the area where your friends live, and Gault is stunning. Walking around this time of year is a treat. Hopefully Carlo was not too cold. 😉 Ciao from Canada Carlo!
Awwww… seeing your Dad’s face when you were about to leave 😿 He will miss you, it is hard to live far away from a loved one. Of course you are happy for them because they are living a happy and full life, but, it is hard to part ❤️💕 Your Dad is just precious! Xoxo
I find myself smiling through the entire last few vlogs. I appreciate how you seem to know no strangers. Thanks for sharing your journey. P.S. I live near Detroit, Michigan, USA. The tunnel (and separately, a bridge) connecting us to Windsor, Ontario, Canada is a paved driving tunnel...basically a paved road you drive on to the other side. So yes, I did imagine the euro tunnel differently. Really interesting!
You’re thinking makes sense! Stay warm!
Some of my favourite places there. The Luberon in late Spring is magical. Up before sunrise I’ve explored around Gourdes, Lacoste, Bonnieux, Roussillon several times. Ridley Scott’s ‘A Good Year’ really captures the atmosphere right there, just as Peter Mayle’s books do. Can’t wait to go back 👍🏻😊
Your videos enhance my Sunday experience. I’m thankful to you Nicki and Carlo. ❤️
I enjoyed your showing the gifts inside the champagne bucket.
Bella domenica!!
Wonderful video! Love seeing you dancing in the lavender fields. So thoughtful of Darla for the stunning napkins..love them! Thank you for such a treat on a sunny & cold Sunday afternoon in Ontario 🇨🇦 ❤
Amazing as always! I hope you had a safe and fun trip home. I am always looking forward for the videos! Sending lots of love from the Philippines!
I side with Carlo always! Lol. I hate to be really cold, hell I am an Australian! Anyway, you are correct Nicki, it was the perfect time to visit, and film these stunningly beautiful little French towns, without tourists blocking your shots! Perfect guys!!
The scenery has been spectacular , thank you for allowing us to go along with you.
Road in France is pretty desolate--but they have to grow crops somewhere--and that usually means flat pastureland...we must be grateful for lots of places to grow things to eat...just be thankful that you don't have to live there full time...Dijon is beautiful...I agree with Carlo--much too cold...Lyon should be lovely as well, too bad you didn't have time to stop...Avignon is lovely...Provence is always beautiful--and the weather is better--Carlo, you finally got to use your drone--wonderful! Lovely Cathedral, town and market--what a view! Lavender is gorgeous--thank goodness they are preserving the bees~we actually receive some of these products in the US--the Bonne Ma fig jam and the tea--Pakka--they are wonderful--enjoy! Fill the champagne bucket with lemons or apricots--depending on the time of year and put in center of table for people to nosh...you have had quite an amazing journey! dts/usa
I'm green with envy, what a fabulous trip home # greetings from Ireland
Hey we could be related! 🙃
I’m so enjoying all your adventures. As a Canadian, I loved Carlo’s honourable mention of our winter ❄️ weather. It’s currently anywhere between -20C and -30C most of the time so -2C sounds quite balmy!! Its ice fishing season! It’s character-building and while our winters are long, it makes us all that much more appreciative when spring raises it’s pretty head. Thanks again for all you do for us here who continue to experience lockdowns (we’re coming out of our 4th one on Monday). Couch potato traveling with you has been wonderful. Ciao!
Hi Nicki &Carlo ... that was a wonderful trip .. I almost felt I was with you ... loved it all.. the beautiful town of Dijon and you’re lovely friends ! Hope you managed to buy the wine you were after . Looking forward to seeing the rest of you’re journey 👌✨
Love to you all ..Pauline xx
I laughed at your depiction of the Motorway of the English "as the most boring road in France," because it reminded me so much of driving in much of the American Midwest of my childhood.
Just before the pandemic started (Jan/feb 2020)my sisters and I went on a French adventure taking in amongst other things Paris and Mont St Michel, it was amazing visiting somewhere like MSM out of season, without tourists so I know how you felt xx
Carlo, I know exactly what you mean about the cold! I grew up in Bermuda where the coldest it gets is usually around 15C but I live in Canada now and it's been below zero for most of January. I don't even want to go outside! I wonder if I can persuade my husband to move back to Bermuda 🤔 I have really enjoyed coming on your travels with you! ❤
Enjoing your Instagram stories 🤍 now I’m ready to enjoy your video with a cup of coffee ☕️ love how Carlo was sooo happy getting back home. It’s not easy trying to speak another language for so many days 😜
Ah yes, you must go back to France and show us more, so beautiful there. What a lovely gift bucket from Darren and Darla and maybe they should do a TH-cam channel. And, lucky Luca gets his wine...good eye spotting that little wine shop. Loved you sharing your trip through France, merci!
Bonjour Adele from Provence! Although we are not youtubers like Nicky/Carlo we do have our page we would love to have you join along on facebook and instagram. We travel all over and post photos and some videos :-)
what a beautiful family you have Nikki. It's nice that Holly is also included in your wonderful trips. I was wondering, does Holly ever use a doggie coat with the different climates?
No, we don't use anything like that, but we think we know cold isn't a problem for Holly, how do we know? Because we went to places where there was snow, and Holly was rolling in it all the time, so we deduced she wasn't cold, then we can always have misinterpreted.😘
I love watching your family it’s so beautiful makes my day and I watch over and over again 💕
Holly doesn’t wanna leave grandad 🥰
Good afternoon! I would guess, that this town, Dijon , might be the original spot where the famous French mustard was created. We are actually having a heatwave Carlo! It is, 9° C! The snow is almost all melted away. However tomorrow it's supposed to snow again! C'est la vie dans le Canada! It's so nice you get to visit people along your way. It is a beautiful town. The pigments are fascinating. The drone shots are great Carlo. Not enough of them but wonderful! I know time does not permit always!My guess was right about the mustard. Such a lovely bunch of prizes from your friends! So cute of you to dance among the shorn lavender plants Nicki, you funny lady! I am so thankful that it was easy permission to get through France. It was very sobering back at the beginning of your visit with the news of near lockdown!
Thank you once again for including us on your trip. Your background music was lovely, I especially enjoyed that you were able to find “Sur le Pont D’Avignon” for your background while you were on the bridge. Brilliant! Safe travels! ☀️🚗😎
Hi icky & Carlo….just love love watching the two of you cleaning tearing down walls and shopping. Arlo…you amaze me how clever you are. You both work with such love and enthusiasm. Good luck to you both. I love your new home and what you are doing with it. See you very anxiously next week. Dorothy CUNEO Orinda Ca near San Francisco. Ca USA👍👍👍👍🥰🥰🥰
