    Amaury,there’s absolutely no way we’d be mad at you for using the trailer to move the antiques. Everyone watching this knows the care and love you put into restoring the Chateau. We all know you were as careful as possible and you sometimes have to use your heavy equipment for delicate tasks. Keep up the amazing work. We all respect your dedication deeply. ❤

    My favourite vlog Stephanie - happy tears 🥹. My long-awaited visit to Venice with my late husband in 1999 - after a coach ride from Garda through the industrial hinterland of Venice, we stepped into a water bus, turned a corner and every Canaletto opened up before my eyes. I just relived that with your enthusiasm and love for the city. Thank you 💕

      Yes and filming it to Vivaldi was just perfect!! Thank you Stephanie and Phillip for your vision of beauty that shows us how the world could be if we would just see it... & BE it! What a lovely couple or several weeks you've been having first in Vienna another place of magic, music, and beauty... to Venice. Next thing you'll be flying to Venus to partake in the banquet of eternal Love!! 😘❤💛💙

    You picked an excellent time of year to visit as no crowds and lucky with the weather. When you view paintings and photos of Venice it’s easy think it’s all the artists eye, then when you arrive you really see the beauty, it’s as if you’ve stepped back into history. Totally understand your feelings.

    Saw a movie about Venice once that got into how difficult things are to find; it will creep you out to watch it, but if that interests you, it's called "The Comfort of Strangers." There is a lot of beautiful Venetian scenery in it!
    I also love the glass escalator tubes in CDG airport! I was there only once, when I was 17, in 1975, and they so impressed me. Then when the Alan Parsons Project's I, Robot album came out a few years later, imagine my surprise to see that the cover of it had a photo of those glass tubes that looked almost exactly like the one I'd taken when I was going through them!

It was beautiful. Amaury is such a good person who seems to get the jobs where someone has to step up and get it done. He certainly does. I’m pleased you arrived safely and it is so wonderful to have that bouncing bundle of joy who is Lancelot to greet you upon your return. Thank you. May you please take care and stay safe.

You did a beautiful job presenting this city in all its splendor. Thank you. ❤❤❤

    When I visited Florence, I stayed in a quad and someone across the way was a pianist. This was a super cheap hotel btw but my afternoon serenades were delightful. It was November so I got road-rash on my legs in Venice. But it was still fun. I’m the whitest American person on earth but eating pizza on the church steps, some actual Italians asked me for directions. No so parlare Italiano! I was in black, as a tourist should, and I imagine I blended in. So fun! Such great memories! 😅👏💃🤷‍♀️😂💞💐

You point out so many places that we would never know about without your knowledge of Venice and the historical and religious treasures to be found off the beaten track. It’s always such a beautifully filmed and edited video and I marvel at how you produce it all in the one day! It was so lovely when you were stopping to comment on the music school etc for our benefit as you hurried to the lampshade shop, but I was also saying, ‘ Keep going Steph or you will be making yourself late.’👏💖💖💖

    Imagine actually living in Venice! It would be like living inside of a painting. But, then, I thought the same thing about parts of France & Germany when I was there. The boat ride montage with the music was spectacular--especially the shot of the reflection on the roof of the boat. ❤ "It looks like a urine sample, darling." 😄 Good not to waste it. "The alter boy." 😄Lancelot was like a jumping bean, he was so excited to see you again. 🐕
