Can't wait to see the new van and the dogs are so chill through every step to get there. What great pups!

[@theexPAWers]

Hey ❤.. Yeah the pups have been amazing, way better than we thought.. Perfect little travel companions xx

[@chai5381]

Charlie's little apprehensive face turning to relief after he relaxed on the train was lovely to see. Sweetheart. So far so good!

[@theexPAWers]

Yeah😊.. Both Dizzee and Charlie have been great though out the whole journey, better than we expected 😊

[@shivsnorman]

We really appreciate all the hard work you are both putting in to include us all in your journey. Thank you. Safe travels ❤

[@Lisa-16]

Yes! They are amazing vloggers! ❤

[@theexPAWers]

awwwww, Thankyou☺️☺️xx

[@maryverhoeff50]

My thoughts exactly. Sure do appreciate the hard work and effort taking us along. Love it!

[@donna-trevorsintransit]

Aw the boys on the train, they did so well. Dizzy melted my heart sat looking out the window all relaxed.

[@theexPAWers]

Yeah, they loved the train journey.. Was better than we expected 😊

[@geert0202]

You Guys have THE most well-behaved doggies!!

[@theexPAWers]

Haha, they are just exhausted the whole time from doing so much and being with us all the time that they are too tired to be naughty 😂

[@dianebaker5243]

The doggies was fantastic on the train. Exciting to see the new van.🥰🥰

[@theexPAWers]

Us too! Thanks so much for watching..😁

[@christinestraw5795]

I think its wonderful that you take your two brilliant Dogs everywhere with you...Best of luck to you all 😂

[@theexPAWers]

Thanks so much.. It’s been so cool taking the dogs with us on this trip, they’ve managed so well 😊

[@jillstevenson413]

Holy cow! I’m exhausted after watching that video 😮 Just a suggestion to continue to try to contact that car rental company to make sure they find the car! Friends of ours, when visiting Spain, left their rental in the airport parking lot with other rentals. They thought everything was fine until 3 months later they received a phone call from Spain asking them where the car was. They live in MIchigan, US! Too funny. Keep having fun. I can hardly wait for pics of the new van!! ❤

[@theexPAWers]

Thanks, yeah we wanted to cover ourselves as have heard lots of horror stories, so took pictures of the car and dropping the keys off.. 😅

[@daveheath6297]

Hi Nick & Sarah, loving your travels, keep going soon be there

[@theexPAWers]

Yay! Thanks so much Dave 😊

[@Beepy-the-Vellfire]

Great to see the dogs so chilled on the train, I hope the rest of the journey goes smoothly too. 😍

[@theexPAWers]

Thanks so much.. The dogs were great on the train.. The whole journey actually, better than we thought 😊

[@Beepy-the-Vellfire]

@@theexPAWers I have yet to take my little one on a train. I'll need to do it as part of her assistance dog training but ugh, wheelchairs and trains. 🙄

[@daemonpiscis1792]

I really enjoyed the program! I’ve always wanted to know what the French trains were like along with Bordeaux. Moreover, the patience you guys have between yourselves and the dogs is astounding. My wife and I travel, however, our journeys are punctuated with spats and swearing, how you keep calm is a mystery to me. Good luck with the rest of your trip.

[@theexPAWers]

awwwww, Thankyou, we really enjoy traveling like this and got quite good at it when we went on a 3 year backpacking trip around Asia and Australasian few years ago.. Was dubious about the dogs traveling with us this time but they’ve been brilliant ☺️xx

[@daemonpiscis1792]

@@theexPAWers Hi guys, I loved the second helping of your travels. However, I would like to mention an amazing place next to Germany, Karlovy Vary. I stayed there for a year. It is beautiful and full of culture. The illustrious people who have stayed there range from Mozart, Beethoven, Chopin, Karl Marx, Johnny Depp, and John Travolta, to mention a few. Moreover, near the Richmond Hotel, Beethoven got his inspiration for the storm in his pastoral symphony. One can see the remains of the Taven where a besotted Beethoven mourned the loss of the love of his life because of his coach crashing. The crash made him two hours late in which the mystery woman, his “Darling Beloved” disappeared into the annals of history. If you have the chance, visit Karlovy Vary, AKA Bohemia, Brian.

[@daemonpiscis1792]

Ouphs, I thought my first message had not gone, a thousand apologies, Brian.

[@wildlifewales6016]

As always, I am in awe of you both! Carrying all that luggage with two little dogs in tow and not a swear word to be heard! 🤣🤣 Well not on camera at least! Dizzee doing his best to keep awake on the train but failing miserably was so sweet ❤️ Hope the rest of the journey goes smoothly 🤞. Thanks yet again for including us on this very interesting and entertaining journey and looking forward to joining you again on Sunday. Safe travels! 😍

[@theexPAWers]

awwwww, Thankyou so much.. It’s been easier than we thought with the dogs, they’ve been such good boys 😊☺️xx

[@TJ-mc8uh]

You two are amazing, toting all the backpacks speeding along like it was nothing, plus your two fur babies in tow. Thanks for sharing your journey. Be safe.

[@theexPAWers]

awwwww, Thankyou☺️☺️xx

[@lisakenn2081]

Oh my goodness you two. Thank you so much for bringing this content. I am 3/4 into your vlog and just needed to comment. Your lovely boys are a credit to you both and I for one really appreciate all the hard work 😓 you have put into bringing us quality content. Take very good care on your travels and I am routing that your new van brings much joy. You all deserve it. I cannot travel as I look after my daughter and your videos lift my spirits and help me see the places I wish I could do physically. God bless you both, your all lovely ❤

[@theexPAWers]

awwwww, Thankyou so much for the kind words and positive feedback Lisa, we send you lots of love and hope you have a happy weekend ☺️☺️xx

The pups are doing so well...looking to you for reassurance. As long as mom and dad and cool and they are with you they are good to go ;) The doggies are happier with you than without you...what an adventure too!

[@sweettina2]

What wonderful babies. Wondering where mommy and daddy are taking us this time! They are some well traveled babies. I can't wait to see the new van! I've always been crazy about taking my tiny home wherever I go, mom said I was born with my bags packed. I always wanted to visit distant shores, the places I would see in my school books, but it wasn't to be. So, I live vicariously through the two of you! My chihuahua, Molly, staring at the screen, gets in a tizzy when she hears your babies bark. Lol, she's ready to jump in and help a fellow doggie. My prayers for a wonderful journey and blazing new trails with your new home on wheels. I hope it's everything you hoped it would be. I'm excited to see how you make it your own, and the new places you'll go. Onward, through the rain! Love you guys. Happy trails! 💝🙏 Florida, U.S.A.
