I like the strategically placed "e" on the thumbnail! 🤣🤣🤣

[@mrinalguptavirmani3469]

Lol

[@gravy6581]

Family channel!!😂😂😉

[@heathersong2798]

I was going to say this lol

[@kaylee.henshaw]

Lol that's what I was thinking when I saw it

[@samjw5074]

Jacob helping Duncan eat that fruit warmed my heart. Your family is so full of love.

[@beckybeckz906]

Parker needs his own reality show I would watch it!!! He’s so entertaining and so adorable!!!

[@kaitlos]

I studied abroad in Florence for a month this summer and, hands down, my favorite memory of the trip was seeing David! You’re totally right, seeing the actual statue is a moving experience. It is so massive in person! It was a special moment that I’ll never forget.

[@lizzielady27]

When Parker was right up at the camera asking questions, my 4 month old wouldn't look away and just stared at him and smiled, she might be in love hahaha. Loving the series, gives me hope for traveling with baby in the future, we live in the UK and do want to visit Italy!

[@ada3360]

"Parker is taking control of his destiny" LMFAO YES PARKER YES!!!!!

[@gingerroxx]

I'm so glad Chris talked about seeing the David in person--I couldn't agree more. I saw it 20 years ago and there's something about that piece that is simply magical.

[@carollongoria7556]

I love Parker’s expressions....he is totally channeling Colleen/Miranda when he talks. Love it!!

[@aeobrien]

The architecture all over Italy, but especially Florence, is SO UNBELIEVABLE! Also, Christopher I totally relate to learning about something in art history and seeing it in person...it is so incredible. Can't wait to go to Florence someday!

[@LivTours]

Let us know when you're in town!

[@RoisinColette]

I went to Florence last Easter and it was amazing! I would go back in a heartbeat 😁 I studied art history in secondary school ( high school) so when I got to see the paintings,churches and sculptures in person I thought it was extraordinary! I’m reliving it through you guys 💕

[@nicolemelendez4415]

Omg i love how the E of Florence is systematically placed in the thumbnail 😂😂😂

[@k.239]

these vlogs are actually interesting to me, so thank you

[@KatiePitre2502]

Wow I remember being in Florence Italy when I was 14, I'm 22 now. Seeing all those statues brings back memories. I also loved the Piazza Del Duomo

[@KisDraga]

Art photos versus the experience in life is so true, Christopher! An incredible feeling

[@1bzymom.Of2Kids]

Parker's energy and excitement is contagious! I love seeing how the older children watch out for their young siblings....such a treasure!

[@carollongoria7556]

Seeing The David on this video is gorgeous...I can only imagine what it is like in real life!!! I want to “Live It”!!!!

[@LivTours]

Let us know when you're in town!

[@sofiarasmussen9180]

my face LIT UP when I saw you posted!

[@abbiegclark]

I had no idea how big the David is!! Wow! Seeing you standing next to it was like, "Wow! That is HUGE!" It so beautiful!

[@dylanjackdavidelliott1119]

Re watching this seris to 2 years later Parker is so cute when hes vlogging its unbelievable ❤❤

[@LizColeVlogs]

Hey Jacob! You have the same birthday as my Dad - aka FunForLouis’ Grandpa (you know - the guy with the bus with the ball pit!). Happy (belated) Birthday

[@lillianamaxwell3622]

I had just been watching the old 2010 vlogs!! I laughed so much!! Old memories and nostalgia!! Love you'll!! 💕💕

[@nnekapat6889]

Parker: It didn't go all the way in so I just pointed it in Christopher: Parker makes his own Destiny Me: Love it

[@leona5732]

Florence looks AMAZING!!

[@Steph-jb3cx]

I’ve been to Rome, Florence, Pissa and Venice and saw David, I went to the Vatican, Colosseum and the leaning tower of Pissa😁

[@chaz12582]

I’ve been enjoying all of the buildings, but that grain purchasing fancy building is definitely my favorite! It’s just so fun!

[@kirahu5048]

I really enjoyed this vlog because I went to Florence last year on a school trip. I loved seeing everything I already saw and it made me realise how badly I want to go back. It's a beautiful city with a lot of history, and that definitly makes me want to go back, even though we had to be on a bus for 22 hours,... Thanks for showing, keep up the good work, i love ya!!

[@Origine25]

13:06 shout out to that black guy who picked up something on the ground that someone in front had lost xD Nice people

[@xtinaaaaaaaaa]

aww Jacob taking care of Duncan is too cute

[@Shebolebolee]

I went to the Yellow Bar when I visited Florence, and two of my friends and I sat with a regular named Giuseppe--who worked across the street and ate there most every day for lunch. The language barrier didn't stop us from conversing with him and getting his recommendations for things to visit. (Also, I've been loving these videos! They make me miss Italy terribly, but I think I might go with Livitaly for my next trip ;) )

[@KisDraga]

the church with the grain shoots is so interestig! -- its all incredibly interesting.

[@ivoryrose3126]

Jakobs faces the statue in Joy and being awestrucked touched my heart! Ilysm greeting from germany!

[@spaceandthyme]

Florence was my favorite city when I went to Europe last time 💚 it was cool hearing about the grains as I didn't learn that when I was there.

[@KiwiCakeful]

That pasta looks incredible!!! I'm so hungry now!

[@zoew_]

OH MY GOSH I CANT GET ENOUGH OF JACOB AND DUNCAN SITTING IN THE SEAT TOGETHER! SO CUTE

[@jennz3432]

I went to Florence this summer too and it’s so nice to relive it through your video! I only went for a day as well and we tried to squeeze in as much as we could, including the things you saw and the ponte vecchio and the view from piazzale michelangelo and i still feel like i only saw 5% of what the city has to offer! Really enjoying your videos xx

[@ThatGirlT77]

Sept. 8th was my mom's birthday, she passed on to Heaven when I was 12 yrs old but yeah, that was her birthday, so she and Jacob shared a birthday as well! 😘 I love the tour guides btw, they seem very awesome!

Fun fact! The tower shown at 8:37 was actually the inspiration for another clock tower in Baltimore, Maryland. You can look up "Bromo Seltzer Arts Tower for more info about that :). I actually saw both towers last summer.
