Wow - thank you! ❤️ Knowing these vlogs bring you so much joy has made my day! 🥰💫

[@behindthegateatnumber8926]

So lovely being so close to a beach like that one!! Everything so blue!! 👌🏾🦋

[@SB-wq6nr]

I enjoyed that you put music instead of the car noise, because the scenery is even more magical.

[@thiathornton8359]

Thanks for the giggles…your family brings joy in these difficult times…I really enjoy your adventures and your daily life in a beautiful part of the world. Yes Fern I don’t do well in the heat either however I do enjoy how you describe your lives…💕

I moved to Malta from Ireland 10 years ago , its taken me 2 years to get used to the heat and the mossies lol ..... at the moment its 41 degrees here , I keep my house in darkness curtains closed windows shut , I dont go out between 11am and 5pm as I work form home any way now , its a learning curve to adapt to this ,,the wee dogs ,I put wet tshirts on them in the day ,,,,,Im sure you will be fine xxx

[@LOTO8142]

Yes agree with S B, just lovely how you put the music and the scenery together, thank you for sharing Fern!

[@deborahpensarosa9289]

You don't have to explain when you have a day or two that you eat whatever you want!! Just wanted to thank you for sharing your outings and the beach scenes. Gotta keep dreaming of visiting your area! 🤗

[@fernibops]

❤️❤️❤️

[@carolinellewellyn4630]

Lovely video. Watching this from a wintery locked-down Sydney Australia. Travelling to Europe is such a far away dream for us Aussies now - have to live it through videos like this. Thanks for sharing.

[@fernibops]

Thank you! Sending love 💕💫

[@veronicas8253]

In south Australia where I’m from in the summer we get very hot days 40deg C plus and yes I hate it, I love the cold weather feel so much more alive 😶‍🌫️👍🏻😡

[@lucillegil5306]

Lovely video Fern, Ryan is so funny and I enjoyed the kids having a good time even in the heat , can’t wait for your next one thank you for sharing😊

[@sophieoates1016]

Beautiful video Fern - what a lovely part of the world you live in xx

[@susanhoover7925]

Lovely walk. Its been good n 90s and reached over 100 here in Northwest Montana for weeks. Not used to it. Watching you from Montana susan oh and nancys ballet was 🤩

[@lindahyles1331]

You are blessed to have such a good husband and great kids and such a best place to live 😁👍🏻🙏🏻

[@fernibops]

Thank you so much! ❤️ Forever grateful 💫

[@nadinetasmania]

41c - Ryan what are ya thinking?? LOL - beautiful vlog guys - love ya work!

[@ramonaduffey5016]

Lovely vlog. Highlight was seeing the lyric joy in Nancy's spontaneous water ballet.

[@prudencelay6067]

Yep, sometimes you just want to “eat everything in sight”. 😀. Absolutely! I]where I live in central Oregon is gets hot in July and August. Usually between 85-95 F. It is a very dry heat though so in the shade it’s about 10 degrees cooler. Love the dry heat!

[@gailgiroux8036]

Looks like a great day with your family and it’s so beautiful there. Enjoying your vlogs so much! Keep them coming 🧡♥️😎☀️

[@jennifermcdougal6962]

Cicadas aka the sound of summer! Beautiful and dreamy skies. The heat has taken a bit of a toll on our farm in Ohio. The goats, ducks,chickens, and guineas are all staying out of the sun and heat. Thank you all as always for sharing your lives. Love and blessings to you all. Break it down Ryan, Seth, and Nancy! Well done. Take a dip in the sea for me

[@fernibops]

Oh i bet it’s tough on the farm in the heat! Thank you - as always! Love to you & yours ❤️💫

[@christinesmith7391]

What a fabulous Sunday! Gorgeous scenery. It’s turned wet and cold here again and I was feeling fed up, but you’ve cheered me up, thanks.🙂☀️☀️

[@fernibops]

❤️❤️❤️

[@Daisyh542]

Another fab vlog. Fern and Ryan keeping it real. Look forward to the next one 😘

[@Kim-gh7xd]

Always love watching your family day out, a good start to my lockdown in Sydney…. Can’t wait for the next one

[@fernibops]

🥰❤️💫

[@rueminty1315]

I understand the adjustment to the heat. I was born and raised in Kent, England, we moved to Houston Texas when I was 15. It is HOTTTT here from end of May all the way through October. And it definitely gets into the triple digits. Houston is very humid though, I prefer dry heat but either way, it's like an oven! Took us a good 2 years + to really acclimate to the weather. But, if I had your pool, I would be in it all the time!! 😄

[@fernibops]

Wow! That’s hot! 🥵 Good to know it’s not just us & we’ll get used to it! July/Aug are scorching months! I should really make more use of the pool! 🤦🏼‍♀️ I’ve never been a water babe! 🙃💦

[@rueminty1315]

@@fernibops yes you'll definitely adjust! Thank God for AC though😄 I'm telling you, that pool of yours looks like heaven, and I bet you and the kiddos would have tons of fun😊 Anyway, I just love your videos, and truly enjoy watching them. You guys are such a sweet family, and so entertaining amd just REAL. It's nice to see other expats (I miss England so much!). Thank you for even replying to my comment, it's nice and truly shows you care and value your audience (it seems quite rare that an influencer actually responds to comments, especially as they gain a bigger audience). Love what you do girly, keep being you😊😊🙌💜💚💙

[@fernibops]

@@rueminty1315 🥺 thank you so much! Sending love fellow expat! ❤️💫

[@SandraVLewis1]

Very enjoyable and entertaining as usual xx

[@susanparker5765]

Oh Fern, thank you! Your vlog brought back so many happy memories... I spent a week in Antibes a few years back and did that walk into town for espresso and pastry every morning. The homes, the sea, the flowers, all so French and beautiful! Thank you again for bringing us along and allowing us to travel back to the Cote d'Azur today :-)

[@fernibops]

🥰🇫🇷❤️💫

[@FoodieForce]

Beautiful. Remember the heat is an adjustment, live like the locals and have siestas. I can’t believe how far Rye rides. I came off my bike today 🤣It wasn’t a pretty site, legs everywhere and screaming x

[@fernibops]

The thought of a siesta is tempting! 🥰💤 Ouch! 😯 hope you’re ok! 😬💗

[@FoodieForce]

@@fernibops just dented pride 😂

[@TheBluebellMoon2]

💓Love the honesty of your beautiful videos. 💓So natural. Have you got a movie projector for cinema night on your new back patio? Your garden is huge - room for a game of family boules / petanque. Get yourself to Elounda Crete for a few weeks summer break maybe! The children would love it. xx

[@fernibops]

🥰 Thank you so much! 🌸🦋💫

[@debevans1305]

I love your videos !! Makes my day so funny. I’m finally booked to get to my Nice apartment from Canada. So excited to come. Your videos keep me going for the life in the Rivera lol thank you !!!💕😊🇫🇷

[@fernibops]

Yey! 🥰🇫🇷💫 Thank you! ❤️

[@jennyjohnson9012]

Aww that was a lovely day out. I love that heat. Had a heatwave here in the UK and only me could have a covid jab and feel rotten for four days!! All better now and its still quite warm. What a crowd on the beaches, but at least you found somewhere quiet in the end. Lovely video Fern x

[@fernibops]

Thanks Jenny! 💞 Glad you’re feeling better from your jab! x

[@tracyguenther4547]

Hi Fern, That was a fun vlog. What a pretty beach and town. The kids are such troopers to walk so far. How did you all do it in the heat? It's hot here in Florida, you do get used to it. I love all the music you use! Enjoy your week!

[@fernibops]

Thank you! 🥰💞 they did some moaning towards the end but the beach payed off! 🏖🐚💫

[@angeladelossantos9038]

The insect in the tree is called a Cicada!

[@sarahparry3604]

Cicadas lol guys !

[@MarkWestHam]

We live in Cannes but had to return to UK for family reasons just before Lockdown in MArch 2019 - have been stuck there for one reason or another and ur videos have kept us going. We return to our home in Cannes on Tuesday evening and cannot bloody wait!!! thanks for the vids again xxxx

[@fernibops]

Hope your move back goes smoothly 🤞🏼 Sending love ❤️🇫🇷💫

[@deanafieldhouse9250]

I live in Ibiza Fern :)and I can totally relate to the heat thing - last Saturday I had a Spanish siesta and then went out in the evening ( albeit it Pizza & Ice cream !)

[@lanadean8994]

Those are cicadas and they’re making that sound. They shed their “skin” and leave it. As kids we would collect them. We were told that if you make a wish a squish them your wish comes true. Summers in Oklahoma are just so fun. Except for the heat! Ughhhh we’re goin into a heat wave this week and I’m not here for it!

[@nadinetasmania]

They sure are and I have actually never seen a live one - heard them - found skins when I lived in Sydney.So, I could have made a wish? They freaked me out - THAT is in the garden? LOL Now, I miss them - have not heard them in Tasmania. So wonderful to hear them in Fern's vlog! Cheers!

[@paularhodarmer3267]

So beautiful, loved it.

[@santaaugusta122]

Hot here too! 🇮🇹 I had a good laugh, eating sweets out of the jar. Same. Stay cool. Oh and glad the tire blow out didn't create an accident for Ryan. Take care 💕Kristi

[@nadinetasmania]

I was smiling watching the sweet binge with bread! All been there - its so damn cold here - we hit a bottle of red wine at 2.30pm Sunday - I was craving a chip butty - yes bread with hot chips - weather takes us to bizarre places - stay cool as I crank up the fire - like a fire bug! xN

[@blushernbrownies]

First thing I thought of was a cricket hahaha.. I remember those vlogs when you stayed in air bnbs it was all well worth it those views ye have now beautiful 😍 so lucky guys x

[@fernibops]

Another great video ❤

[@maricelaortega8489]

Beautiful, put a smile on my face.

[@helenpaneras8076]

They are cicadas they shed their skins and grow just like crabs do. Living in Australia it’s our summer music outside lol greetings love your vlogs 🦘🦘

[@glendacloud2911]

That’s a cicada and this year is called brood X they’re the same ones that appeared in 1987 and 2004. They live in the ground and come out every 17 years. I grew up with them in Missouri and there’s what’s making that sLund.

[@carwen8653]

Lovely vlog. xx

[@CJ-cn8hj]

Cicadas 😆. We use to be so fascinated by their shells in primary school in Australia, we would go looking for them all the time. I absolutely love your green spaces around your home Fern. Truly stunning. 🙌🏼💓🙌🏼

[@fernibops]

Aww I bet! ☺️ they’re fascinating! 💛💫

[@billhaze9337]

We enjoyed it

[@brianashton1428]

(Moira Ashton), That was a lovely vlog Fern, Poor Ryan getting a puncture! Our area is well known for cyclists- two went past yesterday and one passed out, it's best not to cycle in 38 degrees heat!! He got taken off in an ambulance-- probably suffering from heat exhaustion and dehydration 😔😔 How lovely you found the old outer cases of the Cicadas!!! Yes with this heat- it is a good idea to have a siester, (I don't know the name for it in France) Take care all of you- and KEEP COOL - 🥰😍🤩💗💗💗💗

[@fernibops]

🥰 thank you Moira! 💗 Sad about the cyclist! 😧🥺 We have lots here too! 🚴🏼‍♂️ Not much stops Rye getting out on his bike - he’s obsessed! 🙈 I do worry! Daily summer siestas sound tempting! 😉💤💕

[@nadinetasmania]

Yes, agree Moira - waves - another lovely vlog - Seth and Nancy at the end in the beautiful water - roll on warmer weather, here..snow flurries, ice and high tides - I hear you on taking a break in the heat of the day! Also, stay indoors when its friggin cold! Funny how we are in different parts of the world at the cusp of extremes! Stay cool love N

[@brianashton1428]

@@nadinetasmania 👋👋Yes Nadine, the water at the end looked so clear and inviting! It is indeed funny to think our weather is so different - lovely to hear from you. have you found any lovely sea glass recently! I'm popping off out to meet friends for coffee - sitting in the shade of course, gone are the days when I sat in the sun to get a tan, 🥰 have a great week,, 💗😁😄

[@nadinetasmania]

@@brianashton1428 Oh yes, too cold here to venture out on the coast - plus king tides which flooded parts of the coast - BUT hey...that may make for some interesting mudlarking later this week. Enjoy your coffee - Coops says hi - he was most unimpressed we got soaked doing a doggie walk with a friend on Saturday - did the trail but half way round - it POURED! Poor dogs! Lovely to catch up again - have a great week too cheers N

Mad dogs and English men go out in the midday sun

[@SamFournier]

😂😂😂 I couldn’t stop laughing at Seth admiring "the boobies🍋 🍋" he is definitely growing up. I also don’t like how crowded the beaches get, I’m definitely like you where I like to try and find a more secluded area.

[@nadinetasmania]

LOL noticed that too...I agree the 'sardines'on the shore beach exp - I avoid!

[@Frenchcountryfriends]

I’m originally from California and the stories I’m hearing from people…yikes! A real scorcher. Currently we have relief in Paris. Has the rainstorms hit your area yet? Oh oui, topless bathing is still a thing!

[@sarahparry3604]

I’m a kind of neighbour btw , lived in Tourrettes sur loup for sixteen years Love your exploring and filming on our own backyard as appreciating all over again how lucky we are to live in such a beautiful region of France 🇫🇷

🥰🇫🇷❤️💫

[@miautznala]

What a lovely vlog:) I have spent the last week in Antibes, it’s a shame I haven’t seen you there! I encountered the same problem with private beaches... but I think you have to go to the other side of the Cap. My favourite (very little though) is this one: Plage à faire goo.gl/maps/Leg1a69MVEozZcHC6 (also there is a small parking which is free from 7 or 8 pm on). Very few people come there to enjoy the sunset with a bottle of rosé and some snacks. Also, the ship at 25:10 is the biggest sailing boat in the world apparently, owned by a Russian billionaire (last year I saw it, too) :)

[@fernibops]

Thanks for this! Sounds like the perfect evening! 🥂🌅💫 Hope you enjoyed your week 💞
