As a Brit who lives in London, I LOVE that you have put ‘50 quid’ instead of ‘pounds’ for the prices! Very British of you hahah. Glad you had a good time here 😁 💕

[@sharronoreilly7106]

Hahaha made me giggle every time each quid came up!

[@lorihutton4719]

Your eyes and that blue hat. Buy more of that color. Thanks for sharing the food,markets, antiques lots of goodies. Beautiful place. It was so nice seeing the positivity but with you, Always! Take care until next time You ladies just look amazing.

[@lovelyday1788]

A dream vacation!! Thrifting and delicious food! 💕

[@CountieLt25]

Also I Went to Westminster with my niece! I was 26 and she was 15! Such great memories!!! Thanks and Happy Birthday!!!

[@rachelsaelid6081]

That's so cool that you got to see Darwin's grave. I definitely would have cried too.

[@janetbreckon8211]

Oh fir youth and stamina once again. I love what you are covering, I can at least enjoy through your eyes and emotion. What a wonderful trip.

[@velvetindigonight]

Loved this and I'm a Londoner........... So glad you all had a great day. Thanks for sharing. Enjoy

[@kathleenwestfall5140]

WOW!!!!! Thanks for taking your KZbin family along for this amazing trip. I don't think you realize how many people you help by allowing us to live our dreams through you. Thanks ever so much 😘😘😘😘💖💖 Looking forward to the rest of "our" European trip. Hugs & blessings from Texas 🦋🦋💖💖

[@sarjean]

I find escalators terrifying so I probably would’ve been making everyone laugh 😂

[@janetseager4069]

No matter how wonderful London is, and it is. It is the fact that you are so full of joy that makes this little glimpse so compelling. Thanks for taking us along

[@darcylowe5292]

So happy you are having a wonderful time in London. It's my birth place so I am biased but I do love it so. That vase you picked up was made in Rye, East Sussex, where I live now. They are collectable pieces, and live in the Iden Pottery house where a lot of the pottery was made, its no longer in business but I often find pieces of Iden Pottery in antique and charity shops which I always snap up. Wishing you safe and happy travels and lots of wonderful bargains! xx

[@joytoyouandme4593]

Oh my that sounds so wonderful. I hope to visit England one day and make the rounds to the thrift and charity shops. I just recently discovered a whole lineage of ancestry from the U.K., English, Irish and Scottish. Deighton is named after my family, which I’ve traced back to my 22nd G grandfather in the 1200’s. Planning to spend a month or so exploring the history of family as well as shopping. So exciting. Looks like Laura had a wonderful time...

[@hippygram]

Wow! 30 days, a true trip to remember. Enjoy every moment.

[@emilyalvarez9078]

I just celebrated my 45th birthday! Life is so much easier this side of 40. Welcome to the club!

[@hopealdridge1134]

Laura, FANTASTIC Video.....Thank You so much for taking us along on your vacation.....I can't wait for more...this has been so much Fun !! 😺

[@malinmaskros]

Those little kitties are rests for butter knives! The dachshunds are the most common ones, so in Sweden we basically call all of these butter knife rests "butter dachshunds", no matter if they are dachshunds or not! ^_^

[@marymiller7785]

It makes me so happy to watch you here. I love your relationship with your nieces. It’s fabulous for sure. Don’t miss the Crown Jewels!! The best to you all. !

[@queens6583]

I loved my visit to London many years ago when my mother-in-law treated me and my sister-in-law to a week in London. Best trip ever! I remember visiting Westminster and thinking that I was walking on the actual ancient stones that Kings and Queens stepped on. The Tower of London was like that too and the rooms were so small in relative to what I imagined. Also, the place where beheadings took place was just a small wood block in front of the Queen's residences at the Tower and not this big scaffolding like depicted in movies. You'll love Windsor castle and the town of Windsor. I loved the cobblestone alleyways and the gargoyles you see on buildings all over London. I hope your visiting Germany,(which is where I was born )and visit the Black Forest. Heidelberg is beautiful and you'd love the Castle.

[@monalingan9523]

Thank you, thank you, thank you, for sharing your trip to London with us.

[@emilymalcolm87]

Love london, theres no place like it. Me and my daughter visit every year and we never get tired of this amazing city. Have fun on your travels.

[@ryders_mom]

I have always wanted to mudlark on the foreshore of the River Thames. The thought of possibly finding remnants of Roman pottery or a Roman coin, an old clay pipe or a piece of victorian jewelry intrigues me. If I were ever to visit London, I'd be down in the mud every day!!

[@leftcoastrevivals]

I tried to make it happen but I would have bene on my own 😂😂😂 I hope you get to do it!!

[@terrychristian2210]

The camera work is fabulous! I have never been to London and I feel like I am right there with you. Thank you for taking me along.

[@stacyt_blue]

What a fabulous beginning to your adventure, Laura. I think the brass kitties were knife rests. Loved the wooden hand you passed up... so elegant. Can't wait to see what is to come. xx

[@ltwinkiec3172]

Oh Laura Girlie🤗how wonderful for you to experience this trip together, I’ve noticed that most of my favorite vloggers are very family oriented , you are a wonderful Auntie, my daughter was Nanny to our grandsons and as she traveled and lived overseas for six years, she always sent them packages, notes, postcards and FaceTimed to stay connected to them throughout, they are still too young to travel but that is a plan for someday to do this with her, thankful she’s back here in the states as of now so we all look forward to that someday, be safe and enjoy it all🙋🏻‍♀️💕💕💕💕💕

[@joansmith9658]

Thanks for sharing your trip so far; just awesome

[@suejames6808]

Great that you and the family are starting your European ‘Tour’ in our Capital City 👍👏👏… You all have excitement ‘overload’….with very good reason…. Great choices of places you visited… particularly the antique/flea markets…. AND the food markets too….It must be so hard not to buy ‘tons’ of goodies..there…. So very well done…all of you!!!🤣🤣🤣…. Love the silver jewellery…. Also the prices in ‘Quids’… proper English!!… love it 👏👏…It was particularly touching when you visited Westminster Abbey…crying is no shame at all…It is such an awe-inspiring place…you would indeed be ‘messed up’ if you weren’t affected by …as your nieces rightly said!!!…. They are lovely young ladies…and what a wonderful and unforgettable holiday for them… and a promise fulfilled by a very thoughtful Aunt👏👏…. Will be eagerly watching every new country you visit….I’m sure you will be fascinated by all of them and their differences… not forgetting more ‘treasures’…to find in each of their antique centres and markets!!!…. Sage journey to the next adventure Everyone👋👋👋…,from Sue( in Birmingham, England)🇬🇧🇬🇧🫖☕️🥂

[@annettelewis9539]

Thank you for appreciating and enjoying our wonderful city. You’ve packed such a lot into a short time and I loved seeing your excitement and enthusiasm. Hubster and I will be in Portland in October and I can’t wait to hit the thrift shops and antique stores.

[@LadyKVlog]

Best video ever! Laura you did an amazing job capturing beautiful London. I enjoy all of your videos but this was especially special. Thank you for bringing us along with you.

[@leftcoastrevivals]

So happy you’re joining us on this adventure! ❤️❤️

[@frandutton24]

I cried when I saw Mary Queen of Scott’s tomb. Someone had put fresh heather in her hands and another left a thistle.

[@ellenrawls7557]

Looks like everyone is having a great time,. You are very fortunate to go on such a wonderful trip with loved ones. Cant wait to see more. Thanks for taking us along.

[@lisahawes5329]

Not sure if you have left the UK but if you’re still there I strongly recommend visiting a tiny village about 40 min drive from London, TURVILLE in the Hambleden Valley, nr Henley on Thames. So many films and tv series were/are filmed there and you will really see what people in the UK spend time going to visit. It’s just breathtaking and so much history.. Enjoy your travels xx

[@violagirl6132]

Welcome to the UK! Funny seeing you in London. Yes, London is the busiest city ever. Enjoy. Up in Angel there are some antique shops, and of course Camden market is very famous. Of course you're probably home now!!

[@MyMiaArabella]

Beautiful video! What an awesome first day! You really packed a lot in. Can’t wait to see some more. Just remember to pace yourself and take the time to just breathe and take it all in!

[@totallytania7978]

Those necklaces!!!!😳😍😍😍

[@phylliscloak6082]

Great video ! Thanks for taking us along.

[@pollybrand3204]

I’m so so glad you finally got to see some of the places you’d been hoping to for so long! I love your positive attitude as always and seeing somewhere so familiar to me through a new perspective is so much fun ☺️ I’m from Cambridge (a little under an hour north of London) which is steeped in its own history. If you are looking for more places to visit on your next trip you may enjoy Cambridge and ofc if you need a tour guide I’d be more than willing to show you the sights!😉 Can’t wait to see more of your European adventures with your beautiful family. I hope the sun continues to shine for you and you make even more unforgettable memories ☺️ ☀️ 💙

[@lustrouscyan]

I cannot believe you are over 40, I have been watching all your videos on their channel and had you pegged at 32ish. I think your wonderful attitude and outlook is ageless!

[@nogginsvintageandretro9683]

Hi Briglin potteries were London based, set up in the 1940s, they made a whole range of products including fantastic goblets and mugs x

[@tammieparrishmiller3669]

First, I'm going to say that your husband is so handsome! That's the first time I've seen him. I am so in love with the UK and it's my dream to go there. So much rich history that we just don't have here. I'm hoping you will take a relaxing couple of days on a narrowboat on the canals. They only go 4 m.p.h.! You could all sleep aboard one and I guarantee you'll love the bridges and locks from the waterways. It's a whole other world. I had no idea there would be so much in the way of flea markets! What a treat! You ladies after West Minster Abby were so touched that I almost wanted to cry! Such a fantastic first 2 days! Thank you sooooo much!

[@Lomie32]

OMG Laura, I waited until I was uninterrupted to watch this! I lived in London for 25 years until 3 years ago and seeing it through a visitors eyes makes me miss it sooo much! As you love cheese and wine, If you get chance, try and visit Gordon’s wine bar on Villers street near Charing Cross tube for cheese and wine, it gets very busy so early is good. Can’t wait to see more of your trip.

[@ellaaltman2137]

Loved it ALL! Thank you Laura and London!

[@gretchenmaks859]

Dear Laura- Such an amazing experience!! Luv this awesome adventure that you took us on!! Thank you for bringing us along to see all the beautiful sites & treasures!

[@conniecollins8952]

So happy that you all got to finally go and happy touring and thrifting. Stay safe!❤️❤️❤️

[@lindafaierson6030]

What a great trip to start. Thanks for sharing. Have fun, be careful.

[@sandraholeman1708]

Loved, loved, loved every moment!!! Thanks so very much for taking us along! Anxiously anticipating more, more, more !!! 😍

[@tracey6556]

I sure am enjoying my trip to London with you guys! Thank so so much for inviting us. You look gorgeous; all of you do!! I’m so excited for every single video!!! The treasures, the food, the scenery…. Just Perfect!!! ♥️

Blessed Birthday & Happy Anniversary! Such a celebration!!! ✈

[@sharonmakowsky172]

Love the video! Looking forward to more! Great job! Have fun and be safe!👍🥰💜

[@Damaged_lemons]

Also if you haven’t go to the town of Bath! It’s filled with ancient Roman bath houses.

[@jenno9028]

OMGGGGG 😍 I love this so much!! Enjoy every single second for all of us. Be safe and make memories 🥰

[@oldladylovesBruno]

WOW! What a beautiful country. I'm kind of jealous (definitely jealous). But I loved seeing it through your eyes. Can't wait to see more!

[@leanunez9469]

Laura London England is amazing, it's so old but yet beautiful, it's been a dream of mine to go to England, go to liver pool , to the cavern we're the Beatles played. Love all the things you bought. Injoy your trip.❤️✈️✈️

[@leithsapitan1428]

Very interesting. I wish I could go, so thank you for the opportunity to see these really nifty places.

[@michellepereira2328]

Great video!! If I ever get to London I’m going to the Borough market for sure.You bought some beautiful items.

[@mpatrick8673]

Aww, so happy for y'all! Love seeing some places I've been and haven't been. I cried seeing David by Michaelangelo in Italy. From photo to in-person "aaaahhhhhhhhh". So sweet you are fulfilling a promise to your nieces! Love!

[@frandutton24]

I cried when I saw David also. I always dreamed of seeing him in person , then walked Around the statue so many times admiring his magnificence and trying to imagine how Michaelangelo did that so many years ago.

[@donnaclinton991]

Yay...I've been to London through Laura! Didn't have a spot of tea though 😕 🙂

[@malikajohnson5069]

Om-goodness! I just love you Laura and fam for taking us along on your adventures! Blessings and favor over you all. Thank You 😊

[@fayemills4206]

I have always wanted to go to London. Thanks for taking me along!!! I hope that we are going to Italy!

[@janielow8719]

[@karenlane6826]

Haha quid, getting into our speak! Love how much you loved it all. So fun to watch you all experience a little bit of England.

[@pamakers8439]

Very beautiful! I'm starving..omg the food looks fabulous 🌼

[@Damaged_lemons]

My gram took me when I was 15, she was born and raised in Scotland. I wish I could go back now, 15 years later. I think it would be an entirely different experience! I totally felt that emotion when you were at Westminster. You’re a sweet soul 🥰

[@serahaupong8977]

Laura I have missed you! So happy to see this pop up today. Am even more happy to see a piece from my country Papua New Guinea. Its a bilum, carried by one of the sellers at 11.07, Safe travels to you and your family. And congrats in all the beautiful milestones being celebrated in this trip.

[@nancybump6876]

How exciting. Looks like fun. The markets and food look fabulous. My son and his wife just got back from France and they found some antique buttons from the 1870's for me. Everything is so old there. Have fun!

[@marieryan2541]

Hi Laura. Love your thriffting tour of London. The flea markets you went to I didn't even know they exsitted and I live in London. Thankyou for teaching me something new . I do agree with you about the escalators on the tube but I find going up is easier than going down at least when going up you don't see the long drop behind you.

[@jaxx8973]

Thanks for sharing, what an awesome vlog, one of the best I have seen from London. I bet it was hard to leave some of that stuff behind at the flea markets.

[@gramnenew6196]

❤ Love everything about this! Cannot wait for the next video.

[@KeriLudwig1027]

Love this Laura!!! Thank you so much for bringing us along...here from Portland

[@valwiseman5667]

had to laugh at the escalator story . when i was in primary school we had a trip to london ( i grew up in england obs lol ) and my favourite part out of all the wonders was the huge escalators :) xx

[@judyfarmer2962]

Lauren, thank you so much for letting us come along with you on this trip. My son has been to London and has a very dear friend who lives there.

[@evelynperez4129]

Be careful crossing the streets and enjoy your trip.

[@lisap3883]

Welcome to our capital. Enjoy your trip and the rest of your European adventure.

[@robynboling9833]

This is fabulous. You have mad photography and editing skills!

[@anna7118]

I was thrifting on the Oregon Coast last weekend and in an antique mall found 2 of the penguin ice buckets. Then the next day in another store in another town spotted a row of 3. Made me think of you.

[@annettegraff8323]

Always wanted to visit London ! Thank you for taking us along . Enjoy !

[@susananthonypeagram584]

I’m so pleased you have come and embraced London Laura 😊😘

[@sarahyates6055]

The little metal long length cats are Knife rests, probably turn of the Century so anything from 1900 to 1920. You put them as part of your cutlery place setting and they are to rest your knife on during a meal. You could use them for chopsticks just as easily

[@jennyjones5239]

Adorable that you use the term Quid which is an Eastend cockney slang. You have given allot of quids to our market sellers and that's amazing!! It's been a tough ride since covid and sellers have struggled badly. I hope you loved London. We loved having you xx

[@leftcoastrevivals]

Happy to help support the passion of vintage in any way I can! 😄❤️

[@rockyrose44]

At Westminster Abbey, I don't know if you saw the tomb of the Unknown Warrior, the inscription always makes me cry and I'm English. Every Royal bride since the Queen Mother (the mother of our present Queen Elizabeth) lays their wedding bouquet at the tomb.

[@AbigailsArtfulAbode]

Omg I absolutely loved this video!! It was just the best and makes me inspired to travel, to junk, to eat and well...to live it up. Needed this today, thanks Laura, can't wait for the next one

[@arlenekeith6235]

I would have never thought to find so much delicious food in London ! Thank you for taking us along on your wonderful trip ❤️

[@revelationtruth1252]

WOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!! HBD LAURA!!!!❤❤❤ Thank you for sharing!!

[@nerdmaid1240]

If you get the chance, jump on the Clipper (like a water bus) to Greenwich and go to the markets there. There are vintage markets at the weekend, and the Green Cafe is the best for brunch! It’s also a beautiful part of London. Very different to central parts.

[@heididepotter8136]

London is amasing. Been there once. Looking forward to go again in a fiew years toghether with my daughther. I m so happy you had fun XXX

[@lisahawes5329]

I love how you are using our slang ‘quid’. Adorable x

[@LindaKayHolevas]

Love the Hamsa hands! I am starting to have quite a collection of them :) This was such a fun video! It was exciting to walk around & shop with you. It had to be difficult finding so many amazing things but not being able to take them home, but at least you got to learn about some new things:) Thank you for taking the time out of your vacation to share so much with us!! Safe travels 😘
