You are blessed. This is what life should be. Enjoying and living. Not corporate America. Im so stressed out that I'm scared to even make a minor mistake at work. Working in a cubicle your whole life is a waste. I love watching your family

[@jessies3236]

I am the stay at home mom in my situation but lordy I know this fear.. The fear of anything coming up or happening. I today needed like 30 to 40 dollars to save one of my chickens and I was horrified. No that dont seem like a lot to some but for me it is the stuff nightmares are made of. What if it dont even work?!?! We also have to move our apartment we rent is being sold. The rent has went up so much in the years weve lived her we can not afford anywhere else. We are currently putting our stuff in storage and praying.. All we can do... Cause we dont know what else to do.. I pray for you. I pray for all the under paid over worked people not even getting by. Id say making it but thats not true. Always feel short. Always pouring from an empty cup.. Bless you all tho. I pray for better for all.

[@sharonhamilton9496]

Just become a techie guru, invent something wonderful, sell it for 24 million(?) and be brave and bold and young and super adventurous, have 3 UTTERLY AMAZING CHILDREN thanks to an AMAZINGLY BEAUTIFUL, WONDERFUL, INCREDIBLE upbringing, and you too can live out your bucket list!!!❤️🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀good luck!

I cry every time I start a new job. I keep getting fired over really dumb things I can't control. I'm very sensitive and this life is too hard. I wish I didn't have to work but not have to live under my parents as an adult.

[@ashleywilliams4593]

As a teacher it makes my heart to see kids learning like this. It’s beautiful.

[@happeningheidi]

I don’t comment much here but I have to say that I love how your videos transport me away from some of the challenges of life; I’m able to take a break just long enough to relax and recharge. Your family is amazing. And the video content is so informative while also entertaining. Thank you!

[@HollyShuster]

Cali's "Imagine me, you, and those (Manilla). We can fight them" has to be a cartoon episode! Gee kiddos defeating poachers! It was Cali's idea......

[@koko4s328]

Im giggling 🤭

[@darlahardy3386]

In answer to Garretts question about how Jessica would answer the question of what to tell parents that would question her about why and how she would allow her children to be around situations they run into on Safari. Jessica's answer was very good but the fact is, she didn't want to sound like she was bragging. She has every right to brag about how well behaved the children are. Garrett and Jessica have taught them to respond immediately when they are out on safari, swimming with whales and sharks, surfing or any other situation that isn't just childish play with all involved. Go back and watch their videos from the very beginning and you will be AMAZED how carefully and lovingly these children have been raised so they will always be safe and grow up with respect for this earth, each other and their elders. It's just incredible.

[@mariehohmann1459]

Very well said!

[@alatsey94]

Favorite parts: 1) The walking safari to see the white rhinos. Just unbelievable, I was nearly in tears! 2) The kids’ bed head 🤣 3) The entire orphanage visit. Amazing that the gentleman was playing “Wavin Flag” as that’s a fav of mine from previous videos. And of course Manilla and his friend ❤️ 4) Cali defending himself over calling it the “mountain house.” Haha “we actually went to one!!” ** Edited to add 5) Cali in his cute lil bathrobe!!! How could I forget!?! I’m loving your Summer Semester on Safari! Such beautiful experiences you have and so thankful you share them with all of us.

[@pennyg777]

❤❤❤ I love Africa, God's Amazing animal's, as well as Awesome people, of all walks of God's creation ❣ I watch WildEarth channel daily, while on their Sunrise & Sunset Safari drives, in Djuma SA & their other affiliate nature reserves🥰

[@jillsmith6854]

Your family is the BEST thing on the internet. Hands down. Every adventure brings a smile and tears at the same time. I love how you raise your children. They are wonderful humans like their parents. I enjoy your realness. Something you don't see these days. Thank you for bringing so much joy to everyone's lives.

[@SkertieG]

Top Bucket List Family video ever!!! The simple, extraordinary moments had me laughing and crying. From the polar plunge, to the incredible bond of Dorothy, Manilla, and Calihan to the sweet request of Cali wanting another day of play with “dat gurl” and the amazing moments in between. Thank you for sharing your family and your light with the world.

[@AverytheCubanAmerican]

The pangolin is not only one of, if not THE most adorable creatures on the planet...it's also unfortunately the most poached. Their scales are prized for medicine and their meat is a high-end delicacy in Asia. There are eight Pangolin species on the planet in Asia and Africa, and all of them are threatened or endangered in some way. Thankfully, Zimbabwe has one of the strictest laws against pangolin poaching in Africa. Protected under the country's Parks and Wildlife Act. Poaching pangolins can land you nine years behind bars. Working together with the government, tribal leaders are teaching the locals about age-old myths and beliefs about them, reminding them that is the people's duty to protect them as much as possible. So kudos to Zimbabwe on their tough stance. Other pangolin-native countries should follow

[@virgiediaz2086]

The pangolin in Palawan are bear extinction bec of smuggling.some locals don't care our wildlife here.i feel so sad the future generation will not be able to saw them.

[@lethiapage4767]

Looks and seems by description to be a lot like an armadillo.

[@anamoreno5557]

Cali wanting to form an anti poaching squad is ✨

[@divyamohanankk]

He is so brave and empathetic

[@PamelaStJohn]

Dorothy: Don't you think he's a little rhinoceros? Cali: I'm not! You hear that guys?! I'm not a rhinoceros. CUTEST EVERRRRR!

[@sssshhhdontsayaword6746]

I love how Cali can talk so well at this age!

[@alatsey94]

Cali is going to single-handedly take down the poachers and I am HERE FOR IT. 💪 Battle cry in 3, 2, 1….”AGHHH!!” 🙅🏼‍♂️

[@dianacabarcas2786]

Honestly this family shows way more than just the places they travel to. They try to understand and really get into the community, wanting what is best for them and helping as much as they can. I feel like this video was so so special and seeing how the kids have all grown up and being able to make friends from other countries is so special. It just shows how much respect they have for other people and it doesn't matter their origins or their color skin, or anything, they are all the same and I loved watching them interact with them, it was so so special and the songs of this video was just perfect

[@dianatoews171]

You all make the world a more beautiful place. This is just so heart warming to see. Thank you for showing us this beautiful side of the world.

[@randomjustrandom1509]

I lived in Zimbabwe from when I was 1 and then I moved back to England when I was 8 (I’m now 15) my family is from Zimbabwe and the 7 years I lived there I lived with my grandparents. We come from a place called Marondera. I’m so glad you guys can see what a beautiful country it is. It’s my home. And I’m so grateful that other people can what a beautiful country it is from your videos❤️ 🇿🇼🇿🇼🇿🇼

[@gabrielacan150]

I love how Jess moves away from the snake BUT the kids all move closer!! Those are some brave kids.

[@TheIslandLifeofUs]

So many precious moments in this vid!!! When Dorothy calls Cali a rhino and then cuddles him 🤗 my gosh!! They way Manilla interacts with the little girl at the orphanage and how he looks up to the "big boys" he he it is so sweet!!! The kids have such wonderful spirit. These safari videos have us planning a trip.... we can't wait to explore Africa one day! Thanks for the inspiration as always 😊 xx

[@Jadyn_Sage]

I love how Cali goes, just out of nowhere "I saw an impala!" What other 3 year old could recognize an impala on sight‽

[@bettinaintheclouds]

Oh my heart. These videos on your summer semester on safari will be one of my favorites! Not only because of the wild life, mostly because it feels like you as a family came so close together during this time and that we get to know you even better. At least that's how it feels. ❤️ Thank you for inspiring, as always.

[@alatsey94]

I so agree!! 🥰

[@bettinaintheclouds]

@@alatsey94 Glad you feel the same! 😊

[@jenniferbechtel4801]

The end of this video was beautiful. Brought tears to my eyes. Thank you Bucket List Family for sharing these special moments with us.

I cried watching this. My 11 year old follow this family and he screamed at me and said mom, they went to Zimbabwe. What a beautiful vlog. The Beautiful side of my Homeland !!!

aww Manila looks like hes had such a breakthrough this summer with his confidence!! So nice to see him go off on his own and show love to the girl there :)

[@brinamarie9525]

I had to rewatch the beginning when the kids were sliding on the floor. That looks so fun.

[@hillarylopes7557]

Watching your awesome video makes me so homesick. Once you experience Africa it fills your heart and it never leaves. Your children are so entertaining, love them . You are truly giving them the best experiences that are priceless.

[@annapotea4987]

Cali is improving. Loud and clear "Good morning from Zimbabwe!"

Why did the rhino break his phone? The instructions told him to charge it!

I haven't seen that paddle catch game in years! I used to play it when I was little and for some nostalgic reason I've been wishing I had a set now.
