[@SilverBearwalker]

Thanks so much Janine and Liam for taking me to places I will never go. I planned to travel when I retired but health got in the way and I’m now rather disabled and unable to travel. Your videos really help me, I’m prone to depression - well will be as I’m bipolar- but all these places you go to make me feel a part of it. Thank you so much. Many many blessings. 🌹

[@terrynewey5313]

I'm in a similar situation with arthritis in knees and hip..can just about get dressed in the morning..

[@jilllangman9343]

@@SilverBearwalker lm reduced to vicarious travel too. Medication for my heart has rendered me an invalid and l really miss travel. You are not alone friend.

What's happened to the Sunday morning vlog ? Not been here for 2 weeks.

[@TheMinimalistTherapist]

This video was an editorial TRIUMPH. Cinematic for all 5 senses. ❤

[@carolineorourke7468]

Love you guys so much, I am Irish and live in Verona with my Roman husband and we have two beautiful kids.i love Liam's pronunciation which was like mine when I first came to Italy, ask Google for the pronunciation,just a thought.if you both loved Sorrento then you have to go to Calabria to diamante where you can park on the beach.i know Italy and Sicily so well as we have a small camper and have travelled extensively throughout this amazing country so I can give so many tips for future travel.well done to both of you for following the Bella figura🎉

[@italogiardina8183]

A cast iron griddle pan also known as the Dutch oven is ever so handy for micro camping because of high-quality three layer enamel coating that distributes and retains heat evenly and suitable for use on all stovetops.

[@ThoseHappyDays]

@@italogiardina8183 I 100% agree with you

[@chai5381]

Italy has everything, lakes, islands of all sizes, mountains, rocky beaches, sandy beaches, 4 seas, So glad you can enjoy it. Love from Liguria.

[@ilovebillyjoel]

We went to sorrento for our honeymoon 10 years ago this year. Such a beautiful place. Thanks for sharing this vlog 👍💚🌱🌞

[@ThoseHappyDays]

Our pleasure 🙏

[@chriscarter29]

This video brings back so many memories for me and my wife.. we stayed in Sorrento and went to the Amalfi coast, also went up vesuvius for our honeymoon ♥️♥️

[@ThoseHappyDays]

Sounds like happy memories?

[@chriscarter29]

Yes, amazing memories.. eating plant based was tricky at times, but the Amalfi, ravello, Positano were highlights. Hope you both enjoyed it as much as we did

[@VMS-g1j]

Cappuccino coffee is called after Capuchin friars because the coffee and frothy milk looked like their robes and belt…🙏🙏☕️☕️

[@triciabuckling3385]

Went to Sorrento years ago when I was 14 in 1973,I loved it and went along the Amalfi coast road it was scary! Also went up Mount Vesuvius and also to Pompei then the Blue Grotto and Capri it was a holiday school trip and I am so glad my parents let me go there,lovely to see the area again😊

[@lorraineselby]

Wow. What an episode. I felt like I was there with you.Cappuccino is named after the Capuchin friars, as it looks like their habits. Padre Pio is a very famous Capuchin friar. Beautiful views and amazing pizza. How big were those lemons! I’ve been to Rome, but there are lots of Italian towns and cities that I would love to visit . Ooh Vegan Limoncello 😋 Thanks for sharing. Stay safe and happy travels xx

[@geraldreynolds9650]

This trip is certainly doing good for Janine.Look how radiant shes looking and such nice complexion also.

[@paiviilves2136]

We've been to the same campsite in Sorrento - it was amazing! We took a boat from Sorrento to Positano and also to Capri and recommend it.

[@pamelawatson2366]

Yeah!! I switched off David Attenborough when your notification came up! That's how much I love you both ❤❤ .( Still waiting for the Amalfi Coast- one of my bucket list items. )

[@ThoseHappyDays]

You're the best!

[@rachaelchappell317]

I've been to Sorrento playing spot the places I've been. I went up Versuvius, to Pompeii and Herculaneum. It's incredibly beautiful. The roads are crazy though, I'm glad I never had to drive on them.

[@BrendaSmyth-i9o]

I loved this video, ur adventures are getting more exciting every week, I get to go on ur journey with u since I'm never gonna get there myself n that's why I luv ur videos so much, good luck, good health n happiness to u both, take care❤❤❤❤

[@ThoseHappyDays]

We love having you join us each week

[@josimpson7999]

What a beautiful place and with all that fabulous food. Love their civilised attitude to dining, coffee custom, and dress code. I share your love of ceramics Janine - I bought some beautiful pieces when I was in Tuscany. How did you manage to resist? I would have failed miserably - even given the lack of space. Travel safe 😊

[@ThoseHappyDays]

Haha you got it, lack of space

[@iandfleming470]

Been following your trip right from before you decided to auction Morgan. It’s become a Sunday tradition! But this one was so brilliant as we spent our honeymoon in Sorrento 2003. Haven’t been back yet, but will after this. Love your energy, honesty and sweet personality driven films. Inspiring.

[@ThoseHappyDays]

What a great choice for a honeymoon

[@jasmine-oliviarose1908]

You two seem so much happier ❤🎉 wonderful journey, enjoy xxx

Wow what a great campsite! Love Sorrento, and Capri is beautiful, I would always recommend going there too! Enjoy the rest of your adventures there, stay safe on those tiny roads!! ☀️🏖☕️

[@catherineshaw3197]

Loved seeing Sorrento again in your video. It brought back fond memories. Enjoyed the Amalfi coast including Positano and Capri and a visit to Pompeii years ago. Glad you had a great time exploring the area.

[@marktaylor9678]

This place is definately on my travel list....looks amazing

[@ThoseHappyDays]

You should!

I’ve followed you for a long time now but this is the best place and video you have made amazing sorrento

[@ThoseHappyDays]

Wow, thank you!

[@nooshiewest8738]

Great video guys! Cappuccino isn't named after a person! It's named after the colour of the robes worn by Capuchin monks. Capuchin monkeys are also named after said monks! Such a glorious place!

[@vulgarresponse7080]

So it's not named after 'Capuchin Monkeys?

[@nooshiewest8738]

@@vulgarresponse7080 No. Capuchin monkeys are also named after the order of monks because their brown fur and white heads looked similar to the robes of Capuchin monks! I only know all this because I used to sing in an acapella group called "Cappuccino" and I looked up the derivation of the name.

[@sophiemarcaurele]

It actually all starts with the brown hooded robes themselves, called cappuccio. These Franciscan friars are named after their robes, the coffee after its color, and the monkeys... because the fur on their heads looks like the traditional half shaved hairdo sported by the friars. 🤔🐵 ☕

[@beverleebusch4161]

Sorrento--definitely one of my favourite videos ever, you two!! ☮🕊

[@ThoseHappyDays]

Yay! Thank you!

Thanks so much ❤️💃

Wow the kayaking at the end had my palms sweating hahaha ❤❤❤❤

[@ThoseHappyDays]

So much fun

[@meanqueensuperscrimper8908]

Love this video, brings back memories. I went to Sorrento with Traveleyes. It's a company that organises holidays for blind and partially sighted people. The sighted travellers are paired up with those who cannot see, and they act as guides. It was a lot of fun. We had a coach to ferry us around so someone else did the driving. And we went on the boat to Capri. You sound as excited as I was. It is a lovely place. 🍋🍋🍋 ilona

[@ThoseHappyDays]

@@meanqueensuperscrimper8908 That sounds amazing, what a great idea. So pleased you had a great time 🩷

[@RoGorell]

Loved this, smiled all the way through. I look forward to your videos every week. Sorrento was our honeymoon destination 30 years ago. We fell in love with it so it was wonderful to see it again through your experiences. Thank you from down under, but originally from the midlands 😉

[@ThoseHappyDays]

That is awesome! Thanks so much

[@marinakaplais]

Wow, Sorrento is stunningly beautiful and what an amazing camp site. I'm seeing so many parts of the world from your down to earth perspective, which I love.

[@ThoseHappyDays]

Haha hope you find some! I might try replicate it at some point with everyday herbs and spices we find in the UK

This was definitely worth the wait today! Another beautiful vlog! Well done Jeanine on getting in the sea! Also Liam jumping from the rocks...scary stuff! Good advice about the rules, customs etc over there! This was such a treat to watch! Thanks for sharing 👌🤗Hope everything goes well! 😊🙏🍀❤️❤️❤️

So pleased you liked it 💗

[@forestcottage7321]

Hi Liam and Janine, Thank you for a great video, I really loved how you showed us a more intimate views of the streets, shops, buildings etc. I would love to go to Italy, just love the culture and food and people, but sadly don't think I will get there., so thank you so much! Looking forward to next week!

[@mauk2861]

Brings back some great memories for us. Hopefully yo will get to see Pompeii or Herculaneum.... each is a whole day trip though!

[@susancutts9275]

Have been to Sorrento and the Amalfi coast and it was amazing, been one of the only places we never hired a car and went on organised coach trips instead, best decision we made, have you noticed all the bashed a dented cars? On your drone shot in the first few minutes of your video the small little harbour in front of you was one of our favourite places to sit, one day we watched a guy do a three point turn on the little jetty, unfortunately he didn’t quite make it and backed off the edge and into the sea, he escaped unhurt but the fascinating thing was watching the fire truck retrieving his car and then also having to get off the jetty, spent a few hours watching this hilarious fiasco, but no one was hurt which was the main thing 😂.

[@ThoseHappyDays]

@susancutts9275 that sounds like a proper Italian scene 😳

[@kathbeech]

Looks so beautiful, well done Janine for getting in the water 😊

[@ThoseHappyDays]

[@ThoseHappyDays]

Thank you 🍋 💗

[@lisabatty4734]

We stayed at that campsite in a hired campervan travelling from Australia. You didn’t show the scary driveway to get in. Still a fantastic campground though and such a lovely walk to the town. Unfortunately, we were there in September and the weather decided to turn - we spent much of our time hiding out in our van from the pouring rain and the boat trip we had splurged on to Capri and the Amalfi coast was cancelled. I wonder if we will ever get back there?

[@ThoseHappyDays]

We did film the switchback to get in but I think janine might have cut it. But you are right that it's super dodgy

[@Jeditilt]

Awesome vlog, as usual. Thanks you two!

Who told you cappuccinos were named after a guy called Cappucin? They were having you on, I think. It comes from the colour of the Capuchin monks' robes, and the monks' name in turn came from the Italian word for the hood that they wore - the cappuccio.

[@sheilagarrido8204]

This is correct! When we were in Italy my little daughter was given a CAPELINO (LITTLE HAT) as a gift from the locals.
