WHY ARE WE IN ENGLAND?

[@janicegartner5711]

Loved this video …we were posted to England( Cotswold area) for a year and I fell in love with it…did horse back riding down Puddleduck lane , cream teas …beautiful countryside and we had the best weather they had experienced in 100 years…cried when I left. Have a wonderful trip!

[@mkk1959]

When Andrew said "All of her family really, really loved her. They thought of her as a genius, you could tell". Then, you say, "Which is more important anyway....". A beautiful moment right there ❤

[@JustFollowHim]

Yes ❤️

[@elizabethclark8374]

Hi Knorpps, Having been an English and Spanish teacher for 33 years, Jane is one of my favorite authors!! Thanks for taking us along on your trip!! Elizabeth in Texas

Precious 😢

[@melissawheeler647]

We lived in Hertfordshire for the years and are now visiting after two years away. We love it here! Everything looks so picturesque and lovely. We love all the public footpaths as well. *Sigh*

[@EmilyBoltz]

I’m not proud - yes I had tears throughout this video- I’m such an Anglophile. Thank you Andrew for picking England and what a jam packed day! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@Mrsmadison45]

Oh the homes are gorgeous and adorable ❤

[@meiraloraduncan8953]

If I remember correctly the place you ate in at Oxford was what the original great hall in the Harry Potter series was used during some filming before they created it in the studio buildings. They used a number of places at Oxford to film and create the different areas of Hogwarts.

[@chrissie4885]

This didn't show up in my videos until 4 days later. I love England even though I've never been. My belated Nana loved Jane Austin. Thankyou for taking us along on your trip. Hope you had fun Andrew!

[@sopjoplop23]

Not surprised at all that Andrew would want to go to England!

[@egmora4491]

Andrew, our family 1st fell in love with you when your mom made the month of pies. We looked forward how you expressed how the texture and taste of the pies were. We think you are very astute for we know for sure that you will make the best of everything you touch a success. Stay as kind and beautiful as your loving parents brought you up. Enjoy yourself in Africa. Much love from Texas

[@lindajwilson9848]

❤ from Arizona USA!

[@sky02148]

I love that you take your children on senior trips, rather than sending them on a trip, they get to experience it with y'all. That's beautiful. Thanks for sharing and as always stay safe, safe travels, and God bless love ya Nancy

[@Morgana0x]

It was so nice to see a young man that appreciates Jane Austen. He has good taste!

[@flamingogirl57]

Oh I wish I could like this a million times ! I loved this video so much. Seeing places I always dreamed of going but never being able to. Now I'm old and broken... so I travel virtually!! Thank you so much for this beautiful video !! Enjoy !!

[@karendutton3344]

Jane Austen’s home isn’t far from where I grew up and I didn’t even know! It looks amazing. And what a treat to be shown round Oxford University! Enjoy England. It’s an amazing place with wonderful people and incredible history. Love that you guys love it there! It’s great to see the place through fresh eyes! 🇬🇧🇬🇧

[@marjielalonde3875]

You`ll maybe think I`m crazy, but I was so choked up watching Andrew`s reactions, what an absolutely wonderful tailor-made trip for him! Also, being able to dine in Balliol college at Oxford is pretty special! This is my favourite of the graduation trips you`ve done! So happy for him to be able to do this, you`re amazing parents!

[@lola-littleoldladyadventur5353]

Oh thank you so much for taking us with you! What a magical trip already. I love Jane Austen. Being able to see the things she saw. The home where she wrote. And then Oxford! I can't wait to see more of jolly old England.

[@lindajwilson9848]

[@felicitybarclay475]

I smiled the whole way through this video, it was just delightful. I hope to visit these amazing places some day😊

[@sandrakelbaugh1681]

I would love to live in a little cottage in a small village in the English countryside....

[@margaretfrosst575]

This is your first day and look at all you have experienced.Looks like the making of an unforgettable adventure.Thanks for taking us along.

[@dianechurch7953]

It’s so nice to see things that we Brits take for granted through your eyes, I’ve never visited the area but might do 1 day

[@aliciacassio4215]

Dining at Oxford felt like such a Harry Potter moment.

[@gladysanderson1351]

very beautiful...the house, grounds, and then to eat at Oxford. So special to see friends there, as well!

[@lindajwilson9848]

Best video!! This is how I always pictured England and so was enthralled and satisfied that it really does exist! Thank you for the little tour of your first day of Andrew's senior trip--what a joy!

[@mshockey73]

Thank you for taking us along. England is beautiful. Have the best time guys!!

[@JohnMoran-g5e]

So good to have you enjoying your vacation in my country. Thank you so much, I watched all of your films, and most of the places I have yet to see. Good job!

[@wywk]

I hope Andrew has an amazing and unforgettable trip. England is so full of amazing history, I've been there so many times and love it. Safe travels!

[@helendukes2638]

Ooh you’re not too far from me. I love your channel. I think the time you spend with each of your children is wonderful ❤

[@stephaniemccollum8019]

Thank you for taking us to England with you! Absolutely beautiful. Just as rainy as I expected. Such an awesome treat! Thumbs up!

[@sunnygal57]

I’m in awe of the beauty that surrounds you in this video. The location where the lambs were was breathtaking with the church in the background! Be still my heart! ❤

[@kimrichards5576]

I remember when your family lived in England for those many months and so glad to see that Andrew wanted to go back. I dont blame him at all. England is absolutely beautiful. The buildings structures are very beautiful and the history that comes with them. Only if walls could talk. Mike and Megan, thank you for taking us along on Andrew's adventure with you. God Bless and most of all, have a great trip Andrew.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@mmmmlllljohn]

Thank you for sharing the leg of your trip! What a beautiful place in which Jane grew up and wrote her novels. Hope you have a wonderful holiday. Love from Canada ❤️🇨🇦

[@MinnieTx1951]

So peaceful and clean ! What an amazing adventure

[@abbottone]

Great to see you in my country, hope you guys had an awesome stay

[@janinedoller9610]

Good practice driving on the left hand side for when Andrew comes to South Africa! 😄

[@celiarangitsch3117]

Oh MY GOSH!!! I know the Barclays too!! We all were on BYU-I’s British Literary Tour at the same time, and I went with them one day to find the Peter Pan Sculpture in Kensington Gardens during it! They are such great people!! Totally makes my day to see all of you guys in this video!!!

[@jackieaudus9829]

I love old old villages, all the quaint old stone cottages, Churches and village life, there are thousands of these in the UK, I do feel very lucky to live here… enjoy your visit .. think the weather (for a change) has been playing nice this past week

[@gracel3320]

What a beautiful video, I felt I was there with you! Enjoy, such a special time!

[@willowgirl2635]

Absolutely breathtaking to walk the same places Jane walked beautiful.

[@reemnahdy]

It's nice to see that both got a break and were able to relax a bit, but I honestly can't wait for the home renovation videos to start again. I live in the UK and was really hoping that I would maybe bump into you, sadly I was looking in the wrong places. I love seeing the progress of the house and get so excited to get a notification. I remember when the house was first brought and to see how much it's changed is so beautiful. I wish you all the best and can't wait for your next video.

[@jules092265]

Love this trip. I did the exact trip with my mother twice. We traveled all over the uk to wherever a jane austen movie was filmed.

[@jennielauber8308]

The opening was hilarious. We went to England when I was about 12 to pick up one of my older brothers from his mission. Before we picked him up, my dad drove and scraped the stuffed of the car when the bushes🤣🤣🤣🤣. So glad when my brother took over. I love Jane Austen as well. I need to go back to England as an adult. Is appreciate it more

[@georgie1410]

I was born and lived in Hampshire, England growing up and now I live not far away in North Dorset. Hope you had a wonderful trip 🥰🥰

[@IS-LUV]

Omg!!! What a treat!! I ADORE Jane Austen! Have been in love with her since I was in elementary school and I ended up getting my college degree in English, partly due to my admiration of her! Thanks for sharing the trip ❤❤❤❤

[@hollyshope5814]

What an awesome trip! I am traveling the world vicariously through you as I will probably never have the chance to do that on my own, so thank you for taking us along!!❤

[@helenparker4686]

Have followed you guys for years and it's so much fun seeing you explore England as a Brit. Like seeing this through fresh eyes. What a great start for locations! Can't wait for the next installment. Thanks.

[@TheLadyPrefers2Save]

Thank you for this. My father died several months before my high school graduation-we were suppose to go. I couldn’t bear to go without him. Thank you.

[@KnorppandSouth11]

That’s heartbreaking!

[@dianadee9757]

I can’t believe Andrew is leaving too!! I’m going to cry when he leaves. He seems like one of the littler ones. Btw, Your hair looks gorgeous Meghan!!!

[@SonjaHanson1]

This looks like the beginning of an incredible trip! I always love following along on your family’s adventures 💜

[@greenwillow5404]

This was such a wonderful video! Andrew, I am in love with Jane Austen too. "Persuasion" is my favorite novel and the movie version with Amanda Root is my favorite movie of all time. Was so excited to see her house and the neighboring church. I have never been. How lucky you all were to eat at the dining hall at Balliol. Thank you so much for taking us along. Very excited to see the next video.

[@marksip01234]

One of my cycle club pals lives in the house next door to Jane's. Her brother Knightly I think , lived in the mansion opposite, which us owned by an American lady and houses the largest feminine library in Europe I am told. I live in a town 8 miles away , New Alresord built 18th century, hence the new

[@sarapanzarella97]

Have to say - I am loving your current hairstyle - looks so good on you! Kudos to Mike for having the courage to drive in the UK- my husband is a pilot and flies internationally a lot and pretty much refuses to try it - says it’s too ingrained in his head to drive on the wrong side

[@manianavkar474]

Thanks for taking us to a wonderful tour to Jane Austin's village and house. My daughter is also the fan of Jane Austen and has read almost all her books..the scenic beauty of village, the peacefulness and serenity almost wants us to get out of this hectic city life and stay there😃wonderful choice Andrew❤

[@ArrowHillCottage]

I love the glimpses of all these beautiful places - and how wonderful it is that you take these special trips with each of your children!

[@kimmberlie573]

What wonderful memories you are making.

[@librarynan4610]

Looks like the start of a fun trip. Mike needs a trip when he is finished with the house, but only to sleep.

[@kimrichards5576]

I totally agree. Mike needs a very long get away vacation once the house is done. He well deserves it just as Megan will need it too. Love this family. ❤

[@rosegarcia5069]

Hey they can sleep in their new room...ha ha❤

[@lisamargaret6751]

I love it when you go to England!!! This Trip is more than enchanting! The reason why you came here is so incredible that your son Andrew loves Jane Austen !! England is so picturesque maybe all of England is so picturesque! Megan, I have to tell you how England becomes you! You always look so radiant, Megan, you are a Jane Austen novel !!🌷🎀🌺🥰🎉🎊🎈💐🦋🙌🌸💫❤️

[@lisamargaret6751]

OK I already left a comment, but let me boast on what a fine charming young man Andrew is ! He is handsome like his father and as charming as you both are ,,you have done a great job, Mike and Megan!!🎉🎊❤️

[@marfarnworth]

I can’t believe you guys were in Oxford!! I live 30mins away in the Cotswolds… wondering if the next few days of videos shows you coming my way!!

[@margaretbedwell3211]

Thank you so much for this trip. I started with the Cotswold video and this one came up next, which is fine. Another beautiful place and what a gorgeous dining hall. Mike, you need to find a lamp for y'alls dining table...Meghan would love that. Have a Blessed day.

[@Trin1974]

My daughter also loves Jane Austin. We really enjoyed watching this video. She wants to go and visit England now also. We may need to make a trip after she’s finished with her first year of BYU Pathway. 🥰

[@donnathomson_au]

Makes me want to read Jane Austin's novels!

[@llorylloyd]

Correction we don't need a break you guys do; especially Mike. Yet you still haven't rested. I get totally goofy as well when I'm exhausted. The home and grounds were beautiful. The first church was beautiful but that ceiling. WOW impressive. What a great senior trip so far.

[@rhondaplait9236]

That was exceptional on so many levels. ❤Thank you ❤
