What I really like about your videos is that you take the time and the chance to appreciate with great enthusiasm as much of the UK as you possibly can.
Oh, we love getting out and enjoying the day. Always on the go to find more things to see and appreciated here in England. We appreciate your kindness and support. Cheers 🤍 Jess x
Hello Jess, Chris and family 😊 it's the highlight of my week when I have the pleasure to sit back and enjoy your videos. If only you knew the happiness you provide, not only for me but for so many others..
Take care and best wishes. ❤ 🇺🇲🇬🇧
Oh, friend, we're so happy and love to bring happiness into your life. It's so much fun to share our love and joy with you all. Hope you have a lovely rest of your week. Happy April, friend! You take care and be safe. Cheers 🤍 Jess, Chris, Shane & Colette
I spent 15 years driving the lanes of Norfolk delivering to farms. Your videos bring many memories of those lovely narrow,twisty lanes! It's great when you're being paid to be in such beauty.
I'm glad you enjoyed it the video. We love to travel and appreciate exploring England and the entire UK. Hope you have a lovely day. Cheers 🤍 Jess & family x
Jess there are quite a few videos Of Holkham Beach when the Royal Horse Guards regiments visit for the horses annual holiday enjoying their rides along the beach and into the water.
Fab, thank you so much. I'm definitely looking them up. We appreciate your time. Cheers 🤍 Jess x
Thank you all for the joy you brought me today with your very well put together video, I really needed that today! You are a lovely family who enjoy your sightseeing, and this island is your oyster 😊
We are so glad you enjoyed the video. It is our oyster indeed. Thanks for watching and commenting. Cheers, Chris and Jess.
HI Jess&Chris and family wet one today,time for a pub lunch and warm friendly people chat
It was... We agree with the Pub lunch date! They're so lovely. We hope you have the most amazing day. Cheers 🤍 Jess & family x
Thanks for the ride! I see you are still getting your fair share of the rain over your way but things are looking up. When I watched the forecast this morning I noticed that the Norfolk/Suffolk area is due for a nice warm and sunny weekend so hope you have got something nice planned.
We're so glad you could enjoy the ride with us. We're ready for some beautiful sunny days to come. Hope you have a lovely day. Cheers 🤍 Jess x
If you want some old Victorian windows, fireplaces, arches, pillars, bricks, anything like that, just go to any reclamation yard where they will have plenty. We have reclamation yards all over the UK where you can get virtually anything from the insides of an old town hall or public building, to an old ancient home. You will find plenty in those places to take back to the States. 🥰🤠😎
Wonderful information!! Will definitely be on the loom out now. So very excited to take more of England to decorate our little farmhouse. Hope you have a lovely Thursday! We appreciate your kindness and support. Cheers 🤍 Jess & family x
You may find it listed as "Architectural Salvage"
Great explore, pity about the weather, we are all going to end up with webbed feet before long. I bet you cant wait to get back to the states to get some decent sunsine, never known this country getting so much rain in such a short period of time.
We love exploring here! We don't let the weather stop us. The weather is just the weather. Nothing will stop a good time for exploring. We appreciate your time watching. Cheers 🤍 Jess x
28:19 Nearly every village you drive through, you see some sort of monument to the fallen in WWI, which just goes to show the scale of the human cost. It really was a war where every village knew some young man who was sent to fight.
Another nice drive out Jess & Family.🇬🇧🤝🏻🇺🇲
Yes, we always take time to notice it and appreciate those who gave all. Thank you for your comment. Cheers 🤍 Jess x
Roll on the summer when the skies are not so grey.
We're all ready, but the gray skies don't hold us back from enjoying England! Thank you for watching and supporting us. Have a lovely Thursday! Cheers 🤍 Jess & family x
There is a lovely walk through woods, from Holkham to Wells, in better weather of course.
Fab, thank you, friend, for the recommendation! We appreciate your love and support. Cheers 🤍 Jess x
Hi Jesse and Chris ,I noted on your last vlog that you would like a narrowboat on the broads ,now narrowboats are really canal boats ,so the broads are rivers and in the main the boats are broader 'cruisers' usually up to about 12ft beam. A suggestion would be to hire a dayboat from ,say, Wroxham where there any many boat hire firms ,just to give you an idea of what the broads are all about. A tip, try to avoid bank holidays! Always enjoy your vids .
Fabulous, thank k you, friend, for the recommendation. We will definitely be planning that at sharing our adventure with you all. Thank you for your support! Cheers 🤍 Jess x
Hi family , another enjoyable drive , I'm always getting lost 😅 but sometimes they take you places you would never have seen before . 😊❤
Thank you for your support. We appreciate your kindness. We love travel around. Cheers 🤍 Jess & family x
Norwich lad here great to see my home county
Indeed it is. Cheers, Chris and Jess.
Very popular places to visit that you passed are Wells itself, Holkham beach which is renowned also dog friendly and Cromer, famous for its crabs. Just to have a look around and be next to the sea lovely when the weather's better.
Wells Next the Sea beach is certainly worth seeing as is Walsingham with all it's history as an ancient site of Christian pilgrimage - you can even ride between the two on a heritage volunteer run narrow gauge railway that nips through the fields at surprising speed. But thats more for Summer days, I think. Just down the coast is Sheringham, a traditional English seaside resort, very nice for a weekend trip in warm weather. There's also another heritage steam railway there, The North Norfolk Railway, that is a busy tourist attraction, and justifiably so as in runs along the coast over low rolling hills with pretty countryside.
Fab, thank you so much for the wonderful recommendation! Truly appreciate your time. Hope you have a lovely day. Cheers 🤍 Jess x
Love your videos. You seem to have hit the sweet spot.
Thanks, we do appreciate the kind words. Cheers, Chris and Jess.
The North Norfolk Coast is very important for wildlife. When my mother used to visit her sister - who lived in Norfolk - her sister would take her bird-spotting there - in January. My mother nearly froze solid! Do you realize that the coldest parts of the whole of Great Britain in winter are not in North Scotland, but near where you were driving? I believe there is no land between that coast where you were and the North Pole!
So in the winter you can either get the north wind from the Pole or the east wind, with little between it and the Urals.
I noticed Holkham, pronounced 'Hokum', I believe. Coke ( pronounced 'cook') of Holkham was an 18th-century nobleman who was very important in the Agricultural Revolution, when British aristocrats worked hard to improve agricultural techniques. I think Coke - his family may now be Earls of Leicester - was important in developing selective breeding of livestock. You may want to look him up.
Truly appreciate your time and sharing all the wonderful insight and recommendations. We hope you are well. Cheers 🤍 Jess x
We did the Cotswolds, Malvern Hills, and Bath in June in a Morgan we hired. They look right out of the 20s. It was an open top alot of fun but even in June one day we had to put the hood up. Though the other 13 days it was scorching. Thats British weather for you. We don't let rain stop us we just carry waterproof clothing
At least the weather gives you something to talk about. Thanks for watching and commenting. Cheers, Chris and Jess.
If you stop at Burnham you can get onto Holkham beach and walk to Wells ( or Wells to Burnham. There is a coasthopper bus to return.
The beach is epic any time of year but esp in winter.
Fabulous, thank you for sharing! We truly appreciate your recommendation. We will definitely go check it out very soon. Cheers 🤍 Jess & family x
Hi Jess, Chris and family. Have you been to the Broads, yet, where the boat hire is to see the waterways? Such a shame re the weather. Your trips bring back so many memories. Thank you.
We have, but not yet on, hired a boat for a tour. Very soon, friend! We appreciate your kindness and support. Cheers 🤍 Jess & family x
The village that was flooded was Burnham Market, it has a nick name of Chelsea on Sea due to the fact a lot of rich Londoners own properties there. The average house price there is £1.8m.
That is an impressive average amount for a house. Thanks for the info, watching and commenting. Cheers, Chris and Jess.
The stone wall on your left as you enter Wells is - probably - the wall of the Holkham estate. Holkham Hall is widely regarded asthe loveliest house in England for its Palladian elegance. The estate is very important in the history of agriculture as it was the home and "laboratory" of "Coke of Norfolk". It would be well worthwhile checking them both in Wikipedia.
Oh, very interesting. Thank k you for sharing. We appreciate your time. Hope you have a wonderful day. Cheers 🤍 Jess x
If one shuts your eyes ( no not the driver) your commentary almost
Describes your adventure. Well Done
Love it! I'm so glad you come enjoy our fun adventures we share with you all. We love sharing with you all. It is so much fun. Thank you for your love and support. Cheers 🤍 Jess x
If you like Norfolk, I had a great time a few years back at the shire horse centre at West Runton. It's on the A149 near Cromer. Lots of other animals besides large horses that have been rescued, often from neglect. Free to go in but they obviously welcome donations to help their work.
Love, thank you for sharing! We will look into that. We appreciate your time watching and leaving a comment. Cheers 🤍 Jess x
Love how you guys arn't even slightly fed up with the weather! It will be a shame when you return to the US. I hope the videos continue!
Oh, we try to make the best of all our time here! We can let time exploring be missed. We will be sad when we have to go but know we will take you all along with us. We appreciate all your love and support. Cheers 🤍 Jess & family x
The Hero refers to Admiral Lord Nelson who was born nearby in Burnham Thorpe. You need to visit nearby Walsingham which is the home of a Catholic pilgrimage. It's still interesting even if you're not religious.
Fab, thank you for the lovely recommendation. We really appreciate your time. Cheers 🤍 Jess x
You do go to the Dr every year for what I call an MOT if you have certain illnesses.
That makes sense! Thank you, friend, for your comment. Cheers 🤍 Jess x
Can't let a little rain get in the way of exploring the beautiful UK. I have several fond memories of rainy family outings. The drone footage was an added plus. As always, thanks.
Most definitely! I'm so glad you enjoyed the day out with us. We hope you have a lovely day. Cheers 🤍 Jess & family x
You can't get an appoitment at the doctors now.They say they are too busy.
Oh no. I hope that works it's self out for everything that needs care. Cheers 🤍 Jess x
I live not very far from here at all its such a lovely countryside
How fab! It's so beautiful. I agree with you, friend. Thank you for your comment. Cheers 🤍 Jess x
The fried egg flowers you refer too are called narcissi( I think that’s how it is spelled)
I love their scent but haven't seen any wild ones for years!
It's a shame the weather didn't hold out for you guys , but it's nice you didn't let it get you down . I loved the video .❤
We still loved the adventure. I'm so glad you came along with us. Thank you for all your loving support. Cheers 🤍 Jess x
Northumberland ! Nuff said
Thanks, friend. Cheers 🤍 Jess x
Sorry about the weather, but the whole country has been a bit wet lately. I know some of this area in Norfolk, but I've never been to Burnham Ovary. I guess it's nicer when the sun shines!🙂
Burnham Ovarey Staithe I think it's spelt, I used to live in Burnham Market, but cycled to the Staithe, where Nelson was training to be a midshipman, at age 12...
There's no need to be sorry. We always make the best out of our day exploring beautiful places. We love it and can't wait to explore even more. Cheers 🤍 Jess x
Makes me greatful to be here
I'm so glad! We love it also. Cheers 🤍 Jess x
Unfortunately we have now had the wettest18 months since records began I believe in 1856, England in the sunshine is a different place
Yes, unfortunately. Hopefully, a beautiful sunny summer is coming! Cheers 🤍 Jess x
Roll on Summer.
We're ready for it. Hope you have a lovely day. Cheers 🤍 Jess x
Seagulls, I call them Landgulls, because they are hardly ever at sea , they are big because they eat nothing but takeaways .
Interesting, thank you for your insight. Appreciate your time watching. Cheers 🤍 Jess x
Pity about the weather..however it doesn't detract from the rustic beauty of the south east ...a delightful part of our beautiful country
Indeed it did not distract from the beauty. Thanks for watching and commenting. Cheers, Chris and Jess.
Nice one again 😊 folks
Thank you for your kindness and love support! We hope you have a lovely Thursday. Cheers 🤍 Jess & family x
sorry t rained for you...stuff looks a lot better when its subby
It does, but we enjoyed it none the less. Cheers, Chris and Jess.
Loads of space, regular motorway, Cornwall is another story 😅
We shall find out soon enough. Cheers, Chris and Jess.
@@DaydreamersBarn Cornwall is beautiful, Poldark country ( Google it ) along with Northumberland the best 2 English Counties the latter home to castles and Hadrians Wall
Beautiful!
Thank you! Cheers 🤍 Jess x
Thoroughly enjoyed this video. Even in the rain, these villages are gorgeous. We have our holidays in North Norfolk ( Cromer, Sheringham, and Overstrand. "I was wondering if you have been ? It would be great to see if you haven't x 😊 highly recommend 👌 Overstrand Beach is beautiful x
Friend, I'm so glad you enjoyed the day out with us. We haven't been thank yoi for the recommendations! We definitely appreciate all your love and support! Cheers 🤍 Jess x
I love your sunny optimism. To be a true Brit, after the wettest 8 months on record, you should be saying, "Bl****y hell, will this f*****g weather ever dry up? It's s**t!". Was on the north norfolk coast during that beautiful weather we had las tSeptember and it not only brought back my childhood seaside trips. but was so gorgeous You need to explore Holkham beach (also in Norfolk - they also have a lovely house you can see on the days it is open) f you want a beautiful walk for dogs. This was the beach that was used for the final scene in the film Shakespeare in Love.
Love it! I love to bring a smile to people's faces. I love to share my joy with people. I can't let the bl***y weather 😉 get to me. Truly appreciate your comment and support. Cheers 🤍 Jess x
So enjoyable
I'm so glad you enjoyed it. We appreciate your support. Cheers 🤍 Jess x
Lovely video, lovely people 😊
Just to let you know, the best time to visit Exbury Gardens is approaching - their website gives updates on their famous rhododendrons and when they are at their best for flowers. You’ll be absolutely stunned how beautiful this place is x
Thank you, friend, for your love and support! We appreciate your recommendation on the gardens. Cheers 🤍 Jess x
OMG its always raining on your trips!!! Its not always like this honest, apparently it's the wettest winter we've had in the UK for 200yrs!!!!
Oh, well, some of them, but it's still a fun adventure. Thank you for your comment. Cheers 🤍 Jess x
If you can overnight, why not have a trip through the Chunnel to France/Belgium?
There are loads of places right by the exit which are lovely, in the Pas de Calais for instance, only around a 4 and a quarter hour drive from you, including the time in the tunnel!
Try the Marais Audomarois, for instance, France's answer ( one of them! ) to the broads!
If you are lovers of seafood, anywhere around there and on the coast is great.
You will have to go a bit further to sample another country once you are back in the states!
PS. Another lovely drive, thanks for sharing!
PPS They also drive on the 'right' side of the road there, or mostly! ;-)
Fabulous, love all your recommendations and insight! We appreciate your kindness and support. Cheers 🤍 Jess x
Thank you for sharing this. Unfortunately, April is the month of April showers, but that is why the UK is so green. In a few months, there will be a hosepipe ban, go figure. Did I hear you mention seagulls? You should go to Lyme Regis as there is an elite fighter squadron of gulls there. They do not take prisoners. Guard your fish and chips with your life as they will take the whole meal, in a second. I witnessed a gull snatch its meal and soar out over the beach. It was immediately ambushed by his mates and in the scuffle, the meal was dropped onto the beach. Unfortunately, it landed in the lap of a young woman reading a book. The flock immediately descended on her. We all felt sorry for her but it was hilarious. Regarding, not wanting to park on the sand. Tides in the UK can come in very quickly on flat land and rise several if not dozens of feet in minutes. Apart from losing your car, it is easy to get cut off when you are in a cove, and it comes in behind you. Stay safe, and Chris is an amazing driver.
Moving west from Lyme Regis into darkest Cornwall, you will find the lovely fishing village of Mousehole (pr. mao-zell) and its dessert squadron of herring gulls. These gulls are actually in league with the local ice cream vendors who open their booths every summer to attract gull-ible tourists. As everyone from outside Cornwall is a foreigner to the locals, especially the colonising English, do not be upset if you are called a "grockle" - this may be a term of abuse but as every non-local is called that, please do not feel picked upon.
Anyway, when the ice cream vendors open for summer they immediately train new gulls in the art of grockle-raiding. The vendor will supply the grockles with helpings of ice cream, served in an edible container of curved wafer, aka a cornet. A grockle will raise his/her cornet to the mouth and place the tongue in licking position - only to be struck by a blow to the head as the sound of thudding wings can be heard. And lo, the grockle is left with empty hand extended and empty tongue cooled only by the wind. The only option is for the grockles to return to the vendor's stand where they purchase another ice cream, this time to the tune of "that will be another couple of quid, thanks". When the vendor shuts up shop in late afternoon, you may see the edge of the sea wall lined with fat gulls exchanging tales of derring-do and recounting the number of cornets they snagged that day while, as the sun sinks slowly in the west, the vendors load the day's takings into their newly-polished Porsches and drive slowly home through the narrow lanes.
@@carolineb3527Wow, so eloquent. You put me to shame with this hilarious tale. Unfortunately, it is all true. It is the same for the fish and chip vendors who make a fortune from double sales. They even have warning notices that they are not responsible for the food once it leaves their premises. Those gulls sit on the wall behind the shacks and plan their attack. It is amazing how skilful they are.
I'm so glad you enjoyed the adventure with us. Thanks for sharing about the gulls and the recommendation on where to see them. We appreciate your kindness and support. Hope you have a lovely rest of the week. Cheers 🤍 Jess x
The "Burnhams" Horatio Nelson 's old stamping ground. You are walking where he once walked. Son of Norfolk. You can see where he got the love of water.

'Before the Romans came to Rye or to the Seven strode, the rolling English drunkard made the rolling English road '.
That is something we didn't know. Cheers, Chris and Jess.
Is there any chance that you could possibly adopt me? I am getting on a bit now, so it probably wouldn't be for very long. Oh, and I don't eat as much as I used to.
Friend, very kind of you to ask. We love to travel and explore and learn. I'm so glad we can share our love and joy with you through our videos. Thank you for all your love and support. Cheers 🤍 Jess x
