Great video with a lot of information. was the sofa bed comfortable? Whatever you can remember, we are thinking to book a stay and wondering if kids would be comfortable to sleep on it. Thank you for the video.
I remember it being comfortable! 🙂 have a great trip!
thanks for the honest feedback. was thinking of doing this but you've persuaded me not too spend hundreds extra dollars!
I agree the food isn't as great. I miss the mex food.
I moved from Orange County, CA to Palm Bay, FL. I love it but still miss CA.
I love Orange County. If we could’ve afforded to live there, we would’ve!😆 Florida is the next best (more affordable than OC) thing. 😊💛☀️
Satan’s armpit! LOL!!!
🤣🤣🤣🤣 best way to describe it lol!
Hi there beautiful sharing ! is this salty water or fresh water beach ?
Salt water!
congrats. I use to own a house in Cape Coral fl. I dont miss burning my hands on the steering wheel in the hot summer months. the very hot humid air sometimes would give me breathing issues. even in Jacksonville. BUGS! Lots of bugs. The property taxes went sky high on me. in 2011 when I first bought property taxes were only $2200. By 2018 my property taxes were $6500. The healthcare in FL is very BAD. you have to drive from Cape Coral FL to a doctor in TAMPA because south FL hospitals really really SUCK. Electricity bills sky high too. Now I Live in Joshua Tree CA. 2008 home 1600 SF 3 bed 2 bath 2 car garage on 1 acer of land and a solar panel roof for $215k. LOVE it here! No crime. Free electricity. $3000 property taxes. Much better doctors. Warm summers but not humid. 50 degree winters. plenty of hiking. 4 wheel driving. easy trip to LA and San Diego and VEGAS.
I love this comment, it shows just how everything is about perspective and can be very situational! Research, research, research on location and all that comes with it, is so important! And especially researching what will fit best for each person’s own desires. Congratulations on your move to Joshua tree ❤️
You guys should check out the Don Cesar in St Pete
Interesting, I’ll have to look that up! Thank you!
So glad to have this video, we are considering a move from California to the Orlando area as well. Thank you for your perspective. We are in the central valley and I was wondering how the heat compared. It gets so hot here as well.
Thank you for your comment! The humidity is very real, but if you can survive a Central Valley California summer, you can definitely survive an Orlando summer! We just hide in air conditioning or swim all summer. And enjoy the afternoon thunderstorm winds when they come 😊 I wish you all the best in your journey and feel free to reach out anytime if you have questions about our experience!
Like 3. Its so beautiful in Nassau. I went when i was younger but not since. Ive been trying to talk Joe into it but travel warnings are high for crime.
The new port area is definitely worth checking out! 😊
"Do you like being filmed?" "No." 😂 The children dancing with Donald!!! 🥹🥹🥹 I'm glad you felt so much better as the trip went by for you. A lot of my momma friends feel the same way about Bibbiddi B. One and Done but fun to see the kiddos enjoy themselves. I don't comment a lot but I just wanted to let you know I've been enjoying this trip so much. Good old family fun ❤️😌 Oh my goodness! When I was younger I used to also do what Mav was doing on the water with his hands. Like walking my fingers on it. Next Disney Cruise we are taking is next year from Galveston on the Magic. Gonna miss Cast Away Cay though.
You are so sweet Vene ❤️❤️❤️ thank you 🥰 I feel the same way about your Japan videos!!! I always watch RUclips now just on my tv instead of my phone so I never comment on anything ever…. But I have been LOVING your Japan trip! How exciting, I’ve never cruised out of Texas but always wanted to!
We are in the process of the same thing. I wanna say we are moving exactly from the same region you were at here in the Central Valley. If possible to get some pointers it would be greatly appreciated.
Oh my gosh, how exciting! And scary! And all of the emotions, I’m sure. We used U-pack for moving containers and sold most of our big furniture on Facebook marketplace/ garage sales before moving and started over once we got to Florida. Biggest advice I have is save as much $$ as you can before you move, and take your time researching every potential area. Once you think you have an area in mind, go and physically look at it. Feel free to ask me anything about our move anytime, and congratulations!
The water was so pretty! Love the silent disco party!
Aww hi! 😘😘😘 The water was unreal!💎
What an amazing family! Kids are spoiled and very loved. How are you liking life in FL? Would like a 1-year update video.
That is such a sweet message, thank you so much. We absolutely love it here. I filmed a 1 year update, but need to upload it! Will get it out soon 😄
This was a very helpful video. Thank you!
I’m glad! Thank you for watching 😊
When your kids get a little older, you can teach them the song “The Other Day I Met a Bear” because that’s a perfect song to sing when you’re camping
Oh my gosh, so fun to see this embarkation! Be careful of the rapid spins on room tours (etc...) it gives the viewer the dizzies (new word lol)!
Thank you so much! I need to work on moving my camera around more slowly! 🤣❤️
It sounds like you lived is sac when you described the weather 🤣🤣🤣
Modesto area, but yes. Same thing 😂
people are dying to get rid of their furniture here in Florida...
I live near Orange County in California and love to go to Huntington Beach and Newport Beach cause how clean it is. We can’t afford to live in Orange County and want to move to Florida but don’t know what would be comparable to Orange County. Any suggestions? South Florida, east Florida, west Florida, central Florida.?
How exciting! My favorite is south west Florida, the gulf water is gorgeous and the sand is so soft and white!! Definitely a slower pace compared to the Miami area. My personal favorite is lido key, but any of the beaches in the general Sarasota area are beautiful.
I love how the Cove on DCL puts characters on their specialty coffee
Me too 😆
Fun times! ❤
😁
Thanks a lot for sharing! Did you book their offshore activities? Just want to know if it's worth it.
Thanks for watching! We did not book any this time since our itinerary was last minute changed from Bermuda to Western Caribbean due to weather.
I always wondered what it looked like inside. I live in this and I practically drive by that building on a regular basis.
Sooo much fun! ❤
😊
Can you tell me about how much is your home insurance now, because I heard is expensive … we are moving to the Clermont area very soon and we are super excited !! Coming from CA too 😊
I’ll have to check on that and get back to you - how exciting!!! So happy for you! ❤️❤️❤️
Y'all went with backup. That was smart... Edited to add: You don't have to be cold like that. You can take a portable heater for nurseries that don't get hot to touch or even a heating pad or electric blanket. I can't sleep cold but there are ways around that. You don't like "rawdog" camping and I don't blame you! Try again with a more reasonable set up.
Haha! Very good ideas!!! Will keep all that in mind if we ever brave it again. 🤣
Does the resort have beach items to borrow? It’s always hard to travel and have to buy items that you can’t really tame back home on the plane ✈️
Not that I recall, but maybe check by calling the front desk and see! That would be helpful if you’re flying!
Don’t move to FL you gonna regret it low pay jobs,hurricanes,mosquitoes,high humidity,heat,living like in Latin America,crazy drivers,black bears,love bugs stick in your cars,etc I hate Fl I lived there for 2 years and not anymore.
Thanks for your input!! Everyone has different experiences and it’s important to hear all different ones!
I forgot to say home insurance craziness and sky rocket property taxes crazy FL.
Florida is the best!! Lived there my whole life. Moved a few years ago and moving back soon!
I agree ❤️
Our family of 7 did the same thing in 2021. NY to a central FL. It's definitely a whirlwind. We didn't have jobs or a place to rent (stayed in an Airbnb for two weeks) when we came, amazing how God provides. Our family battled sickness during our transition also. We stayed with family for two weeks before we left and all had a terrible stomach bug, what a send off!!! So thankful we made the move😊🌞
Aww! Congratulations to you and your big family! 💕 love hearing that, and so happy for you all. Getting sick right in the chaos of moving is always a treat!😆
Hi! We are moving to florida from california soon, do you still remember the moving company you guys used to move your household goods? I would really appreciate the help! God Bless!
Congratulations!! So exciting!!! We used u-pack containers!
@@SilvaFamilyTravels thanks for the info, we are excited and overwhelmed all at the same time…
@@queenieibay743 I 100% know that feeling! It’s a roller coaster of emotions! Exciting, sad to leave friends/ family, happy, stressful, thankful, all the things! Feel free to reach out to me anytime you need to talk!
Thanks for sharing your non Mcds experience😂. That’s sounds like something I would have done for my kids too!
🤣😂🤣 it was quite the memory!! Lol
We are in the process of moving from SoCal to Gainesville. How was your experience with U-Pack? How much did the two pods cost you?
Congratulations!!! We loved our experience with u-pack. The process was very smooth, easy, and their customer service was excellent for us. 2 pods costed us about $6k. The only issue we had with ours is that we moved right before hurricane Ian, and our pods sat outside during the hurricane, and we ended up having mold on the blankets that we packed right against the door opening inside. The rest of our stuff past that main opening behind the blankets were fine. Had hurricane Ian not happened, I don’t think that would’ve been an issue though at all. My parents also used the same company for their move to FL and had zero issues of mold or anything.
Please keep in mind that Florida has no flood disclosure requirements. Buy or rent at your own risk. 😮
Thanks for adding that info!!
looks like a wonderful time!! i will check this place out for my 2 littles.
We had a great time. Definitely would go back!
Do you remember if the kitchen had pots/pans and cooking utensils? I am staying there in September and am curious if I need to take any of my own things.
I’m not sure since we didn’t need them, I would call just to be safe 🙂
Congratulations on your move to FL. I lived there for about 12 years (in the Orlando area and Ft. Lauderdale area). I miss it. What I found interesting was that even though Ft. Lauderdale is further south, the weather was more comfortable because it's closer to the coast. Orlando is so hot because it is so far inland. If you ever get tired of the heat but want to stay in FL, just move closer to the coast. Also people really are nicer in FL than in other parts of the country.
Aw, thank you so much! I can definitely see that, someone told me Orlando is the hottest place in FL, and I think I believe it now 😂. The people here really are so friendly. Thanks for your comment, it really is a special place here. ❤️
Welcome to florida. Glad to have you here. I'm moving to Cali because I don't like the weather in florida too hot for me.
Thank you so much for your kind words! Congratulations and best wishes on your move to CA, the weather is definitely more mild there!
Weather did not seem that nice; thank you for sharing your time in Carlsbad with us.
It was very cloudy and chilly! Was a nice break from the summer heat for us, but you’re right, definitely not the typical “beach weather” one might want. Thank you for watching ❤️
Please do a update video, thanks for all the info!
Thanks so much for watching- definitely will put out an update video something this week!
Awesome video! I live in sacramento with my wife right now and I’m thinking about moving to Florida ! So far almost everything seems better over there. Will see if it happens 😊
Thank you! Aww, hope you can make it happen! We are so glad we did it!!!
hello! i came across your channel when me and my wife decided to make this move from Bakersfield ca to Orlando and were currently in the process of selling our home and making this move. How has it been so far? Any updates so far for you and your family ? also thanks for this video i haven't seen anyone post this move in such good detail!
Aww thank you so much! I’m so happy for you guys!!! This will be the biggest, scariest, most exciting leap of faith for you and I hope it’s everything you dream it will be. I plan to do a 6 month update video soon since we just passed our 6 month mark of living here! But we still absolutely LOVE it here and feel like this is HOME.❤️ Absolutely zero regrets. Make sure to do lots of research on towns in the area if you haven’t already, and be sure to visit places in person before pulling any triggers!
How did you learn to deal with the summers there? We live in Manteca CA and the summer months I hear are just crazy,
Oh hey old neighbor!! To me, they’re surprisingly more bearable than the valley! Because every afternoon a storm rolls in and with it comes lots of wind and it literally drops the temps about 10-15 degrees within minutes! The mornings are hot and humid, but no more miserable than the Central Valley heat of 110 in the summer! We enjoy the change of clouds and afternoon rain storms here vs. the dry desert oven heat back in the Modesto area lol.
Hey Silva family! Loved the video and hope you settled down and everythings going well. We're a family of 5, moved from Romania to the US last year and while we're currently in NC, we're really looking into moving to Florida this year. Could you share where in Florida did you all move to? I assume it's around Orlando, but if you could share some good, family-friendly, safe communities there. Thank you so much!
Congratulations! How exciting!! We haven’t seen all the towns in the Orlando area but hear there are plenty of amazing ones! Some that we’ve heard good things about are Saint Cloud, Ocoee, Clermont, Celebration, Windermere, Winter Garden.. I’m sure there are a ton that I’ve missed!
I’m from California and am currently living in Orlando. I disagree about the summer weather. I’ll take a 100*F+ dry heat summer day in CA over the 96*F 100% humidity in FL any day! July and August are the worst months here IMO.
Hi! Haha, we can agree to disagree on that one! Modesto summers where it feels like you’re in a nonstop oven from may-October we’re more miserable for me than the everyday thunderstorms that blow through here and drop the afternoon temps significantly! 🤣 But everyone has their own opinions! I agree that August is the hottest/ most humid here for sure. Where in California are you from? Congratulations on your move, also ❤️
We are also moving out of state from the Central Valley and I’m scared, sad and excited also! I’ve been crying a lot too, so many emotions! We just put our house up for sale and I’m getting crazy anxious!
Oh my gosh,how exciting and scary and all the feelings!!!!! Congratulations to you guys for taking such a huge leap of faith!! It’s so worth it. ❤️❤️❤️ Are you also moving to Florida?
We are from Fresno actually Clovis, so we lived where you are from. But we moved in the opposite direction, to WI! Such a change, it's cold and snowy. We were able to afford 80 acres and my husband raises beef, he's retired from teaching. I miss the Chinese food. Most ppl don't realize that when the 1st Chinese came to the US, they came to CA, so the food is different than anywhere else. Enjoyed the video. My daughter was in her 1st yr. of Hi School when we moved, so it was hard. So it's good your kids are younger.
Thank you so much for your sweet words!😭Wow- that’s a big move for you! Congratulations on making such a scary and exciting change also!! I agree, the Chinese food is SO good in CA! The thing I think I miss the most (other than loved ones) is the food on the west coast.😆 I’m sure that was hard for your daughter in high school at first. I hope she adjusted well after all. Congratulations on the beef business, what an incredible thing to have 80 acres of land. Thank you again for your kindness ❤️
Where are you in FLORDIA??
30 minutes from Orlando. 😄 Not going to share the exact town for privacy reasons, but we did a lot of research and joined a couple Facebook groups called “moving to Orlando” and “moving to Florida” and there were thousands of people in the groups with great insight on different towns and lots of information! ❤️
Hi there! Thanks for sharing your experience. We moved from the Bay Area California to south Florida in 2020!
Aw, nice!😊 congratulations!! How are you liking it now that you’ve lived here a couple years here now?
I don't live in Florida, but it concerns me that people will move from California and end up voting for the same things that cause 1000 people a day to leave CA. Florida is a beautiful state though, I hope the best for everyone who moves to that slice of paradise :)
Most people moving from California to Florida are not voting for the garbage they had to deal with in California. Please remember this. 😂
Yes my grandparents lived in Florida many years It's friendly The only thing about the south they aren't as health conscious and lots of smokers where California where I live currently has more of a health awareness of foods etc the resturaunts in California are amazing ..!
I could totally see that. I’ve noticed a lot more health awareness in food especially in ca vs. fl lol.
