This was so fun to watch! Do you have a video on how you met and fell in love? If you haven't done one yet, I think a lot of us would like to hear your story.
You two are just absolutely adorable. Happy anniversary and I’m glad you had a fun day. I don’t think I’ve ever seen Joe smile so much! I had a smile on my own face through the whole video as well. If you are ever passing through Illinois, we have a driveway for you to park in, a bed for you to sleep in ( if you want one!), and a super comfy cushion for Leo!
I love that you only do these on Wednesdays, it means I can keep up with them all cause I wouldn't want to miss one! Thanks for taking us to Disneyland!
First of all Happy 12th. My wife and I went to Florida Disney for our 13th (actual honeymoon after 13yrs) and we loved every minute of it. Now at 31 yrs or marriage, we enjoy just getting to know this great country of ours. We hope to one day do what you guys are doing. Till then, enjoy life to the fullest and take care of one another. Keep on shuffling. Paused video several times as we're watching game 2 of World Series and it's in extra innings. Say hi to Leo. Not to mention the rollercoaster ride 🤢. Big Fans from Texas Arnold/Josie Espinoza (Hershey/Chico)
I ALWAYS enjoy watching your videos. You look so happy even though shooting footage all the time must be a pain. You probably have great arm muscles from being your own steady cam. While I am still living the van life vicariously through you, each month I am getting closer to being able to get mine. Like in your book, it can take more than a year to put your plan in action to RV the majority of the time. But I will be that much better informed and realistic thanks to your videos. Congratulations on your anniversary, hitting 50 K subscribers and your book! What a bounty of accomplishments. I downloaded and read the whole book in one evening. I could not put it down! The great thing after watching your videos and listening to you two since you started this video journey, is while reading the book, I heard Joe’s narrative in his own voice and Kait’s in hers. It was like having an informal chat with you two. I hope you have time in your busy life to continue the written version of your story. Until then, I am enjoying the ride with you. Cheers
Thank you - a lot of people have said the same thing, that they could hear/see us acting out everything in the book as they read it. So happy you enjoyed it and if you have a moment, and haven't already done so, please consider leaving a review of the book on Amazon. I'm working on an Audiobook now for the first book and then off to finishing writing the second!
As a divorced single parent I envy y'all's relationship and lifestyle, and look forward to each and every new video. Thanks for truly brightening up my day! Oh, and congrats on your upcoming 12th anniversary. Best regards, Lloyd. PS - hope to meet you if.when y'all make it to the Houston area.
I'm from Malaysia..A small country compared to to the USA where camper van doesn't really make sense when the distance is very small.But I really love your video..It evokes the sense of freedom and enjoying what life have to offer..Wish all the best to you!!.
Love the video. I'm disabled and can't do the rides, so thanks for letting me ride along, I LOVE the atmosphere in both parks, who says I have to grow up, lol, keep having fun and enjoying what you do.
If you guys are into theme parks and roller coasters, you have to check out Cedar Point in Sandusky, OH. Super RV friendly with a campground next to the park and the coasters are out of this world!
Loved this installment. I work on the Racers ride every night. Maintaining control systems, A/V, and lighting. Nice to see people enjoy what you work for. As I enjoy your videos.
We've had the same thoughts about hotels recently. Your thoughts are very similar to ours. Couldn't see traveling extensively like we want using hotels...not to mention the cost. Taking your bed, your stuff and your home with you is so much better.
Great video heroes!! I loved your ride shots.. been years since I did either of the Disney's parks previously enjoyed many times both sides of our nation. Thanks as always and peace and bSAFE!
Not to burst your bubble, Club 33 is cool..but the coolest part about it is its exclusivity and history, definitely something to say you have done for a Disney geek.. I think I actually enjoyed dining in the Blue Bayou more.. if you can pull strings, Going to the top of the Matterhorn for opening was one of the coolest things for me.. and the basketball 1/2 court inside is something to see...
When ever I see you guys have a new video up it puts a 😃 smile on my face. You give us so much to look forward to in the van life style, we all had a 👍 great day with you thanks for letting us in.(By the way I was helping you gripping & hold on to the camera)😄😀 keep them coming!!
I'd much rather sleep in my own rv or van ( even if it was just on an air mattress in a cargo van) than risk bedbugs. I had to deal with them a few years back, not sure who they hitch hiked in with, and it took us 6 months or spraying and we had to toss 2 mattresses, 1 old sofa, and finally had to pull up the carpeting (it really needed to go anyway) Now I am super bed bug paranoid when ever I go to a hotel, and will not stay at a cheaper motel. I wish I could travel around in a class B like that. Keep up the good videos. 👁♠🕵
OK, I'm a little jealous about the trip to Disneyland, I'm not gonna lie. So far, Kara and I have been to Disney World and to Disneyland Paris. Bucket list: Go to all of 'em worldwide!
when i watch you tube i dont want to watch ads i always skip but when i found that you can earn a couple dollar to watch the ads i always watch or run coz i know the pain reliever of your baby leo is expensive thank you for showing your baby all the time
I was watching a "new" RV channel today & he was showing us how to cook the mean he was about to have, when he sat down to have the meal & watch RUclips, guess who he started watching!!! We're the Russos!!! What a surprise & so much fun to think of him watching you also!!!! His channel is Humble Road (I think, it's so new to me, I'm not for sure) Thank you for sharing all of this! LOL Judie
hitchhiker Ha! I love Humble Road! Glad you mentioned his channel! I think they actually might already be acquitted based on some comments that I read from Humble Road on his channel. Glad to read your post and see fellow fan!
I thought the best part was when you (Joe) were riding the roller coaster. I could feel the intensity sooo much watching your faces feeling the G forces. I almost felt like I was on the ride with you! lol Great job filming that! I was a little concerned that you might drop your camera but you must of held on tight! :)
I LOVE Disney!!! I've been to Disney World in Florida several times. The first time in 1978 when all they had was the Magic Kingdom. The last time I was there I found it was getting so busy that it took away some of the enjoyment. Maybe that happens with age. I've never been to Disneyland in CA however. Is there that much of a difference?? A great video ... I wish I was able to head to the southern climates this winter but alas it's not in the cards this year. I'm bracing for a LONG, COLD winter. Brrrrr ....
I found your vlogs and have been catching up on your old vlogs but have been inspired lately by yourselves and other vloggers to just get out there!! Ordering a new Campervan in the new year plus I’ve just ordered your paperback from Amazon too.. I have no doubt it will be a great read and informative 👍🏻
The last time I was at Disneyland there were inexpensive motels about a block away & the Disneyland Hotel was brand new. My favorite was Mr. Toad's Wild Ride & I got so sick of the "It's a Small World" song that I wanted to jump off the Matterhorn mountain. In other words - it's been a while. Great video as always.
Awesome video and lifestyle....what is amazing to me is that in less than a year you will be making the decision about your home on wheels, keep it or not.
Looks like the Haunted House has changed over the years. When I was stationed in San Diageo we got to go to the grand opening of the Haunted House in 1969 and boy the line was long!!! Like your videos!!
If you put a gardening knee pad (made of nerf type material, very light) in your backpack, against your back, you won't feel the lumpiness. Works great!
OMG! You guys are so brave. I have never been on a roller coaster and have no intention of ever getting on one🤢 But it was nice tagging along virtually. Glad you had such a great time. 🎢 😃
I was inclined towards the lexor ts from pleasure way. My mind was set!🤔 then I checked the hymer....thanks to u guys ! We have a cat and the lexor would give us great personal comfort....but not for the cat! She will need a litter box and that space u have under the bed..Aweaome👍👍. Gotta think about the furballs too. It's also a beautiful van . Love it.
We're the Russos yes I will! Leo is such a cool pup. And that's the whole point. We can see him comfortable so I would see no issues for a cat. Happy safe travels guys.
btw: Just received my paper back copy of your book. I picked it up from the Post Office today. It looks great and I'm looking forward to reading your story :)
We love Disney too! Cars is probably our favorite ride out of all the parks including the ones at Walt Disney World. Good job holding onto that camera during the coaster ride👐. We are going to WDW in a couple of weeks and staying at fort wilderness, this will be our first real vacation in our RV and we are hoping it goes well. We are so used to staying at the Disney hotels that we are worried that it won't feel like a vacation since we will still be at home lol, keeping our fingers crossed that it is just as magical at their campground as it is everywhere else. Take care guys. Great video as always👍
+Moving Forward we loved Fort Wilderness and would stay there again. Hope you enjoy the experience just as much and it has even more of a vacation feel.
We're the Russos, just realized we never got back to you to say that you guys were right!!! Fort Wilderness was awesome!! We are planning to do another trip there, but this time spend more time at the campground and less at the parks. Take care guys and safe Travels
What is so important about door 33? This is a wonderful video. Thanks for taking me along. I have never been to Disneyland and probably never will. I truly enjoyed the day with you. Did you eat all of the food that you packed for the day? Thanks for sharing. Stay safe and happy adventuring. Love ya Joyce
Hi Joyce! Glad you were able to "join us" for the day. We did eat most of the food we packed, the only thing left were the sardines. Oh and Club 33 is an exclusive dining club at Disneyland.
The only way the Russos (or any of us) are going through that Club 33 door anytime soon is if a Club 33 member takes them/us along with him/her. Otherwise, forget it: "As of 2011, there is a 14-year waiting list for new memberships. The membership waiting list was re-opened in May 2012 after being closed for 5 years.[5] Corporate members pay an initiation fee of $50,000, and individual members pay $50,000 in addition to annual dues, which are about $15,000." -- en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Club_33 -- BR
Had the opportunity to dine there with a member friend. He uses it more for corporate events (expense reports, ya know). I admit I was somewhat ... underwhelmed. Maybe the entire mystique surrounding it pumped up my expectations too much.
I agree with underwhelming. I work at Disney and was given a tour of 33 when I started. Really did not understand the high price tag. The decor and feel felt... musty. So I guess the service must be out of this world... fairy tales and pixie dust.
Do you watch Gone with the Wynn's They are in Panama and did a great video where they toured a coffee plantation and got to taste, etc. I think you would enjoy it.
I'm in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada and I was wondering if you travelled into Canadian Land over the last 2 years. Alberta in a great province for travelling near Lake Louise and Banff. If never you want to explore the Capital of Canada you are more than welcome to stay at our house during summer time I guess cause no winter for you guy's. We have a 10 parking lot space in the driveway so a lot of space. I have been through all of your videos and they all incredible and exciting. We are expecting to buy an Hymer Aktiv in the few years or so and that is why we came across you guy's on you tube channel after researching some Hymer on You tube. You are a great inspiration for lifestyle. Cheers
+Michel Allard Hi Michel. We haven't made it to Canada yet but it's on our list. Thank you for the offer to driveway surf, if you don't mind shooting us an email with your contact information we'll reach out when we make it to your area. Thanks!
Again a great video ... thx Guys. Just hoping you could do another session on little tips and tricks for living in the Aktiv (as an Aktiv 1.0 owner) - for example the towel holder. Any ideas you have for improving maneuverability would be greatly appreciated!
That's a good idea and we're trying to work things into each video. Maneuverability? We don't have any issues with it so not something we're looking to improve. The only "upgrade" we want is 4x4 but you can't do that on the Promaster.
We're the Russos Thanks. I meant maneuverability within the van/ease of use when doing daily routines in the van. Also looking forward to you guys making your rounds in Canada! You are welcome to hang out on our drive anytime - just give a heads up! (Maybe another book - this time across Canada?)
I love you guys! So much fun! I can't wait until we have the chance to take our gang to one of these parks! I can't believe you hung on to your camera on that roller coaster!! What did the ride operator think??
I hope you guys are going to be at the Vegas RV show on Nov 6th. I really love your class B and I am strongly considering in getting one. Have fun and enjoy Disneyland!
You probably are right. But I am going to check it out since I live here in Vegas anyway. I am really excited to see a real Hymer and see the real McCoy. All the dealers here in Vegas like to push a lot of Class A and Class C stuff. I am going to try to see one of my contacts at Johnnie Walker's RVs to sneak me in or get an industry pass to get an up front look. Thank you and you have made me fell motivated about purchasing the Hymer. By the way I have a question? How much did you folks put down and where did you get your Hymer? I might just road trip out of my state when I get more vacation time to the nearest dealer that sells the Hymer. Thank you I enjoy your videos and make me understand. Is your books also available in Barnes and Noble also?
We've done a lot of international travel in the past but we are doing this now to spend more time with our dog. Once he's gone, we'll go back overseas.
I really enjoy your videos and your travels I understand about your dog problems because I had my dog put down this last year but I what my question is you said that you're renting or leasing your class B until the end of the year what is your plans for living and your travel plans
Happy Anniversary :) I have a question which is a little off topic of this video.. ..but you did mention changing the filter at the beginning. Just wondering about your Berkey. Is it a full size or the travel size? How often do you replace your filter?
Can I ask you two a question? When at Disneyland or DisneyWorld, how old would you think you were, if you didn't already know your age? Really cool video...gave me an slight endorphin rush too 😃👍😎
We're the Russos Let me put it this way. Looking at you guys on that Roller Coaster, I thought you were in your mid teens...not your 30's lol! How old would you guys say you were riding on that bad boy? Whenever im at Disney, I think im 12...and I KNOW IM 57 😂😂
Here is the one we have: amzn.to/2gEWmdN It works well for smaller spaces and two people. If you have a bigger, family, etc - look at getting one of the larger sizes.
Watch Episode 26: goo.gl/TaCqiM

Wish we were there also. Next best thing watching your video.
This was so fun to watch! Do you have a video on how you met and fell in love? If you haven't done one yet, I think a lot of us would like to hear your story.

We have been Annual Passholders for awhile now and have found that single rider is the way to go! Kait knows what she’s talking about lol ;)
First of all Happy 12th. My wife and I went to Florida Disney for our 13th (actual honeymoon after 13yrs) and we loved every minute of it.

Omgosh, that roller coaster. I rode a smaller one with eyes closed, yet I still almost passed out.
Love the video. I'm disabled and can't do the rides, so thanks for letting me ride along, I LOVE the atmosphere in both parks, who says I have to grow up, lol, keep having fun and enjoying what you do.
I've heard of we are the russos but this is the first time I've visited your channel. You guys are adorable.
We celebrated our 50th anniversary with our kids & grandkids in June at disneyland. All 19 of us had a great time at the happiest place on earth.
If you guys are into theme parks and roller coasters, you have to check out Cedar Point in Sandusky, OH. Super RV friendly with a campground next to the park and the coasters are out of this world!
Then I'll have to come meet you guys. Looking forward to your next video.
That was a heap of fun!!! Thanks for bringing us along on your anniversary!
Loved this installment. I work on the Racers ride every night. Maintaining control systems, A/V, and lighting. Nice to see people enjoy what you work for. As I enjoy your videos.
Thanks Christian! Awesome ride, really well done and thank you for all the hard work you put in for people like us to enjoy it!
We've had the same thoughts about hotels recently. Your thoughts are very similar to ours. Couldn't see traveling extensively like we want using hotels...not to mention the cost. Taking your bed, your stuff and your home with you is so much better.
Joe & Kait, congratulations on the book. I look forward to reading it.
I enjoyed going on that ride with you two...don't know how Joe was able to hang onto the camera. Fun video, thanks!
Great video heroes!! I loved your ride shots.. been years since I did either of the Disney's parks previously enjoyed many times both sides of our nation.
Thanks as always and peace and bSAFE!
Thanks for taking us along on your journey. My wife and I looked at a Hymer yesterday at a dealership in Roanoke, VA.
Not to burst your bubble, Club 33 is cool..but the coolest part about it is its exclusivity and history, definitely something to say you have done for a Disney geek.. I think I actually enjoyed dining in the Blue Bayou more.. if you can pull strings, Going to the top of the Matterhorn for opening was one of the coolest things for me.. and the basketball 1/2 court inside is something to see...
You two are so happy at Disney! So cute!
Your Expressions on that roller coaster ride was classic! Lol! Also happy 12th anniversary!
You guys are too funny! The rides were fun. Thanks for taking us along. :)
When ever I see you guys have a new video up it puts a 😃 smile on my face.
You give us so much to look forward to in the van life style, we all had a 👍 great day with you thanks for letting us in.(By the way I was helping you gripping & hold on to the camera)😄😀 keep them coming!!
I'd much rather sleep in my own rv or van ( even if it was just on an air mattress in a cargo van) than risk bedbugs. I had to deal with them a few years back, not sure who they hitch hiked in with, and it took us 6 months or spraying and we had to toss 2 mattresses, 1 old sofa, and finally had to pull up the carpeting (it really needed to go anyway) Now I am super bed bug paranoid when ever I go to a hotel, and will not stay at a cheaper motel.
I wish I could travel around in a class B like that. Keep up the good videos. 👁♠🕵
OK, I'm a little jealous about the trip to Disneyland, I'm not gonna lie. So far, Kara and I have been to Disney World and to Disneyland Paris. Bucket list: Go to all of 'em worldwide!
I loved watching you both on the rides. I laughed and smiled seeing your reactions. Happy 12th Anniversary. Happy Anniversary Song.....!!
when i watch you tube i dont want to watch ads i always skip but when i found that you can earn a couple dollar to watch the ads i always watch or run coz i know the pain reliever of your baby leo is expensive thank you for showing your baby all the time
We were in disneyland last year on this day for my daughters 15th birthday.. Awesome video
I was watching a "new" RV channel today & he was showing us how to cook the mean he was about to have, when he sat down to have the meal & watch RUclips, guess who he started watching!!!

That was sure fun watching a fan of someone I enjoy too!
I thought the best part was when you (Joe) were riding the roller coaster. I could feel the intensity sooo much watching your faces feeling the G forces. I almost felt like I was on the ride with you! lol Great job filming that! I was a little concerned that you might drop your camera but you must of held on tight! :)
That was so awesome, I love watching people ride the amusement rides....
Great to see you have so much fun! Thanks for the smiles!
What a hoot!!! Looks like a great day!!! Thank you for sharing.
Rolling suit case. Never thought of that. Stayed at disneyland hotel. it was ickie. .....RV is the way to go. Thanks for another great vlog.
Yeah Disneyland. And California Adventure. I could live there.
loved this video - looks like a very happy day for you both! Happy anniversary for yesterday from UK!
I LOVE Disney!!! I've been to Disney World in Florida several times. The first time in 1978 when all they had was the Magic Kingdom.

Yikes, this vicarious living thing just got taken to a whole new level... LOL... thanks for the epic coaster ride :D
omg....I remember that roller coaster ride....fun but I felt the G forces at certain points....OOOOHHHHHHHHH!!
I found your vlogs and have been catching up on your old vlogs but have been inspired lately by yourselves and other vloggers to just get out there!! Ordering a new Campervan in the new year plus I’ve just ordered your paperback from Amazon too.. I have no doubt it will be a great read and informative 👍🏻

If you put a gardening knee pad (made of nerf type material, very light) in your backpack, against your back, you won't feel the lumpiness. Works great!
I'd wish I'd known you were "in the neighborhood" - I live less than a mile from Disneyland, and I would have loved to have met you guys!
Love your videos! Please include cooking/meal ideas. Cook book soon?
OMG! You guys are so brave. I have never been on a roller coaster and have no intention of ever getting on one🤢 But it was nice tagging along virtually. Glad you had such a great time. 🎢 😃
Thanks for "going on the ride" with us :)
Enjoyed this video! We're Disney nuts! We are thinking of doing an older van camper conversion next time. Our 37 ft. travel trailer limited too much!
I had dinner at Club 33 back in the early 90's when the park was only open to employees. It wasn't that exciting.
I was inclined towards the lexor ts from pleasure way. My mind was set!🤔 then I checked the hymer....thanks to u guys ! We have a cat and the lexor would give us great personal comfort....but not for the cat! She will need a litter box and that space u have under the bed..Aweaome👍👍. Gotta think about the furballs too. It's also a beautiful van . Love it.
+Joe Garagozzo Hey Joe. The area under the bed makes a huge difference and more importantly, Leo loves it. Let us know what you end up with.
We're the Russos yes I will! Leo is such a cool pup. And that's the whole point. We can see him comfortable so I would see no issues for a cat. Happy safe travels guys.
I really appreciate you sharing yoir videos,I'm learning so much anout the van life....
No hands on the wheel. Awesome!
btw: Just received my paper back copy of your book. I picked it up from the Post Office today. It looks great and I'm looking forward to reading your story :)
We love Disney too! Cars is probably our favorite ride out of all the parks including the ones at Walt Disney World. Good job holding onto that camera during the coaster ride👐.

Do you watch Gone with the Wynn's They are in Panama and did a great video where they toured a coffee plantation and got to taste, etc. I think you would enjoy it.
That was an amazing video! It made me want to splurge on a lb of Geisha coffee :)
I'm not even a big coffee fan, but now I want to try some of better coffees. Joe, you definitely have to watch, you will enjoy.
I'm in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada and I was wondering if you travelled into Canadian Land over the last 2 years. Alberta in a great province for travelling near Lake Louise and Banff. If never you want to explore the Capital of Canada you are more than welcome to stay at our house during summer time I guess cause no winter for you guy's.

We are expecting to buy an Hymer Aktiv in the few years or so and that is why we came across you guy's on you tube channel after researching some Hymer on You tube. You are a great inspiration for lifestyle. Cheers
+Michel Allard Hi Michel. We haven't made it to Canada yet but it's on our list. Thank you for the offer to driveway surf, if you don't mind shooting us an email with your contact information we'll reach out when we make it to your area. Thanks!
I love your adventures! Cheap way to travel for me! Lol. Have you ever traveled out of the country with your rv?
How did you get from Flagstaff yesterday to Disneyland today? That is some driving, no wonder you were tired at the beginning of this video.
Hello from Washougal, WA
Roller coaster ride was great. You gave me a big smile😀 Shelley from San Diego
Happy anniversary!!! Great video!! I haven't been able to go to the parks for the past two Halloweens so thank you for helping me get my fix ❤️👻🎃
Awesome video, as always. Happy Anniversary! 🎈🎉💐
What and awesome video. Living my dreams thru your videos. Thank you
proud to be one of YOUR 50K
Again a great video ... thx Guys. Just hoping you could do another session on little tips and tricks for living in the Aktiv (as an Aktiv 1.0 owner) - for example the towel holder. Any ideas you have for improving maneuverability would be greatly appreciated!
That's a good idea and we're trying to work things into each video. Maneuverability? We don't have any issues with it so not something we're looking to improve. The only "upgrade" we want is 4x4 but you can't do that on the Promaster.
We're the Russos Thanks. I meant maneuverability within the van/ease of use when doing daily routines in the van. Also looking forward to you guys making your rounds in Canada! You are welcome to hang out on our drive anytime - just give a heads up! (Maybe another book - this time across Canada?)
I LOVED THE HUNTED HOUSE THAT WAS MY FAVORITE :)
Another great blog guys , how about updating kate and dumping the waste ? See you next week 😀
Great video, see you next Wed
Great vid again guys. 👍
Happy 12th anniversary to a sweet lovely couple❣️I enjoyed watching your great fun footage. Stay blessed🙏🏽
very Nice to see your video, keep up the good ideas. Congrats
Awesome ride happy anniversary You two🎉🎊👻🤹🏻♂️I really enjoy you journey.
I love you guys! So much fun! I can't wait until we have the chance to take our gang to one of these parks! I can't believe you hung on to your camera on that roller coaster!! What did the ride operator think??
I hope you guys are going to be at the Vegas RV show on Nov 6th. I really love your class B and I am strongly considering in getting one. Have fun and enjoy Disneyland!
Probably not...when we looked it up, it looks like an industry only event or did we miss something?
You probably are right. But I am going to check it out since I live here in Vegas anyway. I am really excited to see a real Hymer and see the real McCoy. All the dealers here in Vegas like to push a lot of Class A and Class C stuff. I am going to try to see one of my contacts at Johnnie Walker's RVs to sneak me in or get an industry pass to get an up front look. Thank you and you have made me fell motivated about purchasing the Hymer. By the way I have a question? How much did you folks put down and where did you get your Hymer? I might just road trip out of my state when I get more vacation time to the nearest dealer that sells the Hymer. Thank you I enjoy your videos and make me understand. Is your books also available in Barnes and Noble also?
Just bought the Kindle version of your book Joe.
Thank you for sharing your day...
I'm also gonna order your new book and ask for you to autograph it for me and my daughter if we do meet some day!
BR, Lloyd
lol the mayo packet was so random
You would never get me in the roller coaster! Fun place!
Amazing video, I can’t wait to buy a van
that was fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuun.
love the Halloween stuff.
let's hang out! would love to bring our dogs to a dog beach in laguna beach or maybe down in San Diego!
Happy Halloween! Love the video thanks fo sharing!👹👍🏻❤️
Love your videos, ever thought about traveling out of the USA, Central and South América perhaps?
We've done a lot of international travel in the past but we are doing this now to spend more time with our dog. Once he's gone, we'll go back overseas.
where did you put your back pack while on the rides?
Very true guys very true keep up the good work👋😇🙏🙏🙏
Have you guys looked at the off grid 4×4
I would like to know what you think
+Jammy Kuck hey Jammy. We've looked at quite a few 4x4 vans and some of our favorites are by Sportsmobile ruclips.net/video/poVtY4toyfg/видео.html
I really enjoy your videos and your travels I understand about your dog problems because I had my dog put down this last year but I what my question is you said that you're renting or leasing your class B until the end of the year what is your plans for living and your travel plans
Happy Anniversary :)
I have a question which is a little off topic of this video.. ..but you did mention changing the filter at the beginning. Just wondering about your Berkey. Is it a full size or the travel size? How often do you replace your filter?
Thanks Rhonda. We have the travel size amzn.to/2i8hY2C and recently replaced the black filters after 4 years.
We're the Russos. Thanks :) How do you know when they need to be replaced?
Good Video. Happy anniversary. So are you really sold on a van vs class A? Tks
Can I ask you two a question? When at Disneyland or DisneyWorld, how old would you think you were, if you didn't already know your age? Really cool video...gave me an slight endorphin rush too 😃👍😎
Do you mean...how old did we feel or when did we first go there?
We're the Russos Let me put it this way. Looking at you guys on that Roller Coaster, I thought you were in your mid teens...not your 30's lol! How old would you guys say you were riding on that bad boy? Whenever im at Disney, I think im 12...and I KNOW IM 57 😂😂
LOL we were definitely teenagers riding that coaster
We're the Russos #TrulyAMagicalKingdom
Did you leave Leo with family?
Glen Littlefield at his mother's house
Like to purchase the berkey from your amazon Canada can you post the link to the one you recommend I'm not sure which size I should get. Thanks
Here is the one we have: amzn.to/2gEWmdN It works well for smaller spaces and two people. If you have a bigger, family, etc - look at getting one of the larger sizes.
