This is Brian and Lindsay Copeland from Leesburg, VA. We absolutely love your channel and all your videos!! We hope we can continue to have so much fun and have so many memories after 40 years like you two do. We are coming to Disney in late March/early April and your videos have helped so much with our planning. Maybe there can be some extra Disney magic and we could run into you two and yell out "Well hello Travelers!!!!"
Hay guys welcome to our traveling family. We are just each other’s best friend and would be lost with out each other. We just try to show are experiences. Hope you have a fantastic trip keep us posted you never know we may be able to meet up with you two. Hope your having a wonderful weekend
40 years together that’s awesome. I hope me and Ryan are together that long. We been together for almost 4 years now
It takes some work but she is my best friend. Congratulations on 4 years
Girl…didn’t know you were an NP! So cool. I’m a medical social worker with adults 55 and older. I was in healthcare in psych for 3 plus years, took a break, and then decided to get back into it at the begging of the pandemic. Lots of challenges and sadness. I feel you…hugs ! Good for you, for taking time for you…it’s never to late to restart your current journey or start a new one! Blessings!!
Hi Lawrence! I am enjoying my much needed break. You understand first hand how it can take a toll on you. Our roles work so closely together. I have a long history with home health and have met many great MSW’s. Keep moving forward and thank you for the services you provide!!! - Michelle
I never thought it was a favorite, but we tend to do Big Thunder Mtn first or as one of the first rides every trip. This last trip was the first time our daughter was tall enough and so the first time all of us got to ride together. I laughed the entire ride between hearing our daughter scream/laugh to constantly slamming into my son as we whipped around the bends.
Congrats on 35 years married! My husband & I celebrate 10 years in May (together 17 years). My poor husband has Mother's Day, our Anniversary, and my birthday all within a week of each other. For our 10 year we decided to head to DL for our first time but decided we couldn't not bring our kids so headed in June after school gets out. Really excited
That’s Michelle’s favorite roller coaster. Congratulations on your 17 years together and 10 years married. I can fill he’s pain. I get three months from April-June seems like every week we’re celebrating something.
Favorite Ride is definitely Pirates!! You guys should do a top 5 table service and a top 5 quick service of your favorite restaurants in Disney!
We are discussing that for a video in the near future. We both dislike the word favorite or best - but we can share our personal choice and why. After we filmed this we talked about how hard it is to compare Apples and Oranges lol. But we will try!!! Thanks so much for being a part of our Traveler Family! - Michelle
I love your videos! Thank you for making me smile after a long work day. My favorite ride has to be Living with the Land. I love to be greeted by quotes from kids while waiting in the queue. I love seeing what horticulture magic Disney has in store.
Melissa thank you so much your kind words. We just love sharing our travels with our traveling family. We love living with the land. I thank I see something new every time. Hope you are having a great week.
You all never fail to amaze us. Always bringing the fun and excitement. I just get all confused where I want to eat on my trip. 😂
Hi Curtis Family! Thank you for your kind words! We get confused as well, to tell you the truth. There are so many wonderful places. Best way is to just decide what your "can't live without" restaurants are and go from there. I don't think any choices are bad choices :) - Michelle
One of my family’s must do attractions is Peter Pans flight in Disneyland. The first time we we ever went to Disneyland and we rode the ride it had some sort of special magic on it that continued with us throughout the rest of the day. Each time we go we always ride it because we don’t feel the same sort of magic without it.
Hi Amanda! I agree with that, I was so shocked how different the rides are between Disneyland and Magic Kingdom. That's so wonderful! Thank you for traveling around with us and hope to see you at Disney World soon! - Michelle
Michelle, I'm so impressed by your credentials and education! That is very impressive. Good for you for taking some time off to enjoy yourself.
Thank you Ashley! It's lifelong learning! I think the pandemic has taught all of us to take time to just live and enjoy life! I am so blessed and thankful to have had Todd in my life and I am really excited to be sharing this adventure with him. I also feel blessed to have such a wonderful Traveler Family, including you, to travel along with us! Thanks so much for your kind words! - Michelle
Favorite classic ride : Jungle Cruise
Favorite new ride : Rise of Resistance
Cutest Ride: Radiator Springs Racers
Love Rise. We absolutely fell in love with Radiator Springs Racers and the whole cars land. Our classic goes to the original Small world in Disneyland I mean it came from the worlds fair. Hopefully one day we can meet up in Disneyland and share a corn dog together…
We are Martha and Rene from Colorado Springs Colorado. We just found your channel and we love it. We will be in Disney World the first week in April so we were doing research on where to go eat. We will be celebrating my husband's 50th birthday and our 28th wedding anniversary this trip. Thank you so much for all your help in deciding where to eat. You both are great.
Hi Marbee! YAY on the upcoming vacation and the celebrations! I wish I could hold at 50 forever! And congratulations on your 28th wedding anniversary! We will add you to the Traveler Board and let us know where you decide to dine? Maybe our paths will cross as we would love to meet you! Thank you so much for traveling along with us! - Michelle
the people mover..always fun to watch the people
We totally agree. The only thing we don’t like is they won’t let you stay on lol. Billy hope you are having a great weekend.
Thanks for the answer to my question (the two parter). Greens--definitely cook with a ham hock thrown in for flavor.
Steven it was our pleasure. So agree with you on the greens. We are from the south and pretty much grew up on greens. I will have to say Michelle makes a mean pot of greens. Hope you have a great week.
Michelle and Todd thank you both for your fantastic videos I love how you also give advise about the best places to sit. And your honest opinion on the food. Its a joy to watch your videos Thank you!
Thank you Patricia for your kind words. We try to pass on all the little tips that we have used throughout the years. We so appreciate you being a part of our Traveler Family! - Michelle
Fun Q&A!! 40 Years together and you seem like you're Newlyweds!!! Congrats!!!!
One of our WDW Traditions is doing Monsters Inc Laugh Floor the 1st time we go to Magic Kingdom. A bunch of times it was the 1st attraction we did on our arrival day, usually in the evening. Our other tradition is my Daughter and I taking a picture in front of the Carousel of Progress sign. We've even made a special MK trip just to take the pic because the weather wasn't conducive the other times at MK for the trip.
Hi Jeff! He truly is my soulmate (also I don't think anyone else could put up with me!) lol. Monster Inc is a great show, I can see why you would choose that! That's a great idea! I bet all of them together is so special. You can see both of you growing and changing - how sweet! We thank you so much for traveling along with us! - Michelle
Outstanding show! Loved hearing your WDW history and the Q&A portion was so much fun.
Love and Aloha from Kaua'i
Dave & Jen
Hi Dave & Jen! Thanks so much! Thanks also for being a part of our Traveler Family. We will add your name to our Traveler Board and will show the last Sunday of March! Aloha! - Michelle
My favorite ride is right behind you guys - EVEREST!! It's in my favorite park, beautifully decorated (even in the queue), and a happy medium between a kiddie coaster and one with loops which I can't handle haha A close 2nd and 3rd are Spaceship Earth and Soarin'!
And I'm totally with you on loving NYC! I grew up about 2 hours from there, and went back just last week for Elton John's last-ever show at Madison Square Garden. It really is such a special place 🍎
Marisa I couldn’t agree more. Everest is so greatly themed and so well designed. Your other two choices are high on our list also. Thanks so much for being part of our traveling family. Hope you have a great week.
I agree…Ale & Compass! We just discovered this hidden little gem a couple trips ago…chocolate waffles for breakfast and Vermont cheddar burger for lunch/dinner and the truffle fries with that shallot aioli is to die for and is a must! I miss the brunch though…I could get the waffles and the truffle fries! 🤤😊
It is one of our favorites and have done numerous vlogs on it we love it so much. Live that the buffet is back. The flat breads at lunch and dinner are fantastic. Hope you have a great week
This is a great place to eat! I’ve eaten almost everything on the menu and everything is delicious. Great video!
Hi Robert! So glad you enjoyed it! The ribs were super good! Thanks so much for your kind words and thanks for being a part of our Traveler Family! - Michelle
You two are great!!! Who knew you were meant to be in front of a camera??😍
But if I ever make it back to Disney, how could I ever choose places to eat??? You give so many to choose from! Keep it up!
We just figured we might as well share our travels with the whole world lol. Thank you so much for becoming part of our traveling family.
Love the pic of you two as teens! Thanks for sharing
Hi Karen! Thanks for the kind words - that was a blast from the past! Thank you for traveling around with us, we really appreciate it. - Michelle
I just love your videos! You two make my day. In answer to your question, my favorite ride is Peter Pan. There is just something about gliding overtop of London that gives me goosebumps. You didn't ask this, but you answered this question so I will give you my answer to the question my favorite meal. Hands down my favorite dish the Gnocchi Sea/Gnocchi Do at Raglan Road. I picked Raglan Road due to a review of that particular dish. I had to have it, so I planned RR to be my 40th birthday dinner (10 years ago). Well, from the time I booked the restaurant until we went, they had stopped making the dish. I was so disappointed. I emailed RR and she told me to keep the reservation. We showed up, they had reserved us a table right next to the stage, and the chef made that dish specifically for me. Nobody else that night. It was incredible. They have put it back on the menu and I have had it twice after since that meal. I would eat it every day if I could. was a cupcake I had from Roaring Fork. It was a strawberry cupcake, strawberry buttercream, and lemon curd in the middle. That was 8 years ago and I still dream about it. If I had to pick an appetizer, it would be the ahi tuna nachos from Yak &Yeti. Will be there in a few months for my 50th birthday. Wondering if anything will unseat my favorite food.
Hi Denise! Great choice in Peter pan! Interesting about the Gnocchi Sea/gnocchi Do...We will add that to our try list. It sounds delicious from the description. (Handmade potato gnocchi, seared Foleys Georges Bank scallops, crispy pork belly, tomatoes and kale in a white wine butter sauce) Yum! I have heard that before about the ahi tuna nachos at Yak & Yeti. I will be anxious to see if you pick some new favorites! Let us know! - Michelle (Happy Birthday early btw!!!)
Where do we start… first of all, you made Kiras night! Thank you for your beautiful words❤️Absolutely loved this video! The photo of the two you is adorable 😍 Loved each and every question and answer, you guys truly have a wonderful love story. Wow 40 yrs coming up, amazing! Congrats ❤️My fave ride is Soarin, just love being up there with all the smells. Kiras fave ride is The Pirates of the Carribbean. Todd, Kira said she’ll go on Everest with you, i don’t do coasters so i’ll stay with Michelle and eat 😂😂 actually we can go on Spaceship Earth, can’t wait to ride rides that Disneyland doesn’t have like FOP, thats the one we’re most excited about!
Hi Dina! We hope Kira had a wonderful birthday! Thank you so much for being a part of our Traveler Family! I LOVE Soarin, even though I am afraid of heights. I agree, the smells are amazing! The ride plan sounds great to me. I went on Everest once just to say I did. lol. Flight of Passage was amazing. See you soon! - Michelle
@@TravelingAroundDisney Hey Michelle i’m scared of heights too lol. First time i ever went on Soarin and they lifted us up i almost had a heart attack 😆Looking forward to your next review, have a great week 💕
Great video . Enjoyed your answers,. So thrilled to see my name on your board- it made me smile. 👏🏻👏🏻
Ann thank you so much for being a part of our traveling family and for all your support. It was our pleasure adding you to our travelers map. Glad you enjoyed the video and we hope you have a wonderful weekend..
I really enjoyed the video. Flame tree ribs are always a go to for me.
*Pirates of the Caribbean is my favorite. It was one of the first rides that I rode in Disney when I was around 4yrs. old (1978) and I thought it was amazing. It's been my favorite ever since.
Hi Matthew! Thanks so much for your kind words! Yes, the ribs were delicious! Awww Pirates is a great ride and at four years old would make an impression! That's a great choice! Thanks for being a part of our Traveler Family "matey"! -Michelle
Michelle,
On a side note, I just wanted to personally thank you for your service as an N.P. My wife has been an RN for 8 years now and has worked in the E.R. her entire career. This pandemic has taken a toll on so many health care workers. My mother was an R.N. for 50 years and luckily retired a year before COVID. She worked most of her career in home health care and many of her patients were also seniors. I just retired on 2/02/22 after 25+ years in law enforcement. Watching you guys is definitely a stress reliever.
Thanks again,
Matt Loughman
I absolutely loved this video!! I always get excited when you guys put up a new video and this week we got three 🙌🏻 thank you for all you do! So much fun traveling around with you all!
We are so happy you enjoyed this one. We loved making it and answering some of the travelers questions. Sorry it was a little long but it was just so fun to do. Hope you had a great weekend. P.S. we will be three times a week going forward and May throw in a 4th one in a while
@@TravelingAroundDisney ohhhh yay!!! I am so happy to hear there will be three a week going forward!! That's very exciting!! I don't mind them being longer videos at all 😊
I swear Animal Kingdom is always 20 degrees hotter every day than the other parks. 😂🤣
Best App - Tiffins Bread Service at Nomad Lounge
Best Entree - Fried Chicken at Flo’s in DCA
Best dessert - Bread Pudding at Raglan’s
I agree it’s always hotter there. Bread service is fantastic. Haven’t had that chicken but 50’s prime time is so good. Yes Raglans is great but I would give the edge to the house of blues. Next time you are down my friend we will try them both lol…
Our favorite ride is Soaring for sure 🙂 Maybe not considered a ride but it is our favorite 🙂
Oh soaring is def ya ride and a great one at that. I just love the feeling of flying on that ride. Thanks so much for traveling along with us and being part of our traveling family. Hope you have had a fantastic weekend.
Flan is my absolute favorite!!! Fun video.
Yes this I know lol…
I love your videos °o° My favorite rides at DL: are Peter Pan, Dumbo, Indiana Jones, Pirates, Casey Junior, Snow White, Small World, and Buzz. DCA: Soarin’! DAK: FOP! MK: People Mover. EP: Spaceship Earth DHS: MRR °o° Last but not least, the Skyliner!
We just love everything about Disneyland and can’t wait to go back. The people mover is a favorite here at Disney World. I could ride the skyliner all day…
Hi Michelle and Todd!
We loved this video ❤️
We have to give Flame Tree BBQ a try, can’t believe we’ve never been there.
The ribs looked really tasty 😋
Our favorite ride is Peter Pan 😍
💯 Ale and Compass hands down is our favorite place as well 👍🏻
Thank you so very much for creating this channel and welcoming us to your family 🤗🤗
Hi Ale J! Thanks so much for your kind words! Yes it is worth a try, the ribs are delicious. I love Peter Pan too and I was shocked to find out the Disneyland version is so much different. Have you had the chance to ride that one? Yes for Ale and Compass it is a good all around dining location for sure! This is our channel - you and all the rest of the Traveler Family and we love that you are a part of it! - Michelle
@@TravelingAroundDisney
We haven’t been to Disneyland yet, but we would love to go 🏰
Honestly it’s my favorite park. Just so different then the Magic Kingdom-Todd
Such a great video! Loved hearing all those questions and answers. Thank you for continuing to share your experiences with us…the traveler family keeps growing! That picture of the two of you was fantastic.😊
Hi My Friend! Thanks for your kind words! Wasn't that picture a blast from the past? I don't know what got into all of us that we thought we had to dress up to go to Disney. Back then everyone did! Now some wear a bathing suit top and short shorts. lol I'm old enough to say "My how the times have changed!" lol Have a great week!!! - Michelle
Loved hearing about your Disney experiences. I'm an ER nurse/nursing professor - it has been a trying time. You guys are so fun - keep the vlogs coming. 😎🥰
Thank you so much for your support and encouragement. Past two years have definitely taken a toll on our healthcare workers. We will continue to share our travels and we hope you have a great weekend..
Hi @jlmomrn! So Glad to hear your an ER nurse/nursing professor. I so respect your abilities. Sadly, I think I am done with nursing. I have had nothing but heartache the whole way through. I love school, don't get me wrong, but the actual practical part of nursing and dealing with all that comes with practicing has just left me drained. I'm sending you all my good thoughts and wishes for a safe, successful, career! Hang in there! - Michelle
@@TravelingAroundDisney Michelle I totally hear you and understand how much everything has drained all of us in nursing. I am sending you hugs and best wishes. I still love what I do - but there have been many moments lately that I find myself wondering. Keep up your vlogging - I am really enjoying you both. I love Todd's enthusiasm and your honesty in your reviews. I am hoping to start vlogging again soon. You guys might be inspiring me.
We have such a great time doing it. We do it to capture moments to share with our travelers and we’ll as our kids and maybe grandkids in the future. We think that would be fantastic if you started again. Let us know what ever we can do to help…
im so behind trying to get back to real life after wdw trip and marathon great video and food review and 40 yrs together how awesome and to 40 more years
No worries enjoy the videos. Just wanted to say again just how much of a great time at dinner with you. Hope you have a great week
@@TravelingAroundDisney agree the dinner itself might not have been amazing but the laughs and conversation was great o and by the way i have a video interview sunday with the wd company..fingers crossed
Awesome video it was great learning more about you guys! Our favourite ride is Pirates of the Caribbean & have rode it in Disneyland Paris, Walt Disney World & Disneyland California x
Hi Angela! That's amazing. I'm so jealous about Disneyland Paris! One of these days we may get there. Thanks so much for being a part of our Traveler Family! - Michelle
LOVED THIS VIDEO! You guys are adorable
Thank you so much I guess after 40 years we play off of each other well. She truly is the love of my life and best friend. Hope you are having a great weekend..
My husband loves flan! It’s so hard now to do spur of the moment. We live in Ft Myers and have a hard time getting anything reasonably priced now. We rent DVC points now to come twice a year for a week, and then sporadic weekends, and so far we’ve gotten pretty good bargains that way.
It is Michelle’s and my mother in law’s favorite dessert. I make it singe serving Masson jars in with our sous vide wand and it comes our perfect every time. Ya I definitely see more DVC stays in our future. Do you go through any certain DVC rental places???
Love flame tree definitely a favorite. I want to try that pulled pork Mac and cheese. I grew up with Disney and I hope to pass it down to Amelia. Haunted mansion is my favorite but I do space mountain.
This was so long ago. Definitely need to get back for another review. Hope your having a great week
So many great places to eat at AK, but Flame tree is on our list for September. Will you folks be doing a top 5 any time soon? Top 5 Quick service, table service, snacks, drinks etc?
Hi Aaron! We have plans to incorporate things like that into our videos. There are so many good things! We do appreciate you being a part of our traveler family and look out for that top 10 coming soon! - Michelle
We are booked for Animal Kingdom for Thanksgiving this year, we know all parks will be extremely busy but hoping we can get food here at Flame Tree! It all looks fabulous!
Donald is my No1 character & Dinosaur 🦖 is my favourite ride! 😁
Great to learn some more things about you both! Loved the photo at the end! 👍🏼👍🏼
Hi Sue! That's awesome about Animal Kingdom. I don't think Kite Tails gets the love it deserves. It is cute and very pretty with the Florida skies backdrop. Dinosaur is terrifying lol. I don't think I have ever got through the whole thing with my eyes open. Thanks for traveling around with us! - Michelle
What a great video! Thank you all so, so much for your videos and reviews. I live in Kansas City, Missouri, and average a trip to WDW every five years or so. Your videos help all things Disney seem not so far away.
Angie you are so welcome. Glad you get a bit of the Magic from our videos. Hope you have a great week and would you like us to the travelers board??
@@TravelingAroundDisney I would love to be added to your travelers board! Kansas City, Missouri - specifically Grandview, MO (on the south side very near to the Kansas state line). Thank you so much!
Angie we will be glad to add you. It will be on the months end recap…
Hope you two are having a great weekend. Nikki says her fave rides are runaway railway and haunted mansion and as for myself i love too many and cannot pick one so I am going to just say Disney Springs 🤭
Hay you two hope your weekend was great!!! Nikki those are two great picks and Toby you can’t beat Disney Springs. Hope you to have a great week.
@@TravelingAroundDisney You were such a cute couple then and you're a cute couple now! Thank you for letting us see a little glimpse of your life outside of Disney
-Nikki
🥰🤗love the photo
That was a fun video to make. We need to do another Q and A for sure..
loved the q&a yall are so pleasant to watch!! love
Thank you it was a fun thing to do. Hopefully in the future we can do more. So glad you are part of our traveling family.
@@TravelingAroundDisney of course keep it up!! remember us little people when yall own disney lol
I haven’t been to Flame Tree in forever! It was fun to watch this Q and A...have you considered another one in the near future?
Best part about this location is the food is good but the seating is wonderful. Some of the best views of Everest. Have a great weekend
Hi Todd and Michelle! Melanie and Mario Garcia from Newark, NJ. We were hoping to be added to your board. We'll also be down there in April and are hoping we'll run into you. Love your vlogs! You're such a sweet couple!
We will be glad to add you you to our travelers board and welcome to the family. Have a great trip in April. Keep us updated and we would love to meet you two. Have a great week.
My favorite ride is the safari
Fantastic choice. I love when the animals get close to the trucks. Thanks for traveling along with us.
Hello, my mom & dad & my family are new travelers. We’re from Shorewood, IL, a suburb south of Chicago. We love watching all of your videos. Can’t wait to try some new restaurants. We’re DVC members at Old Key West and planning our Family May 2023 trip at Animal Kingdom. We’ll have 12 of us. Any recommendations for a large group?
Hi Juliann! We would recommend calling 407-wdw-dine and they can assist you with larger dining reservations. A heads up that the tables are not able to be moved at the outdoor seating for Flame Tree. We watched a family try to sit 8 people and they ended up at two tables a little apart from each other. In Pandora, at Satuli canteen there are moveable tables and the outside seating can easily accommodate all 12 together. You may just have to pick a few family members (table scouts) to standby and acquire the tables. lol. We hope you have a magical time and maybe we will get to meet you! -Michelle
I like that you answer the questions but just a little heads up you should have put it in the title to get more people maybe that only thought it was a food review to tune in to hear your answers and questions just a thought thanks for the video though
Thanks for the recommendation. We went back and added the Q & A to the title. Hope you enjoyed and had a great weekend..
@@TravelingAroundDisney thank you I am we're watching your video right now. Hope you're enjoying your weekend as well.
It’s been a great one.
Just curious was your bakery a high-scaled commercial bakery or was it more like a corner mom-and-pop type of bakery. Thanks
We had our bakery for a year. It was just me and Michelle it was very small scale. It was a great experience and very successful but we learned quick that it owned you because of the custom cakes and bakery items we did.
Flame Tree Barbecue is not like it used to be. Food was bland when we went last year. Pretty disappointing to say the least. What wasn't disappointing was this video, loved the q&a. #r.i.p.peterpanfloat.
Hi Denice Michelle - Yeah, Todd said the price was because it was in a theme park, but yikes, we already paid a bunch for the ticket to get in. Thanks for traveling along with us and we so appreciate the kind words. I really miss that float - it was sooo good! - Michelle
