Who are Todd and Michelle?
Watch our very first video here: âą Traveling Around Disne...
We are Floridians, Foodies, and most of all Disney lovers that are beginning our retirement journey and have chosen to retire close to all the Disney magic. We invite you to travel around Disney with us as we share our adventures living right behind all the magic and travel (mainly eat) our way around Walt Disney World.
Our GOAL is to eat at every restaurant, quick service, and food cart located on Walt Disney World's property. We are documenting our adventure for our family, our new traveler family and anyone else that may enjoy all that Walt Disney World has to offer. We look forward as always to sharing our adventures and as we say here at Traveling Around Disney, Travel and Adventure... is out there!!!

Thank you so much for taking us along! đ€đ€
Hi again Ale! They were all so great this time! Thanks so much for traveling around with us! - Michelle
Youâre growing, because youâre good at what you do! Thank you! Great job going solo.
Hi Mary Beth! Thank you so much for your kind words! I wonder if I'll ever feel "comfortable". Probably not lol. Thanks so much for traveling around with us! - Michelle
You both are doing an amazing job on your videos this year! Thanks for sharing your Disney love with us.
Hi @Norm Fossmeyer Thanks so much for the support and encouragement. Without you out there for support we wouldn't feel near as comfortable as we do bringing the Magic to you. We truly appreciate you! - Michelle
Another amazing video from you!!!!
She did a fantastic job and getting more comfortable in front of the camera.
Hi Michelle and Todd- Thank you for your genius idea of cutting the side of the zip lock!! đ Appreciate the honest reviews!! Have a Great Week!
Theresa Michelle always comes up with great ideas like that. I definitely married up. Have to be honest because this stuff can get pricey. We hope you are having a wonderful week
The food looked so good , as always. Thanks for a great video. You guys always brighten my day.
Hi Matt! Thanks so much and we give it a good college try! Just trying to send a little magic your way! Hope everything is good your way! Hope to see you all soon! - Michelle
I loved your video today, you did a great job!
Hi Jessica! Thanks so much and we thank you for traveling around with us! - Michelle
Me and the wife just sitting here watching and really enjoying your video. You guys do an amazing job. Thank you for the hard work to show us the amazing things in around Disney. Iâm just glad we found your channel when we did. †#proud to be fellow travelers
Hi Curtis Family! Thanks so much! We try hard to bring just a little magic into your homes. We are so glad you invite us into yours! We are so glad you found us and we so appreciate everything you do for us! - Michelle
Wonderful video
Hi Jessica! Thanks so much. We are so glad to have you as a part of our Traveler Family! - Michelle
Those freeze dried skittles are all the rage in all the festival vloggers videos! Iâll have to order some from Amazon! Thanks for letting us know we can buy them there!
Hi @S Stypa! Are they? Probably because they are so much better than what they are on! lol Yes. Kind of expensive though. But I love them better than regular skittles. I've always wanted my own freeze drier lol. Maybe I'll get one, one of these days. Thanks so much for traveling around with us! - Michelle
Now Iâm so super excited to try the crab. I loved all 3 items from Deconstructed Dish last year. Weâll be in the parks in 5 days and in EPCOT next Monday and Thursday and thereâs so many foods to try on my list. I canât wait! Thanks for showing us around.
Hi @julie gorman YES! Could you see I was a little shocked. All the dishes were great this time. Maybe we will bump into each other! The crab and especially the papaya salad is a must try! - Michelle
Bummed Iâll miss this festival but Iâll be there for Flower and Garden. Great video Michelle! Iâm here for Epcot vibes in a Monday đ
Hi Amber! Yay about going to Flower and Garden! Thanks so much for your kind words. Hope to see you at the flower and garden festival! - Michelle
I was sure Todd worked at Contemporary Resort. Lol. Just shows i need to pay more attention. X
I do work at the contemporary and also work with Greg McCullough at the art festival.
I feel the same way about recording myself as you do!! But you do amazing!! And you found the Skittles!! I'm planning to buy some...the addiction is becoming real đ also side note, I want to say how incredibly thoughtful you are and how you try not to post when people are sleeping, truly more thoughtful than anyone else I've come across..you guys are quickly becoming one of our favorite vloggers!!
Sami thank you so much for all the kind words in your post. They mean so much to me and Michelle. We just try to be who we are on camera as we are in life. We are so thankful you are part of our traveling family and all your kind words. Hope you have had a great week
Great job Michelle! Loved the âhere have a biteâ bit đ€Łfantastic view of the fireworksđ thinking we might have to do this festival too đYou two are too cuteâ€ïž
Hi @Dina and Kira! I wished you could have taken a bite! lol It was a great location because you could actually sit down. Miss you guys! - Michelle
@@TravelingAroundDisney Miss you lots too! Kira loves salted caramel so she would of happily taken a bite or two lol!
Glad to see you giving the food another try, since the last video, you looked frustrated and food wasnât going your way!
The French onion soup looked good! The empanada looked delicious, too. I too, like a little heat, in fact used to eat jars of jalapeños.
We, too love Japan, actually had the privilege travelling to Tokyo! Went to Disneyland and Disney SEAS, which if you and Tod have an opportunity to go, you should take it!
I agree with you Michelle, I too am not a fan of artificial sugar in a dole whip!
We watched Todâs art video yesterday, in fact my hubby commented, because we met one of the artistâs Tod knows. We bought two of his prints and the artist signed both of them for us. I bought the Winnie the Pooh and we bought the Mickey Mouse riding a star pod racer, I guess heâs supposed to be a young Anekin Skywalker.
Coming from Maryland, I grew up eating soft shell crab sandwiches, steamed crabs and especially crab cakes! Love me any crabs, which ever way it comes!
Again thank you for your vlog, you did a great job, Michelle! Love your honest reviews of the food!
Hi Donna! Yes, of course! I wasn't going to let my first visit discourage me. All the dishes I tried this time were great. Ok about the empanada - you would probably not even notice the spice! It was a kind of spice that was exaggerated by the warmth of the dish. It was actually steaming inside. So good! Ah, I'm so jealous about traveling to Tokyo. That is on our bucket list - maybe one day! Ah yes, I know those paintings and I love them! I love art in general. I love crab legs so I really didn't think the soft shell crab would be too far from that. It was much more subtle than I thought it would be. They must have been fresh and they were prepared well! AND HOT! lol Thanks so much for the kind words and I really appreciate that! Have a great week! - Michelle
Michelle. I really enjoy your videos. When you try a food itâs like I can see the wheels turning in ur head deciphering the flavors. You not only tell us if u like it but explain what flavors u r picking up. I really appreciate that.
Hi Mary! lol I have to do that because we all know Todd loves everything Disney! I have to balance him out! Thanks so much for traveling around with us! - Michelle
You did a great job !!!!!!
Hi @joey misko ! Thanks so much for the kind words! We appreciate you traveling around with us! - Michelle
Always enjoyable to see you. I would try the onion dish.
She definitely did a great job. She said it was really good but I would probably pass.
Michelle, you did a great job as usual. Not fond of roasted chestnuts and I have never had Skittles. Loved this video.
Hi again! lol and thanks so much. OMG no skittles?? I ordered some freeze dried ones, You can try those when we see you lol. They are the best! -Michelle
Great vlog guys! Michelle with the exception of the rainbow cake the food portion sizes look extremely generous compared to the food & wine festival, do you think? I would love to do this festival one year †thanks for taking us along đđŒ xx
Hi Sue! Yes, I thought so too. And the cake should have been the cheapest thing to make so go figure. I wish the food was more artsy though - especially since it's an art festival. Thanks so much for being a part of our traveler family! - Michelle
Todd, I agree with you. I really enjoy Harmonious as well, but they used a lot of songs from Happily Ever After, which is my absolute favorite so I'm happy to at least get that back if Harmonious has to go. Michelle, you did a great job. I feel like people, especially at Disney World should be used to people recording themselves if not for a vlog then for TikTok or some other social media. Have a great week guys!
Hi Lindsey! My personal opinion is that they sort of had the grand finale in the middle of the show. If you watch the fireworks, the end seems to be mildly disappointing because it's not larger than you have already seen. Does that make sense? If the ending had been larger I think peoples opinions would be different. Just a theory! lol thanks so much for traveling around with us and hope you have a great week also! - Michelle
Another great video :) That cake size looked disappointing⊠especially in relation the picture. You were very brave trying the đŠ. Wish we could try those freeze dried skittles⊠they donât seem to sell them anywhere in the UK. Canât wait for the next video :)
Hi Lynn Lee! Thanks so much for the kind words! Yes wasn't it? We can get a slice of rainbow cake at our local grocery store and its three times as big (and more delicious I may add). I can say that here because Todd isn't listening lol. Ah really about the freeze dried skittles? Do you not have an Amazon type online store? If it didn't cost an arm and a leg I would send a bag to you! Thanks so much for traveling around with us! - Michelle
@@TravelingAroundDisney hehe. I can always tell you want to say just a little bit more than you do on the video :p yes we have Amazon but they donât sell the same things. There are loads of foodie things we canât get in the UK. We canât even get caramel M&Ms⊠itâs an outrage! xx
Just a heads up you put February 23rd just thought I'd mention it thanks for the video guys.
Will you guys be hear so we can share a meal together???
@@TravelingAroundDisney you put February 23rd in your video about the shopping, but we won't be there till May 6th thru 19th, I will be messaging you our dining reservations as soon as we have them so you guys can decide where you want to join us.
Ok now I see lol.
