Hi, we are Stephen, Jess, Hunter and baby Koa - an Australian family who have had quite the journey. After travelling the world as a couple in 2020 we had our very first baby, we then spent the following year self-converted a van before moving into it full-time to drive around Australia. Cut to 2023 we welcomed our second child Koa into the world before resuming full-time travel around the world.

0:00 Intro
Hey everyone!! Thanks so much for your kind words on our little 2 part Disney series (so sorry the last vlog got marked as "Made for Kids" which we disputed and it unfortunately didn't help) which meant all your absolutely incredible comments (seriously some of the nicest we have ever received) got archived :( but we read every single one of them and it made us smile so much! Thanks again for all your support we really appreciate it!
I think Hong Kong Disney next? We are going in a few months and looked for your video on it. My son Cooper loves watching Hunter, and names all his new toys Hunter and baby Koa. Thanks for the great videos.
How sweet was Hunter telling Pluto someone was behind him! Helping the other child get attention. So special! 🩷🥰
hehe those 2 ended up playing together for the rest of breakfast!
@@flyingthenest 🥰
I noticed how much more brave Koa is about the Disney characters coming up to him at this age than Hunter was at his age. Having a big sis hugging on them helps quite a bit I’m sure.
We live a few miles from Route 66 in OKC! I liked the theme area you videod with the music from 50’s & 60’s, cars and shops too! 😊
hehe its exposure therapy hahaha
“And a cuddle” 😍😍
That was too cute.
hehe aww i know!!!!
@@flyingthenestClam chowder is American and was invented in New England. If you want the best clam chowder in the world then go to New England not Ireland or Finland. 😊
The kids are lucky to have big kids for mom and dad. I don’t know who is more excited Jesse or Hunter.
hehe! gotta have fun here!
Jess I think is more excited!
RIP Balloon 🤣
Great video as always/ Koa's expressions always make me chuckle, bless him x
🤣🤣
Stevens laugh on that last roller coaster is priceless!!!
And Hunter is way braver than I am at 39.. I wouldn't go in half those rides, at least not without hyperventilating the whole time I'm in line and then closing my eyes for the whole ride. Lol I'm a lot fun at theme parks if you can't tell.
hahaha when the giggle begins...
Steven’s childlike joyful laugh never gets old. Precious family ✝️🙏🏼🥰
haha when he gets that giggle going...
I love the proposal! When we were there in the fall I told my husband that would be the cutest place to do a proposal instead of the castle 😍
aww i know it made the day extra special watching the proposal! it looked like they were cast members (on their day off) and I would've gussed maybe they met there// spent alot of their time together in Carsland because it seemed like a special spot there PLUS there was a bunch of cast members around hanging afterwards with them!
A proposal in public place, with public around you, always puts pressure on the one being asked I feel. I remember a video in Disneyland, where Disneyland employee ruined the proposal by telling them they can't do it there.
Hunter is the perfect age to enjoy the Disney Theme Parks. Her laugh and squeals of delight were so infectious. In another year Koa will be more into it as well. I love that you were in my old stomping ground. I used to live 15 minutes away from Disneyland and we practically lived there. At 9:00pm during the summer we could see the Disneyland fireworks display from our backyard each night. We are now living in Northern California, and I loved experiencing the park and all of its thrills through your eyes again. Safe travels onward! ✨💕✨
Hundo percent that Hunter is at the perfect age! This 3+ is when the magic really hits and they start getting big enough to go on some of the more fun rides!!
I'm loving the view from the hotel in the park! I live in Los Angeles but have never chose to stay at the park hotel... i'm definitely going to have to try it out one of these days! The look on Hunter's face on some of the rides is so cute!! and much props to Jess for continuing to step out of her comfort zone and try the rides that scare her!
Us too - its too expensive - glad we find Davids club as it makes it the same cost as the surrounding hotels
Dudes, Hunter is such a vibe now she can start her own channel
You are just the sweetest family . You will forever have these memories and Hunter and Koa are so lucky ❤
OMG Hunter and Koa's opposite reactions to the characters was beyond priceless! 😁
Hunter was so brave on that ride! She had her moments of concern, but a lot braver than I was at that age LOL. Chocolate dirt yum!! Your trip to Disney Land really makes me want to go back and play!! I have not been there in a very long time!! I think Golly Gosh is now going to be something I will have to use lol! Yay Jess you did the loop tee loop roller coaster. That is in deed one of my favorites and it is has been av very long time since I have been on it!! I am so proud of you facing your fears and going on it!!
I loved the length of the video!! I'm originally from CA and love Disneyland and watching first timers have so much fun. The look on Jess's face on the rides was awesome! Hunter has become so brave too. Thank you so much for sharing your life and travels with all of us as I watch vicariously through your beautiful family. My weekly treat!
yay!! wasn't sure with the length but it seems so many people are enjoying how long it was!!
Hunters excitement is so infectious, I love watching your little family on vacation 🤗💞
Hahaha it really is!!
So glad you got to experience the lighting ceremony in Cars land! It's so fun and always makes me tear up because it's just a big party of togetherness. 🥹❤
yess!! such a hidden litle treat so glad we caught it!
Koa is the absolute cutest!
i cried a couple of times watching your videos. at first i was experiencing with you about having kids.. enjoy building a family. then see little hunter having so much fun with u it made me think of my childhood. my mom barely take me to parks there was only one time but she hated the whirling thing and cursed me over and over again for wanting to do it... its so precious to see these videos for a traumatized person 🤣
Idk if there’s anyone else who enjoyed watching them eat as much as seeing them enjoy the rides. It’s 2 am where I am and now I’m hungry 🤤 😂
hahaha!
As always, such a wonderful fun vlog..Hunter was adorable and so excited with the Cars rides! I have 2 boys.. they LOVED Cars! The movies are wonderful.. you definitely have to watch them! Both my two boys had "Cars" themed Birthday parties.
Love, love, love all Disney. Loved the series. Doing with Disney with friends is especially fun. So excited to see what your next adventure is going to be.
aww thank you!! it was soo fun doing Disney with friends this time!
Cute little girl likes all the Disney adventures 🥰baby boy is so calm 🥰 beautiful family 🥰
Thanks Susan!
Hunter is just too precious and she's so brave!
hehe shes the best!!
I have to say what a wonderful Group of Friends your with on the trip, i never laughed so much at Steve & Jess zitting next to Bec. “ Screaming “ 😂
I don’t think the pair of you had any voice left 😜.Hunter thats just so attentive to tell Pluto that someone behind him wanted to give him a cuddle 🤍
You are Hunter the most bravest Little Girl going on those Rides (This 60 + old is absolutely petrified of Heights 🫣)
Aww koa slowly getting there with the characters meet & Greet 🤍.
Fantastic video such a amazing park thank you so much for Bringing us a long 🥰 Have a Great week safe travels 🫶.
Brilliant video as always. Made me laugh and smile all the way through.
Hunter is SO BRAVE for her age! I can't believe how many times she put her hands up! I grew up going to the world's most extreme roller coaster park (Cedar Point) every summer, and she is going on thrill rides most kids didn't even think about until probably 8+ years old. Even that tall swing ride is fairly thrilling and has been a lifelong favorite of mine. I'm also shocked how many thrill rides she is tall enough to ride, making me think they must have shrunk the height requirements for these rides since I was a kid!
My favorite Disney Hotel! The perfect location to ride the grizzly river run - get soaking wet and then go back to your room to change!It’s based on the iconic Ahwahnee Hotel in Yosemite National Park. A grand 1920s lodge in a majestic location. Glad you had a great time.
ahh Grizzly run was down for renos :( otherwise we totally wouldve gone on it
Love all your Disney content! 👏🎉
👏🎉 thank you!!
Aww thank you so much for sharing this beautiful family journey with us
aww thanks for your support!!
@@flyingthenest your welcome anytime
Love how you (Jess) were trying to convince yourself about Mickey’s Wheel of Death when you were telling Hunter it was ok! 😂 Boss Mum move!!!
I could watch you guys for hours 😁 Proud of you, Jess! So brave this time❤❤❤
aww thanks Mel!!
Your videos are the best!! I literally smile the whole time watching! 😊😊
aww this is such a lovely comment thank you!!
I so enjoyed this. What fun to see you all enjoy the rides without needing a barf bag. After my first ride on a Ferris Wheel as a child with my mother when I threw up on everyone below us I was banned form the rides. Later with my son who was terrified of the big bad wolf when he was three our movie going was carefully screened. Finally at 11 he was willing to try the haunted house in our neighborhood on Halloween until a guy with a chainsaw jumped out of the front door. that was that. So I enjoyed all your antics vicariously. Little Hunter amazes me with her bravery.
Need to stay in that hotel next time! Excellent video as always! Are you guys still using the Sony 16-35mm ?
FINALLY!!! I've missed you guys looking forward to watch 👌🏽
Us too!! so sorry about missing last week - this vlog is the longest we have ever put out and just needed that extra time :)
@@flyingthenest it was perfect 😉
THE CUTEST FAM EVER, THE BEST VIDEOS TO EXIST!!! SO PROUD OF U GUYS, ILYSM💕
Another amazing video as always!! I hope you had a wonderful Mother’s Day/Birthday Jess! And Hunter had a magical birthday! Love you guys! Big hugs 💕💕💕
💕💕💕💕💕💕 aww thank you!!
Love all your vlogs including this one. Would love for you guys to create a vlog on how you book these Disney parks cruises and hotels ( if on budget).
sounds like a plan :)
“Golly gosh!” ❤
hahaha that was the word to describe the hotel
@@flyingthenest made me laugh, so cute 🥰
Y’all are so fun to watch ❤❤
Loved the long version, got to see way more of what it’s like there. Great job
Aww yay!!
SWEET FAMILY 👪 ❤️ 💖 💕 ♥️ 💓 👪 ❤️ 💖 💕 ♥️ 💓 👪 ❤️ 💖 💕
💕 💕
Good life, good vibes. Enjoy it 💯%
Amazing.full credit to Steve and jess.you never get that time back.Thanks.😀
Jess great job on the roller coaster!!
Well done Jess for being SO brave! You have come a long way. Great video as always guys ❤
aww thank you!! cant believe i went on a loop-the-loop ride!!! ahhhh!
@@flyingthenest haha I know! So proud of you 😘
Hunter is such a dare devil! I was screaming SO much on radiator spring racers! I loved disney California so much! Thank you for sharing this wonderful video! I look forward to them each week!
Love this longer one guys ❤
❤❤ yay so glad to hear❤
I loved this video, so much fun. I also loved how you told us to distinguish between chip n dale with the nice colours ☺️ thank you xx
Thanks so much 😊
Wow, what a great video... your kids are living their best lives.... cheers for sharing...
aww thanks so much!!
Loved it .. looks like so much fun! Never wanted it to end
Aww wow thank you!! So glad you enjoyed the extra long vlog
So. Much. Fun! (Minus the balloon incident which we won’t talk about) 😅 Goofy will forever be the best ride!! Hahaha
You guys continue to be the best with the theme park videos! And this one is a gem with the thrill ride selfies! Jess on the Incredicoaster was fun to watch yet hilarious. Steve and Hunter on Radiator Springs..priceless! However, the swinging on the ferris wheel was the most terrified I have ever seen Hunter. Did you guys ride Webslingers at Avengers Campus? My son loved that. Your vlogs always make us feel like we were there! 😎
awww what an incredibly lovely comment thank you so much :)!! we love doing the theme park videos - honestly they are the videos we rewatch all the time with the kids! We did do webslingers but it was a bit hard to show it in the vlog! haha i think Hunters review was "my arms hurt"
Love watching your Disney adventure, love that you try lots of food xxx
aww thanks mate!
NO on that Ferris wheel! I hate them anyways! Not getting on one that moves too! Good for you Jess! And, Hunter is now my hero for going on those swings in the sky!
we honestly didnt even get the full experience of the death wheel! we spent ages lining up then spent the whole spin them topping more passengers..then got us off - it was a bit disappointing as it never did the whole swing
@@flyingthenest well that would be disappointing for sure! BTW....loved these last two videos as it has been 20 years or more since I visited Disney in California!
At the rate Hunter is going, she'll be going on that Guardians of the Galaxy ride in no time.
hahahaha - remember this comment for the future
Man, yall should get themed rooms when you visit Disney's in the future. Please!
oooh any suggestions?

If you ever are in Orem Utah again, you have to come to a place called The Yard and get a milkshake. Yes, they named it as a play on the song. I mean, only if you love an incredible milkshake of course (seriously though, look at the menu on their website). Cars Land made me teary, it was one of my dad's favorite movies and I had always hoped I could take him toe Cars Land but he wasn't well enough. This was so much fun to watch.
Absolutely wonderful video 😊
Amazing video guys 🤗👍Thanks for sharing and take care 😁
Thank you! You too!
As always you guys never let me down ❤️
❤️❤️
Good on you Jess for doing Incredicoaster. I did it in 2009 when it was California Screamin’ because my family convinced me to do it. I was glad I did it once best couldn’t go again.
i cant believe i did that hahaha
love this vlog! thank you for sharing your experience!
aww thank you so so much!!
Just love Hunter she’s such a lucky girl to be able to travel with you to all these wonderful places 🤩
love the videos every week
aww so glad to hear!!
Disney California has the best churros ever I think it’s because they’re close to Mexico❤
they were soo good!!
Koa is so serious! A gentleman behaviour !
hehe he is just happy to blob along
what a wonderfully fun video!! i go to these parks every few years and was still grinning from ear to ear watching hunter experience dca. not to mention the adults on incredicoaster and pixar pal-around. 😅
haha thanks Kelly!!
Love your beautiful family, thank you for great videos. ❤️🥰
Our pleasure! thanks so much for your support!
You should do the Route 66 road trip and stock at Holbrook and all the little inspo towns for cars movie. Plus Gallup and Albuquerque and Sedona and all kinds of awesome southwest cities are out there.
Must have authentic hatch green Chile in New Mexico. And the red Chile. Cheese enchilada showcases the red Chile so well. And bunuelo with honey and butter. My aunt insisted I try one year I had no interest. She was right 😊
wait for next weeks series ;-)
Loved the longer video ❤
Yay!! It’s also the reason we didn’t upload last week as the size of this was like 3 vlogs worth 😂
I can’t believe you guys haven’t ever been to CAP before! It wasn’t open when hubby and I first went in 1992 and I was just pregnant at with our first. We went back to Disneyland in 2009 with 3 kids - our eldest was 16 and youngest 10 and CAP was open then. In 2012 we did Disney World with 3 teenagers. Then Disneyland again in 2018 for 4 days leading up to New Year’s eve with our youngest. We chose to spend New Year’s eve in CAP and had a great time with half the crowds! Sadly we missed our go on Cars because our daughter (who had had a heavy cold all week and had refused to give up) started feeling nauseous after doing Incredicoaster 3 time and Guardians twice. We took her back to the Hotel and then hubby and I went back for dinner at Lamplight Lounge and a final go on Soarin’.
i know!! before we just kinda had the one day free to go see Disneyland, and well you just never know and always go for the one with the castle! but so glad we went DCA is waaay better than Disneyland
My dream to go to Disneyland 😻
aww hope you can one day!!
🙏🏼
I looooove your videos, guys!! Thank you so much for sharing so many great memories with us! Love this family! Kisses from Brazil
aww thanks so much!!
Jess: Hunter, it's going to swing. Isn't it fun? *while gripping her friend for dear life* 😂
😂 😂 😂
Love you guys so much but have to say I would personally be very bothered with a lit cell phone during a dark ride. Fine on the bright ones but all I kept thinking during the guardian one is I would be so distracted by that. We just came from our Disney world visit and even during haunted house there would be people with their cell phones during the dark ride. Just a thought.
I really appreciate the longer form videos. I'm wondering do you have a partnership with Disney now I know you've taken time off to be with family in Australia and take a breath. Looking forward to more maybe non-disney even though I am a Disney fanatic Adventures
Nah no partnership with Disney - just having fun there whilst the kids are young :) - next week we start a 8-9 part Van life series through America :)
I went to Disneyland when I was 5 and all I really remember is watching my first helium balloon, mickey shaped of course flying up into the air. smh...your video bought back memories lol
awwww nooo #triggered
😆🤣😂.....those crazy rides... hahahahaha 😂🤣😂😂😆....what FUN.!!!!!!!!!
Omg, I could never do that Ferris wheel!
Nothing beats a good clam chowder! 😋
You got that right!
Can you guys do a flying the nest expedition to a theme park 2025? That would be so much fun! ❤
haha we did actually in Japan last year it was so fun :)
Oh man your a hour or so from when I live Glad you had a good time.
aww no way!
@@flyingthenest just glad to see ya in California. Safe travels. Love your vlogs
Dream to visit carsland, wow :D
the land was done SO well!
ME, a 27 year old with no kids, laughing my HEAD off to the ferris wheel hahahahaha
So what temperature is cold in California?🤠❤️. Fun! Fun! Fun!
aww this was filmed back in January! thats why it was a bit chillier
IM GLAD HUNTER IS HAVING A BALL
hahaha she always is
Omggggg!! I cannot believe I was supposed to be there May 7th & 8th! You mean I could've possibly seen you guys! I'm so mad at my boyfriend now.. we didn't get to go because he was sick 😭😭
He's better now. But this is the saddest news I've gotten 😢 lol
aww honestly this was filmed earlier on in the year :) so dont feel too bad!! but also so sorry you were sick hope youre all good now!
Clam chowder is American and was invented in New England. 😊
So, which DIsneyland is the best so far in all your travels??
oh wow!...lets wait till we try out the new Fantasy Springs in Tokyo...as I think that will be the new contender ;-)
Stephen's air on that Goofy ride looks like pippi longstockings
haha omg dying
@@flyingthenest I was dying too....I swear I laughed out loud....hard😁❤️
Just so you know that clam chowder was invented in New England the United States, not in Ireland or Finland. If you want the absolute best clam chowder in the world then go to New England. Also New England and along the east coast of the United States is where some of the best seafood in the world is from.😊
32:28 Seriously how did Stephen hold the camera so steady the entire ride?
iPhone 👍
just found a stat for Jess:
the Incredicoaster does 0-55mph in 4 seconds
Woah
RIP balloon 2024-2024 lol
❤
❤
Did you spend 3 days there?
at DCA - yep!
