ℹ️ About this episode:
This week on LivinRVision, we take you on a safari drive through that also has a walk through portion and a KOA campground so that you can sleep with the Lions! Okay, not literally. 😉 But we do take you for a tour through the campground so that you can get a glimpse of what it looks like and what it has to offer. 😃
And of course there will be a few laughs along the way, so enjoy the show! 🧡😊🤓

Thanks so much for visiting and for sharing this great video of your adventure!

[@LivinRVision]

You are very welcome and thank YOU! 🧡😊🤓

Brian, you looked right at home at the Safari. 🤣 Your trainer Michelle has done an amazing job. I always love starting my Saturdays off with your fun videos.

[@barbarapadgett5538]

A great video from beginning to end. Love watching you guys. Your sound, music and commentary is fabulous! Thanks for the amazing tour!

[@carolynnkaster9457]

When I moved to Florida in the early 80"s I had a co-worker who lived so close to LCS that her children got scared at night due to the lions roaring. Great video! I never went to the park while I still lived in Florida. I guess I should go now that I snowbird.

[@kylepifer9509]

You guys were having way to much fun 😂. Have been to that park twice in my lifetime and I didn’t have as much fun as you two did!!😂😊

[@TheGrayLifewithJimPearl]

My Lady is always telling me the traffic is stopping. Pearl and I are still out here watching your adventures. Oh, We have just completed our RV Hunt and got a class A.

[@LivinRVision]

Congratulations on your Class A! Hope to see you out there sometime.

[@werejustapassinthru574]

Loved Michelle’s drumming 😂🎉😂

[@bridgetmachida4317]

Once again, a great video! You are very talented as a videographer. You have information, humor, interest. Very good. We went to LCS about one year ago! Guess my favorite animal.

[@LivinRVision]

Wow, thank you! 🧡 Is it the Zebras? 🦓

[@mrsjudys]

Excellent video! Michelle on those drums....with dance moves! Thank you again. ❤

[@lisataylor584]

Grabbed some “Kevin’s Korean BBQ Beef” at Costco the other day after last weeks video. 😮 It was AWESOME! Thanks for the great recommendation. Will be trying the chicken next. Enjoyed this weeks video as always. Thanks for taking us along in your journey’s.

[@QuiltGeek]

Many years ago there was a Lion Country Safari in So California. It didn’t have near the vegetation as the Florida one. We had 2 Rhinos butting horns right in front of our car! It was scary but thrilling too! They went at it for quite a while! Thank you for the great video. Continued safe travels. Kathi

[@garythovson2587]

Michelle did a great job on the drums, new career? Looked like a beautiful day for viewing the animals. See ya next week.😎🥸🤓

[@LivinRVision]

🧡🤓

[@helenguilford7510]

That KOA would be great to stay with our grandchildren. Thanks for the video, you always do a great job.😊

[@LivinRVision]

We thought the same thing, thinking about our grandkids. We would love to take ours too. Thank you! 🧡😊🤓

[@bradleybevak]

Nice job

[@KSscrapgirl2]

Oh that was awesome! What beautiful parks those were and the animals were so interesting. Looks like the temperature was perfect for the stroll. Enjoyed how Michelle really let loose on the bongo drums, lol! Thanks so much for sharing a treat!

[@PamplinFilmCompany]

Another great video, fun and informative, plus great filming and music. Can't wait to see what you do next week . . .

[@LivinRVision]

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it! 🧡 Next week will be a very special and interesting video. 48 minutes long as well.

[@PenelopeA57]

Oh you guys!! Love the facial expressions, the interactions! Hard not to smile (& crack up) through the video. Also love how informative each video is. You both rock!

[@lowellpollock4696]

Thanks so much for taking us along. You two are so fun. I feel like I'm being all giddy and excited everytime I comment on your post, but it's true! Again you make our Saturday every week. Michelle your bongo dance was so fun to see. Great editing Brian. Be safe God bless.

[@mikemanjo2458]

Good Saturday mornin! Loved this trip! Y’all are so fun (and funny) to spend time with. Thanks for bringing us along! Have a great week! Much love from SC, Jane❤🙏🏻

[@mandolynn5434]

Loved the animals and their "voices"! Ha ha! Great drumming, Michelle! :) Fabulous video, as always! The music reminded me of the Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls music. :) :)

[@philstucker1312]

Fun video, thanks!

[@TheLvablebird]

👋 Hi from southern New Mexico🌶️🌵..fantastic 🎥 again. I was just commenting on another video when back in the early 80s we saw these animals that had the horns that twirl straight up and the rumps that look like an antelope and I watch this ...the SCIMITA HORNED ONYX brought into New Mexico. We were living in our van and we went places that 4x4 go..we shouldn't since we didn't have a granny gear. It was beautiful to see them they were running next to us and crossed the road in front of us. We were on a gravel road missed our turn and ended up on a cow path and the land looking what I thought would be Ireland. Thanks for sharing! Angels all around you.💖🤗

[@LivinRVision]

🧡😊🤓

[@slalomking]

Probably the most informative videos out there

[@brendameyer6567]

Nice scenery! Great drumming Michele!🥁Thank you for showing us so much wildlife! Awesome video! You have a great camera too!

[@n1uno1965]

So enjoyed you both having fun! 🖖🏻😘👍🏻🙏🏻

[@sweetpea8091]

Both fun and beautiful, a nice way to spend the day♥️

[@rvcruising]

Fun! We went there during Covid when only the drive through section was open. Looks like we should go back sometime to check out the rest too!

[@lisabeare2366]

Love the Macaw comment, still giggling

[@christinaputney659]

That was fun!

[@carolmcdaniel7693]

Another fun video!

[@chuckiedee1]

You are having WAY too much fun! 😂

[@kathycampbell8000]

The campground you stayed in looked pretty tight, and very full! That safari park looked great! Now, I’ve put something else on my bucket list lol

[@LivinRVision]

Yeah, it was a little tight for bigger rigs especially.

[@David-pk6bn]

Enjoyed the video and your comedy routine. Your fun and informative to watch. Wish I had known you were in the area because I’m just up the road in Stuart. Safe travels.

[@wayneandsharon04]

Love the drum dance😂

[@LivinRVision]

🤓🧡

[@domenickruttura5412]

We live in Wellington visit the horse show really wonderful

[@gregprince2523]

You guys oughta go to the Ft Lauderdale Flea market ..... biggest I ever been to!!!! Go hungry! it's worth the trip!

[@MonacoMike]

Didn't realize there was a KOA there. From your side note it appears they are limited to 40 ft so that leaves us out :-( We use RV Trip Wizard for all of our travel planning and go by the reviews of the campgrounds in the area we target to stay. We look for reviews with 3 stars and above, mainly because of our size, and have actually found most KOA's not to far out of line from Good Sam's or other highly rated campgrounds, although there are exceptions because of areas with limited choices. The Finger Lakes area of upstate NY comes to mind for one.

[@blessedtoquest]

Checked their monthly rates, which weren't terribly bad for the off-season... but they charge over $100 extra for each additional person over 2 people. ... and the tax is 13%! Is it like that everywhere in FL? For Nov or December it would have been like $1600 for us to stay with our kids.. 😑

[@iamfaithfullyhis]

$45 for all of this is pretty great! 👍 For those saying how high the burger lunch was... Welp here in California at Mc Donald's that's the price for 2 burger meals. 😔

[@LivinRVision]

Agree! We noticed the high prices were even higher this last time we were in CA this past Summer/Fall. 😔

[@norm4907]

$36 for two small hamburgers. No thanks.

[@harterbob]

We paid a whopping $64 for two burgers, two fries, and two iced teas at the Tampa Super Show. I should’ve asked how much prior to ordering. And the burgers were overcooked, dry as shoe leather. Lesson learned for me.

[@LivinRVision]

Typical prices for amusement park restaurants.

[@kathleenrutherford733]

Ridiculous!! That's crazy

[@vince8705]

Hi Guys, not a big fan of drive thru animal parks, always fell the animals are sad, anyway, KOA looked decent for an overnight or two. Didn’t know it existed til now so thank you for that, I’m in Central Florida so this would make for a nice weekend or mid week getaway. Stay safe…

[@maryfagan5908]

What brand is your bag, looking for a new sling type bag

[@LivinRVision]

It’s called “Kedzie”. I really like mine a lot. 👍🏻🤓

[@hdmarkazi9003]

What do you guys think about not having a spare tire in your RV? Thanks

[@LivinRVision]

There is a place for one underneath and we would prefer to have it there if it were our RV.

[@josephrobichaud5198]

It may be just my computer, but for me this video looked blurry, and the side pop up's where really hard to read. Other then that a great video as always, thanks for taking us along on your travels.

[@blessedtoquest]

Was clear for us. Might be your monitor.

[@Iris-zq5mq]

Video was crystal clear for me.

[@LivinRVision]

Here is what happens and the reason why some people see it, and some people don’t. When you are streaming something, like KZbin…KZbin select the correct speed that will play the video without buffering, depending on what your speed is at the time. Usually everyone’s Internet fluctuates in speed, it will raise and drop. When the speed drops, and if it is really low, KZbin will select as far down as 144P. This will cause anybody’s video to look blurry. Take notice in the little gear icon in the corner and click on it when this happens. You will see the auto speed that KZbin selected. At 480p the video starts to look watchable, but 720p, 1080p and above will look more clear the higher the speed. We film it 4K, but the video will not look better if your speed is not very good. Speeds drop even with Starlink, cable internet etc., especially your cell phones. Congestion in your area and other factors play a role. If there is ever something wrong with the video quality, everyone would see and hear the same thing. Hope this helps. 👍🏻😊🤓

[@rd1860]

Nice video. A bit off topic--We are seriously considering purchasing a Grech Strada Ion Tour. It would be very helpful if you could answer two questions. 1-Could you provide the actual carry capacity that is listed on the sticker in your specific unit? 2-Have you had any difficulty with the ability of the van to handle tougher driving conditions such as steep grades (both up and down)? Thank you.

[@LivinRVision]

What you are looking for is the GVWR which is 11,030 lbs. on the 2023 Grech Strada-Ion model. We also talked about this last year when we talked about the CAT scale reading before heading to Nashville. We have not had any issues at all but n the mountains. I love the quick shift at your finder tips also for dropping down a gear or two going up or down the mountains. Especially handy on steep grades when you don’t want to ride your brakes.

[@rd1860]

@@LivinRVision Thank you so much for the response. Actually, I really am looking for the cargo carry capacity (GVWR - UVW). It should be listed on one of the stickers. Trying to find out how much weight can be legally added to the unloaded vehicle. Thanks again--appreciated.

[@LivinRVision]

You’re very welcome. You mentioned you are thinking about purchasing a Strada-Ion, so likely you have test drove or have been to a dealership to see one, correct? The reason I ask is, depending on the year you are going to purchase, will likely make a difference because, the new model coming out is going to likely be different. When it comes out, you’ll see what I’m talking about. We don’t want to be responsible for giving wrong info if you decide to purchase the newer model. The dealership you purchase from or are looking at buying from, can (and should) give you that info on the specific model/year you end up purchasing.

[@rd1860]

@@LivinRVision Gotcha! We actually have not driven one yet. We saw it at the Tampa show and it would be one of the last 2023 models to be delivered in May (per the show salesman). So it would be the exact same chassis as yours, not one of the new 4-cylinder models. If you can, thank you--if not, I understand. Either way, keep up the great work.

[@darbowma]

What was the song at the end of your video?

[@LivinRVision]

It’s our normal song we usually play at the end of nearly every video. It is “Call It A Day” (Celebrate).

[@wcrvadventures9489]

We are Sunshine Ft Lauderdale curious. It would be a convenient location for us but have heard unflattering reviews. Are the transient sites separated from the permanent sites? We are 39 feet with slides and a tow vehicle, doesn’t look like we would fit 😢. Would you go back?

[@LivinRVision]

There is no separation between permanent and transient sites. There were several big Class A’s there it’s just the sites are a bit tight for the larger rigs. We would not go back unless we had no other option in the area.

[@Banagal]

Lyons, and Tigers, and Bears, OH MY! Not to mention the gators, birds, and all thing creepy and crawly. Reference your camp parking spot. It looked like the big RV parked on the wrong side initially. It should have been on the side you were on so the hook-ups would be on the correct side. Just saying...

[@LivinRVision]

It does look that way, but oddly enough, that’s the way it is at that campground, mainly due to the patio being on the same side as the utilities. It’s an odd setup.

[@Banagal]

@@LivinRVision I agree ☝️

[@kimberlyshalaby1134]

Sorry about the milk & coffee comment. I started commenting on one video, & have no clue how it ended up on yours. Will delete asap.

[@LivinRVision]

Hi Kimberly! We haven’t even seen the comment, but there sure has been a lot of odd things going on with our channel. People have been writing us telling us that KZbin unsubscribes them and they have to re-subscribe, some comment and it never shows up on our videos and they nor we deleted the comments and some other really suspicious things. I’ve reported some of these things to KZbin and all they ever say is, that they are “investigating.” We wonder how many views and subscribers have actually been deleted over the past 4 years. It’s been going on for at least 3 years now. 🤷‍♀️ 🤷‍♂️

[@kimberlyshalaby1134]

@@LivinRVision I was dropped last February when you went to Disney via Wilderness Campground shuttle. You didn't have to pay an entrance fee.

[@jomcfarland3118]

KZbin unsubcribed me from every one of my channels a few weeks ago. Frustrating and time-consuming for me, and I assume a loss for you. Hopefully, it makes up for it when viewers re-subcribe.
