Katie, you are so sweet to say you are overwhelmed and grateful for the hotel at the end, so lovely of you to say that. Really great travel info and family fun again, thank you x

[@katie_ellison]

Thank you so much, I was really overwhelmed by it. I have been doing this a long time but I still feel incredibly grateful for the opportunities we get. Thanks so much for watching and being so nice! x

[@curator3539]

That last sweet was bonkers amazing! What an amazing opportunity for you and your family! I'm so happy for you all! I also love living like a local when I go places, I spend WAY too much time on Google Maps before I go somewhere so I can look at the street views of he different stores and restaurants and look at the pictures of them and reviews. Also, yeah President's Day Weekend is one of the WORST weekends driving around in the bigger cities and tourist places. I live in a pretty big city in the Southwest and I usually try to stay in when those weekends come up.

Yay I have been waiting for this Katie I am loving this series. We love Orlando but you have given us so many different ideas that we wouldn't have even thought of doing for our trip next easter. xx

It was the most beautiful hotel, we were so lucky to stay there. It makes me feel closer to it editing them, what a wonderful place it is! x

Ive been enjoying these a lot anyway, but my husband has recently come into a new job opportunity that means we may be able to travel for 3 weeks at a time, 4 times a year. First on our list is a Florida road trip so these videos are now full on planning research! To explain the travel thing - he'll be working in a different country for 8 weeks, for a lot more money than we have now, and then will have 3 weeks off on half pay during which time we intend to travel. Our fingers are so crossed that it comes off, especially because I'm already planning our trips 😂

[@katie_ellison]

Oh wow what an exciting opportunity for you all. I am crossing my fingers that everything works out for you because that sounds amazing. x

You need to go to circle b nature reserve next time they’re just everywhere chilling

[@katie_ellison]

ooh thanks for the tip! That is definitely where we need to go next time then haha, I just love them so much and I have no idea why!

[@cerysrennocks8332]

Firstly, I love your travel vlogs!! Always have! But could you give any advice on dealing with food allergies in the US?? My little boy is Coeliac so he is allergic to all forms of gluten. Are there many food options/alternatives for food allergies??

[@katie_ellison]

Hi Cerys thanks so much for saying that. I must admit personally I am sorry but I don't know much about food allergies over there as we don't have any so it's not something I have paid personal attention to. What I will say though is they do tend to ask like in the UK if anyone has allergies and the menus are similar too so I can imagine it will be more than fine and no different to home. x

[@katieb9688]

Hi. There is actually a way you can walk from Endless Summer to Universal. It takes about 25 mins across the bridge over the freeway. It’s not a pretty walk. But it’s doable!

[@katie_ellison]

oh thank you I didn't realise that! x

[@theonlyprogamer9529]

Can you tell me how I book iHOP?
