Whether they're on set in New York or in Paris en route to an event, Al Roker and Craig Melvin are always bringing positivity wherever they go.
The duo (along with Hoda Kotb and Savannah Guthrie) are in France for the 2024 Paris Olympics, reporting news from the other side of the world. But the group isn't just doing their jobs, as they're also able to attend some of the sporting events taking place during the summer games.
In a video uploaded on Al's Instagram on July 29, it seemed like he, Craig and Hoda were heading over to an Olympic event when Bill Withers' song "Lovely Day" came on the radio in the car. As folks watched Hoda film Al and Craig sing along to the words, it looked like they were all having a good time hanging out with one another.
"When @realbillwithers is on the radio and you're with @hodakotb and @craigmelvinnbc you can't help but sing along," Al captioned the short clip.
When folks caught wind of Al's sneak peek into life away from the cameras with his co-workers, people adored seeing their interaction in real-time.
"Love it!! Al and Craig you should try to this more often! This made my day already!" one person wrote. "@alroker [you're] a national treasure we absolutely love you thank you for being such a cool human," another declared. "Absolutely love their positive energy! 😉," a different follower added.
Needless to say, the folks of the Today show seriously love to hang out with one another! As for what else Craig has to show for his time in the City of Light, it looks like he's excited about the new adventure.
"Honored to be in Paris working for @todayshow and @nbcsports covering these @nbcolympics," he captioned a series of photos on Instagram on July 29. "We’re having a blast so far — great sports, wonderful food, fabulous friendships. So far. So fantastic here in Paris."
