CORRECT. If he lands one foot after another, it's traveling.

Many high school referees call the first example a travel because "it looks like a travel" and because most players at that level can"t execute the move in a leagal manner and it is a travel.
As a ref if you explain it that way most coaches worth having a discussion with will know exactly what you are talking about if they don't you most likely will be wasting your breath no matter what you say.

WTF does a "count" have to do with it?
Personally, I couldn't care less whether the coach understands it or not. I ain't having that convo.

Exactly what I was telling Ref from PA above.
