Thank you so much! We definitely like to provide as much detail as possible whenever we can 😅 some of those little things can hopefully help others be better prepared and ready! Cabana bay really is such a fantastic resort. There is so much to do for families & it has such a reasonable price point. We definitely recommend checking it out for a visit to universal! 🙌 Thanks so much for watching 😊

I heard they might be getting an RMC Raptor next year. Then a RMC wild moose coaster.

That’s what I’ve been hearing and seeing now too! A single rail would fit perfectly in the Mura section and the wild mode would honestly fit great in any of the other 3, but Yuta and Udara have coasters already, so I could see Awa being a good area since it’s a bit more chill like the wild mode would be. Definitely sounds like exciting things on the horizon for lost island 🙌

@@keepingupindisney There's an old master plan floating around with expansion pad ideas that had a spinning family coaster next to Matugani that I could easily see being used for the Moose. And given the new plush/book combo this season and the sporadically appearing puppet version, I'd imagine it'd be themed after the Yik Yik horned fox creatures.

Keeping up in Waterloo! ✨ Omg you guys, you are living our theme park dreams out there in the Midwest. We've been dying to visit Lost Island ever since it opened. I love that you had so much space to move around and meet and greet with the characters...but I hate that a park this beautiful and well-crafted is so empty two years after its opening! 🥲 Hopefully this video will help to bring more travelers out to explore the mythical realms of the Island. I can't even deal with how every single ride has such immersive theming! And all those water features....ugh, it's so beautiful. Matugani reminds me of Storm Runner at Hersheypark, similar trains and layout but infinitely better themed. Katie tried one of those Gerstlauer Sky Fly rides at Toverland, and had just as much trouble as you did trying to get it to flip and turn. Rokava is also very unique in the US, only a few rides of that type are left in operation! Glad you had such a great time there! I really hope that this park survives the next couple of years so that we have an opportunity to visit. 🥲 Thanks for sharing, you guys!

It’s only a 4 hour drive and we’ve wanted to go for years too, so we figured it was finally time!!! With it being a pretty reasonable drive, we definitely wanna go back. We’re committed to exploring more Midwest theme parks that are in the vicinity, and definitely plan to hit the likes of CP, holiday world, michigans adventure, Adventureland, silver dollar city, etc. as soon as we can! Lost Island had been a “bucket list” park that was very easy to make happen in reality, so I’m glad this was the year! It really is so beautiful in the park. So much space, so much theming, characters and story and interactions are all fantastic. The app was actually super fun too and I really enjoyed getting to play quizzes to learn more about the lore, collecting badges, playing their versions of angry birds and temple run, and even more! The app has a really cool tracking system that automatically logs rides and inversions and ride times and lengths for you and all the sort to keep upping your badge collection and unlocking avatars. Even since being back I’ve been on the app playing the games and unlocking avatars and leveling up. Finally got the Matugani avatar with some cool badges and have now reached level 11! Can’t wait to go back and collect more treasures in the app too and unveil the full story. We really hope the park gets more traffic and attention too, it really deserves it. The realms are all so well thought out and put together. With some expansion and continuing to keep the theme and bones of what make the park special, it will truly be incredible. The immersive theming in each ride and how they fit together so well to the sections of the park and the overall story is truly impressive. It does sound like they’re planning on expanding and continuing to grow though, rather than stay stagnant, and I think that will bring more people out to visit once it gets some traction or the next “hot” coaster or ride. The park made a hot sauce and went around asking people if it tasted like a “raptor or a moose” and has dropped heavy hints in their socials showing RMC blueprints on their tables… it sounds like a raptor or wild moose is confirmed for next year. My best bet and guess is the raptor will be the “hot” new attraction in the Mura section. The typical red and yellow scheme we see on the single rails would fit absolutely perfectly with everything else. Matugani does remind me a bit of storm runner, just a bit less intense of a launch and the coaster overall is smaller scale. Storm runner is still a top coaster I hope to ride some day, but Matugani was another I was super excited to get 9 rides on in a day - really can’t ask for more! It’s also cool knowing it came from Sweden and has been given new life. It was cool getting a ride on Nopuko too and getting to experience the rare SLC with a helix finish, and knowing it came from South Africa, but it was not the best coaster overall 😅 the ride ops and park employees at every coaster and ride were just top notch and so nice too. I must not have updated, but we did the sky fly again a couple more times and I was able to get the prime spinning seat and actually hit my record of 5 spins in one ride!!! Not too much to write home about, but I successfully did some flips and it was cool! There are 2 specific seats on the outside fronts that are ideal for spinning and make it much easier. It’s near impossible in some of the other seats just because of the physics. Rokava was definitely fun and the theming made it even more exciting. I’m really hoping to go back with a go pro next time and record all the rides, because Rokava really was made next level with the menacing rock demon in the back staring at you while completely upside down and just watching him flip you around at his will. It really was an experience 😂 We really hope you guys get the chance to visit too, as it’s an awesome park and we hope it gets more support and does really well! With what sounds like some awesome potential new attractions coming, it sounds like the park still has hopes to become a staple in the theme park game. And we truly think it could be 🙌 it just has such a cool story too and is really a place that we want to continue supporting! Thanks so much for watching and leaving us a comment 😊

Checkout day is always so hard 🥲 Even - or perhaps especially - when you have had a longer stay. Cutting the sadness with a brief visit to Springs _does_ seem to help, though! Man I would have loved to have witnessed the rolling pianist playing Vanessa Carlton, that is a top tier experience 😂 We also _definitely_ have to make time for that mini golf course. It’s way more extravagant and immersive than it looks like it’s going to be from the drive by! The buckets that may (or may not) splash water would freak me out too 😂 But overall I think the water effects are pretty amazing! Also, Cheddar Bacon and Ranch tots at Friar’s Nook in MK might not be advertised as a meal….but we made a meal for two of it, and I can confidently say it beats out your CBR tacos 😜 Glad y’all had a safe trip home. Great video!

It is always a hard day! A visit to AoA, springs, and mini golf definitely make it a bit better. I didn’t catch all of the rolling pianist playing, but she did play a bit more of the song before recording and it was fantastic! Definitely a great experience while waiting in the chicken guy line 😅 Fantasia gardens was so much fun! We had talked about doing it for so long, and are often given the vouchers for the mini golf along with a resort stay but have never used them - so we figured it was finally time and our last day was the perfect occasion since we had a while before needing to get get to the airport. The theming was great & the course was very fun! Hm… the tots are good and we’ve had them before too, definitely shareable and a good value as well - but personally, I’d still argue the tacos are about just as good value and I think I’d take tacos over tots for a meal about 7 times out of 10. I do really love those tots from friars nook, but they’re not something I can eat all the time or multiple times. The tacos are something I typically have about 3 times now per trip, and somehow still crave 😂 and could be split by 2 for a snack as well, maybe not quite full meals for 2 people. Maybe that will be a fun video for us to make next time - Disney quick service value meal smackdown featuring CBR tacos, friars nook tots, and any other good suggestions we can get 🤪 Thanks so much for watching and leaving us a comment 😊

The _best_ two parks for a final day at Disney! We, too, were preemptively mourning Dinoland USA on our last trip. All we did was grab a snack at Restaurantosaurus and take a final spin on DINOSAUR...you guys were definitely a bit more dedicated, playing all the carnival games haha I think you're right to snatch up all of those souvenir stuffies while you can, though! In a matter of months, they may be priceless artifacts of an era long lost 🥲 I am super excited for the tropical Americas expansion and the Indiana Jones refit because and _only_ because Disney has established that it will be a completely different and unique experience from that of the Disneyland attraction, which gets me excited for something new. As long as it's not a needless clone, I'm down for the march of progress...but we will definitely miss DINOSAUR. Everest also has such wildly efficient loading capacity, it's no wonder that the single rider queue moves so quickly. The changes to Satu'li's bowls were easily the most DEVASTATING blow of our entire Disney trip because (like you) we'd had no idea that they'd been made until we tried to order! RIP Smoked Beef. 😭Shame about Remy's, but watching fireworks and taking a leisurely stroll around EPCOT still isn't a terrible way to close out a day. Oh, and, I think Arie's drawing was the winner of the Simba contest....but for what it's worth, Jamie's actually looks a lot like Nala! If she was going for Nala over Simba, I'd have said she was the winner 😂 Great video, y'all!

We love animal kingdom so much!!! It is pretty sad that Dinoland and dinosaur will be going away, but I’m excited and hopeful that the replacement will also be a worthy new addition to the park that will make it even better. The Dinoland games were definitely fun to play and I was happy to win some prizes - definitely wanted to get a couple before they would be “extinct” forever. Or for all we know, sold at the character warehouse or outlet stores a few months after closure 😂 It does make me intrigued that the Indians honed attraction will be a new experience. I’m still upset about the Satu’li Beef lol. I should have done more research to find that out before, but I guess I learned the hard way 😅 I wish they would bring back the good beef… the bowls just aren’t the same without it. I guess next time we’ll take a tip from your book and just do Nomad lounge or something else instead! We’ll for sure try to get on Remy’s next time - it would have been fun if it had worked out, but we had such a great day between both parks that we weren’t too upset about it! We’ve been on Remy’s a few times already and will definitely be back for it again 🙌 Thanks so much for watching 😊

Sk8r Boi was definitely the theme song for the day! Jamie's face when you mentioned getting her a lightning lane for Cosmic Rewind...I am deceased 😂 But we never got to see what she thought of it! Immediate cut after the reverse launch and no post-ride review. Until I hear otherwise, I'm assuming that she hated it haha I'm really devastated that we just barely missed Test Track 2.0 on our recent trip - it closed just a few weeks before we visited. 🥲I will forever and always miss 'TRON Track', but I'm cautiously optimistic about the new ride. My one request is that they not drastically change the music lol we've still yet to try so many restaurants in EPCOT, Le Cellier included....but we're slowly making our way around! Not surprised to hear that Le Cellier has better steak than Be Our Guest - the food in the Beast's castle isn't bad, but it's never been exceptional. EPCOT is definitely more of an 'eating' park! Glad that you made it to Frozen before the cutoff, and even got to enjoy that beautiful acoustic cover of One Little Spark on the way out. Great vlog, you guys! ✨

We heard it so many times 😂 Jamie did not enjoy guardians too much, but it didn’t cause any motion sickness issues or anything, just a bit too intense for her preferences! It was nice to be able to get one final ride on test track 2.0, although it’s no secret i definitely preferred the original version and am very excited to see what 3.0 will be. I think it may be the best of all, but only time will tell! Definitely excited to see what will come, but also wish they had still kept on with the seeming to be forgotten spaceship earth refurb and update. Le Cellier was definitely very good. Great cheese soup with pretzel bread, delicious steaks, and a mousse moose to finish it all off! Cannot ask for much more 😅 it was such a fantastic day at Epcot! Thanks so much for watching 😊

Surprisingly - it’s not that large of a place, but they fit a LOT into the space and the layout is longer, but quite thin. The majority of the park is on a straight “boardwalk” type area and so many of the coasters and rides are built right next to, or even on top of each other. It’s really quite impressive! For some of the more recent additions like steel hawg and the triple loop they’ve been expanding out from the boardwalk, and on our most recent visit it looked like they’re planning to open some flat rides over in that area as well to fill the now extended areas of the park. Lost coaster is definitely SUCH a unique ride. That’s really the only way to describe it 😅 Frankenstein’s castle was definitely an experience too. Worth trying out once at least for anyone that likes a little bit of haunt, but we don’t think it’s something we would do everytime lol. We actually just got back from a return visit to Indiana beach where we made a more full vlog of our day, so that will be coming to the channel soon!

You couldn’t hear me, I know, but I did call Briar Rose before you revealed it as Jamie’s bound for the day! 😂 In some ways, it’s a shame that we’ve all _just_ learned how to work Genie+ to get the most out of our day in the parks, only to have it replaced with a hybrid of old and new. Having said that, I’ll take literally anything over virtual queues! I think Haunted Mansion is a definite trade up from Small World, as Lightning Lanes go ⚡️ I’ve always heard Tony’s described as being very ‘mid’, but the food doesn’t look bad at all. I think maybe it’s just the fact that there are so many more exciting and higher class dining spots in the Magic Kingdom, and Tony’s just gets lost at the bottom of the list. In any case, it’s super cool that you can see the parade from across the restaurant! I love seeing a little bit of love for Tom Sawyer Island, too. I’m not sure I heard you right…is it a Mystery Mine, Arie? 😂 The WDW railroad is one of those attractions that you simply _have_ to do at least once! “Beyond Big Thunder” has everyone excited, but until they start actually breaking ground, I’m not holding my breath - too many blue sky pitches and not enough actual construction 👀 Also, did I just hear Peter Pan lose a fight to his own shadow? Haha come on Pete, you’re better than that! Looks like you had a full, fun day at MK and the ideal no-crowd view of the fireworks, too! Great video. ✨

It really is a shame that they’re changing the system after just getting a good feel for it, the hybrid version feels weird and definitely still doesn’t seem to check the boxes for what a good “fast queue” system could or should look like. But I will also take anything over virtual queues as they’ve very much overstayed their welcome and I never liked them in the first place! We’ve always heard Tony’s was very mid too, or even bad - like the Olive Garden of Disney 😅 but we’re people that actually don’t mind Olive Garden every once in a while and it kinda hits the spot, and Tony’s was much the same; slightly better tasting than Olive Garden, but a little more expensive (and no breadsticks and chicken gnocchi soup). Being in the Magic kingdom and having the parade views though definitely elevated the experience though and we had a great time at Tony’s! It’s not somewhere we would eat regularly, but would definitely go back and had a great experience. I think it’s still a bit of a mystery on what type of mine we explored 😂 that mystery mine sure was mysterious. We were definitely glad we did the railroad and wanted to get on it really badly! It was cool to see where the potential expansions could be, even if things haven’t been super concrete! I’m also skeptical of all the plans and blue sky idea tossed around, but it sounds like at this point I’m fairly confident that there will at least be SOMETHING coming behind big Thunder, even hearing now there might be an expansion behind the plot of pirates too - but definitely still lots of questions of the “what” and “when” and desperately craving something solidified. I feel we’ve got a bit better of an idea of changes coming to animal kingdom and have a bit more detail there, but so much is still up in the air! It was such a fun day at Magic Kingdom! Always nice to end with some fireworks too ☺️ Thanks so much for watching and leaving us a comment! 😊

That laundry timer was the most relatable thing I've ever seen in a Disney resort vlog 😂 The coffee at the Boardwalk _does_ sound good, but it'd be hard-pressed (ha!) to beat out the Riviera's almond cold brew. Love that there are so many different flavors connected by the Skyliner, though! That's the great thing about staying at a Skyliner resort - you're never short on options, regardless of whether you're looking for Italian subs or specialty coffees. Had literally _no_ idea that the Lost Bros had a band in addition to a clothing line! The concert looked like a blast. So cool you got to meet Fairview and the Bros themselves, sounds like the perfect way to spend a "rest day" on (near) property! ✨

The laundry timer is a must 😂 on laundry days the agenda can be hard to coordinate while trying to get things done but also be efficient in cleaning the clothes! Gotta put a little PEP in my STEP if I know the timers gonna be going off soon 😅 The almond cold brew was SO good and it’s really a tough choice between the 2… there’s just something about that sweet cinnamon flavor, and the day I drank the frozen coffee it was quite hot out - so it was perfect for the weather and fit the vibe. I’ll have to try both again to do another comparison - safe to say that both are some top notch coffee options though. Definitely a perk of staying at a Skyliner resort; there are so many other resorts that we wanna try, but it is just so hard to choose one off the convenient travel route now! 🙌 The Lost Bros have some really great music actually and they’re working on another album that sounds like it’ll be coming out this year! They do mostly Disney covers, but they make some pretty great unique ones. Their cover of under the sea was actually featured as background music on American Idol a few months ago which is pretty wild! And apparently some of their songs are on several of the Disney cruise line playlists, so if you go on a disney cruise - you may hear a lost bros song and not even know it! I love all of their creativity and the energy they bring to the world of Disney creators! Super nice people and really cool to meet. Fairview was fantastic too, and not sure if you caught it in there - but they actually brought of Tom, the singer of the plain white T’s, to sing Hey There Delilah and it was a really small and intimate crowd and a super awesome moment that we’ll always remember. We had a really great time trying something different and getting a little outside of the Disney bubble! It was a really good day off from the parks overall 🙌 Thanks so much for watching 😊

When you consider that a single pretzel with cheese is about $8, a latte is $6+, a single churro about $7, and several other items right around the $10 price point that we wouldn’t find as worth it - the $10 for the Mickey waffle platter definitely seems more palatable, especially since we often do spend much more than that even on a singular cocktail pretty much anywhere at Disney 😅 they do also come with strawberries and whipped cream & are a pretty full and filling portion, so they’ve definitely become one of my favorite breakfast options that I actually consider to be one of the more affordable ones. I would certainly have ended up spending more getting just about anything from centertown market at CBR! I love the blueberry Mickey waffles and will defend them all day 😂 they’re always served super hot and fresh too and just really hit the spot with the cold whipped cream and berries. They’re thick and quite filling. Jamie really doesn’t love star tours lol. We only went on it for the new Ahsoka and Mandolorian scenes and because Jake likes it, but it’s typically a skip for us so we can prioritize other things. Tower of terror is fantastic, definitely my (Arie’s) favorite ride - and it might be growing on Jamie a bit too, even if it still scares her a little 😅 We were surprised to see the characters out but it was really cool! We had only met the dwarfs before, but never Gepetto or Pinocchio! It was definitely a great second day at studios to hit some of the things we missed on our first day and also do some favorites again and try some new things! Thanks so much for watching 😊

Hi! Thank you so much for checking out the video and leaving us a comment 😊 Caribbean beach resort has a bus depot near the main lobby, and then also has bus stops in most of the individual sections too. Buses run to Animal Kingdom, Magic Kingdom, Disney Springs, and Typhoon Lagoon all day & they also run buses to Hollywood Studios and Epcot if the Skyliner is down. But if the Skyliner is running - that will be how you’ll get to studios or Epcot. Also a great way to get to the riviera or go check out the boardwalk or other resorts. The bus at CBR stops at each bus stop and goes around the resort in a small loop before picking up all passengers and heading to the final destination. There is also just an internal resort loop bus that goes between the sections and can be a nice way to get around the resort if it’s harder for you to walk long distances. We actually have a couple videos on our channel that might be helpful for some of your other specific questions and to get a feel for the resort! We made a full Caribbean Beach Resort tour & a Caribbean Beach Resort pros and cons video covering many other details of CBR! They are both on our channel ☺️ Thanks so much again for watching!! Please let us know if you have any other questions at all.

If you've not eaten at Boatwright's at PO: Riverside...you need to give it a try. Their French Onion soup is AWESOME! Personally, I love French Quarter more than Riverside. However, this summer, we'll be at Saratoga Springs.

We have not eaten there yet!!! We tried Sassagoula Floatworks for food on this visit, but will be adding Boatwright’s to the list for next time and checking out that soup 😊 thank you for the recommendation! We really weren’t sure which resort we liked better, but would love to spend more time at both. We’ve always been kind of drawn to Riverside because they are pet friendly and we would love to take our dog down sometime to see Disney World. Saratoga Springs looks like a fantastic resort! That’s another we haven’t visited or checked out yet, but would definitely like to in the near future. Thanks so much for watching and leaving us a comment ☺️

There's a lot in DHS that we've taken for granted over the years, not the least of which are all the live entertainment and shows. 😉 Honestly, it wasn't until we started watching more Disney vloggers that we came to realize how popular shows like Beauty and the Beast and Frozen are in this park! We are always going so hard on the rides, we never spare any time for the shows. I will say, though, that we never _don't_ get ourselves the Ronto Wrap. I love Rizzo the Rat but in 100/100 scenarios I'd go for Ronto Roasters over PizzeRizzo lol shame about the Mr. Potato Head animatronic, though. I guess he’s this year’s Disco Yeti...with significantly less disco. 😔 But getting right pilot for Smuggler’s Run was a big win, my literal favorite seat in the pod! Right pilot gets to make the jump to light speed - aka the best part of the ride. So sweet to see Jamie and her cousin reuniting. You guys really crushed this first day, the only big e-ticket attractions that you missed were Slinky and Tower of Terror! Bonus points for squeezing Fantasmic into the end of the day, too haha great video! ✨

When I was younger and went to studios, I never really appreciated the shows and was always focused on rides! My main experience with the shows was when my mom wanted to watch them and dragged all the kids along, which at the time was taking away from critical ride opportunities - but now, as a young adult I’ve really come to appreciate the shows and entertainment and different offerings that theme parks have. The live entertainment really brings such a fun vibe and there is so much talent in the shows at the parks! It really can set your average theme/amusement park with just rides apart from the rest of the crowd with some great entertainment offerings. Beauty and the beast and frozen are some of our favorites, although - I’ve gotta say DAK still wins overall currently for shows and live entertainment for us with the constant music and dancing outside, festival of the lion king, and the Nemo show! I did have some regrets about not getting a Ronto wrap… but I actually really want to try the breakfast Ronto wrap more than the normal one! PizzeRizzo was definitely not the best lol but it helped continue the quest to try all pizzas in Disney world, so it was still worth it 😅 and that party/wedding/funeral/event room is just so fun and unique. I’d go back there for the ambience over the food if anything. Right pilot is definitely the favorite on smugglers run too - there is nothing better than making the jump to light speed 😅 It was a really great studios day with a pleasant mix of rides, entertainment, drinks, and food - and we planned to hit all of those other things we missed on our next studios day! Not our favorite Disney world park overall, but we always have a great time in Hollywood Studios. Thanks so much for watching 😊

"The pizza window is trash" - Right out of the gate spitting fire, Arie! haha I can't disagree, though. 😂 I know you know I love 'TRON track' and I'm devastated to see it go, but I'm cautiously optimistic about the reimagining, given that they seem to be sticking with some of the more modern elements. I also wholeheartedly agree that it's _long_ past time to get Cosmic Rewind off of the virtual queue system. It's been literally years! I never liked the virtual queue system to begin with, so the fact that it's stuck around this long for certain attractions has only served to get me more riled up about it. 😛 I know you cut out the crowd response to Terry Crew's speech, but I'd still put money down on someone having shouted 'alcoholics' in response to his inquiry haha it seems to be part of the experience now. And Soarin' is never not a great ride, we rarely miss it if we've got the time to wait out the queue! Luminous also looks like a great show, but nothing can dethrone Harmonious in my heart....at least as far as the EPCOT spectaculars go. Love the shirt that Jamie picked up from the boardwalk shop! Great video! ✨

😅 this was just a continuation of our previous video and Jamie’s birthday as a whole that I just cut into 2 because it was too long - and for some reason I was already feeling extra opinionated this day, so we’re just rocking and rolling into this part with spittin some fire straight from the top 😂 that pizza really is terrible though. Like how is via Napoli so good, and it’s in the Italy pavilion - but the pizza is just so subpar. I don’t get it. I’m also optimistic for test track. I didn’t love the current version and have always kind of missed the old one, so I’m a bit excited about the retheme either way - but for some reason I have a feeling this might be the best one yet. Definitely time for the virtual queue on guardians to go! Just open a standby and they can still sell lightning lanes. Its pretty crazy that the ride has been open over 2 years now and there are still guests that visit that could potentially not get to even try the ride if they don’t get lucky with a VQ or lightning lanes sell out quick. I understand the virtual queue system for some crowd control while there may be initial kinks to work through upon first opening, but keeping it going over 2 years later really makes no sense to me - besides to try to get extra money by selling more lightning lanes. You’re totally right too - that’s a pretty common response I’ve heard almost every time now 😅 We actually think we liked Harmonious a bit better too after sitting on it for a while… luminous is good, and I don’t miss the barges at all. But we really enjoyed the music for harmonious and it was a great show! They’re both pretty great in their own way. Thanks so much for watching 😊

In our experiences thus far, Sunday is often the busiest day at EPCOT! Despite the crowds, it looks like you two had a great day out. I agree that sometimes Genie+ isn't worth it at a certain point in the day, which is part of the whole problem with the system. I'd prefer it be more expensive and allow you to jump in a faster-moving line _without_ having to secure a window. With or without that added charge, you still have to be an advanced planner to get anything done at Disney! I also _wish_ I could say that I knew exactly what you meant when you said that the Mexico pavilion smelled like Casa Bonita walking in 🥲 SOME DAY! Can't wait to experience Journey of Water. We laughed out loud at the "and this is where we're at" comparison haha maybe Dreamer's Point is underutilized by the general public, but you can bet that we'll be spending a lot of time there! Great video, y'all. Happy Birthday Jamie! ✨

It does make sense because that’s probably the day most locals come out! It was still a great day and we were really just there to enjoy time at one of our favorite parks and celebrate Jamie’s birthday. Totally agree on genie + and it was a refreshing change to try out universal’s expedited queue system back when we visited in November. Some day you will smell casa Bonita and understand 😂 but when you smell casa Bonita you may conversely think “hey! This smells like the Mexico pavilion!” 😅 Casa Bonita is a deeply ingrained memory for me and my family. Not sure if you caught it, but in the Magic kingdom day when my mom and sister visited I kept in the cut when we were going up the big Thunder lift hill and my mom said “it smells like casa bonita” and it made me laugh because that’s what I always say too. Journey of water was awesome. Such a great addition that feels very “Epcot” while still having some subtle IP that works well. Doesn’t take a huge amount of space and has a lot to offer packed into a tighter area. Definitely a good way to engage guests outside of just rides and shows - and it can help cool down on a hot day. I was skeptical about Journey of water at first, but am pleased to say I quite enjoyed it and think it’s a wonderful fit. We’re still not sure exactly how we feel about the whole of world celebration, especially after seeing some of the videos of communicore open now - but only time will tell! Maybe we will love it and it will be utilized very well in the park and make Epcot feel complete again. Excited for that test track retheme too 😎 Thanks so much for watching 😊

Always hopeful for the future and excited to see what does happen for the parks and Walt Disney company 😊

@@happilyeverdevines1225 the dance hall was definitely an interesting place, but it’s nice that Disney does offer some nightlife on the boardwalk that’s open later for adults. Since we stayed at CBR we love being able to go over there on the Skyliner! We’ve played that lobster game like 5 times now… nothing yet 😅 we always get so close! Agreed on the Boardwalk pizza - it wasn’t the best, and riviera has far superior quick service pizza along with several other places. But Boardwalk pizza definitely wasn’t bad and I still enjoyed it as a nice late night meal! Coming from Chicago we’re used to pretty good pizza, so there’s nothing in Disney that quite stacks up - although via Napoli is our favorite on property.

Still to this day we've never even set foot on one of the Port Orleans properties! We really ought to have by now, given how many times we've revisited old favorites as far as on-property accommodations. The Treehouse Villas, Cascade Cabins and Polynesian Bungalows, on the other hand, are all bucket list stays which the bucket may well beat us to 😬 But it's fun to dream! Your sandwich may have been messy, Arie, but it looked amazing. As a sauce boy at heart, any sandwich that comes with its own dip is a top priority! Agree that the 'down in the bayou' vibe of the resort after dark is really something special....and glad to hear that the Mickey Beignets did not disappoint! You already know what I have to say about Encanto. 😂 Great video you guys!

The vibes at both resorts are really fun & each has its own unique feel. The only thing that has kept us from staying at one this far is… the lack of Skyliner lol. The bungalows and treehouses are definitely bucket list stays for us. The food was actually pretty good for a quick service! Definitely had some solid options. A sandwich with some sauce or a dip is always quite a treat indeed! The beignets were delicious - so glad we were able to finally try a Mickey beignets after dreaming about them for years.
