Imagine experiencing Walt Disney World without the stress, phone battery anxiety, or exhaustion that often accompanies a theme park vacation. That's exactly what we discovered on our recent seven-day adventure through Disney's magical world.Our journey began at Blizzard Beach water park, taking advantage of the free entry offered to resort guests on check-in day. Unlike the sometimes overwhelming Typhoon Lagoon, Blizzard Beach proved more navigable and family-friendly, setting the perfect tone for our vacation. Afterward, we checked into the elegant Grand Destino Tower at Coronado Springs, where Spanish-inspired design and relaxing ambiance created an upscale retreat from park excitement.The game-changer for our trip? Lightning Lane Multi-Passes. Yes, we spent an additional $725, but the freedom this investment provided transformed our experience completely. Without constantly checking our phones for return times or standing in lengthy queues, we discovered a more relaxed approach to Disney that we didn't know was possible.Each day brought new delights as we explored the parks at our own pace. At EPCOT, we walked right onto Soarin' while others rushed to Guardians of the Galaxy, savoring the often-overlooked attraction without crowds. Hollywood Studios surprised us with impressive new shows featuring The Little Mermaid and Disney Villains, both showcasing technology and storytelling that exceeded our expectations. And Animal Kingdom delivered perhaps the best safari experience we've ever had, with nearly every animal visible and active.One unexpected revelation: taking occasional breaks from each other made our family time more meaningful. Those 30-45 minutes of "me time" – whether wandering Galaxy's Edge with a Gold Squadron Lager or people-watching from a bench near Cinderella Castle – prevented friction and recharged everyone's spirits.From watching fireworks at the Polynesian beach to discovering what might be Disney property's best burger at D-Luxe Burger, our unhurried approach uncovered magic we'd previously rushed past. We followed our Disney adventure with four days at Vero Beach Resort, where we discovered buffalo-tossed Disney chicken tenders that should absolutely make their way to the parks!Ready to experience Disney differently? Let our journey inspire you to slow down, prioritize enjoyment over exhaustion, and discover the true magic that happens when you're not checking the time.

We're diving into the incredible storytelling that makes Walt Disney World more than just rides—we're talking about the attraction backstories that set the stage, build the world, and give purpose to your entire experience. We count down our top 5 favorite ride backstories, plus a few bonus picks, breaking down what makes each one so special and how the story starts long before you ever board a vehicle.From haunted hotels and ancient Yeti legends to time-traveling missions and space-saving Guardians, we're exploring how Imagineers use queue design, pre-shows, and deep lore to completely pull you into the narrative.Whether you love diving deep into Disney lore or you're just realizing some of these rides even have a story, this episode is all about celebrating the immersive worlds that make Disney magic truly next level.MEI-Travel – Expertise.

We're taking you on a wild and wonderful ride through Fort Wilderness and beyond! First, we share a quick overview of our car camping experience at Disney's Fort Wilderness Resort—from setup tips to what makes this rustic getaway such a unique way to stay on Disney property.Then, it's all about the food and drinks! We review dinner at Crockett's Tavern, including hearty bites and laid-back lodge vibes, then head to the brand-new GEO-82 lounge at EPCOT for some creative mocktails and modern appetizers with a retro-futuristic twist. We also return to one of our all-time favorites, Geyser Point at Wilderness Lodge, to see if it still holds up for great food and atmosphere. Finally, we wrap things up in style with a rooftop breakfast at Topolino's Terrace—because nothing says “Disney magic” like fresh pastries, character charm, and a sunrise over the Riviera.So whether you're roughing it in a car or dining in elegance 10 stories up, we've got all the flavors, fun, and Fort Wilderness flair covered.MEI-Travel – Expertise.

Chris and Tim come at you this week talking a whole lot about the opening day of Epic Universe and the fact that people waited 5 hours to ride The Battle of The Ministry. The guys also discuss the Savannah Bananas being at Disneyland and new 70th anniversary items at Disneyland Resort.

The countdown is on—just four days until our family's epic Walt Disney World adventure begins! After months of anticipation, we're pulling back the curtain on our meticulously crafted vacation strategy that balances maximum fun with minimal stress.Our journey starts with a strategic overnight in Atlanta before heading to Blizzard Beach on arrival day. We're excited to experience both Disney water parks across different trips, having conquered Typhoon Lagoon last year. This time, we're staying at Coronado Springs' Grand Destino Tower, where we'll celebrate our 15th wedding anniversary at Three Bridges Bar & Grill overlooking the resort's beautiful lake.One major change this trip? We're abandoning our traditional rope-drop routine! After years of early morning park rushes, we're embracing a more relaxed approach with Disney's new multi-pass system. At over $700 for our family, it's a significant investment we'll be evaluating throughout our stay. Is the convenience worth the premium price? We'll be reporting back!Each park day has been thoughtfully planned: Epcot with extended World Showcase exploration (where our boys have finally developed an appreciation for international experiences), Hollywood Studios with substantial time in Galaxy's Edge and catching the new Little Mermaid show, Animal Kingdom's safari adventures, and a perfectly-paced Magic Kingdom finale. We've incorporated strategic rest days, including pool time and a split day where half of us will venture to Universal while the others enjoy a character breakfast and resort exploration.The Disney Dining Plan adds another dimension to our experience. Is it truly the value proposition Disney promises? We'll be conducting live dining reviews throughout our trip at spots like Connections Eatery, La Cantina de San Angel, and Flame Tree Barbecue to find out! After our park adventures, we're capping the vacation with four blissful days at Disney's Vero Beach Resort—the perfect blend of Disney magic and coastal relaxation.Whether you're planning your own Disney getaway or simply enjoy vicarious vacation thrills, join us as we navigate the parks with insider knowledge gained from multiple trips.

The landscape of Walt Disney World is shifting dramatically, with major transformations coming to every park. From Dinoland USA becoming a vibrant Central Americas-themed land featuring Encanto and Indiana Jones, to Tom Sawyer Island making way for a Cars attraction, these changes represent Disney's evolving approach to park experiences.We dive deep into what these transformations mean for the Disney experience, exploring the tension between nostalgic attractions and Disney's push toward more recognizable intellectual properties. The upcoming Villains Land behind Big Thunder Mountain promises thrilling new experiences without replacing existing attractions, while Hollywood Studios will soon feature a Monsters Inc land with an innovative suspended coaster based on the door conveyor system from the beloved film.These changes raise important questions: Is Disney losing some of its original magic by replacing unique Imagineering creations with movie tie-ins? Or is this evolution necessary to compete with Universal's Epic Universe and appeal to younger generations? We consider whether the Disney experience has improved or declined since 2019, discussing the loss of beloved perks like Magical Express and free FastPass while acknowledging the exciting new attractions on the horizon.We also share our upcoming plans to test the new Multi-Pass system during our next trip, estimating we'll spend around $500 extra for our family of four to access all premium ride options. Will the convenience justify the cost? Is the Free Dining package actually saving money when factoring in required add-ons like Park Hopper tickets? These practical considerations reflect the changing economics of a Disney vacation in today's landscape.Whether you're a Disney purist concerned about these changes or excited to experience the new attractions, this episode provides thoughtful perspective on what Walt Disney World's transformation means for different types of visitors.

What began as "Russian Mountains" evolved across Europe, and eventually, found their way to the good ol' U.S. of A... In 1884, one man wanted to use his vast fortune--NO! Not to help anyone!--to keep a recently re-unioned American population from getting too drunk, too horny, and too gambly... So he built himself a roller coaster, and with it, he made even more money (which he did not share), but at least he gave us all the gift of post-mule speeds, and the exhilaration that comes with it! Join us to learn about the FIRST ROLLER COASTER! Plus, we get Springy in the MouthGarf Report, and especially confounding (and that's saying something) in I See What You Did There!Sources:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roller_coaster#Russian_Mountainshttps://www.thevintagenews.com/2018/10/24/roller-coasters/https://www.smithsonianmag.com/innovation/14-fun-facts-about-roller-coasters-180972920/ Please give us a 5 star rating on Apple Podcasts! Want to ask us a question?

We're kicking off our multi-day Disneyland trip report with everything that went down on Day 1—from coast-to-coast travel logistics to indulging in incredible food and drink around Downtown Disney.We start with trip planning details, including why we chose this time of year, how far in advance we booked, total costs, and what it took to get from Florida to Anaheim. We break down our travel day experience, our choice of transportation, and what it's like navigating the journey from the airport to the magic.Next, we dive into our stay at the charming and historic Candy Cane Inn, including fun facts (like how it was almost named the “Cinderella Inn” until Walt stepped in), amenities, and why it might be the best off-property value near Disneyland.Then we explore Downtown Disney, grabbing a bite at Naples Ristorante e Bar (spoiler: the Prosciutto e Melone pizza and mocktails are winners), shopping at World of Disney, and taking in the luxurious ambiance of Disney's Grand Californian Hotel.Our evening wraps up with refreshing drinks—including an impressive non-alcoholic lineup—at Ballast Point Brewing Co., a flavorful dinner at the newly reimagined Jazz Kitchen Coastal Grill & Patio, and a sweet stop at Beignets Expressed.MEI-Travel – Expertise.
