    In this lively and relatable episode of My Simplified Life, Michelle Glogovac and Stephanie Hockersmith share candid reflections on recent family vacations, the chaos of end-of-school-year activities, and the art of juggling parenting with personal time. From cruise ship competitions and school projects to navigating theme park rides with kids, Michelle and Stephanie dive into the real-life moments that define modern motherhood. They chat about family dynamics at Disney and Epcot, the magic of creating lasting memories, and how ride preferences can spark deeper insights into our kids' personalities. The conversation also touches on the importance of conservation, finding everyday peace amidst chaos, and why summer is the perfect time to reconnect—with your family and yourself. To wrap up, they share their most-anticipated summer book picks and how the right read can shift your mindset, inspire growth, and spark joy. Whether you're planning your own family trip or just trying to survive the summer shuffle, this episode offers laughs, heart, and a reminder that stories—both lived and read—matter deeply. What We're Talking About... Vacation can feel like another dimension. It's important to romanticize everyday life. Real life often interrupts our vacation mindset. Family trips can create lasting memories. Unexpected talents can emerge in fun situations. School projects often fall on parents' shoulders. End of school year can be hectic for families. Summer should be a time for relaxation and fun. Traveling with family requires careful planning. Finding joy in small moments is essential. Stephanie shares her fear of Ferris wheels and how she copes with it. The Matterhorn ride at Disneyland is nostalgic but physically challenging. Children have unique preferences and fears regarding rides. Conversations about respecting children's choices in activities are important. Cooper's passion for conservation shines through in his interests. Finding moments of peace in daily life is crucial for mental health. Books can provide inspiration and refresh our minds. Anticipating summer reads can be an exciting experience. Women have historically shown incredible strength and resilience. Literature can be a source of joy and connection.  Chapters 00:00 Vacation Reflections and Family Adventures 03:03 The Joys and Challenges of Family Life 05:58 Cruise Competition and Unexpected Talents 08:48 Back to Reality: School Projects and Responsibilities 12:04 Navigating the End of School Year 15:00 Summer Plans and Travel Discussions 18:42 Thrills and Chills at Theme Parks 22:34 Family Dynamics and Ride Preferences 24:59 Passion for Conservation and Nature 29:30 Finding Peace Amidst Chaos 30:47 Books That Inspire and Refresh 36:28 Anticipating Summer Reads

    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. We're excited to share what works, what doesn't, and how our Disney strategy continues to evolve!Please Check Out Our Links Below:  Our Sponsor:www.travelplannererica.com Email Us:circleofparks@gmail.com Our Website:www.circleofparks.com Facebook:www.facebook.com/circleofparks Instagram:www.instagram.com/circleofparks X:www.x.com/circleofparks Ad Music:Carefree Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 Licensehttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Music promoted on https://www.chosic.com/free-music/all/Send us a textSupport the show

    Today, Ali LaHood shares how she had a Walt Disney World Wedding for just $23,000, with a ceremony at the Wedding Pavilion and a full reception at Germany Promenade A–D in EPCOT. This amount covered everything she paid Disney for—even a Guardians of the Galaxy ride mix-in and a Magic Kingdom Portrait Session—but not things Disney doesn't provide, like the officiant and the gown. The main way Ali kept costs down was to limit the guest list to 15 people, but in this episode she also shares lots of other money-saving tips you can implement at your Disney wedding or vow renewal!

    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.

    Len Testa and Jim Hill break down the surprisingly intense history of Epcot's Mission: Space—from launch-day astronauts and jetpack stunts to the guest experience that made this ride one of Disney's most regretted one-and-dones. The Grand Opening – Jetpacks, Walter Cronkite, Buzz Aldrin, and a fireworks display that nearly gave journalists flashbacks. What Went Wrong – Mission: Space didn't just thrill—it made people sick, killed plants, and gave Epcot's custodial team nightmares. The Shrubbery Crisis – Yes, protein spills killed the landscaping. Fixing the Fail – How Disney added trash cans, benches, cold air, and a non-spinning version of the ride (that's actually better). Ride Longevity – Why guests rarely re-ride, and how Mission: Space quietly became the least essential thrill ride at Walt Disney World.

    We're back to answer an awesome variety of questions straight from our Facebook page and community group! From practical planning tips to some really fun hypotheticals, this episode is packed with listener-driven content that blends helpful advice with plenty of playful Disney banter.We kick things off by talking about how we personally keep the magic alive in the parks—even after countless visits—and which EPCOT festival stands out as our favorite and why. Jason asked where to find the best quick service and sit-down breakfasts, while Jennifer wanted to know if Lightning Lane is even necessary during the slower days in January.We also take on a fun round of favorites, sharing our go-to snacks and rides in both Disneyland and Disney California Adventure, and even admit which Disney characters we crushed on as kids. Longtime listener Anthony asked how the podcast came to be, and what Jeremy does for his brother—something we've mentioned before but never really dug into.Then there's a great question about park hopping and how to make the most of a quick 3- or 4-day trip—perfect for anyone who can't take a full week off. Olivia sent in a deep Disney thought, wondering if all the plates and utensils in Beauty and the Beast were once people… and what happened to them after the curse was lifted?We also dive into nostalgia, talk about our experiences with cast members at Disney vs. Universal, share which rides we wish included PhotoPass, and even get to dream up a ride of our own. And of course, there's a fun magical twist: if each of us got three genie wishes—what would we wish for?With a mix of heart, humor, and helpful tips, this episode is a celebration of you—the Main Street Magic community—and the questions that keep the magic going.MEI-Travel – Expertise.
