It’s our last retroactive trip report! This episode we look back at our 16-day trip to Disney World in August of 2021. The parks were still in pandemic mode and we had a LOT of DVC points to spend or lose. Our 3-bedroom suites at Animal Kingdom and Bay Lake Tower, and a 2-bedroom suite at Riviera, were great escapes from the heat and humidity!

This week we’re joined by Chris, aka DCL Cruising Dad, to talk about the Magic that is Disney Cruise Line. No, literally, he recently went on the Magic for the first time in a long time and was excited to share all about it. She may be the oldest ship in the Disney fleet, but she still offers an amazing vacation to her guests, and this cruise featured a stop a DCL’s newest destination - Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point.

Evidently, in spooky season VIP tours turn into RIP tours at Universal Studios theme parks. This week, in honor of the holiday this week, we’re talking about Alicea’s evening at Universal Studios Hollywood’s Halloween Horror Nights where she, Sterling, Kaitlyn, and a good friend Sanae enjoyed the RIP Tour. They got quick access to all the haunted houses, a meal and snacks, some special tour-only surprises, and generally had a frighteningly good time.

After hours parties at Disneyland can be frighteningly fun, especially when your host is none other than Oogie Boogie himself! Alicea and Sterling recently enjoyed the spooky season spectacular Oogie Boogie Bash, stayed at the reimagined Pixar Place Hotel, and even got a special visit with Mickey and Minnie at Club 33, which was decked out for the Haunted Mansion’s 55th anniversary. There’s a special bonus at the end of this episode too - enjoy!

Sometimes your vacations don’t go exactly as planned. Sometimes the plan is completely thrown out the window, which is what happened to us in March of 2020 on the Disney Wonder’s westbound Panama Canal cruise. BUT if you think that sounds like a disaster, you couldn’t be farther from the truth. Listen in to hear why this was the best cruise ever, and why we compare every other vacation against it.

Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party, or MNSSHP if you’re in the know, is a fun event during the spooky season in Florida. But because it’s in Florida, that means it doesn’t always go as planned. We had tickets to this special-ticketed event at Magic Kingdom a week or so ago and, while we did have fun, it was a reminder that Florida weather can and most likely will impact your park plans. Just remember to go with the flow and you’ll still have a frighteningly good time.

Turnabout is fair play, so the saying goes, and last week we put that to the test. We flew from Seattle to Orlando to surprise our amazing friends with a visit and to crash Bill’s 50th birthday party weekend. It was Nathan’s birthday weekend too, so needless to say shenanigans ensued - plus visits to all 4 Disney World parks.

We’re continuing our occasional series looking at Disney Vacation Club resorts with an overview of the original DVC location - Disney’s Old Key West Resort. This sprawling campus has over 500 rooms across 50+ buildings, and offers some of the biggest rooms available to DVC guests. Olivia’s Cafe is worth a visit even if you aren’t staying on property, and Disney Springs is just a short boat ride away.

We’re taking a look ahead at the upcoming D23 convention and making a few predictions on what we might hear about when we’re there. Disney has committed to spending a LOT of money on Parks and Experiences over the next decade, and we’re making some educated guesses on what they might talk about. We’ve got hopes; we’ve got dreams; we’ve got opinions. What are yours? We’d love to hear!

This week we dial the time machine back to our last Disney visit in the before times, a road trip to Disneyland in June of 2019. We took the scenic route down the Pacific coast and made it in time for our very first Club 33 visit and the grand opening period of Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge in Disneyland. Will Alicea ever let Nathan plan a road trip vacation again? Give a listen to find out!

This week we’re talking to Mike, one of Nathan’s coworkers, who recently enjoyed an evening at Victoria & Albert’s with his family. V&A’s is one of the ultimate dining experiences you can have anywhere, not just Disney World, racking up numerous awards including a coveted Michelin Star. Lots of surprises in this one, including a 13 year old requesting albino caviar and a small peek behind the curtain of the exclusive Club 33 at Disney World!
