Lol yes! (And yes about the convention folk too!)

It’s a lovely resort! I wish we had time to explore more of it.
 

I will try my best to describe what's going on, but for some of it I'm not sure. :rotfl:
Batuu stuff :rotfl::

Bringing back an old fave: #ThanksPhotopass :laughing: Honestly, the majority of my PP photos could use that hashtag :laughing:

Ideally it'll be April 17th-25th
Awesome! And you won't have to worry about snow storms or hurricanes this time around :thumbsup2

Would you pick the first week it's running or the second?
What do you think the differences will be crowd-wise? That would play strongly into my decision, but I also get the appeal of your other considerations, too!

Haha, well I thought that last year and then Baltimore had a tornado and we got stuck in Denver for the night :laughing: But hopefully that was a one time thing.

Opening weekend is probably more crowded, but we’ve done both before and it just depends on the day imo. The last few years Fridays have been the most crowded I’ve seen. We also are considering getting the every night EP ticket so we might not have to worry. I did just find out a Supernatural convention is in the area the first weekend, and I’ve always wanted to try going to one so that’s pushing me towards that weekend. (Although then I get to figure out how we’ll do both haha) If we can leave on Thurs instead of Fri we’d have the same amount of nights too.



 
Guess who decided to show up to this party??

This is the first time I've been back on the Dis since getting back from this trip...two months ago?? I just couldn't bring myself to do it, I don't know why. I think it's because for the first time in like six years I don't have a trip planned :sad::sad:

From the vlogs I've realized that nothing about me looks good when the camera is below me looking up, LOL. They are all bringing back fun memories though, and I feel like I'm out of my "avoid all things trip" mood.

You have officially got me onboard the Horror Nights train, and I find myself missing it a LOT and often. I am still surprised by how many people had babies and little kids with them. That was weird.

While watching the first day of Disney vlog with the safari :rotfl: I think the first thing I told Matt and the boys about when i got home was the lady on the safari exclaiming over every.single.thing.she.saw. And then I am watching and I hear, "ooh look at that" while the flamingos are on screen and I died. It's 100% how my grandparents would be if they were there.

OMG! I was so far behind!!!!!

Next we were checking into the Gran Destino:

I have a version of this as my screen saver on my phone. So beautiful! I didn't quote your comment about checking in but we had a rough check in there as well. I hope they work out there issues.

And we decided to head to Three Bridges Bar & Grill to finish off our Food & Wine-ing:

Three Bridges Bar & Grill Review

I have to hop over and read about how you guys liked 3 Bridges. We loved it BUT we were there early, so there was NOT a lot of drunk conventioners.
 
Love your Disney Halloween Party pics.....it looks so beautiful and yes, I’m sure you were both happier than the picture shows.......lol......

But the Pirates boat.....oh my.....it was funny it looked like you all agreed before hand to look not very happy....well, apart from that one guy.....there’s always one!!

Very odd about the woman asking if you needed help.......

As for HHN.......I’m a fan of the opening weekend.....although you’re right about the first Friday‘s being mobbed out!!! That was among our busiest nights last few years......but.......I’d still vote for it.......there’s something about the firsts of the event......and over the next nights you see it progress......but if you do go with EP for all your nights, it’ll be fine......:thumbsup2

Enjoying your report a lot!! You do both look like you’re having a blast with some lovely pictures.....
 
As a result of this I'll probably be vlogging less in the Disney parks when we go
:sad: I totally get it though. I'd have the same reservations and concerns. I can understand the desire to make content safe for kids, but... the new policies also don't seem flawless to me by any stretch. I don't like the inability to search aspect at all. I guess we'll see how it all plays out.

But I also figured a Disney channel name might get me flagged as a kids channel.
Good point.

However fear not @Tracy161 my into will stay the same! (With the addition of my new channel name).
Phew! :thumbsup2 THANK YOU!

I wrote that we got back around 1 am, and also I'm apparently repressing the memory of a near death experience, because I don't remember this but my notes state: "Bus driver almost killed us, went the wrong way, and stopped abruptly."

I remember this! He missed one of the bus stops at the resort and almost ran over a curb/bushes which is why he slammed on the brakes and then backed up to go the right way, LOL.

I definitely repressed this memory :laughing: But now that you say that I do kind of remember that. We ended Mickey's Not So Scary with the scariest bus ride ever. :rotfl:
 
I was super far behind and quoted like a billion things so sorry for this marathon reply lol.

giphy.gif


I don't know either. Was he hoping despite being on my way to a theme park I'd be like "You know what sir you're right, I am too old for this!"

Thank you sir- I have seen the light and will immediately cancel this vacation and go home.

Paper straws and Butterbeer work terribly together btw.

Ugh that is the most accurate thing I've ever seen lol

Most importantly....Halloween decorations!

Super far behind here but I love them.


Oo I love this!

I promise you we didn't cause any mayhem :rotfl: that's just the name of the lagoon show at HHN

:rotfl: :rotfl:

I liked the little show, but wished there was more little things like that in the scare zone.

I agree.

I know they have a "zombie kill of the week" show that rotates characters, but somehow that was never going on while we were there.

We never saw it either. :confused3:confused3

For some reason they gave us these little arcade looking tickets when we got in line this night. They served 0 purpose whatsoever but I guess I felt the need to document them.

They gave us those last year at the Halloween house and were super serious about us giving them back. Then this year we didn't get them at 1000 corpses but they asked us for it when we got near the front and when we said we never got one, they just said ok. I don't get it either lol

I love the Killer Klowns part, but honestly the whole show is good, and it was never crowded.

Agreed. It was great!

then she told us we couldn't add him... just no. Like she was hoping we wouldn't ask again if she said no. The flat out "no" to what I thought would be simple thing kind of surprised me.

So strange. I would've expected that to be a pretty easy thing.

Then we went on a safari that featured a commentary by the woman behind us. She would exclaim to her family anytime she saw anything at all, and then repeat something the driver had just said.

Oh my lol. That would drive me nuts.

My favorite thing they had added this year, was the Appleseed Orchard Cider Bar so of course I took the most terrible picture anyone's ever taken and then didn't take any others to show you how nice it was .

Mine too and my pictures of it are also awful lol.

Also I was not planning on calling bathrooms, refreshers

:rotfl::rotfl:

Also a little poll for our HHN trip (because I'll have to pick the week for that too):
Would you pick the first week it's running or the second?

This is late so I'm not sure if it matters anymore lol but I say the 1st week especially since it's an anniversary year!

a lady (just another guest), randomly asked us while we were waiting for the elevator if we needed her to show us where anything was.

:confused3:confused3 How strange. I could see my DBF saying yes and then coming up with the most random things for her to show us lol.

My favorite guy in the Pirates queue was this guy :rotfl: He screamed when he saw this man's light up necklace and said that it was sorcery.

:rotfl::rotfl:

Samantha's favorite "the man who needs a key but could easily walk out of the room" was another returning character.

:rotfl::rotfl: I thought that guy was hysterical also.

THEY NEVER PUT THE GHOST IN!!!:rotfl:

:rotfl::rotfl:We have one from HHN where they didn't add the zombie in so we look completely ridiculous lol.

Also a Youtube Update

Thank you for the explanation. I was watching a Tim Tracker video today where they briefly mentioned it and I wasn't really sure what they were talking about. I get why youtube is doing it but I feel like there's gotta be a better system.
 
You are right sir they are not for adults, which I am. I have now grown up and must leave :rotfl:

giphy.gif


hateddd all the paper straws, so many gross mushy messes and wondering if it's even worth it to finish a drink.

Yeah before we went, I kept seeing posts on facebook about people bringing their own straws and I was thinking it was dramatic. Then suddenly I was wishing I had my own straws lol

I've heard they were every 10 mins, but also don't know anyone who's seen it so did they even happen? :laughing:

:rotfl: :rotfl: I feel like they were a lie lol. We sat in that scare zone for like 15-20 minutes at one point and it definitely didn't happen.

No problem! It's something I've been a little stressed about even though I'm a smaller channel. Frankly, with their content I thought it'd affect the Trackers channel more, and felt like they didn't really go into it enough. I know they were trying to remain positive, but I would think they would have to make major changes because they do character interactions a lot, but I also realize with the baby coming they have more on their plate than just that. I was kind of hoping to hear what they planned to do because it would help me decide what to do.

Yeah they brushed over it so briefly which surprises me after your explanation cause they clearly make their living on youtube. Maybe they already know something we don't?
