Yeah and we'd have been charged if we didn't get it corrected. No idea what happened, but they didn't even apologise (other than the CM who fixed it for us) but the manager came over and was just like "oopsie". Don't think we'll rush back there!

I have to say it was not very impressed by the Animal Kingdom part of Disney,the enclosures seemed very small and it seemed very uninteresting.
@ParkPioneer 2 ай бұрын
The parts of the enclosures that you can see is a small area compared to what they actually have. The part on the Caring For Giants / Safari area is just what they use for socialising the different families, but there's other areas behind that. From what we've seen, the elephants were interested in the enclosure with lots of things for them to lift and carry, and food hidden in puzzles for them.

What was the lemon dessert?
@ParkPioneer 2 ай бұрын
It's the signature dessert at Bull and Bear. They take a full lemon and cook it in syrup, then make the skin into a candy and fill it with a lemon sorbet and lemon curd. There's also a biscuit and cream element, but it all is presented inside the original lemon. I've no idea how they manage it, but it tastes amazing and they serve it all at the table to make it into little bite sized pieces. It's amazing 😁

Hi guys, loved the video! Dan is definitely Jo in the skyliners - he enjoys riding them but hates it when they stop as he's scared of heights and he yells if I start to rock the gondola! 😂 All those breakfast options looked so tasty! The Behind the Seeds tour was great wasn't it! We were about a week behind you doing it so couldn't compare notes when we saw you in the parks but we loved it too! Did you see any of the little anole lizards running through the sand in there? They're so cute and are an unintentional pest control as they snuck in to eat the bugs 😊 We didn't spot the layout maps in World of Disney and we went in multiple times 😂 We weren't impressed with that grey Haunted Mansion suit material either which was a pity as we like the style .. though the big join of fabric down the back seemed weird. Those framed pin sets were so fun weren't they! We took photos of them all as are framing our complete sets and want to add decorations to them 😊. Those Yzma prints are lovely! We saw them too as we're also Emperor's New Groove fans and wanted to buy them because our cats are named Yzma and Kronk but couldn't justify the expense in the end .. hopefully they'll be there next September! LOL. We're looking forward to your next vlog to see what you thought of Caring for Giants 🐘🐘xx

The Skyliner is the best and worst thing ever lol Absolutely terrifies me! All lizards are adorable, but the ones living in The Land were particularly cute for how they ran across the sand!

Hi guys! Another great video! That breakfast at Steakhouse 71 looks delicious, weve never been in there yet! Yeah those tram tracks are always an ankle-twisting risk, especially when wet! LOL OMG we never knew anything about those DVC Magicband sliders!! Having just googled them whilst watching you, it turns out they are a returning item from last year - how did we not know sooner?? LOL.. now we have to wait til next September to hope they still do them! 😂 We can confirm that the cobwebs on the Stitch sweater are glow in the dark - Dan has one of them! (Obviously! Its Stitch! LMAO) That Hoop De Doo meal and show looked so fun! Another one we've not got around to yet - we may have to do it next year when we go with friends! ❤

The sliders are like hens teeth! We've been trying to get them since we joined DVC and never had any luck! We got 2 of the last 3 that the booth in MK (near where the new DVC lounge is going) had! I think Steakhouse 71 might be our favourite breakfast place on property. It's just always been superb. Hoop Dee Doo was good, but probably a one and done for us.

Great travel day guys. I (Dan) hate flying so I was with you when you were getting nervous. Glad you managed to take off in the end with no issues and didn't make you too late. I have looked at Global Entry but it looked like a pain to set up but might have to look into it again. We spent way too much on pins when we were there, we always do so I think it is perfectly fine to buy pins on your first day. Looking forward to the rest of the series. X
@ParkPioneer 3 ай бұрын
Andy thinks I’m only a nervous flyer when I’m with him because I have to fly for work and always manage it 😂 Global Entry sounds more complicated than it is to be honest. You do a UK government check similar to the DBS, get a code then do an application to the US using that code. Once that’s approved you just do the final paperwork on arrival to the US. For the two website bits we had a decision within 3 weeks then just waited until we next went to WDW to finish it off. Think it cost about £150 per person, but it’s valid for 5 years. Pins will always be my downfall, along with plush, ears, spirit jerseys and anything cute 😂
