Detailed Toy Story Land Early Morning Magic Review + Tiffins Dinner | Day 2 | January 28, 2019

[@alliea8244]

Love watching these during my Disney Withdrawals. I am looking forward to seeing how your trips change with Nora.

[@catieanniev1065]

I am loving the Disney content! As someone who is going through Disney withdrawals, this hits the spot! Thanks for sharing! I bet it is so fun going back through your footage and maybe even like reliving your trip!

[@BlairLamb]

It is so much fun going through the footage but MAN does it make me want to go back!! haha!

[@catieanniev1065]

@@BlairLamb You will just have to! ;)

[@joannsalas7015]

This was the best video to really get a good look at Toy Story land without the crowds. It's been so hard to see a lot of the detail in other vlogs, (not their fault) but with you getting there so early, without the crowds, you can really see it. And it looks great! I'm not a roller coaster person, so I'll be skipping Slinky Dog lol. I'm glad you mentioned about using Lyft. I have heard from others that they enjoy using it better to save on parking fees, and/or getting to the parks quicker than the Disney transportation. I love those pullover's! Tiffins - wow that bread! The key chain is beautiful! Thank you so much for sharing and the review. I think Disney will know who you are sooner then you think. :-)

[@isabelrivera6891]

I love rewatching these videos

[@clairexcassar]

We went to extra magic hours for Hollywood Studios and essentially walked on to Slinky Dog Dash and Toy Story Mania- So much fun and cool considering we couldn't get fast passes! We went to 50s Prime Time Diner for dinner which I loved-such a fun experience and good food. Got a sticker for the clean plate club!

[@Erickajg]

My family and I are planning our Disney trip for this summer. This is something that I’m going to mentioned this to them. I like how you can ride and really see toy story land without the big crowds of people. Love watching your Disney vlogs!!

[@christinamauro494]

Like all things in Disney World, I was blown away by the attention to detail the engineers put into building and designing Toy Story Land! Slinky Dog Dash is awesome, and was - in my opinion - a much needed and wonderful addition to Hollywood Studios. My in laws love to do Early Morning Magic in the Magic Kingdom on their Disney trips, and I've always wondered if it's worth doing...so while you guys did it in Hollywood Studios, I appreciate your in depth recap of how it all worked. I think rope drop might be the way to do for us - especially with a baby who sleeps in!

[@terahsalazar4887]

Rewatching in June 2020 while washing dishes because I miss Disney so much! So thanks for the vlogs! Gives me a little piece of Disney!

[@leighwitty8715]

We did After Hours at DHS. We loved it. We aren't the best early morning people! We did everything we wanted to do as many times as we wanted. We could have stayed longer but, it was our travel day and we were tired so we didn't even stay the entire time. I definitely think that the ticketed events are the best way to get a lot of rides in with really low crowds. It actually was a little odd for there to be so few people there! Another thing that I liked about the After Hours event was that Rock n Roller Coaster and Tower of Tower were included along with Toy Story Land. Slinky Dog Dash and Toy Story Land are my new favorites!

[@TwinMamaAsh]

EMM seems awesome! Will be awesome once Star Wars land opens! Will be great to do all of that before the crowds lol

[@MainStreetandMickey]

What a fun day!! I got to do the Passholder Play time in Toy Story Land last year and it’s amazing how empty it was! Definitely the best time to enjoy the rides and all the details. We ended up doing Lyft rides a lot on our trip last month and you’re right it was nice to avoid the crowded buses!

[@hailiesnider3991]

Am I literally obsessed with your vlogs?? Yes, yes I am. They are awesome! I’ve probably watched this whole playlist like three times

[@akajol]

Great vlog. I love getting to love vicariously through you.... I’m soooo homesick for Disney, but won’t get to go back for at least another 3-4 years. I have been eyeing the Spirit Jerseys for a long time. Certain on my wish list... and I love the purple even more than the “rose gold” from last year. Great choice girl!

[@shannonkirkpatrick7999]

Will u include a comparison of the dining plan vs not using the dining plan in your expectations video?

[@BlairLamb]

I can to a degree, but as you'll find out in vlog #4, we ended up with a dining plan we didn't pay for. It was a really crazy (and fun!) glitch. We ended up having a dining plan on this trip once again!

[@rach5516]

We loved toy story kand, we were there in September and the heat/sun was ferocious. There is just no shade. I took an umbrella that was heat reflective. I wouldn't have made it through the slinky dog line without it.

[@MrsMinYoongi_93]

We loved early morning magic! We’ll definitely do it every time we go as long as they continue to offer it. We enjoyed the food 😊 I’m trying out the after hours event at AK in April and I’m super excited!!

[@avgeek3255]

Tower of Terror literally terrifies me! I've never had the courage to try it ;) These Disney vlogs are inspiring me to plan a future Disney trip with our baby when he's a little older and can appreciate all the magic! :)

[@neyshaortega6245]

those sweaters are soooo pretty!! so kind and generous of her!!

[@dqfanautig]

Blair - thank you so much for all your detailed videos with Disney!! Keep it coming! Enjoy your channel! Happy Valentine's Day to you and Riley!

[@Hamerson321]

There are 2 reservation times. 7 and 7:30. If you choose 7 they want you to eat Breakfast first and the 7:30 group to ride the rides. Then the idea is to switch. The 7:30 group to finish up rides and then eat.

[@veronicacoates8832]

We didn't really get a chance to enjoy TS Land because it was packed to the MAX and we had 3 kids and a double stroller trying to maneuver the crowds was horrendous. We did Hollywood studios on our 6th day and were outright exhausted. We ended up only spending 1/2 a day there (the kids did Jedi Training). This was our first trip a few months ago. We can't wait to go back and maybe plan a little differently. Will definitely consider he Early Morning Magic for next time!

[@laurensawyer330]

Great day at Hollywood Studios & Animal Kingdom! The early morning magic sounded really nice, but I appreciate your honest opinion of that, as well as everything else. Toy Story Land looked amazing! I'm glad you had such a great meal at Tiffins! I've heard great reviews of it. Nice little haul too! I like getting key chains on each trip too.

[@nathaliemelle570]

Thank you so much Blair for your wonderful vlogs. Watching them makes me happy ! I'm french and bought you 2 t-shirts from your Etsy shop last year for our first Disney trip in WDW. I really adore them. Just sad you stopped your Disney "collection"... I can't wait going back to WDW next summer with my husband and my son (i know we are crazy but WDW is so amazing !!! We must go back !). And we will also try Tiffins this time. So excited ! It's seems to be a fabulous experience.

[@Thepixiebella]

A 5:35 AM morning in Walt Disney World is the best morning... or even if your not staying at a WDW resort it looked beautiful!

[@annajones3630]

We sat at that exact table in Tiffins the night before! haha. Our food was great! My husband had the lamb shank and I had the chicken & waffles. It wasn't your typical chicken & waffles at all! Unfortunately, it was pouring rain the night before.. so no Rivers of Light. :(

[@epcatcenter]

Thanks for the review of Early Morning Magic! I’ve been considering doing the Disney After Hours at MK...I love the thought of empty parks! Thanks for a great video 😊

[@kcooley2062]

Awesome VLOG! Really good information and we are considering early morning magic events so it helped us for sure. One thing that helps our friends with dizziness riding Hollywood Tower of Terror is non-drowsy Dramamine. They say it works great. Thanks so much for your videos - you do a great job. We are planning a few trips this year and appreciate all you share.

[@Lazydazeadventures]

Toy Story Land is so adorable..we missed it’s opening when we went last year. I can’t wait to go now 😁 I love how informative you are in your videos because it’s so helpful 💜

[@melodyraper5921]

I’m kickinggg my self for not going up and saying “hello” to you at Tiffins. We were there at the same time! ( we were seated behind the Tiki pole thingies lol ) Now I probably sound so creepy. My husband and I loved the quiet and warm atmosphere as well ! I thought it might have been rude to interrupt your nice dinner. Everything we ordered was absolutely DELICIOUS! This was my first time in Disney World and all your videos helped me prepare and get excited for my first trip! So neat we were there the very same week! Thank you for sharing all your vlogs and experiences with us! I can’t wait to see the rest of your vlogs from your week!

[@BlairLamb]

Aww, darn. It was such a yummy meal, wasn't it! We really enjoyed ourselves--so glad you did too! :)

[@nannahopebabyx3]

I love love love Disney so much! I love watching Disney vlogs :) I found your channel, and love you content ! please keep it up! me and my husband will be going very soon and can’t wait ! this makes me so happy ! Thank you for vlogging ❤️😍😊

[@laurie8087]

We love Tiffins so much too! The food is so high quality. You made great purchases, I wish I had gotten a spirit jersey when we were there, I was really partial to the rose gold one. Loving your vlogs so so much!! 🥰

[@pamdleve]

Disney key chains make me happy too!

[@mollymiccee]

I decided late last night that I was going to drive to Disneyland for the afternoon (I’m a pass holder) and this is the perfect way to start this Disney day! Scared to drive by myself in this rainstorm, but hopefully once I get there I can stay dry!

[@delacruzjeffrey]

This video reminded me of when uncle Jesse said “Ah lord have mercy”. Thanks Blair you have that show stuck in my head every time I watch now 😂

[@regan1288]

We have decided that our next Disney World adventure will be January 2020, and we plan to make it a bit of a dream trip as well, so watching your vlogs so far has me so super excited to plan! Can't wait to watch the rest of the trip!

[@samanthastrickland2460]

Love the purple spirt jersey!!!

[@kathibold1970]

I saw this video pop up and I had to take an early lunch to start watching!!! Lol Obsessed!! Keep them coming! Looks like a great trip so far. Thanks for sharing Blair!!

[@annapapadopoulos4569]

Loving your videos. Watched all your previous Disney ones , and learning so much more about Disney!

[@lindseybenefield740]

Loved the background music in the beginning

[@lisacastillo7220]

Oh my goodness, I have ordered a Bagallini purse/bag, A Rowe & Co pullover, Erin Condron luggage tags. I went to the Pretty Little Monograms site and now I'm in love with that stuff also. Yikes I'm in trouble LOL

[@BlairLamb]

Hahaha! :) Thanks for following along, Lisa!

[@MagicalMeg]

I just did early morning magic on Monday, it was so fun! I loved getting to ride Slinky Dog with no wait!! A very cool experience! 😃

[@kellya.8632]

My husband and I are doing the early morning magic in May. So great to hear your thoughts. I feel like you get so much done by noon, and still have the rest of the day!!

[@BlairLamb]

So true! We really did get through HS quickly!

[@nevergrowup5041]

Thank you for all the helpful content in this video. We’re going in May & will probably be using a car service. You mentioned Lyft & having to register. Anyways I was hoping to hear more Disney Hacks” in your upcoming videos. Thanks for providing very useful information!!!!

[@emilywilson4752]

Loved this vlog! My boyfriend and I actually did then Early Morning Magic too! That next Monday and we agree with you! It wasn’t for the food more than the experience of being in toy story land with basically no one there! And I’m so happy you got the purple spirit jersey! That’s the one I picked up on our trip too! ❤️

[@melaneemoore4824]

We're doing EMM at Fantasyland, our first time to WDW in May. Looking forward to it! My day scheduled for HS I think I'm getting FP in the afternoon for Slinky so I'm not with the "throngs" of people in the am and go ride TT!

[@heyitsmaisey6396]

Wishing we would have known about this before going! Toy story land was crazy busy when I was there.

[@magicmanaged6517]

We did the very first EMM back in Sept and we were able to go straight back to Toy Story Land. BUT I just looked back at my plan and it actually started at 7:30am for us, so we weren't let in until a few min before 7:30am. :)

[@BlairLamb]

Interesting! It seems like perhaps they're still working out the kinks as far as communication is concerned--the cast members seemed slightly confused while we were there, and several other guests looked a little confused too. Oh well, it happens!

[@kimberlylavoie4940]

Cute keychain and very nice reviews of EMM and Tiffins.

[@CheersEars]

Great video toy story land is so cool and tiffins is one of our faves,oh.and nomad next door for pre dinner drinks 🍷🍷

[@BlairLamb]

We need to check out Nomad next time. I've heard great things!

[@CheersEars]

@@BlairLamb we love it. Its perfect if rhe park is getting a little hectic. It a little oasis of calm...with awesome food

[@suareza1]

So happy that you had better weather on day two!! Your vlogs are getting me so excited for our own trip! I love that spirit shirt, so cute! Thanks for sharing!

[@maeghanlovejoy]

I also wish I had seen that PLM has rain jackets because it looks like rain for our trip too and I would have totally splurged on a Disney one!

[@brittanyaustin894]

I’m not terribly surprised about the food, I feel like in general HS has the most underwhelming food options. Looks like a fun day overall!!

[@BlairLamb]

I do agree with you about HS and food. I hadn't really thought about that.

[@river8151]

So glad you got to ride the new toy story rides! I was there in November last year and it was so crowded, so I didn’t get to ride it but glad we got to go anyway! Keep up the fun vids Blair!

[@melanieshipley3133]

Thanks for sharing! We were there the exact same week as you but had a very different kind of trip with our 3 little kids! It is fun seeing your trip! We didn't get to stay for Rivers of Light so I liked seeing it. I'll be watching your whole week :)

[@laceyherring4493]

Thanks for the review on early morning event! Would love to see a GRWM video-- Disney version!!!

[@marinaelaine5817]

i’m going to disney in april with my school and may with my family! these videos help make me even more excited!!!!

[@rachellena6068]

Thank you Blair I so needed this vlog today. My little boy has woken up all out of sorts and is just having a day but watching your lovely calm video has kept me calm. Also rivers of light is one of my fav shows!

[@lindarichards9913]

What a fabulous day! I ordered the purple potion spirit jersey! It's on back order and I'm so hoping it arrives before our trip in 66 days!!

[@marcedestownsend1646]

Love Love Love your Disney Vlogs!!!! I can’t wait until my first trip.🤗

[@gracekauffman4990]

Disney vlogs make me so happy!! Getting me more excited for our trip!!

[@stephanieann9890]

Grace Kauffman when do you go? I go April 27

[@gracekauffman4990]

Stephanie Ann we go first week in May.

[@amyabrams2871]

Great video! Best review best tips for EMM at TSL I have heard!!! We are doing it in March! I think that I will use Lyft now that I hear you had good results with it so early in the morning!!!! Since your video the breakfast has been moved to Backlot Express. That may help with breakfast crowds after 9. Again, brat blog about EMM and I have watched a few!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@LemonPointSenior]

i absolutely LOVE your commentary... i'm just reading it as future blair acting as past blair's hype woman, especially "This falafel *was* really good." made me LOL

[@pinkygirlno]

You have to try Sanaa! It’s not in the animal kingdom park, but it’s it the animal kingdom resort, kidani village I believe! Their bread service is beyond brilliant!

[@BlairLamb]

I really want to try Sanaa!!! I've heard such good things.

[@MsToady]

I love Tiffins! The food is excellent and the ambiance is awesome! Enjoying your vlog series!

[@JL-1123]

Thanks for the review Blair - my family will be there for HS EMM in early April, so I've been researching... Our tickets say 7:30-9:00, with ABC open until 10:00 - last year we did this event at MK, and the hours were the same. I'm hoping they let us in right at 7:00 like they did for you so I can get some breakfast ahead of time, and at 9:00 rope drop ToT and RR (the kiddos are too young/small so I always need to make time for them by myself) without feeling like I'm missing out on part of the ticket!

[@meganjadedisney]

Your videos are amazing and you make me so exicted to Vlog my disney trips too 😍😍 I'm also a disney fanatic and constantly post new videos on all the magic of Disney! Got a trip next month that I cant wait to film! keep it up, cant wait to see the next one xxxxx

[@sweet89brunette]

After a long day this is exactly what I needed! I can’t wait for our trip in May🥳

[@TheHagi1969]

Love your Disney vlogs Blair, they’re making me so excited for our trip next week!

[@JanethJ]

I absolutely love your Disney vlogs !!! They make me feel as If I was there too lol! And I was wondering how the toy story land looked and looks so awesome . I usually travel every year for our sons bday but last year we went right before it even opened. Can’t wait to go back .

[@karincope3019]

Thank you again for a great video, the day looked like a lot of fun .

[@amandastone348]

You are just the sweetest! ❤️ Thank you for the great videos. We are going for the first time ever sept 2019. (Family of 4) Your videos are delightful and informative.

[@violetmusic4145]

My family and I would LOVE tiffins! We’re very adventurous

[@charlotte8997]

Your vlogs are so informative. Great tips for our trip in September. Thank you Blair! X

[@carlettemsstanley600]

Great video! Heading there in September and am looking forward to Tiffins. Thank You for the review!

[@sharri115]

I absolutely love your Disney vlogs! I was especially excited to hear what you thought about Tiffins. We are going to Disney in August and plan on going. I may make our reservation for lunch since we have 2 small boys (read:LOUD!). Also, I did see that the lyft Minnie’s have 2 car seats in the back if needed. Just Incase anyone reading the comments was interested to know. I can’t wait for your next vlog! Thanks for taking us along on your trip.

[@agon1963]

Rockin Roller Coaster is still my favorite ride.

[@BlairLamb]

Such a great ride! That blast-off is crazy every time!

[@brendajos]

I had a magical moment at Hollywood Studios in October. I got there at rope drop and headed to Rockin' Roller Coaster and Tower of Terror rather than to Toy Story Land. I had a fast pass for Toy Story Mania for a little later but couldn't get one for Slinky Dog. The line for SDD was crazy by the time I got there and it was something like 85 degrees with no shade, as there isn't much in TSL. So I thought I would go to my lunch at 50s Prime Time Cafe (which is so much fun!) but I was a little early. So I was sitting outside under a tree watching the world go by, looking at my pictures, etc when I gentleman named Christopher walked up and started chatting with me about my day. I mentioned that I was waiting to go back to TSL after lunch to see if the line for SDD got better. I don't have patience for lines and my Nebraska blood does not like the heat at all so if it was still at around 90 minutes I was probably going to skip it. He said "let me make the decision easy for you" and pulled out a fast pass for me to use. I am SOOO Glad he did because the ride, while being family friendly, was so much fun. I didn't expect it, we were just chatting about my trip and he really did make the day magical for me. It actually made it in my shutterfly book that I made so I don't forget it when I am old! ;-) I had thought about doing EMM but my Hollywood Studios day was the day after MNSSHP and there was just no way I could get up that early to make that too. Wish I could have rearranged for it. That would have been fantastic! :)

[@BlairLamb]

How cool!!

[@debmoye1985]

Thank you for vlogging your dream trip!

[@luciousbby]

Obsessed with these!

[@rchiariello]

Is there any particular reason you visit Disney in January? The weather always seems... Not great. I went in mid October and it didn't rain once the entire week! Not even a sprinkling! There were low crowds as well. I would highly suggest visiting in October.

[@BlairLamb]

There are lots of reasons why January suits us. Mild weather, low crowds, a good time for us to take off, etc. This is the first year we've dealt with bad weather--in the previous two years we haven't dealt with rain.

[@faithcoffeeandpixiedust689]

Loving these vlogs! I think y’all would love After hours at Magic Kingdom! We liked EMM, but the food was not good at all. 😂💁🏻‍♀️ Also I’m so jealous I didn’t see that keychain there, it’s beautiful!

[@BlairLamb]

YES, we are kicking ourselves for not booking After Hours in MK. Our friends Amy and Erik did it and absolutely raved about the amazing experience. Next time for sure!!! Sounds like such a fun event!

[@WickedlyMe328]

I did extra hours at HS at night and it was even better than the morning. All attractions were open. Walked on everything

[@jen-jenm229]

I sooooo look forward to your videos!!! Thanks for sharing 😍 We are planning a trip in May and I am soooo ready to go NOW, LOL

[@guinkennedy1118]

I'm binging your Disney vlogs. Oh and I have the same keychain you bought that I got when I went in August!

[@lisagee-gray7681]

We have tickets for this event in May. Thank you for the review.

[@LoweryTravelBlog]

Thank you for the honest review of the early morning magic!

[@Lucretiaseesall]

Thank you for this video! still on the fence about Toy Story land and doing an "early morning magic" but it does look cool! It will go on my list of definite maybe to do. Planning on going to DW November 2020. Very excited about Animal Kingdom, thank you for the review on Tiffins! This is in my food to do list as well all the food places in AK and Pandora!!!

[@brittanynewbold1378]

Hi Blair! Thanks again for sharing your trip with all of us. I'm wondering, will you end up sharing with us your reasons behind your decision to not use the dining plan this time around? I know that you guys typically do (or I thought I remembered that) and I'm just wondering what you've discovered. I'm not very well versed in the best Disney options so I'd love your input!

[@jessicaelliott1335]

I love watching your disney vlogs! My husband and I are staying at the contemporary resort in september and you are pumping me up

[@karenschneyer3812]

I love your videos! I look forward to each and every one! Your reviews are helpful, and your attraction videos make me want to go to WDW today!

[@littleashley6394]

Hi Blair I have a question have you been to it's hard or is tough being a bug that's under the tree of life I suggest you going there it's awesome one of my favorite ones besides of course flight of passage

[@kimithy]

Love it! but i kinda wish i hadnt found you yet... i hate waiting LOL your trip last year was great! i could binge watch them! Thank you! loved that purple shirt btw.

[@LK-uo5kx]

I was finally able to book the early morning magic @ Toy Story Land for the date that I wanted @ 7:30 am. (Check in is @ 7 am.) It was available a week ago but I delayed booking it and the date I wanted disappeared. But after a week of checking the website, the date that I wanted became available again and I booked it just now. Yeah! Thanks for the great review! I want to ride Slinky Dog several times so that I don’t have to worry about trying to get a FastPass for it.

[@abbiejoliec3133]

You were out and about so early I wish you could have seen the Toy Story area in the dark!

[@allyboyd9938]

Not sure why there are thumbs down, but so appreciate all your insight and taking us along on your vacation! Love all your videos ❤️

[@isabelrivera6891]

I love the Disney vlogs!

[@penelopecampbell3372]

love the video Blair can not wait to go to Disney world someday.

[@maeghanlovejoy]

Yay! I've been looking forward to this vlog. We''ll be at the EMM on Wednesday. Eeeck! We've seen videos where it is packed, but people still get to ride SDD at least 3 times. I mean, how often can you say you can do that with any of WDWs headliner rides. Since this is a new land and our first visit to HS we figure the cost is justified. My kids will definitely want to ride SDD more than once or twice so they will be thrilled. I can't say I would shell out the cash for EMM at Fantasyland but that's probably because we've been there before it's not an entirely new thing. We'll do the same as you and head back to our resort around noon and then head back to HS in the evening for some evening Jedi training and Fantasmic (also splurged for the VIP seating. Read: Mom who doesn't like long lines with kids) It's our first day in Disney and it will be early and long, like yours, so I figure take that long break in between and splurge to make it fun. Thanks for the times you provided. That helps out a lot since I was trying to figure out when to call Lyft etc.!

[@dooulikemfontoubetter3785]

From the way you describe everything wdw seems like a 5 star park and hotel. And im definetly believing it. (I may or may not go to wdw. Im so excited, if i dont go though im probably going to be in a depressed state for a while 😂)

[@3890Leah]

How do you get Early Magic? And what is the cost?
