[@jennifertoledo7797]

“We don’t have any kids” Little did you know that baby girl was totally on this trip! So sweet 💕

[@BlairLamb]

Oh my goodness I know it!! Thanks for watching!

[@kristinakeith7160]

I was at Magic Kingdom that day and it was probably the highlight of the trip! We were only in the park for 4 hours but we rode 11 rides including walking on Mine Train! We just put on ponchos and took advantage of the light crowds. A hot shower never felt so good after a day of being in the rain!

[@daniellesflynn]

We were at MK that day too! Rode so many rides! We were there 8am-3pm ...and soaked to the bone!

[@tiffprendergast]

Kristina Keith I told my mom my shower 🚿 was splash mountain ⛰

[@brogantatexo]

Day MADE! So excited for this new vlog series. ❤️👏

[@BlairLamb]

Thank you Brogan!!! Your vlogs carried me until our trip!! #disneyvloggershelpingdisneyvloggers :)

[@tiffprendergast]

Brogan Tate I love ❤️ grand Floridian

[@CharlotteJessicaX]

Brogan, you are the reason I'm watching these videos now! Great recommendation :)

[@TrainerPicasso]

I love your Disney blogs u do it best on KZbin

[@katiesherman309]

Love your videos and love Disney!!! My mom and I love to go resort "hopping" when it is rainy! This past May when it was raining, we went to the Grand Floridian and Polynesian and ate lunch, shopped, and listened to the relaxing piano music at the Grand

[@moorefam078]

I went to Disneyland for my 17th birthday with 2 friends. It poured the entire day but we had so much fun. We ended the night buying dry pajamas to change into for the drive home. I love Disney I’m the rain.

[@karenpino272]

Found myself grinning ear to ear while watching this...you are just having so much fun it is contagious! Been to Disney in bad weather several times, and I agree attitude is everything. Let the sun shine on the inside, and enjoy your Disney time!

[@tlstewart5]

Taking my best friend for her first trip over Spring Break! CANNOT WAIT TO SHOW HER THE MAGIC

[@melissacoronado9196]

Blair, you will not believe me but I also loved watching Full House when I was younger and that’s the reason why I want to stay at the Grand Floridian too! I’m so glad that you guys were able to make this trip! Love your videos 💕

[@amandapare]

I have been to Disney many times but recently I went and it POURED the whole day and it was the most fun I've ever had in all of my trips to disney. We were so soaked that we danced to Happily ever after and splashed in the puddles like we were kids again. Like you said you can either pout or embrace it, and I really recommend embracing it.

[@charleybickham7136]

I only came across your vlogs a couple of weeks ago and have literally binged them! They are so positive and fun to watch :) x

[@BlairLamb]

Thank you so much!!

[@cassandrarodriguez3466]

We were there on 1.27 as well and it rained ALLLL day! We spent that entire day at Magic Kingdom and had an absolute! You just have to embrace it like you said! A rainy day at Disney is better than anywhere else still!

[@chrissybryant1913]

We were there too! Had planned to spend the morning at AK & then have a fancy, relaxing dinner. Went back to our room after a wet, but perfect morning at AK to dry off & warm up. Checked the My Disney Experience app & saw how low the MK crowds were. Immediately canceled dinner allowing us to head to MK. It was one of the best memories I have of Disney. Even my sweet mom, who is 72, bundled up & made it another 5 hours. Closed down MK in the pouring rain watching Magically Ever After. To your point, you decide on your vacation, pout or put on a poncho!

[@starobin53]

My best friend and I were at Hollywood Studios that day. The rain was horrible, but you’re absolutely right about braving the rain and making the most of it. We were able to ride ToT and RnRC three times each and Slinky Dog Dash with no more than a ten minute wait on all three. GREAT day!!! I’m so enjoying your videos!!! 😊

[@andinu79]

Your Disney vlogs are by far my favorite! I think you should go more often. ;) We live about an hour from Disney and actually look forward to rainy summer days in the parks because of the light crowds.

[@journeys_with_jen]

Before having children my husband and I would go to Disney every September and it always rained pretty much all day everyday. We would just put on our big yellow ponchos and go to the parks. It was so worth it for the incredibly short lines. I loved seeing so much with little to no wait times. You can not let the rain deter you in Florida!

[@tiffanykeef8420]

Just now getting a chance to watch your blogs! So glad you had a fantastic trip! Beautiful Hotel Room! I bet you felt like a Princess all week!

[@KatieRN-979]

I’m so happy you are staying at the Grand Floridian so I got to see the room, it’s where I’m looking into booking. 💗

[@epcatcenter]

Omg I used to be OBSESSED with that Full House special! I may or may not have watched it recently 😅

[@BlairLamb]

Awww! I need to watch it again now that we've gone! I'll probably cry haha

[@hannahrooks8493]

I LOVE Disney (land, never been to world) in the rain! If I can, I purposely try to go when it's rainy although it's hard when the weather is so unpredictable. I'm going to Disneyland this May, and I'm particularly excited because I've gone in May twice when it was raining and they've been the best trips. We just buy several dollar store ponchos to cycle through and have a blast in the empty park. My last, rainy trip was May 2018 and we got through nearly the entire park by 3pm and headed out once the sun and crowds came out. I was shocked that we walked right onto rides that usually have 3 hour wait and once we got off, we got right back on. It was seriously amazing! I'm so glad you guys enjoyed the rain! Every time I watch your Disney vlogs, it makes me want to go to WDW!!

[@pchy99]

I arrived for my first solo trip on this same rainy day and did Hollywood Studios. Rode Slinky Dog three times, in the rain, in less than 30 minutes. It was very cold, but still a lot of fun.

[@nancyg7051]

Great job on the VLOG! It really makes such a difference that you take the time to edit and put together a video that is really enjoyable to watch, complete with your added comments typed in and such! Discovered you a few weeks ago as my DIsney-loving hubby and I are going back to Disney in March. Thanks for sharing and I hope Disney sponsors a trip for you soon (they totally should because you do a great job and you 2 are such a sweet couple!). I'm going to go on over to etsy to order a pullover!

[@jeanmacfarland1428]

Great Vlog, can't wait to watch the rest!

[@87pmickey]

Bad weather don’t care,it is the best time to be there ....We splashed around and had fun

[@kerryhutton4097]

Another great Disney vlog and can't wait for day 2!! We roll with the weather and are always prepared for rain. A rainy day in Disney is better than a day at work that's for sure!!!

[@AlliCherry]

I loved this so much, Blair! I totally agree that Disney can sometimes be the most fun in the rain as long as you're prepared for it. Those flowers were so cute, now I'm curious where they're from! :)

[@DisneyPoppinsDisney]

You can order the flowers from the In-room Celebration. So far, I have ordered flowers and products for my sister, for my husband, and for the family I nanny for. I have never been disappointed. You can order jewelry, snacks, seasonal items, champagne glasses...

[@BlairLamb]

I'm curious too! We never did find out. The mystery kind of added to the magic though. We're so grateful and humbled to whoever sent them. :)

[@rpattinson01]

I live about 25 minutes away from Dallas and my family loves Disney too!! Me and my parents are going in October over Halloween!! Can’t wait to watch the rest of these videos!!

[@caitandrews533]

the tucked in remote is the best touch ever xD

[@BlairLamb]

Cracked me up too!

[@monicagutierrez2022]

My family since we are from California only go to Disney world every two years in the summer and it always rains which we aren’t used to because it never really rains in Disneyland here for us. So for me it’s normal to associate Disney world with rain and I love it 😍 Thank you for sharing your trip I love your videos and I’m excited to see the rest of the series! ❤️

[@avgeek3255]

Glad you made the best out of the situation.. even if the weather isn't so bad on a trip, when staying in a nice hotel I can find it hard to pry myself away (even though I'm so excited about exploring!) So glad you spoilt yourselves - you both deserve it!

[@juicyink]

We flew in the same Sunday too, it was brutally cold on top of the downpour rain! My boyfriend and I knew it was going to rain, like typical Florida on and off rain, but wow 😂😂😂 that was a lot. Beyond thankful for waterproof boots to keep the toes warm, bf on the other hand was a super trooper for trucking it through with soggy sneakers. You’re absolutely right! It’s still worth going to the parks, with such little crowds at Epcot, we were able to walk onto most of the rides with no waits. Thank you so much for vlogging during your vacation and sharing the fun with us! Watching your vlogs before the trip made me excited for the Disney magic and seeing your favorites in this video makes me look forward to the next trip! That Rossini looks yum 😍😍😍

[@jomopico]

Oh, and the ocean scent and the Serengeti grasses are our favorites at Soarin'. Breath deeply! :)

[@audreyblegen4417]

Yay! The Disney vlogs have begun again!!

[@hmommysgirl98]

I never clicked so fast. I just moved from Florida to Louisiana and we used to go to Disney ALL the time. Love your Disney vlogs

[@ashleighleith]

Eeeek! I’m on day 0 and watching your vlogs in excited anticipation! We are doing Caribbean beach this year! GF is definitely in our future 😍

[@graceklous6944]

this made me so happy i’ve been missing disney lately love your videos!

[@melissaperusse7204]

This was the hotel we stayed at when we went to Disney last year and we loved it!! The Grand Floridian smell is amazing 😭😍

[@ThatgirlL18]

WHEN YOU SAID FULL HOUSE.... Girl, same! Lol! DJ coming down that staircase, lol! I love your videos!! LOVE LOVE them!!!

[@BlairLamb]

Awww YES to DJ coming down the stairs!!! Thanks so much for watching!

[@ThatgirlL18]

Also, I hadn’t gotten to the part when you were in the Japan pavilion when I commented, but my husband and I got a kick at Riley and the Triforce shield. We are both casual gamers and just loved the mention of Zelda! Can’t wait for day 2!

[@TheWalkingDreamer]

WDW for me is officially 33 days away, I cannot wait. Looks like you guys had a lovely time, looking forward to the rest of the vlogs.

[@BlairLamb]

Oh my goodness how exciting!!! Have the best time!!

[@tiffprendergast]

TheWalkingDreamer have fun

[@nicoleedwards5543]

I've never seen the Japan pavilion so empty. Of course, we only go in the summer. lol I would love to be able to walk through that store and actually get to shop and browse. So fun! Glad you are able to live out your childhood dream of staying at the Grand Floridian.

[@sildom4023]

Omg girl! I remember that exact episode and how uncle Jesse sings to a mad Becky on the piano! I loved it!

[@tracihighsmith3226]

We started our recent Disney World trip the same day and were at Epcot all day. We left around the time you were arriving! Completely agree with your opinion of the weather. We were soaked but it was a great day to be in the parks - short lines everywhere and the rain didn’t hinder our plans other than Test Track being closed all day. Looking forward to following along with the rest of your trip!

[@jimdove]

We were at Epcot that day too and it was a blast. We've never had a rain day and it was awesome, a little chilly but fun. We did the same week as you guys last year also so it will be fun to see what you guys did for that week. Keep up the great videos.

[@thebaileys6250]

We love rainy days at Disney! Everyone clears out of the park and we are able to get so much done. We usually go every year but this year we're not. We're saving to go to Aulani next year! So I'm happy and sad. While we wait I'll live vicariously through other peoples trips LOL We want to stay at The Grand someday.

[@veronicacoates8832]

On our last trip on the last day we were at Magic Kingdom in the pouring rain. We got stuck in Seven Dwarfs right at the house at the end for 10 minutes, no exaggeration. All I could do was laugh and just embrace the rain. So excited for the rest of your vlogs!

[@BlairLamb]

Hahaha what a great story! Sometimes all you can do is laugh!

[@AndrushkitaG]

Blair, I enjoy your videos so much. You are so full of love and light. Thank you for sharing. God bless you and your hubby. 💜

[@haleydarling7002]

I was just telling my mom how excited I was for your new Disney vlogs! Best video to take homework breaks with for sure!

[@gallaghim]

Fun video. It's pleasing to see a new vlog series starting. I enjoyed your vlog series from 2018 and it was informative as someone researching a future trip. For me rain or shine i'd be out in the parks for definite. With the amount of money it takes to visit Disney, there's no way i'd be sitting on my thumbs in my hotel room waiting for the rain to clear. Besides it'd be pretty boring too. I kinda like those travel day scenarios where eventually it catches up with you and you sleep like a log. I already know what I want to do on first day/travel day. I plan to get settled in the hotel, then go to Disney Springs and have a D-Luxe burger. I'm dying to try one of them :D. Though it all depends how i'm feeling at the time of course, after all it's between 20-24hrs worth of flights to get there!

[@BlairLamb]

Thanks so much for watching and for leaving such a thoughtful comment! Safe travels across the world when you come to Disney!! :)

[@aggienurse12]

I am from Dallas too, and just got back today from my first trip to Disney. Your videos are awesome. I’ll definitely keep watching for ideas for my next trip!

[@laurentoner20]

I love rewatching the vlogs from this trip knowing that you were pregnant and had no idea yet! Makes me so happy and excited for you and Riley.

[@BlairLamb]

Me too! :) Thanks so much, Lauren!

[@denysesmith6975]

We had one of our best trips to Disney in the middle of storm! It was during June hurricane season and the parks were empty! We had rain gear and had a blast! No waits, smaller crowds, and so much fun!!

[@leighwitty8715]

Look at you being able to ride the monorail to the park and staying in your dream resort!!!!!! What a fun night in Epcot even in the rain! Great dinner and low crowds are always good!! Via Napoli is great! I may need that strawberry drink next time! I also love Japan! I think you all touched all of the same things that we did back in January! Those backpacks covering their eyes are sooooo cute. I'm 50 but almost bought that for myself! Soooooo excited for these vlogs to start but.......my problem is that I like to watch your videos so that I can see several days at a time and not have to wait for the next installment. Don't think that's going to happen though because I was so excited to see this one up, I had to watch! Can't wait for more!! P.S. Love the new park bag! I may need to check that out!!

[@maggiemoore6684]

Blair I just love love love your videos!! Thank you for sharing your vacation with us! Love you guys😘😘

[@KHollander22]

I share your love for turn-down service! The ultimate luxury 😍

[@rachelmcdanielsmith7847]

I’m prepping for a Disney honeymoon so I’m rewatching your videos so I can plan better....I love watching this knowing that you were pregnant and didn’t even know it. So sweet!

[@mariadelirasalazar6825]

How fun! Even in the rain! We have had some of our best days at the parks when it's raining! We are going in September for the first time WITHOUT kids and cant wait!

[@BlairLamb]

Oooh how fun!!! Have the best best best trip! We always have so much fun!

[@kat_9999]

We had arrived sat January 26. Yes, it rained all day long on the 27th and was cold. We actually went to disney springs. Hope you had a great trip. We did. Too bad I didn't see you, I probably would have said hi. We were there till February 5. So glad it warmed up. Can't wait to see the rest of your trip videos.

[@Terribleatusernames]

As an annual passholder who lives too close to the parks to justify these long trips to Disney for myself, I love that I can experience this awesome week through you! Thanks for another great vlog!

[@LisaEicholtz]

I totally agree with you Blair you have to go with the flow. No matter where you are on vacation the weather isn’t always ideal. Looks like you guys had a great time. I look forward to your other blogs

[@BlairLamb]

Thank you so much!

[@wvmountainmom7612]

It seems like you all had a wonderful day. You and Riley make me laugh so much. Lol. We do the same thing, if it's raining we just get ponchos, bundle up and head to the parks for fun!

[@erintison6630]

Loved the intro! The editing was great. You can see all the hard work you put in!

[@BlairLamb]

Thank you for saying that, Erin. I really appreciate it!

[@mrsofficer396]

We flew in the following Sunday and it was hot, sunny, and PACKED! Never again will I go around superbowl but we still had a great time.

[@kathrynmenu6752]

My 10 year old actually did a happy dance when this posted. 😘

[@mercedes8045]

When it rains in Disney I absolutely love it! We put on our ponchos grab and umbrella and have fun! I mean we paid thousands to be there I refuse to let Mother Nature ruin my day. Plus I love the fact that the lines are 5 to 15 minutes!

[@alexakeeler1399]

When we go to Disney we always carry ponchos so when it does we can go and ride rides with no lines and we always go to the Nemo ride in Epcot if it’s raining really bad! But overall we have an amazing time and it creates a wonderful memory

[@dvance600]

Love that you are putting the weather on screen! I always wonder what the weather is like during certain months.

[@taylortexeira]

Our family always goes to the parks rain or shine! We do multiple parks a day, just non stop!

[@jaybeeonethree]

The best part of this video was hearing your genuine excitement and joy when you opened the door to the room!! Can’t wait to see even more of your ✨dream trip✨!!

[@clairexcassar]

Epcot is my favorite park! Moroccan pavillion was so much fun and we had a really yummy dinner there! Loved exploring, but want to go back and take even more time trying food and watching shows!

[@karenschlumpf4532]

Always enjoy your videos :o) I was at WDW the same week!! That Sunday, I was over in Magic Kingdom which was very empty due to the rain.

[@lisalocke9069]

Absolutely love that room; it’s beautiful and the balcony and view are great! We are the put on the rain ponchos and go for it group. We know it will rain, we can’t control it, so we just go for it. If it’s too much, there are plenty of inside places to go and wait it out.

[@sophiapicano7089]

I’m going to Disney in 3 days and these videos make me so excited !!!

[@brockholman5779]

Love watching your videos and seeing the joy Disney brings you and Riley!! 😀 And I agree, throw on your rain gear and enjoy the parks! As you mentioned, the wait times for attractions will be low and you can always take shelter by popping into shops or sitting down for a meal! 👌

[@Kayla-ps8mw]

Already loving watching this Disney trip! The rain makes it all the more cosy and magical!

[@CEMS0923]

Your eyebrows look so good! Lol, I love all your disney vlogs! I’m from FL originally and my husband and I love Disney World with all our hearts. Disney is truly a second home to the people who love it❤️so happy you guys got to go on this trip!

[@suareza1]

I second the eyebrows... They look awesome!!

[@laurenviolette3643]

Yessss! Eyebrows are on point 🙌🏼

[@BlairLamb]

Thank you guys so much!! So sweet. And thanks for watching!

[@barichild]

I'm so pumped for more Blair Videos and Disney ones too!! Eek! Its also so fun because I just got back from my trip too.

[@scarlettrosales705]

I don’t watch disneyworld vlogs because they make me sadder than I already am but I love yours! I can’t wait till my next trip❤️❤️❤️ hope you had an amazing one

[@nevergrowup5041]

You guys are so sweet, your view is stunning...so excited for you and Riley.

[@MariahsWholeNewWorld]

Ahhhh Blair!!! I had to comment to say I’m super excited to be following y’all along your last trip!! I know y’all had a blast. 😊😊❤️

[@kathymatthews1882]

Love rainy days at WDW!!! Everybody leaves. Had some of the best interactions with cast members in the rain!!

[@Lazydazeadventures]

I loved this so much...you are always so positive and it’s so refreshing 😊💜 I love the Japanese pavilion it’s my favorite too 💕

[@kristip.3858]

We had a super rainy day one time and it was a best day ever in Disney! We actually rode Figment I’m Epcot and then came back to our room at the Beach Club, ate pizza and watched movies ☺️

[@sammoyer7939]

I cannot wait to see the rest of your vacation! Soarin is the best ride ever! 👍🏻

[@MsToady]

Great vlog! I agree, power through the bad weather!

[@tonyac8762]

Wow! We were at Epcot that day too! It was the 2nd to last day on our trip. We poncho'd up and splashed out! We did lots of attractions & films in the different countries. Worked out great for us too ... love your vlogs!

[@Jen.9.29]

I have not one bit of interest in anything Disney related, but I enjoy your videos so I’m watching and supporting anyway. 😁 I do love the room!

[@kristinmcgary8926]

Travelon is amazing I bought a crossbody bag for Europe 10 years ago and use it when we travel and it has not shown any wear. I love that it is cut proof and have the extra lock features and is water resistant! It is my lightest bag and it holds more then you think. Taking mine to disney next week!

[@katiebellejohnson2688]

My husband and I were there in December. When it rained, we bought some ponchos and kept rolling! We like buying the WDW ponchos because they’re x-large and go over our backpacks. They keep our backsides and legs covered, standing and sitting. Also, I always take a hand towel with me to dry off seats and/or sit on.

[@BlairLamb]

The hand towel is so smart!

[@yorkshirelassdiaries4841]

Aw. To think two of your dreams came true on that week without you knowing it!

[@markyeiter3257]

Smiled throughout the whole video, Blair! These types of videos just make my week. Nothing like Disney magic, even when it's happening for other people!!! :-) - Debbie

[@kristymadden15]

Love this!!! Gerbera Daisies are my absolute favorite flower!!

[@BlairLamb]

Mine too! Those and peonies. Love both so much. Thanks for watching, Stacy!

[@kristymadden15]

Blair Lamb love peonies also! Star gazer lilies smell so nice as well!

[@CaffienatedSugar]

Omg! Im obsessed with the bag, so thank you for not making me wait to know your recommendation. So now I can get mine and hold it by the time your recap comes lol

[@hilarylemon]

Yes! When I was in middle school, we did a big road trip from CT to a family reunion in the Outer Banks and we stopped at Busch Gardens on the way. It was pouring rain and we had the whole place to ourselves. Just road ourselves silly on limitless roller coasters. It was such a memorable time for our family. Glad you made lemonade out of lemons. :)

[@jenb25]

Great first vlog! The GF looks awesome. Via Napoli looked really great, how cool is it that you had the same waiter!!

[@BlairLamb]

Thanks so much for watching Jennifer!!

[@laurensawyer330]

Blair, I just love watching your Disney vlogs! Epcot is my favorite park, with World Showcase being my favorite attraction there! My husband & I experienced a rainy day at Magic Kingdom once, so we put our ponchos on & had just as much fun. I remember getting off Pirates & going into the gift shop. My husband grabbed a couple of pirate swords & pretended to be a poncho pirate LOL! It's all what you make of it. So glad to see you & Riley had such a great first day!

[@fabiolafloresxo]

Omg yes Napoli!!!! Literally the most AMAZING pizza I’ve EVER had in my life!

[@dooulikemfontoubetter3785]

Its hard to find good disney vlogs where they go everywhere. So i clicked on this thinking "this is going to be bad getting ready to click off" but once it started (by that i mean like 3 minutes later) i got intrigued and stayed, and boy am i happy i did, this seems intresting and your so so pretty.

[@BlinkBoxx44]

Great vlog, and one of the best walkthroughs of Mitsukoshi!

[@karissanorthern3219]

IM SO EXCITED FOR THESE NEW VLOGS! I watched your vlogs last year before I took my trip to Disney & it made the anticipation for my trip so much more exciting!

[@lizflinn]

I was so excited to see this posted today!! Can't wait to follow along with this vlog series!

[@kristip.3858]

So great!! I hope you all had a great trip 😊. We are staying at my dream location soon!! Polynesian!! I have wanted to stay there since I was a little girl ☺️🥰
