Our Disney's Contemporary Staycation Day 2! | NEW Snacks, Magical Magic Kingdom Day & More Fun!

[@jazminlihou6536]

The cast member saying 'Really Tim' when his magic band wasn't working killed me. It's nice to see that cast members know who they are and feel comfortable joking around with them!

[@KathyHollister]

I applaud you as parents for not pressuring Jackson to do things he isn't comfortable with.

[@debrasedgwick4697]

I know adults who were forced to do something when they were a child, and they still hate it. Tim and Jen are awesome for letting Jackson chose when he is ready.

[@Alittlesleepywitch]

When i was a kid my dad would just carry me on rides and it scared me 😅 i was finally 17 years old when i rode my first rollercoaster that had loops in it 🤣

[@gnux]

I was going to be shocked if Jackson didn't get scared on Haunted Mansion. I feel like it's a rite of passage to fear and then get over your fear of Haunted Mansion as a child 👍

[@sydneyjennings4316]

i still haven’t gotten over mine and i’m 18😂i went in june and may or may not have still cried

[@jenaywinn3207]

Agreed. I was like four and got so sacred in the queue the cast members escorted us out. I was 30 when I got on it again lol

[@petro0889]

I rode it finally at 5 or 6 and found it so cool. I had watched old reels and knew it was “pretend”, hooked on the ballroom scene since. Sill a favorite ride! That was 1974 or 1975. Like our third family rode trip down to Florida. Now live here, my family has been cast, and we are AP’s. A Disney life for me!

[@organicmangoes]

This is me except with space mountain and I’m still terrified of it at age 27 😭 I’ll still ride it though cuz it’s fun, I’ll just be crying the whole time lol

[@nicolemcclarin3712]

I took my 4 year old and she loved it up until we got to the part with the dancing ghosts. And then the worst thing ever could happen, the ride got stuck for like 20 minutes so my girl was balling her eyes out the whole time 🤣

[@sarahruth3579]

I love how the guy at the gate says “really Tim” 😂🙌 celebrity status 🙌😎

[@jankehoe6078]

it tells them who you are with bands! One told me happy birthday as I walked in!

[@abbeyroot6531]

I met him recently at Universal. He is so awesome

[@morgandonnally2333]

When my youngest was 2 1/2, we gave him a mini Coleman Lantern keychain for the Haunted Mansion and told him if the ride got too dark, he could turn it on. It worked great and he carried it on a belt loop until he was six for any ride he was unsure on. We had friends use the tip through the years and its always worked well!

[@leawinter1992]

That's a clever idea! I love it!

[@TheMustangtaz]

Me and my partner got married and are currently honeymooning in Disney world. My wife is the biggest fan of the tracker family and I mean the BIGGEST fan. Tim's channel is literally all she watches. We have been in the same park as them 4 times and have genuinely been metres away from them at some points without even realising, only finding out when we watch their video. Tim if you're reading this, I hope that before we leave Orlando, me and my wife manage to meet you, just to say thank you for all the videos and everything you have helped us go through. It would mean the absolute world to both of us.

[@83lulube]

It's almost all I watch on KZbin as well, I love them!

[@jamiekernc9925]

Congratulations!!

[@bridgetclement2968]

My hubby and I got engaged and Honeymooned in DISNEY. it was Magical til my hubby had issues with Gallstones.

[@Nana_9150]

The way you didn’t pressure Jackson is so precious/ I see so many kids crying in line for haunted mansion. It’s an eerie ride.

[@erikagholston6610]

Jackson waving at the statues is adorable.

[@jacquelinezoccolillo9808]

🥰 I can’t believe how he is maturing 🥰 Jackson is living every child (&adults) dream! The opportunities that you are giving him now will last forever and will help build his knowledge, humanity and interpersonal relationships. It’s amazing

[@kristindewitt9059]

Several years ago we took our 13 month old on Haunted Mansion. He was wide eyed looking around then suddenly started yelling Day! Day! He wanted out of the dark and was ready to get back into the sunshine. 😁❤️

[@JenandJoeontheGo]

Lol! Our son works at MK and was right behind the trolley in your vlog! That made us so happy to see him. His name is Tim too. Jen and a Joe xo

[@ChinaDollTravels]

1:50 love how every time Jackson sees a monorail 🚝 he says buh bye 👋 lol 😝

[@tonip.3251]

It was so cute when Jen asked Jackson how he was doing on the autopia cars, and he had the worlds hugest smile on his face! I think he liked it😄

[@lucillegass4715]

Watching Jackson on the merry go round, eating ice cream, truly the highlight of my day! Thankyou!!!

[@sherrystrawn7628]

The three things I've been waiting for.. Jackson's haircut .. Jackson watching fireworks.. and Jackson riding HM. Two out of three ain't bad. 😊

[@christinesouders9599]

When our daughter was Jackson age, we took her night swimming at the resort pools. She had a blast and slept through the night. Bonus…she didn’t get sun burned.

[@tallerguy142]

So here’s my hot take on when and why the magic band lights up during the fireworks. They don’t want it lighting up through the whole show because 1) battery life and 2) you’re supposed to be looking at the show and not your wrist. So they select particular moments where the band lighting up and vibrating will accentuate what’s currently happening in the show. I noticed it kept lighting up when the singers were saying “You are the magic” so the band is emphasising that the magic lives in you. It would be interesting to note what else is being sung at the other points where the band lights up. I suspect it will be whenever there are key messages about you being able to make your own wishes come true or you being the hero of your own story etc

[@PrincessMeggala0913]

Jackson’s happy face driving the car just gave me happy feelings. He’s such a sweet boy!

[@RACKS2024]

Literally the highlight of every day for me! Nothing beats anxiety and stress like coming home to watch yall after work. Its crazy how much someone else’s happiness can influence others. Definitely makes my day every time i see you guys living life to the fullest

[@cindyreyes8243]

Jackson is such a sweet little boy. I love how he was just sitting and humming playing with his new blocks. It brought back nice memories when my son was his age!

[@thedisneydilettante]

Love that you guys listened to Jackson and skipped the Haunted Mansion. So many people force their kids to go on stuff before they are ready and the kids are so scared and upset.

[@Adri-su6zo]

Jackson got to ride Walt Disney’s daughter Lillian Disney’s favorite horse!! It’s named Dentzel Jumper and you’ll know which one it is by it’s gold tooth !

[@BrewCityGillz]

Thanks for always trying to show Mr. Toad and Owl on the Pooh ride. - Toad fans 🐸

[@bridgetclement8167]

My Dad LOVED Mr Toad's wild ride!!! I think my Son will like Winnie the Pooh ride.

[@moredisney4me82]

Jackson looked so happy and was having a lot of fun on the Speedway. He was driving just how kids like to by bumping side to side.

[@chelseawells182]

If he liked the interactive magic band, you should do the Harry Potter interactive wands at Universal!

[@TabathaWillet]

Those rooms by the “random” couches on the lake is where my husband and I were for our honeymoon! It was AWESOME! Best view of the water pageant and so quiet!

[@LordDilandau]

Haunted Mansion was both my kids’ first ride at Disney when they were babies. My now 4 year old is OBSESSED with Haunted Mansion now (reads the books, wants me to sing Grim Grinning Ghosts at bedtime, decorations on his wall, etc), but this past trip he got scared of the “stretchy room” because of the thunder sound. He was fine with it for the first three years of his life, but now it’s just scary to him, so we’ll just keep skipping it until he’s happy to go through it again!

[@lindseygauntner2051]

We stayed in the garden wing rooms that overlook the water. We laid in bed with the slider opened and watched/listened to the electric water pageant! It is one of my favorite Disney memories!

[@corinnecurtis7468]

The first time I was ever in Disney World I was freaked out by the elevators into the aquarium that is now The Seas with Nemo and Friends in EPCOT. I refused to go in & a cast member spoke to my Dad so he could tell my Mum (who'd stayed behind with me) that we could go in through a side entrance. I'm so glad the cast members got me in because I still remember it so vividly (& fondly) over 20 years later. It's my favorite part of EPCOT to this day, even though my Granny was absolutely horrified they were feeding the manatees romaine lettuce (that fact was met with a "it's $5 a head" cry of Scottish terror that can still be heard to this day)

[@corinnecurtis7468]

anywho, the point of all that was, that the lengths cast members go to in order to make Disney a great experience for kids is unparalleled. also my dad's name is quentin 10/10 agree it's an excellent name for a carousel horse

[@bessannkushner]

Jackson scores more points on Buzz Lightyear then me and he wasn’t even trying! 😆

[@PrincessMeggala0913]

Haha. That happened with my brother and dad. Brother was super young and just turned the spinning joystick the whole time and my dad just started shooting. lol. THEY GOT 999999!!!!!!!!

[@courtneyceasar7878]

A 40+ min. video of family fun day the park- loved it! Jackson will ride whatever he wants when he is ready! I never considered staying at the Contemporary until now.

[@momokoblue8032]

That round bullseye pool was the original pool at The Contemporary. It was the only one for a long time. It can be seen in the WDW grand opening TV special with Glen Campbell and Julie Andrews in 1971 and the New Mouseketeers at Walt Disney World tv special from 1977. The hotel didn't need a larger pool because at the time you could actually swim in the Seven Seas Lagoon.

[@hobbitlady7568]

So explain this to me, where there no alligators then? I truly don’t get it.

[@TheGoofy1932]

No, they've always had alligators in the lakes. Times were different in the 70's. 😆 For example, my 1st ride on Space Mountain was when I was less than a year old and definitely Not the 44 inches in height they require Now. 😬

[@roneemalama8812]

I love the history lesson. Thank you

[@donnahouck5754]

I clearly remember swimming in the lake with no thoughts of alligators in the 70’s

[@JustAlanDoingAlanThings]

25:30 I've noticed Jackson does that shoulder thing a lot. Especially when watching a screen. It seems like maybe an ear issue or a tic of some kind.

[@amaliaoriley32]

I think Jackson's energy increases when he's at the parks like he gets more focal like he says bye to the monorail & he waves the people on the omnibus. The cutest thing Jackson said was, "oh, Orange."

[@galileo4k230]

I’ve been watching your videos for years, but recently it’s been quite the treat. To see your family enjoy the wonderful world of Disney is nostalgic for me. Thanks as always TimTracker!

[@jankehoe6078]

I think I will watch the fireworks instead of my wrist!

[@mistamemewide]

Don’t worry Jackson. I actually never really went on to the Haunted Mansion till I was 15, so he’s not alone

[@PrincessMeggala0913]

Ha. Sameeeeeeee. Lol

[@melanieknight4503]

aww looks like you had an amazing time and i love how your so good at letting Jackson take the rides at his own pace, also loved the video of him getting his magical haircut xxx

[@nickellfrancis1128]

Thank you tim and Jennifer I love the fireworks show 🙄🌸🌸🌸

[@ariannageorge4765]

My family lived out of state, but we visited WDW 2x a year since before I was born. So many amazing memories! But I distinctly remember riding Hunted Mansion for the first time-the stretching room terrified me!!! And I was 4-5 years old, not two like Jackson. So I understand why he backed out. I lone watching y’all’s videos and reliving my families memories through you since I can’t be at WDW everyday. Thank you!

[@HeidiSKulesh]

I used to have a brick on the walkway between the Contemporary and MK. Also was "part owner" in quite a few on walkway towards the marina, going away from the MK, if you take a right. ROTFL at CM at MK "Really Tim?". Priceless. Love the look of joy and wonder on Jackson's face riding the carousel He was looking up at the 'turning part/crank" at the top of the horse pole - that's exactly what I used to do riding the carousel at my local amusement park. Fascinated me. Tim - Your peanut butter pie looked REALLY good, and I LOVED seeing Jackson sharing his frozen lemonade with Jenn. Socially distanced hugs to the 3 of you from New Jersey. Stay strong, stay positive, stay healthy!

[@aaronscottfx]

4:46 on the right, me and my family spotting and disturbing you guys! thank you so much for taking the time to talk to us and take a picture! :)

[@cailleydeblanc1396]

I really enjoy the videos y'all do as a family. My son is a month older than Jackson and it's nice to see him leading the day and gives us good ideas when we visit.

[@pixiedustgirl13]

Precious! Jackson saying Bye bye! to the monorail.

[@lovestodive1879]

What a great day. Jackson is getting where he is enjoying the rides more and more.

[@christina369]

Loving Tim’s muppet shirts lately! I’ve been on a muppets kick recently, so it’s nice to see someone else appreciates them!

[@kennapinkponyclub]

I don't know you guys personally/its not my business but i love how gentle yall are with jackson 🥺 explaining things to him and listening to his emotions 💓

[@Jontan__]

I remember when you guys used to post videos before Jackson and during Jackson’s pregnancy and wow you guys have truly turned into amazing parents. God bless the three of you.

[@KittyCatS1021]

I used to do the same route when I was a kid! I tried multiple times to ride Haunted Mansion, and any time I would chicken out I would go over to Winnie The Pooh. Who knows, maybe some day Haunted Mansion will become his favorite like it did mine! Adorable 🖤

[@funnymanatee]

You guys should stay for a week in the contemporary tower and do everything possible at the resort.

[@nicoleel2578]

I was terrified of haunted mansion as a kid! It’s now one of my favorites!

[@jencasella8994]

Jackson is literally the cutest kid. He is just so darn cute…I love the videos with Jackson

[@dianeritchey2775]

Love these videos of the whole family in the parks. Jackson is the cutest!!😃💕

[@dobie520]

I love that y’all don’t force Jackson onto rides. We did that with my son at Disney. He grew into the big rides as he was ready. I was watching a different KZbinr yesterday and this young child was going crazy on FoP.

[@dailydoseofdestiny6702]

Jackson was born like last week I feel like, how is he so grown up already lol

[@jayvenner1209]

The Alien Freeze sounds amazing, I definitely want this!!!

[@ilsehunt6338]

Love the contempo cafe and steakhouse 71 is amazing for breakfast ! Jackson will eventually go on haunted mansion !

[@barbarahamilton5094]

Stretching room terrified me as a 7 year old (way back when) Another great video and Jackson gets cuter ever day!

[@bridgetclement8167]

Same. I was Terrified of Haunted mansion as a Kid!! Especially at Jackson's age. I was 7 when Tower of terror Opened. I went on it with my Mom and the Picture from it is Priceless!!!

[@GrumpyCanCan]

At least you didn't force Jackson to ride HM. I was waiting on my niece to ride tower of terror and this couple had gotten off the ride with a screaming crying kid and the dad kept apologizing to him that he didn't know the ride dropped like that. The mom seemed irritated with the dad and was telling him "I told you he wasn't ready for it." The dad just walked away. I told the mom yeah, I'm in my 40s and don't ride it...it took 1 time for me to ride it and never again. I think the dad scarred that kid for life. Lolol

[@marcigriffith8195]

I always like Tim’s dessert reviews! We took our son on HM when he was 4 and we gave a pen light to click on if he got scared. Nice video 😎

[@tessadarnall5675]

I took my daughter to disney for the first time last year she was 1. We went on haunted mansion and poc and she was wide eyed the whole time she didnt seem scared though, but on both rides i heard other kids talking that seemed a bit scared. Im glad yall arent pressuring jackson into doing anything he doesnt want too. My daughter is 2 now and we plan to go back when she is 3 hopefully she still is okay with those rides but if shes not i dont mind leaving them for another time. Jackson is growing up so fast its amazing to see him grow hes only a few months older than my daughter and he is so darn smart you guys are doing a wonderful job

[@coburnbatman]

Its always fun to go to Disney! I wanna do everything when I go, but when the heat hits me, my body says, "not so fast buddy" lol. Stay hydrated and seek shade and A/C as much as possible! And as far as the new Magic Bands go....I think they'll have some future updates so the lights stay on more during shows at night

[@julieriopel6412]

Tim! I saw someone on Tick Tock with the Enchantment special edition magic band + at the fireworks and it was incredible. My understanding is that the regular ones does not act the same! 😉

[@Hayleyrules]

Love the look of the Alien Freeze! Thank you for a great video Tim

[@lisaweiss681]

I've watched a lot of reviews of the magic band + & most people aren't liking them. I personally don't think their worth the extra money at this time, but maybe they'll keep developing them and a visitor will be able to more interaction with them as time goes on, then it might be worth the buy.

[@leawinter1992]

I was thinking the same thing.

[@disneynutd1609]

Another great long video..thanks Tim and Jen …💐

[@Slygathor]

The contemporary during the day is a hidden gem for taking a quick nap. Also, Jackson did exactly what I did the first time I could remember trying to ride Haunted Mansion. He’ll get over it!

[@alexisbk9576]

Went on Haunted Mansion every weekend when I was a kid since my family went on. I hated it. At 18 and up I haven’t going on since, so it’s been 20 years and I’m fine never going on again. Winnie the Pooh is still more my speed lol

[@nurseydebdeb8539]

Contemporary is my favorite and I love the new remodeled they have done. Yes I was going to be blown away if jacks9n was going to ride haunted mansion but good job when he said no you guys did not force him and respected his choice. Jenn I think you and I have the same nail polish looks great. Tim actually that circle pool out on the water use to be used alot with younger kids and their folks, then the swim beach was right beside it. The sand was super white back then too. The main pool was a good size rectangle pool that went to 6 or 8 ft, and it was in the same place as the main pool was. I remember so many more boats taxiing people all over you could catch a boat ride to the MK from the end of that long dock. I am sad that discovery island is no longer I always loved that and river country on and those little speed boats. When I was a kid those were so popular I zip by the poly, by mk then river country and a few laps around the island. They were everywhere!!!! Good times!,

[@cindykong7250]

Hello from Toronto! We were one of the families that talked to you when you were on the way to the Haunted Mansion ride! Magic Kingdom was the first park of our vacation and it made our day that we ran into the Tracker family! We were originally going to the Disney trip in March 2020 and of course that didn't happen. Just want to mention again how much we enjoyed your vlogs during the pandemic as we were not able to travel outside of Canada. All the best!

[@Monkeyboy1138]

I was expecting the Magic Band+ to flash and pulse throughout the show, but it just seemed to be the rotating flashing in one colour and sporadically too. I’m guessing if a lot of folks in the crowd have Magic Band+ then the sea of interaction would be really impressive.

[@brandiarmstrong3627]

Well didn't get notified but love yalls videos!!! Thank you for uploading daily, it honestly means alot 💓

[@monicavictoria787]

You should have Jackson try boba one day! He would love it, get a non caffeinated version of course but orlando has so many great boba spots around town. He's a much more open minded eater than a lot of other kids.

[@MrWestNileVirus]

I like how the guy was like "Really, Tim?" 😂

[@natashasaralegui1563]

TIM, I LOVE YOUR MUPPETS SHIRT. I wish we still had ours at Disneyland. It was my favorite. Jen" we're the same so it doesn't really matter." Lol competitive I love it. Haha

[@lesliereynolds4492]

I had to watch this 3 times cuz I kept missing parts. Really enjoyed it. Liked your food reviews and the magic band plus reviews. From other peoples reviews too, it looks like it’s best for little kids.

[@donnap8889]

Absolutely amazing, loved Jackson driving the car he is so cute xx

[@bridgetclement2968]

9:25 i can't wait to ride the Carousel with my son. I loved riding it with my Dad. He loved Tea cups. My mom Loved Dumbo and Astro Orbiter

[@yugioht42]

A lot of little kids have trouble with darker rides while they have a love of rides with lots of light. Most kids have an innate fear of the dark. It’s just there. It will take a while for fear to burn out. The best way to fight it is a number of night lights in the house with a few character ones in their room that or projector ones that show a fun scene. You play with them playing down their fears little by little. You get rid of the “boogeymen” one by one. Or you have fun with animals that like the dark. I myself have night lights around the house not like I have a fear just I have very poor vision at night so they help me move around easier at night. They are all motion and light sensitive models that activate when motion is detected or it’s dark for a set time limit before they go off.

[@RobertJMueller]

I was 4 on my first trip to Disney and before we went on Haunted Mansion, my dad explained to me that all the monsters on the ride are just gonna be dolls. And in my little preschooler head I thought "dolls are for babies, so this ride must be for babies". Because of that, I didn't get scared at all and it actually became my favorite ride in the park, which it still is today.

[@caseyhoolahan8209]

One of my best Disney memories is my Grandpap sitting on a bench with me, eating ice cream together while my family went on the Haunted Mansion. It can be really scary for some kids! I love it now, and Jackson will too one day!

[@kathleensuhy1875]

I was 3 the first time my parents took me on the Haunted Mansion, I’m in my early 40s now. I remember it like it was yesterday. It left that big of an impression on me. I spent the entire time in my dad‘s arms with my head buried in his neck because I got so scared. I started out sitting right beside him but that only lasted until we are around the first corner. I love that ride now and it is my favorite ride. However, I was so frightened then!!!

[@jaimebailey6917]

The funny noise that the touch point made at haunted mansion was the specific touch point speaker. That one on the left side does that (the right one doesn’t). We were there a few weeks ago and rode haunted man room multiple times and heard the speaker each time.

[@thecomplexion7524]

Jackson’s the cutest! You should use some temporary spray and make his hair brown and make him Christopher Robin

[@catherinemiller8904]

Last September my son was 4 and he was soooooo excited to do haunted mansion leading up to our trip....and we went there for our VERY first ride of our kids first trip...then he was so scared. His photo pass photo is one for the books 😂. It was our first ride of the whole trip so thankfully he got over it pretty quick.

[@bridgetclement8167]

I will Never forget watching Fireworks for Halloween party on Mine Train. So Cool

[@gregtitus645]

Tim ,Jenn, it is so nice to see Jackson so grown up . He is getting so good with things like the magic band. He is such a little man.

[@ericfellner3524]

Jackson is just adorable! 😍

[@elizabethsizemore72]

I think the fireworks and MagicBand+ are definitely a fine balance. MagicBand+ can certainly enhance your experience but if it’s to much I think it would be super distracting!

[@tpgslg1283]

Tim enjoyed... ABOUT THREE desserts. ;)

[@crystalnicole6016]

I love your videos, but I super love the staycations/vacation vlogs!! I just started a new job and I can’t get time off for a while and I’m going to live vicariously through your vacays❤️ Jackson gets more adorable every video!!

[@amandadolphin1097]

Absolutely gutted. Me and my husband got married in Eustis on Monday 25th July and have been in the same park as you 4 times since then and haven't been able to say hi and thanks for everything you have done for me. Hopefully in the next few days we'll be able to bump into you if you are in any of the Disney parks x

[@ashleysprinkle5183]

The hotel y’all are staying at is on my bucket list.

[@LatetotheParty23]

We watched fireworks from the Autopia cars and it was awesome! It was like watching the Disneyland fireworks from outside the park in your car on Ball Rd.

[@emilywong4064]

I love Winnie the Pooh! It’s sounds like fun!

[@ChinaDollTravels]

The new snacks at Magic Kingdom looks tasty 👅 and no line at Starbucks normally it’s a long line first thing in the morning

[@megannelsonpazera]

I love that Jackson has the same love for monorails as Tim haha 😂

[@gmgamegeek2016]

Monorail orange my favorite! 🧡🚝

[@soitsmelaura]

it seems like the magic band + sensors are lower which makes sense for the kiddies ... it looks like the magic band didn't need to be charged for at least that one day ... didn't know contemporary had a waterslide that's fun

[@TheDisneykid777]

It always surprises me how articulate Jackson is. I feel like he was a baby just a few months ago
