    I was at the outlets near Universal and we were sitting on a bench. A rather large woman sat right next to me. We stood up and walked about 6 shops down when I realized I didn’t have my camera. I turned and walked quickly back towards the bench, the lady stood up and there was my camera. Her top had covered it. Just in time I got it back. I find I’m used to carrying a certain amount of things so when I carry more I have a good chance of forgetting something.

    Love Mitsukoski! The shop in the back of China is super fun too, they’ve added a lot more snacks & drinks over the years. I find on hot days in Epcot I have to walk through every pavilion so I’m bouncing into AC non stop. Also idk if you’ve ever tried it but Liquid IV is a life saver in the heat for me, I find it really helps keep my hydration up. It’s loaded with electrolytes. My Dr. actually suggested it to me & it was a game changer for park days! Also it sounds crazy but if you’re like hot-hot pop into one of the newer bathrooms! The AC has been blasting in them. I like to take a break at Nemo, the aquarium is usually quite cool as well. 😊 I have dysautonomia so I’ve gotta be extra careful in the heat because I’ll hit the ground hahah

Also 2 of the new small shows are out in the heat as well as no place to sit except on hot grass or concrete. EPCOT was my favorite Disney park. I saw it coming when it took forever to bring back the trams. I so miss the old Disney, people aren’t going anymore. They also said they use the money from the USA parks to build the Asian parks. Beijing opened 2 years ago, watched Ordinary Adventures videos (really good). I really want to go to the Japan parks and stay in the Disney hotels cuz you’re guaranteed entry and they are half the price or less then here in USA. I will still watch your videos wherever you vlog, I really enjoy them all.

The first 3 times I rode it I had cataracts so it was just 3 things to see on it, after surgery it was better but no comparison to Indiana Jones. I have only heard rumors it will be changing to Indiana Jones and if it does the lines will definitely be longer. So nice to see more videos from you (even like the ones from England and Ireland).

    How did you get the Guardians VQ if your park reservation was for Animal Kingdom that day? 😮 Also, I’ve never been able to choose later return times for genie + times when picking my rides. It’s always whatever the current callback time is and I can then maybe modify it if it changes but I can’t see an option to pick like a 4PM return time if the current return time is showing 1PM. Am I doing something wrong? 😅

      So this was a bonus date on the calendar for AP park reservations where we didn't need to book a reservation so it allowed us to go to AK first while also being able to join the VQ at 7am for Guardians in Epcot! I didn't really think about it at the time but I guess this is the only way with a ticket that still requires park reservations (like AP) to get a VQ for a park other than the one you intend to visit first! Oh yes that's how genie + worked for me too I was saying I wish it was possible to scroll times like you can when you book the individual lightning lanes (for Tron, Guardian's etc)

    Thank you gor all your detail. I think it's worth mentioning that once you buy, you can sell later, recouping some of the cost per poing at the end. Im considering buying at Boardwalk because there are only 18 years left, and comparing that to buying at Poly & selling after 18 years (im 60, so 18 years seems like all the use I'd need). Its not our of the realm of possibilities that i could sell the contract at the same $250/point I purchased at, given that Disney's price per point will likely be well over that amount.

    Brilliantly done! This is the best comparison video I have seen. THANK YOU for all the time you put into it and, more importantly, for "dumbing it down" so I could understand! I bought my first DVC contract in March 2019. I have since purchased a few more via DVC Resale Market. I use Monera Financial to buy it initially, and then, once the contract is in hand, I try to pay it off. They have never penalized me for doing that, so it's a great way to snatch up a really great low-ball contract and then figure out how to pay for it later :) We own at Beach Club and Aulani. We sold our Grand Californian and are now buying Old Key West. Each contract is 100 pts. I love DVC, and my only regret is not buying sooner.

      Aw thank you! I also used Monera for financing and loved that I could pay it down without penalty. That's essentially why I did it too, the contract was going for such a great price! Ooooh I LOVE OLD KEY WEST! We were originally supposed to own there and love staying there!

    I didn’t like the pretzel. I was really looking forward to it. Now I’m wondering if getting it earlier in the day would have been better.

      Oh no way! I actually wasn't expecting to as pretzels aren't normally my fave snack but ours was so good - it did seem like ours was fresh so maybe that was it? I guess they could end up laying out for a while at times.

    Hi Karen you mentioned that you just added Natasha to your room. My son is joining us for a few days at pop century in September and I would like to add him to our room did you just go to reception. Was there a charge.

      So I had a DVC booking and so there is no charge for us to add guests but as I understand it there is a charge on a regular booking and it's a charge per night - might be worth giving them a call in advance?
