On this show, Rob & Kerri talk about traveling “Around the World”.  With constant construction and detours happening all over Walt Disney World, it’s always good to know how to get from one place to another.  Planning is the key here.  Know which mode of transportation to take, and how long it takes to get there. There are many options to choose from.  Disney bus, monorail, boat, and even Uber or Lyft.  The most exciting thing on the horizon ?  The Disney Skyliner gondola.  More on that as it gets closer to launch. Mystic Dunes is the latest resort they review.  Learn more about his “timeshare” property located just south of Hwy 192. And the real reason they think Magic Kingdom serves alcohol. They also address the common myths and questions they get about travel agents, and why it almost always saves you time and money to use one. Are you a fan of Toy Story? Let Rob & Kerri book the Ultimate Toy Story Experience for you and your family.  Thank you for listening and sharing.  The month of August 2018

There is a right way and a wrong way to book your Disney vacation. We get it, you want to save money, and you should. The words sale, discount, wholesale all sound attractive when they pop up online or at your local store. The problem is they aren't going to really help you plan and book your vacation and in many cases are misleading. In this episode we dig into why booking online or with a big box store is only going to cause stress and end up costing you more time and money in the long run.  We share a couple "must do" foods, including a new food we discovered at Morimoto Asia  - and it wasn't sushi.  And we couldn't leave out ARE YOU SERIOUS. This week we discuss one of the Toy Story Land announcements that some people were upset about.  Our show wouldn't be what it is without YOU, our listener. We have some shout outs and appreciate your tuning in each week. If you would like to support our show, please visit our patreon site for option.

We breakdown a few of the differences between the two water parks at Disney: Blizzard Beach and Typhoon Lagoon. Both have a fun story behind their design and slides you'll find at these parks. Each offers similar yet different experiences.  And we also share our "things to know" and pro tips for visiting the water parks. It's a great way to save on park tickets, but still enjoy some Disney magic on your vacation.  We wrap up this week's show with Rob's new favorite beer.
