Pre-Trip Report: Jules’ All-Star Couple Trip (March/April 2025)

00:00:12.083 --> 00:00:15.783
VIRGINIA: Welcome to Where I Long To Be, A Magical Trip Report Podcast.

00:00:15.783 --> 00:00:18.143
VIRGINIA: My name is Virginia, and I am your host.

00:00:18.143 --> 00:00:22.883
VIRGINIA: I have a new review to share today that was left on Apple Podcasts from MMTrainer17.

00:00:24.023 --> 00:00:29.383
VIRGINIA: This review is in reference to Elizabeth, whose most recent episodes aired on March 24th.

00:00:29.383 --> 00:00:32.723
VIRGINIA: And the subject is magical, with an exclamation point.

00:00:32.783 --> 00:00:35.703
VIRGINIA: MMTrainer17 says, she's back.

00:00:35.703 --> 00:00:38.203
VIRGINIA: These episodes with Elizabeth are amazing.

00:00:38.203 --> 00:00:38.843
VIRGINIA: I love them.

00:00:38.843 --> 00:00:41.043
VIRGINIA: Repeat guest request.

00:00:41.043 --> 00:00:43.203
VIRGINIA: Thank you so much for leaving that review.

00:00:43.203 --> 00:00:45.043
VIRGINIA: And I wholeheartedly agree.

00:00:45.043 --> 00:00:49.823
VIRGINIA: Elizabeth is an absolute fantastic guest and I would love to have her back anytime.

00:00:49.823 --> 00:00:54.203
VIRGINIA: All she has to do is say the word and I'd get her in the schedule in a heartbeat.

00:00:54.203 --> 00:01:00.663
VIRGINIA: If you are looking for a way to support the show and show your appreciation for what I'm doing here, leaving a review is a great way to do that.

00:01:00.663 --> 00:01:07.443
VIRGINIA: You can also share the podcast with friends, share Instagram posts, comment, like, and just overall be engaged.

00:01:07.903 --> 00:01:13.663
VIRGINIA: I love being able to connect with listeners and I truly appreciate it when you make that effort to show me some love.

00:01:13.663 --> 00:01:16.403
VIRGINIA: And now on to this week's episodes.

00:01:16.403 --> 00:01:22.903
VIRGINIA: On today's pre-trip show, I'm welcoming Jules, who is Disneycouple0905 on Instagram.

00:01:22.903 --> 00:01:26.923
VIRGINIA: So without any more delay, here's Jules.

00:01:28.103 --> 00:01:30.183
VIRGINIA: Welcome to the podcast, Juliana.

00:01:30.183 --> 00:01:31.643
JULES: Hi, thank you for having me.

00:01:31.643 --> 00:01:32.443
VIRGINIA: Thank you for being here.

00:01:32.443 --> 00:01:34.383
VIRGINIA: Is it Juliana or Juliana?

00:01:34.383 --> 00:01:35.383
JULES: Juliana.

00:01:35.383 --> 00:01:36.463
VIRGINIA: Juliana, okay.

00:01:36.983 --> 00:01:38.323
JULES: I go by Jules.

00:01:38.323 --> 00:01:39.063
VIRGINIA: Jules, okay.

00:01:39.063 --> 00:01:41.123
VIRGINIA: That was my next question, was going to be to ask you.

00:01:41.423 --> 00:01:48.343
VIRGINIA: I noticed on your Instagram, it says Jules, and so I was wondering if that was what I should be calling you.

00:01:48.503 --> 00:01:52.843
VIRGINIA: I'm going to refer to you as Jules from here on out, now that we're friends.

00:01:56.183 --> 00:01:59.423
VIRGINIA: I don't know anything about you besides what I see on Instagram.

00:01:59.423 --> 00:02:05.143
VIRGINIA: I know that you are part of the Disneycouple, and your handle is Disneycouple0905.

00:02:05.683 --> 00:02:07.083
VIRGINIA: Tell me a little bit about that.

00:02:07.083 --> 00:02:11.803
VIRGINIA: Tell me who's the other half of your couple, and is there meaning behind the 0905?

00:02:11.803 --> 00:02:12.583
JULES: Yes.

00:02:12.583 --> 00:02:15.563
JULES: I made the account with my boyfriend Justin.

00:02:15.563 --> 00:02:24.923
JULES: I pulled him into the Disney circle, and 0905 signifies that we started dating September on the 5th.

00:02:24.923 --> 00:02:26.763
JULES: So that's how I came up with that.

00:02:26.783 --> 00:02:28.383
VIRGINIA: Okay.

00:02:28.383 --> 00:02:32.863
VIRGINIA: I was wondering if it was someone's birthday or something, and I'm a September baby myself.

00:02:33.563 --> 00:02:34.743
JULES: Oh, no.

00:02:35.823 --> 00:02:36.723
VIRGINIA: All right.

00:02:36.723 --> 00:02:40.303
VIRGINIA: So you and Justin are the Disney couple.

00:02:40.303 --> 00:02:44.243
VIRGINIA: How many trips to Disney have you been on together as a couple before?

00:02:44.243 --> 00:02:48.303
JULES: We've probably been on about five together.

00:02:48.303 --> 00:02:53.983
JULES: We don't go like a week, just a couple days to get away together, and we really enjoy it a lot.

00:02:53.983 --> 00:02:58.483
VIRGINIA: How long have you been a Disney fan, and what sort of Disney fan are you?

00:02:58.483 --> 00:03:17.463
VIRGINIA: Because I know that there are some people who are into going to the parks because they love the movies and stuff so much, but then there are other people, and I feel like I sort of fall into the second camp where I really enjoy the movies, I enjoy the characters, but I'm more of like a parks person, specifically at heart.

00:03:17.463 --> 00:03:21.663
VIRGINIA: Like, I love the parks, and the other stuff is just like, yeah, I like that.

00:03:21.983 --> 00:03:27.063
VIRGINIA: It's great, but what draws me in is the storytelling and the details of the parks.

00:03:27.063 --> 00:03:30.143
VIRGINIA: So how would you classify yourself, and how long have you been a fan?

00:03:31.223 --> 00:03:34.623
JULES: So my family's been taking me since I was two years old.

00:03:34.623 --> 00:03:40.023
JULES: We went almost every year for vacation, and we always stay at the Wilderness Lodge.

00:03:40.023 --> 00:03:41.723
JULES: That's my favorite resort to stay at.

00:03:41.783 --> 00:03:43.383
VIRGINIA: Me too.

00:03:43.383 --> 00:03:43.723
JULES: Yes.

00:03:43.723 --> 00:03:45.123
JULES: It's such a homey resort.

00:03:45.123 --> 00:03:47.563
JULES: Like, it gives you that added home Disney feeling.

00:03:47.563 --> 00:03:48.843
VIRGINIA: Yeah.

00:03:48.843 --> 00:03:52.923
JULES: I've watched all the movies again from when I was born.

00:03:52.923 --> 00:04:01.403
JULES: So seeing all the movies, it was so amazing to me to see it all in person, and like meeting the princesses, and having the breakfast with Cinderella.

00:04:01.403 --> 00:04:04.643
JULES: So the movies really just draw me into Disney.

00:04:04.643 --> 00:04:05.823
JULES: And I do love the parks.

00:04:05.823 --> 00:04:10.663
JULES: So I would say I'm in the middle, because going to the parks is just like, I'm in my happy place.

00:04:10.663 --> 00:04:12.723
JULES: Nothing on the outside is on my mind.

00:04:12.723 --> 00:04:15.643
JULES: Just walking down Main Street happy.

00:04:15.643 --> 00:04:20.523
VIRGINIA: I think a lot of people are in that same mindset when they go to Disney.

00:04:20.523 --> 00:04:29.823
VIRGINIA: They call it the Disney bubble for a reason, and it's because people feel like they're safe in this little bubble and you don't have to even think about the outside world at all.

00:04:29.823 --> 00:04:42.283
VIRGINIA: And that's really comforting when you think about the state of the world and everything that's going on in addition to just whatever you might have going on in your own life.

00:04:42.283 --> 00:04:44.543
VIRGINIA: So yeah, it's really comforting.

00:04:44.543 --> 00:04:45.283
JULES: For sure.

00:04:45.283 --> 00:04:48.283
VIRGINIA: Where are you situated in the world?

00:04:48.283 --> 00:04:50.603
VIRGINIA: How far are you from Orlando?

00:04:50.603 --> 00:04:53.783
JULES: We're about two hours from Orlando.

00:04:53.783 --> 00:04:56.603
JULES: So we'll take a lot of day trips.

00:04:56.903 --> 00:04:59.603
JULES: We take up, so it's really fun.

00:04:59.603 --> 00:05:02.743
JULES: And when we go on vacations, we just drive up.

00:05:02.743 --> 00:05:08.903
JULES: And it's just nice to get away in the hotels because it's a different experience than just taking day trips, in my opinion.

00:05:08.943 --> 00:05:10.183
VIRGINIA: Oh, for sure.

00:05:10.183 --> 00:05:14.603
JULES: Getting on the Disney buses and like, it's just all different than for a day trip.

00:05:14.603 --> 00:05:16.823
JULES: But we really enjoy both.

00:05:16.823 --> 00:05:22.323
VIRGINIA: Have you ever stayed off property or do you strictly stay in the bubble?

00:05:22.323 --> 00:05:23.743
JULES: I've never stayed off property.

00:05:24.243 --> 00:05:28.063
JULES: I've always just stayed in any of the Disney resorts.

00:05:28.063 --> 00:05:29.263
VIRGINIA: That's what I prefer.

00:05:29.263 --> 00:05:32.603
VIRGINIA: I can't think of a time I've stayed off property at Disney World.

00:05:32.603 --> 00:05:35.463
JULES: It's the full experience at Disney hotels.

00:05:35.463 --> 00:05:36.183
VIRGINIA: Yeah.

00:05:36.183 --> 00:05:36.563
VIRGINIA: Yeah.

00:05:36.563 --> 00:05:38.323
VIRGINIA: No, it's the theming, it's the details.

00:05:38.323 --> 00:05:41.803
VIRGINIA: It's knowing that cast members are the people they're helping you.

00:05:42.743 --> 00:05:44.723
VIRGINIA: It really does make a difference.

00:05:44.723 --> 00:05:45.663
JULES: It does.

00:05:45.663 --> 00:05:46.023
VIRGINIA: All right.

00:05:46.023 --> 00:05:48.863
VIRGINIA: So you're two hours away from Orlando.

00:05:49.743 --> 00:05:54.043
VIRGINIA: So every time driving, never have to take a flight.

00:05:54.043 --> 00:05:54.863
VIRGINIA: That's lucky.

00:05:54.863 --> 00:05:56.563
VIRGINIA: That keeps your cost down.

00:05:56.563 --> 00:05:58.323
VIRGINIA: Are you annual pass holders?

00:05:58.323 --> 00:05:58.683
JULES: Yes.

00:05:58.683 --> 00:06:01.543
JULES: We just have the Pixie Pass right now.

00:06:01.543 --> 00:06:05.443
JULES: We're thinking of upgrading it to the weekends too.

00:06:05.443 --> 00:06:06.263
VIRGINIA: Oh, okay.

00:06:06.263 --> 00:06:09.443
JULES: It just works with our schedules right now to just have during the week.

00:06:09.443 --> 00:06:14.143
VIRGINIA: And do you have blockouts for holiday weeks and stuff as well?

00:06:14.143 --> 00:06:15.283
JULES: Yes, we do.

00:06:15.283 --> 00:06:15.783
VIRGINIA: Okay.

00:06:15.783 --> 00:06:16.103
JULES: All right.

00:06:16.123 --> 00:06:20.483
JULES: We usually do our holidays a little early at Disney since it's blocked out.

00:06:20.483 --> 00:06:21.983
VIRGINIA: But yeah.

00:06:21.983 --> 00:06:26.643
VIRGINIA: But at least you get a Florida resident price, which makes a difference.

00:06:26.643 --> 00:06:30.503
VIRGINIA: And also being able to break that into monthly payments.

00:06:30.503 --> 00:06:32.223
JULES: That's very helpful.

00:06:32.223 --> 00:06:33.423
VIRGINIA: Yeah, very helpful.

00:06:33.423 --> 00:06:38.183
VIRGINIA: Every July, I'm like, here I go, selling my first book.

00:06:38.183 --> 00:06:39.623
VIRGINIA: I only have one child.

00:06:39.623 --> 00:06:40.403
VIRGINIA: I'm not going to sell him.

00:06:40.403 --> 00:06:44.963
VIRGINIA: He's worth a lot to me, but you know what I mean, like having to shell out all that money.

00:06:45.103 --> 00:06:48.963
VIRGINIA: But then because I do it all at one time, it makes it feel free the rest of the year.

00:06:48.963 --> 00:06:51.223
VIRGINIA: So it is what it is.

00:06:51.223 --> 00:06:52.663
VIRGINIA: It is what it is.

00:06:52.663 --> 00:06:53.163
VIRGINIA: All right.

00:06:53.163 --> 00:06:59.363
VIRGINIA: Let's get into the details of this trip that you and Justin are taking.

00:06:59.363 --> 00:07:04.003
VIRGINIA: So first of all, what dates are you traveling and how did you choose those dates?

00:07:04.003 --> 00:07:09.803
JULES: We're leaving March 31st and then driving back home on the third, April 3rd.

00:07:09.803 --> 00:07:16.663
JULES: And I was just picking those dates because we're trying to go to the water park because you get the free day.

00:07:16.663 --> 00:07:22.643
JULES: So we were just figuring it'd be warmer here in that time and we wanted to go because our last trip was in October.

00:07:22.643 --> 00:07:25.483
JULES: I wanted to try to get there as soon as possible back.

00:07:25.483 --> 00:07:33.003
VIRGINIA: I traveled down to Orlando both in January and February and both trips, it was a split stay between two different resorts.

00:07:33.003 --> 00:07:54.323
VIRGINIA: So I had four opportunities to go to water park and only one of the days was warm enough for me to have done so, but it was my arrival day and it just didn't happen and I wanted to take advantage of it, but at least it's free, so if you don't make it over there, it's not so bad.

00:07:54.323 --> 00:07:55.643
JULES: For sure.

00:07:55.643 --> 00:07:56.423
VIRGINIA: All right.

00:07:57.303 --> 00:08:01.783
VIRGINIA: So you have your annual passes, you have your date set, where are you staying?

00:08:01.783 --> 00:08:04.423
JULES: We're staying at All-Star Sports Resort.

00:08:04.423 --> 00:08:06.023
VIRGINIA: Have you stayed there before?

00:08:06.023 --> 00:08:07.343
JULES: Yes, we have.

00:08:07.343 --> 00:08:07.563
VIRGINIA: Okay.

00:08:07.563 --> 00:08:09.683
VIRGINIA: Have you stayed at all of the All-Stars?

00:08:09.683 --> 00:08:09.983
JULES: Yes.

00:08:10.683 --> 00:08:10.963
VIRGINIA: Okay.

00:08:10.963 --> 00:08:13.683
VIRGINIA: So how do you rank them, in your opinion?

00:08:13.683 --> 00:08:16.603
JULES: My personal favorite is movies.

00:08:16.603 --> 00:08:19.403
JULES: It just has them like at home Disney feeling.

00:08:19.403 --> 00:08:21.303
JULES: I really love the Toy Story section.

00:08:21.363 --> 00:08:24.663
JULES: It's really fun to walk around and take pictures.

00:08:24.663 --> 00:08:30.243
JULES: Then sports is my second because I'm really into sports, so I enjoy it a lot.

00:08:30.243 --> 00:08:32.703
JULES: I guess music is my third.

00:08:32.703 --> 00:08:33.963
JULES: I really love them all though.

00:08:33.963 --> 00:08:36.063
JULES: They all just have such different theming.

00:08:36.063 --> 00:08:40.343
JULES: It's really hard to compare them, but I guess it's just based on your preference of what you like the most.

00:08:40.343 --> 00:08:41.143
VIRGINIA: Yeah.

00:08:41.143 --> 00:08:45.043
VIRGINIA: That is nice is that you know what you're going to get.

00:08:45.043 --> 00:08:49.563
VIRGINIA: It's just the theme that's different, but the setup of each resort is pretty similar.

00:08:49.563 --> 00:08:56.303
VIRGINIA: I would say even compared to Pop Century, I stayed at my first All-Star in January.

00:08:56.823 --> 00:08:59.003
VIRGINIA: I've stayed at Pop Century a lot of times.

00:08:59.303 --> 00:09:11.363
VIRGINIA: When I checked in to All-Star music, there was a familiarity there because the setup of the resort felt so similar, and it's just a slightly different theme.

00:09:11.363 --> 00:09:12.703
VIRGINIA: So I enjoyed it.

00:09:12.703 --> 00:09:21.663
VIRGINIA: I would definitely go back and you cannot beat the price on the All-Star and particularly All-Star sports usually tends to be the most affordable.

00:09:21.663 --> 00:09:31.543
VIRGINIA: So I'm glad I had a good experience with my first day because now I'm just like, oh, those feel like an option now because I know that they're nice and the rooms are renovated and it's all good.

00:09:31.543 --> 00:09:40.403
VIRGINIA: Okay, so Monday, March 31st, what time do you anticipate you'll be rolling into town?

00:09:40.403 --> 00:09:44.243
JULES: We're going to try to get there for opening for the water park.

00:09:44.243 --> 00:09:46.523
JULES: I believe Blizzard Beach is open.

00:09:46.523 --> 00:09:47.783
VIRGINIA: Do you know what time it opens?

00:09:47.783 --> 00:09:50.783
JULES: I believe it opens at 10 o'clock in the morning.

00:09:50.783 --> 00:09:51.643
VIRGINIA: Yeah, okay.

00:09:51.663 --> 00:09:52.803
VIRGINIA: That's what I thought.

00:09:52.803 --> 00:10:00.163
JULES: My plan is to try to be in the parking lot at least by 930, just to take advantage of the full day at the water park.

00:10:00.163 --> 00:10:05.803
JULES: We don't go much at all to them, so we were really looking forward to it.

00:10:05.803 --> 00:10:07.163
VIRGINIA: I need to get to Blizzard Beach.

00:10:07.163 --> 00:10:15.223
VIRGINIA: I've never been to Blizzard Beach before, and I've only been to Typhoon Lagoon twice, and both times were for an H2O glow night party.

00:10:15.223 --> 00:10:15.603
JULES: Okay.

00:10:15.603 --> 00:10:25.563
VIRGINIA: So I've never been to the water park in just a normal daytime circumstance, so that's on my list of things to try as well.

00:10:25.563 --> 00:10:38.863
VIRGINIA: I know that when you're at the water park, they do offer a refillable mug, and it seems to me like maybe that's, depending on what you like to drink, that would be something to take advantage of if you were going to spend the whole day there.

00:10:38.863 --> 00:10:42.403
VIRGINIA: Is that something that you've looked into or that you're considering?

00:10:42.403 --> 00:10:43.523
JULES: I've looked into it.

00:10:43.523 --> 00:10:47.583
JULES: I'm just very picky, and I don't drink like soda or anything.

00:10:47.583 --> 00:10:51.103
JULES: I just strictly drink water, so it's not for me.

00:10:51.103 --> 00:10:58.063
JULES: Justin likes it though, so he might get into that, but I'm just not a big soda drinker, so it's not worth it for me.

00:10:58.063 --> 00:10:59.903
VIRGINIA: How are you with water slides?

00:10:59.983 --> 00:11:03.263
VIRGINIA: Are you a go-on anything type of person?

00:11:03.263 --> 00:11:04.943
JULES: Yeah, I'll do all of them.

00:11:04.943 --> 00:11:06.603
JULES: I really enjoy them.

00:11:06.603 --> 00:11:12.183
JULES: We went to Typhoon Lagoon last summer and did everything, so I'm pretty excited.

00:11:12.183 --> 00:11:17.103
JULES: I went to Blizzard Beach years ago, and I'm really looking forward to getting back on all of them.

00:11:17.103 --> 00:11:19.683
JULES: Justin, he's never been though, so we'll see.

00:11:19.683 --> 00:11:20.443
VIRGINIA: He hasn't.

00:11:21.383 --> 00:11:23.923
VIRGINIA: He's been to Typhoon Lagoon, but not Blizzard Beach?

00:11:23.923 --> 00:11:24.663
JULES: Right.

00:11:24.663 --> 00:11:25.163
VIRGINIA: Got it.

00:11:25.163 --> 00:11:25.563
VIRGINIA: Okay.

00:11:25.563 --> 00:11:25.863
VIRGINIA: Yeah.

00:11:25.863 --> 00:11:32.063
VIRGINIA: They alternate different times of the year, and you really just have to catch it at the right time to try the one that you haven't been to.

00:11:32.063 --> 00:11:32.303
JULES: Yeah.

00:11:32.303 --> 00:11:33.043
VIRGINIA: Okay.

00:11:33.043 --> 00:11:35.503
VIRGINIA: So you're doing that all day.

00:11:35.503 --> 00:11:38.963
VIRGINIA: Do you have any other plans on the 31st?

00:11:38.963 --> 00:11:43.563
VIRGINIA: Any dining reservations or anything you're going to do after your waterpark time is over?

00:11:43.563 --> 00:11:43.883
JULES: Yes.

00:11:43.883 --> 00:11:47.963
JULES: So after the waterpark, we'll go back to the hotel and relax a little bit.

00:11:47.963 --> 00:11:51.703
JULES: And we have a reservation at Steakhouse 71.

00:11:51.703 --> 00:11:53.463
JULES: Oh, nice.

00:11:53.463 --> 00:11:58.343
JULES: We've never been before, and since we're not in the park, I figured a hotel dinner would be nice.

00:11:58.463 --> 00:11:59.283
VIRGINIA: For sure.

00:11:59.283 --> 00:12:01.343
VIRGINIA: What time is that dinner at?

00:12:01.343 --> 00:12:03.023
JULES: It's at 7 o 5.

00:12:03.023 --> 00:12:04.003
VIRGINIA: Okay.

00:12:04.003 --> 00:12:11.923
VIRGINIA: So you have left yourself open to the possibility of eating dinner and then maybe going upstairs to the balcony of the contemporary and watching fireworks.

00:12:11.923 --> 00:12:13.703
JULES: Exactly my plan.

00:12:14.823 --> 00:12:16.243
VIRGINIA: I knew where your head was going.

00:12:16.243 --> 00:12:17.623
VIRGINIA: Okay.

00:12:17.623 --> 00:12:23.363
VIRGINIA: Have you looked at the menu for Steakhouse 71, and has anything caught your eye?

00:12:23.363 --> 00:12:26.363
JULES: I'm a big fan of steak, so I didn't look at the menu.

00:12:26.563 --> 00:12:29.343
JULES: I was just assuming that I'll find something.

00:12:29.343 --> 00:12:31.263
VIRGINIA: Oh, I'm sure you'll find something.

00:12:31.263 --> 00:12:38.763
VIRGINIA: My thing is I have to look ahead of time because sometimes there's so many choices that I want.

00:12:38.763 --> 00:12:41.363
VIRGINIA: I have to have had time to think about it and narrow it down.

00:12:41.363 --> 00:12:43.603
VIRGINIA: Otherwise, I'm just like, I don't know what to get.

00:12:43.603 --> 00:12:45.063
VIRGINIA: I call it menu ADD.

00:12:45.063 --> 00:12:50.123
VIRGINIA: It's like where I can't even focus on the menu at all because there's just so many things to look at.

00:12:50.123 --> 00:12:52.103
VIRGINIA: So I try to look in advance to help with that.

00:12:52.103 --> 00:12:53.523
JULES: I understand.

00:12:53.523 --> 00:12:54.243
VIRGINIA: Okay.

00:12:54.243 --> 00:12:58.043
VIRGINIA: Let's move into Tuesday, April 1st, which is April Fool's Day.

00:12:58.043 --> 00:13:02.683
VIRGINIA: So hopefully you have no tricks played on you that day.

00:13:02.683 --> 00:13:03.643
VIRGINIA: What is the plan?

00:13:03.643 --> 00:13:08.183
JULES: We're going to spend the day at Magic Kingdom and stay for the fireworks.

00:13:08.183 --> 00:13:10.863
VIRGINIA: Do you plan on getting multi-pass?

00:13:10.863 --> 00:13:13.483
JULES: We don't do any of the passes.

00:13:13.483 --> 00:13:16.163
JULES: I feel like since we go so much.

00:13:16.163 --> 00:13:16.723
VIRGINIA: Right.

00:13:16.723 --> 00:13:19.283
JULES: It's not the end of the world of us not to get it.

00:13:19.283 --> 00:13:25.603
JULES: So we just get there really early for early entry and just book it and just go by the way times all day.

00:13:27.183 --> 00:13:39.143
VIRGINIA: When you go very frequently, that is typically what I hear from people, just because there's kind of a scarcity mindset when you don't go very often, like I have to get this all in.

00:13:39.143 --> 00:13:46.383
VIRGINIA: But when you get to go as often as you do, it becomes more of a like, well, if we do it, we do it.

00:13:46.383 --> 00:13:47.163
VIRGINIA: If we don't, we don't.

00:13:47.163 --> 00:13:48.623
VIRGINIA: We'll hit it next time.

00:13:48.623 --> 00:13:49.263
JULES: Right.

00:13:49.263 --> 00:13:51.723
VIRGINIA: What are your priorities for Magic Kingdom?

00:13:51.723 --> 00:13:57.403
VIRGINIA: Are there any attractions, rides that you specifically are like, we have to do that?

00:13:57.403 --> 00:14:01.043
JULES: I always like to get on Haunted Mansion for sure.

00:14:01.043 --> 00:14:02.763
JULES: And the People Mover.

00:14:02.763 --> 00:14:03.963
JULES: Those are my two.

00:14:04.643 --> 00:14:06.603
JULES: I have to get on.

00:14:06.603 --> 00:14:09.163
VIRGINIA: The People Mover is one of my favorites.

00:14:09.163 --> 00:14:10.843
VIRGINIA: There's just something about it.

00:14:10.843 --> 00:14:11.343
JULES: It is.

00:14:11.343 --> 00:14:13.983
JULES: When you just turn the corner and see the castle.

00:14:13.983 --> 00:14:15.003
VIRGINIA: Yeah.

00:14:15.003 --> 00:14:16.243
JULES: It's so relaxing.

00:14:16.243 --> 00:14:18.983
VIRGINIA: Also for me, it's the narration.

00:14:18.983 --> 00:14:25.563
VIRGINIA: There's certain Disney narration that just really makes me feel Disney.

00:14:25.563 --> 00:14:26.763
JULES: Yeah, I agree.

00:14:26.763 --> 00:14:34.923
VIRGINIA: That one, the Living With The Land voice, the voice of the person telling you to stand clear of the closing doors, all of those things.

00:14:34.923 --> 00:14:38.323
VIRGINIA: Every time I hear those, I'm just like, I'm in Disney.

00:14:38.323 --> 00:14:38.983
VIRGINIA: Everything's great.

00:14:38.983 --> 00:14:39.543
JULES: Yes.

00:14:39.543 --> 00:14:40.423
JULES: It's the best.

00:14:40.423 --> 00:14:42.843
VIRGINIA: Any dining reservations for Tuesday?

00:14:42.843 --> 00:14:57.163
JULES: We don't have any because my plan was to go back to the hotel midday and just relax and then go back at night, so we might just eat at our hotel or grab a quick servant magic again.

00:14:57.383 --> 00:14:59.443
JULES: So I don't have any right now.

00:14:59.443 --> 00:15:04.923
VIRGINIA: Wednesday, April the 2nd, which park are you heading to on this day?

00:15:04.923 --> 00:15:06.683
JULES: So we're doing two parks.

00:15:06.683 --> 00:15:08.063
VIRGINIA: Oh, okay.

00:15:08.103 --> 00:15:11.923
JULES: In the morning, we're going to rope drop Animal Kingdom.

00:15:11.923 --> 00:15:15.803
JULES: Then like midday, we'll go back and just relax.

00:15:15.803 --> 00:15:18.543
JULES: And then we're going to head to Hollywood Studios for the night.

00:15:18.543 --> 00:15:26.643
VIRGINIA: Animal Kingdom opens earlier, so you will be there at rope drop at the crack of dawn.

00:15:26.643 --> 00:15:28.503
JULES: Yes, every day.

00:15:29.743 --> 00:15:31.083
VIRGINIA: Is that how you typically roll?

00:15:31.083 --> 00:15:33.343
VIRGINIA: You're always a rope dropper?

00:15:33.343 --> 00:15:34.103
JULES: Yes, I am.

00:15:34.103 --> 00:15:37.983
JULES: I make the most, even if we go so much, I make the most of it every time.

00:15:37.983 --> 00:15:38.903
VIRGINIA: Uh-huh.

00:15:38.903 --> 00:15:45.743
VIRGINIA: So rope dropping, it sounds like closing out the park, but always having some sort of break in the middle of the day.

00:15:45.743 --> 00:15:48.463
JULES: Yeah, I just feel like we both kind of need that.

00:15:48.463 --> 00:15:51.883
JULES: Like midday, it gets so hot at a certain point of the day.

00:15:53.143 --> 00:15:57.523
JULES: We don't relax that long, maybe an hour or so, and then we head right back out.

00:15:57.523 --> 00:15:58.243
VIRGINIA: Yeah.

00:15:58.243 --> 00:15:59.343
VIRGINIA: You know what?

00:15:59.343 --> 00:16:01.283
VIRGINIA: Even a little break like that helps.

00:16:01.283 --> 00:16:02.423
JULES: It does.

00:16:02.423 --> 00:16:04.543
VIRGINIA: What are your priorities at Animal Kingdom?

00:16:04.983 --> 00:16:07.883
JULES: I definitely want to see the baby tiger.

00:16:08.083 --> 00:16:09.603
JULES: I haven't seen him yet.

00:16:09.603 --> 00:16:12.463
VIRGINIA: I have not seen him yet either.

00:16:12.463 --> 00:16:13.843
VIRGINIA: Do you know his name?

00:16:13.843 --> 00:16:14.783
JULES: Basco?

00:16:14.783 --> 00:16:15.923
JULES: Is that how you say it?

00:16:15.923 --> 00:16:16.543
VIRGINIA: I don't know.

00:16:17.043 --> 00:16:20.083
VIRGINIA: I was literally asking because I don't even know, so let me look up.

00:16:20.083 --> 00:16:21.503
VIRGINIA: I'm just going to Google it real quick.

00:16:21.503 --> 00:16:25.063
VIRGINIA: Baby Tiger, Animal Kingdom.

00:16:25.063 --> 00:16:27.023
VIRGINIA: Oh, Bakso.

00:16:28.123 --> 00:16:30.483
VIRGINIA: B-A-K-S-O.

00:16:30.483 --> 00:16:32.863
VIRGINIA: Get weekly baby Bakso updates.

00:16:34.703 --> 00:16:39.363
VIRGINIA: Listeners, if you want baby Bakso updates, check out the Disney Parks blog.

00:16:39.363 --> 00:16:41.363
VIRGINIA: Oh my gosh, he is so cute.

00:16:41.363 --> 00:16:42.943
JULES: He looks so cute.

00:16:42.943 --> 00:16:43.603
VIRGINIA: He does.

00:16:43.603 --> 00:16:48.503
VIRGINIA: I don't even like cats, but I'm a dog person, but he's adorable.

00:16:48.503 --> 00:16:49.883
VIRGINIA: He is adorable.

00:16:49.883 --> 00:16:50.443
VIRGINIA: All right.

00:16:50.443 --> 00:16:52.363
VIRGINIA: Checking out baby Bakso.

00:16:52.863 --> 00:16:53.323
VIRGINIA: What else?

00:16:53.323 --> 00:16:57.863
VIRGINIA: Do you have any other rides or shows that you are aiming for?

00:16:57.923 --> 00:17:01.043
JULES: Yes, we always see on Festival of the Lion King.

00:17:01.043 --> 00:17:02.883
JULES: That never gets old to me.

00:17:02.883 --> 00:17:10.883
JULES: We try to do Flight of Passage, if it's not insane of a wait, because it's just really nice.

00:17:10.883 --> 00:17:13.543
JULES: Now, I guess that Dino Land is gone.

00:17:13.543 --> 00:17:16.663
JULES: It's going to be different experience.

00:17:16.663 --> 00:17:17.563
VIRGINIA: It will be.

00:17:17.563 --> 00:17:20.323
VIRGINIA: Are you any sort of Disney foodie?

00:17:20.323 --> 00:17:25.323
VIRGINIA: Because Animal Kingdom has a lot of good snacks.

00:17:25.323 --> 00:17:36.723
VIRGINIA: I was wondering, are you somebody who, in addition to having certain rides and shows on your list of like, we'd like to do this today, also have certain snacks that are on your list?

00:17:36.723 --> 00:17:38.283
JULES: I'm not that much into it.

00:17:38.283 --> 00:17:40.023
JULES: I'm like really picky.

00:17:40.023 --> 00:17:45.503
JULES: So I don't make like snacks, like one of my priorities, just because I know how I am.

00:17:45.503 --> 00:17:52.383
JULES: But I just make getting my popcorn buckets and sippers, my like, need to get everywhere.

00:17:52.383 --> 00:17:52.823
VIRGINIA: Yeah.

00:17:52.823 --> 00:17:55.883
VIRGINIA: Having the refillable popcorn bucket is such a great deal.

00:17:56.563 --> 00:17:57.263
JULES: It is.

00:17:57.263 --> 00:17:59.583
VIRGINIA: My problem is remembering to pack it in my suitcase.

00:17:59.583 --> 00:18:01.383
JULES: But I know me too.

00:18:01.383 --> 00:18:04.483
JULES: I like leave it in the room and I'm like, well, there it goes.

00:18:04.483 --> 00:18:05.103
VIRGINIA: Yeah.

00:18:06.143 --> 00:18:07.063
VIRGINIA: All right.

00:18:07.063 --> 00:18:14.163
VIRGINIA: Then the break between the two parks and then going over to Hollywood Studios for the night.

00:18:14.163 --> 00:18:15.463
VIRGINIA: Hollywood Studios at night.

00:18:15.463 --> 00:18:16.923
VIRGINIA: Can't beat it.

00:18:16.923 --> 00:18:19.243
VIRGINIA: What is your plan for that evening?

00:18:19.303 --> 00:18:23.783
JULES: So we have a reservation for Roundup Rodeo at 6.

00:18:23.783 --> 00:18:24.063
VIRGINIA: Okay.

00:18:24.063 --> 00:18:25.543
VIRGINIA: Have you eaten there before?

00:18:25.543 --> 00:18:26.023
JULES: We have.

00:18:26.023 --> 00:18:27.323
JULES: We really enjoy it.

00:18:27.323 --> 00:18:28.603
JULES: It's just so cute.

00:18:28.603 --> 00:18:29.643
JULES: I love Toy Story.

00:18:29.643 --> 00:18:30.943
JULES: It's one of my favorites.

00:18:30.943 --> 00:18:34.023
JULES: Just the whole dining experience is so cute.

00:18:34.023 --> 00:18:36.443
JULES: So I always like to go more staying overnight.

00:18:36.443 --> 00:18:36.783
VIRGINIA: Yeah.

00:18:36.783 --> 00:18:38.163
VIRGINIA: It's a lot of food.

00:18:38.163 --> 00:18:39.263
JULES: It is a lot.

00:18:39.263 --> 00:18:39.543
VIRGINIA: Yeah.

00:18:39.543 --> 00:18:40.183
VIRGINIA: It's really cute.

00:18:40.183 --> 00:18:42.803
VIRGINIA: I went there for the first time last month.

00:18:42.803 --> 00:18:43.063
VIRGINIA: Yes.

00:18:43.063 --> 00:18:43.543
VIRGINIA: Last month.

00:18:43.863 --> 00:18:45.143
VIRGINIA: It's March now.

00:18:45.143 --> 00:18:47.043
VIRGINIA: What else are you going to be doing that evening?

00:18:47.563 --> 00:18:53.743
VIRGINIA: And I guess I understood how much you'd like the fireworks because you want to watch them at least twice.

00:18:53.743 --> 00:18:57.163
VIRGINIA: Do you take advantage of the other night time shows at the other parks?

00:18:57.163 --> 00:19:01.063
VIRGINIA: Like for Hollywood Studios, they do that thing on the Chinese theater.

00:19:01.063 --> 00:19:02.843
VIRGINIA: Is that something that you stay and watch?

00:19:02.843 --> 00:19:06.923
JULES: We've seen that a couple of times, but my main priority is to see Phantasmac.

00:19:06.923 --> 00:19:08.403
VIRGINIA: I was going to say Phantasmac.

00:19:09.463 --> 00:19:13.903
JULES: One night we saw the show on the Chinese theater.

00:19:13.963 --> 00:19:18.563
JULES: It was like at 8, and then they had a Phantasmac showing at, it was 9 or 9.30.

00:19:18.563 --> 00:19:21.643
JULES: So then we sprinted over and got to see both.

00:19:21.643 --> 00:19:25.943
JULES: But we're probably just going to aim to see Phantasmac this trip.

00:19:25.943 --> 00:19:28.363
VIRGINIA: Phantasmac is amazing.

00:19:28.363 --> 00:19:29.563
VIRGINIA: I love it.

00:19:29.563 --> 00:19:29.883
JULES: It is.

00:19:29.883 --> 00:19:33.183
JULES: I got my new sorcerer Mickey ears, so I'm ready.

00:19:33.183 --> 00:19:34.363
VIRGINIA: Oh, you know what?

00:19:34.363 --> 00:19:41.603
VIRGINIA: Your mind just went exactly where mine went, which was dang it, I did not get the hoodie I was trying to get when I was there.

00:19:42.243 --> 00:19:46.823
VIRGINIA: Because when I finally decided I wanted it, it was nowhere to be found.

00:19:46.823 --> 00:19:47.583
JULES: I know.

00:19:47.583 --> 00:19:50.023
VIRGINIA: The zip up hoodie with him on the back.

00:19:50.023 --> 00:19:54.423
JULES: I wanted that too, but I got the red long sleeve of him on the front.

00:19:54.423 --> 00:19:56.803
JULES: Yeah, I was like, I'm gonna go for this one.

00:19:56.803 --> 00:19:58.563
JULES: I really wanted that hoodie though, too.

00:19:58.563 --> 00:19:59.723
VIRGINIA: I'm gonna keep my eyes open.

00:19:59.723 --> 00:20:04.823
VIRGINIA: It'll hopefully be there the next time I go, or it'll be at Character Warehouse or something.

00:20:04.823 --> 00:20:21.043
VIRGINIA: And I've already looked on Shop Disney because I was like, if I see it on the website, if it's a time when they're having a sale, because that's the only thing is once you get used to being an AP and having a discount on everything, you're like, I don't want to pay full price.

00:20:21.043 --> 00:20:22.363
VIRGINIA: I want my discount.

00:20:22.363 --> 00:20:23.643
JULES: Exactly.

00:20:24.903 --> 00:20:26.643
VIRGINIA: All right.

00:20:26.643 --> 00:20:34.003
VIRGINIA: So the last day, Thursday, April the third, are you going into a park before you hit the road?

00:20:34.003 --> 00:20:36.363
JULES: Yes, we're gonna end it with Epcot.

00:20:36.883 --> 00:20:38.023
VIRGINIA: Rope dropping?

00:20:38.023 --> 00:20:41.063
JULES: Yes, we'll drive there from the resort, so then we're ready to leave.

00:20:41.063 --> 00:20:42.643
JULES: We can just drive back home.

00:20:42.643 --> 00:20:43.643
VIRGINIA: Okay.

00:20:43.643 --> 00:20:45.763
VIRGINIA: How long do you think you'll be in the parks that day?

00:20:45.763 --> 00:20:51.083
JULES: We'll stay probably till like six or seven o'clock at night and then head home.

00:20:51.083 --> 00:20:53.203
VIRGINIA: And what do you like to do at Epcot?

00:20:53.203 --> 00:20:56.003
VIRGINIA: Are you a hit the attractions?

00:20:56.003 --> 00:20:58.343
VIRGINIA: Are you visit every country?

00:20:58.683 --> 00:21:00.343
VIRGINIA: What do you usually do in Epcot?

00:21:00.343 --> 00:21:05.543
JULES: Well, first, now that there's no virtual queue for Guardians, I guess I'll be going right there first.

00:21:06.023 --> 00:21:07.583
VIRGINIA: Uh-huh.

00:21:07.583 --> 00:21:10.983
JULES: And I'm really going for Flower and Garden Festival.

00:21:10.983 --> 00:21:13.623
JULES: It's one of my favorite festivals to see.

00:21:13.623 --> 00:21:16.963
JULES: So definitely going to hit all the countries and get some pictures.

00:21:16.963 --> 00:21:27.083
VIRGINIA: Yeah, I noticed on your Instagram, you seem to really enjoy photography of each of the parks, just kind of like the scenery type photos.

00:21:27.083 --> 00:21:35.963
VIRGINIA: And so I was going to ask you, are you just taking photos with your phone or do you actually have like a big camera or something like that?

00:21:35.963 --> 00:21:39.023
VIRGINIA: Because I could tell just by looking at your page that you're into photography.

00:21:39.023 --> 00:21:39.943
JULES: Thank you.

00:21:39.943 --> 00:21:42.363
JULES: Yes, I just use my phone.

00:21:42.363 --> 00:21:46.263
JULES: I've been taking pictures since high school and like I was in a photography club.

00:21:46.263 --> 00:21:48.203
JULES: We had like competitions.

00:21:48.203 --> 00:21:51.703
JULES: So I try to like look for like artsy pictures to take.

00:21:51.703 --> 00:21:53.483
VIRGINIA: Well, your hard work is paid off.

00:21:53.483 --> 00:21:55.003
VIRGINIA: I can tell just by looking at your page.

00:21:55.003 --> 00:21:56.323
VIRGINIA: So thank you.

00:21:56.323 --> 00:22:00.583
VIRGINIA: I will very much look forward to seeing the photos you take from this trip.

00:22:01.203 --> 00:22:04.583
VIRGINIA: For Guardians, I want to go back there for just a second.

00:22:04.583 --> 00:22:06.823
VIRGINIA: Are there any songs you have not gotten yet?

00:22:06.823 --> 00:22:09.263
JULES: We've gotten them all officially.

00:22:09.263 --> 00:22:10.023
VIRGINIA: Okay.

00:22:10.123 --> 00:22:13.283
JULES: The last one we needed was Everybody Wants To Rule The World.

00:22:13.283 --> 00:22:15.003
JULES: And we finally got that.

00:22:15.003 --> 00:22:15.543
VIRGINIA: Good.

00:22:15.543 --> 00:22:16.123
VIRGINIA: Good.

00:22:16.123 --> 00:22:19.743
VIRGINIA: Normally when I'm talking to somebody, they have at least one that they haven't gotten yet.

00:22:19.743 --> 00:22:26.483
VIRGINIA: And so I'm always curious so that we can just put energy into the world to help them get their final song.

00:22:26.483 --> 00:22:27.623
JULES: Yes.

00:22:27.623 --> 00:22:32.663
JULES: But every time we've been on it, we've gotten in conga every like the last couple of times.

00:22:32.663 --> 00:22:34.883
JULES: I'm like, I'm ready for something else.

00:22:36.003 --> 00:22:38.083
JULES: I've heard it so many times now.

00:22:38.083 --> 00:22:47.283
VIRGINIA: It's so funny you say that because the episode that came out this week on Monday was me with my son talking about our February trip.

00:22:47.283 --> 00:22:51.103
VIRGINIA: And he was complaining because the first one we got, we wrote it multiple times that trip.

00:22:51.103 --> 00:22:55.343
VIRGINIA: But the first time we wrote for that particular vacation, we got conga.

00:22:55.343 --> 00:22:59.003
VIRGINIA: And he was like, I'd, I'm sick of conga.

00:22:59.003 --> 00:23:00.043
VIRGINIA: And he was talking about it.

00:23:00.043 --> 00:23:06.963
VIRGINIA: And my friend Jeanette texted me and said that Alex owes Gloria Estefan an apology.

00:23:07.023 --> 00:23:09.243
VIRGINIA: I thought that was so funny.

00:23:09.243 --> 00:23:15.343
VIRGINIA: So what are you hoping for if you could cross your fingers and get whichever one you wanted?

00:23:15.343 --> 00:23:16.883
JULES: My favorite's Iran.

00:23:16.883 --> 00:23:20.723
JULES: I just feel like it really goes with the ride the most to me.

00:23:20.723 --> 00:23:22.183
JULES: I mean, I like all the songs.

00:23:22.183 --> 00:23:24.363
JULES: Don't get me wrong, but that's probably my favorite.

00:23:24.363 --> 00:23:25.463
VIRGINIA: Everybody has their favorite.

00:23:25.823 --> 00:23:30.623
VIRGINIA: If you could put a different song on the ride, have you thought about what you would want to hear?

00:23:30.623 --> 00:23:34.263
VIRGINIA: If you could tell the Imagineers, add one more song into the rotation?

00:23:34.263 --> 00:23:34.583
JULES: Yes.

00:23:34.583 --> 00:23:35.843
JULES: It was in the movie, actually.

00:23:35.843 --> 00:23:37.603
JULES: You know the song Cherry Bomb?

00:23:37.603 --> 00:23:38.223
VIRGINIA: No.

00:23:38.223 --> 00:23:43.983
VIRGINIA: I mean, I know the title and I'm sure I'll know it if I hear it, but I can't think what it sounds like.

00:23:43.983 --> 00:23:47.943
JULES: It was in a montage in part of the movie.

00:23:47.983 --> 00:23:54.143
JULES: It's like energetic, so I thought it would go, I thought it'd be more songs that were in the movies.

00:23:54.163 --> 00:23:59.703
JULES: So I always think of the songs that were in the movies, so like that would be cool on the ride.

00:23:59.923 --> 00:24:00.443
VIRGINIA: Okay.

00:24:00.443 --> 00:24:01.263
VIRGINIA: Yeah, that's smart.

00:24:02.463 --> 00:24:08.543
VIRGINIA: I've seen the movies, but I have not seen them enough times to be familiar with all of the songs that are in the movie.

00:24:08.543 --> 00:24:12.763
VIRGINIA: So when my mind thinks about songs, I'm just kind of like open to whatever.

00:24:13.023 --> 00:24:21.963
VIRGINIA: Usually, I always come back to Queen, either Don't Stop Me Now or I don't know, Bohemian Rhapsody, like the fast part.

00:24:23.323 --> 00:24:25.683
VIRGINIA: Not the slow piano part of the beginning, obviously.

00:24:25.683 --> 00:24:28.083
VIRGINIA: But anyway, I think that would be fun.

00:24:28.083 --> 00:24:29.323
VIRGINIA: I love Queen.

00:24:29.323 --> 00:24:29.803
VIRGINIA: All right.

00:24:29.803 --> 00:24:33.803
VIRGINIA: So Flower and Garden, Hitting Up All The Countries.

00:24:33.803 --> 00:24:39.903
VIRGINIA: Do you tend to do any of the festival booths to try the festival food offerings?

00:24:39.963 --> 00:24:41.663
JULES: Yes, that I will do.

00:24:41.663 --> 00:24:43.123
JULES: Because I'm like, it's little.

00:24:43.123 --> 00:24:46.043
JULES: And like, if I don't like it, I have Justin.

00:24:46.263 --> 00:24:46.803
VIRGINIA: Right.

00:24:46.803 --> 00:24:48.623
JULES: Thank you for me.

00:24:48.623 --> 00:24:49.883
VIRGINIA: No big deal.

00:24:49.883 --> 00:24:51.503
JULES: Yeah, like, it's not going to come back.

00:24:51.503 --> 00:24:53.143
JULES: So let me just try it.

00:24:53.143 --> 00:24:54.003
VIRGINIA: All right.

00:24:54.003 --> 00:24:57.803
VIRGINIA: So I think we have all of the information here I need to know about your trip.

00:24:57.803 --> 00:25:03.443
VIRGINIA: And I am very much looking forward to hearing how all of this goes and seeing some of the photos.

00:25:03.443 --> 00:25:06.503
VIRGINIA: And I know the listeners will be excited to see that too.

00:25:06.803 --> 00:25:09.563
VIRGINIA: So have a magical trip.

00:25:09.563 --> 00:25:11.863
VIRGINIA: Drive safely, please.

00:25:11.863 --> 00:25:12.123
JULES: Yes.

00:25:12.123 --> 00:25:13.943
VIRGINIA: There are crazy people out there.

00:25:13.943 --> 00:25:14.203
JULES: I know.

00:25:14.203 --> 00:25:16.043
VIRGINIA: And I will talk to you when you get back.

00:25:16.043 --> 00:25:16.603
JULES: Thank you.

00:25:16.603 --> 00:25:19.123
JULES: Looking forward to it.

00:25:19.123 --> 00:25:21.383
VIRGINIA: Thank you, Jules, for joining me on the show.

00:25:21.383 --> 00:25:25.443
VIRGINIA: The post report is up next, so the fun isn't ending here.
