Hey everyone, it's Jacqueline and Adam for Pixie Dust PhD.
In this last video we talked about the things that we never do in Walt Disney
World, so for this one we're gonna turn the mood up a little bit and talk about
the things that we always do at Walt Disney World.
So stay tuned to hear our lists, and let us know what you think and what you always do.
So we've each prepared five things that we always do when we go to Walt Disney
World, and these aren't in really any particular order but we'll
save the last one for the one we feel most strongly about.
So first for me number five is regardless of if I'm staying on or
off property I always bring a MagicBand, and that is essentially because I always
buy Memory Maker. So we're constantly
hunting down PhotoPass opportunities and getting those through the tap of our
MagicBand to remember all of the memories.
And for me one of my favorite things to do at Walt Disney World is whenever I'm
on a ride like jungle cruise or where you're really interacting with the cast
members is just laugh at their jokes and and really
just eat--no matter how corny they are-- you know really just play it up, because
the more fun they have the more fun you'll have as well.
Number four for me is that I always
rope drop Magic Kingdom at least once on the trip. I don't necessarily rope
drop every park, but there's something about Magic Kingdom
bright and early in the morning where the crowds are really low that just it
is so magical, and that's something that I
really cherish. So even though I hate waking up
super early, I think it's definitely worth it. So I always rope drop Magic
Kingdom at least once. So while waking up early once is tough,
something that's really easy to do that I always do is go to Disney Springs.
So no matter if it's in the morning, mid-day afternoon,
at least once during my trip if I'm there for more than just one day to like
only go to the Magic Kingdom um definitely stopping by Disney Springs
just people watch, shop, eat a lot of great
stuff there. So much good food. Oh yeah that's for sure. Yeah.
Number three for me is that I always
make it a point to meet characters, but in particular I always meet Mickey and I
always meet Merida. So Mickey is important to me because for
some reason I feel like all of Walt Disney World is
Mickey's; like I go and I give my thanks to Mickey for this wonderful experience.
And if it's possible I really like to talk to Mickey in the Magic Kingdom
because I really feel like the Magic Kingdom is his. And it's so fun!
The last trip we did actually we landed, we went to the hotel, and then we went
straight to Magic Kingdom and met Mickey, and I said
"the first thing I did on vacation is I came and I wanted to say hi to you!"
And then Merida I just love. I think she's absolutely the best and her
interactions are always so great and so fun. And speaking of mickey I
love looking for hidden Mickeys, or just the small details in the park.
So whether you're you know in a line for an attraction
or you're just walking around on property hotel
there's hidden Mickeys everywhere, and it's just such a fun game to see all the
little caring details the Imagineers put into the park.
Number two for me is that I always end up at a lounge or two, or
you know several, every day honestly. So I love Nomad Lounge in the Animal Kingdom.
I think that's the perfect spot to relax. They have some
really good food, excellent drinks, and it's just such a nice
escape from the chaos of the park. And I also really love Tambu Lounge at the
Polynesian. That's where you can get that Lapu Lapu
drink in the pineapple, and you can get some food from 'Ohan.a
It's really tasty. So yeah I love to take sort of a break from the chaos of the
parks and hang out in lounges. It's more casual and faster than actual
table service dining, but the quality is definitely there. Yeah I love it how
they just like oh yeah we'll just give you this from the menu.
Yeah. Even if it's not there at the bar. Yeah so definitely you can also ask when
you go to a lounge what the full menu is, sometimes even if it's not presented to
you you'll be able to get food from whatever restaurant it's attached to
anyway. If you're hungry just ask, right? Yeah, for sure.
So for me I always love the thrill ride, so
you know I'm making sure I'm doing Space Mountain, Thunder Mountain, the coasters.
Making that a priority. So you know if I'm in a park,
you know, just love going on the higher thrill rides by Disney standards.
Yeah we normally do Expedition Everest several times in a day.
Single rider line, you know, it's it's great. Okay and my number one thing that
I always have to do when we go to Walt
Disney World is see Happily Ever After in the Magic Kingdom with a view of the
castle projections. So there are a lot of great places you
can view the fireworks from around Magic Kingdom and also
in the resorts near that area, but I really think the projections on the
castle are so beautiful and they really amp up the
feelings for me. And so if you haven't experienced
Happily Ever After in person in front of the castle I highly suggest
you do it. I've watched a lot of YouTube videos of the recording and it's great,
and it's beautiful, but it doesn't give me the same feelings--
the same emotions--as when I'm physically there watching it happen live.
So that's something I always prioritize. Yeah make sure you get
a good view of that, because that is uh definitely my number
one thing that I always do, I at least see a nighttime show um in a park that
I'm at. At least one time on my trip I would
like to see a nighttime show, and when you see it in person it really
makes it special no matter you know what park you're at.
Just make sure that you know you're telling the people around you to get the
camera out of your face if other people are
busy recording. So, but it's definitely worth it, and it's also my
favorite thing to do in Disney parks. So those are our top five favorite
things to do while we're in Disney World. These are things that we
always do no matter how many times we go back, these are things I think we will
continue to always do. If you enjoyed this video please give it
