Oh my gosh!!! I can't believe you said you were going to see Mary!!! My husband and I love her! We went there in April and she made me the best coffee drink. So friendly and enthusiastic, she really made our morning. Small world! 😅
I’m not surprised that y’all love Mary too, Drea! 😂 Mom and I have used to do early mornings at the Belle Vue Lounge and that’s where we met her. Even though I miss the morning service there I always pop in to see her at the blah coffee shop, she is a complete sweetheart.
What a great, relaxing stroll. Your microphone works great, the only place it was off a little was the first cast member at the Boardwalk snack stand. He was a little hard to hear, but I think that was because he spoke softly and was farther away from the mic. The rest of the time everything was good.
Good morning Richard! 😃 I’m so glad you enjoyed it too because I had a great time finally getting a good long walk in! I’m watching it over now and I think you are right about the mic which is a relief to fially have that squared away finally. I hope you and Patricia are haing a great Friday!
OMG Linda and I are sitting here watching this together and I said the last time V filmed here there were a bunch of rabbits in the grass. Then, about five seconds later you said the same thing. SPOOKY!
Figure we both came out ahead on this video. You got your Christmas stuff and I saw the setting sun over Crescent Lake 😊. The work that goes into these displays is remarkable. The lobbies at Yacht and Beach Club are so attractive ☺️ (the others aren’t too shabby either). And when it all lights up, lovely. As you said, a sight you’ll never get tired of! PS You’re having low seventies and here by me, it’s above 100 😰.
I’m so glad the sunset made up for all of that Christmas stuff Mike! 😂🎄 I agree about Yacht and Beach Club lobbies for sure, Yacht Club especially for me and I’ve spent days practically just going back and forth between the two. And it is going to be warming up here a little the next few days but it will be nowhere near 100 thank goodness! 🫠 Thank you for watching this “redo” walk from last week… I think I finally found the right mic at least! 😃
Hi! What a wonderful video to watch. I took 3 sessions to watch it all, and enjoyed every one! I have a special affinity for this area due to: 1. Close to my favorite park Epcot 2. The Dolphin Hotel was our "Disney Home" (we've stayed there 13 times, and the Swan once) 3. I love walking around Crescent Lake any time of the day We were in the Dolphin in mid-December, 2013. We were there for 3 nights and 2 days, at a time that used to be one of the "off periods" in the hotels and parks. When I walked in, the lobby was full - the Major League Baseball winter meeting was going on. Got to see personalities from MLB Network and ESPN both set up in opposite corners of the lobby, doing a live show. Very nice (I'm a baseball fan). They had the lobby fixed up nice, but I think what you showed was much nicer (especially since the lobby and hotel were renovated in 2016-17). I enjoy your filming and casual narration - it makes us feel like we are there. Thank you for such an enjoyable video! God Bless...
Hi Ken, It’s great to see you as always! 😃 1. I love EPCOT too although Animal Kingdom is my fave. I’m at Sanaa over at Kidani Village and am looking forward a long day of vlogging!! 2. 13! Well actually 14! 😮 That is awesome and such a wonderful place to stay, I love all of the quiet corners and pretty spaces plus you are walking distance to soooo much!!! 3. Me too! Although the sunsets are spectacular I love the rainy days and midnight walks just as much… it is gorgeous no matter what the day or weather! It’s funny that mid-December was an off period… those days are gone, aye? It’s always fun when you just happen to be in the right place at the right time and that happens all the time in the Bubble… I love it! And finally… thank you for that. I’m getting more comfortable talking to y’all but I never want it to be all ME, ME, Me or to take focus off of what is around us and the whole reason I’m there. 💜
Gosh , I'm so behind LOL. Staying on the Boardwalk (Dolphin) next Friday so I'm glad you showed this so I know to for sure check out the other resorts for decorations. I've stayed at the Beach Club, Boarkwalk, Dolphon and Swan. Still need Yacht Club lol Slowly reaching my goal to stay at every resort ! This was a great stroll !!
@@wdwexploreandchill I will be going to MVMCP on Thursday Dec. 7th . I can't believe how the price increased so much for the parties, though. Love this time of year !!
I forgot to tell you I will be at the campgrounds next Wednesday and Thursday. I thought I was doing a solo and not sure if you remember I had mentioned if you wanted to ride along and vlog from the golf cart. My son and daughter-in-law to be surprise me and got off work. They have to drop their dogs off and Lake Mary and they live out by Cocoa. Not sure what time they will get there I’m not sure what your plans were for Wednesday night but if they don’t come too early you’re more than welcome to ride along with me and go looping and vlog for an hour or so lol If not I will let you know next time I do a legit solo lol 🥴 usually it’s my husband my son and daughter-in-law to be but sometimes I do go by myself like I thought I was this time
That sounds like fun Pam! Shoot me an email and I’ll give you my number. I’ve got Jollywood with mom on Monday night then it is all about how much I can get into for the rest of the week. 😉
I remember running late for a reservation and huffing it around there like a maniac. 😂 Now I only go that way when I’m willing to take time for the scenic route. 😉
Would it be possible for you to do Wilderness Lodge, Animal Kingdom Lodge, and Kidani Village Christmas Decorations. Those were our favorite hotels to stay at. The Epcot resorts were our second favorite places to stay.
Absolutely Wilson! I will try my best to get to those next week because I’m looking forward to seeing those Christmas trees myself. Thank you so much for watching and for also for the awesome suggestion.
I would like to add that this video brought back many lovely memories. We have stayed at all the original 5 resorts many times over about a 20 year span and have enjoyed reliving our memories with your tour.
@@wilsonmiller1713 That is wonderful to hear, thank you! I love sharing these long walks because I try my best to make it feel as if you are right there with me. 😉
Boardwalk is a very good deal, especially if you rent DVC from a site like Dave's. And it's location can't be beat--you can easily walk to two parks. I will add, however, that for someone like me who needs to use a mobility scooter it's not the best. Not impossible to get around, but a lot of detours and long drives.
Hi there Daniel! 😃 I agree, but I still want to stay at either Yacht or Beach Club one summer day just for Stormalong Bay! But any of the resorts there seem like winners to me, walking along the water sunrise and sunset… well and even in the middle of the night is just so gorgeous! And having them all bookended by HS and EPCOT plus having Skyliner access makes it unlike any of the other resort groupings in my eyes.
good morning, looking forward to the long format vlog thank you for sharing.
Good morning Clark!
Thank you, it felt great and seemed like forever since I had been a good long walk! 😃

and it sounds good
Woo hoo! I have my set-up! 😃
But now I want that Dji Pocket 3! 😉😂
😂 I can't wait to have a totally free day at the parks to just walk it and film it someday. that would be so much fun
@@wdwexploreandchill
It really is my favorite way to spend my time, hands down. 😉
Beautiful.
Thank you! Cheers!😃
OMG Linda and I are sitting here watching this together and I said the last time V filmed here there were a bunch of rabbits in the grass. Then, about five seconds later you said the same thing. SPOOKY!
Ha! I was looking for them because they seem to love that area.
I hope you guys are having a great weekend!
@@wdwexploreandchill we are having a great weekend because we're watching WDW Explore and Chill. How's yours?
@@buffalobuck15 Awww. 😉💜
We are home relaxing with all of the fur babies… happy that all is calm on the home front.

Yay! Thanks Mike, I’ve already ordered another one for a back up. 😃
This was lovely! ❤

We made the mistake of taking that wrong walkway to the Dolphin one May. You learn and hope to remember.

Which resort is @1:02:05? I liked the Pool
That is the Dolphin resort and the pool area is amazing!
