That was so lovely when you were chatting about taking the photos at the tree in 2020, n never realised it would be 2 years before you were able to return. When you said“ but we’re happy” , it really hit home.. you’ve managed to hang on to the important things in life. Thank you for you vlogs.
Great advice about the lines - I've been hearing this all the time, (the wait times being deceptive). Look forward to hearing how long the other lines are.
We may pay for Genie+ when we go for a week in late June purely bc of the crowd surge I’m expecting at that time of year. Undercover Tourist is an authorized ticket seller and they always have great deals on multi day passes with park hopping and or Genie+ now.
Always love HS, TOT my wife's favourite ride. Even when we went to Batu never went on ROR as it wasn't open. Its good to see the difference across standby and lightening lanes , seeing Genie working. I don't think for me I'd pay for Genie + at all. Those gate price tickets were ridiculously expensive 😳
Love how much you love Rise Of The Resistance. Surprised they let you film on Star Tours though - that's not allowed at DLP. Thanks for the honest review of Genie etc. Hope you're still having a fantastic time.
The food might have been great but that price is expensive when it comes to dining out for two people. It's not like you were eating steaks, you had apps and salads. Chuy's is amazing! Been to the one in Chicago, and I know quite a few people who go there and recommend it in their TH-cam vlogs as well. Should definitely try it next time.
I always enjoy HS but I really couldn't be bothered with being on my phone constantly so I would rather just bimble along and just enjoy the atmosphere. I have to say I'm not a huge fan of olive garden but I do love carraba's. Also I think some salads are very deceiving,they can be so calorific and fattening that you'd be better off with a McDonald's! Great vlog guys...love your shirt Leigh 💙💙 xx
My Husband and I have recently stumbled on your channel and have watched lots of your videos! We absolutely adore you both! You've provided us a lot of laughs in the past few days! Nick is very similar to my Husband and shares that dry Yorkshire humour being a Yorkshire lad himself. We are going to Orlando in September and can't wait! That you for sharing and for all of the tips and tricks along the way x
You missed a great meal by not going to Chuoys- it was the best place I went to last time I was in Florida. Great food and very reasonably priced with unlimited nachos and toppings for free!
That’s really interesting about genie. I feel like they’ve ruined it by introducing that and bumping up the queue times. I loved the old fast pass system and didn’t need to be on my phone all day for that. Are you moving accommodation soon guys?
Disney parks have stayed much busier than usual for being in January because Disney is offering all kinds of park and room discounts for Florida residence guests.
Carabbas is much, much better than Olive Garden - it’s a chain restaurant, but it’s an excellent one. That Minnie and Mickey ride did look very imaginative, almost like they put you in the middle of a cartoon.
I was very disappointed in Genie and Genie plus. I’m not one to do the parks from open to close yet that is the schedule that’s is given. We had a ride at 1 pm and the next one was 6 pm. We ignored the app
Anywhere from 15-22% typically. Average is probably more 18-20% but depends on your experience. I usually tip high as server might be having a bad day and they rely on tips as they make less hourly.
Restaurants, 20% of the total of the bill is the norm. Refills and bread or breadsticks,etc placed on your table are free, well,its included in the food costs but considered free as they are not charged on the bill. Taxi's are your discretion. If he is nice and helps u with your bags then do about 10% to 15% of the cost of the ride. So if the trip was $20.00USD tip $2.00 to $3.00USD is good. Hope this helps and enjoy your stay here in Orlando, Florida USA! WELCOME!
Oh and by the way i used the Genie for the first time and they charged my card twice. So I went to customer service and they refunded my card twice . So I didn’t have to pay.
@@TheLodgeGuys that's because people see no alternative and a lot don't believe Disney can do any wrong look at how they have stripped back any perk to staying on property yet the hotels are still full or put annual passes up by 50% but still sold out
I don't rate this new genie+ seems more hassle than it was with fasspasses, this is why the queue is soo long as people refuse to pay, hopefully the scrape this mad idea & go back, to fasspasses it works out alot of money if you have a large family $15 per person per ride 🙄🙄 Also you go for a holiday not to be on your phones consistly, I feel your always on your phone, no no no disney needs to get rid of this genie , it spoils a holiday on phone all the time 😡😡😡

Love it when you eat nearby where we stay. It’s so good you share all the information on the genie etc. it’ll really help for when we go xx
Love the picture of Nick at the end of your intro video!! A great smile and he looks so happy. (Because he is with Leigh😀)
Great advice about the lines - I've been hearing this all the time, (the wait times being deceptive). Look forward to hearing how long the other lines are.
Another awesome blog . Love watching you guys - giving decent advice on Disney . Can t wait for the next blog
Thank you ❤️
Looked an awesome day so many cool rides there now.Great to see chris briefly too top man.Have a great week 🙂👍
Thank you. Chris is a lovely guy 👍
My wife and I found your channel and have binged all weekend :) so happy to find you both
Welcome aboard and thank you for watching. Its appreciated
If your still in Orlando, find an ALDI grocery store . Much cheaper produce and groceries
We may pay for Genie+ when we go for a week in late June purely bc of the crowd surge I’m expecting at that time of year. Undercover Tourist is an authorized ticket seller and they always have great deals on multi day passes with park hopping and or Genie+ now.
Please do a vlog at the olive garden love the chicken Alfredo there. 😋 glad you both are having a fabulous hoiladay.

You should try Chuys, the mexican food is amazing with huge portions. We go several times a trip in Florida x
Nice one Guys . "STAY SAFE "
Went to Disney in cal never in florida but ur vlogs make me want to go
We loved disneyland in California
Just been down to check our holiday home at Thornwick bay
Hope it was OK 👍
I never rope drop HS, it's always a great time at night and you can almost walk on most attractions in the last two hours.
Yes we have found that late on in the evening
Hey I was so so happy to meet you guys and I’m in the video. How is Chris so shy and he has his own TH-cam channel? Lol I thought I was shy!
Lovely to meet you and your family ❤️❤️
Beef O Brady is a great place to eat, good food and prices, it's a sports bar but do amazing salads and chicken
Thanks for the tip
Love how much you love Rise Of The Resistance. Surprised they let you film on Star Tours though - that's not allowed at DLP.
Thanks for the honest review of Genie etc.
Hope you're still having a fantastic time.
We purchased genie on a future vlog so look out for that one

ROTR is so scary! One of the best rides at HS in my opinion!
One of the best rides in all parks we think
Petrol $3.21 per gallon. Was $2.67 per gallon when I was last there a few years ago.
We always take a pack lunch to the parks😂
Don't blame you. Disney food pricing is ridiculous

You had me at ‘unlimited’ nachos !
Thanks for the tip. Might give it a go
I love you guys you are almost as good as Tim Tracker
.... Almost 👀😂❤️

Yes. We really loved that ride. ❤️

Sorry to hear that. If you don't want to spend all day on your phone then it's not great. We bought is and did a video on it... Coming soon 👌❤️
Oh God. I’m getting confused regarding lightening lanes etc. I’m getting worried I won’t know what to do.🥺
Try kissimmee old town at night
I mobile order everything in all parks unless it's a sit down...Mobile order is where it's at
Yeah it can be easier we have found
I know tipping is expected in America, but what’s the tipping percentage now when you eat out .x
Anywhere from 15-22% typically. Average is probably more 18-20% but depends on your experience. I usually tip high as server might be having a bad day and they rely on tips as they make less hourly.
Hi guys, another great vlog, just a quick question, how much would you recommend tipping in restaurants & taxi's etc.
Restaurants is easy as they usually work it out for you at the bottom of the receipt
Restaurants, 20% of the total of the bill is the norm.
Refills and bread or breadsticks,etc placed on your table are free, well,its included in the food costs but considered free as they are not charged on the bill.
Taxi's are your discretion. If he is nice and helps u with your bags then do about 10% to 15% of the cost of the ride. So if the trip was $20.00USD tip $2.00 to $3.00USD is good. Hope this helps and enjoy your stay here in Orlando, Florida USA! WELCOME!
You can stack LL reservations, it's all about going later in the day... Just sayin"
👍
I won't mention Disney Genie in the title cos we we didn't really use it....
'DISNEY GENIE TELLS US WHERE TO GO...'
😂
I know 🤣 but once I'd edited the video it just seemed to make sense 🤣
@@TheLodgeGuys keep the vlogs coming! Glad I stumbled across the channel.
Oh and by the way i used the Genie for the first time and they charged my card twice. So I went to customer service and they refunded my card twice . So I didn’t have to pay.
Glad you got your money refunded
Amazing vlog 🤩🤩🤩
Thank you ❤️
Omg, Leigh did I see coriander / cilantro on your lunch? Did you eat it, lol
😱😱😱 I can't remember eating any 😂
That queue is not an 80 minute. It's more like a 30
👍
How long did it take you to ride rise of the resistance?
not sure 40 ish mins maybe it was a while ago, later that night the wait times were 25 mins I think we posted this on our Orlando group
Try Chick Fil A! It’s our favourite fast food, just in the 1903 lounge at Manchester, we will be having Chick Fil A this evening!!
We tried one the other day. The milkshake was amazing
People need to wake up and realize Genie Plus is a garbage cash grab from Disney! But so many are blinded by the so called ‘Disney Magic!’
I'm sorry but genie plus and lightning lanes have been designed for idiots with more money than sense, wait times would be halved without them
Seems like lots of people are buying it though
@@TheLodgeGuys that's because people see no alternative and a lot don't believe Disney can do any wrong look at how they have stripped back any perk to staying on property yet the hotels are still full or put annual passes up by 50% but still sold out
I don't rate this new genie+ seems more hassle than it was with fasspasses, this is why the queue is soo long as people refuse to pay, hopefully the scrape this mad idea & go back, to fasspasses it works out alot of money if you have a large family $15 per person per ride 🙄🙄
Also you go for a holiday not to be on your phones consistly, I feel your always on your phone, no no no disney needs to get rid of this genie , it spoils a holiday on phone all the time 😡😡😡
We agree. But it looks like there is a lot of people buying it as we see lots in the lightning lanes.
