I'm a Canadian gal who loves Disney, eating delicious food, and traveling to new places. I started this channel to share my passion for new adventures and life experiences. No dream is too big, age is just a number, and you only live once. So grab a comfy chair and stay a while. I'm so glad you're here! xo Jen
I got the same Riverside pin :) The Chip and Dale ones are sooooo cute. We ended up buying all the Starbucks cups... I only had the Magic Kingdom one from 2018 previously, and I loved that cup so much, so I set out at the beginning of our trip by saying "we are definitely picking up ALL the mugs" haha. I think we have very similar Character Warehouse taste lol - I also picked up the Disney 100 ears and gargoyles pin. I didn't get the spirit jersey though ;) Ohh, I love the silhouette cut of Pixel <3 Great haul!
i love everything!! the portrait of pixel is so special 😭 we both regretted not getting the plushies we wanted haha, we definitely need to get them on our next trips!
@@taylorstower4316 you’re welcome! I really liked it and would definitely stay again. Especially if it’s for a longer stay. Thanks so much for watching Taylor 🫶🏻
And, it's not just alcohol. That's what people misunderstand. Fresh squeezed orange juice, smoothies from the spa, Powerade, Red Bull, Milkshakes from Johnny Rockets, special blend coffees are included in that
If you drink 8+ drinks per day,(and it could be more once you get into it, I know for a fact) you will break even or come out on the plus side. Example, you pay $700pp for the package. Once the cruise is over and you keep track of how many drinks and the prices, you could easily rack up $900-$1000.
The cup only works at the machine. You can get soda at any bar or other venues in a regular glass. If you get the soda package, it is soda only. Other packages also include the other beverages you mentioned if they have them on the ship.
Going on my first ever cruise with my girlfriend and some coworkers in December of 2025. We're going on icon of the seas. Been back and forth between getting the deluxe drink package or not and after seeing this video and how much I plan to drink (between me and my girlfriend) probably around 7 or 8 per night when it comes to alcohol, im definitely getting this. We're going on a 7 night cruise
BAWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. omg! your eyes at 2am in the morning. You looked exhausted! I'm glad it was a false alarm, but darn that stinks! Awesome video Jen, I look forward to seeing the haul you got!
OMG your breakfast at Topolinos looked delicious. I'd definitely love to check out that character dining. Oh noooo - fire alarm 😴😴 seriously the worst, we had it go off one time at a hotel in Niagara Falls and we had to go down SO many flights of stairs 😬 Great vlog, Jen!
off days on disney trips are honestly my favorite!! so glad you had such a nice breakfast, loved the summer house cookies (i think they’re better than gideon’s!), and topped it off with dinner at chicken guy which is also soooo good lol. thanks for bringing us along, i’m loving these vlogs! 🥰
If is goo 🤣🤣 Sorry about the shirt mishap! Ughhh Florida heat is not for the faint of heart... when we went last summer the "real feel" was 120° most days 😅 I looove the parade at Magic Kingdom 🤩
I love that feeling you get the first time you walk into a Disney park on your vacation! You perfectly captured it here :)) Journey of water is so pretty! Ooh so exciting riding frozen for the first time. Love that ride! I still have not been into club cool lol. Love Soarin’. Mmmmm… Les Halles is my favourite! I love the Poulet en Pistou 🤤 omg the tiny duck ! Ooh I commented too soon lol - thanks for the shoutout! Glad you enjoyed it :) Mmm homecomin’ …. I’ve only been there for brunch, but I loved it! I had the fried chicken and donuts that time - so good! Riverside was so pretty! We also only stayed there for one night - the last night of our last vacation. Definitely want to stay there again!
Finally catching up and watching this! I think Jessica also checked us in at Riverside. Loved that whole check in process! Ooh your room is so cute - love that Tiana curtain! Alex’s sandwich looks great, but it doesn’t sound great in the review 😅 I don’t think I’ve ever even heard of city works - prob cause I don’t drink beer … but the atmosphere looks great! I have a weighted Pluto and Pua… they’re cuddly when you’re sitting on the couch for a movie day 😊 The pizza looked great! I haven’t tried salt and straw yet, but that donut ice cream sounded good! Great video!
These drink packages are a complete joke. I was looking at "Cheers" on Carnival, it's $2,158 plus an 18% gratuity for a couple on an 18 day cruise. This was also at an alleged 10% discount. Lol.
Thanks for all these tips. This video was particularly helpful. I agree that it's better not to buy things you don't need. Putting money aside for a Disney trip is definitely worthwhile.
aww i love how excited the kids were to spend the day/ride rides with you 😭 also alex’s face at the end of dinosaur is so relatable hahaha. i’m an ice cream sandwich girl all the way! 💗
That was an awesome day! Your first time at Cheesecake Factory!? Isn't it yummy!! That hotel room you switched to is HUGE - it must have been an accessible room or something?? So much space!
I know right?! We will definitely be back to Cheesecake Factory. Not sure if it was accessible but wouldn't mind staying there again. Thanks for watching Laura & Ryan
my dad and i got rained out of Animal Kingdom. we were on Everest when it started to pour. we had to hang out in the gift shop for about 10 minutes waiting for it to stop. we were soaked. it didn’t led up and we made it a early day since we didn’t want to spend the rest of the day in the rain.
Oh no! Florida weather can be so unpredictable. I've definitely been there a few times where I've got caught in the rain too. I always try to make the best of it. Would rather be in Disney when it rains then anywhere else!
That was an awesome day! The Frozen ride is my favourite but I also really love Living with the Land! The resort tour was great - we'd definitely love to stay there someday 😊
so fun! what a nice slow-paced day! i love homecomin’s chicken sandwich, glad you enjoyed the restaurant too! riverside is so nice and peaceful, i need to stay there one day. also the spaceship earth pics were iconic haha 💗
i spend alot of time in Epcot when i was in Disney World back in 2019. we ate at the 9 Dragons restaurant in China a couple times and ate in Japan a couple times.
lol, I love how all Toronto condo dwellers need to find creative ways to store their off season and sentimental clothes. We don’t have a locker, so ours are all in bins that fit under our bed 😂 Love all of our outfits, super cute! The chip and dale shirt turned out so good! I’m so excited to hear what you think of some of the restaurants you chose! We absolutely love Topolino’s … and we loved our brunch at Homecomin’! We did the Space 220 lounge on our last trip and went into it with the same thoughts as you, but we were quite impressed with the food quality! I love that toy story loungefly backpack! Is that a recent one they had for sale? Can’t wait to see the rest of the videos in the series!
The struggle is real.... If we didn't have a locker, I don't know what we would do. The backpack was gifted to me a few years ago and I think it was from the Disney store before they closed. Thanks for watching Cate ❤
Your outfits are so cute!! 100% have to be comfortable, especially in Florida when it's a thousand degrees 🫠 Hope you had a great trip! Can't wait for more vlogs 😊
I just found your channel and watched this travel day Vlog. You have some great editing skills with the montage at the start and I enjoyed your excitement balanced by the realities of travel delays and slow buses! The people behind you in the Quick Service at Riverside had me laughing out loud as they realised they were in the background while you gave your review of those dry chicken strips!
