 Thanks guys I love these. I find it odd though as I've only been in DlP during the spring and summer so all the spring fling stuff you've only just seen now I'm used to but next my next trip which is planned for March 17 is not in the spring season so I don't really know what to expect with rain and shorter days. (Our last trip last May hours were 10-23.30).
By the way I love the trivia stuff though I have spent a bit of time in the arcades in the past as I enjoy the peace in them. Would love to see more trivia.

I don't think I'm ever going to get into Orbitron after watching that! You may have saved my dignity.

I took a guided tour so bring on the nerdy details. :)

Haha yeah! We'd never been on it either. It's not the roomiest of rides!
I took that tour as well. it's really good right? Have you taken the Studios one?

Thanks for watching.

I went on orbitron when the kids were a little smaller (so was I  haha) I had a sore knee so couldn't get back out when the ride had finished haha my hubby is 6ft 3 so went in with my youngest & his knees where up to his chest! There is no way I could go in now, going have to send my kids in it together without us  :)

I'm stoked you like the trivia stuff. I really enjoy doing that kind of stuff, i just wanted to make it interesting and not too controlled you know?
Yeah we had only really been during the Christmas season so all the other stuff was new to us. I love Christmas there but it does get crazy cold. It's much nicer to be able to be outside and be comfortable.

Thank you so much for watching.

oh dear!! Yeah they really didn't size that ride with adult humans in mind! It's funny though and i'm glad we went on it. Might give it a miss next time though.

Thank you for watching.

I haven't taken the Studios tour. I'd definitely consider it for another trip. Have you done that one too?

Loved the Disneyland Park tour. I was the only person on the tour that day. I took the tour while my friend went off to do rides I don't like. I did feel like a total VIP and spent the rest of the trip trying to share my new nerdy knowledge! Really enjoyed hearing about the little details and seeing places like Dapper Dan's and Walt's that I wasn't going to experience otherwise.

We ended up doing the Disneyland Tour twice!! The first year we went and then we went the next year with a load of friends and did it with them! I really liked it. We did the Studio tour then as well but i don't remember a lot of it. Apparently there's a separate tour of TOT but it's only in French  :'( There isn't exactly a lot to see in the Studios and no history or anything so i can't imagine there's a million things to talk about, but getting an Exit Pass to Crush is probably worth the time and money on it's own!

I could spend hours in Walts looking around but it's always awkward because people are eating!

I'll post the last part of our trip up today!

Thanks for watching everyone. We'll be doing some bits and pieces between now and September when we go to Florida so if you like to see those and the WDW vlogs later in the year, it would be awesome if you'd subscribe? We really appreciate it and all the positive comments we've received.

TTFN!

For some reason YouTube won't let me comment tonight.  :(
Thanks for the blog and thanks Ethan cos I was thinking I couldn't come up and say hello to you lovely people if I were to run into you in the parks.

Oh really? That's weird. Hopefully YouTube was being weird for a minute.
You're welcome. We'd love to meet people in the parks?! That would be great.

Hey Fairymom
Thank you so much. I'm so glad you enjoyed it.
We're not 100% sure yet, it all depends if BTM reopens in December or January (as the rumours are saying).
We'll probably travel on Boxing day or the day after i should imagine depending on whats happening. If we do please come say hi!! We'll be telling everyone on Instagram and Twitter if / when we do.

I can't wait for WDW!! 93 days and counting!

Me too! I've heard conflicting things from rumour sites and CMs at the park. Fingers crossed!
