Dopey Shenanigans! A Walt Disney World Marathon Weekend TR (Completed-videos added)

[rteetz]

As I said before your pictures are stunning and yes more animal floats
Wow what a great price for a Dooney and Bourke that would make the trip to the Outlets worth it.
I had to download the Lyft app in November so we could try the Minnie Vans
My DD uses Uber all the time in St Augustine since she doesn't have a car and loves it. Price is half what a cab would be.
I've never used Uber either but just used Lyft a couple of weeks ago when I moved my DD back to college
I was very pleased prices were great, clean cars and friendly drivers.

We all downloaded Lyft to use Minnie Vans as well but never ended up using it. Maybe I will try it out in March. Definitely worth going to the outlets if you are looking for a deal on Dooneys!

That's what I'm thinking
How long did it take you? Is there only one outlets and can you tell me the name
Since we stayed at BC we tried the Minnie Vans once for the novelty I'm not sure we'll use them again for 20.00 a ride

There are two Disney outlets. It was about a 20 minute drive. We went to the Orlando Premium Outlets owned by Simon on Vineland. I am not exactly sure where the other one is.

Ryan your pictures at AK are gorgeous! Not going to the parks on marathon weekend was probably good for our feet and legs but I really missed our park time! I so want to see Pandora and ride FoP. Maybe we will get back down there for W&D this year.....

Thanks! I totally get no park time during Dopey but that would be so hard for me. Maybe I will see you there for W&D...

We had the front desk at BLT activate it for us, and we liked the service. However, they would only activate it for a single phone number on our reservation. That was a bit frustrating, as part of the point was to allow different parts of our group to leave at different times. So we had to trade phones a few times so that the person who wanted to leave first had the Minnie Van enabled app

That sucks. I do want to try it out on a future trip.

Love your RoL pictures and seeing for the first time this visit, I absolutely loved it (even though I was freezing during it!). While, yes, it's low-key, I thought it was just beautiful to watch. So happy they've brought a night time show to AK.

Congrats on surviving your first Taxi and Uber experience. And, awesome score on the purse for your mom!

Thanks! I am glad you liked it. I love AK as a full day/nighttime park now.

ROL is my new favorite. It’s not in your face flashy, it’s a bit understated and just beautiful.

So wait...I can get another dooney with my ap discount at the outlets?!? Uh oh. Thanks for the heads up, I didn’t know they sold them there.

Great report so far!

Illuminations remains my favorite but I do really like RoL.

Yep. They only had two Food and Wine style Dooneys when I was there.

I really enjoyed RoL in November. My daughter didn’t like it as much. I loved the floating animals also. I am very glad I experienced the show! Good score on the Dooney bag, where is the outlet store? We may have to check it out.

It’s in Orlando on Vineland.

RoL looks so pretty! I’m hope to see it soon.

I totally get what you mean about surviving your first Uber and taxi ride. We also don’t use Uber/taxis around here so it almost makes me...nervous (Uber especially)? I felt so accomplished and relieved after the first Uber/taxi ride!

Congrats to your mom on the Dooney deal!

Yeah I think I’d still be nervous about using an Uber by myself but with a group it’s fine.

I wouldn't be worried! Uber is awesome. I know you can't legally drink yet - but sometimes its nice to not have to worry about it.

 

[Keels]

Yay! TR!! You have inspired me to work on mine!!

As for the performers in the stands for RoL ... it’s recent. I didn’t see them in October/November - but I saw them all four times I’ve seen the show since I’ve been here from Christmas on ...

Yeah I definitely see the advantages to it.
