      I absolutely adore seeing Kitra's reaction to being back in Aulani, and to seeing the characters. My goal is to go back within the next couple of years, and during the Holidays for all the Xmas merchandise

    I don’t know if I already said this, but I’ll say it again… I feel like over the past year your camerawork has been exceptional. It’s not just great shots, but there’s playfulness and character coming through that is like the sprinkles on the dole whip. Thank you for sharing your adventures with us, and for more to come!

    Thank you for being respectful to the monk seal. So many people don’t know to not approach them and it’s so sad. You guys are always so attuned to the culture and bring and abundance of Aloha. Love that you guys keep coming back. Finally splurged on a staycation for the first time in February and your videos have been one of the best Aulani series to watch.

    I was scrolling through comments and I saw you guys replying , and I thought wow how nice that they engage the audience… but then I notice you responded to every comment! And with the amount of engagement you get in videos is no easy feat even if you have a team, and I think that’s so great! Really keeps the spirit of social media and connecting to your audience! Obsessed with this channel even more!

    @18:37 the leis I gifted you were Kukui nut leis..
    Kukui nuts were a important part of the Hawaiian culture. They were used for candles as seen throughout the resort and also used for cold sores in the mouth.
    I hope you liked the candy also.. Have a great day!

    Welcome to the DVC family!! You guys deserve it. As a Disney fan, it feels AMAZING knowing you will be staying at all these beautifully themed hotels for years to come. Get ready to be obsessed with always looking at the booking website, deciding and changing every stay (i want to stay at ALL the resorts EVERY trip!) and getting the add on-itis bug. To a wonderful new year 🥂

The cabins at Fort Wilderness this summer, the new Poly tower winter and not to mention Disney in general with Fantasy Springs in Tokyo Disney and THEN the Disney Treasure cruise. It will be the best year yet. Ahhhhhh!! We are all so blessed!! Hope you guys get to do it all. “All of it” - Han

    We just started re-watching your previous Aulani/Oahu adventures as we prepare for our first trip there this summer. Last night we watched the infamous chili pepper water episode and even though I've seen it before, it didn't stop me from belly laughing so hard that I had tears running down my face! I really enjoyed how you edited this episode with focusing on just Aulani - I can't wait to see what is next! I think it makes perfect sense for you guys to own DVC at Aulani especially being located on the west coast. We joined DVC in 2018 and our only regret is not buying more points! We are excited to see all of the adventures you experienced during your trip! (Side note: What camera did you use for filming? The quality is out of this world!)

    • @OrdinaryAdventures
      @OrdinaryAdventures  Рік тому

      We regret not getting DVC sooner. When Aulani opened 11 years ago points were only like $120 each 😯 we film everything with either the Sony a7s3 or the Sony Zv-e1. They both have the same exact sensor, ones just smaller and simpler. This video we used a new 16-35mm lens that we don’t normally use
