  • We're back in Orlando, and in this video we give a brief glimpse of our room at the Ritz-Carlton Orlando before a full tour of a newly-renovated room at the Waldorf Astoria Orlando. Then we make a quick little stop at Magic Kingdom before dinner at Jiko The Cooking Place.

    Mike, I would take your broken hard drive to a computer repair shop. They should be able to get all your lost footage with little effort.

    Mike, a good computer repair shop might be able to retrieve the information from the drive. It's probably still there -- you just can't access it. If you haven't already tried, take it to a repair shop. This isn't the first time they've seen something like this. They may well be able to restore your footage. Best of luck with it! Love the video as always. Hugs to all of you! ❤

    Sending virtual hugs. So sorry about your external drive. Hopefully you can try and get it repaired. I absolutely love the updates to the Waldorf, they are stunning. We always stay on Disney property so we never get around to the other hotels. I've been trying to get my family to over to The Animal Kingdom Lodge again to try out both Jiko's and Boma. Hopefully our next trip we will make it there. I hope you have a wonderful trip and I look forward to more videos from you guys.

    😂 I don't know if that was all the "takes" of Caleb getting on the hammock or Not, but I need more. 🤣😂 A computer repair shop should be able to help with your hard drive situation. Animal Kingdom Lodge despite only having the 🚍 as a Disney transportation option is still one of our favorites. Can't beat waking up to meandering 🦒 and 🦓 outside your balcony. Such a gorgeous hotel. Sorry your meal wasn't the best this time. It's usually very good. Hope your trip was magical. We love going there during the holidays.

    Oh Mike, so sorry about that. I hear you. I use external device to save our picture as well and then something happened (my young child did something) but we lost all our pictures maybe 10 years worth, so I know exactly how you feel. Since then, I just have SD card for each year. Santa will give me SD Card in my stockings. Hope you are able to retrieve all those memories. Big Hug !

    I didn't check all the comments to see if someone else warned you, but I hope you saved the hard drive - it almost certainly is saveable (especially if it's a solid state drive). You probably just need a new housing for it. Any forensic repair shop can definitely save your data off it and transfer it to a new drive. I actually like your system - I've been hoarding our raw foortage since our first trip in 2004 and even though I love the edited versions, the raw stuff has so many great moments from when the kids were little. Love your vlogs and hope you can get the data back.

  • @TheASTrader
    @TheASTrader 8 місяців тому +2

    Fret not, Mike. It is likely all recoverable data on the hard drive. Many services available that can do this. I would definitely switch to an external SSD for your data going forward though (no moving parts to break).

    When I moved into my new build, I used command strips for everything on the walls because I didn’t want to put holes in the beautiful new drywall. What I learned, is that they have what I have dubbed the “5 year self destruct mode” because once I hit the 5 year mark in my house, one by one the frames and art on my walls fell. It was always in the middle of the night because of course it was. And the damage to my baseboards was far more than simple nail holes would have done to my walls. Never again.

    You guys are making me jealous to be there in October, also OUR favorite time to go! Our first trip as a couple was May 2016, but after that, we only went Octobers of 2018, 2019, 2021, and 2022. So we're bummed to miss this year, but we needed to cut back.
    Jiko had been our favorite restaurant after our visits there in 2018 and 2019 (it was still closed in 2021). But sadly, when we went back in 2022, post-pandemic it didn't have the magic flavors it had beforehand. The bread was still delicious, and my fish was pretty good - but my husband had the short ribs (which I had ordered back on our first time in 2018 and they had been amazing), and the flavor was definitely off. I noticed that the menu post-pandemic is a lot smaller and they got rid of a few of our favorites, but I was sad to see our favorite Disney restaurant slip down in the rankings a significant amount during our 2022 trip. I guess we should have ordered the lamb! (I do love their wine though!) Glad to see you guys are still getting to the good places and I can't believe how big Caleb got! Be well gents!
