❤ I love the atmosphere of the MK area. I enjoy the themeing and natural beauty of that area. Thanks for sharing V! So glad you were able to get out and enjoy the sunshine! 🌞
@@Daisy-cj3og Good morning Daisy! 🌼 I’m looking forward to doing it again now that you can walk through the Poly to the Grand Floridian again… it’s one of my all time favorite places for a sunrise walk.
@@ortizmo Lovely pick as usual Ortizmo! I just added it to your playlist and I have been loving playing your list on the headphones while I have my videos playing on the tv!!! 😃
@@hswick100 good morning Heather! 😃 You are so welcome! I love videos like mine playing in the background as well and now I love putting mine on now so I can retrace my favorite walks! Thanks for taking the time to comment, I always appreciate it!
I love when you stopped to film the flowers outside one of the Poly rooms. So pretty and peaceful. In that moment, I visualized all my fam and friends hangin out on that porch/balcony and enjoying a blessed Disney day altogether again. Thanks V!! ❤
@@EricEnquar That is lovely Eric! 🌸 Every time I walk through property I am remembering so many happy memories with my mom and friends and family that are baked into almost every corner. 😍💜
Hiya V! Where you been?! Nothing beats an early morning stroll around a resort 😊! Or two, or three 😉. Guessing it was lovely and cool. The lobby at the Poly was grand! Sunrise at Seven Seas Lagoon is so beautiful 🤩. The view from the monorail and at the water’s edge really captured it. That condo is fugly 👎. They should bring back the luau 😉. My favourite part was the walk between Grand Floridian and the Magic Kingdom 😊! Great shot of the monorail and water taxi at the same time! Nicely done V!
@@mikefischer9327 Hi there Mike! 😃 I have times when I seem to have no energy or will to do much of anything except read and be cozy at home. It used to be much worse during those times but walking on property is what seemed to always get me out of a funk and moving again. I’m lucky that the work I do for my husband is mostly online so I can take a break anywhere and get some work done and long quiet walks became my go-to way to recharge. As soon as I’m out walking I feel better and Sunday morning was no exception… it was gorgeous and good for my soul! 😉 The sun rising over the lake always makes me happy! And the birds along the water… everything is so peaceful and calm. The condo is fugly… you are right there but at least next time I do this walk I can walk all of the way through if I want to. I’ve missed walking from the TTC all of the way to my favorite tree in the far corner of the Contemporary in the Garden Wing. And speaking of that tree I was so happy to catch that monorail boat together… it’s the little things like that I love to catch. A lot of people would just have clips of the “better” moments like that but enjoying all of the quiet steps that brought us there is the whole point for me. 🌸 I’m glad you enjoyed it Mike and I appreciate you always showing up to walk or ride with me! 😃
Good morning looking forward to this Vlog. I have been quiet since I have been out of town. We just did Universal Studios Hollywood and did the VIP experience. It was so worth it. Happy holidays to you and your family.
I love Disney when it is sleeping. So peaceful and magical. It feels as though we are going behind the scenes. Just wondering… how do you get into the Poly so early, if not staying there?
@@dancarson4794 Good morning Dan! 😃 I love the quiet times too, early morning and late night walks are my favorite! I look ahead to when Magic Kingdom is opening early at 7:30 because that means the parking lot and transportation opens at 6:30. It was dark at 6:30 when I parked at the TTC and had already started to get light by the time I walked over to the Poly. My favorite part of staying on property is being able to walk super early or super late. 😂 We just recently stayed at the Swan after the Food and Wine classic one night, it was so much fun but I didn’t film much of the festivities, I was all about the 5:30am walk that morning to watch the sun rise. 😉
@@Jeff-bv1ek I regretted not going all the way to the tree almost immediately and you just confirmed it Jeff! 😉 I’m all about taking time for birds and trees and here I missed the oportunity to get up close to the tallest, best Christmas tree at Disney World! 😂🎄
Such a wonderful resort... Always loved the Poly. Still on the fence about the tower--wish it was themed more to the look and feel of the original Polynesian Resort. But guess that times move on; and apparently Disney is planning to put that DVC presence everywhere. Means little to me--I can't afford the whole thing anyway.
@@danielvandersall6756 Good morning Daniel! 😃 I feel the same on both counts, it may be blah but it’s what we have so I’ll enjoy what I can. Thank you for the emails btw, they lifted me up at just the right times. 😉
@@matthewmiller-y3p If only they would listen to you about the battery operated leaf blowers Matthew! 😉 I’m always up early but I’m sure many others don’t appreciate such an early and obtrusive wake up call!
The concrete there ends immediately and it is only a trail for whatever they drive back there, it’s only woods and I’ll show that side better next time. 😉
Hi V. It's been a while. Thank you for sharing this beautiful stroll. Early morning strolls (video and in person) are my total favorites, and the Poly is always gorgeous. Wishing you blessings and success in the coming new year. Maybe we'll see you in late May.
Hi Bill! Let's hope so, I'd love to run into you! 🙂 I’ll be getting out this week for sure, my little break has given people a chance to catch up on my videos at least. I hope you and your loved ones are having a wonderful holiday season. 🎄💜🎄
Thanks so much for this. I love being able to see the resorts or parks without constant talking.
You’re very welcome Dianne! 🌸 I’m so glad you enjoyed the peaceful walk!
Almost 40 years old and those monorails are still looking great! Also they got rid of the ding dong
@@newenglandproductions7526 I am still fascinated with the monorails but I do miss the ding dongs. 😉
That train whistle at 1:08 and 1:11 is magical.
I think so too Bruce! It’s part of why I love early mornings on the MK resort loop… that sound carries and always makes me happy! 🚂

Pleased to be of service. 👍
I made it public so everyone could enjoy it. 😉
Honored.
Also great to have a list I can check against to ensure no repeat suggestions. 👍👌
I’m a writer and these videos are the best to work to! Thank you so much, they honestly help a ton.

Awesome stream! But I can't believe you teased us with a distant view of the tallest, best Christmas tree at Disney World.😅😂

@@wdwexploreandchill So glad to hear it... About all I can do these days. Not moving around a whole lot.
Wow, you hit the trifecta, noisy gas powered things at all three resorts, way to go Disney!
@@matthewmiller-y3p If only they would listen to you about the battery operated leaf blowers Matthew! 😉 I’m always up early but I’m sure many others don’t appreciate such an early and obtrusive wake up call!
All the noise aside, I forgot to mention it was a really lovely stroll. Will be there for my birthday week, January 26-31. Keep,up,the great work!
Thank you Matthew! That’s an awesome way to celebrate your birthday… I hope it’s the best trip ever! And that you get to sleep in peacefully. 😉
is kona cafe open early.
@@markabston1451 Hi Mark! 😃
Kona Cafe opens at 7:30am but the little snack bar outside of it, Kona Island opens at 6:30. 😉
After the bridge at 1:05:18 there is a path which goes left. Where does that go? Thanks
The concrete there ends immediately and it is only a trail for whatever they drive back there, it’s only woods and I’ll show that side better next time. 😉
When is the next ride coming out? And can you do a fort wilderness but loop so I know how to maneuver fort wilderness when I go?
Hi Landon! 😃 I’ll get a bus ride out soon… I’ve been missing it too! And I’ll be sure to get Fort Wilderness with everyone’s holiday decorations up.😉
