    Absolutely agree about Harmonious, that show was incredible. We didn't even see it front and center, and it still moved our hearts. That said, I have never seen the lagoon without the barges, but I can imagine it without them, and I really don't understand how people have been making such a fuss about how they "ruin" the view 🙄 I will miss it dearly.

    I enjoyed this Vlog it was extra fun watching with my husband because he hasn’t watched your vlogs before! When you were hungry at Epcot he said “she will just eat the first food she sees”. Then you see corn and say “I’m buying this because I’m so hungry and it’s the first food I have seen”! Lol.
    We both willed you to sing the “corn Song” but it didn’t happen. Please learn the song for next time you feature corn I feel it’s essential! 😂

    I am so glad I'm not the only one scared of butterflies! Sure, their wings are gorgeous but their FACES AND BODIES. NOPE.
    I also gotta take some perverse joy in the lack of photopass photographers at the characters after people constantly moaning about the lack in Paris "BeCauSE In FloRiDa". I gotta take my joys where I can xD
    THAT MEEKO PLATE. Ohmygod. $50 + tax is insane but daaaaaamnnnnnn I love it!

    I feel as constructive feedback I need to encourage you to research Orange Bird More, appreciate him and then buy all the Orange Bird Merch like I do. He is not a Disney character he is a Walt Disney World Character! Think of him like Betty Rose and Jimmy Ocean who are unique to DLP! Iconic yet not Disney characters!

  • @musingsabouteverythingandn4048

    My take on Garden Grill is that it’s popular for 3 reasons, the menu is standard American comfort food and almost everyone will find something they like, characters, and living with the land is a cult classic Disney ride. I think people enjoy that you can see into it from garden grill. I think people love living with the land for the same reasons they love the people mover, it’s quiet and there’s air conditioning and sometimes you just need a few minutes of dark, quiet, cold when you’re running around the parks all day. Side note, I recommend the behind the seeds tour, it’s a fun behind the scenes tour of the land greenhouse.

    harmonious is actually leaving because the barges are a maintenance nightmare 😬 due to the mixed response of enchantment and the technical issues with harmonious, they’ve decided to retire both shows. i personally wish both enchantment and harmonious could’ve been “fixed” and were allowed to stay :(

    Hi! I'm going to Disneyworld for the first time this year. I've been watching your vlogs again. I saw on your insta that you are in world again. And I have a question. I noticed you didn't get a magicband here with your stay. But friends of mine went just a few months ago and they did get the simple magic band. So did you get one this time?
    I would like just the simple magic band. Can you buy them 2nd hand? Or will they not work?
    Have a nice holiday!✨

    It’s quite funny seeing the contrast between you in Disneyland Paris vs Disney world Sam! Because you seem by comparison, so much more critical of Disneyworld. Whereas, I’m the opposite - I went to Disneyworld as a child, (from age 6). I’ve only been to Disneyland Paris at 17 and 40. So, for me Disney Paris just does not compare at all. I think the overall atmosphere and the the standard of service etc is really lacking at Disneyland paris, it’s beautiful for sure, but disappointing in many ways and so expensive. For me Disneyworld is worth the expense. I’m thinking some of it is what you experience as a child though. For example, I actually LOVED the land and garden grill as a kid! Epcot was my favourite. It was the whole atmosphere of it, I can’t explain it. I loved the storm, the water and the smells in the land which are so nostalgic and the attraction of the garden grill was that you turn into the ride. So, that’s quite exciting as a kid. For me, there are rides that are long gone that I loved the most - the original figment ride, horizons and probably most of all, maelstrom - which is now frozen. I would still love to go back to disneyland Paris because it’s so much closer to home, but it’s hard to justify the cost for me. ESP as it’s not easy to get to from the north in the UK!

    • @Sam4G0d
      @Sam4G0d  Рік тому +1

      I think it’s cuz I never went to Disney World as a child, and from my understanding, most of what people love about Epcot is the nostalgic feel of it.
      For sometime stepping into Epcot in 2023, it really doesn’t have much charm or beauty (outside the Flower & Garden festival and World Showcase) imo.
      Disneyland Paris is my home park, so I’m used to it - which is probably why it seems like I’m not as critical of it.
      In reality though, I’m just as critical when it comes to things I feel are poor in DLP. Overall though, I do think most rides and lands look better in DLP.
      But Disney World also has a lot of good qualities Disneyland Paris lacks, and I’ve made sure to point those out too. From live entertainment on Main Street, to the snack variety and easy security, I’ve pointed all those out as being better throughout the vlogs 😃

      @@Sam4G0d Yes - I agree that must be it. It was the nostalgic feeling from childhood that makes it so magical for me. But I'm so sad to hear that you feel that Epcot doesn't have much charm and beauty now 😭😭😭... I'm going in September, (first time since 2019). And I have to say, I am a little worried that it won't feel the same!! I really hope not, because we also became DVC members in 2021. We haven't yet been since then. Anyway, love all your vlogs Sam and totally not a dig to you by the way, I totally appreciate all points of view and find it interesting how we all experience things differently. In a way, I really wish I had been to DLP as a child - because then I'd have some of that same connection. I still love some of the UK theme parks for example, even though they're really not comparable. Because I went to them since I was a small child and.there are so many memories involved. xx
