I was just saying to to Nina (wife) that this is like being on holiday, but not needing to leave my armchair. Love it, and it's cheap for us! 1 Hour, 30 mins & 19 seconds in to this vlog, you walk past 'Yard House' restaurant - You must try it sometime, it's fantastic - Try the Tacos, they are 'amazing' (As Laura would say) ;) Great stuff as always, and lots of helpful info - Thanks :)
Sonesta es suites Orlando, right across the road from icon park, is a really nice hotel. When my sister died in 2007, the hotel planted a palm tree 🌴 for her and got a plaque etc with her name made which is still there to this day. We visit the hotel/my sister’s tree every time we are over.
7AM is the start time for all the current lightning lane selections, all the morning stuff will usually be gone in the first 15 to 30 minutes so you need to be on it. Hopefully the new lightning lane multi pass system will make it a bit less stressful and perhaps even let you have a lay in on your holiday XD. Only downside is if your a resort guest but from the UK, you cant actually use the 7 day in advance for your whole trip benefit until you are in the US.
Another great vlog tonight. Love animal kingdom. Thank you so much for taking the time to send a cameo to me it was great made my day. Enjoy the rest of your holiday ❤
We love the lucky leprechaun on I drive. Alex and the guys are extremely welcoming. Great for sports, music requests, karaoke and live music and dance.
Just watching your vlog. On our very first time to Disney last May on our first day we was chosen as family of the day restaurantasaurous we got to sit in the little caravan had a picture taken and free shakes ❤
I am a sneaker collector and yes the sneaker store you went in was a resale store, you cannot go into a Nike store and buy any of those shoes, they will buy them from dead stock or other collectors will sell them to the store! Every pair of shoes will be a different price depending if they are rare or more common! $250usd is a normal price for any of those shoes but the Jordan 4’s would have been more for sure!
Great vlog hope the both of yous had a great time over there I bought my first pair of Oakley sunglasses over in lanzarote and I was so impressed with the quality of the sunglasses I went out and bought a second pair of the Oakley sunglasses the day before I went home so I have choice of which one I want to wear for my next holiday
Great vlog..I’m staying on international drive right near that rooftop bar..I’ll be going in there..my favourite place on international drive is miller ale house..great food and drinks at a reasonable price..
The more I see, the more I think I wouldn't bother with Disney. The views from that bar were amazing, but 12 pounds/14 euros a pint is crazy. Florida is going to price itself out the market for us mere mortals. Great vlog.
so looking at those Nike shoes, in England when they get released are £150 each plus postage, but those that you have seen you cant really get them till they do new releases of that colour, so basically you either have to pay the price of getting them now, or wait to see if they do more releases of that particular colour
Love the vlogs.. we are doing a split stay of a week in a Disney resort and 12 days in a villa. Just wanted to share our deal for a Disney property stay as I know it’s often too expensive.. we’ve got 7 nights in port Orleans riverside including free quick service dining plan for 2 adults and 2 children at £289 a night.. I thought that was pretty good. Looking forward to getting resort perks and early access then getting away for a chill in the villa. Enjoying getting some inspiration too for our non Disney part of the stay!
Re the universal pass holder prices , even if you just visited once a year , the saving on parking alone over 14 days makes it worthwhile, plus discounts on food etc 👍🏻
I reckon a better rooftop bar would be at the top of the Aventura Hotel at Universal. We really like the look of it and the views look great - we'll be trying it out in a couple of weeks time 😊
Stayed at rosen plaza on I drive in may. Lovely hotel. Saltgrass was lovely but the portions were huge, longhorns was good too. Chili's on I drive was quite dirty safly
Love your vlogs! As you know so much about Disneyworld I have a question for you. Do you know if you can upgrade the 14 day uk ticket to an annual pass? Thank you and looking forward to the rest of this trip vlogs!
Funny, when we met 2 months ago we both were saying how we didn’t have a Florida trips booked, now you’re in one and we have a 60 day count down, we can’t wait
I’m off to Sonesta es suites ( opposite icon park ) in 19 days, first time in Florida so nervous 🤪 but it’s just me and my daughter, all excited obviously 👀 but absolutely love your videos, helpful and good to see around before we go 😀 I used to know a owner of a bar in the reef , had far to many juicee cocktails , if you know you know 😬 👀
I stopped there a few years ago and it was really good. Fantastic location for getting around and enjoying everything Intl Drive has to offer - and that's a lot ! Have a great time 😊
Jordan 1s are absolutely amazing worth every penny, they vary in price due to there edition mostly Nike are sometimes cheaper but you’d struggle to get a rare ‘decent’ pair from Nike tho so will always be re sale site mostly for a the rare pairs
My Mrs is always trying to get me to go on the slingshot, if your both there next may, I’ll meet use there and her and Laura can go on it Loving these vlogs but makes me miss Orlando so much, also Aventura (universal hotel) has a roof top bar, great views and you can go even if your not staying there
Just a note on Disney annual passes... You can't upgrade the UK 14 day ticket anymore. Apparently we get too good a deal that their system no longer allows upgrades on those tickets.
@@TheKnightStrider We asked 5+ cast members in various locations and all said the same. I think it's the 14 day ticket specifically so other tickets may be ok to upgrade.
I’m my experience AK is much quieter a couple of hours before park close. You can get on everything much quicker and sometimes the parking booths are closed so you don’t need to pay to park and you can park at the front.
Yeah Andrew the Nike shoes are resale and new That’s why you’ll see some for $150 $300 $500 and sometimes even up to $1000 just depends on demand and rarity of them, I love them all so I would pay even know it’s so expensive for shoes lol
If you’ve got the time this trip / next trip and haven’t already tried the rooftop bar at Universal’s Aventura hotel, you should give it a go. We stayed there on our last trip and thought the bar was a really nice touch. Especially beautiful around sunset and at night. You could park for free at City walk with your UOAP and get the complimentary shuttle from there to Aventura.
1:30:52 We went a few years ago and found Ripley's believe it or not to be interesting, personally i think it's worth a visit even if it's just for extra content.
Re the wait times , I honestly believe they deliberately keep them high , we joined the FOP queue when we last went in 2020 the wait time posted was 110 minutes , it only took 58 mins ( we timed it ) , so always worth joining IF you want to do the ride in my opinion 👍🏻
You can get lovely Samsonite luggage in places like Marshall’s and Burlingtons also TJ Maxx, I bought a suitcase last autumn to come back to the U.K. with as I’d bought so much in Orlando on my holiday 😂 but it was worth it as my new suitcase is beautiful and half the price of Samsonite in the U.K.
With regards to the nike jordans they are more expensive than buying from Nike as these shops are resellers . The resellers buy them direct from Nike and other places the day they are released by Nike. Some are extremely rare. Jordan 1 and 4 are the most desirable at the moment because they were originally released in the 80's and 90's and are being re-released so are becoming collectable
So Andrew when we went to Disney in 2015 we could book fast pass 3 rides a day week in advance and then daily as we’ve used them but this was free do you pay every time now?
We have been to Ripleys believe it or not a couple of times. It is good to loose a couple of hours . Very similar to Wonderworks which is also good . A little overpriced if you aske me but worth a look.
Universal hotels with the free transport and early admission is way cheaper then any Villa, car and parking costs, u add the universal Anuual pass just for parking, a two week ticket withuniversal hotels is way cheaper, not even close in price compared
A question for Laura please, my daughters want to get their school prom dresses when we are next in Orlando, does the premium outlets have anywhere suitable?
I was just saying to to Nina (wife) that this is like being on holiday, but not needing to leave my armchair.

Better than watching the political dross on TV , thanks Andrew and Laura you are life savers 👍🏻
Chili's food always looks amazing. Love the shops 😅
Sonesta es suites Orlando, right across the road from icon park, is a really nice hotel. When my sister died in 2007, the hotel planted a palm tree 🌴 for her and got a plaque etc with her name made which is still there to this day. We visit the hotel/my sister’s tree every time we are over.
Love the wave from the monorail driver in the intro... If only he knew how famous he may become 🤣🤣
your great vlogs are such an escape from my life in the UK X
"Physics keeps you in!" Love it.
7AM is the start time for all the current lightning lane selections, all the morning stuff will usually be gone in the first 15 to 30 minutes so you need to be on it.

Another great vlog tonight. Love animal kingdom. Thank you so much for taking the time to send a cameo to me it was great made my day. Enjoy the rest of your holiday ❤

Can I ask? What is a Cameo? I keep hearing about it but not actually sure what it is. x
Laura, you walked past a watch shop! Thought you wanted a holiday watch x
Love the lounge fly bag & tie dye tshirt 😍

Fair enough!

Can’t wait for another great vlog ! Thank you 👏
Laura looks fabulous in Lululemon outfit
laura loves Lululemon, good quality
We love Bahamas Breeze on International Drive which is a Caribbean themed restaurant.
4k quality content, love the length of them and the full day vlogs. Fill the gaps between our Orlando trips
That's the plan!
Looks amazing,glad you're having sun a fun time 😊😊
Love the vlogs.. we are doing a split stay of a week in a Disney resort and 12 days in a villa.

If you’re there in September again, I’ll go on the slingshot with Laura 🤣
Thanks for the Great video !!
I reckon a better rooftop bar would be at the top of the Aventura Hotel at Universal. We really like the look of it and the views look great - we'll be trying it out in a couple of weeks time 😊
Try the Escape room Laura we did it last trip and we had so much fun😊
Awesome thank you

Love your vlogs! As you know so much about Disneyworld I have a question for you. Do you know if you can upgrade the 14 day uk ticket to an annual pass? Thank you and looking forward to the rest of this trip vlogs!
Yes you can at the main guest services at the parks
As somebody who loves Jordan’s the price point isn’t too bad ironically wouldn’t be buying them all time but maybe a splurge once lol
Loving the vlogs guys, we would love to know what villas you would highly recommend?
Curious to know what Laura uses in her hair to keep it so straight and not frizzy. She always looks so good! 🫶🏻
Thank you!
Laura you wanted a watch, did you forget that.😊
Loved the bird show went to one in Tenerife 8 years ago was fantastic
Did the helicopter 3 weeks ago fantastic views of epic and universal 👍
Funny, when we met 2 months ago we both were saying how we didn’t have a Florida trips booked, now you’re in one and we have a 60 day count down, we can’t wait
Have a great time 😊
Olive garden and miller's ale house every trip for us
Thanks for the info
Everybody now knows what to get Andrew and Garvey to do next lol boinggggg
It’s lovely of Andrew buying you lounge fly bag
I’m off to Sonesta es suites ( opposite icon park ) in 19 days, first time in Florida so nervous 🤪 but it’s just me and my daughter, all excited obviously 👀 but absolutely love your videos, helpful and good to see around before we go 😀 I used to know a owner of a bar in the reef , had far to many juicee cocktails , if you know you know 😬 👀

That roof top bar used to be Walgreens back in the day
Jordan 1s are absolutely amazing worth every penny, they vary in price due to there edition mostly Nike are sometimes cheaper but you’d struggle to get a rare ‘decent’ pair from Nike tho so will always be re sale site mostly for a the rare pairs
Looking forward to Jackie updates! Hope she’s keeping well 😂❤
I hope so too! 😂
Hey Andrew great vlog as usual,can I ask where you get the shirts , I'm in UK but can't find them on the columbia store,thanks lee
My Mrs is always trying to get me to go on the slingshot, if your both there next may, I’ll meet use there and her and Laura can go on it
Loving these vlogs but makes me miss Orlando so much, also Aventura (universal hotel) has a roof top bar, great views and you can go even if your not staying there
Food wise Salt grass is great always eat there and Longhorns across the road 🥰
Just a note on Disney annual passes...
You can't upgrade the UK 14 day ticket anymore. Apparently we get too good a deal that their system no longer allows upgrades on those tickets.
Thanks, i heard it was down to what cast member you got as some people have managed it this year
@@TheKnightStrider We asked 5+ cast members in various locations and all said the same. I think it's the 14 day ticket specifically so other tickets may be ok to upgrade.
I’m my experience AK is much quieter a couple of hours before park close.
You can get on everything much quicker and sometimes the parking booths are closed so you don’t need to pay to park and you can park at the front.
Chilis is my go to when I’m on the road for work and I have five mins
Let's go. Looking forward to this vlog❤. I love shopping 😊
Yeah Andrew the Nike shoes are resale and new That’s why you’ll see some for $150 $300 $500 and sometimes even up to $1000 just depends on demand and rarity of them, I love them all so I would pay even know it’s so expensive for shoes lol
If you are after some bargains at the outlets head towards Tampa, there are a lot less tourists over there and the prices are so much better.
quite expensive when all added up for merch x
Enjoy all July 4 th brings you tommorow 😃👍🇺🇲 you both look super happy .great to see.
If you’ve got the time this trip / next trip and haven’t already tried the rooftop bar at Universal’s Aventura hotel, you should give it a go.

Can’t believe we we are on day two and we haven’t had a morning coffee at celebration 😅

Black and white woody for me 🤞 he's still there in July! X
Stayed sonesta suites. Perfect location and chilled pool area for after the parks.

Hi Andrew when will you be back in Tenerife ? My brother has just arrived and he would like to visit buddies if it’s open 😃
Love the vlog just wondered if you do scooters next time could you do a budget hotel in the area and show how long transport is if not driving please.
Great idea!
Buy Laura pair of Jimmy Choos. I think she deserves it ❤
Hi Andrew Laura great video life savers watching your video in bed sick of the politics🤣🤣
What is the villa resort called mate looks amazing ?
So Andrew when we went to Disney in 2015 we could book fast pass 3 rides a day week in advance and then daily as we’ve used them but this was free do you pay every time now?
Andrew have you read that with the new passes you can't advance book if your an international guest you need to be in the U.S
We have been to Ripleys believe it or not a couple of times. It is good to loose a couple of hours . Very similar to Wonderworks which is also good . A little overpriced if you aske me but worth a look.
Fogo de chao restaurant is excellent
Used to be $5 to upgrade to a seasonal pass before COVID 😬
490 dollars 35 dollars per day x 14 days park parking
Very expensive
Do you get a returnere of tax When you shop in Florida?
Nope
Love that back pack n top Laura, would deffo get some scotchguard on ya bag... keep it pristine 👍
Universal hotels with the free transport and early admission is way cheaper then any Villa, car and parking costs, u add the universal Anuual pass just for parking, a two week ticket withuniversal hotels is way cheaper, not even close in price compared
It's a little deer... well yes, the exchange rate isnt great.
❤❤❤❤❤
A question for Laura please, my daughters want to get their school prom dresses when we are next in Orlando, does the premium outlets have anywhere suitable?
They have a few shops that sell dresses 😊
You have to be in the US to purchase the fast passes, so no good to UK visitors
