Grim Grinning Guys: Disney World (WDW) & Other Travel Planning

Ryan is back in the graveyard this week to complete his RTR with limited GGG interruption.  Will Ryan be denied entry to any attractions?  You know it!  He does handle it better than Matt would have.  We sincerely thank Ryan for joining us on these 2 episodes.  If you would like to be on for a Recent Trip Rundown, let is know by email, Twitter, Facebook or instagram.  [email protected]

In this milestone bonus episode we discuss some of the newish changes at AK to see if we believe them to be booms or busts.  You'll never guess our thoughts on UP! A Great Bird Adventure.  We hope you'll enjoy and don't be afraid to interact with us on Twitter, Facebook or Instagram.

Hello, happy haunts!  In today's show Ryan from Ohio stumbles into the graveyard to tell us about his trip to Walt Disney World just a few weeks ago.  He and his family of 9 enjoyed a week at the Boardwalk DVC villas and a splendid time at the "most magical place on earth."  Listen to Part I today as he shares with us the struggles of getting to WDW, fun days at Epcot and Magic Kingdom, and a "break day" halfway through the trip.  You'll feel like you're there!

Be sure to come back next Monday for the exciting conclusion!  And as always, hurry ba-aaack!

Get your decoder ring ready.  It's back after nearly 80 episodes.  The "sip" is as ludicrous as the last time.  This time we take our time and discuss the rumors that are not really rumors to anyone.  Thanks for listening.  Please continue to share and let us know what you want to hear next.

Here it is: the gripping conclusion to Matt's most recent trip rundown!  The first three days were great--but how will it end?  Listen in to hear the recap of Day 4 (Hollywood Studios), Day 5 (more Magic Kingdom), and the "infamous" Day 6 (with some hiccups at Animal Kingdom).  Which days were the most productive?  What meals stood out?  How did Disney correct what was wrong with extra MAGIC hours?  Stream or download to find out!

It's time for another Recent-Trip-Rundown, a favorite segment of our listeners!  Matt just returned from his family's trip to "the World," and it was a fun-filled week with the Jenkins family (a family on their first trip to WDW).  Today he'll "run down" the first half of his trip, sharing thoughts on his arrival day (Day 1), Epcot (Day 2), and Magic Kingdom (Day 3).  How did everything go?  What did the "first-timers" think of it all?  How many FastPasses did they use?  What were the dining highlights?  You'll have to listen to find out! And be sure to come back Thursday as he winds up another trip in Part II!

News flash: it rains quite a bit in Orlando, FL.  When you're at WDW, there's a good chance you're going to run into some rain showers, and when that happens what should you do?  Where should you go?  In today's show we try to help you come up with some ideas for making the most out of a rainy day at the "most magical place on earth."  We go through each park, the resorts, and yes, even Disney Springs, to offer places to go when the water starts to pour.  We hope you enjoy and benefit from our friendly discussion!

What do YOU do when the weather turns foul at Walt Disney World?  Let us know!

Welcome back, foolish mortals.  It's time for another installment of LLL.  This time we look at Main Street, USA to see what we like, love and loathe.  Which GGG channels their inner Derek?  Small hint, it's not Derek.  Join in on our discussion.  What do you like, love and loathe about Main Street?  Let us know on social media and have a great weekend.

This week we are discussing some upcoming trips we have planned.  We also take a few minutes to check our social media for thoughts from listeners.  Send us your questions if you have an upcoming trip or let us know if you would want to be on the show for an RTR. 

Something new we have is an Amazon Affiliate store.  If you visit www.grimgrinningguys.podbean.com the link is on the left side of the page.  There is no cost to you and Prime benefits are not effected.

Hello, happy haunts!  We hope your week is off to a great start, and we hope we can help make it a little better with today's podcast.  How often do you find Walt Disney World overlapping into your "real world" life?  What lessons have you learned from WDW that help you when traveling elsewhere?  What makes you appreciate the customer service you receive in the happiest place on earth?  In today's episode, Matt and Craig discuss their recent trip to the Northeast and explain ways in which Disney planning helped them (or hurt them) along the way.  It's a unique episode for sure, but one we think you'll enjoy!  Have a great week!

Does WDW planning ever help you in your life?  Let us know!
