Meet Jennifer and Randal Ferguson, Disney Vacation Club (DVC) owners and YouTube stars on their Disney and DVC-inspired channel, The Magic in the Music. Jennifer and Randall share their Disney backstory and what inspired them to create their YouTube channel. They own DVC points at the Polynesian Villas & Bungalows, Animal Kingdom Villas, and Riviera Resort.  They’ve been to Disneyland, Walt Disney World, Disneyland Paris, and Shanghai Disneyland Park and dream of getting to Tokyo and Hong Kong in the future.
