It's spooky time at the Disneyland Resort, and my daughter and I experienced Oogie Boogie Bash at Disney California Adventure Park. This after-hours event was held from 6-9 pm, but you could enter the park at 3 pm. This is such a fun way to experience Halloween time. Many people dressed up. You take home a tremendous amount of candy. There is a parade, villains, and low wait times for rides. It is a fun way to spend time at a Disney park.

On this episode, I discuss our upcoming cruise on Royal Caribbean's Icon of the Seas, which is the largest cruise ship in the world. This ship can hold almost 10,000 guests and crew members. We are flying into Miami and spending a couple of days in the Florida Keys before heading on a Western Caribbean sailing. We have port stops in Cozumel, Costa Maya, Roatan, and Perfect Day at CocoCay. We are excited and a little apprehensive to sail on such a large ship, so tune into our trip report when we return for my thoughts on Icon of the Seas.

On this episode, my guest Lindsay planned a last-minute trip to Universal Orlando Resort to check out the newest theme park, EPIC Universe. She traveled with her 13-year-old son and stayed one night at the new Helios Grand Hotel, which has a dedicated entrance into EPIC Universe. She then switched over to Cabana Bay. She spent 2 days exploring EPIC Universe, one day at Islands of Adventure and Universal Studios using the Express Pass to ride everything they wanted to ride, and checked out Volcano Bay. They then pivoted to Walt Disney World, where they spent an entire day hopping to all four parks. This is a jam-packed trip full of great tips and ideas for those planning on visiting Universal in the near future.
