Can we Tell You How to Get to Sesame Place?: https://youtu.be/rJ7qCgBVNVo Sesame Place Vlogs: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLJbtmXqJDYV61Jru0qsP67g3XAwm8Fy0S

In today’s video, we take you to Sesame Place for The Count’s Halloween Spooktacular! The Halloween fun starts as soon as we arrive. The entire area is decorated for the season, and right away we get to see the Neighborhood Street Party Halloween Parade. We were so impressed by this show! There were so many floats and characters, and the music was so much fun! It’s the perfect way to see all of your favorite Sesame Street friends in one place! Next, we spend some time Trick-or-Treating around the park. There were plenty of Trick-or-Treat stations around, and all of the treats were included in the price of admission! We decided the adults needed a little treat too, so we headed over to the Garden Grill that was serving up some delicious beverages! We got to try the Spooky Punch and the Freaky OJ. They also had adult beverages for purchase, and cookie decorating for the kids! Then, it was time for our reservation to Dine with Elmo & Friends! This was a great little character meal, with an all-you-care-to-enjoy buffet, plus physically distant meet and greets with Elmo, Abby Cadabby, and The Count, and a dance party! Afterwards, it was time to take a stab at the Sesame Scarecrow Scavenger Hunt. The goal is to find all 6 scarecrows around the park and count the number of crows! Then, you get to redeem your scavenger hunt finds for a special prize. Finally, it was time to go home. We had a great time at this event, and Sesame Place really went all out for the season! The best part is that all of this is included in your regular day admission, except for the Character Dine-in meal. It’s a great option for those in the Philadelphia area to celebrate Halloween. If you’ve been to The Count’s Halloween Spooktacular, let us know in the comments! Thanks so much for watching, and as always, keep on wishing!

Episode 7: No Spoilers, For Goodness’ Sake

We are back with Episode 7, and boy is it a doozy! To start, (in what we’re apparently still calling the Housekeeping section), we give an update on what we’ve now watched on Disney +, and also share our brief opinions on a movie we saw over the weekend. Up next, Epcot’s 4th annual (almost 40-day-long) Festival of the Arts starts in January, and boasts fun activities, Broadway musicians, and great food. The remainder of this week’s episode starts our December mini-series, where we explore how one might enjoy spending the winter holidays in each park. In this episode, Jenn paints a portrait of the sights and sounds of the Magic Kingdom in wintertime, and we review all the delectable treats the kingdom has to offer.

As always, to all of you; our friends and family, who continue to tune in every week, thank you for your continued support! We appreciate each of you, and are so glad you are giving us a listen!

Episode 6: Thanksgiving Dishes and New Years Wishes

Wow! Episode 6 and counting – good to see all your friendly faces again! Housekeeping for this week brings a Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge topic out of the archives once again, followed by a quick update on what we watched first on Disney Plus! We then spend the proper amount of time introducing and discussing our favorite blogger, and agreeing with her opinions on everything. For the news, Disney announces some interesting and semi-affordable special event dining options to usher in the New Year. Finally, we consider the best places to enjoy a ‘Thanksgiving meal’ at Disney.

As is tradition at this point, a million thank yous to all who listen to our podcast! We are so happy to welcome you into our Disney family, while we share thoughts and laughter over the best topic ever!
