    I did not watch this live but just watched all 3 hours. I grow orchids when I don’t do Disney. And spent the whole 3 hours watering and feeding orchids. Thank you for keeping me entertained and interested for 3 hours. It made tending to my orchids less tedious.

    I watched Ordinary Adventures go on a 3 day cruise from Los Angeles to Catalina Island on the Royal Caribbean Navigator (?), it looked so fun. I am my mother's caregiver and I also work from home which is a blessing, so I am unable to go anywhere. I really appreciate you taking all of us to Disneyland and California Adventure with you Traver. 😀😀😀

    Sorry I couldn't make it to the live, hard for me to watch anything live with little kids! But I watched this over the course of a couple of nights.
    I'm sure there were other things I wanted to comment on from the beginning of the video but I can't remember anymore haha! So I will just say a few things..
    I think the best way to do Disney/theme parks with a large group is to only plan a few things to do all together. Like plan to do lunch together and then an attraction or 2 after. Then everyone can do their own thing all the other times. Since you're a Disney planner guy, I'd probably just let the rest of the fam know what you plan to do with your little family (like rope drop and which attraction) so if anyone wants to join they can but no one feels obligated or frustrated when you guys cant catch up, esp if everyone wants to prioritize different things.
    I am also introverted and my husband is extroverted. And I always said the same thing as well - I couldn't be with an introvert cuz it's just awkward! On our first date, he talked probably 90% of the time lol! Def need the extrovert to bring me out.. and also after getting to know someone I'll talk a lot more! But depending on my mood, the environment or whatever.. I find that if someone else is more introverted than me, I'll be more of the extrovert and try to get them to talk more! Maybe that'll be my role if we run into you in the parks lol!
    Also, had no idea FreshBaked was even more introverted than you! So funny how so many introverts are so great on camera! I know some actors are like that too!
    Thanks for sharing more parts of your lives with us!

    Hi guys, just wanted to say that I absolutely love your channel. Me and my family will visit California in August. We‘re from Germany and this is my biggest dream to come true. It‘s because of you that we bought combined Genie+ tickets for Disneyland and now even have a rope drop strategy 🙈. I have been to Walt Disney World and of course to Disneyland Paris in the past but now I‘m super excited to my first time ever in California. Can‘t wait. Would love to meet you guys in the park. Maybe I will be a lucky Padawan. 😉

    Hi guys. We are DVC members with our home resort AKL - Kidani. We have 160 points. This enables us to go to Disney every 2 years using 2 years' worth of points. We get 2 weeks stay. This suits us well as we come from the UK. This year, we are splitting our stays by first going to WDW and then, for the first time, going to DL!! Super excited. Really hope we will see you guys at the parks! 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼

    • @SoCalDisneyDad
      @SoCalDisneyDad  Před měsícem

      That sounds about right. We were quoted for 100 points, so we would need 300 points for our usual 10 day vacation. Thus the borrowing from 3 different years worth of points.

And it was cheaper than buying all those tickets plus we’re going to get the benefits of the discounts. This is the only way the pass would be beneficial for us because we only go to Disney World maybe once a year❤❤

      Our more basic "date night" involves Indian food and a movie. But we'll do all sorts of things if we have the time for it, like little getaways up to Solvang for some amazing Danish food.
      At Disneyland, we often celebrate with some pricier meals like Storytellers Cafe, or by visiting our favorite restaurants (Amy's is Cafe Orleans, mine might be the new Din Tai Fung. That's going to be my birthday request this year). Lamplight is great and would be a good one to get reservations for.

    I have a question: we are planning a Disney trip for 2025 and we’re leaning towards coming in the summer. The last two years I keep hearing how pleasant the crowds have been and my theory is with magic keys blocked that it’s making summertime pretty nice to go. Would you agree with this and would you recommend going like end of June beginning of July? We’d love to go June 28 because it’s our son’s birthday and we’d love to go for Fourth of July (and yes I’m sure that day would be crowded). If not those dates when would you recommend to go in the summer?

I’d suggest figuring out how you’re handling transportation (rental car? Uber?) and then finding a hotel that fits whichever you choose.
      For example, if you’re doing a rental car and are more mobile. You may opt for a central location so you don’t have to change hotels. But if you’re Ubering, you might pick something closer to one park if you’ll be spending a few days so you don’t have a longer ride each way multiple times.

      All I mentioned was that I had heard about it, but that I didn't know enough details to intelligently talk about it so wanted to avoid the topic so I didn't do it injustice.
      However, on a conjecture note, I don't believe Disney will let the workers strike. They'll reach an agreement fast before it comes to that. The threat of a strike is just a pressure move.
      This isn't like the writer's strike that just delayed production for a few months. This is a theme park where people have planned for months to attend and this may be their once in a lifetime trip. Disney will come under MAJOR fire from guests if the parks close over it. It would be mega bad PR, so I don't believe Disney will let that happen.

    0:03 yesterday during the live broadcast, I posted a suggestion for a future video, you and Amy could have a fun competition, create a list of ten rides and see who can finish quicker, you’d probably need to start with different rides, I have other suggestions for videos, I am not sure how to send or receive messages via CZcams because I am not tech savvy

    • @SoCalDisneyDad
      @SoCalDisneyDad  Před měsícem

      That is a fun idea. Though to be fair it would need to be the same 10 rides, but just let us tackle the order on our own without any sort of pre-planning. If the rides were different, it would be hard to make sure they were of equal length. For instance, it's a small world or Pirates of the Caribbean are huge time commitments compared to a ride like Snow White or Pinocchio.
      It would also give us an opportunity to split off with one kid each and give them some 1-on-1 time which they might really appreciate.

    • @CEmobile-s6k
      @CEmobile-s6k Před měsícem

      I totally agree, i wasn’t clear in my post, it should be the exact same rides, I meant that you had to agree to start with a different ride from the same list, otherwise you might just go in the same order, yes and one child would go with each parent, and they would enjoy developing the plan, I go to Disneyland on a semi-regular basis because that’s all we can afford, I do a lot of preplanning to maximize fun and minimize walking because it’s exhausting to walk around the parks, and they would lend themselves to your videos, I can share them with you, they take some explaining so it would be easier to send you an email

    Hi, we are planing to go to Disneyland and DCA the last week of July. We are going Monday-Wednesday. Do you think the crowds will be very high?
    By the way, watching your videos always helps us when we visit the park! 😊
