I want them to stay somewhere special So we're gonna check them in to Disney's Port Orleans resort and they're gonna be staying in the Royal Princess rooms So we're gonna eat some cookies do some shopping and have a beautiful Disney Springs kind of day. Any hoes Let's go do this The family is here, and we're gonna hang out and get some cookies You guys have get-eins before once right, but you're gonna try the new cookie the month with me And like I said, it's Ariel's first time. Where's your smile Ariel? That's a smile. I Am so happy that my family is here Most of you guys have seen them in the videos in the past or when I've taken my trips back up to PA But if you don't know my mom is my mom Bonnie is my sister and Ariel is my niece Ariel my sister is Ariel's guardian, and it's her first time coming to Disney So that's why I got the room at Port Orleans, and we're gonna check in later right now Like I said we'll hang out Disney Springs get the cookie do some shopping probably get Ariel her first pair of ears And then we'll go check in and I'll show you the rooms because they're so pretty and we'll hang out the resort a little bit. I Volunteered his tribute to go get the cookies while my mom goes shopping in the days of Christmas store She's got a shop. My mom loves the shop You know how get-eins can be sometimes it could be a couple of hours for a wait Or sometimes they have just a virtual queue where you put your phone number in But I'll go do that so my mom can go shop because she loves shopping She's so excited that Ariel's here, and she wants to buy her ears and buy her nice stuff And I'm excited to be able to like take Ariel to the parks ever since I took her to Kenobos And she rode her first ride and we're gonna take her to Disney and Magic Kingdom But that's that's in the future right now We're just doing Disney Springs today and then waiting for room to get ready, but I'm excited. I'm really happy I hope she likes Disney Looks like they're not doing the virtual queue. So it's probably about a 35 minute wait My mom loves watching my get-eins cookie reviews and she told me I was like I was like mom Do you want me to get your cookie and she said oh give me the cookie you got last time and I was like Oh man, I can't remember what cookie I got all the cookies are blending together But I think she's talking about the coffee cake because if she's talking about the last month cookie It's not there anymore. We have a new month's cookie Here is the menu for the month of April and holy mackerel. Look at the artwork I love it and the cookie the month is a white chocolate caramel macadamia nut And they also have an improved banana nitro cold brew. Oh, so I might get that get the good old cookie combo cookie coffee combo look at the cookies The white chocolate caramel macadamia nut and coffee cake one right there I want to get the coffee cake for my mom because she said she liked it the last time I got it All right, we got the goods and it was about a 30 minute wait And I called my mom when I got out to see where she was that so I could bring the cookies We tried them together and she's still up at the Christmas store. So they didn't move far It's still in the same store. So I guess I'll just go to them and try the cookie Here they are delicious things await you excited. Yeah, I got you the coffee cake cookie Yeah, and then I got two white chocolate macadamia nut cookies the caramel one so that we can try and the banana coffee I know you don't want it But maybe Ariel want it and we'll try the limited edition cookie first out Wow, they actually started putting limited edition on the wrapper there Okay, well, we're gonna dive right on in here it is Look at that You can see all the white chocolate chips and the caramel infused in there and actually smells like very macadamia nutty Macadamia nutty, I mean you can really smell the macadamia nuts. So of course you got to break the cookie Look at that. Oh Actually, you can see the caramel right there Holy moly Water thems the coffee cake that one right there. Yeah, look at that Yeah, it's good, right? Funny you want the other white chocolate macadamia one? Oh, yeah. Oh, I didn't even try the coffee yet Oh Ariel's eating the coffee cake Yeah, I definitely think this is a lot better than last month's cookie And I'm gonna give it the combination here give it the good old cookie bite and then you know quick sip of coffee I don't know why these cookies go so well with the cold brew coffees But they do and they said that this banana one is new and improved I think it's just a consistency of the cookie like the density that makes it so good with the coffee But here we go That's the white chocolate macadamia nut one, right? Which one do you like better? This one over the coffee cake. Oh Bonnie you're trying the coffee cake one The coffee cake one's done. I would probably put this in the top three with the banana nut and The oh, I almost lost it. I almost lost my cookies Ariel you want my cookie here? Thank you Enough of the cookie business We decided to make our way down the world of Disney and Ariel saw the train So I think we're gonna go on a little Disney Springs train ride and the old-timer here Bonnie you going on? Ariel is hearing and visually impaired and She can only see and hear with special assistance But she can't sigh and I was nervous about her riding rides, but she loves rides We rode rides in cannobals when I took her to her first theme park and first she did the carousel And she loved it and then we did the big drop water ride and at first she thought it was raining on her It was great and she's been hooked sense and she's been going to carnivals so her coming to Disney She's like so excited to ride rides if I'm like Ariel you want to ride rides?
