 Hey friends, tonight we are going to be doing a holiday themed monorail crawl. We're going to be taking the monorail to the different Magic Kingdom resorts trying some adult beverages and snacks at the different lounges and restaurants and looking at the Christmas decor. We might actually end up doing some Christmas caroling as well depending on how the night goes. Anywho's, let's go do this. Today is December 21st and Christmas is only four days away and there goes the monorail right there. A trusty form of transportation for the night and I'm so excited. We've been doing this for a while We don't really have a system. We kind of just go with the flow of things But we always start at the contemporary and we always try to get at least one drink and one food item. This year is going to be our first time doing the monorail crawl without the wave. Now it's Steakhouse 71 and we've always used the wave as like our starting point because we loved like sitting in the Blue Room. So now we're going to make a new tradition with Steakhouse 71 and we're going to go from the contemporary to the Polynesian to the Grand Floridian and then back over here and using the monorail and just kind of enjoying all of the resort amenities and getting some drinks. We're going to be meeting up with some friends once we get inside the contemporary and usually like Jackie's Super Enthusiast here and Josh and Taylor the Walt Disney World couple are inside But we also have some new people joining our crew our monorail Christmas crew And it's going to be a fun festive evening. My favorite thing about doing these like monorail crawls is just being able to document it and make a video because it is so Fun like you can see everything as it progresses through the nights after we had a couple beverages people start loosening up I remember last year we were singing Christmas carols on the monorail And I hope that that actually happens again today and a lot of the resort lounges actually have holiday themed drinks and that's like the best part It's kind of discovering all these fun festive things to do and it doesn't cost anything It doesn't cost like a park ticket. You can just visit the resorts for free Now parking is a little bit tricky You do need to actually have a dining reservation to park at any of the resorts But you can always park at the TTC and actually take the monorail and that's the whole point of it It's just riding the monorail We all like to actually dress up in our favorite Christmas outfits I got some nice Christmas lights on they're gonna glow a little bit later on I got my home alone Roosevelt and also take a look at my ugly sweater fedora. This is so amazing I've been actually saving this just for tonight Now it's time to head on in and we're at the contemporary and we're gonna go right on over to steakhouse 71 And look at the finally a goat This is seriously one of my favorite places to actually come and hang out I like it even though I do miss the wave like the blue rooms I like being in here because it's like a cozy little living room Now it looks like most of the crew is showing up and it's time for our first drink of the evening And they do have a holiday drink here at the steakhouse 71 So I'm gonna have to get it. I have to get the holiday drink The holiday drink is snowy dreams and it's a cognac with cream de coco half and half and a holiday Spice syrup so basically like a boozy eggnog and I'm excited to try it and also I think we're gonna get ourselves some food to one of my favorite things actually eat here at the lounge is the peanut Butter and jelly chicken wings so that'll go hand-in-hand and Take a look at the spread right here on the table and we're all together now Taylor Josh Walt Disney World couple Promise Travis. Yes. I'm so excited. You guys ready for a holiday monorail. I know the crawl crawl The crawl crew and we have more joining us too. I think so we're just gonna have fun and we're starting the night pretty strong Me and Travis both got the snowy falls snowy falls and like I said, it's like a little Eggnog drink. I like it though. It's actually really nice Wait, well, I mean snowy dreams. I don't know how I got snowy falls out of that But I could see snowy falls kind of sounds nice, you know a mountain snowy falls, you know Yes On top of all of our drinks, we also got some food and these are the peanut butter and jelly chicken wings Look at that. These look actually really good I think they give you five wings and I'm excited. I had these before I liked them a lot. Have you guys ever had any of these? No, well, we're gonna share them sharing is caring There we go I got up so I can actually eat my chicken wing and you guys can see it a little bit and I'm in front of the TV and it's like I'm back in the blue room. I'm back in the blue room. Look at my face Look, it's amazing. But here's here's the peanut butter and jelly chicken wings. I Love the fact that these wings are like double fried and it doesn't have like a strong jelly taste But a very strong peanut buttery taste. These are good good though This actually was very Delightful and funny because the manager came out and said this is like a Walt Disney drink And if you know Steakhouse 71 Lounge is known for a bunch of Disney family like recipe and Disney wines And this is basically a Tom and Jerry and this is what Walt liked to drink and they had a little setup in his apartment in Disneyland So kind of honored and it was good Thanks Now we are one drink down and I think we're gonna move along from Steakhouse 71 And maybe head outside for a little contemporary Christmas cornhole Before we actually head out though Chris and Maria from League Bund of Visitors have joined up with us And they're getting caught up so they're gonna get the snowy dreams to go and there's bow. There's my man bow Good good Since we don't actually have a plan of anything we really do just go with the flow We decided to come out to the Sam bar, which is the like pool sidebar and maybe try to play some cornhole before we Move on to the Polynesian, but eventually we're gonna hop on the monorail and head on over there And maybe just do two drinks at this resort. Maybe two drinks at the next one. Maybe two drinks at all of them I mean, we just kind of go is it goes take it as it goes Right outside the contemporary they have the contemporary resort sand bar and I love it in here They have a good selection of different mixed drinks, but today I think I'm gonna get a little Bud Light Lime You don't do a little mixed drink do a little beer and we'll do have a nice little rotation Now I think it's time for the Christmas contemporary cornhole. I mean, I don't think we're gonna keep score We're just gonna throw some bags and some holes Toss us the bag Pretty good. Oh, come on. So I guess now we're playing if you make it in the hole you drink Yeah, make it in the hole you drink I'll try I'll try on this side. Oh he knocked it in I'm gonna try the floater The old floater here Watch your head I'm gonna try the ball. Yes, I'm gonna try the ball Here's the wind up and the pitch I think we're all corn holed out and it's time to move along two drinks down and We're gonna start making our way to the monorail So now we're gonna actually be trying to recreate the friends one at a time. We all get it. Yep Oh, this is gonna be interesting put it inside the Mickey ears Okay, then y'all Now to the monorail to the Polly to the monorail, I know Yeah, yeah It's been this eventful so far Here comes our trusty steed for the evening Look at this we got our own private monorail fancy monorail orange Boy I see We made it to the Polynesian It's good to be back at the Polynesian and the Christmas decorations around to and I don't know where we're gonna go first Oh gotta fix my hat. There we go I'm so happy that I got this hat somebody sent me this hat and thank you so much I don't remember the name that was on the package But just know how much I appreciate it that I have saved it this whole entire time just for tonight Here it is the Polynesian lobby We put our name in at Trader Sam's but they said it could be two hours So I think we're gonna head over to the barefoot pool bar and they have a Christmas drink And then maybe come over to the Tiki Terrace depending on you know if they call us to Trader Sam's or not But it's great to be at the Poly Here we are we made it to the barefoot bar and they actually have a gingerbread Like cocktail so I definitely had to get that and they also have a watermelon dough whip like mixed drink That looks so fancy There it is the gingerbread drink It looks so cool doesn't it I cannot wait to try this oh it looks so so good I Love it gotta get a little of the cram cracker on there. Well, I'm not I'm not too sure if it's graham cracker or gingerbread. Oh Wow that's delicious Actually We wear pink on Wednesdays It's today Wednesday really though When you're at the Polynesian and you got a gingerbread drink might as well have a true Florida Christmas on the beach Malikaliki market is the thing to say They're pumping in the Christmas music right here Wow, it is so beautiful. I love being here and now we're lining up the chairs Sitting on the beach at the Poly enjoying some drinks This is what life is all about and I love it It is really really cool And I think we're gonna actually do another drink here at the poly and then make our way over to the Grand Floridian I'm so excited for the enchanted rose and maybe getting some truffle french fries. Those are my favorite Now it's time to move along and I don't think we're gonna have time for Trader Sam's instead We might have to do the outside, but they have all the Trader Sam's drinks in there including the Christmas drink this year I'm not too sure what it is. I think it's like a nutcracker and Yeah, I'm still loving being here at the poly. I'm loving seeing all the lights on these lights are good for the mosquitoes So you don't get bit Why do birds suddenly appear every time you won't hear Sitting out on the terrace is actually really really cool Got some nice waterfall sounds in the back I like the lights in here and you can get all of the drinks from Trader Sam's Now I don't think you can get them in their cups though like the special mug that are on the inside But at least you can still get the drinks themselves Here is a look at some of the seasonal offerings that Trader Sam's including the Malikaliki Mai Tai Which is what I'm going for. It's the less sweeter version of the two drinks And the other one is a tropical snowstorm either way. I just want less sweet So I think that's the one. I'm happy we're going with that and also I'm gonna get a couple of pan-fried dumplings a couple two-tree dumplings So this is I think drink four We were just trying to do the math and you know, honestly, you really don't feel it like too much You start getting a little loosey-goosey, you know a little loosey-goosey and open up but having like fun just going around doing this is like the best part and It does take like several hours a lot of people when you watch the video It like seems like it's like condensed into 20 minutes, but it honestly sometimes could take us like six seven hours I remember one time we did a crawl. It was almost nine hours. You remember that it was like a skyliner brought Yeah, the skyliner crawl was like nine hours and it was like, you know what I mean at the end of the day You don't really feel like an e-grade. You just feel tired and you're just like I want to go home But like during it it is like so much fun as you're doing it is so much fun Oh the tropical snowstorm I know that does look great. Thank you Hold on, hold on. Mine's coming I'm gonna stay low because if I go like this It's okay That's right, so I was like I wish I had three hands, right? There we go Okay Cheers We don't even know what we're doing anymore Ready, oh wait hold on One two three nice Mollie Califky my tie is the drink for me on a bright Hawaiian Christmas day The way that light keeps on swaying I feel like we're in like an interrogation here What did you get your drink what? Well, I feel very happy with the Mollie Califky my tie. This is a good drink You got a lot of flair room in there and yeah, I kind of like it a lot of flair Looks like we're about to get some music to maybe some Hawaiian Christmas music Never know maybe a little Mollie Califky Mocky to go with my my tie To go with my Mollie Califky my tie got some pot stickers too. I love these pot stickers I'm gonna do a little dippy on the sauce there. That's the way Cheers to pot stickers These are so so good not as good as the dumplings up over at Ohana, but I love them They're a very good snack and they also have some other snacks. I got some tacos there. Well, it's a little blurry But yep, that's the way we're getting a little bit there It is the tacos now.

Yeah, we should have something that when we were coming to the poly Oh Feliz Navidad Feliz Navidad She did good I Don't want to leave the poly but like I said, we do need to get moving along and it's a little bit backed up in the monorail here Looks like we've got a little bit of a line here. I Think when we came here, we had monorail orange looks like we're getting monorail yellow now Which is the newest monorail to return to the Walt Disney World plate and I can't wait to see the lights on it I don't think it's lit up yet, but this is also our first time doing a monorail crawl with the like special Need for speed lights on the bottom. I I don't know why I call him that I just think it's funny like the need for speed like low lights. You know what I'm talking about Yes, we're testing out what our Christmas Carol is gonna be this ride But we didn't do Mollie Califky Maki because we should have done it on the way here, so we should do it like a quick Yes, well you got to say it quick like Mollie Califky Maki is a thing to say Now dry Hawaiian Christmas day Yeah, see we did good that counts. We did it at the poly Oh Beautiful yes Looks like we didn't fit on monorail yellow. Yeah, so it's a monorail salmon Oh monorail greens flying by in the background there Oh You nice do you guys mind for a little Christmas carols? Hi, Gary, welcome Still driving I gotta go Come back Gary come back You guys want to do some carol? Who here knows police Navidad So we'll get started y'all ready one wait show me what we do. Oh, we got a way to remove. Yeah Oh, wait, wait, here we go one two three Such a magical moment right there We're at the Grand Floridian now, but the whole entire cabin in the monorail started singing Feliz Navidad It was so amazing honestly kind of gave you goosebumps. I I love it Tonight is being such an amazing night. And we still got one stop to go And we have finally made it to the Grand Floridian. Look at that big beautiful tree right there So happy and I think our first stop is gonna be the Enchanted Rose I'm also very excited to get some truffle fries at the Enchanted Rose Those are my favorite fries and maybe the seasonal old-fashioned or the Rhinox I mean they have a lot of great during like drink choices themselves And here we are the enchanted rose. This is such a beautiful like lounge area And we got a nice little table right in the middle here. Look at that We made it We're enchanted Here at the enchanted rose they do have a seasonal old-fashioned and we kind of get it I think I get it every time I come here for the holiday like monorail crawl and we're gonna keep to that tradition It is a little bit on the pricey side twenty five dollars But it is well worth it. It is a good old-fashioned and like I said before the Rhinox too. That's another strong one Josh actually ran over here instead of taking the monorail. Oh, you're watch. Yes He casually walked and we just placed our drinks, but he already has a mojito in the truffle fries He was ready. That's why he got here so quick. That's what's going on. Well, he's probably gonna get around to maybe. I don't know Oh We'll catch up. I'll try And here they are. This is the seasonal old-fashioned little crushed Handmade bitters that they do here. Is that what they do? Yeah, and then they yeah and they crafted they use the cranberries and they got a little orange peel Where's my orange peel? Hey? Oh, there it is. There it is. Yeah And then Travis has got one too same one and then you have the Amor Very fancy and then what did you get? The island rose and then Josh he still got his mojito over there doing his mojito thing I love mojitos.

The parmesan cheese is 18 years old 18 year old cheese parmesan Yeah, it's in these fries are legal But I love these so so good And now we are all done with the enchanted rose I don't think we're gonna do a second drink at the Grand Floridian I think we probably hit our limit. We've hit our limit for the night and time to head back and Hop on the monorail. We've got to get back over to the contemporary Before we actually board the monorail, I think we need to swing in the basin so we can wash our hands It's important to have that good personal hygiene, especially when you're traveling the monorail route Sure seems like a lot of people in here that want to wash their hands though You have to share the sink Share the sink ladies Which one are you gonna grab Okay, okay, what's your hands first, okay, I'm gonna take Oh This is the way Now our hands are all clean it's time to hop back on the monorail and Wrap this up tonight. I mean, this is such a fun little evening I'm kind of sad we didn't do like a second drink here at the Grand Floridian But I mean I'm impressed with what we've gotten accomplished so far tonight and it's getting kind of late tonight There's actually a Christmas party or Christmas after hours and it's the last Christmas after hours and Chris and Maria actually left us before we got to the Grand Floridian because they're actually going to that after hours But we're not going tonight. So this is gonna be the end of the road one last monorail ride Thank You Gary We got Gary as our monorail pilot again, how lucky are we and we're a monorail yellow We were talking about this before and we weren't able to get it But at least we get a good ride and I think we've had a different monorail each time So you'll lead us on that huh So we wish you a Merry Christmas. I think that's the one We wish you a Merry Christmas There she is All lit up looks a little busy out there though, huh? Look at the castle in the tree And there it is the contemporary we've made a full circle around the Magic Kingdom resort loop And with that I think we are done here. What a fun night. I love doing the monorail Crawl of hanging out with friends we get to just go around and enjoy and I do have to say this does like I said Take a little bit longer than you guys think I think we started at 2 o'clock. It's 10 o'clock now so it's been about eight hours and It's just like an adventure. It's like a cool adventure and I had so much fun What do you guys think would you ever be interested in doing a monorail crawl like this is a great thing to do? Especially like I said earlier if you don't like have a park ticket This is free to do and you can just come and buy food and drinks and just enjoy the resorts I always love doing I love hanging out with friends and also like speaker friends Make sure you check out everyone's videos Josh Taylor Walt Disney World couple Lake Boone of visitors and Promise and Travis and I wish Jackie was here.
