 Hey friends today. We are hanging out at the contemporary resort and we're gonna be doing a springtime themed Monorail crawl. I'm very excited We're gonna be taking the monorail to all the different Magic Kingdom resorts and seeing what springtime favorites They have and even some Easter offerings I know some of the lounges actually have Easter specialty cocktails and I'm very excited to try them So let's go do this If you're not familiar with what a monorail crawl is Well, basically we are going to be taking the monorail and visiting all the different resorts and getting ourselves an alcoholic beverage or a themed snack and then Hopping back on the monorail and visiting the next one on its stop route So it's a very fun activity to do and it doesn't cost any money except for getting your drinks and getting your snacks And uh, yeah, I love it I believe it's been just about a year since we started doing seasonal monorail crawls where we come And we do a monorail crawl themed to the holidays So we've done Christmas Halloween end of summer and now we're rolling into the springtime season and Add a little Easter into it and I'm very excited because they all have different Easter themed drinks Like they had Christmas themed drinks and Halloween themed drinks And I love thinking like I love doing themed things So if you guys want to check out those videos, I will put the video links in the description And you guys can take a look at those because they're really fun And our first stop here at the contemporary is going to be the wave because they always have specialty seasonal cocktails and I think they've got some pretty nifty Easter ones happening right now Just take a look at those right there. We've got an Easter egg mimosa a bunny sparkler And the chocolate egg. These are fantastic. I can't wait to try them Oh and look at that here they come Fancy We decided on taking our cocktails over into the blue room and joining me today on our epic Easter monorail crawl Jackie happy Easter. Happy Easter Because Jackie really doesn't like gin so much I think I'm gonna start with the bunny sparkler and then Jackie's gonna probably dive right into the chocolate egg Which is Bailey's Godiva coca-cola core Frangillico and half and half and she tried to make like a very pretty uh Mickey in there, but it was hard because it didn't actually stay So it looks like mini with beer, uh with uh with the bowl, right? Yeah, it looks more like mini definitely. She tried though You know they don't hold up too good, but it was we appreciate the effort. So happy Easter Happy Passover if you celebrate happy Easter if you celebrate happy spring to everyone This is really light and refreshing so you can taste the gin But like also the grapefruit and the sparkling water in there very refreshing like it's a delicious drink Jackie what do you think about the chocolate egg? It's great. It tastes like a chocolate martini You can get these in a lot of disney bars. It's very chocolatey. It's very chocolatey very creamy and rich Very low on the alcohol taste, but very yummy on the chocolatey taste fancy I'm excited to try the Easter egg mimosa I don't know what really makes it different like as an Easter egg itself because it's orange juice pineapple juice And then sparkling wine, but what what makes it Eastery? I I do like that. There's a pineapple and strawberry on top though Maybe that's it. Maybe it's just the colors I'm gonna get a little little sip sip here Oh, that is good too. All of these drinks are very light very refreshing very like springtime and Eastery Like I guess it really goes well with the menu. It's not really hard on the alcohol It's refreshing The one thing though that I do not like about the bunny sparkler is the grapefruit juice Not a big grapefruit juice fan. So I think I'm gonna do a little mixing around here. You're gonna add this And this Yeah, I need to get that. That's what I was thinking. Hold on. So we're gonna we're gonna combine it and make it a Pineapple orange sparkle bunny sparkle. Okay. I like the idea ready. Yeah ready They're both sparkly because uh the one has club soda the other one has the sparkling wine in it So basically what we're doing is missing mixing uh grapefruit juice pineapple juice orange juice gin sparkling wine and club soda It tastes better this way Yep, it does tastes better this way So that's our first stop done done Now that we got our first stop done We're gonna board the highway in the sky and head on over to the Polynesian But a quick pit stop at the TTC because the monorail doesn't stop at the poly right now because of the refurbishment So we'll walk from there. It's gonna be a little fun journey Before we go though, we can see they've got some really nice Easter festivities here at the contemporary An Easter egg resort scavenger hunt uh courtyard activities. Look bunny bingo I am so excited to go for a monorail ride I feel like I haven't been on there and like in a couple of weeks or even months and it's beautiful out right now Oh, there it is Wait for us I'll never forget you and it'll be my first time with the new separators. Looks like we're going to 15 It's gonna be hard to do monorail We've been delayed delayed I say And there's the cancel Is Coming up on our stop like I said, we have to get off here to walk to the Polynesian because they're refurbishing What we're refurbishing they're doing a refurbishment on their monorail loading platform There we go It's such a beautiful day actually to walk to I love it but by monorail teal You can see we got the sign for the Polynesian walkway and then the signs for the parking lot villains and heroes I think this is the only parking lot that actually has a villain side and I like it It was only about a three minute walk and we've been doing this now. What is this the third holiday monorail crawl, right? Yeah, yeah, because halloween it was closed still, isn't it? Yeah, no, no We did halloween. Oh, we did halloween But oh so christmas it was closed and now this is the springtime monorail crawl So it would be the second one since the monorail station has been closed And it's not that big of a a walk out of the distance But it does feel different when you're able to just take the monorail. I love it Now that we've made it to the Polynesian our first stop is for an easter Dole whip. How cool is that? Right here at the pineapple lanai. It looks really really fancy And I'm gonna see if we can get maybe some rum in it have a little rum in uh dole whip a rum in easter dole whip Sounds fancy Look at that. It is a easter marshmallow soft serve and then of course You can get a little bit of rum in there and make it a rum in Dole whip. This is gonna be fancy. I'm excited Now we've got our marshmallow easter uh soft server. It's not like a dole whip But I mean it's a soft server and we got our topper and we get to enjoy with a view. Look at this Beautiful isn't it easter bunny in the cloud. Oh, would you look at that? Fancy so let's try this. Let's try it without the rum. Yeah That is good Mmm I'm gonna be brave and I'm gonna try it now because it's not like a dole whip This is parrot bay and it's coconut rum So coconut with marshmallow soft serve So I don't know if I should go full blown and just dump it in there or I don't want to ruin my life All right. All right. All right. All right. I'm gonna shoot it You're gonna take like a shot. I'm gonna I'm gonna take it as a shot And then chase it with the marshmallow soft serve. Oh my gosh. Okay. Are you ready? Oh my gosh. I'm ready All right. I'm ready. Are you ready? Oh, I'm ready. Here we go. Are you ready for this? I'm ready for this Yikes It mixes very well. Oh Oh, yeah That's very very good Do a spoon shot. Yeah, do like a little spoon just yeah put a little bit right on there Go ahead just like that. Okay. Okay. You might want a little bit more ice cream, but that might be good It mixes good doesn't it You're shocked I can tell by your face. You'll liked it. I'm trying to tell both cameras I'm gonna give it a little yeah jackie's gonna give me a little bit of her shot Just so I can have it her way. There you go. There we go. Yes. Yes. Yes. Oh hurry Is that not so good? Why does that mix so well? I don't know Marshmallow with coconut parapé rum Why? Method to the madness. It tastes so good. The coconut rum adds so much flavor I'm sorry. I'm just jealous because you had a better system. I'm like baby. I know but I wish I did the same As I said, it's an orthodox method, but it's a method. Actually you suggested that we're doing this for yourself Oh, why did I do the things I do? The thing is is I wasn't expecting that we can get the rum topper with this Easter soft serve So like a trip to the Polynesian isn't complete without grabbing a drink and hanging on the beach So we're gonna go over and we're gonna see what's at the barefoot bar Maybe they have an Easter drink. I don't know or maybe we'll just get a beer and hang out on the beach and Just enjoy this because I'm loving it. Like I feel like I am loving it right now I am so happy Done There are a couple different spots where you can grab a drink at the Polynesian But Trader Sam's is not one of them because it is closed But the barefoot pool bar is a sleeping gem I love coming out here because they have a very big Variety of cocktails and even some dole whip cocktails So I like to come out here and we always sit on the beach and enjoy a drink. So Easter I have to do it Just look how beautiful it is out here. And then you have the nice Polynesian music It doesn't look like they have any Easter drinks here. So I think we're just gonna get a Havana logger I've had this beer before and I really liked it and I seen that they have it here And I think it's a good beach beer. That's important You showed me the beer You can have on about one Look at this skill right here But wow, I love coming to hang out at the beach I do I'm very excited. I'm not gonna drop the beers That's an Easter egg. It is holy moly I wasn't expecting that me neither, especially in the sand. Oh, is that another one? Oh my gosh, there's another one right there And it's a real egg. Wait, are there more Easter eggs? Oh now we're on like an Easter egg hunt. Oh boy All right, we got to find these Easter eggs I know yeah, we have to rebury it so that other people can find it I really thought this was another Easter egg, but it's it's a spoon It's a spoon, but it was perfectly shaped That was so awesome wasn't expecting to see Easter eggs, but we kept them there We don't want to pick them up because we're other people to find them and we found two of them and a spoon And uh, it made it magical. Like I I giggled like I was like, oh boy. I got super excited Living life here kid Yep, look at that. What a view we got that wonderful Polynesian music. Oh, and then there's the bungalows I'm telling you that brings back such great memories One of my favorite memories of all time was drinking coffee at the bungalow on Christmas Eve So amazing like I was staying there and I went out to like my little deck area and had coffee at 7 a.m. And it was It's amazing As nice as it is over here at the beach of the Polynesian I think we're gonna have to move along and go to the Grand Floridian I don't think we're gonna walk back to TTC to grab the monorail It's probably a lot easier and faster to walk to the Grand Floridian from here and then take the monorail back to the contemporary So that's what we're gonna do Here's the beach area and you can see right there is the Grand Floridian. So definitely a lot quicker to just walk It also looks like we timed it that maybe we'd be able to catch a sunset when we get to the Grand Floridian It's such a nice night. The sun's hitting me in the eyes right now So we're gonna walk through most of the construction area for the Polynesian So that's gonna be nifty to look at as well look at this the walkway to the Grand Floridian resort and then What used to be the spirit of aloha dinner show Here is a look at the spirit of aloha dinner show And you can see they got everything still set up in there, but rumor has it. It's not coming back I don't think they would just let this go to waste. So they might rethink it might be something different Maybe maybe moana. That'd be fancy I see what's happening here Your face to face with greatness and it's strange. You don't even know how to feel It's adorable. It's nice to see the humans never changed. Open your eyes. Let's begin Yes, it's really me. It's my way breathe it in And now we are over at the Grand Floridian only about three minutes Like literally it was three minutes to get over here a hopscotch away hopscotch Hopscotch We're gonna cut through the disney vacation club lobby because they do have some chocolate easter eggs inside here And I wanted to show you those and also they finally finished the construction on the Penguin following. I wanted to see what it looks like. I'm sure it's just the same way it was but probably a little cleaner And look there is an egg Is that pegasus? I don't know who that is, but I like it a chocolate sculpture hand decorated by the Grand Floridian bakery Look at that Happy easter. What is pegasus? I see him in the back there Well, the egg is fantasia itself, but I think there was a little pegasus in the back there I love hercules. What can I say hercules hercules And take a look at the penguin fountain I'm so happy to see this the walls have been up for quite some time and it's my first time seeing them with the walls down Look at that. It goes all the way up. Hello I'm not sure if they have any easter drinks here. We're going to check the pool bar and then of course Enchanted rows, but they do have some easter treats and easter eggs like we've seen in the dbc building in the main lobby So at least as long as there's some kind of spring easter Theming going on I feel happy I feel happy regardless though The pool bar didn't have any special easter drinks So now we're going into the main main lobby and this is always just easter decorated with like nice little easter eggs So i'm sure we'll find something fancy in here Easter Yeah, look at that as soon as we walked in they have an egg walk a design your own mickey ears at four o'clock Bunny lawn games at six What time is it? 646 we missed the bunny Oh, dang it Oh Look at this how beautiful and then right next to the piano a wonderful easter egg and it's Humpty Dumpty The chocolate sculpture hand decorated by the great of florida and bakery. Oh, you can see the elevator coming in Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall and that honestly looks like alice a little bit right there, doesn't it? That is beautiful And then take a look at the castle here and the one thing that stands out to me There's a little hidden mickey right there Abibity bobby boo I'm gonna head on up to the enchanted rose which is on the second floor I'm gonna take our favorite little staircase. This is my favorite staircase on Walt Disney World property And here we are at the enchanted rose one of my favorite lounges of Walt Disney World Look how beautiful it is in here all beauty and the beast themed And we're actually gonna go into the green room. Well inside the enchanted forest area Look at that. Isn't it beautiful? Oh, hello Oh fancy that The fairy tale forest. I thought it was in the enchanted forest You make your own rules Two seats actually came available at the bar so we decided to come over and sit here I do love the enchanted forest But I like the lighting in here and I like seeing our drinks made. I think it's extra fancy, especially the drinks were about to order You know because normally the drinks are like kind of brought out table side and told with a story But because of covid they're not doing that you can still order the drinks But you can't see them prepare it unless you're sitting at the bar. So Here we are These are the table side cocktails we were talking about it says the tail of table side cocktails Normally they bring the cart out and they would tell you a story About beauty and the beast as they prepared the cocktails and they don't do that now So at least we can sit up here and we can watch it and they were very fancy and they were signature Cocktails so we got one of each and more an envy and we're going to try to play a guessing game of who's getting what Wow If you're in there some bitters Look at all those fancy liquors This is going to be really awesome. I haven't had one of these since it first opened I actually I had this on opening day and I never got a chance to I never got to try them. Oh, yeah Oh That's definitely a more because here comes the rose petals Beautiful well, I guess we know who's getting what and here comes the envy And Here it is a tail of table side cocktails Obviously to the left we have love gift with thought truly seeing someone And no strings attached and you can see the rose petals in there and then envy The cocktail which is a story green with envy strong and bitter This is good stuff. I felt like Dwight. I felt like Dwight singing that Envy green with envy But look at how beautiful that is isn't it? Honestly, so you got envy and love This That is good I really really love my drink it is a little bit stronger than the Amora Amora And the bartender's kind of just uh, he set it down in front of us and that's the way we went with it Yeah, you know we just went we're just rolled with it And Jackie says that that might be her favorite cocktail on Walt Disney World property. It's so delicious. It's got the tea flavor in it and it's just Out of this world. It's so good. That makes it so happy. Can I eat one of your rose petals? Yeah I gave you a bigger one. Oh, here we go eating a rose petal To spring to spring and to new life new life. Cheers. Cheers The rose petals weren't very delicious. So we decided to get some truffle fries and I have to tell you These might be my favorite fries on Walt Disney World property. I love them. They have such Like special taste. I think the Parmesan cheese is like 18 months Age like aged. Yeah. Yeah, and look at the black truffle on top of there And it's a big portion. They're $14, but I really think they're well worth it and it goes well with our with our drinks I don't know why those truffle fries are so amazing But I love them and I get them all the time whenever I come here and this far is so cool It's such a chilled atmosphere. So so happy we stopped here So now we must be moving along Now we're gonna jump back aboard the monorail and make our way past the magic kingdom and over to the contemporary I am so excited. What a fun night. This has been so exciting. I absolutely love all of the stops and uh, yeah This has been great. And I think maybe I'll wash my hands I say that so sudden because I always like to stop to base and white here at the Grand Floridian And always wash my hands and they even have some spring flavored soaps and Easter soaps that I want to show you As you can see we have daisy soap with the nice little daisies on it And then a mickey like floral soap and then Easter ain't bath bombs three for 15 Very fancy lots of cool springtime Easter like soaps and I love basin soap. It's always the best And these are hand silky smooth Yeah And now to the monorail direct services that kind of elbow by bus Whoop and here it comes monorail red Look how beautiful this is I'm so excited on the way here. We had monorail teal Oh, and it looks like we got one empty for ourselves. Oh, I like it fancy Hey Only because we have it to ourselves, but if we need to combine we will Yes, oh Do you know what this means? Means we can do monorail aerobics, but you can't really twist and turn here And then Well, and now we are at the contemporary Now we've made it back to the contemporary so that is our full monorail loop And I think the only thing left to do is say good night to the castle Always have to say good night to the castle Thank the monorails for being excellent transportation for this evening There she goes I love it and then of course Uh, good night to the castle. The park closes at nine o'clock tonight. It is 8 30 So park's still open for another 30 minutes, but because it's Easter weekend I don't think we were going to be able to get a park pass. So just hung out at the resorts and had a fun night And uh, at least we get to see good night to that beautiful castle So I hope you guys enjoyed the video. I had so much fun Just spending Easter crawling around the magic kingdom resort loop. I absolutely love it This is such a cool activity and it's like I said, it's free to do All you have to do is pay for your drinks and your snacks and I absolutely love it It is really fun.
