 Hey friends tonight. We are hanging out at Disney's Hollywood studios The Christmas season is upon us and we are going to be checking out all the holiday festivities and new food items We have dining reservations at Minnie's Holiday Dine where we're gonna see our favorite characters dressed up in their Christmas Best and then we're gonna ride some rides eat some food and have a cheerful Hollywood Studios kind of night Anyhoo, let's go do this All of the Christmas decorations and music at Hollywood Studios make me feel nostalgic because this is the stuff that I grew up on I just love coming here for the holidays and I can't wait to see it snow later on Sunset that is one of my favorite things of the year Hollywood Studios and Magic Kingdom are both my favorite parks during the holiday season because they have so much that you can do Toy Story Land is all decked out for Christmas They even have a ride overlay on air lane swirling saucer that I hope that we can actually do tonight And then like I said the sunset Season greetings is such an awesome show. They project like different projections on the Tower of Terror and it snopes Look at that just as I'm talking about how much I love it here. It starts snowpin. Oh, I love it I think the holiday parade is gonna start making its way through here. So we're gonna have to stick around a little bit Oh, there it is Look at the reindeer. They're the best I love that little holiday cavalcade. The reindeers are prancing around a little bit and Santa's in the car It's very fun and I can't wait to later on with all the decorations light up Like it's so pretty here and then the Christmas music and we're really gonna have a great time today So I'm so very excited I have to say I feel like the Christmas tree at Echo Lake is probably my favorite Disney Christmas tree I just love the ornaments in the water. I love how Gertie has a little Santa Claus add-on and like I said I like the old I feel like it's like 80s and 90s like decorations like the reindeers and the Santa Claus is and stuff like that It just makes me feel like I'm growing up again Let me know in the comments what your favorite Christmas tree whether it be Magic Kingdom Epcot Hollywood Studios or Animal Kingdom like I said mine. It's it's gotta be Hollywood Here is where we're gonna be going to have dinner later on Hollywood and Vine and it actually changes by the season So they have a Christmas one a Halloween one a spring one a summer one And I have to say the holiday one is my favorite because I love seeing all of the characters dressed up. I Was gonna start making my way down to Toy Story Land Because they have Woody and Jesse dressed with their like holiday outfits on and alien swirling saucer Had the holiday overlay, but I found some really cool Christmas treats here at the Dockside Diner. I think we're gonna get those first Take a look at this. They've got a hot cocoa flight a flight of three hot Cocos with Stoly vanilla vodka red stag cherry whisker and barely I alice cream I said red stag cherry whisker I love that and barely's Irish cream liquor and then they also have a holiday tree marshmallow Bean marshmallow in raspberry jam dipped in a chocolate on top of a vanilla cookie. They both look so fun Look at how cute this little flight is. I love it and I can't wait to try the red stag whiskers That's gonna be amazing. I can't tell which one is which but I'm gonna assume that it's going from hot cocoa to Bailey's Cuz that's like the lightest color and then here's the marshmallow tree I think this is all marshmallow right here on top. These are actually really fun-looking desserts Like I like this a lot Let's dive into the hot cocoa flight here. I think we're doing the regular hot cocoa with Stoly vanilla in there. Oh Wow, that's so good And that's definitely the Stoly one and now we're gonna jump over to the Bailey's one Bailey's Good but now it's time for the whiskers gotta get the whiskers That one's got a kick. I think it's the cherry. It's the stag They're all very good But I also like how they presented them to like on this little plastic little cart because like I'm used to Disney just using like Tiny pixie cups, but this is like very very fancy. It was $13 for this That's not too bad at all. Consider on the fact that it probably cost you like probably $15 from one whole hot cocoa with like one shot of like alcohol in it. So you're kind of getting a value here All right, enough with the hot cocoa business now. It's time to try the little Christmas tree. Look at this I love this. It's actually really really awesome looking But I don't know how to eat it though because I'm assuming that this top part is all marshmallow And then the cake is at the bottom or like a little cookie there So I guess we're just gonna I don't know bite the top of the tree I mean, I was gonna go in for it like that. Hold on Yep, it's all marshmallow. So then you had to lift it up and probably bite on the bottom side here. Oh My lord Look at that Okay, that is amazing. It's like a marshmallow linser cookie. That is so good. I like it a lot It's got me. It's got me hooked. I Do feel like it does leave you with a lot of marshmallow though I mean, I kind of enjoyed the cookie part the most but now I'm losing it I got a little bit of jelly left a little bit of cookie and that's it Now it's time. We're gonna make our way down to Toy Story Land and see if we can ride alien swirling saucer Take a look at this on our way over to Toy Story Land ran into a little holiday themed Chip and Dale. Oh I like your bells jingle bells Jingle bells are very very very cozy. You guys look cozy, especially with the scarves and the hats Definitely want to just like curl up by a fire with some nuts Chip and Dale look really fun and festive and I like how they're just standing there Meeting guests instead of like having a formal line You just walk up take a picture then leave and they're so fun They're playing with presents and they had like a nice little scarf and a nice little hat on very festive Look at that Woody is all decked out with his scarf and then we got a little garland there Fun fact the reason the statue sounds so much like Woody is because it's the voice of Tom Hanks's brother I think that's really cool and he's actually doing a meet and greet here And I think like I said him and Jesse are dressed up with some holiday attire as well. Oh And look at this we actually have Buzz dressed up like a Santa Claus. I love that I love the sound Wow toy story land is really bumping today buzzes out with a Santa hat on the toy soldiers are doing their march again I'm liking this Look at Jesse and Woody got their holiday vest on. Oh, that is awesome So much just happened in a little time there Like I said, they really went all out in toy story land And we didn't even get over to alien swirling saucers yet like all the characters are out the marching band is back Very I'm very happy and look at this. They even have the ham Christmas cookie So like I said, they really I mean normally they have Christmas lights hanging in here like all year round But like they've added so much and it's just so it's it's really fun Now it's time to head to alien swirling saucers and the Christmas overlay isn't every single time I think it's every third song so you actually have to ask for it or kind of time it and I think it's happening Right now, so we have to wait three rounds before it'll do it again Looks like we timed it perfectly This is a regular sound and the next one should be the Christmas one. I love this ride so much It literally just makes me smile. Look at that alien over there. No one's riding with them. It must be a bad driver. I Hope we timed it right because if not we're just gonna have to go and wait again It was a posted 40 minute wait But I felt like it was like only like 10 minutes like this ride isn't the most popular ride Which I don't understand because I love it so much All right, it's the moment of truth Are we gonna hear Christmas music and Christmas lights? We'll find out in a second here better at night Happy holidays The claw of the Christmas music for alien swirling saucers But also slinky dog dash has a little holiday overlay too not as big as that one But I'll have to show you guys you might be able to hear it Slinky dog dash actually has sleigh bells on it. So you might be able to hear it as it comes by I Don't know if you get a herd it or not, but that's really awesome. I Don't know if you can hear it or not I wish I could actually ride it But I think it's like a hundred minute wait and also Tower of Terror is like a hundred and thirty minute wait It's a pretty busy day here at Hollywood Studios Looks like we're just in time for the tree lighting any second now and also look at that amazing sunset happening This is gonna be really beautiful Isn't she a beaut Clark. Oh love it That was really fun We got to catch the tree lighting now I think we'll head over and see if we can see sunset season greetings as that kicks off But all the lights are on I mean, it's it's merry and bright finally Look at this. I love the lights and the music and now we're gonna make our way down sunset That's when season greetings is gonna happen That's when they do the snow open the projections on the Tower of Terror Usually they have Muppets and all different sections or they make it the toy hotel. It's one of my favorite things So here it goes this big line in front of us is all for Fantasmic tonight We're here for sunset season greetings We might actually watch Fantasmic later on tonight though Maybe if we have enough time after Hollywood and Vine, but I'm just excited like I said all these people It looks like they're here for sunset season greetings, but that's what I'm here for Oh I think this is the toy hotel watch this Or different like that and then the last one is when it actually snopes and that's the one I like the most Even though I do like the toy story one They're good Thanks, man. Oh place to go Let it snow. Let it snow. Let it snow How cool would it be waiting in line for Fantasmic and you're just getting this nice little snow. What are they Kristin? Snow don catch it with your tongue. I Don't suggest it and don't breathe it in either The snow definitely changes everything it just makes it feel so much more Holiday-ish here in Florida You know I don't miss the snow up north though because like everyone thinks it's just like that pretty like white snow The first snow is very gorgeous. I love the first snow But then when you get like all the dirt and mud and rock salt all mixed in and it's like slush I don't miss that. I don't miss that at all. I Love sunset season greetings But now it's time for some din din and I'm so excited to actually head on over to Hollywood and Vine And like I said, we're gonna see the characters all dressed up They're gonna be in their Christmas best.
