Ep 147. The One with the Grand Floridian

LISTEN TO THE SHOW HERE!!

In the 147th episode of The Main Street Electrical Podcast, Jenn & Dave kick off the show with a house update from Jenn, and planning a Disney trip around an overly excited 11yo at d$'s house. 

But first... a handful of news bites, including the reopening of ToonTown at Disneyland Park, as well as the soft opening of Tron in Magic Kingdom, and a great change to Genie+.

Then, advice on why you should never assume Disney will be slow, and why you pretty much need to have a plan when you go.

Finally... a look at the history of the Grand Floridian, including what it was supposed to be (an Asian themed resort?), how it morphed into what it is now, and the beauty and wonder of the resort itself -- including how Disney helps you not be disoriented when you come into the lobby from the 2nd floor.

Plus, Jenn's own take on her favorite restaurants there, the Enchanted Rose, Victoria & Alberts, the best shops, and why she feels so at home when she stayed at the Grand Flo.

045. The One with Overlooked Epcot

In the 45th episode of The Main Street Electrical Podcast, Jenn & Dave make it a short show this week for Spring Break. 

A quick conversation about allergy dining at Disney, then they take a close look at Epcot -- not just the big stuff like Soarin or Test Track, but the smaller things that tend to be overlooked -- things that are loved that some don't notice. 

Certain Epcot background music... the East Atlantic Current... visuals on the monorail... spending time in The Land... and so much more.
