LISTEN TO THE SHOW HERE!!!

In the 207th episode of The Main Street Electrical Podcast, Jenn & Dave talk a little Disney, then a little Caribbean, as summer travels continues to take at least one of the crew out of the country.

First up, Jenn and her coaster, and Dave & his CDs, then both giving a nod to Disney icon and legend Richard Sherman in his passing. 

News confirms the Rock n Roller Coaster opening, looks at Fantasmic! in Disneyland, the massive crowds at the new drone show in Disney Springs, and more updates on Epcot, including the new space for meeting and greeting Mickey.  Then both tiptoe around the new DAS news for Disney World (I'm sure we'll talk more about that in the future)

Finally, Jenn shares her experience in Secrets Tides, a resort on the beaches of Dominican Republic, and what there is to offer. Plus, a conversation about the island itself, and a look at some of the other islands when it comes to food, activities and more.

LISTEN TO THE SHOW HERE!! 

In the 162nd episode of The Main Street Electrical Podcast, Jenn & Dave finally pod together again, and welcome in first time, and of course future, guest and now Friend of the Show, Sarah Sharp, but you may know her on Instagram as Sarah Goes Bananas!

Then, Jenn, d$, and Sarah Goes Bananas share some tried and tested Travel Hacks -- some of their favorite tips regarding passports (watch that expiration date!) and flights (using medical pre-board with special needs) and car rentals (debit cards - bad!) and all-inclusives (tipping is key!) and even some Disney -- tips with the kids and without. 

Don't miss this great conversation from three travel professionals giving you all kinds of wisdom that you may not think about... even packing tips!

Ep 122. The One with Adventures By Disney: Costa Rica

LISTEN TO THE EPISODE HERE

In the 122nd episode of The Main Street Electrical Podcast, Jenn & Dave finally get back to what they wanted to talk about last week... Costa Rica!

First, though, Jenn chats about all her December trip tickets, Dave talks about more shirts (and the couponing that come with it) then they dive into the D23 recap -- a lot of swings a

nd misses on predictions from last week's episode, but mostly because of non-announcements... including The Main Street Electrical Parade's last Disneyland appearance... but maybe not the last last appearance.

Among the highlights, we both give our opinions on the new ride coming to Avengers Campus in Disneyland... 

Then, a rundown of Jenn's trip to Costa Rica via Adventures By Disney, from how to start your trip, what to expect before you take off and after you land, and the numerous activities involved -- in this case, white water rafting, zip lining, Catamarans, walking through a cave, hanging on the beach, and meeting new people and making new friends. Plus, a chocolate waterfall?  Yes please. 

Also, a great discussion on why Disney is the best when it comes to touring the world, and its not "Mickey Mouse in Costa Rica" -- local tour guides, Disney's exclusive excursions and much more, and Jenn's half hour hanging in the Vatican.
