“We Never Had Time for the Pool” — Full Stink Disney World Couples Trip with Kayleen – Ep. 669

Hey Disney Geeks!

This week, Curtis is joined once again by one of our favorite members of the Geekin’ family — Kayleen — as she shares a Walt Disney World trip report from a rare just-the-two-of-them Disney vacation with her husband Scott.

This trip had a little bit of everything we love around here…

Rope drop strategy
Split-stay resort talk
Disney food and drinks
Animal Kingdom stories
Magic Kingdom nostalgia
Lounge reviews
And that classic Disney Geek energy where “relaxing” somehow still means walking 10 miles a day.

Kayleen and Scott stayed at both Old Key West and Animal Kingdom Lodge Kidani Village, tried several new experiences, and packed a TON into this couples getaway.
