Hop aboard the Monorail around the Seven Seas Lagoon for another edition of What’s New Monorail Resorts.
First stop: Disney’s Polynesian Resort!

So, we hopped into a monorail and swung around to Polynesian Resort, Grand Floridian Resort and Spa, and Contemporary Resort to see everything new in food and merchandise!
It hasn’t been very long since our last check-in on the presumable walkway which will join Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort to the Magic Kingdom.

While one of our favorite parts of planning a trip to the Disney parks over the last couple of years has been deciding which color of MagicBand we’d be sportin’ during our vacay, the choice became even harder in the spring of this year when Disney gave us the option to upgrade from a solid color MagicBand to a character MagicBand — for a small additional cost, of course!
Standing in the Grand Floridian’s gorgeous lobby during the holidays is like being inside a Christmas dreamworld!
