✰ DON'T FORGET TO SUBSCRIBE! ✰ In this vlog I take you on our family staycation at Disney's Riviera Resort. Disney's Riviera Resort is so convenient because of the new skyliner transportation. We love having family staycation's during the fall time because it's low tourist season and the parks are less crowded. We ended up having our family staycation at the Riviera because of the pandemic. #DisneyVlog#FamilyVlog

Hi guys!
Welcome to a new vlog.
So today is going to be super fun because I'm combining these two days into one video.
We're going to stay at the Riviera Resort.
If you haven't seen my video on that, I did in the past, I'll link it down below.
We're going to the Riviera and we're going to stay a couple nights and we're also going
to go to Epcot so yeah, I guess let's go.
First I want to show you my little outfit.
I'm wearing this white top with these like pantaloon puffy pants and my white kids.
I didn't want to put on any ears today because I just didn't feel like it.
Look at how good Sherry looks!
Show it off Sherry.
Hi everyone!
She's got the nerdy shoes though.
Nerdy shoes because they're comfortable and I still have blisters on my feet.
Exactly.
And there's Valerie.
Hello!
Don't I look cute?
Yeah you look cute.
She's got her new shirt on.
I have my Epcot hat on.
Oh yes, she loves her Epcot hat.
Alright, let's go!
We have made it to the Disney's Riviera Resort.
COVID-19 warning.
This is Valerie's first time.
Yes it is.
Oh my gosh, this is probably one of my favorites just because it's new.
It's really nice.
I love the theme.
Sorry for the wind.
This lobby though, it's so pretty.
Oh my gosh.
There's tons of good photo locations around here too.
Look at this staircase.
I don't know if I showed this in my other video but look at that.
It's so pretty.
And then of course you guys have seen a little bit of outside there but it looks a little
different.
Shari's going to try to open the door with her phone now.
Yep.
Cool!
Well I don't know what's flashing green.
It won't even work with the magic band.
This is the right room.
One eternity later.
Valerie's magic band opened it.
Ooh, look at this.
Ooh, very nice.
So nice.
This is a studio.
We do get a little balcony, Shari!
So good.
Look at how nice.
You can have your hair on the outside.
Very nice.
Her hair.
couch here, a little coffee table, a little sitting area, we have the bed here, we have
a little kitchenette, we do have a coffee pot, we have little cabinets, a microwave,
refrigerator, a body mirror, so this is the outfit of the day, and then we have in here
the bathroom.
Gotta find a light.
There it is.
So this is the bathroom.
Very pretty.
I'm a little short here, as you guys can see, but we have a little hairdryer, toilet paper,
this is the little shower, then over here we have the toilet, and this shower, or two
showers I should say.
Very cute.
Fun stuff.
Trash can recycling, closet space looking good here, ooh, the lights automatically pop
open.
Very fun.
And I think this goes into the other room, but I'm not sure.
Oh yeah, that's the connecting room.
Sherry's pulling down the other bed here.
There's an issue.
Yeah, look at how nice this is though, so this is supposed to just pull all the way
down and it becomes a bed.
With a little bed head, the header thing.
There we go.
Very nice.
What's that sound?
Yeah, isn't that convenient?
You have the bed and then it's not in the way, okay.
Here is the gorgeous view from our room.
Isn't this so nice?
And tomorrow we'll get to enjoy some of the pool, probably over there.
I know there's another pool somewhere, but I don't know where it is.
But I'm excited.
It's so nice here.
Definitely worth it.
And as you guys can see, all the way over there, those are the Skyliners, and we're
gonna ride the Skyliners over to Epcot.
So cute!
Welcome home, Blink, and to the Piratey.
Now we're heading on to the Disney Skyliner to get over to Epcot.
Alright, we were at the wrong entrance, so now we're doing the official Epcot entrance
Skyliner, so here we go!
Alright, so we came into the building we came into a while ago.
It's this really open area building.
Look at these cool chandeliers, I didn't even notice that last time.
It's pouring outside right now, but there's a little food and wine shop over there that
we'll probably take a look at it later, but we're probably gonna just get a drink, relax.
Did you get wet, Valerie?
Yep!
It is pouring out there, I don't know if you can see it.
My arm is soaked.
I only got a little bit wet.
We're just making a stop to see all the merchandise.
Look at these little tourbuses.
Siri!
Uh-huh?
Good for your coffee.
Over here we have, oh!
You like these types of glasses, they're like miniature fun stuff.
Oh that's cool, I like the glass and the cork board.
That's cool, a little salt and pepper shaker, sorry if my camera's a little shaky.
I'm trying to like work on that, because every time I edit a video, it's always like super
shaky.
I don't really know why.
We've still got the figment going on here.
Ooh, wine glasses!
Here's some wine glasses that says 25 years of cheers, that's fun!
It's for the 25th anniversary of the food and wine festival.
Oh, those are nice, you'd like those, Sherry.
Wonderful time for a beer, that is hilarious.
This is just more, oh look at these ears!
Oh, that's a cute little shirt.
Oh my gosh, oh I love these, they have little grapes, oh my gosh, that is so cute!
Grapes, and then this is a cork board, how freaking cute, I love those.
Oh and they say Epcot International Food and Wine 2020.
I did it, we're gonna buy the ears, and then Valerie's also gonna get this cup, show the
cup real quick, you can't really see all of it.
25th anniversary.
Oh, the 25th anniversary.
Oh look, I'm gonna look at the pins too.
Yeah, we also might get a pin I guess.
There's the pass holder one, okay, oh there it is, there's the logo I like, oh there's
a logo I like, Sherry.
That's what the pin Valerie's looking at looks like.
Okay Sherry, what are we doing now?
Yeah, we're walking around the countries.
Yep, pretty chill.
The lights are on in Chefs D'France, so it looks like just the lights are on, the restaurant
is still closed.
We're just making a stop into the Art of Disney store, they moved it to America and just looking
around, seeing some of the art, it's not that big in here, this is pretty much the America
store.
Oh look at that over there, the Snow White and the Pinocchio, look at how cute the little
Haunted Mansion figures are, little ghosts, the traveling ghosts.
I like the little dune buggies.
Sherry inspired me to put on the ears today because it matches, the cork board kind of
matches my pants.
I was nervous that they weren't going to match, but they do.
We are eating at this restaurant, it's called Garden Grill and it's really cool because
of these tables, as you guys can see.
So the tables like rotate, so this whole thing moves, it moves like to the left, so cool.
Oh it is moving a little bit, you guys can't really see it, that's so awesome.
The table just rotates and you get to see part of living with the land.
Hi Chippendale!
Okay so we are seated now and we got a salad, they serve things here family style.
So we got our salad, we got some bread there and I'm just now digging in, we're still rotating,
you can't really tell that we're moving because it's going super slow.
We have steak, we have turkey, we have dressing, we have like corn, it's like Thanksgiving
foods.
We have green beans, we have mashed potatoes and this is like kind of weird, they have
some goldfish on the mac and cheese, so that's very interesting.
But we're going to dig in, Valerie's taking some photos over there for Facebook, please
don't post that one Valerie, oh no no no.
The white chocolate one, oh my gosh, it's so pretty, oh my gosh, wow.
Yeah you can turn it, you can turn it.
We made our way back to the Riviera and I just wanted to do this quick little fan
to show you how beautiful it is at night, so pretty.
Okay I think I forgot to vlog this but Sherry got a white sangria, I got a cosmopolitan,
Valerie is finishing up a...
It's sort of like a Long Island iced tea.
Sort of like a Long Island iced tea.
It's very tasty.
Yeah we've been enjoying our little drinks, sorry I forgot to vlog but I did a little
boomerang on my Instagram story, Sherry's hair is looking crazier than ever.
Morning guys, welcome to day two of the vlog.
I'm actually wearing this white shirt again but I have my bathing suit underneath of it.
Oh, going down.
I'm wearing this as like a cover up because I didn't bring my other one but look at how
good Sherry looks.
Hello everyone.
She's got her Lilly Pulitzer, white pants, flip flops, girl, looking good, looking good.
We're going to get breakfast, Sherry tell the vlog what's going on.
Well we stood in line and waited and got how to use the mobile app for ordering and then
what I really had been desiring, fantasizing about were the mox and bagels and they put
it on the mobile app but they don't have it.
Sherry and I got some blueberry muffins and Valerie got a cinnamon roll but she already
has hers over there.
Okay so we made it to the pool, there's literally no one here so it's amazing because you know
social distancing to its finest because there's no one here.
I really want to get a cute picture in this little thing.
Overall, we got a nice little seat here and Sherry's got her towels.
You can see her walking over there.
Pretty cloudy out today.
Okay so we are getting ready to head out but we got all showered, clean, new masks, new
little outfits.
I'm wearing this outfit.
It's kind of like a tacky tourist looking thing but that's okay.
I really want to get a picture at the Tangled wall so we're going to hopefully get a good
photo there.
I don't know, I'm not wearing like the outfit I really want to be wearing for that but whatever.
It's fine.
It's going to be hot.
There's Sherry.
We're not looking that cute today are we?
We're not but it's hot out.
Valerie looks better though.
She looks good.
She got a new shirt.
I'll show you when she's done out of the bathroom.
This is Valerie's outfit.
She got a new shirt on.
Got her little blue shoes.
Yeah, very color coordinated.
Thank you.
Well actually my other mask was even better color coordinated.
Yeah.
There's the matching mask.
Matches very well with the little uh checkers.
Gingham as some might say.
This is a three bedroom.
Oh my gosh.
This is this is really like a house.
This is crazy.
Whoa.
Oh my gosh.
Look at the view.
Yes.
Wow.
Oh my goodness.
Here's the master bedroom.
Look.
Wow.
Look at how amazing this looks.
Look at this.
Oh there's me.
This is so pretty.
Oh my gosh.
Yes, I looked at it.
Oh my gosh.
Look at this.
Look at the body mirror.
That's crazy.
This is like um the tour of homes.
This is another bedroom.
This is bedroom number two.
It's right out there.
I know.
Out on the veranda.
There's a bathroom, another bathroom.
Very cool.
And then this is the third bedroom.
Wow.
So cool.
This is another door that leads into the three bedroom villa.
It looks similar to the other ones with the toilet, shower.
Wow.
This is so cool.
So pretty.
Okay, so we just got done taking photos at the Tangled backgrounds and stuff.
Valerie did such a good job.
She took my photo and Sherry's photo because on her work team, their team Tangled, so.
And then Valerie's going to get her picture somewhere, but I'm so happy with how they
turned out.
I mean, I don't think that this outfit is like my best outfit to wear for that, but you know,
it's what I packed and it was supposed to be really hot today.
Yeah, but the yellow looked good with the lantern.
Oh, that's good.
Thanks, Sherry.
We were gonna go ride the Skyliner and go to Epcot again to go to Eat at Canada, but
it's thundering, so they shut them down just for safety reasons.
So I think we're going to go to the outside bar and have some food.
Okay, so what did you guys get, Sherry?
It's baked brie.
Baked brie.
So it's like a cheesy type thing.
It's like cheese inside a puff pastry.
Interesting.
And there's a little bit of lettuce.
We're gonna figure it out.
Sherry got some chicken wings.
Valerie and Sherry got the same thing, actually.
So they got the chicken wings with, what is that?
Did we come to the conclusion what that was?
And then I got a kid's meal over here because I don't know why.
I just was feeling the kid's meal.
Fries, chicken tenders, and a little salad over here.
All right, so the Skyliners are back and open.
So we are going to ride over to Epcot now.
We made it to Epcot and we're in the Twining Tea Shop.
Sherry, have you made a selection?
Well, I like both of these.
I think Sherry's gonna get one of the teapots.
It's for her Christmas present.
Okay.
Sherry, which one did you pick?
I like that one too, but I like this one anyway.
Oh, that's nice.
I like the little gray awning and stuff on it.
I think that's cute.
Yeah.
It's only $65.
Very nice, very nice.
Just make sure that's the one you like.
Yeah, so we're kind of just walking around to all the shops and everything.
Whenever we take a stop or like look at something, I'll go along.
But other than that, we're just gonna walk around the world.
Right, Valerie?
That's right.
Just got my birthday button.
And we didn't know they still handed these out, but they do.
So just ask at a merchandise location.
I'm surprised, right, Sherry?
I didn't know that they were still doing that.
Yeah.
Okay, since I've been craving Starbucks, we are here.
We're gonna get some Starbucks.
I don't know if Sherry's gonna get anything.
I don't know.
Okay, so I ended up getting my perfect fall drink,
which is a chai tea latte with two pumps of pumpkin spice.
Sherry over there got a green tea frappe.
Valerie didn't get anything.
I thought it was really cute and nice that they wrote happy birthday on my little cup.
This is like the top floor bar and restaurant called Topolino's.
The three of us can sit here at the bar.
Yeah, I guess so.
I don't know even know if I'm like saying what makes sense, but whatever.
So I got this really nice mixed cocktail.
I have no idea what is really in this.
It has like lemon, agave, grey goose.
There's some raspberry.
Really like lemony.
Like she said it was really refreshing.
Look, she put an orange.
Sherry got a beer.
I got a Cronenberg.
It's a French beer.
And then Valerie got a white wine over there.
This is what the rooftop looks like.
It is so pretty.
I had to show you guys.
Just so stunning.
You get a very good view of everything surrounding the Riviera Resort.
Oh my gosh.
Like look at how beautiful this is, guys.
You can actually see Old Town.
This is what the rooftop looks like.
But let me show you like all the way over there in the distance.
You can see Old Town, which is really funny.
Old Town Kissimmee.
If you see it in the distance, I'll zoom in as much as I can.
But you can see the little specks right there.
And this resort is Coronado.
No, not Coronado.
It is Caribbean Beach Club.
Down there you can see the pool area.
There's a few swimmers down there.
The pool closes at 10.
I just had to show you guys.
It's so gorgeous up here.
So we've come into the gift shop.
And we just came across this NBA merchandise.
Look at the little backpack.
That's like a basketball.
We got basketball ears.
We got a basketball spirit jersey.
It says make history.
Of course, we got the masks over there.
We got games here.
Here's the Riviera Mickey and Minnie.
So cute.
How cute are these ears though?
Riviera ears.
Super fun.
Love the pattern.
Okay, so I picked out my souvenir.
I love 3D things like lenticulars.
So I need to add this to my collection.
I have so many from the Disney resorts.
So I'm going to get this Riviera one.
Thought I'd show you guys the cool Halloween merchandise.
So we have some popcorn.
Little buckets.
Light up necklaces.
Super fun stuff.
Oh, this is the H2O hair care lotion.
Stuff that my parents like.
Oh, look at this little backpack.
They still have these, Sherry.
Okay, I see one of these in our future, Sherry.
I think I like the Pluto one the best.
But they have the Haunted Mansion.
Okay, guys.
So we made it back to the hotel room.
I'm just coming on to end the vlog because we're just leaving early tomorrow morning
because Sherry and I and Valerie have to work tomorrow.
Nothing special.
We're just driving back home.
Gonna work.
Everything like that.
So I hope you guys enjoyed this video.
Make sure to give it a thumbs up if you did.
