There’s something really special about seeing Walt Disney World through fresh eyes… And in Episode 661 of the Geekin’ on Walt Disney World Podcast , we get to do exactly that. This week, I’m joined by Nick and Carlin — who just wrapped up an incredible 19-day Disney trip with their seven-month-old twins, Simon and Wiley Jean . And let me tell you… These two may have been the most popular Geeks at the entire meetup weekend This episode is about more than just a trip report… It’s about family, perspective, and what Disney means across generations .

TravelinTiaras@gmail.com Bonus: There are some great Summer travel discounts available right now , so it’s a perfect time to start planning! Resort Hopping with Twins Nick and Carlin stayed at multiple resorts during their trip, each offering something different: All-Star Movies – a great value option (but tight with twins!) Pop Century – perfect for Skyliner access with a stroller Coronado Springs (Club Level) – upgraded to a one-bedroom suite with cribs (major win!) Caribbean Beach – great location, but a reminder to request first floor rooms with strollers One big takeaway: If you’re traveling with little ones, space + convenience matters more than ever . Dining Highlights They had some fantastic meals (and a few honest takes): Standout Experiences Narcoossee’s – fireworks views + great food Topolino’s Terrace – a must-do (especially the sole + escargot!) Crystal Palace – surprisingly great food + amazing character interactions Yak & Yeti (to-go!) – tuna nachos + margaritas by the water Honest Reviews Chef Mickey’s – fun for characters, not for the food Summer House on the Lake – beautiful, but still searching for that “wow” meal Traveling to Disney with Infants (Real Tips) This is where the episode really shines. Nick and Carlin share real-world tips from doing Disney with twins: Pre-pack and organize your stroller setup Bring MORE supplies than you think (especially pacifiers!) Use rider swap — but know it works differently at each ride Take advantage of Disney’s baby amenities (cribs, pack & plays, etc.) Consider room size — family suites can be game changers Don’t overplan — flexibility is everything One big insight: Disney might actually be one of the easiest places to travel with babies — because of how accommodating everything is. Favorite Moments from the Trip There were so many special moments, but a few really stood out: Seeing the twins react to characters for the first time A magical fireworks moment from the hub grass after park close A sunset safari with a roaring lion at Animal Kingdom Watching the babies take in shows like Festival of the Lion King That first “Disney awareness” moment — when everything starts clicking And for me personally… Holding Wiley during the trip and thinking about my upcoming granddaughter… That was a moment I won’t forget. What This Trip Was Really About This episode isn’t just about traveling with kids. It’s about something bigger. It’s about: Seeing Disney through a new lens Creating memories that come full circle And realizing that this experience keeps evolving through every stage of life As Nick said… These might be moments the kids won’t remember… But we will .
