-The Disney Exchange is David Hodges, Lisa Green, and me, Nicholas Maglio
-Main Topic: The Best in the Lands
-We start with a shout out and Lisa has to reign us in, before we quickly (for us) get to our main topic, where David, Lisa, and I discuss our favorite attractions, shops, food, details, etc. in the lands of the Magic Kingdom.
-We start with Main Street, and I ask if seeing Cinderella Castle ever gets old?
-We go clockwise through Adventureland, and Dave and I disagree, not surprisingly on whether or not one place or another had Citrus Swirls in the past, and I think we both were confused! This is what it is like to grow old. Aloha Isle did have Citrus Swirl. Dave, I apologize?
-We very surprisingly veer off topic before going on to Frontierland.
-We may discuss this in a future episode.
-In Liberty Square we argue over the differences between Ravens and Crows.
-Sarah McLachlin, just…Sarah McLachlin.
-Off to Fantasyland.
-Dave has grown, and his favorite ride is no longer Winnie the Pooh! Will Pooh forgive him?
-Finally, Tomorrowland.
-The Wheel of Distiny topic- The most disgusting thing we’ve eaten at Walt Disney World.

Ok….I usually agree with Nick most of the time……but this show…I have to totally agree with Dave on food in Adventureland. I like Dole Whip, but my favorite is Citrus Swirl. A clarification for Nick. The old location of Sunshine Tree Terrace is where the Citrus Swirl used to be but is now Aloha Isle. Dole Whip is so popular, and lines were so long, they moved it to the Sunshine Tree Terrace location due to size. Citrus Swirl was never available at Aloha Isle. Other thoughts on this are that they changed places to accommodate construction — it is believed this happened for an upcoming Jungle Cruise restaurant. Very much agree with Lisa about Space Mountain. I can’t do it anymore….every time I have done it over the last 5 years, I am in pain. Must be something about getting older??? Lisa, was your entree at Artist Point the Cedar Plank Salmon? That is what they are famous for, and I have had it several times………never had a problem. (the cost is $41.00) That really surprises me. Hopefully with some changes, this may not happen for you again. Great show again gang!! Looking forward to next week!
Kris - It was not the Salmon at Artist Point - it was some other fish. I’ve looked at the menu, but am still not 100% sure exactly what it was. We WANT to love Artist Point, but it’s been the single biggest Disney dining disappointment we’ve ever had (twice). Maybe we’ll give it one more chance after the changes. Another thought: The one time I tried a Dole Whip, I waited in a super long line out in the scorching sun…I’m convinced this is how Disney gets most guests to love this frozen product - they’re so hot and sweaty by the time they get their order, everyone’s grateful for a cold refreshment of any kind and it SEEMS like the most wonderful food in the World. Thanks for listening!
