    Hello it is October 29 and snowy here in central PA,

    I enjoyed the video today seeing all the people in the background wearing shorts and no coats while here it is snowwing like crazy. You would think
    we are getting ready for Thanksgiving instead of Halloween.
    The food looked delicious and Andrew did another great job. He is a keeper!

    I have a question for you: Lets say I was at DW and saw you making one of your
    videos how would I go about approaching you? Do I just wave or yell hello or wait until you are finished?

    Hi Cathy,

    Thanks for watching the videos and leaving your comments!

    You’re right, Andrew does a fantastic job!

    To answer your question, since I’m easily distracted 😉 and we try to do everything in one take as much as possible, if you see us around the park, just hang out for a bit till we’re done shooting then say hi. We usually stop pretty often, so it shouldn’t take too long and that way we get to finish with out too much editing for Andrew!

    I forgot to answer Rhino Ken’s question so my favorite Pixar movie has to be Toy Story. I just love those characters and the song “You’ve Got a Friend in Me.”

    Believe me, Rick, Ken, and Andrew, if I could, I would be in WDW with you guys right now. Sigh.
    Anyway, great fun watching you guys get “happy” in Epcot. I’d like to see an episode on getting full on as little money as possible. How about that for a challenge?
    I think Monsters Inc. Is my favorite Pixar movie. Maybe I’m just partial to Monsters right now because it’s almost Halloween? Or maybe it’s that little cutie, Boo. 🙂
    Have a great Halloween, guys and fellow viewers. See you next video.

    Hey Peggy,

    I think that would make a great challenge, we could do the fisherman’s pie, it’s hearty, and the cheese soup from Canada, and let’s see the lettuce wrap from S. Korea, oh the possibilities!

    See you next time!

    Hey Rick.
    Even in October, Florida looks beautiful. We got snow unfortunately. I am not ready for snow yet. All of the food you sampled looked scrumpious. The maple glazed salmon grabbed my attention. I enjoyed salmon with a macadamia nut butter sause, topped with the juice of a lemon the Rainforest Cafe. It was absoululty fantstic. Anyway, my favorite Pixar film is the 2006 movie Cars. So have a good week, and… Happy Halloween. Oh and thanks Andrew. You do a good job working the camera.

    Thanks Nicklas, that salmon sounds great, will have to check that out at Rain Forest, that would make a great video!

    Always great hearing from you!

    Hey Rick, Ken, and Andrew,

    I enjoyed the tour of the Food and Wine Festival. I sure wood like to bump into you guys the next time I am at WDW. That would be a lot of fun. My favorite Pixar movie is “UP”. It touches the travler in me. I am always dreaming of places to go to and things to see. I buy a lottery ticket and start planning my itinerary–flights, hotels, and the things I want to see.

    Rick, your videos are always a breath of fresh air for me. They give me something to hope for and to look forward to.

    See you next week.

    Bob

    Hey Bob, thanks for leaving the comments, really appreciate your kind words!

    Would love to bump into you too, come on down!

    I love the movie UP also, bound to be a classic!

    Love your video tours of WDW. Since I only get there on average every 8 years (way too long) it is nice to have a podcast show the video along with covering the topic of the day. Keep up the great work and kudos to your ever evolving podcast. The videos help fill in the gaps between trips and I almost feel like I am there with you on your Food & Wine reviews. Just can’t smell or taste the food though.

    Favorite Pixar movie is a toss up between Toy Story and Up.

    Hey Scott!

    Great to hear from you! Thanks for leaving your kind comments, most appreciated!

    I do wish we had smell-evision and taste-evision would make the show a lot more fun and interesting!

    SO great to see you again, Rick! Really enjoyed this episode – I won’t make it out to F&W this year, so seeing this was terrific. I am drooling a little on my keyboard! Andrew, as always you’ve done a amazing job! (And I would have passed on the “honey wine” too!).

    Ken, I am checking out your site now at http://www.rhinowinegear.com/ – You have a great selection and really surprised at how reasonable your prices are! The discount you are offering is a great surprise too – perfect for Christmas gifts! Thank you!!

    For anyone even considering the ABD Backstage Magic trip – DO IT! I was able to go on this adventure a couple of years ago and it is not overstating to say that it was life-changing. If you are a Disney fan, or even a fanatic like me, it is an amazing time and nobody does it better than ABD! I am trying to budget for another ABD trip (have you seen the Greece offering? wow!!) but am considering this tour again because it is so fabulous! Click on the banner and get some information – you won’t regret it.

    Oh, btw, I love Pixar and especially the Toy Story movies!

    Hope to see you soon!

    Hey Lynne,

    Great to hear from you, thanks for watching the show!

    Thanks for the insight on the Backstage Magic trip, looking so forward to that, I know everyone is just going to love it, I can’t wait!

    Can’t wait to see you again in the Big World!
