  • EP 54 - Virgin Voyages Brilliant Lady in Alaska: What We Loved and What We’d Change
    2026/09/10
    We spent seven nights sailing Alaska aboard Virgin Voyages’ Brilliant Lady, and this cruise felt very different from our previous Virgin experience in the Caribbean.In Episode 54, we’re talking about the ship itself and what it was actually like to experience Virgin Voyages in Alaska. We get into our Sea Terrace cabins, embarkation in Seattle, dining, entertainment, Scarlet Night, Glacier Day, wildlife spotting, and the little things Brilliant Lady does differently.There were some fantastic meals, a few food misses, dinners that lasted longer than we expected, one very useful naturalist, a whole lot of blankets, and a moment when Meg opened the curtains and suddenly there were humpback whales and dolphins everywhere.Plus, we share a couple of things we wish we had known before disembarkation.Would we sail Brilliant Lady again?Absolutely.Would we do Alaska again?That answer might be even more enthusiastic.Next episode, we’ll get off the ship and talk about Ketchikan, Sitka, Prince Rupert, and the excursions we chose.

  • EP 53 - Disney Wish from New York, Lakeshore Lodge & a Disneyland Christmas Hot Take
    2026/09/07
    Disney Cruise Line just dropped its fall 2027 and spring 2028 itineraries, and there are some big changes coming.The Disney Wish is sailing from New York with cruises to Canada and Bermuda, new Caribbean options are coming from San Juan, and Disney is even sending the Magic through the Panama Canal. Meg breaks down the itineraries that caught her attention, including the New York cruise she already tried, and failed, to book.Then it’s back to Walt Disney World for a closer look at Disney Lakeshore Lodge, opening July 1, 2027. We’re talking lake houses overlooking Bay Lake, studios designed for two guests, new restaurants and lounges, and why this resort may be another sign that Disney knows adults traveling without kids are here to stay.Plus, there’s a new adults-only-after-9 PM spot coming to Disney’s BoardWalk, a Diamond Horseshoe pop-up menu, and a trip out west to talk Christmas at Disneyland.And Meg has an opinion: Disneyland might actually do Christmas better than Walt Disney World, especially if you don’t want to buy an extra party ticket.

  • EP 52 - D23 2026: Villains, Monsters, Cars & Disney’s Next Big Era
    2026/08/27
    Disney dropped a mountain of parks news at D23, and some of these announcements are much bigger than they first sound.In Episode 52 of Adventures of Two Grey Mice, Meg and Rob break down the biggest announcements coming to Walt Disney World and Disneyland.We’re talking Villains Land and its surprisingly dark backstory, why Piston Peak might actually make sense in Frontierland, major updates for Spaceship Earth and Carousel of Progress, the new Monstropolis at Hollywood Studios, Encanto and Indiana Jones coming to Animal Kingdom, Disneyland’s first Coco attraction and the expansion of Avengers Campus.And because this is us, we also get into the important questions. Does Cars belong in Frontierland? Who should narrate Spaceship Earth? Does the burning Rome smell HAVE to stay? And exactly how rough is Disney planning to make that Avengers ride?There is a lot coming to the Disney parks. Some of it we cannot wait for. Some of it raises questions. And some of it might finally fix areas that desperately needed help.

  • EP 51 - Seattle Before Alaska: What We Loved, What We’d Do Differently
    2026/08/17
    Before boarding Virgin Voyages for Alaska, we gave ourselves three days to explore Seattle. And somewhere between a forgotten wallet, a not-so-slight hill, an underground city, incredible glass art, a ridiculous number of breweries, and one very tiny park with a very big view, Seattle completely won us over.In Episode 51 of Adventures of Two Grey Mice, we’re sharing what we did, what surprised us, what was absolutely worth the time, and what we’d change if we planned the trip again. We talk about Seattle’s light rail and monorail, Pioneer Square, the underground tour, Chihuly Garden and Glass, Ballard Locks, Fremont, Pike Place Market, Kerry Park, our brewery hopping adventures, and how we spent embarkation day before our Alaska cruise.If you’re thinking about spending a few days in Seattle before an Alaska cruise, this is the episode we wish we’d had before we went.Flytographer - Link Here Get $25 off your first shoot.Our Youtube Channel- https://www.youtube.com/@twogreymice

  • EP 50 - Cruising Is Changing: Alaska Crowds, Private Islands, and the Real Cost of Your Cruise
    2026/07/10
    Cruising is booming, but that growth is changing where ships go, how they are built, and what passengers experience once they arrive.In this solo episode, Meg looks beyond the latest cruise headlines to explore two of the biggest trends shaping the industry. Alaska cruising has grown dramatically, bringing more ships, longer seasons, new ports, and concerns about overcrowding in small communities. Meanwhile, Caribbean cruise lines are racing to create bigger and more elaborate private islands and beach clubs.Meg also shares what she will be watching during her upcoming Virgin Voyages Alaska cruise, why choosing the right ship matters just as much as choosing the itinerary, and how added costs such as gratuities can change the real price of a vacation.Plus, Carnival Pride is back in Baltimore, giving East Coast travelers another way to cruise without flying to Florida.

  • EP 48 - Boardwalk's New Bar, a Brand New DVC Resort, and the Discounts You've Been Waiting For
    2026/06/26
    Big things are happening down in Disney World, and Meg is breaking it all down solo this week.First up, the Boardwalk is finally getting some love. Jelly Rolls has moved out, and a new waterfront lounge called Hurley Burley is moving in. Family friendly trivia and games by day, then 21 and over live music and coastal cocktails by night. Meg has thoughts on whether this is the grown up evening spot the Boardwalk has been missing. Plus Basin is bringing in handcrafted bath goodies (yes, you can press your name into a bar of soap), and a new quick service is on the way.Then there's Lakeshore Lodge, the brand new DVC resort opening summer 2027 on Bay Lake. Think zero entry pools, a lazy river, waterfront lake houses, and an adults only pool where you can watch Magic Kingdom fireworks from the hot tub. Meg covers the good, the gorgeous, and the one transportation catch you'll want to know about before you fall in love.And the part you've actually been waiting for. The end of year discounts are finally here. Up to 25% off rooms with the Disney Plus Perks deal (yes, even Thanksgiving week), plus a separate room only discount up to 20% that runs right up to Christmas. Meg walks you through who qualifies, the dates that matter, and how to play the calendar so you save the most.Quick, packed, and exactly what you need to know. Hit play.
