Disney magic doesn’t have to come with a sky-high price tag! In this episode of Rope Drop and Run, we’re sharing our Scale-Back Strategy—our ideas for spending less at Walt Disney World without sacrificing the experiences that make a Disney vacation so magical. From getting there and where you stay to park days, food, souvenirs, and those tempting Disney extras, we’re looking at where you can cut back, where it might be worth the splurge, and how a few smart choices can help stretch your Disney dollars further. Because sometimes, scaling back a little means you can make the magic happen a little more often!

We’re back with Part 2 of our Summer Walt Disney World Trip Report! Join us as we relive Molly’s first mind-blowing adventures in Galaxy’s Edge, take on Rise of the Resistance and the new Muppets Rock ’n’ Roller Coaster, survive approximately ALL the barbecue, and attempt the ultimate Drinking Around the World challenge at Epcot (spoiler: we did not make it around!). Add torrential rain, broken shoes, questionable margaritas, delicious snacks, and a few Disney dining hits and misses, and you’ve got one unforgettable trip. Plus, we wrap things up with our Great Big Beautiful Updates—and start dreaming about a whole-family Disney adventure in 2028!

Come along with us for Part 1 of our latest Walt Disney World adventure—with our niece Molly joining the fun! From surviving the Florida heat at Typhoon Lagoon and discovering some Disney dining favourites (and disappointments!) to a monorail crawl that didn’t quite go according to plan, Guardians of the Galaxy, rope dropping Magic Kingdom, and getting dressed up for Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party, this trip had a little bit of everything. And just when things get really good… we’re leaving you with a fireworks cliffhanger! Tune in for Part 2 to find out what happened next!
