This week on the Geekin’ on Walt Disney World Podcast, I’m joined by our good friend and Travelin’ Tiara herself — Auntie Judy!Judy and Ken joined Margita and me for an unforgettable September stay along the monorail loop — including first-time experiences at the Grand Floridian Villas, Bay Lake Tower, and the brand-new Polynesian DVC Tower!
It’s a fun-filled episode packed with resort-hopping stories, dining adventures, and even a wild evacuation moment on Ratatouille that only a true Geek could appreciate!
🌴 This Week’s Episode
Judy shares her unique take on our four-resort “monorail crawl” — where we switched rooms several times and sampled some of Disney’s finest DVC resorts.
You’ll hear about:
* The charm of the Grand Floridian Villas (even amid construction)
* Bay Lake Tower favorites and those classic fireworks views
* First impressions of the Polynesian Tower’s gorgeous interiors
* Why she ranks Whispering Canyon, Hollywood & Vine, and Coral Reef among her top dining experiences
* And that unforgettable “Ratatouille evacuation” story at Epcot that turned into a geeky highlight of the trip!
Judy also shares her favorite magical moments — from meeting up with fellow Geeks in the parks to why she always reminds travelers to “be flexible” and enjoy the magic as it comes.
