828: From STK Stress, to Jollywood Nights Success

We’re back and diving headfirst into the whirlwind that was our Thanksgiving weekend—because what better way to jump back in than with a little chaos, a little sparkle, and a whole lot of Disney?We kick things off at Disney Springs with a quick update on the brand-new Disney Drop Shop, a permanent addition to the Marketplace Co-Op that’s basically a treasure chest for collectors. Blind boxes, Cosbi figures, Pop Mart surprises… if it’s tiny, adorable, and dangerously addictive, it’s probably in this shop.From there, we slide over to STK Orlando for a lunch that… well… didn’t exactly steal our hearts. We break down what we ordered—from the Filet Sandwich and Wagyu Burger to the towering Parmesan Truffle Fries—and talk about why this meal left us scratching our heads more than licking our fingers.Then it’s time to trade “meh” for “merry” as we step into the glitz and glow of Disney’s Jollywood Nights at Hollywood Studios. We cover everything from early entry strategy to the incredible entertainment lineup, including Disney Holidays in Hollywood, the Nightmare Before Christmas Sing-Along, and the stunning Glisten! ice-skating show. We explore special themed areas like Holiday Fiesta en la Calle, the Pixar Disco, and the always-fabulous Tip-Top Club, plus rare character sightings like Partysaurus Rex and Bing Bong!With festive snacks, low wait times on major attractions, and a party atmosphere that blends retro glam with Disney whimsy, Jollywood Nights truly shines.Join us as we recap the highs, lows, laughs, and magic of a very busy holiday weekend.🎉Plan Your Next Adventure with MEI-TravelLet the magic start before your trip even begins!
