From the Bob Barley studio in Orlando, Florida, you're listening to The Dizz Unplugged.

Hello and welcome to The Dizz Unplug Roundtable discussion for the week of May 11th, 2011

from Orlando, Florida. I'm your host Pete Warner, joined at the table this week

by my good friends, Walter Eccles, Kathy Whirlings, Scott Smith, Kevin Close, and John Meijai.

In this episode, Scott, Walter, and I will be discussing our recent stay at Animal Kingdom

Lodge. This has been a resort I have been trying to get back to now for, I'd say a couple of years

and every time we book a reservation something would happen and I'd have to cancel.

And so I was really happy this one was able to go off and wanted Scott to experience a hotel

review. I wanted him to get more involved in doing some of these and so I wanted to kind of step

him through. So we were joined by Scott and his lovely girlfriend, Christina, who Walter and I

just fell like madly in gay love with. And so we're going to talk about that. I was able to get

us upgraded to concierge. So we're going to talk a little bit about concierge as well.

And the sunrise safari that is only available to concierge guests at Animal Kingdom Lodge,

very popular tour, apparently very popular tour. Did you see the travel and leisure magazine

picked the top 500 hotels in the world and that in the central Florida area in the

Animal Kingdom Lodge was picked as the top? Wow. That's above the rids and everything else.

I, well, you'll hear in the review, but I'm inclined to agree. I'm inclined to agree. So,

but we're going to let Scott take it and we're going to jump in and we want to put him on the spot

and make him do his first review and hold you with everyone so that you can be criticized

openly on the board. Fantastic. Go ahead. Sounds good. Turn on the spotlights. Yeah, great.

Well, obviously I'm not as experienced at doing this kind of thing. So, and obviously,

neither is Christina. So the two of us just walking into the lobby of this place were blown away.
