Welcome back, everybody, to this week's episode of the DCL Duo podcast. And this week, we have joining us a repeat guest, Justin, from Adventure is Out There Travel. Welcome, Justin. Thanks for having me again. It's an honor. Oh, it's so much fun talking to you, Justin, and catching up. And so you and your family took a trip down to the parks here

0:42.1

recently over New Year's Eve, essentially, right after Christmas, over New Year's Eve, so that

0:46.0

week between Christmas and New Year's, which is usually a kind of a fun time to be at the parks, I think.

0:50.8

But we're going to talk through your trip down there. You were headed from what balmy temperatures in Illinois to the cold, cold weather of Florida. Yes. And you know,

1:01.1

I like cold weather. Illinois, you get all four seasons and hopefully you can enjoy all of them,

That wasn't a thought of ours. And you are right. We actually were scheduled to meet you, not really meet you, but be in the parks from December 18th to Christmas Eve originally,

1:45.4

but we did at the end of November, early December, all four of us had COVID. We had two family

1:52.7

members test positive, obviously for everybody's sake, rescheduled. And everybody got through

1:58.4

with very mild symptoms. So we got real lucky with that.

2:01.6

You flew down.

2:02.4

What was MCO like when you got there?

2:04.6

I've seen different reactions to the airport.

2:06.6
