0:14.7

Hello and welcome to WW Prep to Go, re-talk strategy, and ideas for people planning their Disney Rail trips.

0:20.1

I'm your host Shannon Albert from WDW Prep's.com thank you for being here for episode 459 today is another

0:27.1

Disneyland trip report and this time it's with Kim who recently went on her first Disneyland trip

0:33.3

always excited about that I love hearing people's impressions of Disney World, Disney

1:44.9
