John & Louie’s Big Adventures

John & Louie’s Big Adventures

Luxury Travel, Disney tips, Lifestyle. We’re two former Disney World entertainers still having "big adventures" after 44 years together. Join us (and our dogs) as we share our travels and exploits!
Both of us spent our 20s as working actors in Hollywood before moving to Orlando to work at the Walt Disney World resort as performers. One of us is retired, sort of, and the other works as an author (“SERVICE is a SUPERPOWER") and keynote speaker.
We’re inspired by Ben and David's fabulous cruise videos @Cruisewith, and also the sweet, charming adventures of Charlie and Will @charlieandwillofficial. We hope you enjoy our adventures and tips from places like France, Disney parks, beach resorts, themed restaurants, movie conventions, Vegas and sometimes just a lark with our Havanese fur babies, Daphne and Bijou. We have other dreams and trips planned that we hope you'll find, well, entertaining at least.

Please "like and subscribe"-THANK YOU!

    I was on the same cruise 3 weeks ago.. the historical sites were jam packed with people - barely any room to walk. The Ephesus tour was great - but the “5 star” hotel they took us to was trash- food was beneath a days in. Just saying.

    I discovered your channel by chance when I was searching for video reviews of The Don Cesar in St. Pete Beach. I quickly discovered that your vlog was not only informative but hugely entertaining thanks to your warm & inviting personalities. I shared your video with my wife and our teenage daughter. We have since binge-watched ALL of your videos and particularly enjoy the sea cruise ones. We all agree you are an adorable couple and were delighted to discover you’d been together for 44 years! Our daughter Caroline was so impressed with you two that she admitted to us she would love hanging out with you! That is quite a compliment from a 16 y.o. teenager. It goes without saying we are now subscribers and look forward to each new video with great anticipation. Please keep sharing your wonderful adventures with us and we will be thrilled to continue to watch and live vicariously through you (LOL). Warmest regards to you both. P.S. Daphne & Bijou are also absolutely adorable and we also enjoy seeing them in your vlogs.❤

    P.S. Tell Caroline to look for one of our upcoming vlogs featuring a trip with our 16 y/o nephew to the beach with our dogs. We were shocked with how much he'd grown and suddenly, to his surprise, he became popular with girls his age. Grateful we could send him home in one piece. Also coming is a trip to...Bora Bora in a couple of weeks. Thank you again, Louie

    Your butler comment hit me suddenly, as I heard this exact story from another person's video. They ran into this rather aloof person who said "Oh you won't see much of me, I'm the head butler etc., etc., and it turns out that isn't supposed to be that way." I do know they recently returned butler service to the sky suites after having removed it, I'm not sure what's going on but I think there is a level or "Oh I moved up a bit and don't have to be around all that much." That really isn't the case. I hope they fix it. I've done many early January cruises and I find them fabulous!

    Robert, at this point the plant/bowl thing is a ridiculous source of joy for me. I’ve checked the pics of the cabins on the Celebrity Ascent on the Website and the planter is on the coffee table but the dreaded big bowl is nowhere to be seen. Obviously! Who knows when those showed up. HAHAHAHA! If you want another decorating laugh watch our cruise vlog of our Celebrity Suite Cabin in the Summit. More vases, planters and bowls than HomeGoods!!!

It’s on ARTLIST, the song is called CASSEROLE and the “album” it’s on is called THE ORIGINAL ORCHESTRA: AN EVENING WITH ZIV MORAN. I really like the music on there by Ziv Moran and have used many of (his?) (their?) songs on other vlogs. Hope this helps. 😊
