All of that and more is coming up in this episode of The Florida Project!

Small Topics
- As we all know, Epcot celebrated its 35th anniversary earlier this month. As such, there was much exclusive merchandise released to honor the occasion. Pins, shirts, magic bands, Figment Funko Pop, and more. What exclusive piece of Walt Disney World merchandise (real or not) would you be willing to stand in line for a couple of hours in order to purchase?
- FastPass+ is great addition to your Disney vacation, but it also has some issues. If you could make one change to FastPass+ to make it attraction queueing better, which of the following would you choose? 1) Get rid of FastPass+ altogether, 2) Limit the amount of FastPass+ availability by charging a premium for it, 3) Upon park entry, every guest gets a randomly selected Golden FastPass for one D or E attraction, in additional to their previously selected FastPasses, 4) Go to an all FastPass+ system where reservations are required, and no standby line.
- What is your idea locale for a non-Disney vacation? A sunny beach, a snowy cabin in the mountains, a cross-country road trip, or a visit to a non-Disney theme park?
