Hey everyone, I’m Mike, she’s Sophie, that’s Brenda, and he’s Grogu, and we’re On the Road with Mickey! This is episode 174 and today our feature topic is Mike’s WDW FAM Recap! Grab your favorite beverage, sit back, and relax, and tell us in the comments below what you think! Here’s the rundown of what we talked about:

• Cheddar from the Big Cheese
  
  • Brenda: We here at On the Road with Mickey would like to take a moment to salute Dorothy “Pat” Rudd, who was honored as the Veteran of the Day at the Magic Kingdom during the Flag Retreat on June 7th. At 101 years old, Pat is a World War II veteran for the US Navy, and to this day can still be found volunteering at local VA hospitals in Central Florida.
    
  • Sophie: Coming to Disney+ August 23rd: Star Wars: Ahsoka!
    
  • Mike: Sad news out of Animal Kingdom Park as we learned that Dugan, one of the white rhinos at the park, passed away on June 1st. He was born in 1995. He is survived by Ranger, Mylo, and Logan.

• Feature Topic: Mike’s WDW FAM Trip Recap
  
  • Before we get started on Mike’s recap of the Pixie Vacations WDW FAM that he was on, we have a couple of answers on favorite quick service restaurants at the resorts:
    
    • Sheila listed her favorites: “Value Resort – I have never stayed at one, but, I did visit you and have breakfast at the POP once and the waffle bounty platter is great. Moderate – Center town market has some great choices. The avocado toast is amazing. Deluxe – This one is hard because there are a lot of great choices; but I have to go with Riviera Primo Piatto. They have the best croque madame and I like to dip mine in berry jam. I only listed breakfast because when I do stay at a resort that is when I eat quick service.
      
    • Robin said: “I’ve got to say breakfast at Riverside is my favorite hands down! Was that what you were looking for? That side dish of delicious granddaughters was the icing on my Mickey waffle!
      
    
    
  
  
• This Day in Disney History for June 19:
  
  • The birthday of Sophie, and also of Michael Broggie!
    
  
  
• Disney Who’s Who Character
  
  • Pascal from Tangled
    
  
  
• A Little Bit of Walt:
  
  • “One of the greatest satisfactions in our work here at the studio is the warm relationship that exists within our cartoon family. Mickey, Pluto, Goofy and the whole gang have always been a lot of fun to work with. But like many large families, we have a problem child. You’re right, it’s Donald Duck.” — Walt Disney
