Trip Report Doing it Live One Last Time! It's Our "Let's Try Some New Things" Summer Adventure to Disney World

Since its already after nine and we are getting up at 2:45 for our drive from the Lehigh Valley to the Philadelphia airport, I figured I'd get the beginning details of our trip posted.

Our flight is scheduled for 6:50 am arriving in Orlando at 9:20. Ive been looking all week on the SWA site, and it has shown this flight arriving early each morning this week!

Our first resort is AKL. We plan on dropping off the kid's carry on bags at bell services, trying to check-in, then heading straight to the MK. We have FP+ for Peter Pan at 12:30, followed by lunch at the Plaza at 1. After lunch, we have FP+ for SDMT and Space Mountain. Crystal and I were able to ride the mine train twice during the 24 hours in May, but that was an adults only trip (really wish I had done a live TR for that trip), so this will be a first for Brayden and Madelyn.

We have a week long stay planned at AKL before moving to GF for a week and finishing up a relaxing resort only stay at YC. We never just did resort only activities in WDW, so this will be a first for us.

Other firsts this trip will be both water parks, La Nouba, and Harambe Nights. We also have The Frozen activities planned in HS.

We are trying a few new restaurants as well. As I stated in the countdown thread, we have no plans on a trip to WDW or DL anytime soon. We really want to see and do many of the things we always talk about, but somehow never end up doing.

Have a good night everyone, and I'll be posting as time allows in the morning. Really excited for this trip!

Since we were ahead of what we had planned, we had some time before the mine train. So it was off to see Belle. We hadn't done this in a few trips. The kids didn't seem to thrilled at first. Madelyn and I got picked to help. Brayden wasn't interested this time. He's 11 now, and I can see the boy wants to think he's beyond some of this stuff. In fact, he doesn't want to do a kids club while we are here this summer! He usually loves this! Anyway, on to the pictures.

Wow Coach.... only a week in and I'm ready to drop over dead from envy! You are having the exact trip that I hope to have someday. My last two trips have been "wake up early and spend every waking minute at the park!" And have never been able to enjoy the little things like sleeping in, or resort pools, or doing laundry. Lol
Anyway, have a great rest of your trip! Hopefully it doesn't fly by the way it seems this past week already was!
