    Trip Report Choir Tour!

    Good morning from Orlando! I'm currently eating breakfast before we head out to Salvation Army for the day. Things have been going so fast that by the time we get back to our hotel rooms all I can do is fall into bed. Yesterday we got to do a lot of neat stuff. We had a concert right next to the...

    Trip Report Choir Tour!

    Hello from somewhere outside of Atlanta! We've been on the road for eight hours, most of it stuck in horrendous traffic (we're about two to three hours behind schedule ). But besides that, we're doing okay. The Chick Fil A that I am currently sitting in is our lunch stop for the day. I...

    Trip Report Choir Tour!

    Hey all! I haven't been around for a while because A. school, B. not on vacation, and C. not in Florida. But, in the next two days, I'm leaving for week long tour in Orlando with my choir, culminating in a trip to Magic Kingdom on the last day! So even though only one day of this will be...

    Rope Drop or Late at Night? Or Both?

    Oh man, I discovered the wonderful benefits of being able to do both on my last trip. Getting up early for rope drop, going back to the hotel and taking a nap from around 1 to four, and then going back until closing. But I could definitely get why some people would have to choose. If you're not...

    Trip Report The 8 Year Joke

    Hey everyone! This is my last TR content post :( But I'm already planning a return trip with siblings sometime in the future (like, five years from now), so I'm sure we'll be doing this again! Alright, our last day was split between Hollywood Studios and a positively magical last night at The...

    Trip Report The 8 Year Joke

    Aw, thanks guys! Yeah, I don't usually go in for M&G's but that Ariel was seriously so fun, she did an amazing job. It was so funny, I was in a production of Once Upon A Mattress a couple of months ago and when Aurora came over, she had us all do the little hands touching pose thing that she...

    Favorite YouTube channels

    I personally really love the Tim Trackers. They don't do exclusively theme park stuff, but they do spend a lot of time at Universal and Disney. If you're too whimpy for Halloween Horror Nights but still want to see what's up, they do a great job giving you a peak into that :) But their Disney...

    Trip Report The 8 Year Joke

    So after two hectic days at the World, and two even more hectic driving days, it was time for a day off. We woke up that morning and headed over to the Poly for something I personally had been looking forward to for quite a while: Tonga Toast! I'm definitely a little bit of a foodie and I'd...

    Great Movie Ride? Why the hype recently?

    Yeah, I was a little shocked that I actually had to get a Fastpass to ride this in a reasonable amount of time a few weeks ago. I'm glad it's getting some attention though. Also the fact there's like five and a half rides at this park makes a big difference.

    The Magic Of Disney Animation closing?

    Man, I know Tower of Terror and Rock n Roller Coaster are huge anchor rides, and that Star Wars is still really popular, but seriously, people not in the know are going to head over to the Studios and be faced with almost nothing! While I agree that the current Animation stuff pales in...

    Trip Report The 8 Year Joke

    When taking a Girl Scout trip, we usually pick a place, and then find something either educational or service related to do while we're there. Disney World having been on the table for a long time, we struggled initially finding a place to do some good deeds. Give Kids The World, as I mentioned...

    Trip Report The 8 Year Joke

    Thank you so much! And yeah, I will never under estimate Shades of Green ever, it's so close to everything! Alright, day 1 of Parks! We spent the morning and early afternoon at Animal Kingdom, and then we headed over to Magic Kingdom for the Wishes dessert party and a few rides, including...

    Trip Report The 8 Year Joke

    Well, we're back! We had a wonderful time and there's so much to recap! It'll take a while but I'll get started today. So there was a rainbow as we were leaving town, which was pretty neat. I'll find a picture soon. This is the crew. (That's me in the stripes) We were having a pretty fun car...

    Most embarassing thing that has happened to you (or someone you know) on a Disney Vacation?

    We were an hour from home on this last trip when my dad realized he forgot the tickets and we had to drive back to go get them. Well, at least it was only an hour.

    Trip Report The 8 Year Joke

    Aloha from the Poly! Just had a wonderful tonga toast breakfast and about to head back to Shades of Green for a day off. Yesterday we volunteered at Give Kids The World, which was amazing. Super well organized, wonderful staff, and all of the guests were really polite and sweet. The day before...

    Four days to go! Today I finished.... In other good news, we will get to help out at Give Kids the World! We worked it out and it's happening! I'll be helping out at their pizza place, which involves driving a golf cart, so I'm down. It's been a really long time since my family has taken a...
