    Trip Report It's all part of the experience...a Sweet 16 trip

    My apologies for falling off of the face of the planet! LOL We have had a lot going on in our world since our trip in the beginning of November. I found out I needed a breast biopsy about a week before our trip. The doctor wanted to do it on the Wednesday before we flew out on Friday, but I...

    Pre-Trip My birthday at Disney Springs??! Don't mind if I do!

    We really had no plans to return to Orlando before our upcoming trip in November for our first DVC adventure, but sometimes plans change. Dennis is changing jobs at the end of June and we decided it would be good to get away for a few days in the weeks between the end of one era and the...

    Pre-Trip Sweet 16 at Animal Kingdom Lodge

    After an amazing trip in August with a friend who was a DVC member, we bit the bullet and purchased points through resale at Animal Kindgom Lodge. Our first trip will be in November of this year just one month shy of our sweet Grace turning (HUGE GULP!!) 16!!!!! What better way to celebrate...

    Pre-Trip Our first ever deluxe vacation...could it be?!

    We have an opportunity to travel with a friend with whom we had lost touch for a few years, who just so happens to be a DVC member. We are still in the discussion stage, but we are very excited about the possibility of a deluxe vacation at...wait for it...The Polynesian!! She can't book the...

    Pre-Trip I have the best husband ever!

    My dear sweet husband totally surprised me by booking an adults only cruise on the Disney Dream for February 2017! Our 20th anniversary was yesterday, and he presented me with this little beauty inside of a beautiful card. I'm pretty sure I am the luckiest woman alive! I can hardly wait...

    Via Napoli salad

    We had a delicious salad at Via Napoli a couple of weeks ago with a honey citrus vinaigrette. Does anyone happen to have the recipe for that dressing? We are both still talking about it.

    Trip Report Rain, rain go away! The Miller family wants to play! (COMPLETE)

    This trip was planned after one of the most stressful years of our married life. A multitude of bumps in road of life had left us worn out and in need of some Disney magic. The worst of which was a cancer scare in the late Spring that, by the grace of God, turned out to be a false alarm. I...

    Disney Dining Buddy

    Has anyone used this website to watch for the hard-to-get dining reservations? I am considering trying them to land a lunch reservation at Be Our Guest in September. Is it worth it, or should we just keep trying on our own?

    Pre-Trip Here we go again...because I don't have cancer!

    It has been an interesting year for us, to say the least. Trying to sell our house without success, dealing with both of our Dads with dementia, a health scare with our sweet daughter, as well as just the "regular" stresses of work and home life. We took a lovely adults-only trip to WDW in...

    Trip Report We can sleep when we get home...We're at Disney without the kid!

    This trip was originally supposed to happen in the Fall to celebrate our 20th anniversary, but thanks to a deal offered by Southwest for January, we decided to celebrate the 19th instead!! We left our 13 year old special needs daughter with friends and family for 5 days so we could rest and...

    Bouncebacks

    Can anyone who has travelled recently remember if a land and sea package, or even just a Disney cruise package was part of the bounceback offers they received? Just curious.

    Pre-Trip Two trips for the price of one!

    So, our original plans were to head the The World at the end of September of 2015 to celebrate 20 years of wedded bliss. On September 1, we booked a full trip staying at Port Orleans Riverside in a Royal Room for just the two of us for 8 days. Sounds magical, right? We had a trip countdown...

    Boma vs Sanaa

    We are dreaming and early planning for our anniversary trip next September. We have never eaten at Boma or Sanaa. Any thoughts on one over the other? The menus look amazing! We aren't very familiar with this type of food but we are willing to try.

    Fast Pass + question

    We able to book our FP+ selections tonight. Do we have to select 3 for one park, or is there a way to only select one? As it looks right now, it appears that we have to select three whether we want them or not. We were trying to only book Soarin' for Epcot on our first day, but can't figure...

    Whispering Canyon question

    When we ate at Whispering Canyon last Fall I had a delicious s'mores dessert. Does anyone know if that is still an option or have they gone to the sampler only? Also, if my daughter is on the adult dining plan but won't enjoy any of the entrees will they allow her an appetizer as her entree?

    Need suggestions for item delivery

    We have decided that we would like to have a coffee maker in our room for the week. Rather than take up valuable luggage space since we only plan to check one bag to fly, we are considering ordering one and having it delivered to the resort. (We are staying in a value resort so a coffee maker...
