We are going back for my families 8th trip since 2010. Figured we’d get this one knocked out before it gets to a point where I have to pick which kid looks like they can do with only one kidney. I make more than double what I made when I took my family in 2010, but I never feel broker than when we go to the World. First world problems.
Cast of characters:
Writer: 41 year old married father of 3. 8th trip as adult + 3 as a kid.
- DW: 43 years old. This will be her 8th trip.
- DS: 17 year old. This will be his 8th trip. Will be graduating high school in May.
- DD#1: 14 years old. 8th trip.
-DD#2: 10 years old. 6th trip.
Specifics of trips:
- 7 nights booked at Art of Animation. We are considering changing to either POR or CBR. We’ve never done AoA, but have enjoyed it from a far. We’ve stayed at POR and CBR before and love both.
- 5 park days (1 freebie we were given at the end of our last trip).
- 1 park day at Universal mid trip. We did Uni for the first time in June of 2020 and absolutely loved it.
At present, our days break down like this:
December 31st: travel/Disney Springs day
January 1st: MK
January 2nd: AK
January 3rd: UNI
January 4th:MK
January 5th: DHS
January 6th: MK
I’ll give more details as these firm up. At present, this will be the first time I’ve ever skipped EPCOT. Growing up, and into adulthood, that was my favorite park. But if I want to get yelled at by a drunk guy at a construction site, I’d stay home. Beyond that, we are going to hop at UNI but not at the world. And I’m leaning towards paying for the upcharge Six Flags upgrade the aforementioned Chapek is introducing with Lightning Pass.
