Yeah she truly basked in the Disney magic all around. And once you taste the Poly, I think it’s probably hard to go anywhere else. Let’s say this, if you guys hit the Mega, carve out a weekend for us to join y’all to experience it together.

Day 2: Magic Kingdom (continued) Another trip on Space Mountain was in the immediate future. The FP line seemed to be longer than usual, so they moved us over to the standby line at the last minute, which actually added a few minutes to our wait I thought. Oh well, I always enjoy this ride...

Ha...well, obviously this ride is going to be all about the Weasley's trip to Egypt mentioned briefly in Prisoner of Azkaban. The picture may not really give the depth but it looked to be an octagon-shaped building with a pointed top. I think (though can't be sure) there was another similar...

Pic I took last Friday:

Thanks!!! Yes, there's so much to do, but at least for us we decided to just focus on one park. Which made us feel like we didn't really miss out on anything and got to max out everything in Magic Kingdom. Our last trip (4 nights/5 days) we hit every park and wore ourselves out. But every...

Thank you sir. They're not up to Mrhappyplace and Myhappyplace standards, but I thought they turned out pretty well. She freaking loves the spin rides.

I'm enjoying the TR! Enjoy the Titans game over "there" this Sunday! Following along.

Wow! It is a very very easy process to redeem that voucher. If you got a letter like mine, it basically spells out what number to call, what code to tell the cast member, etc. It works just like they said it would. If you're like me, I was a little skeptical that I might have issues but...

Day 2: Magic Kingdom part 1 I woke up somewhat early and thought I’d snuck out of the room without waking anyone to go get coffee and milk. Apparently I’d woken up my light-sleeping youngest daughter a few minutes after I left and she decided she’d join me. My wife woke up (thankfully) to...

Thanks...we had an absolute blast! I just wrote a thank you note to the gentleman I spoke to 3 years ago who worked with me on the service issue that gave us the Golden Ticket. Still amazed that he would do such a thing...and still grateful.

Thanks! Hoping to have the next one up later today...and also hoping to be a little less wordy!

Congratulations on your birthday, graduation, and emancipation!

Day 1, continued, Polynesian Resort: We hopped on the monorail and a few moments later a bit of panic hit me: we’re going the wrong direction! Crap, we were headed towards the Contemporary instead of the Poly. How long would this take? As you experts already know, the resort loop is exactly...

Agreed that the WL trip was longer. The Universal river taxis were super fast. I think that might be the perfect “retirement” job for me.

Day 1: Magic Kingdom. My goal was to be at the Polynesian by 7:30 so we could be at Magic Kingdom by 8:30 before rope drop at 9. Though I got up on time, everyone else had a rough morning. We were already behind before getting breakfast at the HI buffet. Nevertheless, I repeated my mantras...

Yes, I think you're right...we never waited more than 10 minutes for a river taxi and at City Walk I don't think I ever saw a line for the other resorts longer than 10-15 people. They seemed very efficient. Far far better than Disney's busses, but still on par with my previous experience at...

I'll post more in my trip report, but Universal was fantastic! I'm positive my oldest was "converted"...the youngest probably was but still loved Disney an awful lot. I really enjoyed the way the Universal parks were themed. I'd read some critiques that they seem jumbled. And I guess I can...

Alright folks...we are back from MK, Polynesian, and Universal! Here comes the Trip Report! Day 0: After driving down last time (and vowing to never do it again if I could catch a break on airfare) we flew into MCO Sunday afternoon and checked into the Holiday Inn: Disney Springs for one...

All sound like good tips y'all...thank you again. Sounds like the air cannons will be something my youngest will have fun with. And I think she can manage Flight of the Hippogriff. I watched some youtube videos of the ride and it seems pretty tame.

Thanks for that clarification. Kinda stinks we won't get to see DA and the dragon at night while we're there, but so be it I guess. At the time we booked the tickets the schedule for HHN hadn't been set so it was a bit of a gamble that it could work out this way. Does anyone have any insider...
