Thanks Max. It's nice to be back.

Thanks. 25 years has flown by (and I can't believe I'm old enough to be married 25 years. It means I've been married more years than I was single now).

Closing thoughts. 5 years with no Disney parks was tough, so this was the perfect little mini-trip to get us back into it. I wish we had booked two extra days just to be able to hit all four parks, but I was pretty happy with the two days we had. Having read about all the changes that had been...

September 21st continued I kept checking the app to see how close my boarding group was. Around the time the fireworks started they were on group 160, so we’re getting there. One cool thing was that during the fireworks our Magicbands were vibrating and lighting up. Really neat (also a bit...

September 21st continued One thing Tammy really wanted to try was the “make-your-own” popcorn bucket thing they had at the confectionary (we had both seen this on Tik-Tok). We got the caramel popcorn with Snickers and Twix. It was really good, but it was really sweet (and very sticky). Still...

September 21st continued The party officially started right after we got off Big Thunder, which meant all the trick-or-treat locations were now open, so we went into full-on candy collection mode. I like the set-up better than the previous parties I had been in (like in 2014). They had a lot...

September 21st continued One thing we had to figure out is what we wanted to get out of this night. Did we want to watch the parade and fireworks? Are rides a priority? Do we want to get lots of Candy? We talked about it, and decided that rides and candy were the priority. I really do love the...

September 21st continued We had never been in the Diamond Horseshoe, but we had eaten the food before (same menu as Liberty Tree, which is one of Tammy’s favourites). We were seated quickly, and the bread and salad were brought out almost right away. Next up was the mains, followed...

Sept 21 continued With medallion in hand, we headed back to the room for a little afternoon nap before the big night ahead. Around 3 pm we got up, threw on something a bit festive, and headed down to the boat launch. We made it to the MK around 3:30ish, and we jumped into the massive line...

Sept 21 continued We eventually made it to World of Disney. For the most part things are exactly like we remembered them. They do have the mobile check-out thing, but we can’t use that because we want to get the DVC discount. Still a cool idea though. We walked around all the different...

Sept 21 continued Around 11ish we decided we should have lunch (we wanted to eat lunch a bit early since we had dining reservations at 4:30). We both love Earl of Sandwich so that’s where we went. Tammy got the Holiday sandwich, and I got the limited time Nashville Hot Chicken sandwich...

Sept 21 – Tammy, Graham the Viral Shirts and the Candy Heist We started the day with the planned “sleeping in” (i.e. around 8am). We had a quiet morning planned since we were doing the MNSSHP in the evening. We started with the normal coffee in the room to wake ourselves up, then we headed over...

It would have been fun to meet you as well. I think you'll love WL. In terms of theming, it's pretty much a tie with AKL for us. Definitely one of our favourite resorts.

Thanks for following along. I always love reading your trip reports. Any trips coming up? We really tried to cram a lot into day 1. We wish we had more time (it's one of those "absence makes the heart grow fonder" things). I think we forgot how much we enjoyed Disney. Disney...

Thanks for your kind words. No, it wasn't a Disney Cruise. We were on Harmony of the Seas (Royal Caribbean) to Aruba and Curacao.

Day 2 continued So dinner….what to do…. “Roaring Fork again”? Tammy says…”Nah, I have a better idea”….but I wouldn’t tell her what it is….”just follow me”…to the Poly bus….Captain Cook’s it is. Tammy and I both really love the Poly so it was nice to be here again (I also had an ulterior motive...

Day 2 continued. It's now around 6pm, and we decide to head back to HS. We got there around 6:30 and make our way back in. We were going to go right to Slinky Dog to use our next LL, but I had an idea…. What if we go back to the MMRR LL and I explain what happened this morning…maybe they’d let...

Day 2 continued After our little round trip through the sky (we just rode from HS to Caribbean Beach and then back to HS), we headed back to Wilderness Lodge. We chatted on the way back about what we wanted to do and decided we’d make a quick trip to the Outlets just to look around. TBH, we...

Day 2 continued After making ourselves dizzy, we made our way back to RotR. The standby line said 50 minutes. That’s a bit longer than I’d usually wait, but I really wanted to do this one, so we got in line. Turns out the times were a bit inflated as we got back to the doors before you get on...

Day 2 continued OK, it can only go up from here right? Let’s turn this thing around. We headed over to Toy Story Land and decided we should grab something to eat. When Steph and Calvin were here in August they really enjoyed the food at Woody’s lunchbox, so we decided to give it a shot. We...
