    Trip Report March 2016 - A 30th Birthday Eartravaganza!

    And some more: We saw this dude on our way out. I gotta say - this fireworks show was incredible. I know it has since changed but what I saw was unbelievable, especially for such a big Star Wars fan. While Alex was snapping away at all of those pictures I was standing there watching...

    Trip Report March 2016 - A 30th Birthday Eartravaganza!

    After we were rested and washed up from our long morning and afternoon it was time for us to head on over to MGM for my birthday present (to go with my awesome new shirt). Alex kept this a surprise as long as she could but when I told her I wanted to head over to Epcot for dinner she had to give...

    Trip Report March 2016 - A 30th Birthday Eartravaganza!

    One last thing before we left MK for the day... I had to get my pin! Just because my birthday was still a couple days away doesn't mean I don't deserve the pin! Once we got back to POR it was finally time to head to our room. We picked up our bags and took the walk, isn't that first walk to...

    Trip Report March 2016 - A 30th Birthday Eartravaganza!

    Once we wrapped up our Under the Sea Journey it was time for one of our FP+'s - Space Mountain! One of our favorite rides in all of WDW. I'm not sure what was going on with the SM FP this day (see above), but when we got there to the get on line this is what we saw: DUN DUN DUN!!! It turns...

    Trip Report March 2016 - A 30th Birthday Eartravaganza!

    Still going! Since our last WDW trip we were still just dating and Alex is very impressed with her engagement ring... and this light, here's a pic of them both. This next picture may look familiar, it should, look at that last post (it is a different picture though, look at that angle!)...

    Trip Report March 2016 - A 30th Birthday Eartravaganza!

    After leaving BOG we ended up heading to Under the Sea. This was one of the two new rides we were able to take on the last trip and Alex loves it. When you combine a well done queue and a good ride, we're riding again. Especially when the stand by time is only 30 minutes on a Saturday at 1:45...

    Trip Report March 2016 - A 30th Birthday Eartravaganza!

    I'm back! Being super busy at work this week and being generally TKO'd by Fourth of July weekend after I wrote that first post has led to this delay, but I'll do my best to get through this TR in short order. I can't guarantee that it'll take less than two months though, however since Alex and I...

    Trip Report March 2016 - A 30th Birthday Eartravaganza!

    OK, I've hit my typical four months mark from when I've returned and been through my typical WDW withdrawals. For those of you that are unsure of what you're getting in to, here is where you can catch up with me and my wife in our pre-trip report for this time through the parks. Spoiler alert...

    Harmony Barber Shop

    Hi everyone, Does Harmony Barber Shop take reservations or is it all walk up? My wife and I will be in WDW starting Saturday and it happens to coincide with when I would need a haircut so I figure, hey why not? Thanks for the help.

    Pre-Trip March 2016 - A 30th Birthday Extravaganza

    So here we are. The final week of waiting. Unfortunately, we are actually waiting for something. That something would be our DME luggage tags! You see, as I mentioned in my last post, Alex and I decided to upgrade to POR - however, we didn't upgrade until about three weeks ago. Can you see...

    Pre-Trip March 2016 - A 30th Birthday Extravaganza

    Well this certainly needs an update! Here we are, a mere 14 days away from our triumphant return to WDW. For starters, we are no longer staying at Pop - Alex found a great deal through Disney that allowed us to upgrade to Port Orleans Riverside. We're super excited to be staying here (me...

    Riverside - Ol’ Man Island Refurb

    Does any one know when this refurbishment will be over? My wife and I are debating upgrading to POR for our trip next month, but can't find a solid date for when the pool area (mainly, the pool bar) will be reopen. Thanks!

    Pre-Trip March 2016 - A 30th Birthday Extravaganza

    As for this trip, here are some details: Dates: March 5 - 10, 2016 Resort: Pop Century, we really enjoyed this Value resort on our last trip and since we had decided that we were sticking with the Value level for this quick trip, we decided to stick with the same resort. Having stayed in AS...

    Pre-Trip March 2016 - A 30th Birthday Extravaganza

    Hello everyone! I'm finally sitting down to write out this PTR for our upcoming trip after putting it off for a few weeks. I've slowly been trying to ease my way back onto the boards so that I don't drop a splash of fun out of nowhere since I was absent for so long. I also wanted to get this...

    Via Napoli ADR

    Thanks again every one! As @Lexi pointed out, we were able to make the ADR for 3/7 at Via Napoli! This is very exciting news, because I can now stuff my face with their incredible pizza while I drink away my 30th birthday (with much help from the fine folks slinging Moosehead at the Canada...

    Via Napoli ADR

    Thanks for the responses every one! I finally spoke with someone at WDW Dining and she was just as baffled as I was. We were both in agreement that as good and popular as Via Napoli is there's not way the place would be booked up for a full week at the 180 mark. She said it's most likely that...

    Via Napoli ADR

    Hey folks! It's been a while since I've been vocal on the blogs, but don't worry, I have been following along as best I can. I was hoping someone out there in this awesome community of WDW addicts could help me and my fiance with something. We have our next WDW trip planned for 3/5 - 3/10...
