Thanks for following along. We are pretty excited but it's been in the 80's here on the west coast and I am worried about the cold snap Orlando has had. We will be packing plenty of layers and won't let it ruin our fun! ;)

Thanks! I might actually get that one done in a reasonable time since I will have an additional week off after our return.

I'm in...getting a last minute dose of disney before we head back in 3 days......:):) Thanks for all the amazing photos!

December pre-trip post: We booked with such short notice that I was certain any ADRs of interest would be impossible. While I was unable to grab a Candlelight Processional dining package on my night of choice, I did snag Minnie's Holiday Dine for a late lunch on day 2, and Boma for breakfast...

Day 9 - Saying Goodbye! Our flight was scheduled to depart at 10:00 AM so we were given a 7:00 AM departure time to catch the tragical express. So we checked in, handed over our luggage, and took these final pictures of what had become one of our favorite Disney Resort Hotels! My favorite...

DAY 8 - continued.... I somehow forgot to take pictures of our dinner but Allexis had the Layered Ratatouille which she thought was very good. It did not present well visually but she enjoyed it. I played it safe and had the Grilled Strip Steak which was cooked perfectly. And who doesn't...

DAY 8 - DVC model tour, packing, and Magic Kingdom Because our morning was unscheduled, we chose to head over the SSR and physically see the models. Back in 2000 I stayed at OKW in a studio (with my DD ages 2 & 6) while another part of our family (larger group) stayed in a 2-bedroom villa...

I have been away due to the Southern California wildfires. We are fine and not in any danger but my work sites have been affected by poor air quality and I have many colleagues who were impacted in some way. Relief efforts and collections are well underway. However, I really need to get this...

We will definitely do Living with the Land again on our next trip - we both really liked it. I will probably skip frozen though. It was cute, and I actually liked the movie, but not one I'd make a must-do on my next trip.

Congratulations!

Day 6 - Continued... For the entree we ordered the Filet Mignon (10 oz since we were sharing), and my DD wanted the Sweet Potato Casserole. We also ordered the Truffle Mac & Cheese. The presentation was beautiful and they even split the entree for us in the kitchen. The filet was cooked...

Day 6 - Pool, Epcot, and a delicious dinner We stayed until park closing for the Halloween Party the night before - which meant a loooong wait at the bus stop. We had no plans for this morning other than spending some time at the pool. I honestly don't recall what time we got up, but I was up...

Yes! There were so many options on the buffet and then some very nice choices on the menu for your entree. And technically you could order more than one entree if you were so inclined. In any event, we could have come back for fireworks that evening but already had tickets to the party so no...

LOL. I chose to be DUM, taking one for the team. I thought for sure my photos made that clear. We actually had a lot of fun as there were quite a few Alice in Wonderland groups who were missing their dee & dum. I think we ended up in at least 2 random group photos to help them finish out...

I am all caught up! Not sure this is a park I will ever get to so thanks for sharing your experience. Great photos!!!!

Day 5 - Continued.... After some down time at the pool and some rest in the room we started getting ready for the Halloween Party. Originally it was going to be a Hocus Pocus theme costume event; however, since it ended up only being the 2 of us and knowing the weather was going to be HOT - we...

Day 5 - Brunch, Chill, and then Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party! Today was a bit of a relaxed morning as we had tickets for the Halloween party this evening. My dad needed to get back to Pompano as I think his beloved Dolphins had a game that afternoon. My daughter and I had made an ADR...

I had done a good amount of pre-planning as usual but really wanted it to be relaxing too. And I never was a massage/spa person until I became a massage therapist myself. Now if I could only find someone worth the money they charge!

LOL. They are a little menacing looking I would say. It was all in good fun but I probably won't be talking back to them again anytime soon!

Day 4 - Continued... It was still raining after spending time meandering through the models so we wandered around Stars Wars Launch Bay since that is where we were to check in for the dessert party. Eventually it was time to check in. We got our party lanyards and headed in to find a table...
