Hey there! Well at long last, the day has come - in a few short hours, we’re heading down to WDW 👍 I am doing this on my phone and I can’t get GIFs to work unless I’m on my Mac, so alas, for now it shall be texts and emoji 👍 If we haven’t met, Hi 👋, I’m Diana, a 39-year old marketing...

For years, I’ve been managing tickets and plans for my husband and our kids. This week, my stepson and I are doing an early morning for RotR and meeting up with my husband and toddler later. The next day, my husband and son will be going while I stay back with our daughter. I realized, though...

We'll be using Uber or Lyft to get to DHS from CBR early next week and ride RoTR, but I've only used Minnie Vans in the past, and not from a moderate hotel that has multiple bus stops. When ordering a ride share, do they come to the bus stop nearest you, or do we have to meet them at Old Port...

When I try to post or reply on an updated iPhone (in Safari), all the formatting/image icons are greyed out and can’t be used. Is there some sort of setting I’m missing, or is it like this for everyone? The “attach files” and “preview” buttons are fine - attaching a screenshot of this window...

Hey there — for those who don’t know me, my name is Diana 👋. I’ve been a member here since 2007 and used to post TRs pretty frequently. Then, life got in the way and I kind of…stopped. Just recently, I FINALLY finished my wedding TR (from 2014!). But, if you’re a sucker for old TRs and would...

Okay, I feel really stupid here. I used to post TRs all the time, but it's been 5(!) years, and I'm finally finishing my wedding trip report. Back in the day, I would just share the link to the image in Picasa (now Google photos), and all was well with the world. I posted an update yesterday and...

Commenting on the Illuminations thread about my strongest memories of ROE made me think back to some of the slowest times I've been in the parks. I'm wondering what others have experienced. The slowest time I spent in the parks was definitely Christmas Week 2001. The country was still very...

Please don't flame me, because I'm new at traveling to WDW with little kids 😬 I had been a passholder for 14 years before my daughter was born, and my stepson was 10 the first time we took him, so this is uncharted territory! Last year, our daughter was 7 months when we went to WDW. She was...

Now that I'm back from 8 nights and 9 days in WDW, I thought I'd share some lessons I learned. As a longtime passholder who was traveling to WDW for the first time with a baby, I was kind of terrified 🤣 I received a lot of advice (both on here and from friends and family) and thought I'd share...

I know I keep posting that I'm a newbie when it comes to traveling with a baby, but I just am (it's so weird to feel like a newbie!) :D We are leaving in two and a half weeks, and I'm planning on shipping a bunch of stuff down and ordering more on Instacart so we don't have to travel with a ton...

We're taking my daughter for our first trip next month and she'll be 7 months old, so we rented a stroller and are shipping down a bunch of supplies ahead of time to minimize the amount of stuff we have to lug around the airport. We're thinking about which rides and attractions we can/will do...

We're arriving for a weeklong trip at POP in August and one of my favorite things to do is go for a jog or walk around the lake (and past AoA) each morning. It's just a super peaceful way to start each day. With the gondola construction going on (I'm not following it closely), it sounds like...

A technical perspective on magic bands and what they mean - not just for Disney, but for how we interact with technology moving forward. http://www.wired.com/2015/03/disney-magicband/?mbid=social_twitter

Okay, we’ve been back for two weeks now, so I guess it’s time to get started on my TR. I’ve been feeling the post-wedding blues, so this might be some good therapy ;) For a rundown on the trip and my Disney wedding, here’s my wedding planning thread. There are lots of details over there! Also...

Well, who ever thought this day would come? If you've ever read any of my TRs, you may know that my life was supposed to be very different right now...I'll give a brief recap. Life was going pretty well two and a half years ago when very suddenly, my mom passed away of a rare heart condition on...

I am super excited to share this find with everyone, since I'm not one to uncover cool little WDW history bits, but here goes. My boyfriend is a big "car guy" and we regularly go to cruise nights and car shows across Western New York (we live outside of Buffalo). Last night we went to a cruise...

I used to be so good with my TRs, but I guess I’ve fallen off the wagon! I didn’t even write one for my past few trips, and this one comes nearly 3 months after getting home! Ah well, it’s fun to have a little separation from the trip and relive it a bit. So much has happened since then...

Well, it's been quite some time since I wrote a TR around here...more than a year, in fact (here's my last one, if you're curious). And to say that my life has changed since then would be a massive understatement! Actually, the past two years have really seen a lot of change... First, my mom...

My boyfriend and I are heading to WDW for our 1-year anniversary (No parks this time...he's divorced, and his son has never been to WDW, so he doesn't want to go without him. We're planning a trip next February with the 3 of us). My annual pass expires June 7, so it'll be burning a hole in my...

Greetings and salutations! Thanks for dropping by. At the urging of some WDWMagic peeps over on Twitter, I have decided to share the story of my quick, “not quite a trip” trip. Here are the basic details of this trip...er...non-trip...well...you’ll see: Dates: 4/11 - 4/17 Location: St...
