I've had intentions to make one for several years now so YAY!!We've just returned from our quick, 4-ish day trip at WDW. I had set a few goals that I wanted to accomplish this time around that you can read about here in my pre-trip report. <a href="https://forums.wdwmagic.com/threads/goals-trip-report.971938/" target="_blank">https://forums.wdwmagic.com/threads/goals-trip-report.971938/</a>The husband and I traveled with our son (4) and my nephew (13). I will say that we had a blast, I learned a few things and I met most of my goals; but I definitely need a do-over as a little snafu altered some of our plans, but more about that later.Trip DetailsWhen: 3/3-3/6Where: Split stay at Riveria/ Pop CenturyWednesday 3/3 The day started off super early with the typical travel day butterflies. We woke up dark and early (5:40am) for our 9:21am flight out of Cleveland. The little guy was like "Mommy, I can't believe we woke up before the sun came out, LOL". We typically drive to my parents house as they live about 3 minutes away from the airport; this was so clutch when I still lived at home.Rather than pay to park my dad usually drops us off.  Additionally, we needed to pick up my nephew from their house. I wanted to get there early as I didn't trust that he'd be awake and ready, but to my surprise he was <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /> We made the quick trip to Cleveland-Hopkins with 2 hours to spare.With the exception of my nephews bag getting flagged, security was a breeze.. Sidenote***A few days prior to the trip, I noticed that I input my husbands birthday wrong when I booked the flights. I called the airline to get it fixed and although the DOB isn't printed on the boarding pass, I was a bit nervous that we'd still run into issues...alas, we were all good.We made a stop at our favorite airport dining spot. [ATTACH=full]538373[/ATTACH]The grown-ups opted not to eat; I usually never pass up an opportunity to munch on chicken minis but I just wasn't feeling it this morning.On to the gate! I don't know if its because it's Frontier, but they are always and the very, very end of the terminal, lol[ATTACH=full]538374[/ATTACH]To my fellow parents with young kids, these Skip Hop suitcases are amazing for little ones. They fit under the seat and can be classified as a personal item so you don't have to pay to bring them on the plane. I was able to fit so much inside (a large packing cube, iPad with a bulky case, his toiletries, snacks, over the ear headphones and a pair of vans.) I highly recommend!Once we got to the gate, we had about 40 minutes until boarding so I took some random photos[ATTACH=full]538381[/ATTACH]Magic Band on!![ATTACH=full]538382[/ATTACH]You see this little pink shoe? Well this little mama almost took my head off several times and I had to lean in to the guy next to me. When she boarded the plane, she had the WORST tantrum that I'd ever encountered on a flight, her little foot kicked so fast, lol. Watching everyones head turn back to stare, I felt so bad for the parents; I know they had to be overwhelmed and a bit embarrassed. Expecting a long flight, I immediately put my earbuds in, but thankfully she calmed down after they sat down.[ATTACH=full]538391[/ATTACH]After an uneventful flight, we touched down in Orlando early! Obligatory Disney airport photos **(So the matching hoodies was not planned <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite7" alt=":p" title="Stick Out Tongue    :p" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":p" /> I had no idea that my nephew had that on under his other jacket) [ATTACH=full]538392[/ATTACH]IDK about most people, but I love the new marketing photos with the masks.  After we got of the overly packed train, we met the rep for the stroller rental pick up and then made our way over to the rental cars. We usually rent with Almao and I thanked my lucky stars that we opted to rent with Enterprise. The Alamo line had about 30 people in line, I'd never seen anything like it.Coming up, more of day one</blockquote>
