Pre-Trip New non- political title to come.

You will have to read this PTR to see if the words "Hey, 9000!" actually do appear within it.

You may be asking, "But, 9000... why use that title??" Well, simmer down young buckaroo, there's a reason and you'll know soon enough. But lets dispense with the pleasantries and get to the, well...other pleasantries.

I'll be heading to Genie+ World for Spring Break!!

I'll be joined by, the one, ..the only,... the infamous ...C Minor!!!

My last trip with her was back in 2019. We had a blast and im very excited to be travelling with her again.

Shes MUCH taller now and is 15 years old.

Fun Fact: I puke in my mouth when people refer to their kids by their age. "3 just asked me to.." Or are they referring to the order in which their kids were born? Either way, gag me with a spoon.

Anyway, we have a triple split stay for our resorts. As usual, I added an extra day last minute. I was able to get a studio room at Destino Tower for our day of arrival. Then we head to Copper Creek for 2 days, then over to BWV for 3 days!

My sister is also going with her 2 boys and they're bringing several of their friends. They're over at Beach Club.


Perhaps we shall bump into..

Updates to come...

You got to witness first hand how demanding C Monster can get, but she also used that skill to make sure I stayed hydrated this trip, so no hangover this morning! Which is shocking considering that we pounded appx 4-5 rounds in 2 hours last night. That's not counting the few (and by "few" I mean 5) drinks I had prior to meeting up. But hey, at least I actually remember everything this time. Or do i??? I'm waiting for you to send me a pic of a moment I can't recall, hahahah

I just dropped of the Lil monster and I already miss her . We had soooooo much fun this trip. I will definitely be updating this report over the next few days.

I'm currently trying to keep the magic alive with beer and Mellow Mushroom pizza. Spoiler alert: it's not working. But cheers to everyone, especially my big homie @Darstarr who Is still "living it up, love that feeliiinnnng".

Finishing up the other night at MK...

Just a few more pics from late night at MK

BTMRR

We went over to PoTC next. As walked towards the loading area, P spotted this discarded Starbucks cup on the handrail and commented, "human garbage put this garbage here".

We rode Mansion after (I posted our ride pic already). Then over to Tomorrowland Star Tunnel Gang For Life!

We rode Dumobo twice. Didn't even have to re-queue.

Shirley status in this bathroom. I can't remember where tho.

We did Pan and IaSW after. Then the kids ran back over to ride Space Mtn again and also Astro Orbiters.

On the way out, we saw the filming of the newest Fast and Furious: Drifting on Main Street

Headed back to the roommand promptly passed out.

 

[wdisney9000]

Let's rewind back to day 3 of the trip.

I was up early, Minor was passed out still. I headed down to grab coffee and breakfast.

Been a few years since I visited RF. I miss the croissant egg amd cheese biscuits. No longer on the menu. I just got an iced latte amd the banana fosters pancakes for C.

I.enjoyed my coffee by the lake and Minor was up by now so I brought her food up. She ate it so fast this was the only pic I got

I realized i had a MK reservation but C had Epcot. I went to front desk to see what could be done.

I explained to the CM it was completely my fault and i got the days mixed up when booking. I knew asking to switch hers to MK would be a Longshot and is probly what .ost people try and do so I asked if they could switch mine to Epcot.

The CM was very polite and said she couldn't do it, but got a Manger to see what could be done. They kinda explained that since I didn't blame the system for making the mistake and admitted it was my fault that they would do something. Apparently many people.try to blame the website or app and try and get them to switch park reservations.

The manager was so polite and even offered to switch Minors Epcot to MK. I was very tempted but we had planned Epcot to meet my sister and her gang.

Problem solved, and I went up to.fetch Minor. I took this picture when sje wasn't paying attention. She was just staring out the window enjoying the view....or thinking about Tik Tok, who knows whay these kids are thinking lol

One other snafoo I encountered while at the front desk was that they told me we had to switch rooms. I had booked two nights at Copper Creek. One thought DVC and the other thru Disney. Both were labeled Deluxe Studio. But the DVC rooms are not the walk in shower?? Our cash room was.

Bell services got our bags to hold them. This would be three rooms in three days, smh.

We didn't trust the bus system so I chirped a Lyft. He arrived within 3 minutes and also didn't care if we were maskless. Yay! We were at Epcot within 10 minutes.

The ride slowed to a crawl ans there wasn't anybody behind us so I turned the flash on and got a pic of the old space station thays still there!

My brother in law was already in the park having breakfast at France Pavilion so we headed over to meet him, but first we stopped in Club Cool

Soon we were in France having some 1664's, @Darstarr where you at???

Minor got a guava mango slushie

She did NOT like it. She took 2 sips and threw it in the trash. In here defense, I tried it and it was quite heavy on the guava

She tried another flavor, strawberry I believe and was much happier.

My Brother headed back to Beach Club to round up their gang. C and inl headed to TT.

After TT we walked back to WS and passed my sister and the boys. They didn't even notice us lol

We stalked them and sent them photos of themselves until they realized we were behind them.

They were going to TT but Minor and I had an early lunch date planned. We all decided to meet afterwards.

C Monster is continuing her quest to rank as many Disney cheeseburgers as possible.

The burger at Steakhouse 71 is the best I have had on property.

 

[wdisney9000]

Any guesses where we went???

Here's a hint...

Via Napoli!! I'm sure you already figured it out.

We had a GREAT meal. We ordered the cheese and sausage pie. It was delicious.

Before we met up with my sister, we hit Remmy.

Minor had not ridden it yet and as we discussed it, I sensed she thought it was E ticket level. I calmed her expectations so she wouldn't underwhelmed. After riding, sje said she really Iked it. I asked if she liked Remmy or Mickeys Runaway Railway more. She instantly replied Ratatouille.

Next we met my sister and the gang over at Soarin

P decided to go fashion forward and sported his mom's hat. No shame in his game!

We all decided to head over to HS. We got delayed bybtje bridge.

Day 3 ctd...


After leaving Epcot we were HS bound via the skyliner.

It was time.for a snack.

Baseline vibes...

Drink then ride...

The boys had told their friend (who is not a fan of roller coasters) that RnRC didn't go upside down or too fast lol. That's him in the back row next to P (who is cracking up)

After the ride I paid a quick homage to an old favorite sandwich spot of mine. Can you guess where I am??

Next stop was Tune In Lounge

You still can't sit at the bar so you just stand around in the same proximity you would if you were actually sitting at the bar, smh. Whays the difference? And it actually forces you to move around more. We felt so safe lol.

We did actually get our beers to go. And then we realized that we walked out with beer in a glass, not plastic cup.

Standing next to people is very safe. Sitting next to them is very unsafe. Everyone knows this.

Looks like you're having a great time, i loved the inappropriate photo outside AK. You seem like you'd be a really cool guy to hang with at WDW and I like the balance of photos in your report. Enjoy the time with your minor, she will be a major in no time and you only get this time with her once...it goes by too fast.
