The last few days will be put here because we were just redoing things we had done before. Next was the Magic Kingdom again. We did Country Bears, Liberty Boat, Goofy"s roller coaster, Haunted Mansion, pirates, jungle cruise, Space Mountain, Splash Mountain, Mermaid and other favorite rides. We ate at Be Our Guest. It was OK. The food was good but small portions. Cast Members were great. Beast came out and walked around every 30 minutes or so. The interior was very detailed and nice. We had fun just redoing things we had done already. The next day was a chill day at Blizzard B

Heading to Hollywood Studios today. Got up a little before 7:00 AM again to try and get on the RotR. FAIL!!! Remember I mentioned that the kids saw the Droids and were wondering if they could get in and do it? Well, my wife found out that if you go there first thing and asked if there are any openings you might get in. So we get there and head directly to the Droid shop. Three of the kids wanted to do it. We asked the very nice CM if there are any openings? She said yes at 9:00 am since it was after 8:30 we decided to just wait until 9:00. The droids are $99, but WHAT there's MORE! I

We had reservations for breakfast at Chef Mickey's. Never been there before and we liked it. The food was good, hard to ruin pancakes, eggs, waffles, beacon and fruit. The Cast Members were excellent. Mickey, Minnie, Goofy, Donald and Pluto came out and danced. Donald was rockin it big time! He stole the show. We then went to EPCOT. On purpose this time. We did Frozen, The 3 Caballeros, China's movie, American Adventure, Spaceship Earth, The Land, The Sea, Test Track, Mission Space, and The France Film. We had Fish and Chips in England for lunch/dinner. My son had funnel cake for lun

Yes, we tend to go Commando when we visit WDW.

We are heading to Universal IoA today. We did the Hulk, Dr Doom, Spiderman. Then we ran into Captain America!! Had to take pictures with him. I asked the kids if they wanted to do Popeye/Bluto water ride. They said yes. I told them you WILL get, not wet BUT SOAKED. Again they said yes, so we went on it. Got SOAKING wet. I asked "Do you want to do Dudley-Do-Right"? They said We're already soaked so why not. Rode it and got soaked again. That's ok. I will say that it was probably me not doing something right, but I had a hard time getting into and out of the Dudley-Do-Right log ride

This day we headed to Animal Kingdom! Everyone have hats, sunscreen, water, wallet and Magic Band? Good. We drove there. We prefer to do that. We went straight to Flight of Passage and got to the end of the line were the path gets to Africa! It moved fairly quickly. This ride was great! Good job! Then we did the River ride. It was OK at best. Then we did Dinosaur, Everest, the trails, safari, the bird show (that was neat) and Though to be a bug. You had to get into line for The Lion King show an hour before it started. We decided not to wait in 95 degree heat and no shade. We had

We went to Blizzard Beach the next day. We got out of the truck, we drove, and asked "Everyone have their Magic Bands?" I hear "We need our bands?". from both of my sons. Get back in the truck and go back to the campground, get the bands and head back to BB. My wife and I added Magic Bands to the "Do you have " questions we ask before we leave the campground. (hat, sunglasses, wallet, water, sunscreen and now Magic Bands) This was just a chill day. doing some slides and the lazy river. Just relaxed. The next day I got up before 7 am and tried to get into the Rise of Resistance rid

You're right. I was assuming reasonable people. What was I thinking!! 😀

My wife is a HUGE Harry Potter fan, so we had to go to Universal. We got the 2 park 2 day tickets and Studios had early entry this day at 8 so we made sure we were there at the gate by 7:30 am. I must have missed it, but we soon found out that if you aren't staying at a Universal Hotel or have a special ticket you can't do anything but wander around the open stores until 9:00 am. So that's what we did. It was okay, just a surprise. We did Gringott's first thing. It was fun, but we all felt that the ending was kind of MEH. Then we did Minions, They stopped it near the end because someone

We slept in this day and took it easy and then went to Disney Springs around 1:00 PM. We wondered around in the shops until 3 when we ate at Raglan Road. The server was great and the food was very good. We also sampled the Raglan Road Signature Collection flight. Good stuff. My youngest son bought a long board, it was called a skate board when I was a teen-ager, at Ron Jon's. Never road one before he bought it. When we got back to the campground my oldest son taught him how to do it. My youngest son also went to the Lego store while we were still wondering around World of Disney. When

We got up early and walked to the docks and waited for the boat. There was a line, of course, but we didn't wait that long for a boat to show up. It unloaded {why? It was a little after 7 so they already had enough? forgot something? Made me curious.} and then loaded. We got to the front of the line when they stopped allowing people to get on. No worries, because we could see the next boat heading our way. 5 to 10 minutes later we were boarding the boat. We had to wear masks on the boat even though half the people were outside and all the windows were open. Oh well, it's the rules so we

Dogs were left at the kennel, so no problem there. No more agony. Just ecstasy from here!

After a GREAT time at the beach we headed for Fort Wilderness! About two hours later we are on WDW property! Somehow we took the EPCOT exit instead of the Fort Wilderness exit! We said hello to the EPCOT security and turned around and took the correct exit. We later drove that same road several times and can't for the life of us figure out how we screwed that up. We decided it was the excitement of being at WDW for the first time in 8 years. That's our story and we are sticking to it. We checked in to the Fort with a very nice person from France. We had asked for the 900 loop, because

We scheduled this trip to celebrate my youngest son's graduation from High School and his leaving for Marine Boot-camp. So all of us made the effort to get the time off. My wife, oldest son (27), oldest daughter (24), youngest daughter (21) and youngest son (19). We arrived at Jetty Park Campground on May 30th. The camp sites looked bigger on satellite pictures, but it was fine. We liked the campground. Nice and close to the beach! We stayed there for 2 nights and had a GREAT time on the beach with the wife and kids! All the kids got sun burned!! Our youngest daughter said "how did I g

We also had lots of company on the side of the road after the fire. Police and firemen. Someone must have called 911.
