I'm really enjoying your TR! I was interested in your visit to Islands of Adventure. Our oldest children (7 & 5) LOVE Harry Potter! We have only let them see the first two movies in the series. Do you think they would get much out of the Harry Potter Town at this age or would you wait until they are older? Also, did you just call the resort to reserve a towncar? I think I would prefer it to a taxi. Just trying to do some more planning for our next trip.
Can't wait to read more!
Hmmm. I think they would probably really enjoy it, even at that age. My youngest was 7 and she thought it was pretty darn cool.
As for the towncar, I reserved it through a company that our agency recommends. I can't mention it here because they are not a DIS sponsor, but you can pm me. I think a taxi would be okay for two people, but they want to charge you per person, so for more than two, the towncar is cheaper. I suppose you can haggle some with the taxi drivers, but I've never had much luck with that.
I think it was a particularly lovely update in all respects! Your pictures are really pretty and what you didn't do was just dreamy! A leisurely walk around the resort and some much needed down time!! Nice work!
I agree, just "playing it by ear" rarely ends in a Meet!
We had the same experience on this last trip of two weeks ago - we never did hook up with the other three girls at the parks. Just couldn't make it work.
