Beautiful pics on the boat. Glad you all enjoyed your Lunch. I don't blame your DH for being cranky at schedualing a FP for MS. right after lunch.
Glad your room request was honored and that at least one of your rooms was ready to drop your stuff off.
Bummer about the issues upgrading the tickets, but at least they were friendly and gave you the bonus FPs - and you got in rides on TSMM and ToT that you weren't planning on so that was good. And congrats on the APs
That is a nice view as the boat gets to the IG with the Eiffel Tower in the background. Sounds like a nice lunch and a good start at EPCOT - especially with no space sickness bag needed

Joining in - Awesome timing getting there the night before.. more time in the parks! Luke is so cute. Can't wait to read more.
You just got to love these little moments!It was one of those Disney details that I previously walked right by, but now here we were appreciating it through the eyes of a toddler. It was really a magical moment.
However, as we were getting off the ride, DH's magic band popped off and flew into the ride mechanism.

told us everything was finally fixed (any guesses on whether or not that is true? )
Great trip report!! A silly question but did Disney give you any type of discount for checking into AOA at 1am? You weren't in the room that long at all they should have.
Thank you! We think he's awesome! We are super excited to be staying at Beach Club Villas for our October trip!Luke is so adorable, such a cutie!! He is so lucky to have a Disney loving family. We take the boat from DHS to Epcot all the time, we LOVE it. We will be staying at Beach Club Villas in December and can't wait.
.I am a big fan of Soarin - just something about it really makes it easy to lose yourself in the ride. Though I am very much looking forward to a new version with a digital movie that doesn't have spots all over it
As much as I loved our previous Adult Only trips I do think traveling with little ones almost forces you to slow down at times and take in these details ... I just htink it is great that there are so many ways to enjoy a Disney drip
Ugh, that is so frustrating. I mean, I get it, technology problems are going to happen, but if you tell me it is all fixed, it better be all fixed, you know?
following! your son is ADORABLE!
We are headed to the Kingdom next month with a 13 month old.
Luke is a cutie. I am taking my 18 month daughter in Oct. your report is making me even more excited if that is possible
That is really cool! I bet you'll have a blast. Cute Halloween costumes, by the way. I can't get over how adorable Luke is too! Having the newborn report fresh in my mind, it feels like he grew up in the blink of an eye. He seems like he's having a great time.This year we will actually be in Disney on Halloween!
Good choice! I would choose that over some random hotel off the highway.Art of Animation had a room. I had always wanted to stay there, so we booked it!
I just do not understand why pack 'n' play requests are ever this slow late at night. I mean, clearly you need it, like, 5 minutes ago. I mean, don't they understand that every minute with a tired kid that should be in bed is like an hour to the parents? Seems like it should go to the top of their priority list.But we were also really tired and it took a really long time for them to deliver the pack and play. We even called to make sure they didn't forget us. But they finally brought it over an hour later and we were finally able to go to bed!
Congratulations! Let's see how many trips you end up taking...We headed over to guest relations to become Annual Passholders!!!
This doesn't sound good at all.the CM was super nice and assured me that everything was fixed with DH's magic band. Spoiler alert: it wasn't.
He also really enjoyed the food offerings here - especially the mac and cheese.
Oooh, Izzy would love that too. Don't make me add anymore ADRs to our May trip! Can't do it...I took Luke down and let him dance. He had a really good time dancing and was sad to see the band go.
What a great moment. That was definitely something we noticed bringing Izzy the first time - all the little random details that you take for granted take on a new life when seen though your kid's eyes. We spent a LONG time running joyfully back and forth across the trolley tracks.Luke was so enthralled with these sidewalk lights. We stayed here and played for quite a while. This was definitely a "stop and smell the roses" kind of moment. It was one of those Disney details that I previously walked right by, but now here we were appreciating it through the eyes of a toddler. It was really a magical moment.
Oh no! He is having a bad run of Magic Band luck this trip.However, as we were getting off the ride, DH's magic band popped off and flew into the ride mechanism.

That's for sure!Oh no! He is having a bad run of Magic Band luck this trip.
Subscribing! We are taking our daughter who will be 1-year old the same dates that you were there 10/31 - 11/7!
Wow, Dug would LOVE that! That is so completely up his alley.Our first food stop was in Scotland for the seared sea scallop with spinach-cheddar gratin and crispy bacon.
Mmmm, I remember having this back in 2011 (sigh, has it been that long since we've been to F&W?!) Yummy! Sorry it wasn't as good as before, though.Our next stop was Greece where I had the griddled Greek cheese with pistachios and honey.
Nice way to finish off the night! And they should absolutely have pretzel bread!Our final booth stop of the night was Canada. I had the Canadian Cheddar Cheese Soup with some pretzel bread leftover from lunch. This was so good! It was so much better with the bread. Why can't they just serve it at Food and Wine with a piece of pretzel bread? I would pay extra.
I guess at least there is the option to walk back, but at night when you're tired, not the first choice.or should I say another family in the same boat?
