I wonder if it also closes for a random half hour between 11:00-11:30? We walked so FAR and the place was closed... it was pretty annoying! But the resort was definitely pretty.

Day 2, Part 1 When last I left you, M. and I were exhausted and stuffed and heading home from Epcot. I took exactly two photos of our room before crashing into bed. I have read that Saratoga Springs is due for a refurb, and I kind of agree with this. We have stayed at a handful of Disney...

I agree with you-- except for stay at a non skyliner resort (Saratoga) the bus service was so abysmal (esp for rope drop) we had to uber anyway. I feel like bus service is :mad: kind of across board these days? It's totally worth a "long" skyliner if you have any downtime at all. At least...

Day 1, Part 2 When last we left you, Marjorie and I were subsiding on nothing but a (shared) Mickey pretzel. On an ordinary day, that would lead to extreme grumpiness and weakness... but on a Disney Day, we were powering through giddily. I guess this was partly because we were eagerly...

YES! Nothing compares to that first-day-feeling. I wish I could bottle it for a gloomy Sunday afternoon like this one! They are stunning. And they tie in so beautifully to the skyliner I feel you on the trip abandoning. I am really trying to change my wicked ways!! If only because I love...

I LOVE the nightime shows (even RoL, though admittedly the others are all better) but I have started to learn that hitting rope drop in the AM and making it to these nighttime shows -- esp in summer, because it gets dark so late, is really tough to do.

Well, I'm back! And after four picture perfect days at Disney, one one horrendous day of travel (and I mean day, as in 24 hours) I'm reading to start combating my serious case of PDD with some trip report writing. Day 1, Part 1: Joyriding a Whole Lot of Disney Transit Marjorie and I jumped...

Oh my gosh Grand Destino looks amazing in your photo! And I love that, tired as you all must have been, Gwen had the energy for a jammy selfie!

I’m excited to follow along!

I’m so sorry for abandoning you! I will try harder this time!! Welcome aboard! thank you! I’m looking forward to having them (I leave Wednesday morning!)

The All Important Trip Logistics When: January 1-4, 2020 We have spent the last week in Sarasota, Florida, basking in the natural beauty here with Marjorie's parents. If I can't be at Disney, this is the next best place. We are remaining here until New Year's day, at which point we are leaving...

Chapter Links Here's the Plan Day 1, Part 1 Day 1, Part 2

Welcome, dear reader(s)! Let's get something on the table before I begin-- my name is Amy, and I'm a chronic trip report abandoner. I think this will be my third attempt at a report so far, and they have all stalled terribly. But this time will be different, I promise! So, first, of all...

I’m really enjoying your report! You really fill your days, which is impressive with two little ones!

Day 2-- Good News, Bad News I shot out of bed on Saturday morning. I was beaming with happiness, because... Well, I was at Disney, that part was obvious. Less exciting (but mitigated by the first news) was the fact that I was now a *shudder* 30 year old. Anyway, I hopped out of bed (at 6 am)...

I just binge read your entire trip report. What an AMAZING family vacation... until it wasn't, ugh! I'm a preschool teacher, so I totally get the bodily fluids, and I can't imaging how upsetting that must have felt on a (super expensive!) Disney trip. Following along to find out about the weather!!!

I'm just catching up on this TR. You were there just ahead of me (I remember following on Insta!) and the Lovebugs were SWARMING when I got there! Also, this GIF is the cutest ever. How did you make it?

I interrupt your regularly scheduled programming to bring you this BREAKING NEWS UPDATE!! 215 days until we are back in the world!! In just a few (super long) months, Marjorie and I will leave our new home in Indiana to be in our second favorite place in the world (Sarasota, Florida!) We...

A Practically Perfect Ending to a Practically Perfect Day (part 2!) So, after 7 attractions with D and A, we were changing our plans significantly. Now see, here's the thing about the way I do Disney-- I craft my touring plan to the second. I review it and map my route out ahead of time. I am a...

A Perfect Ending to a Perfect Magic Kingdom Day When we left off, D and A had just arrived. And what is the first thing any tourist must do in the Magic Kingdom? Why, pose for a photo in front of the castle, of course! D & A were being incredibly good sports, who happily donned my two extra...
