Day 1 – Travel Day Alex and I awoke early (though I did not note the time), finished up last minute packing (got to get one last use out of those toiletries before packing them away) and hit the road. This is us getting ready to pull out of the parking deck at our apartment building. It...

Welcome back! Our trip is long over and I’ve been putting off writing the trip report. Mainly because I don’t have nearly as many pictures as I would like. Alex and I always say we’re going to take more but then we end up caught in the moment and forget to take out our cameras. Alex is...

Thank you, kaitmaree! Leaving in less than 24 hours and haven't packed yet!

Hello readers! My name is Ashley - welcome to my Pre-Trip Report. Let's dive right in, shall we? I leave the day after tomorrow (Saturday, October 22nd) for a five night, six day trip to the LA area including one day at Universal Studios and two days at Disneyland and Disney's California...

Thank you for all of the congratulations, everybody! I think my family's starting to get tired of me, though. I have a two and a half year old niece who watched a lot of Disney movies and every time the Cinderella Castle Disney logo comes on at the beginning of the movie I yell, "I got...

Honestly, after all that, the rest of this Trip Report is going to sound somewhat...boring and normal, but you gotta do it right? Alex and I had found out the day before that Alex's uncle and aunt on his dad's side were in WDW the same time we were so we had decided to meet for breakfast at...

Thanks for joining in rewilliams!

By the time we left it was just after 11 pm and we wandered somewhat giddily down Main Street. I think this pretty much sums up the day. It was late enough that the monorail was no longer running so we took the ferry back to the TTC along with two other couples who were vacationing...

So we sat our happy booties back down and got our actual desserts which were all sorts of chocolate and Ariel and Snow White came back for round two to congratulate us. Snow White asked if I met my prince in a scary forest and I said, "Yeah, a scary forest called Craigslist," and...

It seemed like it was taking awhile for dessert to arrive but eventually our waitress showed up with a silver covered plate which seemed overly fancy to me, but I rolled with it and opened it up to discover an etched glass slipper. Yowza, right? I was well aware of the glass slippers that can...

Is it the moment you've been waiting for? Quite possibly? We met Cindy. And then we waited forever to be called upstairs. It was probably about 45 minutes or so before we were called but we did get to see adorable kids, mostly girls, meeting Cinderella, so that was cute. We...

Our ADR for Cinderella's Royal Table wasn't until 9:10 and we had plenty of time so we went back to New Fantasyland to take in the sights and just look around in shops. About 15 minutes before our ADR time I figured we'd hop on over and check in. Apparently it doesn't work that way at...

Oh my dog, the bus back to Magic Kingdom that evening? Chock full o' cheerleaders. And the bus driver was hockey stick bent on cramming us all in there so it was standing room only and you got really friendly with your neighbor. Well, not with them so much as with their body parts. But...

It was almost 9 am at this point and the park was about to open to regular people (you heard me) so we made our way over to Adventureland where we were greeted by more rope until the 9 am opening. Pretty sure we hit up Jungle Cruise first. We had a Fastpass for later that day but it was just...

People. We are at the fourth and final park day of this short and wonderful trip. This was our Magic Kingdom day. I know this Trip Report has been thrown together somewhat haphazardly and there haven't been a ton of pictures. But I was not kidding around on Magic Kingdom day. Pay attention...

By this point you have noticed that Alex and I 100% failed with the food porn. We like food, we don't take pictures of it before we eat it, we just eat it. Boma was lovely, and gorgeous, and wonderful. I had been there once before and I was trying to do new restaurants this trip because I...

We did the African walking trail next. Oh my Flying Spaghetti Monster, how cute is this guy. Poor little thing was just intent on keeping his family and pals out of danger, always on the lookout. I just wanted to pick him up and say, "You're in Disney. Nothing's going to get you here...

Facebook update of the morning: Disney's Animal Kingdom day today. Time to get my Expedition Everest on! Again we bussed it on over to the park and got there just after rope drop. The Picture in Front of the Park Icon tradition continues. This day in particular I am struggling to...

After lunch we watched Lights! Motors! Action! for Alex's benefit. I enjoyed the sitting down process. Afterwards I really wanted to ride Tower of Terror as it's my favorite ride in all of WDW. Alex is just not having it at all so he decided to go to Walt Disney: One Man's Dream. We had...

Hey, I found this picture from our DHS morning. My imgur album is not in chronological order. Everybody say aww!
