The Elusive Fourth Fastpass+: a family trip report
Hello fellow DIS members! This is my first trip report, because my family never really took a TON of pictures on our trips. This was our sixth trip to Disney World (we’ve been to Disneyland one other time, so I guess seven trips in total). This trip was so so so much better than expected, since we were worried about the terrible weather forecast and the spring break crowds. A quick disclaimer: Some parts of the trip report are not in Disney, because we were also there for Phillies Spring Training and stayed in Clearwater. I won’t be upset if you skip those parts. Trust me.
Now onto introductions! My name is Carly, and I’m 17 years old. I’m a junior in high school, an all-around band geek (drumline life), and a barista at Starbucks. (Yes, that's a Little Mermaid musical shirt! I played violin in the pit orchestra at my school. I know ever single song by heart.)
favorite park: DHS
favorite DW attraction: Great Movie Ride
favorite Disney character: Lightning McQueen
Next is my 14-year-old sister, Rae, who is in eighth grade. She’s super into music along with me, and is a singer. She is a huge Stitch and Lion King fan, and loves the Enchanted Tiki Room.

Next up is my madré, who is pretty darn cool. She’s on the DIS here too, as TraceyPoppins. She’s really into The Monkees and David Bowie (bless his soul ): ).
favorite park: MK
favorite DW attraction: Tower of Terror
favorite Disney character: Mary Poppins
Finally, my dad. He’s singer in a band and along with my mom, he got my sister and me into music. He pretends to not like Disney and was really excited to go to spring training for the first time (except he shows no emotion about it). He LOVES Phillies baseball and also really likes getting different food and drink items in the World Showcase.
