I am very excited. This will be our first time to the dark side. I took my girls years ago to Disney world and loved it.
Im the mom and I will be bringing my 19 year old daughter, this is her graduation present. Also bringing my 21 year old daughter who happens to have down syndrome. And last but not least my poor 16 year old nephew who will be rooming with all us females.
I will be giving an update about our trip with all the high lights and hopefully can give any tips to other families with kids with special needs. 21 yo dd is also gluten free. I will be packing some GF items like bread and rolls and some crackers. I have checked out all the menus and it seems that there will be some items she can eat but it seems like a lot of the stuff will be the same for her.
I'm hoping the park is as disability friendly as WDW was.
We will be staying at RPR and I already found out they have upgraded our room to a water view. YIPEE. So far so good. I am using Happy Limo services and that has been booked and double checked. They have been very accomadating as I have changed the times twice to make sure I give myself enough time through airport security. They also will let you make a 15 minute grocery stop. I already have my park tickets through Undercover tourist mailed to my house. Now do I sign them now or when we get there?
My plan is that we should get to the hotel around 1300 on Wednesday the
26th. I will check in and then scoot off to Universal right away. We will spend the afternoon there, eat dinner at Citywalk then back to the park to see 100 year spectacular as that is the only night its on when we are there. We are not doing HHN as my daughter with down syndrome is just too scared of it. Then we have three more days of fun and excitment. I will be renting a wheelchair for my daughter and myself to use as I have Rhuematoid Arthritis and I don't think there is really a lot of sitting places for us to rest.
If anybody has any tips or ideas Im taking down all ideas. Thanks much
