Checking out ride mechanisms?? Sounds like a future engineer to me!

I have totally not figured out how we are going to get through any gift shops without Paxton also wanting every single train/tram/monorail in sight!

What a GORGEOUS view from your Yacht Club room!! Jealous!

 

[PrincessInOz]

Yay! You started a TR.

Subbing in. And that IS a great view.

He is so inquisitive!

I get that. One thing that works for Devyn is telling him we can ride the real train while at Disney and that will get him out of those stores for a short time!

The view was so amazing. I doubt i ever get another one at least for a long time

HEY!! Welcome!
Thank you!
I really loved that view!
How was your trip????

Although we were in love, we were out in no time!

On our way to the pool before we found the short cut.

We got there 10 after and it was not crowded. We made a pit stop to the waterslide but Dev was scared to go down. I tried to get in the water to stand at the end of the slide but It was deeper than I thought and I sort of fell in the pool and even though I could stand in the water I screamed my head off because I NEVER LEARNED TO SWIM!! Shh! And well my screaming did not help my child so we went back to the sand bottom and we had a wonderful time!

I did not take many pictures because I even got out there! I felt real bad for those who had to see this body in a swimsuit.
We were there all morning. I was going to stay until the rest of my family arrived but my child shocked me. After 3 and half hours at the pool he came to me and said he was ready to lay down! Now my child does not nap. He hasn’t since he was 2 years old! I took him and washed him really quick. He must have been tired because within the 2 minutes I was putting milk in his cup, he was sleep!!!

This nap thing has never happened since then BTW!!


So my child napped and I watch the Disney queen Stacy! I have missed her. An hour later my mom called that they just dropped some people off at boardwalk and were the last people on the bus!
I was soo excited I haven’t seen my sister and nephew since I moved 10 months ago and it had been a few months since I've seen my Mom! I was so happy. Well I had enough being in Disney for over a day! I needed to get to a park!!!

 

[leshunlenese]

The whole gang was finally here.

The boys were very excited!

We were finally on our way to a park and since we had ADR at garden grill at 4:20. We went to Epcot!!

Remember the beautiful morning we had at the pool. It was gone!
It was pouring as we walked out

However, the walk was relatively quick! No wonder people love this area!!

We made our way over to the land!

Dinner and characters at Garden grill were still amazing as ever!

I waited a little too late to get a food pic! It was messy but very good!

Dev got a cupcake for his birthday!

We finished with 20 minutes left to use our soarin Fast passes! The magic band I think is wonderful. It was so easy to use and never felt weird on. I like the idea of setting up fast passes because we were able to have some late start to our days without having to get up. I heard people could still use KTTW cards to get fast passes but we did not need it. Crowds were low all week!

After soarin we went over to test track to use our fast pass. This was Dev first ride on test track and he loved it!

The boys loved playing in the cars after the ride. Pretty soon it was 8:30. We made a stop to look through mouse gears and headed toward WS for illuminations. Unfortunately my camera died somewhere between soarin and test track but we saw the beginning of illuminations before heading out. We had a busy day tomorrow!

Next: Morning at the studios followed by a villain bash failure!

You never learnt to swim? Not to late to start. And yes, I know what you mean about body issues. In fact, when I finally get round to it, I might have a few words to string together on this topic.

Love the pictures of the boys together. Seems like it was a great family reunion.

 

[khertz]

Haha that pool wore him OUT! I'm so glad DS is still a napper...I am dreading the day when he gives them up! Especially in Disney, because it gives me time to nap too.

He is so darn cute in that Mickey hat! Looks like a lovely dinner.

I'm loving your trip report. Your boy is adorable and so smart! I love your story of him looking all over trying to figure out the carousel!

 

[jojosam]

What great memories you are building with your sun. There is nothing better than quality time!

Thank you!
You are so right!
I love having time with the two of us, especially at our favorite place!

I know right. I took lessons several times but the water just does. like me for some reason. I am trying to work on that as we have our first disney cruise in may but either way, I still will put on that swimsuit! I have a one piece and I do wear shorts over it so its not too bad!

The boys are like best friends! They always have fun together!

This is true! It is not so bad now since he goes to school so I can take a nap when Im off work but usually it never happens since I have so much to do. Except the other day after i went to the dentist. Got a nice nap that day!

He loves that hat and get this. He will only wear that hat when we go to disney or legoland. At home he will not put it on!!!

Thank you so much! He is so smart and asks tons of questions about everything!

Sorry for slacking off. I was trying to wait until I got my photopass pictures but there was a problem with the download and there is a delay. So Here we go!

Friday September 13th


Today I took a leap of faith and we went to HS!
Tonight was the unleash the villains event that we would attend
As usual, I woke up before everyone else and it was a beautiful morning

We were out the door at 8 and to the boat dock! I was getting a little excited with my camera. It was such a beautiful morning!

The boys were a little fond of this thing

We where in line at the turnstiles for almost 15 minutes before we were let into the park. Our first stop was to sign the boys up for Jedi training academy. There was already a line and we were given a 11am time slot but after telling them of our ADR at 11AM, they gave us a 1 pm spot and we took it!

We left and went over to Hollywood boulevard to ride but My sister needed a snack or something for breakfast so she got this lovely pastry which tasted amazing from starring rolls. I am so getting one when I go back next week!!!!! Only 10 more days!!!

This was the DS first trip over 40 inches and The fact that I was extremely excited would be a understatement but I was sad because it just means he is growing up and too fast at that. I thought he would ride TOT. He kept saying all week that he wanted to ride. However, the kid would not go anywhere near tower of terror! I had to give him candy just so he would go through the exit to wait with my mom! She volunteered to stay with dev, she had no interest in riding! My nephew was excited though!



The little boy rode and has informed me he will not ride it again!

I guess we should of road RNRC first as it was working just fine because after TOT we went over and the ride was closed!!!
My poor sister has been trying to get on this coaster her last 3 trips over the past 2 years and it is always closed!!!! Every single time! Maybe next year!!!

We stopped for a photopass that I do not have but hopefully will soon and continued our day at HS.

Just started reading your report. Who could resist that smile of your son on his birthday. Made me smile too.

Now back to reading!

 

[PrincessInOz]

Beautiful sunrise over BCV.

That's a shame about RnRC being down. Its one of my favourite rides at HS. As you said, maybe next year.

Looking forward to Jedi Academy pictures.


And you're heading back in 10 days?? Lucky you!

 

[wiigirl]

Great pics!

I know this feeling!!! I am so ready to take DS on his first Splash Mountain experience, but then I start thinking... "But he will be so old by then!"

Too bad Dev did not want to try ToT, but who knows, maybe it would have scared him from riding anything else, so maybe you were better off letting him skip it? That sucks about RnRC being closed too! Your poor sister. That ride is one of my favorites, so I would be really upset missing it that many trips in a row!

Looks like you all are having a great time on your trip. Joining in!
