We arrived yesterday and are soooo excited to be here!!!
The Fort looks maybe half full. They have several of the loops on Fort Wilderness Trail closed , 900-1100 I think and only 2 campers in 700. They are repaving it and we think that is why the loops are empty. We are in loop 100 and love it!
Listening to Wishes as we speak and I am just so thankful to be here! With all my families health problems, we were not sure we would make it. We are just glad to be away from home, but then again, coming here feels like coming home!
We couldn't believe the parking prices for MK as we came through on the way to the campground!
Soooo glad we stay on site AND have AP's! I think the prices have almost doubled! As for online check-in...IMHO and based on my experience it is for the birds. It didn't save us any time and they only had one lane open with 5+ campers in front of us. They opened some lanes after we got in line behind everyone
but I still don't think it saves time to do online check-in.
They gave us 207 but I asked to move to 100 and happily they gave us 105!
It is a wonderful site! I will post pics(see below
) later. I put up my Dis sign but unfortunately I didn't have time to print them in color. It looked so cool(Thanks Rog!) and the B&W doesn't do it justice.
After we got set up, we went to MK to get my sweet 15yo daughter's birthday gift card and shopped then crashed! Today we went to MK and it was not too crowded. We got there around 11 and left 4. We rode Buzz, TTA, did Laugh Floor and Carousel. We ate at Cosmic Ray's and then had a pretty bad rain shower. After waiting that out, we rode the Barnstormer, did some shopping and rode the train to the front. We watched the parade and went back to rest and cook some shrimp on the barbie. Had a great day and can't wait for tomorrow!
I will try to post pictures this week when we buy internet so I could really use some help on posting them. I don't remember how and am too lazy to look it up. Anyone want to help me out with this since I am now 6 Disney trips behind on my trip reports since joining the Disboards? I don't want to wait on this one.
