Just got back...it was awesome!

[Camno's Mama]

We just came home on Saturday from a great trip to the World! We usually kind of take it easy and just do a couple of parks and relax in the warm weather when we go, but this time we got a four day pass! We visited Animal Kingdom, Epcot and Magic Kingdom twice!

The kids weren't huge fans of Epcot, so that wasn't our favorite, although some of the rides in Futureworld are so fun. We loved Animal Kingdom...that park is just always awesome. Magic Kingdom was the best though. We got the Dream Fastpasses! It was literally the most magical day I've ever had at MK. We got to walk onto the rides without waiting in lines...meaning that we got to ride more rides that we would have been able to do! With two little guys, avoiding lines is the key to a happy day!

The weather was gorgeous...even a little hot! My kids hit pretty much every one of those fountains that come out of the ground. They really loved the ones in DTD and the one at AK!

Anyway...I could go on and on! I hope that everyone enjoys the kind of experience that we had! Great bonding time for the family and the sunshine never hurts!

Welcome home! So glad you had a great trip! I can only imagine how nice it would be to have dream fastpasses, especially with little ones!

I'm so happy to hear you had a wonderful time, I just took my daughter to the airport she's going to DW with on a school trip , her first trip alone with the parents. I was a little jealous I trying to go as a chaperone but you know teenagers she was totally against that so I'll have wait until October our next trip.

I hate to ask, but how were the crowds?

We are going down on the 14th. We have only been one other time in May. We went in 2005 around same time period, but it was Star Wars Weekends and DHS was very crowded, so I guess I associate that crowd level with May!!!

Awww, sounds like you had a great time! I'm always amazed at kids not enjoying Epcot- but I see you have very little ones still. Maybe when they are a bit older, they'll enjoy it more

Sounds magical! I think its the best place for family time, we always count our blessings and feel so lucky to experience these times with our children. Glad your family made some great memories together.

Disney was my first trip without parents too! Grad Nite 1997, the best!!!

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but what is a dream fastpass and how do you get them?
TIA

They are passes that are given out randomly as part of the "Year of a Million Dreams" promotion. It's all a matter of luck It is like a hard card on a lanyard that has little tabs that break off, one for each of the fastpass rides in the park.

We just got back on Friday and also had a great trip!!! Were you able to walk on all the rides? It seemed strange because we got onto all the rides we wanted and didn't have to deal with lines. I miss the sun ... BOO-HOO!
