You bet I .......DID'NT!!!
Welcome to my trip report of misery...I did not have a magical time (no fault of The World!)
Let me start off with saying if you do not get along with ppl in your everyday life you will NOT get along with them in The World. I had unrealistic expectations.I feel bad for the people staying next door to us. I really do.
It's no secret I am pooh sized . The misery started very early on. My mom and brother arrived for our flight and immediately began to talk about how fat I am.I ignored thier comments but I was really bothered deep down inside. I went to grab chips and a soda and upon my return my brother berated me saying "Your fat___ got snacks but didnt bring anybody else anything this is what im talking about you are always thinking about food"
He said it so loud people turned around and glared at him. It was so uncalled for. My mother sat back and laughed. DYSFUNCTION AT IT'S FINEST .
The flight was uneventful and me and my two kiddos were super excited. We felt the heat IMMEDIATELY. I could not believe the drastic diffrence in temperature
.My brother started cursing at me whenever I walked slow . I told him repeatedly DO NOT curse in front of ppl's children. He argued me down about it. He argued me down about EVERYTHING.
We walked to the ME desk and boarded our bus to POP . I got everyone checked in. My brother was holding my son's hand when I went to check in. I walked toward them and asked where was he ....he was gone My son is 2 and does not speak due to autism so I was really scared and crying. We searched for 10 minutes finally a woman found him outside wandering by the pool. I was so angry at him and he was nonchalant and refused to take ANY blame for losing my son . He blamed ME saying well your kids dont listen. They have autism!!
We argued for a good hour in the room. I was so upset I did'nt even want to go to a park . Eventually I decided to let it go and try to have a good time. The weather was AWFUL. It was hot,humid and unbearable. We had a 5:00 pm reservation at Ohana's .
We reach MK! Uh ohThe walk to the monorail was brutal . That hill is just so annoying especially in that weather. We get to Ohana's and I was so disappointed. It felt extremly rushed. They bought everything out at once . Everytime we bit into something they were bringing something else out. The dishes were piled on top of eachotherThere was no room on the table and they still kept bringing more stuff out The wait staff was'nt very friendly. It was rushed and we waited and waited for a soda refill . I finally got the waiter and asked for a refill and he acted annoyed by my request and was slow to bring my refill back out . We left stuffed and annoyed that we paid cash for that meal. I thought the food was too sweet and I will never go back .
We go back to the hotel and I took the kids swimming. It was awesome. It was just the three of us. They were so happy and playing in the water. I was relaxed and laying in the kiddie pool with them surrounded by the beautiful palm trees . I was on
. We get back in the room and immediately my brother remarked that i looked like shamu and need to free willy. My mother laughed as usual.
I went straight to bed. Ive gotten so used to thier comments that i just tend to ignore them and accept them.
DAY 2
The next day I was up early for rope drop . Me the kids and my mom went to MK. My brother stayed behind . I thought MK was beautiful. I did not get a guest assistance card because I left thier doctor paperwork at home and thought i could not get a card .We waited and waited and waited for rides. It was brutal. My kids were really anxious and did not do well with the waits . They could not understand why they had to wait so long. My legs KILLED me on Snow white adventures. That thing is small and im realllllly tall! I was praying for the ride to end!
It was very hot outside. We walked to most of the lands,saw Phillarmagic ,lots of rides and shows. The crowds were definetly manageable. I fit on ALL of the rides
. My feet were REALLY sore. We were at MK from 9:00 am to 9:45 pm..I wanted to see Wishes but my feet hurt so bad I just wanted to get out of there. The walk to the bus was torture. Each step was painful .We got to the resort got our mugs and had dinner at POP. My mom was still at MK she met up with my brother and we went our seperate ways.I went straight to bed.
DAY 3
Animal Kingdom
OHHHHHHHH BOY!!!It felt Africa Hot in AK!!I was pouring sweat like a faucet.It was torture.Once again we had no GA pass so we waited for Kali River Rapids for about 90 minutes and just like that it was over...All of that wait for a 3 minute ride.
We walked to EE. It was walk on! We rode it four times in a row! I loved it! I even threw my hands in the air the last time . We came back to the room showered and went to downtown disney. I told them about wolfgang puck and instead of thanking me they decided to berate me for knowing all about the QS places . I was mentally exhausted by that point and just downright depressed.I dont know why they insult me so much.My mother really disappointed me but she always does so that's not a surprise. By this point I was miserable and just wanted to go home so I can permanently cut them off . I went to the world of disney and shopped until I dropped. I got some really great stuff!I also got a make your own crispie treat....O-M-G .... It was wayyyyyy too rich and decadent for me to even finish several days later!I ended up throwing it away but boy was it good! I LOVE downtown disney. I just thought it was beautiful...the stores...the atmosphere ..the music. I was in heaven.
Day 4
Epcot is today! We had a HUGE fight this morning btw . I decided to make the best of it. Epcot is.....I did'nt like it much. I thought Soarin was amazing. I got front row THREE times! However this was everyone's least favorite park. The world showcase was OK. The drinks were watered down. I thought the inside of Mexico was GORGEOUS...I loved it. The restaurant background and lighting was superb. I didnt like the menu though so i doubt ill dine there in the future. We did test track and I was humiliated beyond belief. I struggled with the seat belt my face was red and I was so embarassed. The woman next to me couldnt buckle herself in until I got mine done. My hips were just too wide . My brother was on the line and i looked up and he mouthed "get out the car fatty" . The woman next to me was very sweet and she buckled me in and we rode. I did not enjoy it . I was too embarassed . I was crying by the time I got off test track . My kids were at the hotel with my mom. None of them cared for Epcot and decided to leave very early on . I walked to the bathroom to freshen up and I stood up to watch Illuminations. I saw a good chunk of it but my feet were sore and I had a hard time standing in one spot at that point . One thing I will say is ppl act offended at the sight of me eating ANYTHING. I grabbed some nachos,churro and a diet coke and I was stared at in a nasty way. Excuse me but why does what I eat or look like offend YOU ? I wore my bathing suit to the pool and some ppl were openly rude.If you are skinny /average sized OK but dont look down on me because im heavy .You can SEE all of my problems but geez why dont you pull out the skeletons in your closet before you judge me .I went straight to bed after Illuminations.
Day 5
Today was Hollywood studios . I was done with my mom and brother at this point. I was burned out. I could never do anything to please them. I just took the kids. I decided to try and get a GA pass and i got one! What a world of a diffrence having this card did for us ! We did great movie ride, toy story mania and voyage of a mermaid . We also had an ADR for prime time cafe. I loved the food in prime time cafe but the waiter scared my kids. My dd thought the waiter was yelling at her in a mean way . She just did'nt get the whole thing. We came for the food not the character experience . We all had the fried chicken meal and I had a strawberry sundae . Everything was delicious!!The waiter was good too . He was very nice in general. I really wanted to ride the tower of terror and rock and roll coaster but i had the kids so i could not. At one point I ran into my mom and brother and i kept walking. They walked behind me teasing me and chanting what's wrong room for one more...one of us...one of us ...one of us....They got that from the simpson show. I told them to leave me alone . Everytime I walked they walked right into me and followed me .My mom was so close everytime I took a step she would bump into me . I kept my composure and told them firmly to get away from me. They waved thier fast passes to tower and RNR in my face and laughed . I grabbed my kiddos and we got frozen lemonades and grabbed seats for Fantasmic. I LOVED it ! What an amazing show ...soooooo worth the wait! Mickey was so cute at the end of the boat ride he looked like he was pointing directly at us . That made dd's day!She is still talking about it. We went back to the resort and I started packing. This is the ONLY park where my feet were not screaming by the end of the day . I was so excited to be going home. I wanted to get away from my mom and brother so badly I could taste it. They ruined my trip. The endless barage of insults , the arguing it was just totally ruined. I also wanted to get away from all of the coke products
Disney PLEASE change it up! I was sooooo sick of coke ,sprite and orange!
Day 6 Departure day!
YAY!!!!! I was up bright and early. I packed up alot of our stuff and than i changed me and the kiddos into our swimsuits for a final dip! The pool water was warm and we enjoyed it. All of a sudden the pool got VERY cold and we hightailed it out of there .We showered , got dressed and me and the kiddos left for a final afternoon at MKWOW that GA card was a godsend. WHAT A DIFFRENCE. The GA card really helped alot. We rode everything except the big rides 
We had lunch at Casey's the corndog nuggets were insanely delicious!!!
I love them Ohhhhhh how I love them We had a really nice time the final day. It was just me ,my kids and our card. I wonder how my trip would have turned out if it was just me and them and the card from DAY ONE...
It would have been totally diffrent. I would have been relaxed, not insulted to the point of tears everyday and i probaly would have had a good time.
I had a nice time despite all of the problems. However I wont be going back to disney for atleast another year or two. Ds is still too small to do the bigger rides. He should be a decent height by the time he is 5 or so . We had to sit out on alot of major attractions.
DD wants to go back immediately. I feel like I should have a do over however Im burnt out. Im glad to be back home . Ill do Disney again in a couple years or so.

.... than you are. I'm sure you may have gotten some looks but I'm also sure that your mother's and brother's insessant psychological abuse towards you made you see what probably wasn't there from strangers. I've been to WDW a few times, I wear shorts, I wear a bathing suit and I don't really remember anyone being so horribly overtly rude about my size.
But I'm so glad that you spent some time away from your mom and brother and that you did eventually get a GAC - at least you know what a difference it can make so that your next trip (without mom and DB?) will be amazingly better.
. I would like to stay at Fort Wilderness one day . I just think it would be a nice change of pace but i realllllly liked POP. I could spend a week just hanging in the resort ! I liked the tv selections and I loved the pool area and the arcade . The food is a wholeeeeeeeeee other story! Good grief the food was bad! That was the WORST chinese food we ever tasted! The pizza was bland tasting. The burgers just looked gross! They were all sitting there already made! They didnt even heat it up! They just take it out and hand it to you...NO THANKS BUDDY. I didnt have a single burger the entire time I was there and i was on the QSDP........Wolfgang Puck Express
