It will be at least a couple of years before we go back. Next year will probably be a beach vacation like Cape Canaveral or California (if we can swing that one). The problem with California is that I always compare it to a Florida vacation and Florida is always cheaper so California gets put in the background again.
Also, the next time we go to Disney we would like to stay at either the Yacht Club again or at the Contemporary. We've been spoiled by the Yacht Club and much preferred it over POR. So, we need to save for that.
My favorite park at WDW. Dream Fastpasses
, woowhoo. 
Glad that your family won them.
Are you going back soon?
Oh...she knows! 
I also want to try BTMRR too....have you tried it at night??
So Buff get out there and find your Dream!!! 
happened. Our bus driver asked us if we were going to AKL and we said yes so he took us there directly!!!! How cool is that! I forgot to mention that Belle fell asleep 
on me during the bus ride over so we put her in the stroller to nap once we got off the bus. 
About 6:25 the device lights 
up but DH is no where in sight. I wait a few minutes then leave Liz by the doors to snag DH and Cindy when they return. I take the elevator with Belle downstairs and get in line at the check in. I look up and here comes the rest of my family! Apparently DH had Cindy on video. Here it is:
We got a huge table and brought the sleepy babe and stroller in with us. Disney is so kind about this situation. Our server was nice and brought us drinks right away. The girls colored and then we started taking turns going up to get our food. Ahhhh the flavors were excellent. I loved the soup and dressing on the salad. I had to have seconds on that. I couldnt believe Belle was missing out on all of this good food. We took our time and made lots of trips. I dont know about you but even with DD9 I go up to the buffet and help her but apparently that was lost on some parents. 
They let their kids go up by themselves and they would inevitably touch the food. DH had to speak to several unattended children and also one child who parents were there but oblivious. I guess even the OP had to eat sometime. When we finished dinner, it was time for the dessert bar. I had heard mixed reviews on the Zebra Domes and so I had Liz try one first
shes the pickiest of all. Her eyes lit up when she took a bit and she loved them! I concur! We also had cookies and some kind of pie for dessert. Boma is da bomb I tell ya! I would never skip this place on our future trips
Thank you Mr. Server. I went up and picked out some stuff I thought she would like and put them in the cups with lids. We paid and were rolled out 
of Boma. I was tired and full! 
Pixie-Dusted Disney Day!!! To top it all off, DH decided to taxi it back to POR. We just walked out the front door and there was a cab waiting. Belle woke up as we were getting in the cab and I worried about not having a car seat. Course the guy drove like a maniac 
I was almost laughing/gasping in the back seat. Its funny how you spend your entire life strapping your kids in until you get to Disney and there isnt a car seat/seat belt to be found! I think he got us to POR in 5 min. but we were still in one piece! 
The little girl continued around the pool splashing other kids, pushing and trying to take things from them. We had brought a little ring so when she took that I let her play with it for a bit. She seemed 
mad or jealous that Cindy, Liz and Belle were playing and swimming so nicely together. The next time she splashed Belle, Belle splashed her right back and then it was a splashing match. I said to stop and she looked me dead in the eye and kept going. The look in her eye gave it away. Have you seen the look in the eye of a child who is desperate? Who isnt taken care of? As a teacher I see it a lot. So rather than make a scene, I picked Belle up and moved all of us over to the other side of the pool. Dont worry though, the dad never saw it or did anything about the girl. At this point I felt sorry for her. Clearly there was something wrong with her
she was mean and out of control but obviously she was ignored and alone. Soon thereafter the dad was done on the phone and they left.
our friends from the night before showed up and played with the girls in the pool and the mom and I chatted. It was nice to hear about their day. At this point it was 9:45 pm so we said our good-byes and I got the girls out. I showered them off and wrapped them in towels. I clearly heard the hot tub calling my name, so while the girls sat on chairs drying off, I soaked in the tub 
for 10 min. Ahhhhhh, that was nice! But we did have to get to bed for our big Epcot day. I changed the girls into their PJs (not Liz of course) and we headed back to the room.
