Not sure I'm going to do a whole big trip report this time, but couldn't be at the fort without posting! It's our first full day here and we're loving it! Right now DH is at the camper getting the littles to bed and I'm sitting at the pool watching the 3 older kids swim. As always we're in awe of how easy the fort makes it for us to have a great vacation. We had some rain today, but we used the time to hit the grocery store. The morning was filled with the magic of MK and the new fantasyland. We're in the 1200 loop this time (never had that one before) and our site is huge. Love it! Epcot is tomorrow so fingers crossed for weather like we had this morning.

Welcome home to the Fort. Weather for the week looks good. Have a magical vacation and give Mickey a hug.

You do know that it's required to at least post a fishing report at least once ever trip to the Fort,,right? It's right there in that list of rules they gave you when you checked in (really small print).

Thanks for the TR. Enjoy the magic. Rain chance is decreasing so hopefully no rain.

Haha can do BamaEd! We had a great day today. Kids slept well last night and we were ready to hit Epcot today. We met up with some friends there. DH broke TestTrack (no idea what happened but his car went down halfway through his ride and shortly after it was down for a long time. Then we came back to the campground for some swimming and dinner. Tonight I took the older 3 over to MK (gotta love those boats). DH stayed with the littles and got them to bed. We hit a couple of rides, got some dole whip and came back shortly before fireworks started. I think I got the best part of the deal tonight. ha! Epcot was SO quiet today - we literally jumped right onto every ride! Crazy! That's why we love coming down this week. It's awesome! Tomorrow is a campground day, which is much needed!

Gotta love those ferries! We spent more time at MK this trip than we ever have before because it was so easy to catch a boat over and back. The only thing for us was that most of our visits to MK were in the evening after visiting other parks during the day - we tended to close out our nights there. We learned that if you go ride stuff while everyone else is watching the parade and fireworks, you can just walk right onto rides.

Hope the rest of your trip is just as magical as these first few days have been!

This is the perfect strategy. We learned that on our June trip a few years ago and we do it most nights.

It has been a magical week! sorry no real updates - we can't get wifi at the campsite and I hate typing on my phone. I've been writing daily updates though and hope to get them posted along with some pictures soon! We still have 2 days to go. Already a bit sad to be thinking of packing up. We're in the line to meet Ariel for a 2nd time right now. MK is more crowded today than it has been all week!
