WHEW. We just got back from a super fun 8 day Disney vacay. I wouldn't call it a vacay though. lol I'm going to take it a few days at a time and get the trip on here.
My sister and her fam and my Dad went with us. Most people couldn't travel with that much family, but it's our jam! We are already planning a HUGE trip for next year!
Day 1 was our travel day! We had a super early flight and were in Orlando at like 9. We went to our resort, Port Orleans-Riverside, then caught the boat to Disney Springs! The boat was SO fun and we were glad we didn't have to travel by bus. We ate lunch and shopped for several hours before catching the bus back to the resort. We had a dinner reservation at Chef Mickey's so we wanted to freshen up!
Chef Mickey's was loads of fun, but the service was TERRIBLE! They made us wait 45 minutes for a table when we HAD A RESERVATION. Then the wait staff was SLOOOOWWWWW. Um, hello, do you see all these 7 kids at the table? Get with it! It was made up for when the characters started coming around. The kids-even the teenage ones-had the best time!
After dinner we called it a night because we had a full day at Magic Kingdom the next day!
We are ALL about getting to the parks early. At rope drop or VERY soon after. This is huge, people. The crowds are low and it's not so hot.
The first thing we did at MK was ride Pirates of the Caribbean. Mia was terrified. Everyone else enjoyed it but for the rest of the trip she was reminding us she hated it. haha! The next thing we rode was Splash Mountain. Well, the cool kids did! haha! Wet that early in the day was a no-go for half of us. Y'all know I was down for it no matter how wet I got.
And we GOT SOAKED. I've never gotten that wet on it before. I told my sister before I went to get on that she was a party pooper and wouldn't even get that wet because she was not riding. When I came back she laughed. haha!
We planned 2 days at MK and this day we tried to stay to the left side of the park. We rode Big Thunder Mountain, Seven Dwarfs Mine Train, Jungle Cruise, The Magic Carpets of Aladdin, Haunted Mansion....I can't remember what else. Basically all the things. OH and we did the Hall of Presidents! Don't miss this when you go!
We had lunch at Liberty Tree Tavern...It was delicious!
I think that pretty much sums up days 1 and 2!
Cason and Griffin are BFF!
