The first day we spent some time at Disney Springs! We rented an AirBnb this trip and it wasn't ready so we had time to kill! Side note-we rented the house because a last minute trip with a big family is pretty much a no go at Disney! It ended up saving us a ton of money and was great! We also drove for the first time and I THOROUGHLY enjoyed having our own vehicle and not relying on Disney transportation! AMEN!
Our first park day was spent at Animal Kingdom! This is my favorite park! The rides are amazing and the park is beautiful! We arrived at the park about 5:45 am for a 7am rope drop! We didn't have a fast pass for Flight of Passage so we had to be there unless we wanted to stand in line for hours! The rope dropped and we RAN like crazy people. We didn't have to wait at all and were already off the ride by 7am! :) By lunch we had rode everything in the park, because everyone else was in line for flight of passage! Boom shakalaka! We had a reservation at around 4 at Tiffins-we didn't enjoy it. Gasp!
The next morning we were at Magic Kingdom bright and early! Mia was PUMPED because she was finally tall enough for Splash Mountain! And she loved it! We spent most of the day to the left side of the park because we had two days planned at MK. We had a dinner reservation very late-like 9pm-at Jungle Skipper Canteen! This was our first time to eat there and it was FUN and the food was tasty!
The next day was spent at Epcot! Everyone said this was their favorite day! And it went by the fastest because we were having so much fun! Soarin' is one of our favorite rides! We rode Test Track and everything we could squeeze in before the World Showcase opened!
First thing's first-a margarita and nachos from Mexico! We explored a bit after that and waited for our Lunch reservation at the Nine Dragon's restaurant in China! It was meh BUT BUT BUT-If you know me you know I'm obsessed with looking at cast members name tags to see where they are from and our waitress at the Nine Dragon was FROM THE SAME CITY IN CHINA MIA IS FROM!!!!! So exciting! The waitress kept saying she was so happy!
The rest of the day we explored around the different countries and had the best time!
The next day we went to Hollywood Studios. This day killed it for us. It was INSANELY crowded because of the new Rise of Resistance ride. If you don't already know, you HAVE to be at the park an hour before it opens so that you can be INSIDE the park when it does open to be able to MAYBE get a boarding pass for this ride. Y'all. I've never been around that many people at one time IN MY EVER LOVING BORN DAYS. It was too much. Disney REALLY needs to fix this! We were able to get a boarding pass and rode the ride around 10:30. We arrived at the park at 5:45 am. It opened at 7. We were able to ride Slinky Dog while we waited on our boarding group to be called so that was good! Rise of Resistance was pretty fun, I have to admit that. But, that being said....this crew will not be doing all that again. One and done. Thank you. We waited about 3 hours for the other Star Wars ride-Millennium Falcon and I LOVED it! We rode most of the other rides also-Josh's favorite ride is there-Rockin' Rollercoaster. He ended up not riding because the wait was so long. Reece and Griffin braved the line and had fun on it! :) Overall, not a great day. haha!
OH! We also ate at the Sci-Fi Diner. It was not great and we are pretty sure Peyton got food poisoning there. He didn't feel well the rest of the day and threw up that night!
That brings us to our last park day! Back to Magic Kingdom! It was the BEST DAY EVER! Peyton was thankfully feeling better and we made the most of our last day!
We rode everything we wanted to ride, including Splash Mountain AGAIN 😂 Hey, we were drenched from the rain so we figured why not! haha! We had a dinner reservation at Be Our Guest that night. It was delicious and we rode the 7 Dwarfs Mine Train to end the trip after that! None of us wanted to leave. We always have the best family time in Disney!
