Hello Everyone,
My name is Caroline and I have been writing DR and TRās on the Dis for many years now!
It is an amazing place to learn all about WDW and too meet some wonderful friends!
We are back from a wonderful trip to Universal and WDW.
I am a RN and love my Disney ābubble vacationsā, these trips allow me to forget about work life and live in the moment.
It also doesnāt hurt that I love WDW and most everything about the place!
I have so many precious memories from all of our trips!
A few pictures of a very young Andi and younger me!
I usually travel with my sweet daughter Andi. We have been traveling to WDW on mother and daughter trips since Andi was 10 years old and she is now 22! Time sure does fly!
This trip is a little different because Andi isnāt coming, WHAT?
Yes, you heard it right. My baby girl is an adult now and had adult responsibilities, how dare her
Originally, this trip was going to be Andi, myself, and my sister Donna (D). D and I decided to go ahead and do the trip without Andi.
My favorite park is AK
My favorite ride is Dinosaur
My favorite princess is Belle
D really liked AK and Dinosaur, I taught her well!
She doesnāt really have a favorite princess
D and I at our favorite park!
Now over the years, Ms. Andi has become the guide and CEO of our trips. I was left wondering, will I be able to fill that role again and be a great host and guide for D?
Well, stay tuned to find out!
This trip will cover 3 nights at Universal Studios, Halloween Horror Nights, 2 deluxe resort stays, MNSSHP, 8 nights at WDW, several visits to F&W, an awesome tour, Dis meets, and hot rainy weather!
Trip stats:
Our trip dates were 9/6-9/17/22.
Delta flights from Minneapolis
Portofino Bay resort 9/6-9/9 Garden view room
3 day park to park tickets, 2 nights of HHN with express pass for the first night. EP each day with our park tickets. This is an awesome perk Universal gives to guests staying in a deluxe resort. Umm Disneyā¦.You need to do this!
Animal Kingdom Lodge 9/9-9/17 Savannah view room
I am an AP holder and my sister had a 8 day Park Hopper ticket
Tickets for MNSSHP on 9/11/22
Lyft, boats, and buses for all transportation
Okay letās get this party started!
D and I left my house on 9/5 around 1pm. We drove to my other sisterās house to stay the night. She lives close to the Minneapolis/St. Paul airport. The traffic was bad because it was Labor Day! It took us an extra hour. We were not in a rush so just went with the flow. I mean the stop and go, haha
We arrived around 5pm and we had a nice visit with our sister Helen and her husband Kevin. The weather was absolutely gorgeous and we hung out on their beautiful deck. Kevin made us a great dinner and was serving us drinks! We were able to relax and enjoy the evening.
Soon it was bedtime. We had an early flight and needed to leave their house by 5am. Our flight was scheduled to leave at 7am.
Stay tuned for our travel day, D did not have TSA pre check and curbside wasnāt opened this early! Do we make it in time, is it stressful, does D have to take off her shoes ??
Such riveting questions will be answered very soon!
I will be doing a little game, like @pkondz, well, not nearly as professional as his and you will get pride from me not chocolate haha
I did this game for Andi and she nailed it every time at first, until I made it way harder! She did miss a few but overall it was very hard to stump her!
I took vague photos through out our stay and she had to guess where we were! I will put these pictures in for all of you and you can let me know your answers!
I will also have several trip moments in which, D and I say where is Andi when we need her!
Travel day is the first day āWhere is Andiā came into play!
Thanks for joining in! Day 1 coming up soon!
