Joining in! I love the idea of a mother-daughter trip!
Can’t wait to read more!
Thanks for reading!
Allie is so easy to travel with so I hope to keep doing these kinds of trips!

Hi, Kelly!
You both look so happy to be on Everest. It's such a fantastic ride.
I'm here!! Fingers crossed for your upcoming trips! We have 3 scheduled for late Aug, Sept and Nov. I can't reschedule since those points have to be used up too. It's crazy!
Our Aulani stay for May was cancelled this year. I hope to be able to go next year instead!
Your trip is off to a great start! And FoP at only 60 minutes?! Can't pass that up!
Kelly!!! I had no idea about this trip but you are sure off to a great start.
We stayed at ASMo for a night in March and really liked it.
Fingers crossed your other trips work out.
We are keeping our July trip with very low expectations...
SO fun!!!! I love traveling with my Mom, so these are some of my favorite kinds of TRs to read!
I enjoyed the couple throwback pics you started with! I hope you decide to throw more of those in along the way
So glad you started this report! Looking forward to following along and getting my Disney fix!
I am envious of your upcoming planned trips! I had been hoping to take a long weekend to Flower and Garden this past April as my last "no kids" trip before our first baby arrives in September but stinking COVID. (Also ended up with a cancelled Rome trip.) So now I'm trying to decide whether I try Disney with a 9mo old next May/June, a 1yo next October, or just hold off indefinitely!
Joining in! So looking forward to reading all about your adventures!
I am planning on being there for sure! We need an EPIC 2.0!
Bill and I are hoping for a Christmas '21 trip too. After no Disney in 2020, I will be making up for it next year!
We are at the Riviera July 24 and the Contemporary July 25-28.When do you leave? I'll be rooting for you guys!
Kelly, it was horrible!!!! I spent 15 hours on hold in 2 days. I even made the News 6 Orlando news. Disney should be ashamed of themselves. This was their worst idea yet...I won't go into the ghastly details of my morning…mostly because I don't want to re-live it, but also because I think you all have your own ghastly details of trying to make park reservations that day.
See above...The DVC CM I spoke with on the phone (after 2 hours on hold)
This may be the most "Kelly" breakfast ever
Yum, right??
Heck 5 months is close enough in my book!!!Some of you might have noticed I was wearing my birthday button
My actual birthday wasn't for another five
days, but we weren't going to be there for it so I figured, close enough!
YesI YesI YesI You will all be together come April and have the whole crew together for some Disney magic!!!!But she and my niece will be joining us next April at BLT, and things will hopefully be much better by then. I have to stay optimistic here
Awesome!!! Now all you need to do is push your trip another 2 weeks so you overlap with us and then your trip will be absolutely perfect ❤Additionally, Mike has decided to come with us and already has an unactivated AP that he was supposed to use for our March and then July trips.
Ugh mess is an understatement. We had it easy compared to most, but I cannot believe it could be October before you have the debacle figured out.What a mess.
We never did the MGM drawing class so I have no comparison but we weren't very impressed with this. The whole location is a total after thought and when we did it they picked like the most random and complicated character they could (Iago)and the drawing class was nowhere near as good
as the one they used to have over at DHS.
U sure you're going to a Halloween party???We both had plans for MNSSHP the next night so we said we'd see them there.
My PR day was awful, I finally made mine by Thursday, oh well
NRJ is a calm peaceful little ride, could use that right about now!

Definitely! And so needed after everything we have been going through!That will be the most epic, EPIC trip ever!
Oh my gosh same! I did five years without a trip at one point and then I fell down the Disney rabbit hole. I went three times in 2019 and I'm Canadian!It's crazy that I used to be happy with going once every two years!
I would think early to mid December. I love to be home for Christmas day. What about you?Would you be planning early December or to actually be there on Christmas?
Perfect!I did get my Baobab Tree, however...
I absolutely loved the decor at AK!Allie and I wandered around admiring the AK Christmas decorations before we left...
So pretty! Love the pics of you and Allie too.We watched a gorgeous sunset as we waited for our bus...
Soooo many stories being told!I think you all have your own ghastly details of trying to make park reservations that day.
Suffice to say, I was successful in making the park reservations for exactly what we wanted in October:
Not bad for FOP.our wait for FOP was almost exactly an hour...
She's pretty impressive.I kind of like her,
I like the "lizards" silhouettes on the leaves. They even make thumping noises as the skitter about.but I find the rest of the ride lacks something.
Sorry to hear that.It was kind of buggy over there
and the drawing class was nowhere near as good
as the one they used to have over at DHS.
I had been texting with Ariane who was in AK with her husband Steve
and we literally ran right by them in our haste to get off the train and run to KS.
Yay!!!!I did get my Baobab Tree, however...
Not bad!!And probably the best view of the lions that I've ever had.
How can we forget? Have you seen the Corona virus edition?Anyone remember the "Where's Waldo?" books?
I see her!Well, Where's Allie?
Well, of course. It is Disney, after all.We did stop for some PP, but they came out kind of goofy...
Hope you had luck getting tickets today! I was able to use our tickets from our cancelled trip and made park reservations for our August '21 trip. No issues at all and took about 15 minutes.Now I'm waiting for WDW to start selling tickets for 2021. I'm actually really miffed that they've started selling resort packages with tickets for 2021 but DVC members with stays already booked are not allowed to purchase tickets yet. The DVC CM I spoke with on the phone (after 2 hours on hold) reassured me that I will be able to purchase tickets on Sunday June 28th. We shall see. I won't hold my breath, but if they do then I will buy all of our tickets and make our April PRs on Sunday. I'm really trying not to panic yet since April is still nine months from now.
