Welcome to my first ever trip report! We've been back to reality for a solid six months now, and I'm getting the itch to book another trip (but I'll save that for another post). Some of the details are starting to get fuzzy, so I figured I'd better get this show on the road! Never fear, I took copious notes and between myself and the photopass photographers, I have about 900 photos! So before I go any further, you may be wondering who went on this trip? And what are all the details? (Well, if you read my pre-trip report, I guess you'd already know? And if you didn't, it's here.)
But now, let me introduce you to my family!
I'm Sara! That's me in the Minnie ears. Taylor is dressed like Rapunzel, she was 5 for this trip. And my DH, Kenny.
We rented DVC points from David's and stayed at Animal Kingdom Lodge - Jambo House for 8 nights! November 10-18, 2018. We had a Standard Studio room, but I sent in a room request (first time!) and got exactly what I asked for - near the lobby, partial Savannah view! That was super exciting. We were on the 5th floor of the Kudu trail, room 5220.
Here's our view:
Can't complain about that right?! We didn't see much during the day (not that we were in our room during the day,) but at night there were several animals that would sleep right there! Which is awesome, because we could put Taylor to bed and we would sit on our balcony and relax before going to sleep (aka upload the day's photos to Facebook.)
This was our second trip to WDW as a family. Our first trip was in 2015 when DD was 2 years old. We had a magical time then and I magically talked DH into going back in 2018. I'm not sure how I did it. He enjoys Disney but isn't obsessed with it like I am. I guess there will be a few mother-daughter trips in our future. Taylor is into Disney as much as I am!
Trip Stats:
70.63 miles walked
60 characters met
51 rides
9 shows
3 fireworks shows
1 dessert party
1 princess makeover
1 Christmas party
1 Early Morning Magic
So grab a glass of wine (I did,) sit back, and prepare to be exhausted!
Up next: Travel Day!
