LuvDisney's family fun Trip

Alright everyone…I am sorry that I have taken so long to get on with my TR. Got back home and things were a little crazy. But I am ready to start.

Re: LuvDisney's family fun Trip

Our wonderful cast

Me
DH
DS(2)
DD(5)
DM(or Aba as the kids call her)
DMIL(or Yayi as the kids call her)
DS(my sister or Mina as the kids call her)

December 7-10
All Star Sports( I was actually quite happy with it but I did arrive not knowing what to expect)

We got on the road around 4:30pm Friday afternoon. We had an uneventful drive except for a little traffic(but I guess leaving from Miami what else can you expect).

Arrived at the All Star Sports at about 8:00pm and my DH and Dsis went to check us all in. I had requested 2 rooms in the preferred building so that my DM and DMIL wouldn’t have a far walk to the food court and buses. We got our rooms in building 6 right next to each other just as we had asked. I got worried because we were facing the pool and boy was their people in the pool.
We left our stuff in the car and went over to the food court for some dinner. I thought to myself that we were in for a long weekend because the food court and pool area was packed with people but I guess they checked out the next morning because that was the only time that their were a lot of people around. The food was pretty good for being a food court.
We had burgers and hotdogs. My DM had a cheese quesadilla that she said was good.

After dinner, my DH, Dsis and I went to the car to get all of our belongings and headed back to our rooms for showers and off to sleep we all went.

When we got in the room we found on of these

Re: LuvDisney's family fun Trip

Saturday, December 8

We had an 8:00am wake up call by Stitch and Mickey that the kids loved. We got dressed and went down to the lobby to get our tickets and then be on our way.
Here are a few pictures of the lobby.

Re: LuvDisney's family fun Trip

We all jumped in our car and drove on over to the Boardwalk. We wanted to take my DMIL so that she could see how beautiful it was. After walking around a little I remembered that we could take a boat on over to MGM(The Studios..not sure what to call it now). So we did!! It was such a nice ride. The weather was nice. Not too hot, not cold.

Re: LuvDisney's family fun Trip

We arrived at MGM and rented our double stroller. Made our way on over to Hollywood and Vine for our 10:30am reservation. All that I have to say about this breakfast is WOW!!! The food was delicious, characters were great and I guess the fact that their wasn’t a lot of people was the best part. But seriously everything that we tasted was super YUMMY!!!

When the characters started coming out my son was soooo excited. I have to say that this is the first time that he truly enjoys every part of WDW. We went back in April and I don't think he enjoyed it quite as much as he did on this trip.


Here they are waiting for some food and for the characters to come around

Re: LuvDisney's family fun Trip

Every so often during breakfast all the kids are invited to come up and dance with the characters. Lucky for me, my kids had finished eating when they called them up. Here are my kiddos singing and dancing with Goliath.

Re: LuvDisney's family fun Trip

As I said before, breakfast was delicious and so we are on our way. Our next stop was waiting in the hot sun for the High School Musical 2 concert to make its way to the “HAT”. It was a little warm while we were waiting but who was going to tell my daughter that we weren’t going to see it. It was lots of fun and a few parts where they have kids come up and help them making music and playing LIMBO. They really enjoyed it!!

Here is a picture of Sophia with the pom poms and Victor with the basketball

Re: LuvDisney's family fun Trip

One of the main reasons for coming to MGM was to see anything CARS. My son LLLLOOOOOVVVVEEEESSSSS Cars. We knew that they would make appearances just like the other characters do so we had to make it a point to see them. We obviously had to wait in line because as you can imagine my son is not the only fan of CARS. As we were waiting this is what my son decided to do…

This picture made me think to myself if it's my DS or my DH loves CARS more. Look at their faces...
