Hi everybody!
Welcome back to anyone hopping over from my PTR (http://disboards.com/threads/there-...update-3-31-home.3342236/page-6#post-53360004)
and Welcome to any new readers!
We just returned Sunday from WDW. As with all trips, it had its good and bad moments, but on balance, it was a great trip!
So, with that, let's get on to the cast!
Hi, I'm Karen. I am a part time physics professor, and full time mom and Girl Scout leader (I am pretty sure I spend more time on GS stuff than I do on my job!). This was my 16th trip to WDW!
Favorite attractions: Soarin', FotLK, Peter Pan, and TSMM
Favorite characters: Rapunzel, Belle, Tiana, Eeyore
DH: Gabe - He grew up in South Florida and has been to WDW more times than he can count.
Favorite attractions: Animation Academy, Soarin', and BTMRR
Favorite characters: Sorcerer Mickey and Buzz Lightyear
DH is a thrill rider. He will try anything, except for the tea cups and Mission Space: orange. Oh, and the Disney buses they give him motion sickness EVERY time (although he did consent to use them to get to DTD this trip).
DD1 J age 11 This was her 9th trip to WDW.
Favorite attractions: Flights of Wonder, BTMRR, Kali River Rapids, and Aladdin! at DCA
Favorite characters: Stitch, Mickey Mouse, Aurora, Pluto, Goofy, Tigger, and many more!
J likes the mild roller coasters like BTMRR. At home, she plays flute in the school band and is on the chess and basketball teams. She is in 6th grade, she is still much more a kid than a tween and I am really happy about that!
DD2 C age 9 This was her 8th trip to WDW
Favorite attractions: Carousel of Progress, Fantasmic!, Imagination, Animation Academy, and Soarin'
Favorite characters: Rapunzel, Mickey Mouse, and Snow White
C dislikes thrill rides like her mama. At home, she is art club, plays chess, and takes dance lessons (ballet, tap, and jazz). She is in 3rd grade and is happy at WDW in ways that she never is anywhere else.
DS1 T age 6 This will be his 5th trip to WDW
Favorite attractions: BTMRR, Buzz Lightyear, and Star Tours
Favorite characters: Sorcerer Mickey
Like his sister, he likes the mild roller coasters. At home, he plays on the chess team and does gymnastics. He is in 1st grade and like most 6 year old boys seems to be a constant motion machine.
DS2 D age 2 This will be his 2nd trip to WDW.
Favorite attractions: Winnie the Pooh, it's a small world, and the carousel
Favorite characters: Mickey Mouse and Winnie the Pooh
He is a sweet little fellow. Due to some medical issues, he is in physical and speech therapy.
MIL and FIL were also with us on this trip. They were generally pretty willing to ride anything or to skip anything if any of the kids didn't want to ride. They were also great about taking D back to the resort for nap time if the big kids wanted to keep going.
