    Does MK have a Sword In The Stone?

    We told him that it wasn't "unfair" (she got it out twice that year), and his problem was he wasn't the true ruler of England :)

    Does MK have a Sword In The Stone?

    Speaking of jealous, check out the look on our son's face after our daughter got the sword out in 2010:

    We still revisit "Jon's Pukeful Spot" yearly, but fortunately, just for the memory :) After holding back the vomit on Haunted Mansion, we rode It's a Small World, where I all but jumped out of the boat toward an emergency exit. I was able to keep it in as we started to head for the park exit...

    Statements like this from Kristin aren't helping me cope with the fact that I'm not there right now: "I can't even begin to describe Flight of Passage - most beautiful and amazing ride experience of my life!!"

    Kristin is taunting me today with photos of the CSR pool and their meal at Pepper Market ;)

    But wait - there's more! After essentially taking half a year off after a quick start to this Trip Report, I can't post that and say I'm done. So here are some thoughts on the trip, upcoming trips, the trip report, upcoming trip reports, and anything else I feel like commenting on. Enjoy! *...

    And that's where our story ends. Apart from the extra space from the overly cuddly lesbians seated next to me on the plane (they decided to share a seat) and the appearance of Consuela from "Family Guy" on a backseat screen a few rows in front of me, the flight home was uneventful. As you want...

    We thought about saving a park day for today, but it sometimes feels rushed when we do that. We've had enough Disney Springs for one year, so swimming it is! Actual conversation before we finished packing. Kristin: "Dylan, do you want to pack a bathing suit in the carry-on?" Dylan: "No...

    Day 12 - Friday - Flight Home Itinerary: Pack Swim Leave FastPass+ None ADR: Don't rub it in. The notes for this day are really sketchy ("up at 8:00. pack."), but we do have some pictures. Yay, Coronado! Haunted Hidden Mickey (shows up better in photos than in real...

    40 minute standby! That's it? Unbelievable! Well, not THAT unbelievable, since Wishes is about to start. But that's ok. We've seen it this trip. Several times. So into the queue we head, still able to (sort of) watch the fireworks from the line. Riding this one as our last ride of the...

    Or not. HUGE standby line. I didn't take note of the exact time, but it would have to be over an hour for us to skip it at this point. And skip it we did. So where to next? Well, OF COURSE, I suggest the Haunted Mansion, because c'mon, the Haunted Mansion. And we ride it! Sixth time is...

    After Splash, we moved on to another Mountain, which we also had FPs for: Well, not that. But something in that general area. Space Mountain, to be specific. It's starting to get dark. I love Tomorrowland at night. If I had any more pictures of it from that night, I would show you how...

    We DO reach Splash Mountain, eventually. Wait, what? Ah, heck. Let's ride anyway. It's the last day. No biggie. We ride, and we did get wet. But though we got popped by the little-used cannon going around the bend, but managed to miss this one: So we're not THAT wet. We make the...

    Alright, let's close this trip out right! MK until close. Which, sadly, is only until midnight. So no time to waste! We're through the gates at 7:20 and back to Splash Mountain soon after. But first, balloons! And after that, a family photo! Then another one, but closer to the...

    Leave it to me to place a hit-and-run update here after being AWOL for months, only to drop off for weeks. But no more. And I mean it this time! I think. I hope. I do know these two things: 1. I REALLY need to finish this Trip Report. 2. I'm REALLY fare behind on reading others' Trip...

    And hello, Magic Kingdom! But not tonight! I'm wrapping this update up here, leaving the best for last. One last night in Magic Kingdom, when we return! (up next - well, I think I just told you what's next.)

    Fabulous dinner done, it was over to the Magic Kingdom. But first, let's soak in the resort. Hey, how'd he get over here? There he goes. Now for some random Grand Floridian shots: We're on a dock, because we're getting on a boat. Baby D's with us again, too. He's had quite a...

    First, bread. As with most bread, it's all in the butter. The Sleestack power crystals make it extra good! Or is that sea salt? Hard to tell. Now for the really good stuff. I decided on scallops months ago. These are the best scallops I've ever had. Anywhere. We used to get the Surf...
