    Trip Report - March 2024

    Love seeing all your food reports. I am not an adventurous eater at all and I don't like fatty meat either. On our first date my husband ordered some kind of seafood platter. I couldn't look at him eating the frog legs. He loves seafood. Where are you looking on the west coast? We have stayed...

    Trip Report - March 2024

    I'm enjoying your trip report. We were there at almost the same time, 3-2 to 3-15. We rented a house by Disney and had kids and grandkids come at different times. The weather was almost perfect and we hated to come home to cold Minnesota.

    Oh, has it Been Raining? No, this is Just Sweat. Sept/Oct 2022 Trip Report! (Updated 9/16!!)

    Usually just a lurker, but I love your trip reports with your mom. I'm glad your cat is doing better. I just wanted to say go with USAA. We had a similar situation with Farmers telling us we needed a new roof on our lake cabin. We didn't like them snooping around our cabin. But we did get the...

    I’m not going to trust that psychopath! April 15-24th, trip report. I’m back and TR link 9/17*

    I'm loving your trip report. I had no problem getting on Tron and I am 72 and overweight. The second picture is of me and my grandson. We sat up a little more. The first picture is my daughter and granddaughter. They leaned down more. You can see the restraints around her legs. They weren't a...

    Looks like you had a great solo trip. Thanks for sharing it. What a horrible time to come back to Minnesota. So much snow and getting colder every day.

    Very Scary, Not so Scary, and Everything In Between! 🎃 Updated 12/9. Last day**

    Your dinner looked much better than ours. I think we ate there about 4 or 5 years ago. They had prime rib then and it was so rare only my husband ate any. We tried the mac and cheese and it was amost flavorless, but I imagine kids would like it. The salad and rolls were the best part. We didn't...

    Very Scary, Not so Scary, and Everything In Between! 🎃 Updated 12/9. Last day**

    I've been reading and enjoying your trip report this week. I had gall bladder surgery Wed. so I've been taking it easy and reading a lot of trip reports. We always rent a house, but we are staying at AKL for one day this trip. We decided to extend our trip by one day because of better airline...

    I hope we love it! I am sure we will! Uh no - we don't! Mickeystoontown's 16 day trip! Updated 9/5!

    So scary for Mama and glad she's ok. I think you should get her an alert button. We got my Dad one when he was 88. He was falling and couldn't get himself back up. I think it was only about $20 a month. Worth it for peace of mind. It's nice because they call you first and you can go check on her...

    Looks like you had a wonderful last day with your friend! I would take cool over hot any day, as long as it wasn't raining. I am always surprised to see so many people in hoodies when it feels great to me. We're from Minnesota. I don't have any plans for another trip right now. We had thought...

    I'm glad to hear Tony is improving. If it weren't for my grandkids, HS would be a half day park for us. When we were there we had 2 days planned. Everything kept breaking down and everyone was going to Rock 'n Roller on our second day. We were there about 2 hours and left. It was just nuts...

    I hope we love it! I am sure we will! Uh no - we don't! Mickeystoontown's 16 day trip! Updated 9/5!

    I'm glad to have found another Mickeystoontown trip report. I'm mostly a lurker but I have read many of your reports. We went last Christmas and decided we won't be going so often, if at all. Everything is so expensive it seems and I didn't like paying extra for Genie+. Plus we are in our 70's...

    Oh Ruthie what a hard few months you've had. I looked at your trip report last week and hoped everything was ok. I thought maybe you just decided not to finish it. I am glad you are. I have had covid twice. Once when we were in Florida before Christmas and again a month ago. Except for being...

    April 2022 - Everything Is Worse

    I felt the same way until this last trip. I was always hoping and planning for the next one. Now I don't have that feeling anymore. I am looking for where else we can go. Luckily our grandkids are getting older and I don't think they will mind.

    April 2022 - Everything Is Worse

    We were there in Dec-Jan for a month. We knew it would be busy, but mostly didn't like paying extra for rides. We had the grandkids with us for part of the trip or we probably wouldn't have paid for any. We luckily were there right when they started the trams at MK. I probably would have had to...

    Three weeks at WDW and no park entries

    I understand not going to parks now with the crowds and Genie+. But I sure wouldn't go there just to stay in their hotels and pay their exorbitant hotel prices. We have done that many years and have decided to visit other parts of the country now. I am not sure we will ever go back.

    Thanks, I Hate It - Disney by non-Disney Fans (DUN)

    Very entertaining report. Our first trip to Disney World was mostly paid for by my mother after she got a small inheritance. Totally different time then without much planning. It was still hard coordinating 20 people, and we figured out early it was best for each family to do their own thing...
