Well all I can say about the trip is that it was EXTREMELY HOT!!!!:fan::faint: We are used to the heat down here, but it was way too hot the whole time. Beautiful days with lots of sun (that’s the problem no clouds). Ok it rained for maybe a good hour one day, but we didn’t have plans so it didn’t bother us. We stayed in the resort until evening and then ventured out to the parks. We had plans for all 4 parks, but only made it to MK since they had two nights of extra hours. We decided to do things late at night this way we got to ride everything we wanted. I had FP's for mine train which was perfect because the line for that ride was out of control with the wait time all night. It was good I liked it. I have to say I am glad I got the AP’s this way we always have the option of leaving when it’s too crowded or hot. I don’t feel like I wasted any money. We did things we haven’t done before so that’s always nice. The only down side was all the construction  it was everywhere and I know it’s for the good of the parks and downtown area, but the traffic was crazy just passing in front of DTD. I can’t wait till they finish that and also in the MK. Other than that another great time and look forward to going back soon.

Oh yeah we FINALLY made it to BOG for lunch. It was really nice and the food was great too…


Been there, done that and going back!!! See ya real soon !!!

It must have been really hot if Floridians couldn't take the heat. How hot was it! Glad you enjoyed BOG for lunch.

It was so hot!!! I felt like I was melting…I don't usually mind the heat, but this was way too much it just hits you as soon as you open the door and wouldn't cool off. It was that sticky hot before it rains kind of heat with NO BREEZE...:ack: We did find cool AC in the Christmas store (best spot was right by the door where the Halloween stuff was) there was a vent that was kicking out ice cold AC... Grin I also felt so bad for the little kids that had to be in the strollers facing the sun. They looked so hot and miserable.. It’s just not fun that way... I hope they had plenty of sunscreen on them. Some of them where so fair skin. I’m glad when my kids where smaller they had strollers that you could switch the handle so the kids would face you and not the hot sun.. Didn’t see any of those oh and the poor babies that moms would cover the seat with a towel. I know they would get the shade from the sun, but man they had to be boiling under there..


Been there, done that and going back!!! See ya real soon !!!
