  1. December 23rd Continued So after Dinner we decided to go to the Grand Floridian to get Gingerbread. Since we drove, we decided to stop at the Polynesian and take the Monorail over since my DD wanted to take the Monorail all trip. We mainly went into the Polynesian to make sure that DD could ride the Monorail. We were very surprised to see Lilo and Stitch and NO line. The Grand Floridian is so beautiful. At Christmas time and the Christmas Tree it was awesome. DD in front of the Gingerbread House We went to buy some Gingerbread, which was very good. We also walked into Basin so my
  2. December 23rd Continued… Since Art of Animation opened, I had wanted to go and see it. I definitely wanted to see the Cars section since I had seen so many awesome pictures of it. I also wanted to try to eat the Food Court. The Food Court was busy, however I found the smoothie section and got a smoothie right away. Then it was time to decide on what to get for Dinner. I ended going with a burger and got my food quickly. My DW decided on the Make Your Own Pasta and that line seemed to take forever. DD got pizza. The food was good and I will there again when I go in August and stay there f
  3. Monday December 23rd Continued If you ever wondered what type of beef they use at the fort, here is the answer. It looks like we had Lunch at Tusker House. Let’s just say they were VERY Busy. Do not know if we would go back again. Picture with Donald Daisy Mickey – who skipped our table and we had to chase down Goofy The food was good, but the service was awful. After Lunch we had Lion King FP+, but we had some time so DD got pictures with Pocahantas One of the trees in Camp Minnie Mickey One of the Divers Then it looks like we headed out of Animal Kingdom and got a picture wi
  4. Finally Update Time. I know it has been a while, but work got in the way. I am heading to the Fort on Thursday night, so I wanted to try to finish up the report before I leave. Monday December 23rd We had nothing planned in the morning so we were going to take my DD on a pony ride. When we work up we saw some Turkeys behind our site. We decided to tour the barn and took pictures of the different displays. A description of the horses they use. Had to get a picture of Brady Then it was time for the Pony Ride Since we were the first ones there, she got to ride around twic
  5. Sheriff Callie is starting to be a big show for my DD. She likes Sofia, but I just do not get the show. If she is married into the family, why does she need an amulet to still be a princess. That show just bothers me.
  6. Sunday Continued We are now back at the campsite. Tried to take some pictures of my campsite since I did not the night before. And the cart back at the campsite all decorated Our Christmas Tree at night Had to turn on the flash because I was not steady enough to take it without the flash. Without the Flash Looks like we got back to the fort fairly early, so we decided to loop around. We ended up around the Settlement area. Fort Tree This is a picture of Brady, the horse that took us around on the Holiday Sled Ride. Family pictures on Sled Ride Picture with Brady i
  7. Update Time! Sunday 12/22/2013 Today is a Hollywood Studios day. We had plans for Lunch at Brown Derby, FP+ for ToT, Toy Story Mania and I had one for Rock and Roller Coaster, while DW and DD went to Disney Junior. Since we already has Lunch reservations and FP+, we decided to take it easy in the morning. What happens when you are looping at night on the GC and your DD sees every other Golf Cart decorated and yours not? Answer, your DW and DD head to the Dollar Store to get some decorations for the GC. When they came back, that is what we did until it was time to head out to Hollywood S
  8. Saturday December 21st - Continued Looks like I missed some stuff that we did in the Magic Kingdom. This is why you do not do a trip report over months later than when you went or you better have taken a lot more pictures or wrote things down like the Troll does. Well, I did neither of those. We ended up riding the tea cups, DD loves them, then we rode IASW. While waiting for one of our FP+ with the princesses, we ate Lunch at Friar Nook, next to Pooh. We got the Chicken Nuggets, Teriyaki Chicken Nuggets and the Hot Dog. The Teriyaki Chicken Nuggets were very good. Now back to the fort.
  9. Thanks. I did not take too many interesting photos. Thanks Todd. You will see more pictures of Cinderella with Cinderella. Memory Maker was very good. We were able to get all the special photos on it, plus it was available right away, we did not have to wait to receive the CD.
  10. Continuing Saturday 21st We are still at the Magic Kingdom and looks like we are Finally getting to some rides. For the Saturday before Christmas we were surprised that it was not as busy as we had thought. This was a very good thing. We used our FP+ on Belle and the Princesses. The first ride that DD wanted to do was the Carousel. Well, it looks like that was the only ride we decided to do. It was getting close to official check-in time so we started to head back to the fort. As we were sitting waiting for the boat we got the text letting us know that we were in Site 508, the one that
  11. Thanks, she loves taking them, you will see a lot more later on. Thanks.
  12. GaDawg - Z and my DD need to meet. My DD is always dressed in some sort of princess costume. I think she has ALL of them, including a cheap version of Anna and Elsa. She is now very big into Elsa, but her Birthday Party was themed for Rapunzel. This is the cake that my DW made for her.
  13. Saturday 2/21 continued We left off going to Walmart. We bought some food and going by the clothes section my DD found a Nightgown. It happened to be on sale and being the sucker I am bought it. She ended up wearing that thing a lot. We finally made it back to the fort. Since we did not have out Kenny cart yet, still very early, we headed off to bus stop and took the bus to the Settlement. We hopped on the boat to the Magic Kingdom and we checked out when Santa was going to be open. We waited for Disney World to get the picture with Santa. We had to wait a little bit till it opened, but
  14. Well, I guess it is time to finally do start the trip report. It just got too busy to keep doing the Live Trip report. 12/20/2013 It was Myself, my DW and my DD4. We had planning on this trip for over a year. My DD is not new to Disney World, she is kind of a veteran. This would be her 10th trip to Disney World. We are also DVC Members, so we stay at the DVC resorts a lot. We also traveled with our 3 Dogs. 2 Border Collies and 1 Miniature Australian Shepard. This would be 2nd trip to the Fort. The first trip was about 2 ½ years ago when we camped in our Travel Trailer. We have since u
  15. It is not in the system yet. I am leaving this one to my DW to deal with when I am at my conference.
  16. I definitely look at the prices of the Buffets before I go. My trip in August we were schedule to go to Chef Mickey's for Breakfast and I went the night before to check out the price. When we went in the morning it actually ended up being cheaper. I was very happy to see that. I think I saved close to $50 that morning for 4 adults and 3 children. The Wheat Beer in Germany was good. I actually finished a Liter of it and I am not a huge drinker. Normally 1 or 2 beers gets me buzzed. and I was definitely buzzed after the liter of beer. There are a few items on the Dinner menu that are NO
  17. Been out of the loop so I did not TCD's discussion yesterday. I am still hoping, even as a DVC member that this never gets built.
  18. DVCNews just posted this. Do not know if this means that the DVC is coming back into the picture or just found again. http://dvcnews.com/index.php/resorts/other--proposed-resorts/2480-ft-wilderness-dvc-plans-leaked jon
  19. We came back to the camper and ate. My DD wanted to do a sleigh ride and the sucker that I am gave in. We had Stephanie and Brady, the black Percheron and the tallest of the horses. He is also one of the Headless Horsemen horses. Today is mainly going to be Animal Kingdom, but that us later. We have had some long days and are letting DD sleep in.
  20. Thanks for all the comments. Until I get on a laptop, it is difficult to respond to all of them. Yesterday was fun. We started off by going to Trails End and then the DW and DD went and decorations for the Golf Cart. Yesterday was DHS. We ate lunch at The Hollywood Brown Derby. DW and I got the Cobb Salads. I actually have a picture of that. Afterwards they did Disney Junior and I just hung out. We had to wait on oyr FP for Toy Story, so we went amd saw Santa Goofy? Tow Mayer and Lightning McQueen. After all of that we rode Toy Story Mania. Then we went into One Mans Dream amd actu
  21. Laura, it iis definitely swimming weather. Hoping to head to the pool shortly after the DW and DD get back from going to the store. They went to go get atuff5 to decorate the Golf Cart with. DD was distraught that everyone else had their GC's decorated.
  22. The GAG was very good. Enough chicken for leftovers, but DD loved the Mac and Cheese and tore through all of that. Todays plan are trails end for breakfast, pool and fort time. Then over to Hollywood Studios in the later part of the afternoon. On a simple side note. FP+ so far gets a thumbs up from me. Was able to change things around yesterday to get us out of the MK earlier. Magic Bands worked at the front gate, But not at the Comfort Station. If I can get the modem to get me some Internet access, I will try to get some pictures uploaded, otherwise tjey will have to wait till I g
