I know that is a huge change for you. Before you had mentioned going to the parks every day for a little bit. Positives and negatives you observed for this trip in light of your typical Disney travel? Yvonne, this is a difficult question to answer quickly. I think I'm gonna do a mini trip report because I have a lot of pros and cons resulting from this trip that I'd like to share.

Unfortunately our annual passes expired at the end of our 2019 trip, and since we thought we wouldn't be back for nearly a year we didn't renew. So we were stuck paying nearly half what the AP would have cost for just a 7-day ticket.

I have become the daytime caretaker of DD2's 3 month old while she is at work and she doesn't have oodles of vacation time so Rene and I can take off. We did suggest we could take granddaughter with us but I can't repeat the response here. So until some future point our camping trips will be limited to places we can get to within and hour or two on a Friday evening. But what a wonderful time you will have not camping! Such a special time in your lives!

Gretchen, we had an accumulation of freezing rain at home on Wednesday morning, but thankfully by the time we made it home in the afternoon the temperature had risen enough that everything had melted enough for us to safely make it home. We're still getting Dolly unpacked and situated for the winter. (Thankfully we had her winterized right before we left the Fort). Unhappily settling back into home. Those of you who know me well understand that Mother Nature and I aren't happy with each other right now. Anyway, I'm getting my photos off my laptop and onto my desktop ... starting to go through and edit them. Didn't take nearly as many this trip. As soon as I can get a handle on them i plan to start a mini trip report. This was a trip like no other, both good and bad. Both disappointments and pleasant surprises along the way. We would absolutely go back and do it all over again. But at the same time this trip has forever changed our perception of future trips. Will explain more later. keith_h, momof3kids-Yvonne, fladogfan aka Gretchen and 1 other 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
