motherwild 1 Posted March 21, 2012 Report Share Posted March 21, 2012 We arrived at FW on Sunday. I had family to visit on Sunday. So we didn't do much beside get set up.Monday I took my grandkids to do crafts in the morning. We went over to Beaches and Cream and had the kitchen sink. I am always happy when I can have ice cream for a meal, I would post pictures but I am lacking in skills to do that. When the valet brought the car he asked my husband if he needed directions, He said no that was the kiss of death to my gps. It will no longer turn on. We managed to find our way to Downtown Disney and back to the campground. Today we went to Islands of adventure. We had gotten tickets from a family member on Sunday. He work for Universal but will be starting a new job next week. So no more free tickets for me. We got to Universal ok but managed to get lost on the way back. I wasn't driving so I really didn;t pay attention. My Husband is so used to being told where to go he didn't pay attention either. We finally found our way back.

We dropped them off at the Magical Express and then went to DTD to meet friends, Our friends took us to Golden Corral and back to DTD. We rode a boat to Port Orleans looked around there for a while and then back on the boat to DTD to get our car and back to the fort.

Gots2pitt.. Jeff 64 Posted March 24, 2012 Report Share Posted March 24, 2012 Stitch has been my son's favorite since he was less than a year old. The first character he saw at Disney was.. that's right Stitch. He was one and he did this :bugeyes: We will always remember this. Hope you guys are having a great time.

motherwild 1 Posted March 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2012 unfortunately things didn't go according to plan. My husband was not feeling well and was up all night. I called this morning and cancelled our reservations. I gave him some medicine and told him if is isn't any better by 9 am I would take him to the er. He went back to bed and woke up feeling better. We hung out for a while and then went to Bass pro shop and a few Character outlets. Bass pro shop now has a type of vacation resort. The hunters and fishers can go hunt or fish and the rest of the family can stay at the resort and do resort type things.. Not a bad deal 5 day 4 night for $99 and then you get some money back on bass pro gift card. I just don't have the time to commit to doing something like that. Maybe after I'm retired We have to start packing up because we are leaving tomorrow. That is the saddest part of vacation. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gots2pitt.. Jeff 64 Posted March 27, 2012 Report Share Posted March 27, 2012 Hope you guys had a fun trip. DIdn't sound like everything went quite as planned (but then for me atleast it never does) but I hope you guys made some great memories. Leaving is definitely the saddest part.

mouseketab.....Carol 1,261 Posted March 27, 2012 Report Share Posted March 27, 2012 Sorry you missed the train tour. Glad you were able to cancel in time and not lose the money!!Of course, when things don't go right, the only solution is to plan another trip, to get it right!!! Practice makes perfect!!

motherwild 1 Posted March 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2012 I would love to plan another trip. I don't see it in the near future. I need to win the lottery. That way I could just stay at the fort and never have to leave. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dblr....Rennie 224 Posted March 27, 2012 Report Share Posted March 27, 2012 To bad you had to miss the Steam Tour, try to plan it for the next trip it is really nice, the 1st part is the best the 2nd part they tell you a alot about Walt's home railroad all very interesting but small children might get bored at that part. Hope you have a safe trip home. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
