| Our Disney Vacation 2007 - UPDATED 9/12 Okay, here goes my first trip report…… Port Orleans Riverside August 26-September 1. Amy- age 29 4th trip- one as a child Craig- age 29 4th trip- one as a child Carter- age 5 3rd trip Brittany- age 14 1st trip Our plans for this vacation stared back in December 2006. We booked our air as soon as my husband knew what week he would be taking his vacation in 2007. We decided to book our package for the three of us-Brittany wasn’t going at this point. We watched and waited in agony as rumors of free dining flooded the boards. Could it be that we would get free dining two years in a row??? We got so lucky that the promo started the very first day of our vacation. We had already paid for dining, but with the savings we started to consider taking my cousin along. There were still seats available on all four legs of our flights! Adding her to our trip only cost about $600, and I wanted to share the Magic of Disney with someone. I made the call and she was on board! We arrived in Orlando around 11:30 and made our way to Magical Express. The lines for the All Stars was crazy long, and our bus for Port Orleans Riverside ended up fully loaded too. It was already clear that it was going to be busier than last years trip in September. ![]() ![]() ![]() Up next...checking in at the resort and Magic Kingdom

| Upon entering the lobby at POR I found an enormous line of people waiting to check in. The line was backed up all the way to the store. My excitment was about to be snuffed out Although I was sure I would be waiting there for at least 2 hours, it really took about 45 minutes. I had requested building #14 in AB, but was placed in the Oak Manor building of Magnolia Bend. I had her double check and nothing was available unless we wanted to move to building #15 the next day. We decided we'd rather stay put. It was nice to try out both sections of Riverside but we do prefer Alligator Bayou.We checked our carry on's and we were off to Magic Kingdom! Carter didn't make it too long-the long day had taken it's toll ![]() When we arrived we came across the Family Fun Day Parade, so we stopped for a minute to watch ![]() Then we were off to ride Goofy's Barnstormer, Carter's first ride request ![]() We made our way over to Fantasyland and rode Pooh and Snow White, and then walked to Tomorrowland for Buzz. I really wanted to do PhilharMagic this trip so Britt and I went there while Carter and Craig did the teacups ![]() ![]() It was getting close to dinner time so we headed to Liberty Tree. Since we had some time to kill we went ahead and did the Hall of Presidents. It was so boring that Carter fell asleep like 3 minutes in ![]() ![]() |
