Loved the updates! I am so glad you guys had such a good fun filled day at MK! Your kids seem so manageble and its like all of you guys get along so well together with likes and dislikes.
I was thinking about your comment on the jungle cruise at night and i think that's a must do for myself having only ridden it during the day!
That was quite a scare you had with your son on BTMRR but i'm so glad he did as instructed!
I was laughing at your comment about TOT...it reminded me of a my friend last year when we rode TOT it was her first time and she's 30 years old and she thought the ride only dropped she had no idea of the multiple drops!! If you couldve seen the look on her face! But she quickly decided she wanted to ride it again like you!
I cant wait to see your pic of TOT!

Finally all caught up. I'm glad the boys gave Mickey's Philharmagic a try after not liking ITTBAB, it is wonderful. The first time my older guys rode the TTA they thought we had tricked them onto Space Mountain too

Can't wait to read more.

I just got caught up, great TR. I'm glad you got to ride ToT. I love this ride and DH tolerates it for me. He loves RnRC and I love it now but originally rode it just for him.

My daughter gets a stomache when she's nervous about a first time ride also. I'm so proud of them for going on TOT. That's a big time ride!

Can't wait for more.

Just caught up and such great updates...

We found the check-in at CRT crazy as well. We had gone straight from the BBB and was told to come back in ten minutes which was fine but then when I went back the CM was just so confused...

We did enjoy the lunch though but you are right that it is not as organized as it should be.

Glad you got to ride TOT (the kids were so brave for you). I would much rather ride that then SM with my kids becuase I do not like the fact that they ride alone. At least on the other rides you can hold them...

Can't wait to hear more.

I just read straight through your TR!!!
So much fun!
Your family seems to be having a blast (and I don't blame the boys for chickening out of some of the rides... I hafta say I was suuuper scared on SM myself!) lol!
Glad you enjoyed CRT and I totally understand how you feel about check-in. We headed over around a half hour early to see if we could get into our ressie like 10-15 min early and I spent most of the time waiting anyhow! There is nothing like eating in the castle, though!
Your family pics came out awesome on the photopass cd! So adorable!

This is our Tower of Terror Photo! We are the group of four on the front row. You can clearly see how terrified Dillon and Madilyn were!

B, Great picture! I can see how terrified they are and I sort of know what they are going through. We took my youngest nephew on this ride in 1995 and traumatized the poor boy. It is only within the past few years he has come around to liking thrill rides!

At the time, ToT had a single LAP BAR for everyone on the row, and John sat between Bob and me. When we dropped, he came up off the seat and he did NOT like that at all. When we exited, my sister looked at me and we said, "AGAIN!" Whereupon John scooted to the nearest bench. His body language said that we would have to get a jackhammer to get him off the bench and back into the Hollywood Tower Hotel.

The best part was that for every attraction we went into thereafter, John would always ask, "Is it a calm ride?"

I ToT!

Glad to see everyone is mostly having a good time--'terror in every drop' nothwithstanding.

Looking forward to more!
