| We're back! Post Trip report 10/09 Friday – Got off the plane at 10:20am. After a quick lunch and check-in at Pop. Got to love the Magical Express. We entered the MK at 1:00pm. Seeing the castle is such a special moment. Weather: Hot & Sticky YUCH!  First ride: Haunted Mansion First Character(s): Donald and Goofy in Frontier Land Dinner was at the Crystal Palace. This is truly a magical place for me. I loved it just as much as our first time. Back at Pop early, it was a long day. Saturday – Hollywood Studios Weather: Hot & Sticky Dinner was at Mickey’s Backyard BBQ. Not to impressed with it. Sunday – Epcot Weather: Hot & Sticky Dinner was at Teppan Edo. Excellent experience! Monday – Animal Kingdom Weather: You guessed it! Hot & Sticky Breakfast was at Donald’s Safari. I liked this better than Chef Mickey. We had lost our DD, 5 years old, for about 10 minutes. But found her with a Disney police officer. I was nervous, but didn’t panic. I know how seriously WDW takes lost children. Thanks Disney police officer Jim from Chicago IL. Tuesday – Magic Kingdom Weather: Hot & Sticky Dinner was at Ohana. Definite do-over on that rez. Loved it! Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween – Loved it better than the Christmas Party Wednesday Morning – Downtown Disney Shopping Weather: Hot & Sticky Why break the trend. In-Laws starting to get on my nerves. Lunch was at the T-rex Café. I LOVE THAT PLACE!! I felt just like Fred Flintstone. Kids did the Build-a-Dino. Wednesday Afternoon – Epcot Dinner was at Coral Reef. Not impressed at all. Probably won’t go back. Getting more irritated with the In-Laws by the moment. Never got to Test Track. The ride was down during our Fast Pass, and we weren’t going to stay. Thursday Morning – Magic Kingdom Weather: Hot & Sticky A few last rides and pictures. Just about had it with the Father-In-Law. Thursday afternoon – Hollywood Studios Have officially had it with the Father-In-Law. Last Ride: Back Lot Tour Last Character(s): Lightening McQueen & Mater Dinner was at the Brown Derby. Definitely worth the 2 Table services. We ended the trip off with Fantasmic. Not a bad ending. 10/16 Friday... We came home.  Pictures on the way.

| My biggest fear is losing one of my DDs - I know you are supposed to remain calm, but I just don't know if I could. Sorry to hear that the weather and in-laws were not always agreeable but it sounds like you had a great time anyways.

| Gee, it sounds like it was a little hot and sticky while you were there! It sounds like you had a great time - despite your in-laws efforts to ruin your vacation!

| That was a really cute trip report. I'm sorry the in-laws were getting on your nerves. The progression there had me smiling. Sorry... Glad you kept your cool when you lost your daughter. Disney is really good with "lost adults". I don't think they ever call them lost children, which I like. You chose some good dining experiences there. I agree totally with Coral Reef. We've been twice and no more. Here's hoping you get another trip in the works. Maybe without the inlaws?

Thanks OhToodles and Disneydreamer33.
Thanks for the Gobble: Mindy, Lorraine, and Dave! 
. Glad your father-in-law didn't ruin the whole trip, and I guess hot & sticky is better than a hurricane.
