So, this past weekend was the first time I ever went to Disney during Christmas time! I was so excited to see the decorations, lights, and characters. Here’s a recap of the magical weekend 
Saturday:
We woke up bright and early Saturday morning, packed and loaded up the car to get to the Disney resort before the park opened. We made a quick pit stop for gas and coffee and set on the road!
We arrived at Disney’s Caribbean Brach Resort around 9:15 and immediately parked, took a bathroom break, and headed for the bus stop which was really close to where we parked. We hopped the bus for Hollywood Studios and didn’t get back on the bus until 2:30 to head back to the resort to check-in and take a break before dinner at Downtown Disney and Fireworks and the parade at Magic Kingdom!
TOY STORY RIDE!! (My score is on the left, and Josh’s is on the right! And let me tell you – this ain’t easy! When you get off of Toy Story, your arm aches for the next 30 minutes. If you think I’m exaggerating, ride it – then get back to me!)
We did have a few snafoo’s though 
When we first received our check-in information and key, we headed to the room. When we parked Josh suggested we leave everything in the car and check the room out first. Me, being impatient, said no – let’s take everything now. So we filled all of our hands full of stuff, and headed to the room. I unlocked the door and the first thing I noticed were the comforters on the floor. It was then that I realized that the room hadn’t even been cleaned from the last guests that occupied the room. So, annoyed and frustrated, we turned around, put everything back in the car, and headed to the front desk. Fortunately they were really quick about getting us new keys, and a new room (which we ended up loving more than the initial room).
After a quick break and semi-nap, we hit the bus stop for DD for dinner! After dinner, we headed back to the room to drop off the ornaments we purchased and take a potty break before hitting MK.
Magic Kingdom was…MAGICAL AND ENCHANTING!
The castle was gorgeous and breath-taking! The parade was festive and fun! And the lights…oh, the lights! WE LOVED EVERYTHING!
Other than dealing with the shut-down of the the new Little Mermaid Ride, MK was a fun and festive night. Unfortunately, we had to leave and hit the sack around midnight!
Sunday:
The next morning, I woke up early, got a nice jog in around the peaceful resort. Afterwards, we got ready to go to the restaurant at the resort so that Josh could get his breakfast, which he said was delicious!
After breakfast, we headed to Animal Kingdom to end our quick weekend trip to Disney! We rode Everest twice, went through the plains of Africa on the Safari right, and rode the Dinosaur ride!
(I wasn’t really scared of the animatronic dinosaur and the picture on the right is the Safari we went on)
We ended the trip with a delicious lunch at Rainforest Café and headed home!
It was a fantastic trip, one we’ll always remember!
Now – time to plan the next one!
