Just got back from a 9 day vacation at Disneyworld, AMA

[Spence]

Guardians ride is And I don't even like coasters.

@Spence what time did you get in the queue? I didn't know about the window to join prior to going and ended up having to wait until 5pm

Nah, both days I was able to get virtual queue at 7am and our boarding groups were called both times between 9 & 10. Because we were at the villas it’s a 5 minute walk to the back gates of Epcot and 5 minutes to the front gates of Hollywood

i live in Orlando,

did you ride the velocicoaster? , i think it’s one of the best rides ever made

also its been raining a lot recently, did that interfere with anything you were doing ?

 

[Spence]

you working for 2 men and a truck too?

Lol, no

When you 6 fig, 6 certs..what's $2300

I mean I paid for everyone to come have fun. They only had to give me some money for food and their transportation to places other than the parks.

8 days on property with 5 of those in theme parks with 2 toddler little girls, wife, mother in law & sister in law, & my parents it’s fairly easy.

I make a pretty good paycheck though, my receipts are in the Amex thread.

Yeah, Disney ain't no joke.

Haven't stayed on the resort yet but we definitely doing it the next time we go. I was looking at Boardwalk as well when we do (either that or Old Key West or The Star Wars joint).

Those are the kind of vacations that you will always remember, and your kids will always remember them, too. It seems that everybody nowadays is so self obsessed, and going on about what they gonna cop, how much money they can "waste" and not have it dent their pockets, but hard earned money spent on your loved ones to make memories is the best money spent. Good looks.

My oldest daughter hugging chip and Dale will be with me until my death bed bro

It was too kiddy for me. Only visited magic Kingdom and my son had fun but I prefer other parks (6 flags, universal,Kings dominion etc)

Magic Kingdom is way more for the girls than anything (in world, in land they have galaxy’s edge )


The real rides are in Hollywood & Epcot breh.

2300 is nothing if you making 10K a month

Post reminded me of this (and those infamous fights filmed at Disney world)

How was the humidity?
What were your other vacation options that you ruled out? Like a cruise or some exotic trip to a foreign land or something?

 

[Spence]

looking back, would you have preferred doing the Florida trip when they are little older say like 7&8 or you still happy you did it now?

Yes and no. We have the money and opportunity to go so we took it. Like I mentioned previously I don’t care if they remember or not since we will, but I want them tall enough to ride all the rides so we no longer have to rider swap because it ate up time.

 

[Spence]

you paid for everyone? I can respect that. dope for your girls to travel with both sets of grandparents

how much you make per year?

$156k. I took the same group to Mexico & Belize for 2 weeks during Xmas/New Years last year so my daughters have passport stamps. 2019 we did Belize & Guatemala

That inverted loop had me

Cumulatively we lost only about 3 hours in the parks out of the 5 days so it wasn’t terrible.

I was in tears when I had to let that Starcruiser rez go (even made a thread on it when I booked back in October)

We stayed in Old Key west the 3 days before we started going to the parks, it was “ok” it’s just the bus rides to everywhere we’re long since it’s not close to walk to a park like Boardwalk was which is what I recommend. There’s also Yacht & beach club but those 2 resorts were more chill with not much going on compared to the boardwalk.

We did Mexico/Belize last December. It’s harder trying to keep infants entertained on longer flight so we ruled out anything past 4 or 5 hours. From Houston that will only get you to Central America or the top of South America.
Humidity was fine since it’s the exact same climate as here at home in the H
