Noob...

Hi all! I'm newbie to this site but a frequent Disney patron. My wife, 8 yo son and I are Florida pass holders and have gone to WDW at least 7 times each of the last 7 years. Last week we went on a 4 night cruise on the Dream and then stayed two days at Port Orleans Riverside (Princess Tiana's Royal Guest Room ) and did Food and Wine at Epcot. Going back Nov 17 - 19 to see the Osborne lights.

Yes it was our first and it was incredible! Such an incredible ship with so much to do. Looking at next year and maybe a 7 night on the Fantasy as 4 nights was not long enough!

Isn't that true! I did a 3 night for my first cruise and it took me that long just to learn how to get back to the room
I have a 4 night planned for next year and I can't wait. I adore DCL!

We all love coasters so Rock n' Roller (Hollywood Studios) Coaster and Everest (AK) are probably our favorites...My son and wife rode Thunder Mountain (MK) about 10 times in a row one night during extra Magic hours (If there isn't anyone in the queue of the row for your seat when the train comes in, you don't have to get off.) so he loves that one. The new Star Tours (HS) is great because there are so many different flights - I've been on it about 5 times since it was re-opened and haven't been on the same flight yet. Soaring (Epcot) is a favorite but the wait is always so long. Awaiting the re-opening of Test Track (Dec. 6th - Epcot), that should be fun.

Welcome!

What a lucky life: 7 times a year for 7 years!

How fun to ride Thunder Mountain over and over!

I can't wait for Test Track to reopen, either! It's my son's favorite thing. I'm wondering how that whole build-your-own ride simulator thing is going to pan out!

I've always wanted to see the Osborne Lights! Where's your favorite spot for watching them??

Sorry I'm late to the welcome party, but I was down at WDW all week and just got back late last night. We're glad you found us! I'm so jealous you are able to go so many times a year. I just got back and I'm already feeling blue about the trip being over!
