Plan a trip to Disney World in epic detail

“On our first trip to Disney World, our first park day was Hollywood Studios just a few months after Toy Story Land opened and I just had to go to that park to experience it, I had hyped my daughter up for Slinky Dog Dash and we were excited. Then when we got back to the land, we were completely shell shocked at the overwhelming amount of people there. the pathway was wall to wall people. Slinky Dog Dash already had a 3 hour wait. I guess it opened early for some people and we didn’t realize it. So, plan B, Fastpasses were planned ahead of time and we had a pass for Alien Swirling Saucers, so we tried to enjoy the park as much as possible until our Fastpass time. We started with disappointment, but we overcame it and found ways to have a great time.”

“We're seeing Leon and Linda tomorrow specifically so I can go over my spreadsheets with them and get them set up with My Disney Experience so I can link them to things they want to be involved in. [...] Today is the day we can start making our FP choices. I've got the 3 of us in for Frozen Ever After, Turtle Talk with Crush and Exploring the Seas with Nemo. Going to try and get our 4th FP for Illuminations on the day. [...] I've booked all our FP, a couple of the times are not exactly ideal but I got us into all of our must haves. And I’m planning round them now.”

“So we went with an Airbnb in Windsor Hills: 3 bedrooms, everyone had their own bathroom, full kitchen (which we used), plus a private pool and access to a resort pool. This worked out really well. Door-to-door was about 15–25 minutes to the parks (Magic Kingdom), which I actually think is comparable or even better than Disney transportation from many hotels. at $250 it was a far better value than anything "Disney”
