Trip Details
Who: My immediate family (me & my parents)
When: November 10-17, 2018
Where: Beach Club Villas
Why: No reason! Kind of a family reunion We also celebrated my dad's birthday on this trip!
Transportation: JetBlue flights & Disney transportation (+ Uber & Lyft/Minnie Van)
Tickets: APs for me & my dad, and a 7-Day Park Hopper for my mom. My dad had three business trips to Orlando this year. He likes to ride some things & eat dinner in Epcot when he's down there, so the AP made sense for him. I purchased my AP on a trip back in January.
Extras: Tables in Wonderland, D23 Gold & a few other things!
Cast
Please note that the man in the following photo is NOT my father I insist that any resemblance to me is simply a coincidence.
I'm Mimi, 23 years old, and I live in Japan with my fiance & our dog I'm an NYU alum, currently a graduate student at the University of Tokyo and I work as a curatorial fellow. I'm also a passholder for the Tokyo parks & spend many happy days there. I am a huge fan of the controversial-in-the-US Duffy & was very sad to see he's basically been erased from WDW. I'm an only child and very close to my parents so I was really looking forward to this trip.
Favorite Movie: ALL OF THEM! (Especially any princess movie
)
Favorite Character: Cinderella, Marie, Chip & Dale
Favorite Resort: Polynesian, Grand Floridian, Beach Club
Favorite Park: Magic Kingdom
Favorite Ride: Haunted Mansion & Tower of Terror
In the photo with me & "Not the Papa" is my mom, (redacted) years old. She is a librarian, which is the perfect career for her as she loves books and her favorite hobby is reading. I couldn't wait to take her to meet Gaston Her second favorite hobby is shopping & that's something we both could not wait to do! She is also a big fan of Flynn Rider (AS AM I) so we made sure to hit the Bon Voyage breakfast.
Favorite Movie: Dumbo, Lady and the Tramp, The Lion King
Favorite Character: Lady, Flynn Rider, Ursula
Favorite Resort: Polynesian & Grand Floridian
Favorite Park: Epcot
Favorite Ride: Haunted Mansion & Soarin'
This is my dad, 55 years old. I clearly chose to post the most flattering photo of him from this trip. Thankfully, he has a good sense of humor He is a real estate attorney & I keep asking him to look into how long I'd have to squat in the Cinderella Castle suite before Disney would be unable to evict me. So far, no luck. He is a big nerd (I inherited this trait) & loves Star Wars, Star Trek, Marvel, etc.
Favorite Movie: The Lion King
Favorite Character: Goofy
Favorite Resort: Yacht Club & Contemporary
Favorite Park: Magic Kingdom
Favorite Ride: Space Mountain, Expedition Everest, Star Tours
My family has been going to Disney parks together since I was a baby - and before that, too. My parents went to WDW on their honeymoon & stayed at the Contemporary. I had no chance to avoid the lure of the mouse... (Happy 90th, Mickey! Looking good.) We have had a lot of fun & made a lot of great memories over the years. I hope that I will also have "Disney kids" one day
