This report is a bit delayed, in fact I wasn't going to do it, but now I've got 75 days until my next trip and I find myself with that DL itch. I've planned all I can for November so I spent some time looking back at my last trip and thought, maybe I should organize that into a trip report. My very first one!
Just to introduce myself, I'm Erin. I live in Oregon with my husband S, nearly five year old daughter R, and our two dogs. I grew up in the Bay Area before moving to Oregon and took many visits to DL over the years. Some day I'm going to dig though all my mom's photos and find all of our trips. R has only been to DL once when she was 3, but she is a planner and she has big plans for our November trip. She asks to watch POV vids on YouTube all the time. She gets magic. She creates it, soaks it in, giggles and shines. I really can't wait until our next trip to watch her experience it all again. She has already picked out her first ride, HM. This makes me love her just a little bit more. S, my husband doesn't really get it but he goes along with it. This is a pic from our trip in 2016 when R was three.
Alas this trip neither of them would be joining me. Instead a coworker and friend, Allison would come down with me and we'd kinda celebrate my 40th. At least that's what I told S when I started planning the whole thing. I had been wanting to do an adult only trip for a long time but it just hadn't happened. Allison and I started to concoct a plan a few month prior and voila! We made it work! Allison is a DL pro, better than I am and she was a great person to visit with. We planned way in advance, we had goals (mostly food ones) and set our sights on 4 days, hoppers with MaxPass.
Food Goals! We made some good progress, but more to tackle in future trips! I forgot to
take a pic of our completed list darn it!
Because this was so many months ago, and my brain lacks the ability to remember full days and the order in which they happened, let alone what I had for lunch yesterday I'm going to break this up into a few sections. Thanks for coming along with me!

She was in her element and I will never forget her joy in this moment.
