Have fun! Yes 119 still works. BG1 is best for modifying, not booking, from recent reports.

I love this! At least your lumbago isn't acting up!

This was actually DH's idea. He's started following WDW news and when he saw CoP was being refurbished, he said we had to do a quick trip before it closes. I have officially converted him! Almost makes up for my oldest DS aging out of Disney.

Was able to snag an early LL for BTMR from the plane using MDE. Yeah! We've landed and are will be in our way to WDW soon!

Woohoo!

We're staying at CCV. Room not ready yet. Dropped our bags and we just boarded a bus to MK!!!

There's hope for your son. Mine claimed to have aged out at 16. But now, at 26, he's happy to be brought along assuming we pay lol.

I have faith that he will have a change of heart in a few years. We left him home. Just me, DH, and our younger 2 this time.

MK doesn't look crowded. Hoping that Starbucks will be one our longer waits. But caffeine was very much needed after our early wake up.
10:40am on 6/19/26 by
kfkennedy1
Coffee obtained. In line for spring rolls now.
Newly painted castle is beautiful.
10:48am on 6/19/26 by

Did the refurbed BRMR. So much smoother and loved the updated scenes/effects. Put our name on the list at McKim's Mile House. About to watch CBJ while we wait for our name to be called.
11:26am on 6/19/26 by
kfkennedy1
Wait, have you not done COP yet?!
12:07pm on 6/19/26 by
popupcamper
No CoP yet. Planning to do it twice today but wanted to use our LLs first so we can book others.
12:09pm on 6/19/26 by
kfkennedy1
After CBJ I grabbed TBA at the drop. In the Dave lounge now. Hadn't been in here before. Really nice break from the heat.
12:11pm on 6/19/26 by
kfkennedy1
I meant DVD lounge
1:42pm on 6/19/26 by
kfkennedy1
After that PoC. Then Beak & Barrell, but somehow I messed up and made the ressie for 3 people instead of 4. They were able to add a fourth but only standing. DS-10 wasn't happy.
1:45pm on 6/19/26 by
kfkennedy1
At B&B, DH had the siren's whisper (just ok). I had the barrels a'blazin' ( I really liked bc I like spicy drinks); DD had the cursed treasure (she only liked the whipped cream) and DS had the south seas splash (so so). Don't think I'd bring the kids back
1:48pm on 6/19/26 by
kfkennedy1
We also had the corn tortas. I really liked. DD and DS decided to head out before me and DH. When Magic Carpets was closed due to lightning, they called to tell me they were doing Tiki Birds. Made me proud that they would choose that. But, it closed too
2:03pm on 6/19/26 by
kfkennedy1
Kids went for file whip instead of our TBA LL turned into an anytime (not raining but closed for lightning) and now CoP is about to start!!!!
2:04pm on 6/19/26 by
kfkennedy1
I like the corn things too at B&B. That's weird for Tiki Birds to be closed. It's a Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow!

Watched CoP. I'll miss this iteration but excited to see what they do with the refurb. Room is ready so waiting on the boat to CCV.
2:41pm on 6/19/26 by
kfkennedy1
Since it was a single night booked last minute, we booked a cabin. Super excited! Plan is to chill there for the next few hours until it cools off and afternoon storms pass through. Then EP and back to MK to end the night.
2:42pm on 6/19/26 by
kfkennedy1
What a great start to your day! Say goodbye to CoP for those of us who can't.

WAIT - A CCV CABIN??!!!! I can't wait to hear about this.
3:00pm on 6/19/26 by

Thx to @kfkennedy! Because of this post, I decided to book 1 night next week at contemporary to see COP one (or2) last time!! DD19 is joining me for a crazy 36h trip!!

CCV cabin is incredible. Wish we had points for more than 1 night. DD watched some World Cup then napped. DH and DS did the hot tub. I took a bath. We are all refreshed and ready to head back to the parks in a bit. EP for a little then end the nt at MK.
4:40pm on 6/19/26 by
kfkennedy1
What an awesome trip to follow! Thanks for taking us along.

CCV cabins look so gorgeous
DS19 says he'l come back when we can pay for him to drink around the world.. if he's not off skiing in Japan then

Good thing you have a cabin with the AC problems WL is having.

@canadianminnie-yay!! Hope you have a great time!
6:08pm on 6/19/26 by

@utang-super grateful for the AC in the cabin. And it didn't help that in addition to the AC being out at the lodge, the pools were closed for lightning even tho not raining. But they were giving out free ice cream, cooling towels, waters, etc.
6:09pm on 6/19/26 by

We did TT. I grabbed my PH magnet. Club Cool. A little time to spare before our GotG LL. Kids wanted to do MS. DH went with them. God bless him. I opted for a beer instead. Waiting for them on a bench near Gaudians, people watching with my IPA.
6:13pm on 6/19/26 by
kfkennedy1
Got Conga. Not our fav song but I love that ride. Grabbing a quick bite at Connections now.
6:53pm on 6/19/26 by
kfkennedy1
And I forgot my favorite water bottle by the bench I was waiting for them on and realized it right after we entered the GotG queue. Fortunately it was still there! Luck is on my side. Although DH thought I was ridiculous for thinking someone wld take it.
7:02pm on 6/19/26 by
kfkennedy1
Grabbed food at Connections. Waiting for Soarin' IN B1!!!
7:40pm on 6/19/26 by
kfkennedy1
Was fun to have something new, but the transitions were sudden and not sure that the scents all match with the scenes.
8:06pm on 6/19/26 by
kfkennedy1
Finally on the mono back to MK. Feeding the kids really cut into my plan. Ha!
8:16pm on 6/19/26 by
kfkennedy1
INPORTANT QUESTION: If we are late for TBA but still within the 119 grace period, will it take our anytime pass?
8:18pm on 6/19/26 by
kfkennedy1
We didn't risk it. Kids really wanted to do HM. Did that with MP and then booked it to TBA. Made it shortly before the 119 minute mark. Boarding soon.
9:16pm on 6/19/26 by
kfkennedy1
It won't take the MEP.
9:17pm on 6/19/26 by
popupcamper
After TBA, we did Buzz and Tron. Too tired for CoP. Caught HEA on the way out (it was delayed due to rain). Stopped at the Confectionery for popcorn and goodies. And on the boat back to WL now.
11:09pm on 6/19/26 by
kfkennedy1
Surprised how quick and easy the boats have been.
11:10pm on 6/19/26 by
kfkennedy1
We were moving slow this morning. But we are at the bus stop. Should get to AK shortly before early entry ends. We're headed to Everest so hopefully we can get in a few rides before the line gets long. I was sad to hear about the change impacting SR.
7:18am by
kfkennedy1
Did EE 5 times before DH and I needed to bail. Kids are still riding. While waiting for them , did some shopping and got a yummy breakfast sandwich from Drinkwalla. Pancakes with sausage and guava jelly.
9:06am by
kfkennedy1
DS now holds the record in our family for most consecutive rides in Everest: 7. Watched Zootopia after that. I didn't like it and miss ITtBaB. Kids and DH preferred Zootopia. Then FoP and we are on the bus to EP now.
10:41am by
kfkennedy1
Awesome. My DD has done 7 as well. Crazy! And yes, Everest is always very quiet in the morning. Everyone runs to Pandora
10:47am by
Totsypooh
Everyone was hangry and tired when we got to EP. Refueled at Connections. Waiting for GotG now.
12:03pm by
kfkennedy1
Everybody Wants to Rule the World. In first two rows. Fam was very excited.
Decided to scrap our original plan for EP because we're running late, it looks like rain, and everyone is tired. Going to HS now.
12:29pm by
kfkennedy1
Did the new RNRC. Still hurts my head/neck a bit but really like the muppets overlay. Got Walkin' in Sunshine. Great song and fit really well. Book SDD at the drop and modified our ToT earlier.
1:56pm by
kfkennedy1
Tried the berry churro at muppets. Like a bready jolly rancher. Not a fan. Got ice cream for DS and a beer for me since I wasn't able to get an orange slush or a Viking coffee at EP. About to ride ToT.
1:58pm by
kfkennedy1
After ToT, DD got a regular churro and the rest of us shared a Jack's yum yum cookie. Cookie was tasty but a little dry. SDD came back up so we're in line for that now. Seems like it will be a long wait even with an LL.
2:28pm by
kfkennedy1
The wait for SDD wasn't bad at all after that we did MFSR (loved that they changed up the scenes and that gunners can do manual mode for more of a challenge) and then ST. On the bus back to WL to grab our bags and head to the airport.
