We're back from Disney w/ pics!!!!
So we are totally wiped and exhausted and there were some meltdowns, but we had a great time!!! We stayed at PO Riverside and it was Fantastic!!!! There was so much to do at the resort! We will never stay anywhere else. The weather was great and the parks weren't that crowded. We ate at Garden Grill for the first time and it has become our new favorite restaurant!!! The food was amazing and the kids loved it with the characters!! I am giving a huge shout out to the Rose and Crown Pub in England! They were so accomodating with the stroller and got us right in without a reservation!! The food was great there too!! This time we weren't too impressed with The Crystal Palace, but the kids loved the Pooh guys!! Germany was amazing as always!! A huge thank you to all that told me about the pass for my son who has autism. Made going on the rides a lot easier!! They were doing a lot of refurbishing but we are already planning our next trip in 2 years!! Here are some pics of our trip. I took almost 400 pics and the Photo Pass has about 100. I still haven't got the cd yet but their pics came out amazing too!!! Thanks for looking!!!!

POR was amazing!!! it was in the middle of all the parks so it only took about 10 minutes to get to the parks. they have pools and a playground and a laundry and they have boat rides and you can get those four person carts to ride around the paths. there are bridges and paths to walk on and there are 2 restaurants and a mart for milk bread and things. we were in a preferred room so it was near the hotel and the pool. anything else just ask!!!! you'll love it!!!!

OMG It was perfect. Well we were there mid january so I am not sure how it was when you were there this week, but for us it was cool in the mornings then afternoons were 70s OMG just awesome!
I am so bad, I hardly put pics on LIF. I always forget! lol I have to order my Photopass CD as well. I took over 400 then theres another 100 on the Photopass but prob 60 good ones.

Yes they do - that is why the girls want to stay there - because they want the princess rooms.
Did you have a car or did you use the buses? Did you eat in the TS restaurant or only the counter service place?

Thank you!! We wouldn't have a car either -so we would be using their buses! BTW how was ME? What other hotels did you bus share with? What stop were they?
Did you get a resort mug? I heard that they don't have the minute maid apple juice like they did at the poly - was there anything other than soda and hi C for the kids with the mug?

We loved ME for the poly but it was the 3rd of 4 stops - (we went to WL and Contemp and then they went to the GF after the poly so it was a long ride). I was hoping it would be shorter this time.
We always do the mugs - but at the poly they had apple juice (minute maid) in the refills - I hear that there is no juice just soda, coffee, hot chocolate or tea. Is that true or was there a juice choice for the girls (I think they have Hi c but DD#1 can't have that). I'm hoping they will have the apple juice so I won't have to buy any otherwise DD#1 won't be able to use her mug.
