“That’s the real trouble with the world. Too many people grow up!”-Walt Disney
Well friends, our Disney World trip for 2019 was one for the books. We had the most magical time!! I thought I’d share about our day at Disney World, some tips, and also a few helpful links to really great Disney articles that my friend Amber (she’s a Disney blogger) wrote!!
This was a fast trip for us so we had one day to explore! This is the kids second time to Disney World and my husbands and my fourth time. I planned everything in advance so we knew exactly where to go/what to do. Tip: This is a great plan if you’re only going for a day, I researched transportation, the park layouts, and all the rides/attractions.
Note: We didn’t ride even close to every single ride, we picked the rides that we wanted to ride ahead of time!
Our first park was Animal Kingdom. We got there right when the park opened and went straight to Expedition Everest. Judd and I did the parent swap so we each got to ride with only one person having to wait in line once. Look at how cute they were while waiting for their daddy to come out of the ride.
Then it was off to Africa to ride the Kilimanjaro Safari! The kids (and us) loved this!! 
Our next stop was Avatar World. We didn’t get to ride Flight of Passage (too long of a line) but that’s ok because we will be back! Then it was off to catch the bus to Hollywood Studios!
Look at these cute little bus riders!
We had fast passes for Tower of Terror so we rode that and then headed to Disney Juniors Dance Party! This was one of the biggest highlights of the trip for Camden and Ella, they had a BLAST!
When we got out, we realized one of our strollers wasn’t there. We think someone took ours by accident because there was one in a different color close by. Note: Make sure you put a tag or something so you can find your stroller easily, we forgot to do this. No worries though, Disney World made this right for us! They gave us a brand new very similar umbrella stroller to take place of ours! Thanks Disney World for going over and beyond!!
Then it was time to explore Toy Story World! Such a fun area!!!
The final stop was to Star Wars World, my husband loved this!! They did an amazing job designing the park.
I did a lot of research before the trip as to how to get to each park the fastest, many suggested walking from Hollywood Studios to Epcot so this is what we did. It was about a 20-30 minute walk so if you’re not up for walking, don’t do this! We loved it though because it was so quiet and peaceful and we probably got there faster than other transportation options. We ate lunch on the way at the boardwalk.
We arrived to my favorite park, Epcot!! As we entered we saw Mickey Mouse so of course we had to get a picture! The kids were thrilled to meet Mickey!
Next, we had fast passes to my FAVORITE ride, Soarin! I’m pretty sure I could ride this ride all day long!!
The kids were anxious to see Nemo so The Seas with Nemo was next!
We walked around Epcot a little bit because I love seeing all the different areas! Disney did an amazing job designing this park!
It was time for the kiddos favorite park, Magic Kingdom! We took the monorail this time!
We rode a ton of rides here! I can’t even remember all of them. One of our favorites was It’s a Small World.
We also ate way too much Dole Whip! Just kidding, can you ever eat too much of that? It’s so darn good!
Overall, we had the best time ever! We hope we get to do this every year because there is nothing better than seeing your kids smile from ear to ear!
My sweet friend Amber is a Disney Blogger and has the most helpful blog! I used this several times while planning our trip. Here are a few articles that really stood out to me:
–Fast Pass Basics at Disney World
–Walt Disney World: The Basics for Beginners
–Top 5 Places to at Disney World
A huge thanks to Disney World for hosting us!
We go to Disney as often as we can. For all the times we’ve been there, it’s never gotten old. There really is a magic about it that can’t be compared to anything else.
I completely agree! I feel like it gets more magical as my kids get older too!
Looks like you guys had a great time! Loved all the photos! Disney World is the best!
Thanks! It sure is!!
Fun! Glad you had a great time! This post makes me want to take my own kid when he gets older!
Thanks! They would LOVE it!
Looks like the kids had a great time at Disney world. I love your photos!
Thanks, Kelly!
Wow….how big is this place, though? Lots of places and stop-overs one has to visit without vacating the entire facility?
SOOO big! I swear every time I go, I see something new that I’ve never been before.
Your kids really looked like they had a great time! Disney is indeed the place for kids of all ages! We are looking forward to another trip before the year ends.
I really hope that this year will be the year I finally get to go see Mickey and the gang. I am so glad you guys had such a fun time!
I hope so too!! <3
So glad you guys had a great time! You’ll have to come back when I’m not out of town. Thank you for sharing my articles and I’m so glad you found them helpful!

We loved the safari too, such a fun ride!
I still haven’t gone on the Avatar Ride. I want to…the line is always too long and fast pass isn’t available. I’ll get to it though. 🙂
I hope I get to next time too! It must be awesome for how long people wait, haha!!
Definitely agree with you on that, Disney World is an amazing place to visit with the family. Looks like you guys had a wonderful time there.
