Back from an AMAZING trip to WDW!

**Update**​

Yay! I'm back home everyone! Although I wish I could have stayed, I am happy to be back home.

The Trip To WDW (Nov. 14):
The trip up there was a nightmare. We left at 2:20PM from West Palm Beach, FL. About 2 and a half hours on the road, a tire blew on my trailer. My parents and I heard this horrible "bang" noise from outside. My mom looked outside the window, and all she could see was rubber flying into the air from the tire. We were about 30 minutes away from Walt Disney World when this happened. So what we did next is we had to go to the nearest service plaza which was 5 miles away from where we were. Those were the longest 5 miles of my life. I kept thinking the trailer was going to flip over or something. Eventually we got there safe, and the new plan was to unhitch (unconnect the trailer from the truck) the trailer and go find a tire like at Wal-Mart or Pep Boys. When my dad went to unhitch it, the battery wouldn't work. So we had to call the road ranger guy to give us a jumpstart for the trailer to unhitch. After that, we left the trailer in the parking lot of the service plaza to go find a tire from a nearby store. I also have 4 hot and sweaty dogs panting in the truck, so that wasn't helping things. We eventually found a tire and my dad bought a new battery as well. We went back to the trailer, replaced the tire, and hitched the trailer back onto the truck and we were on the road again. We didn't arrive at Ft. Wilderness until 10:30PM. (Sorry if that didn't make any sense, I'm REALLY tired)

Park Days (Nov. 15), (Nov. 16), and (Nov. 17):
The first day we went to Magic Kingdom because we got a reservation for the Passholder Fantasyland Preview. My mom spent 7 hours trying to get our reservation set up. The first call took 3 hours. We were on hold for that long. The guy that picked up took my mom's name for the sign-up, but nothing else. No e-mail, no phone number, no address, none of the names of the other guests in our party, NOTHING. My mom tried called several more times asking if there was some kind of e-mail confirmation that she was supposed to get, but they said that they had sent it every time. We never got it. My mom called for a final try about 3 days before the trip. She asked to speak to a manager and finally got some help. There was some other person with MY MOM'S NAME that took our reservation. So eventually we got that straightened out and got our reservation back and scheduled it when we wanted. So after we get there, we go to get our wristbands for the Fantasyland Preview. After that, we went back to the new Fantasyland area to begin whatever preview we were getting. Once we got there, we noticed a large number of people going into the new Fantasyland and they didn't have the wristbands. What had happened was not enough people signed up for the Fantasyland preview, so they had a dress rehearsal day when WE were supposed to have the exclusive preview. So my parents and I went down to Guest Relations and talked with them. We told them everything and with that, they gave us 4 fast passes and what else? FREE MICKEY'S VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS PARTY TICKETS. I had an absolute BLAST going. I got to go get LE Christmas Pins from the Frontierland Trading Post and guess what else? I met DPF Member TiggerMickey or Judy! It was all just a coincidence too! This was the first time I have ever met a DPF member! I also met Clancy! I don't know if you've heard of him or seen him, but he's really nice and he's a big pin trader! He stays at a campground nearby for 6 months and comes to WDW EVERYDAY and goes to 3 PARKS EVERYDAY. I have no idea how he does it. It's amazing! I wish I lived close by like that :/ But other than that, Day 1 was pretty amazing. I guess I have to think if we didn't have the problems, we wouldn't have any tickets, and I wouldn't have had such a good time that night

I'll continue to update this.... I just get so tired xD
