For this trip, we met up with some friends (Meagan and Brantley) who also share a love for Lego!Continue reading “LEGOLAND FL”

Adult Getaways

It doesn’t escape me that I run a travel blog relating to Autism.. and I’ve made two consecutive trips WITHOUT the child with Autism! I’ve gone to Disney TWICE without children in the last 3 months! The first was back in February (and I traveled there solo) and the second was just recently with myContinue reading “Adult Getaways”

Advanced Tickets

We are gearing up for another vacation away! This time, we are headed to Jekyll Island, GA. We have visited there twice before (once pre-kids and once for a overnight trip WITH the kids). It’s a great stopping point when traveling back from Florida (which is exactly what we used it for). Unfortunately, when weContinue reading “Advanced Tickets”

Minnesott Beach, NC

We just returned from a really lovely stay at Minnesott Beach, NC. This was our first time traveling here.. and it wont be the last! It was quiet, convenient, and just what we needed. This particular cottage is called Change in Attitude and is available through Airbnb. It offers 2 bedrooms/2 baths, full kitchen, washer/dryer,Continue reading “Minnesott Beach, NC”

Packing List

There are a ton of packing list available on Pinterest. If you’ve ever looked, you know! A plethora of options to choose from! But I always found I was adding items to our list that I never found on others. So I decided to start from scratch. Will these list work for everyone? Nope. ButContinue reading “Packing List”

Pop Century Resort

I recently returned from a solo stay at Pop Century! It was a first for me.. and I have a lot of thoughts (both positive and negative) that I’m going to unload here! So here we go.. Pop Century is a resort themed by decade (50’s-90’s). The theming is really fun.. and I enjoyed walkingContinue reading “Pop Century Resort”

Quick Service vs. Reserved Meals

If you’ve planned a Disney vacation, you know that there are meal options. Scattered throughout the parks and resorts are what are referred to as either “quick service” restaurants or restaurants that require reservations (character dining, buffets, fine dining, etc.). Pre-pandemic, you could either pay for these meals individually.. or you could buy a diningContinue reading “Quick Service vs. Reserved Meals”

Disney Transportation

Buckle up. This one is a doozy. Transportation at Disney is intense! There are so many options. Which ones work best for your family.. and which ones should you avoid?! I’m going to break them down individually.. and give you my opinion on each! I’ve mentioned it already (and I intend to drill it in)Continue reading “Disney Transportation”

Why do we travel?

I know some of our friends look at us strangely when we tell them we’re headed on ANOTHER trip. Pre-pandemic, I would estimate that we traveled somewhere monthly. A lot of those are smaller/more statewide trips to the beach, mountains, or visiting family.. but there are a few bigger trips thrown in there also. WeContinue reading “Why do we travel?”

Car Travel Tips

We travel a lot by car. Since we live in North Carolina, we are within easy driving distance of both the mountains and beach. Therefore, we choose to drive a lot more often than any other modes of transportation. With that driving experience has come a lot of knowledge about how to plan (there’s thatContinue reading “Car Travel Tips”
