We did even rode Tron three times and Avatar twice.

They should really give you a 24 hour bootcamp to train you how to maximize using the app and the Genie stuff.
We stayed at Animal Kingdom Lodge and thought the shuttle system was easy to use. Other than it being hotter than Hades, the Disney trip wasn't the nightmare I envisioned. I'm not trying to go back again, but the kids loved it and none of us killed each other.
I was also pleasantly surprised at the food and beverage prices. We bought a dining plan, but if you were just gonna grab a burger and fries at a quick service place it was like $12.99. And bottles of water were $3.50. Pretty comprable to your average fast food prices which was a bit shocking. I expected way worse.

Did you guys use magicband or magicband +? It’s pretty mixed on what people prefer who go a lot but I’m curious if you guys felt it necessary or questioned if you needed it when researching going. My wife and I prefer it just as another option for reducing phone usage, a little extra “magic” and just a fun thing to wear.
