Walt Disney World 24-Hour Party Trip Report
Over Memorial Day weekend, we headed down to Walt Disney World for the 24-Hour Party, Star Wars Weekends, and just some general good times. During our first trip to Walt Disney World of the year, we dined at a variety of restaurants including Chef Mickey’s, Cinderella’s Royal Table, both Star Wars Character Meals, and more! We also took a ton of photos, and tried out new-to-us things at Walt Disney World.
This trip report takes a look at our experiences during our 5-day Memorial Day weekend trip. This trip report has all of the classic elements of a Bricker trip report: little sleep, lots of photos, tons of eating, and an incredible adventure with Nicolas Cage to kill the ghost of Osama bin Laden. Okay, that reference probably only made sense to SNL fans, sorry, but it if awkward references and unfunny jokes aren’t your thing, it’s probably time to close out this browser tab!

I didn’t even know about the suites at DoubleTree! That sounds like exactly what I need for my family!
Would love to stay at the Double Tree! Disney Junkie since 10 years old here, 32 years later 😉
I Look forward to “reading” (aka looking at pictures. reading is un-American) your trip report.
What a great giveaway! We’re flying down to Orlando in September and this sure would beat staying with my parents…
The closer I can be to Marketplace Co-op, the better! Sooo many amazing new things. You will love everything, Tom! Would also like to finally give Raglan Road a try.

Wow Tom & Sarah! I’ve been following your blog for over a year now and to see how much you’ve grown together, how much your photography has improved, just adds to the nostalgia of taking that WDW trip with my family in Oct. of 2014. My first trip was 1988 and I love seeing the newly updated WDW through your eyes. You guys are truly a gift! Many blessings on your travels ahead. Thank you for sharing and for always being true to who you are in your blogging.
