So excited for a week at the most magical place on earth! While I know this visit might look different than previous years, I have no doubt that the magic is still there.

I’ll be sharing lots of tips, tricks + favorites on Instagram stories this week, but I thought for now I would hit the high points of our itinerary, what my favorite rides are and what’s in my suitcase.

What we did at Disney March 2021:

Day 1: travel day
3pm: check into Grand Floridian
6pm: dinner at Chevy’s Fresh Mex + ice cream at Kilwins in Celebration
8pm: quick Publix (in Celebration) run for snacks + things for our rooms

Day 2: Magic Kingdom
8am: breakfast at the Gasparilla Island Grill (I did oatmeal + a muffin) *due to covid, this was a mobile order only dining experience which could be done through the My Disney Experience app*
9am: head over to Magic Kingdom via the monorail — this morning we rode: Pirates of the Caribbean, Mine Train and Big Thunder Mountain
12pm: mobile ordered lunch at Pecos Bill (I did a chicken rice bowl) *PRO TIP: place your order for lunch while standing in line for a ride about 30 minutes to an hour before you’re ready to eat. That will have your order ready for pickup as soon as you’re off the ride!
1pm: rode Haunted Mansion, barnstormer and Little Mermaid
2pm: back to Grand Floridian for the kids to nap and sat by the pool
530pm: had Pizza delivered from Flippers to the hotel and ate by the pool
