Five For The Road

06/08/2026

We have been taking our kids to Disney World since they were babies and now they are teenagers. A lot has changed but a lot has stayed the same. We still love our familiar favorites but it is honestly more fun than when they were younger. Now we can walk around, try new foods, and enjoy spending time together at the parks. Not that we didn’t when they were small but big kids is a much more relaxed vibe. Full guide to Disney World with teens on the blog.

You must plan time to see the WaterWorld show at Universal Studios Hollywood. It is the craziest stunt show I have seen at a theme park.
