Pre-Trip Report: Labor Day Weekend, Birthday, Mother/Son Trip (August/September 2025)
Virginia sits down with Alex to talk through the plans for their upcoming Labor Day Weekend Mother/Son trip in honor of Virginia’s birthday. They will be staying at All-Star Sports on their arrival day and taking advantage of the free water park day at Blizzard Beach (a first time for both the resort and that water park). For the remainder of the trip, they will be staying at Pop Century Resort, getting in plenty of park time (especially at Epcot), and have tickets for the DVC Moonlight Magic party at Hollywood Studios.
Trip Dates: August 29 - September 2, 2025
Pre-Trip Interview: recorded 8/26/25
