My Bucket List

This is my "Bucket List" of things I want to do during my time in Florida.  I'm still adding to it at the moment and as I complete things I will make sure to tick them off.

Disney Parks
  • Go on every single ride 
    • Achieved! (and I have many favorites about which I shall blog very soon!)
  • Keep a ride count 
    • Failed (I kept this up for the first couple of months but eventually it just got tedious and I couldn't see the point any more)
  • Watch every single show 
    • Achieved! (In truth, I never saw The Little Mermaid, but that was because I didn't want to so I'm counting this as achieved)
  • Find Hidden Mickeys 
    • Achieved! (lots and lots!)
  • Disneybound at least once (but really as much as possible) 
    • Achieved! (I didn't do this as much as I wanted to but I had some great experiences - look out for blogs on that soon!)
  • Get a photo with all of the princesses 
    • Failed (Yeah, I kind of just gave up on this one)
  • Get photos with the Big 6 (Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Goofy, Pluto, Daisy) at all 4 parks 
    • Failed (I sort of tried this but honestly I sort of forgot lol)
  • Do the 4-Park Challenge (Attend all 4 parks in one day)

  • Do a 24 Hour Challenge 
    • Next Time (see previous comment)
  • Go to a park by myself 
    • Achieved! (All the time!  I used to go in before work sometimes or before/after meeting people.  Doing the parks solo is fantastic and I'll blog about it soon)
  • Go to rope drop at every park at least once. 
    • Failed (Yeah...the parks open really early and I'm so not a morning person)
