Recently, Brad was the best man in his friend’s wedding. Of course, that meant he was in charge of planning the Bachelor party. Also of course, Walt Disney World was floated around as a possibility. That plan didn’t work out, since the groom and his groomsmen comprise mainly of teachers in various school districts and musicians with church gigs and they couldn’t all get the same weekend off. But, we did start the initial planning for a Bachelor weekend in Walt Disney World. How do you plan a Bachelor party in a place full of kids and families? Here’s how.

5 Tips For Visiting Walt Disney World With Grandparents

Brad and I recently got back from a big family trip down to Walt Disney World. We were a total party of nine: me and Brad; his parents; his sister, Rachel; his grandparents, Gram and Pops; and his cousin, Gina, and her husband, Matt. We had a great time as three generations of one big family, plus a few Cast Member friends sprinkled in here and there.

Brad has been really fortunate to go to Disney with his grandparents many times in his life. Gram and Pops have the worst FOMO ever so when Brad and I got Annual Passes, so did they (and Rachel, and then a year later, his parents too).

We’ve traveled to Disney with Gram and Pops quite a few times since then (including a Spring Break road trip in 2015 where the van broke down. Twice). So we wanted to share a few tips we’ve learned along the way on visiting Disney with grandparents.

On our Spring, 2016 Friendcation, we celebrated Nathan’s birthday. When I asked him how he wanted to celebrate, like what park or restaurant he wanted to do, he answered resoundly “Drink around World Showcase.”

So that’s what we did.

Now, we did to a little planning beforehand. We knew a few places/ drinks we definitely wanted to experience, but for the most part, we just walked around Epcot and enjoyed our day.

Main Street is a war zone when it comes time for Wishes. It feels like everyone on the entire planet is packed into a small space. Navigating the craziness can quickly get overwhelming and scoring a clear view of the castle gets frustrating.

Sure, you know you need sunblock, ponchos and bandaids with you in the parks, but here are 8 items that will make your days a breeze.

Brad has had this back pack for years, all the way through undergrad and now into grad school. And, it's still in great shape! This backpack is a trooper. We really do recommend investing in a quality backpack, and North Face brand offers great, longterm choices.
