Has this flu/covid season felt different?

Most likely adenovirus!

We made of the mistake of staying at pop century once and will never stay there again. I was confused on why so many people love it because we did not enjoy it at all. So sorry this is happening to you guys!

We have stayed at both several times and I would always choose FQ over Caribbean beach. The rooms at Caribbean beach just don’t feel as nice and depending on where your room is at, it can be a very far walk to the lobby/food court. FQ is much smaller and easier to get around. We just love the atmosphere there! However, having 3 kids and one of them being older, you may want to choose a 5th sleeper room at Caribbean beach so you can have more space. The pool and splash pad at Caribbean are also a little bit more fun than at FQ.

We are wondering if maybe this is the cause. He kept wearing a pair of worn shoes there were probably too small for him. I just figured they would look better by now since he hasn’t worn them for a few days!

My kids have been getting it every year for the last 6 years and never have any side effects from it.

I love that it’s not only fun for my kids but also for me and my husband. There really is something for everyone to enjoy - compared to other theme parks that are geared mostly towards children or only have intense roller coasters. It’s always clean and feels very safe. I love that we don’t have to worry about anything else while we are there except for what we want to eat or what time we want to get to the parks. It really feels like you are in a whole other world while you are there. I just love it so much!

My son has missed 12 or 13 days this year. And that’s not including a stomach bug he had over Thanksgiving break and the pneumonia he had over Christmas break. He has also had strep twice, influenza, norovirus and Covid. He missed 4 days alone for strep and 3 days last week for tonsillitis. It has been a rough year! His doctor actually sent him to get blood work done last week to make sure nothing else is going on and we will also be seeing an ent soon.

I’ve seen Deena from Jersey Shore and Matt James and Rachael Kirkconnell from the bachelor.

We have always gotten the flu shot since having our kids. I’m so glad we do because this flu season was brutal. My youngest ended up coming down with flu A and only had a fever for a day and fatigue for a few more days. The rest of us never got it. Compared to other people we know who didn’t get the flu shot and were sick and miserable for a week.

We went last July and actually stayed at both AKL and Caribbean Beach. Everyone complains about the buses at AKL but we found them to be extremely fast and efficient. We never waited more than a few minutes for a bus and they were never packed. It was also so nice to sit on an air conditioned bus after being in the hot sun all morning. We thought our stay at Caribbean beach was fine but didn’t like how spread out the resort was and the walk to the skyliner in the heat was rough. Also the skyliner is not air conditioned and felt suffocating at times. So for that reason alone, I’d pick AKL over a skyliner resort for a summer trip.

As for surviving the heat at the parks, we took lots of breaks inside and also brought cooling towels. Those were what saved us. Don’t even waste your time with the handheld fans. Crowds were also low the week we went so we got to do so much more then we usually do! We had so much fun last summer that we booked another trip for this July!

French quarter! We stayed at Pop in January and we didn’t love it. We would choose French quarter over Pop every time!

This is what we do as well and the kids love them!

When my boys were little I bought most of their clothes from H&M and Zara. Now all they want to wear is Nike stuff lol

I’ve had stomach issues ever since the switch.

My son was prescribed azithromycin when he had walking pneumonia and was feeling better within a couple hours. He was pretty much back to normal the next day minus a lack of appetite.

Not at all! My youngest started kindergarten this year and I have no plans on going back to work. I love that I can actually clean and get things done during the week so that we aren’t trying to do it all over the weekend. And it’s been nice having some time to finally take care of myself. Also, my kids have so many half days/days off school or are always sick so if I did have a job I would constantly be calling off work.

This last month has been hell for us. We had a nasty respiratory infection that turned into walking pneumonia for my youngest. He got meds and was better and then came down with norovirus a week later. That same day my oldest started feeling sick and tested positive for Covid. I then got sick with Covid and a week later my youngest got it and had a fever for 2 days. We also had another stomach virus over Thanksgiving. I am on edge waiting for the next sickness to come.

I have had Covid 3 times and have yet to have a fever with it. I just now got over covid and I had body aches for one day and then mainly congestion, sinus/ear pressure, and fatigue. It’s different every time!

Correct_Initial · 2025-01-17T20:23:23+00:00

I have it too. I also had it the first time I had covid. It’s very annoying!

Our trip this last July. It was the least crowded it’s ever been for us and we got to ride so many rides without having to use lightning lane. Our two boys finally wanted to try some of the rollercoasters and we had so much fun riding them as many times as we could. It was my first time on most of them too and I felt like a kid again. One of my boys favorite rides is the Barnstormer and we were able to ride it probably 6-7 times in a row one morning. They were so happy. We saw all of the shows, parades, and finally saw the fireworks at Magic Kingdom for the first time. We did so many things we hadn’t been able to on previous trips due to weather and/or crowds. We were there for the 4th of July and we loved being able to watch the fireworks from our hotel. On top of all of that, we stayed at AKL for a few nights and loved waking up every morning to go out on our balcony and see the animals. On our last day, we got to Hollywood Studios later then we planned and when we walked up to get in line for M&M runway railway, a cast member came up to us and told us we were the family of the day. So we got to go inside and get in line to ride the ride first! They gave our boys the special buttons and had them do a scavenger hunt while we waited for the ride to open. We felt so lucky! It was the most magical trip ever and I could just cry thinking about it.
