Shannon (2O Something) Never Been to WDW "Officially". Only to MK, which doesn't really count. Way too overhwelmed with information and, in general, way too excited.

Melissa (24) Soon to be in WDWCP and obsessive Disney World Planner. Can't get enough Food in WDW, espeically form Kringla Bakery and Whispering Canyon Cafe'! (Of course, I am the "official" trip report writer!)

Our Trip planning started many months ago with a slight glimmer we may get to got to WDW in October 2003 for Halloween and the Food and Wine Festivel.

Then One cool october day I opened the mail. I recieved financial aid from school. I had already saved more than enough money to go to school. So, I called Shannon in a hurry. We decided to go to WDW July 6-13 and then head to visit my aunt and uncle in Cocoa beach 13-15.

We have been planning since we "officially" booked our trip back in January of this year. It has been an exciting time for Shannon and I, especially since this is a "girls" only trip. We can just do Disney, "girls style" (Which, of course, means food, rides, shopping, fun...in that order!)

We decided to stay at CSR, since it looked beautiful! We then had to plan our trip by deciding which park to go to when. We tried to make these choices basd on when EE would be if it came back prior to our trip. Neither of us wanted to do EE anyway, so we decided to avoid the possibility of running into it. Then we had the very very tough choice of deciding where to eat in WDW. This, I think, is one of the most difficult choices to make while there. There are so many wonderful places to choose from! We then make the descision as to what was a priority for us to see.

Now, after all this time and energy planning, asking questions of our fellow DISers, and making difficult choices....we are finally ready to head to WDW.

More WDW Fun to follow after July 15...
