Is it bad that we already have our next vacation starting to be planned??? Is it worse that it is just under 2 years away??
Terry and I have decided not to go to WDW next year...
We are going to wait until June/July of 2011 until the next big trip...
Anyone want to take any bets on how long that will last???
As most of you know,
Disney Cruise Line is building 2 new ships... And sending the Wonder to LA for what I am assuming will be Mexican Riviera cruises...
SO! We are taking a
Disney Cruise in June of 2011... Last part of June, maybe beginning of July... Terry turns 30 on the 4th of July that year so we are planning a 3 week blowout... If all goes according to plan and he gets all the time off... Here is how it will work, depending on the dates of the cruise...
We will drive to Las Vegas... yes, Las Vegas, not Los Angeles... you see, we are taking someone with us...
Terry's aunt that we both go visit, LOVES cruises... She also loves Disney...
Even better, she can drink Terry and I under the table...
She is a great aunt and we love her to pieces... Alec and Tailor adore her and she acts like a big kid with them... Her husband died a few years back and he was one of my favorite people in the whole world... His smile could brighten a room... No matter how mad you were or how bad you day was going, he could turn it right around... I have no doubt he will be with us in spirit on this cruise.
She is very excited about this trip... She called the other day since Terry will be there in just 5 short days and I casually asked her if she was interested if we decided to do it, well, I got a call back 2 hours later and she had already decided on a Cat. 6 and where on the boat she wanted to be... I told terry how excited she was and Terry aid, "Well, I guess we just decided to take a cruise!"
Anyways, I got sidetracked there...
Drive to Las Vegas... pick up Aunt... Drive to Los Angeles... Spend a few days at Disney and hopefully a day or 2 at Universal... Get on cruise... I am assuming it will be a week long cruise... Drive back to Vegas... leave kids with Aunt... Terry and I get room on the strip and party for his birthday for a few nights... pick up kids... Drive home...
Jordo... This means we need to keep in touch and make sure sure to hook up while we are in your neck of the woods...
We are thinking it will be a 3 week trip... We will not have the kids in the car day after day, we will get to Aunt's house and spend like 2 days, then head to LA, then after we get back to Aunt's we will spend a day or 2 also... plus we won't drive straight through from Salem to Vegas either, we will stop in Reno...
The hard part of this, is we are not telling the kids... And I can't keep my mouth shut...
This will be hard for me... I think they will eventually be told we are going to see Aunt, but the cruise and any time at a theme park will also be a surprise...
Any bets on how long I can keep the secret???
