Hey guys!
So I'm leaving tomorrow for Disney World and wanted to get this thread up and started now. This is the trip that never should have been. Way back in February we started planning the trip. My grandfather was put on hospice in July and has been fighting ever since. In September we decided to cancel the trip all together, but as luck would have it, my dad agreed that we should get down to Disney and we managed to take our one week vacation and shorten it down to a long weekend.
That much being said, we had to cut out two parks and a lot of the other fun stuff that we wanted to do, but I think we're going to have a grand time anyways.
A little bit about us.
I'm Kim. I'm 22 and just recently graduated from Penn State University with a degree in Forensic Biology. This was a combined Christmas 2010, Graduation and Birthday gift for me. I'm a bit of a wannabe photographer, but I only have a fancy point and shoot as my camera (but you'd be surprised the quality of pictures that I can get off of it). I prefer to hide behind the camera, but this year we got PhotoPass so that we could have some pictures together. My favorite park has to be Epcot (or Animal Kingdom) and I love Eeyore. I'm a vinylmation addict, so expect there to be some stuff on vinylmations.
This is Nana. She's in her 80s and loves all things Disney. She loves Disney during the Holidays and is almost more excited than I am to get away on this long weekend jaunt. She loves Mickey Mouse and Magic Kingdom, the quintessential Disney. She's an avid pin collector and loves getting to talk to people while trading.
We're doing Free Dining (plus paying for a few meals here and there) and hitting Epcot and Magic Kingdom. We even have an entire day planned just for shopping and resort hopping, so if you're interested, join us on this magical trip report.

start Kim. Nothing better than getting started with a good cup of tea, and they definitely know how to make a proper cup. The Gingerbread House looks great, really looking forward to seeing that in a little more than a week (for us). Your Gran looks like she enjoys life and I bet this was a lot of fun. BTW - I'm Fred from over in the planning group. OK - now you can continue. 
We didn't even go down to the ground floor bc I was afraid I'd take a bite!
