Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, welcome to the Magic Kingdom! Err...my trip report. Welcome to the place where dreams come true! Err...the heat reaches temperatures higher than most kindergartners can count. The most magical place on Earth...is here! Err...the most humid-filled place on Earth...is here!
Welcome to Disney in September
We just got home from our stay on the surface of the sun a couple days ago and I enjoyed writing my first TR so much that I thought I'd do it all over again! I don't know if I can say the same for going to Florida in September.
Okay, okay, I'm being a little dramatic about the heat but for those who have been to WDW in the summer...am I actually being that dramatic?
I actually remember the moment the heat hit me for the first time. I walked out of the car after arriving on property and I said "this is it? What are all those people on the disboards talking about - this isn't that bad!" Ha...Hahahahaha. You can all laugh in my face now. I think I must have been blinded by the magic.
Should I stop talking about the heat now and maybe start TRIP REPORTING?
The Deets
The Who: that'd be me, Candace, and my fiance, Joe! Joe and I got engaged in Disney back in January during Wishes and I'm still reeling from it. It was truly a dream come true for a Disney freak (we wear that flag proudly here, right?). If you want to read about it WELL GREAT NEWS FOR YOU because you can right here: http://www.disboards.com/threads/se...rip-updated-8-28.3371385/page-7#post-53468829
If you couldn't guess, that's me...the Candace of the equation, not the Joe.
And my dream guy, who became a Disney freak by default when he asked me to marry him.

Spoiler alert on his shirt. Story later. It's a good one.
We're both enjoying our last year in our twenties. You do the math. It's pretty complicated.

The What: a trip to Disney World?
The Where: the surface of the sun. Okay, okay...the first night we spent at AKL Club Level and then switched to All-Star Sports for the rest of the trip. Just...if you read no further than this please don't ever follow in those footsteps. Never start your trip in a Deluxe, let alone CLUB LEVEL, and switch to a value. Don't get me wrong, I love my Pop Century but maybe not after unlimited snacks, beer, and wine and a balcony that you can walk out to and stare at giraffes at any time.
Started from the top...
Now we here.
The Why: Does anyone here really need a reason? What we told people though: "we probably won't be able to take another vacation until after the wedding, we got a great rate, blah blah blah." Really, we just like Disney. Let's be honest.
The When: September 24-October 3! It actually began on September 23 since we drove because me and flying are about as bad a combination as spending the day at Food and Wine and then riding Mission: Space.
Welp, that should get us started!
So away we go...it's a festival of humidity!
