Today is the day.
We have finally booked our 2nd trip to the World, after the last trip being our "Once in a lifetime" trip.
When I booked our first trip in June 2013, DBF was not one bit happy. He thought it was going to be childish, that he was going to be miserable, and spend 2 weeks dreaming of home. WRONG! He loved it!
He has now been converted!
Where: Port Orleans French Quarter.
What: 21 day Ultimate tickets, free QS dining plan, memory maker, and the $200 Disney gift card all included.
Why: We loved POFQ last year, and while we contemplated staying at CSR to make a saving, when we talked about it decided we just couldn't not go back to POFQ!
What Next: SAVE, SAVE, SAVE!
Once again, it is just the 2 of us. And we are going for 3 weeks!! I can't quite believe it, but the DBF said to book 3 weeks as he just couldn't see any other way of going!
As we are going DIY, and have booked direct with Disney, we still have flights to sort out. I am feeling ok at the moment about having no flights (yet!), but I know the day the 11 month window opens, I will be straight on looking to book! [Edit - flights have now been booked, direct from Dublin with Aer Lingus.)
We went to Universal last year for just the one day, primarily for WWoHP, which was amazing! The rest of the day was spent walking around and seeing what else was on offer. We ended up doing The Hulk twice!
So this year, we are looking at booking at least one night at a Universal Resort hotel to take in more.
We also did the Kennedy Space Center, which was brilliant, but this time we really want to do Busch Gardens - I also want to do the Serengeti Safari too.
My PTR is going to be full of updates as I book, plans, bucket lists, so, without further ado, let the planning COMMENCE!
