Mndisneygirl · 11-20-2011, 09:23 PM

Hello Everyone!

and

Our family is hopping the pond on Leap Day 2012 and heading to London and Paris! Join us for some planning fun!!!

WHO:
Me, DH, DD10 and DD8

This is us from our March 2011 trip to WDW. We have been to WDW as a family of four 7 or 8 times now. We bought into DVC last year and are excited to keep going back. But this spring break, we're changing it up, saving our DVC points for another time and learning a little French!

WHEN:
February 29, 2012 - March 15, 2012
100 DAYS AND COUNTING!!!

WHERE:
London and Paris (Yes DISNEYLAND Paris!)

WHY:
My girlfriend and her family are living in London for a few years and we can stay with them for free!!! Plus we already have passports!

WHAT:
An extended Spring Break trip - We will be seeing the sights of London and the surrounding areas, Paris, and Disneyland Paris!!!

I hope you'll join me and help us plan our trip!!! More details to come...
