I don't really think anyone could ever starve at WDW, but I hope it got your attention!!
We've had a hard year. I wont go into detail, but suffice to say that we not only want a vacation, we NEED a vacation!!
When I tell people I am going on vacation, they always say, "Are you going to WDW AGAIN?" I usually say, "Yes!! Yes we are!!"
This time I can say that it has been 13 months since we have been to our favorite vacation spot! Doesn't sound too long, until I tell you we have gone twice a year for 4 years, the exception being one year we went 3 times, once for 21 days!!! Needless to say, we are ready!!
This will be a budget trip for us, or at least as budget as a week in AKVK in a two bedroom Savannah View room, followed by a week at Marriotts Harbour Lake in a two bedroom villa can be.
How did we make this kind of move, while staying on budget you ask?? (Well maybe you didn't ask, but I'll put it here for those who may want to know!)
We own Hilton timeshare, which trades through RCI into Disney!!! We also own Shell, which trades into Marriott! Pretty nifty points expenditures for a wonderful 2 week vacation in Florida!! :
Next budget move! My daughter owns a Fiat 500, olive green, cute I may add!! We are driving from Central Texas to WDW! 26+ hours actually! Just kidding, we've done this before and made it there and back safely each time!! We've just gone in MUCH larger cars before, like our Durango, a Trailblazer etc. So this will be a first. BUT, this means our transportation cost will only be about $500 or less for 4 people, who would all have to have airline tickets!! So...... , well not quite, but, you get the picture!!
Who are we, you ask??!! Well maybe you didn't, but I thought I would let you know, with pictures soon!!! Coming up in the next chapter!
