Hi everyone,
I am a long time lurker and love reading on the camping boards. My family has been to Disney many times (we were just recently there in March 2010) but have only stayed at the Disney hotels. We have always wanted to camp at the fort, and on our last trip we took a day out to explore the fort hoping to come and camp in 2011.
Fast forward to yesterday.......my husband's company is sending him to Orlando. We are a homeschooling family with two boys ages 13 and 10, so we usually travel with him when we can. Since we are going to be in Orlando.........why not camp at the fort? We made a reservation last night and will be arriving on Saturday for 4 weeks. It's a dream come true and I am scared to death at the same time. Other than myself, my husband and the boys, we will also have our two large fur babies. I am trying to figure out how to prepare for a month at Disney. I know that we have a premium pet loop site. (This is all they had available) We have a 28 ft. travel trailer and we will be traveling from Helena, AL. We are planning to leave on Friday and drive half way. (Not sure what the half way point is) We are not planning on visiting the parks. I have no idea how much to pack, what all I need, I'm not even sure if I am making sense right now. Any tips, suggestions, thoughts, ideas, prayers.....I welcome it all. Sorry for rambling on. Usually when we go to Disney I have months to prepare. I truly am excited and looking forward to this experience, but I'm just a little overwhelmed right now.
Thanks,
Tammy
