This is my first trip report and actually my first ever post on this board. I have been a member for quite a while and enjoy reading others posts, though. So lets start with my introduction I call myself Dsnygrl1205 because like all of you here I love everything Disney! Especially the Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando! I went a handful of times as a kid with Mom, Dad and Brother but didnt really fall in love with it until I returned in 2002. Wow what an enormous change since I had been there last in 1986! It might as well have been my first visit! After that trip I caught the bug and made it an annual trip for the next 5 years then decided yearly wasnt quite enough and have been lucky to be able to go back twice a year for the past two years and show no signs of slowing!
The cast of characters for this trip is me, Cara or Dsnygrl1205.
My DS Aidan age 11 who loves Disney almost as much as I do.
My DN (nephew) Caleb age 9. This was His first visit!
My DM who comes with us every other year or so.
I started planning this trip last September right after I returned from our annual fall trip but didnt book until January when I got a pin code in the mail for 40% off deluxe resorts. We had never stayed at any deluxe but have visited all of them and Animal Kingdom Lodge is by far my favorite so thats what I ended up booking for 8 nights with the quick service dining plan, also a first for us as we usually do the regular dining plan. This time around I didnt want to be tied to one particular park at any given time to make it to an ADR. Plus you get free refillable mugs with the QS and Im so over paying for those things every time we go!
Next up day one: The long drive to the airport and arriving in Orlando!
