Hello to one and all!!
I have never composed a pre-trip report before, so give me a little bit of slack should I accidentally violate some cardinal rule of pre-trippies. My name is Duff and I am the author of this fairytale!
I also have a trip report going on right now if anyone is interested! However, this is not about the LAST trip.... this is about the NEXT trip. Sadly I can't do any colors with my text while at work. But I will edit this later to add pics and decent text.
The NEXT trip is the trip to end all trips!! Literally!!
Background
Once upon a young Boy and Girl lived in a magical place called Orlando. All was well with the happy little couple as they shared a mutual love for Disney. They even had annual passes for 5 years so that they could go to this most joyous of places whenever they pleased. Since the happy duo lived 15 minutes away this happened very frequently. They went so often that they began to take advantage of all the joy they had! This ecstatic couple had no idea of how lucky they were and assumed the magic of it all would never end.
They even got engaged in this wondorous world. Then... something horrible happened.
COLLEGE GRADUATION!!!
The boy and the girl graduated college and were forced to move south. Into a desolate land known as Miami. They were now ripped apart from the magical imaginative place which filled their very souls with so much elation. For two years the couple languished and fretted over their lost experiences. How could they not have known how good they had it.
The Boy pursued higher education while the girl worked to help. After the Boy was done with his schooling the Girl would also return to institutions of higher learning to pursue more education for herself. Life seemed to get in the way of ever returning to that happy place!
Something had to be done. So the young couple sat and thought... they thought hard. They realized they had ONE YEAR. One year between when the Boy finished school and when the Girl could go back (you see.. the Girl's master's program requires work experience for a few years). So they hatched a plan. They would buy the Seasonal Florida passes and return to relive the memories they missed so much!
So the Young Lovebirds bought themselves that seasonal pass and then began what would come to be known as "The Year of the Disney Freak". Friends and loved ones would be awed by how many time one couple could return to the same place and still frolic like 5 yr olds. Yet they did not understand. This was the couples happy place.
A place like no other in the world. It was Disney World. The couple was very happy.... the Year was great! But something very sad loomed on the Horizon...
You see this magical gift was only to last one Year. They were given one year to escape reality and then things would go back to the way they were. The Boy and Girl looked sadly toward the future when the passes would fade away. They thought once again. How to end the best year ever? They thought... and had an idea! They would make one last trip and it would the the BEST TRIP EVER! They would plan it out like never before and experience new things to build a deeper appreciation for this magical land. Yes, a longer trip than ever before. A better trip than ever before.
This is where our tale begins.....
Here is also a picture of our happy couple!

They were ecstatic and immediately called Jay to see which hotels had the best prices with that wonderful CM discount. The couple was torn.... Animal Kingdom Lodge or Polynesian? The couple set a price limit (sure the fairy's were willing to pay but the couple did not want to take advantage of that). When they called Jay they were thrilled to find that the POLYNESIAN was within the price range! AKL was also in range but Jay reccomended against it due to construction...
