So our trip is done, and now it's time to head home. We didn't do breakfast or anything there. Just packed up and set out on long drive home...... a complete 30 minutes.

But checkout went through without a major hitch........ excecpt the fact that we forgot that my wife left her rings in the safe that's in the room and after our keys didn't work anymore so she had to get someone to escort her back to our room so that she could retrieve them.

Looking back, we had an EXCELLENT vacation!!! Although we're local, it's great to just get away from everyday life for a few days. And there's no better place to do that than Disney. If finances permit it, we would definitely stay at the Beach Club again. The rooms were great.... the staff was great.... the Boardwalk/Beach Club/Yacht Club atmosphere is great... and being able to walk to EPCOT was just amazing!!! It was cool to have such a fantastic "backyard" for a week. And even though we haven't stayed at too many Disney resorts, we would definitely rank this up there with another place we love.... Port Orleans French Quarter. POFQ is so beautiful and peaceful. And the smaller size makes it very cozy and quaint (unlike the REAL French Quarter). It's just a completely different vibe than you'll experience at other places on Disney property. But Beach Club.... we hope to see you again sometime!!!!

Doing This Trip Report: For anyone that has followed this trip report from the beginning; you'll know that I started off updating it pretty often, but let it collect dust after a while. Part of that was the fear that it would eventually just become a 'list' of the things we did; which wasn't really a lot to begin with. Here's why....
Going into this trip, I knew that I wanted to try and do a decent trip report. I did do one for a
Disney Cruise; but that was mainly pictures, and it wasn't a day-by-day breakdown. But during the first couple of days of this vacation, I was taking notes throughout the day. This was really invaluable in that fact that I was able to remember everything we did, and when we did them. It also helped me to take note of anything unique/interesting that might've happened throughout the day. So after posting the goings-on of the beginning, I kind of got stuck a little. But the pictures that I took were the main thing that helped me remember the flow of everything. I was at least able to go through them, and be like... oh, this happened... or this is what we did. If not for those images, this report would've ended quite abruptly.
In November, we will be taking a week-long voyage on the Disney Fantasy. This will be our 3rd cruise, but the 1st since our daughter was born. She will have just turned 2 by then, and she is already in love with a lot of Disney characters. So we absolutely can't wait to see her light up on the ship. I also already know that I'll be doing a trip report for that as well. Since it will be a new ship for us, and other parts of our experience will be unique, I know that there will be much more to write about. And I'll definitely be using my 'take notes' advice to keep abreast of everything we do. It's one thing to look at Disney World pictures of subjects I'm completely familiar with, and be able to feed of them to tell the story. But if I barely know what I'm looking at in the first place, I'll be totally lost.
So for anyone who's read any of this report..... Thanks for looking!!! I hope I have helped or inspired you in any way.
See Ya Real Soon!!!!!!!!!! ....... in November anyway.
And heres how much our little girl has grown up
