I also want to concur khertz comments about PTRs, they are very hard to keep interesting and continue to post stuff to. I think of them as more "bookmarks" for people that enjoy reading about what you are doing, so once one TR ends, they will know when the next TR begins. TRs are fun to write because it gives you a chance to relive memorable moments, and also keep a "record" of them outside of just pictures.
That's exactly it! I used to keep an online journal in high school & college and always had the most fun documenting holidays & vacations. Once I started working full time, I found I didn't have much time or desire to keep up with it anymore. So I was very excited to find this whole area of the boards to keep a record of my Disney trips! And the best part about posting them here vs. an online journal is there are a lot more people really interested in reading about your trip on the Dis!
Thanks for the info! I was 90% sure we would go with POFQ, but you and khertz have pushed me towards 99.9% certainty. I think the key words for me are "quaint and peaceful." I loved AKL and POP, but this time we want something more relaxing, so I'm convinced POFQ is what we need. I didn't realize that about AofA and free dining, but that isn't even swaying me at this point, because I showed DH photos of AofA and he was like...ummm, no. Too much color and mermaid world explosion. He really wants a more low-key resort this time, too, and LOVED the idea of the boat ride to DTD.
Good points on the PTR thing. I can see how it'd be hard to keep it interesting, but khertz you are doing a great job. I'm going to think about doing a TR after we return - it seems fun and would be a nice way to document the trip!
Re: the bolded...
And thank you! I have saved up a couple ideas for posts to get me through to our DL trip. I hope you do decide to do a TR for your trip. They are so much fun to read and to write!
