Bruised, Bleeding and beginning to Barf...the prequel

[cmcsharon]

I've thought a lot about how I would title my trip report...sad, I know. There were many possiblities:

What Dreams May Come...too sappy
If I Only Had a Brain...nah, then you'd think DH were writing it!
Something Wicked this Way Comes...has possibilities

But, after adding up all the hours in my head spent planning this trip. Planning...then changing...then planning and changing again...it was all summed up quite nicely as: Bruised, Bleeding and beginning to Barf.

Coming to a DisBoard near you...

Cue the Twilight Zone music...doo doo doo doo.......doo doo doo doo.

Cue Rod Sterling...
Picture this...an average family ventures to Walt Disney World for their very first time. They embark on a whirlwind of sights and sounds unlike anything they've ever experienced before. The Happiest Place on Earth...it's called.

But then, (as in all Twilight Zone episodes)...something goes wrong. What is it that will send this happy family into their spiraling decent?

Will they not get the coveted breakfast PS for Cinderella's Royal Table?

Has there been one too many cockroach reports about their hotel?

Did they...gasp...reserve a package paying rack rate?

Let's introduce the cast:

Me...your host, a native Californian, Disneyland veteran, hardworking professional...completely oblivious to the fact that planning a Disney World vacation could become an obsession.

DH...blissfully unaware of all to come. Desires no knowledge of the details and wants no part in any of the planning. When asked when he would like to discuss our itinerary...responds with 'How longs the flight'?

DS 11...tall, smart and very polite...often mistaken for older. Is very excited about the trip...or...very excited to be missing school. You decide.

DD 9...typical, wonderful, 9 year old girl. Loves animals and all things Disney. Wants to be a Veterinarian Rock Star when she grows up.

Cue Rod again...
Join us in May as this family embarks on their first trip to Florida.

Will Disney World live up to the expectations?

Will anyone be voted off the island on their Disney Cruise?

Will the food at the Sci Fi be as bad as everyone says it is?

You're now entering...the Twilight Zone...
doo doo doo doo...doo doo doo doo.

The story continues in May...
