Let me start by saying this is my first report ever and it a few years old so please forgive me 
.
This is me Norma lover of all things Disney. I even painted the house using disney colors from Home Depot... which by the way is out of Alien Green paint samples (hummmm I wonder why
).
This is DH Chris also lover of all things Disney. He hooked me on Disney back in 1999 when we went on our honeymoom.
Now with that out of the way here is the intro to our trip.
Everyone laughs at me because I start to plan our Disney vacations two years in advance. Then I tell them you may laugh now but I will be the one laughing when we get to Disney and I have done everything I want and you all are running around trying to do half of what you want to do. =}
This will be the first trip I and DH will do alone since our honeymoon in 1999. We have gone to Disney twice since then: in 2003 we took my father in law and in 2005 we took my mom, dad, sister, brother, nephew and father in law. This year we were suppose to take my family again but his time with my other sister, brother in law and nephew. Some stuff happen and one by one they started to drop like flies. So our family trip turned into a second honeymoon for us
. Since everyone else dropped from the plans the hubby and I decided to get the DDP (we thought we would give it a try). Since we are on the DDP we made ADR at places we would not normally eat at. Here is a list of our ADR's: Hoop De Do Review (2 TS Credits), 50's Prime Time Cafe, Tony's Town Square, Coral Reef, 1900 Fair & Boatwright ( we are staying at Port Orleans Riverside (that is a whole story in it self).
Like I said we have been to Disney a total of 3 times so far this will our 4th time. We always stay at the value resort All Star Movies and this time it was ganna be no different only we were going to ask to be put in Herby or Toy Story since we have already done the others.
Okay, now the story on how we wond up at New Orleans Riverside. My mom calls me and tells me that Disney has sent me an advertisement and some discounts. So when we go over on the weekend to visit I ask her for the mail and she hands me a booklet and in the booklet is a code for a Moderate Resort at a Value Resort Price. So, the hubby and I jump on the laptop
and go to our all time favorite Disney information site: All Ears Deb, this site Rocks 
. We go under the resort page and look up Moderate Resorts. Having never really looked into these resorts since they are out of our Disney Budget range 
they were all new to us. We fell in love with Port Orleans Riverside, so that is where we are going to be staying this time around. So this is going to be a different trip from all the rest. We also have our tickets for MNSSHP for the 28th we are hoping it will not be to crowed 
but we will see.
We will be driving from Texas to Tallahassee and staying the night there, then in the morning drive
into Disney.
