Hi my names Wesley and... I'm a Disneyholic. My family and I have been going about once a year for about 4 years now, but we decided that once isn't enough. WE MUST HAVE MORE! So having already planned a trip for June we decided to plan a quick trip for March. Not only did we plan a trip, we broke down and bought annual passes....oh the temptation. The idea behind the annual passes is that we'll be saving money in the long run with the 3 trips we have planned this year. Although the urge to sneak down to Florida for the weekend is almost unbearable. Its been three days since we got back and somehow we've managed. Anyway so last week (3/10) We departed from our house and started our long 14 hour drive. Since we're so hardcore staying at a hotel to split up the trip is not out style. So we drove overnight. We made a makeshift bed in the back which consisted of a comforter folded over and a very small travel pillow.
Yeah thats me in the back getting my 30 minute nap.
Around 11 PM it was Mom's turn to sleep so she headed to the trunk bed and I moved up to the front. Shortly after Mom had returned to the back seat with a very... concerned look about her. She wouldn't answer us and then we figured it out. She had to hurl. Much of the events after that were a blur. Dad was weaving in and out of traffic. I was using every electonic device we owned to find out where the next stop or patch of asphault was. We finally found a Kangaroo (?) gas station. As soon as the door was open she disposed of all of that days and maybe some of yesterdays meals. Ewwwwwww. She was quite chipper after that though. After that small diversion we got back to our long journey. Thoughts of soon being at the happiest place on earth made it all worth it. We stopped at a Cracker Barrel for breakfast. I only had oatmeal which looked absolutely terrifying but i managed to eat most of it. So many scary truckstop bathrooms and a half an hour of sleep later we reache the glorious main gates of Disney! Everyones eyes glimmered (as much as they could being as tired as we were. Now to navigate the streets of the World. We were staying at the Pop Century for the second time so we figured it wouldn't be that hard to find. Yeah, we were wrong. Somehow we had managed to end up at the gates to Epcot. We rolled up to the lady who took parking and she set us straight....sort of. We ended up their again. The second time we just gave the lady a look and she knew our humiliation so we went by without saying anything to her. Another 10 minutes and we finally made it to our resort. Oh how I had missed the kitchy charm of Pop. We had checked in and luckily they had our room all ready for us. Not only that but it was very convieniantly located in the 50's right by the busses. So we quickly threw all our crap and the room and left for Epcot.
