Greetings from New Jersey

[BrittSnacks]

Thought I'd introduce myself: I'm Brittany, I'm 25 and I've lurked for way too long! I watch the disunplugged each week and always check out the forums in my spare time.

It was ALWAYS my dream as a kid to visit WDW. I had my very first visit in 2011 with my Mom and sister (also first visit for my sister) and it was amazing. Everything was better than I could have ever imagined. It's that "Disney Magic" that is hard to put into words that made it so special. I did a lot of my own planning for the trip since my Mom hadn't been to the Magic Kingdom since the 70's. It was quite a successful trip and we ended up going with the flow instead of sticking to a strict schedule. One of the best trips of my life and I will never forget seeing the castle for the first time!

Second trip was my Disneymoon with my husband this past February. We went for 8 days, 7 nights - flight got cancelled, bonus day!
I knew a lot more about Disney on this second trip. Researched for almost a full year before we actually went! We had so much time there that it was actually a RELAXING trip! My husband even got picked to attempt pulling the sword from the stone! That was a neat little part of the trip and along with experiencing the Enchanted Tiki Room for the first time and meeting Captain Hook, I think my husband might have the WDW fever too!

One of my favorite parts about Disney is the snacks, the food... hence my username.
Most of my "research" beforehand was food related... Sorry, not sorry!

Anyway, thought I'd give you guys a "hello" and THANK YOU for all of the planning you have helped me with when I was just a lurker. I hope to get a bit more engaged in the discussion.

Outside of Disney, I like: hiking, running, concerts, adventuring, and COFFEE.

Have a great day and remember...
There's a great big beautiful tomorrow!

I'm in north Jersey so not too far away After this winter we can't wait to get back to the world! I grew up going to WDW and even worked there for a while and it's still my favorite place to be I agree that food is a huge part of the experience and love disneyfoodblog and other sites to help plan it all out I love coffee, too and even though it may be blasphemy in NJ to say I hate Dunkin Donuts coffee, I'm super psyched about the Starbucks in MK, EP and soon DTD Also heard the new Joffrey's coffee at the resorts is pretty decent Congratulations on realizing your childhood dream and welcome to the obsession!

Welcome from a fellow New Jerseyan as well! I'm always looking for excuses to plan another trip, I just found out a good friend of mine is managing the new Starbucks that just opened up in DTD! Time to plan!

My husband had Joffrey's several times on our February trip. He was a big fan.
There was something neat about ordering my favorite Starbucks coffee in WDW, because now when I order that drink at home, I think of my trip to Disney. AWESOME.
