We are driving to WDW for the first time in Feb. We leave from the northwest burbs of Chicago and have sketched out a plan and would like some feedback. We have a 2 1/2 yo DD and have purchased a DVD player for her so that should keep her happy. The plan is such:
Thursday afternoon: Have the van packed and ready to go for DH's return from 1/2 day of work. Leave by 2 pm. Drive as far as the border of Tenn. to stop for the night. We will take a break or two along the way.
Fri: Up as early as I can roust them from bed
to drive thru Tenn and Georgia to the FL border. I woul dlike to be able to stop early enough to let DD play/maybe go for a swim after having been in the van for so long.
Sat: Up and at 'em (don't think I will have trouble getting them up this close to WDW!) to be at the VIllas of WL around lunch time.
Well, what do you think oh wise ones of the DIS? Any recommendations in terms of route? TIA for any and all advice!
