I have a Serious Affliction ....Disneyitis!

[chrisn]

Unfortunately, I caught it during my first WDW visit in 2000. Since then, we've taken four 2 week vacations to WDW/Universal and two Disney Cruises, you get the picture. DH is a little fed up with Mickey Mouse and says next time we go to Disney, he wants to go to DL/CA instead. I'm a California girl. Grew up there. Left my heart at Disneyland. I haven't been in to DL in 11 years. I do want to go back and had started to plan for same time next year until my dad calls and says he going down to the condo (Lake Buena Vista) and just like Tink, my plans flew away on the wind. Since I was also planning on 5 nights at Beaches Turks & Caicos, doesn't it make much more sense to fly there from Orlando then LA? This was my reasoning with DH the other night. He thinks about it and says yeah, your right. So now I'm like Aaaaaaaaahhhhhhh! We just got back from 9 days at WDW and a 4 Night Disney Cruise and I'm already experiencing withdrawals! I'm sick! I'm a sick girl I tell you. Is there any hope for a cure? Anyone else suffer?

Hi!

You are not alone

I have been bit by the Disney Bug as well ...and the only cure is to plan your next trip to Disney!

Our first trip was in 2001 and since then I have been back to WDW 4 times and on 2 Disney cruises!!!

I have our first 7 day on the MAGIC booked for October and have managed to add two days at WDW before we sail! What can I say??? My family and friends think I am crazy!! I tell them that they just don't understand!! DD and I have fun!!

Then I am planning a big 7 night trip to take my Neice and Nephew next May 2006!!! Will it ever end????? NOT!

Count me in with that.

I, too, am from CA and left my heart at DL. Finally got to back last year and what started out as a 1 day trip turned into a two day trip. Thankfully we were staying with relatives there and only had to pay for the hotel while we were at DL.

Didn't let on to said relatives that we had also taken a WDW trip earlier in the year and still haven't told them about trip we did in Oct. Did tell them about the trip we are getting ready to take. If they only knew how often we have been since 01. DH said his mother would flip. DH caught the bug after his first trip in 97.

My family can't understand the reasoning behind going so often. They just don't get it. If we were all in CA, they would have a different view, but now that we are all over (except parents & younger brother - still in CA) they just don't understand that it just gets into your blood and you can't get rid of it (not that I want too!).

Our trip in June will be 3 trips in 3 years. I'd love to do more, but that'd be financially irresponsible for us. I want us to be able to do at least two weeklong trips a year in the future.

So we have the "Disney bug" also!

We just left WDW on Friday afternoon and the bug hit us as we drove pass the gate that says "See you real soon"! I felt my heart sink and the withdrawal symptom started!!! There is no hope for us, we have already booked our next trip in December, so we don't even have the planning the next trip to help remedy!! We just have to sit and count the days!! Our family has the bug also, both our adult children want to go with us!! It's even spreading to the grandchildren!!
Are friends don't understand, they say we should be "TIRED" or "WHAT DO YOU THERE" spending so much time at WDW!!! I try to explain to them how happy we feel being there, but they just don't get it!!! I guess it's totally hopeless for us, but we are glad to see that it's contagious and we are not alone!!!
