I tried but I just couldn't do it!


I convinced myself that I could take a trip to Orlando with DH, DS16 and DS8 and not do Disney. It could be done. People do it all the time. I'm not obsessed. I have already booked 7 nights at HRH at US. Booked the Queen Deluxe..more money but staying the week. I even won 2 free 7day passes during the Superbowl. I fiqured with the money we saved we could go to Seaworld and then next summer we would just do Disney.

But then it started.
US/IOA closes at 6pm each night.
2 Adult/1 Child -5 day hoppers from 2003- sitting in a drawer
My DM and DF call me from EPCOT today to ask for my email so they can send a video clip from Spaceship Earth
Chance of free dining
$630 Disney dollars saved.

So I mentioned to DH How about 5 nights Disney and 4 nights HRH?...He didn't protest(mind you he is not feeling well).

Now all I need is the FREE Dining Gods to come together!

I hear ya! A couple of years ago my DH talked about taking the kids to US & IoA and back to SeaWorld. After I added everything up, I told him that I wouldn't do it, lets do Disney instead, so we did.

My DD went to Orlando last summer with a friend and went to DTD & Typhoon Lagoon, but not to the parks. The girls mom was there on business. Anyway, she said that it was horrible being so close to the Magic, but not doing anything. I felt sorry for her.

I think that you are doing the right thing. I hope your DH feels better soon too.

Thanks WDWMOM.

I am soo excited to start planning. US is great but no planning involved. Over the next month I now have ADRs to make. I wouldn't mind cutting back and staying at the CBR but we have stayed at WL twice before and I know the kids as well as DH would rather stay there. Small sacrafice
