My Family thinks I am Crazy

[Christine9125]

When we got home last summer from POP, we had not had a very good time, so my husband told me I could plan a trip for my 40th birthday, which is also our 10th Anniversary and Disney Worlds 40th Birthday in 2011. He told me we could stay where ever I wanted to stay. So of course, I set up my Disney savings account and started figuring out where I wanted to stay. I kept looking at the Contemporay or Wilderness Lodge, but my heart was set on POP. If we stayed at POP, we could fly down and stay for 7 nights instead of 6 due to driving. It quickly became a bigger trip, my brother inlaw and "hopefully" my future sister decided they wanted to join us also, he will be his 40th birthday too. BIG Celebrations! Well, I can not wait to go back, so I booked a trip for my husband and I to stay at the Fort next Januray for 6 nights. Now I have been thinking about our big trip in 2011. We had talked about going over Thanksgiving 2011, but I wasn't sure about this. Now I have had a light bulb come on. If we go for Thanksgiving 2011 and stay at the Fort, I could also go in January 2011 and still be under what we were going to pay for our big trip. My family thinks I am crazy for wanting to go so much, but I am really excited about staying at the Fort Next January and now if I can talk them into it I can have 2 more trips. Do you think I am crazy?

And yes, out friends think we are crazy too.

[PolynesianPixie]

Seems perfectly reasonable to me!

And........wait......


Oh, yes! The otters agree!

 

[Christine9125]

Thank you all so much, now I just have to talk my husband in to it or I will be going by myself

 

[Gatordad]

Your husband sounds like a reasonable man. Leave him in Tampa with me, I'm normal.

 

[4mickey2]

you won't be alone.. we'll all be there with you.

go when you can and as often as you can.

people at my work are always "where are you going? florida, again?" they just don't understand. it just isn't about being at an inclusive resort. or staying in a resort that is fenced off from the other areas of mexico..

this is DISNEY!

we leave in 4 more days and can't wait for the warm weather. things were looking good here for a while then yesterday we got snow again.

only a couple inches... but, man, i don't want anymore winter weather...

explain to them how much money you will save buying an annual pass and your ticket expense is alot less since you won't need passes for any of the extra trips; make sure you time the trips within 12 mos.!

if you're crazy, where does that leave me. I go 4 times a year usually!

 

[ntsammy5]

I'm normal.

 

[Gatordad]

more normal than most of you folks. I don't dump tons of money at disney.

 

[Just Beachy]

Christine, I would say you have the same mentality as the rest of us, except Gatordad.

Pete, why don't you offer her dh to hang at the Fort with you, drinking beer and making fun of the other disney lovers while the rest of them go to the parks. By the way, does that offer still stand to MY dh?

He would probably do that lol
