WELCOME TO THE TRIP REPORT
Hi and welcome to our trip report. I hope this will be informative, especially for any fellow Australian travellers looking at going to Disney World. Its a long trip so this will take awhile
THE FAMILY
Myself, the Wifey and my Daughter. We are all huge fans of Star Wars and Disney. Basically my wife and I are children stuck in an Adult body. We travelled to Los Angeles in 2015 for our first trip together to see Disneyland. It was amazing but it was too short.
We decided that the next trip would be long. It's a long way from Australia so you do need to make it worth your while. We were planning on returning to Disneyland but thought lets go see how its done in Orlando. It's a hell of a lot longer to get there, but all we were thinking at the time was 4 PARKS! Lets gooooooooo!!!
THE PLAN
So the plan was pretty Simple.
Spend a week in Universal and Stay at Royal Pacific Resort. Then head on over to Pop Century for the remainder of our long stay.
We had worked many hours for this trip, and Christmas break for my daughter was around 7 weeks, so what better time to go.
Accommodation was all paid for before leaving, we did not want any surprise bill at the end. We had purchased Disney World Annual Passes as well, which had saved us a lot of money instead of buying 10 day ticket slots which was adding up way too much.
And as everyone does, when your slot opens for Dinning reservations and fastpasses you get very excited. It was a fair bit of planning for the amount of time we were going for but it was fairly painless to figure out what day to be where etc.
So on with the show.... Day 1 coming soon. Followed by 40+ days of good times and yes a few bad times but all positive vibes to go hang out with the Mouse again.
