I have been lurking for a while now and thought I would post a little about me. I am planning my first trip to Disney in Sept 2008. It will be me, mom, dd15 and dd7. None of us have ever been. Dh went about 20 years ago and has no desire to go back. Oh well his loss. I love to plan my trips and want to know every fun detail I can about where I am going. I have learned so much from this board.

We will be staying at Pop and I am hoping for the 50's lakeside. Is that preferred? I don't want to pay extra for preferred but would like the 50s or 60 buildings.

Dd will be 7 when we go. I know there will be extreme amounts of walking and would like to walk at my pace and not hers so where I can I find a good stroller to purchase for a child her size? I would like to bring one from home so I can have it all the time instead of just in the parks.

Thanks for all the valuable information each of you provide to us newbies each day.
 
Welcome to the DIS. I know you will have a wonderful trip. Any/all questions you have will be answered here. :thumbsup2
 

Hey, another Alabamian! Welcome, and hope you enjoy your trip planning.... this is a great board, and you'll have a blast here!
 
Hello from another Alabamian! Have fun and be sure to plan, plan, plan. Ask any questions. You will love these boards.
 
:welcome: from another Alabamian! We are also going to be staying at POP in September :goodvibes This is a great place to find information about planning your trip. Have fun planning!

Hello and Welcome to the Dis -- it is very addicting!!!

I am also a former Alabamian. I lived in Florence for 30 years before moving to Atlanta 5 years ago!
 
Hello and :welcome: from yet another Alabamian. I am in East Central Alabama on the Georgia line. :disrocks: and you wil find that you fit in sooner than you think. Plan, plan, and plan some more, is all I have to say. I don't think you can over plan for a disney trip, especially your first one. Your DH doens't know what he is missing. My DH is the first person that I went with, well my mom and then 7 year old cousin went with us and that was in 2005. I am working on my 6th trip since June 2005 and I plan fanitically each time.

Hey tadamom, my dh lived in Sheffield for 25 years before I dragged him further south to Mobile.

Hi, I'm a UNA graduate!! And hello to all you other Bama peeps! Nice to meet folks from home. I live in Tulsa now, but I still head south at every opportunity. Welcome OP!
 
:welcome: Alabamians, from a former, and hopefully to be again, Alabamian! I am originally from Mobile, my DH from Huntsville but have been Floridians for 7 1/2 years but are hoping to move back to Mobile soon!

These boards are terrific in so many ways and I find that I HAVE to visit at least once a day!!
