Hi everyone. This is my first try at a pre-trip report. I guess I should start with the cast...
Me: Anna The Trip planner 39 years old. I live in Colorado. I work at a Hardware and Lumber Yard. I am the Purchaser and Inventory Manager. I am not married and I don't have any children. Since I don't have my owen children I barrow my BFF's grandchildren.
They love me because I spoil them rotten then I send them home to their mother.
BFFGS- Bryan my best friends grandson. He is 12. On our way to WDW for the first trip Bryan had said that after this trip he would not want to go back to WDW. I gasped.
I told him well see about that. We were at the MK with in the first hour of being in WDW. We first went to the Tiki Room, Then to Pirates, then Big Thunder Mountain. We road BTM three times in a row. On our third ride he told me that he changed him mind and he wanted to come back.
That is when I started to plan out our next trip. We had the best time that week.
It is just the two of us on this trip. On our last trip his sister and his grandma ( my BFF) went also. Oh this will be our second time to WDW. I am sure you guy's figured that out.
A little info on me. I grew up in Southern California. We went to Disneyland two times a year. I don't think I knew what Disney World was till I was 17. I never thought about going to WDW because I thought it was Disneyland but in Florida.
In 2001 I came to Orlando for a week and did not step foot on Disney property. We had just been at Disneyland ( my boyfriend at the time and I). At that time my uncle was an imagineer at Disneyland & California Adventure so we were able to go when ever we wanted to go for free. It wasn't till 2006 when I watched Samantha Brown's one hour special of WDW at Christmas time that I realized what WDW was all about. It was very different from Disneyland! That was it I had to go.
Because of the show we booked the Grand Floridian for five night's
and stayed at All Star Movie for one night. I have been hooked since. As soon as we got home I booked this trip for just Bryan and I.
This trip we will be in Orlando for 10 days and 9 nights.
1st day Gaylord Palms.
I had to add this because Frontier Airline's canceled our first flight. I tried to book 1 more night at Wilderness Lodge but I was told because of the free dinning they could not add it to our package.
The rest of the trip is at the Wilderness Lodge. I booked the Courtyard View.
Our package is a 9 day park hopper with water park, plus Dinning. When I heard about free dinning I called and had the package changed. I saved $591.84. That is awesome.
Here are a couple of pictures from our December trip.
This is Bryan and I at the MK for MVMCP.
This Sarah Bryan's sister.
The castle when we were at MVMCP.
Fire works at MVMCP. I loved the Mickey wreath.
Grand Floridian very early in the morning.
Papa Noel in the Canadian Pavilion.
Pair Noel in the French Pavilion.
Well, This is all I have time for today. Next up ADR's And the plan for the week.
Thanks for taking the time to read this.
