Or...MrsDanielle and specialk2ca go on a honeymoon.
We went Jan 10-17 and stayed at Port Orleans Riverside. To introduce ourselves, we're from Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada and we're both in our mid-20s. AND it's the first time for both of us at WDW.
We're going to do a more full trip report later but to start it off we're playing word association. Maybe it'll spark some interest
