Is it possible to like any place better than WDW? I know there are those of you who would say, NO, Id never want to vacation anywhere else. Then there are those of you who would say, YES, I love to experience new places and I can only go to WDW so many times.
(okay maybe they are not around here
). I think many of us fall into a third category There are other places, but not as good as WDW.
My family had the pleasure of going to WDW in October 2012 and then we took a trip SOMEWHERE ELSE in March 2013! I know crazy, right? Well, we are DVC members and we decided to try Disneys Hilton Head Island Resort! So its still Disney, but somewhere else!
This is the story of two trips Our first time going to WDW in October for Food and Wine and Mickeys Not So Scary Halloween Party and our first time going to Hilton Head South Carolina! Did we really like somewhere else better than WDW? Stick around and find out!
Many of you know us from previous TRs, but heres a quick introduction:
[/URL]

Me Sheree self-proclaimed Disney lover and travel buff. Lowly government attorney is my day job, and selling Pampered Chef kitchen products is my part time job. My other part time job is to drive my daughters back and forth wherever they need to be!
DH Dave also a Disney lover (he got me hooked!) and all-around great husband and dad! Hes a mailman by day and a merchandise seller at evening concerts. He also has the same part time chauffer job!
DD12 Sarah turned 12 the day we left for Hilton Head in March, so she was still 11 ½ in October. Smart as anyone, very active in 6th grade student council, yearbook, project citizen, and a dancer too! Favorite Disney character: Eeyore and Sully & Mike
DD10 Paige didnt turn 10 until after HHI. So she was still a Disney child on our trips. Also a smarty pants math whiz!, she is involved in competitive dance. Favorite Disney characters: Belle and Marie
So, since it took me 6 months to get started on this TR, I decided to combine the two trips and sort of hit the highlights. Of course, there were LOTS of highlights, so it really wont be that short! We did a lot of "new" things on both our trips!
I hope you will join me and jump in with comments and questions at any time!!
