HI ALLWelcome to my FIRST EVER Pre Trip Report!!!!
So, hello again! My name is Tara and I have been on the Dis for...well I honestly don't know how long off of the top of my head...and I don't post a lot. I will admit that I am mostly a lurkey becuase I don't know when my life allows for me to spend a lot of time on here and when it doesn't.
I decided to do this PTR finally because I'm sitting around my house bored on this fine Sunday afternoon.But don't think that I'll post today just because Im bored and then give up on it! I swear I have reached a point in my life now where I don't have a lot going on for awhile so I will have time for it!
I guess I should talk about the actually trip and all that now (WARNING: I like to write A LOT! I am someone who has a lot to say so if you don't like to read a lot of details and stuff this is not the PTR for you!)
Well, the trip came to be this past December when I was in WDW with my family for our annual vacation. This past December we went down for a week just because that's what we have done every year since I was 3! We stayed at SSR in a Grand Villas and it was an AMAZING trip! Honestly, one of the best trips I have ever had! It was so nice for so many reasons! For starters, the weather could not have been better, it was sunny and hot everyday. Also, more than just my immediate family got to go down which was very nice. Also, honestly it was the first trip we had without any major drama. Like nobody got into any fights, we all got along and just went along with the flow with each other. It was just a really relaxing trip overall.
So, the end of that wonderful trip was coming near when I started to realize that it could be my last trip to WDW for awhile. I'm a senior in high school right now and I'll be going off to college in the fall. Me going off to college means that most likely the once a year WDW trips will stop because of money reasons and becuase my schedule will be more hectic (even though Im hoping my parents don't think this and the trips continue!). Of course I am still hoping that the trips continue or that Ill be able to go for spring break, but still the guarentee of going to WDW that has been there since I was little, won't be there as much anymore.
As the end of the trip was also reaching the end I also started thinking about how I have never really been to WDW with anyone close to my own age. I have been with my parents, and my aunts and unlces, and my cousins, all of who are either 7+ years older than me or 10+ years younger than me! I started to realize this trip that I really would enjoy WDW with my friends there!
So on our second to last night of our trip I decided to kinda jokingly pose a question to my parents. I wanted to ask if instead of a graduation party I could bring my 3 closest friends on a trip to WDW with us in June. Now, I really did want it to happen but since I figured my parents would say no I was almost being sarcastic when I asked them. They actually really liked the idea though! Both agreed that it would probably be cheaper than a graduation party and would be more enjoyable. My moms figured that if we had a party we would not be able to enjoy it becuase we would be too busy making sure everyone else was enjoying! Simply, we are not party people...we are disney people. So, my parents had said yes to my joke of an idea, but they said that we would have to wait until we got home to talk about it in detail. Well, that was fine by me!
I think I'm going to end that first post there since I have said a lot! I hope I'll have some readers and I hope some people will enjoy it!
