to my first trip report!
To start off, I haven’t been in over 2 years. I have been having serious withdrawals. I feel bad for my boyfriend because I seriously talk about nothing but Disney. My family and I have been going every year since I was in 7th grade. In my signature I have all of our trips listed. You could say I’m very obsessed with Disney. I’m writing this while I’m taking a break from studying for Midterms… (Also am listening to Disney music)
We (my parents) are also DVC members. We (they) own at Animal Kingdom and BoardWalk.
We like snacks. We would rather eat snacks all day than eat lunch. However, dinner is also important.
I guess I should give you a quick overview of our upcoming trip!
Who?
These are pictures from our cruise in December 2012
Me, Adam, and Emily
Me, Deanna, 20 years old (but I've been told I am really still 5 ). College sophomore, Hotel Restaurant Tourism Management Major. Favorites: Ride: Toy Story Mania, Snack: Turkey Leg, Character: Dumbo, Park: Magic Kingdom, Restaurant: ‘Ohanas, Resort: Beach Club.
Brother, Adam. He is the baby and we all love him and are going to miss him a lot! He’s staying at our grandparent’s house for the week, he also has school. 13 years old, 8th grade, but he will not be joining us on this trip. Favorites: Ride: Dinosaur, Snack: Churros, Character: Woody, Resort: Beach Club.
Sister, Emily. Not as obsessed as Mom and me, but she’s still obsessed. We’re both going to have a difficult time studying for Midterms while dreaming of Disney… 18 years old College Freshman, Management Major. Favorites: Ride: Splash Mountain, Food: ‘Ohana’s dumplings, Character: Stitch and Donald Duck, Park: Magic Kingdom. And I quote “And the new FantasyLand! I’m so excited. I also love being able to walk to EPCOT, and I think BoardWalk will be my favorite resort. Although I’ve always like the Contemporary.”
The parents
Mom. The person who came up with the idea of us getting DVC, now we have a good excuse to go every year! She is the pin trader of our family. She also got me into the Dis and is the one who is encouraging me to do this trip report. Favorites: Ride: Winnie the Pooh, Snack: Coffee float (MK), Character: Tinkerbell, Resort: Bay Lake Tower.
Dad. He’s happy if everyone’s happy. He can make Mickey and Goofy voices! He’s also the only guy going on this trip, so he’s going to have to deal with our giggles and squeals. Favorites: Park: Animal Kingdom, Character: Tigger and Goofy, Snack: Coffee float, Restaurant: ‘Ohanas, Resort: Wilderness Lodge.
Fifi and Papa (Mom's parents) They will not be joining us on this trip, but they will be going with us in December.
Group picture from our November 2009 trip with Grama (Dad's Mom). That was the first time she’d been to Disney!
Why?
Our parents and Adam went to Disney with one of Adam’s friend’s family. It was their first time going to Disney. So because of that trip, our parents were not planning on doing this trip at all, but Emily and I kind of begged and well…we got what we wanted. We are all very sad that Adam isn't going with us. We are also going this December while all of us are out of school so we can go together.
Here's some proof that they were actually there in November 2013
When? Where?
March 15-21, 2014. During the college Spring Break. We are staying at BoardWalk Villas. Yes, spring break. We are scared of the crowds and hope it won’t be too bad. But we are prepared for the long waits. We are also from colder weather, so right now we honestly just want some sun.
What?
Usually we use the dining plan, but this trip we’re going to try the Tables in Wonderland. We never eat everything that we are required to under that plan. Emily and Mom are planning on sharing most of their meals. Also this way we can eat more snacks.
This is our original day-by-day plan and we’re probably going to stick to it.
Saturday:
Plane takes off around 6PM and we’ll be in Orlando around 9PM.
Check into BoardWalk Villas.
Sunday:
Magic Kingdom. FastPasses for Space Mountain, Big Thunder Mountain Railroad, and Peter Pan’s Flight.
Dinner at Be Our Guest Restaurant.
Monday:
EPCOT. FastPasses for Test Track, Soarin’, and Living with the Land.
Dinner at Tutto Italia Ristorante.
Tuesday:
Animal Kingdom. FastPasses for Dinosaur, Everest, and Kilimanjaro Safaris.
Dinner at ‘Ohana.
Wednesday:
DHS (We still call it MGM…) FastPasses for Toy Story Midway Mania, Tower of Terror, and Star Tours.
Dinner at Chefs de France (subject to change).
Thursday:
MK. FastPasses at Winnie the Pooh, Haunted Mansion, and Pirates of the Caribbean.
Lunch at Liberty Tree Tavern.
Friday:
Check-Out
I’m already dreading this day.
I have to tell you right now that all of us are OBSESSED with Disney food. Also we all require coffee to survive. So a warning, most of my pictures will probably be food related. SNACKS. Also I am going to be taking pictures with my iPhone, my regular camera is waaay outdated. Another warning, I can be random and can ramble. I’ll try to keep it to a minimum
I hope you enjoy our trip as much as I can bet we will! Without further ado, sit back (or lean hunched forward as I do on my computer ) and relax and enjoy my report! Have a magical day!
