Welcome everyone to the trip report that honestly had its surprises along the way...and it was fun for the whole family!
First Ill start with the introductions of who was on this trip with us from June 12-June 19th. Yes this is our longest trip to Disney World that we have done and honestly we would do it again over and over next year if we can! This trip was more magical in more ways than one could have ever imagined it would be!!!
OK enough babbling and onto the introductions:
Charlotte (Me): Im the queen mastermind for planning the trips from when we will go, where we will eat, and what day we will be in what park. I am notorious for stalking the boards to see what restaurants we will eat at and if there is anything new that we need to try. I am also into finding us a good deal on the package deals and to see how much money we could really save for each trip. I love all things Disney and have loved Disney ever since going back in 1996 with my family and then two years later with the Band. Then in 2010 I did a mother and daughter trip in May and that started the obsession of going to Disney World every year at least once a year!!! My favorite movies are The Little Mermaid, Pollyanna, Toby Tyler and Finding Nemo! Im also crazy obsessed with having Disney songs on my iPhone just to listen to when were in the car at all times! Plus it doesnt help that I went to Disney for my Disneymoon!
Jason (Daddy J or Hubby): Jason got into my crazy obsession of Disney World right after we first started to date in March 2011. We took our first trip together in July 2011 where he fell in love with DW. Then in April 2012 he proposed to me at CRT and we took our Disneymoon in August 2012. We are trying to convert his sister into a WDW lover too which I will be helping plan her trip for next year hopefully! Jason loves all of the Pirates of the Caribbean movies and is looking forward to seeing The Lone Ranger this summer!
Carol (aka: Nanie or Mom): Carol is my mom who joined us on this trip to DW. Olivia had no idea that she was going to join us. I had planned out the Disney Vacation with my mom and Jason at the end of last year to beginning part of this year. We at first had to figure out when moms last day was at school and then the masterminds came together and figured it out! Mom has been to Disney World several times because when I was a baby, her parents lived in Clearwater Beach, FL so trips to DW were planned. Then in 1996 we took a family trip down to DW with some good friends and then she and my dad went to DW in either 2001 or 2002. That was the last time she had been there. Needless to say she wants to go back again!!!
Olivia: Olivia is my 9 year old from a previous marriage and yet she would rather take trips to WDW with me and Daddy J! I have spoiled her ever since taking her in May 2010 and she begs to go there every year. She is on the petite side and at 9 years old and just barely hitting the 48 mark to ride the bigger rides, this year was more fun now that she can ride all the big rides! Sweet!!! Olivia is crazy obsession with stuffed animals and trust me every time we head to WDW we have to come home with at least 3 of them. But it adds to her collection she has at home.
We booked 4 nights at Coronado Springs Resort and 2 nights at Animal Kingdom Lodge Kidani Village.
Up Next Were going to the beach!!!
