It's official (well, almost!)- the Subby family is going on a Walt Disney World Road trip in December 2010!!! We are beyond excited!
Why road trip you ask? Well, why not!? One big reason to do it- air fare is outrageous! Around $300 round trip for each of us!!! And the other big reason- what a great experience for all of us!
I've begun the planning craziness and thought that doing it blog style would be helpful, keeping my toughts and tips organized and also fun for me- now and in the future to look back at!! : )
Hoping for a little Disney pixie dust to help us out in getting 40% off of rooms so that we can stay at the contemporary resort hotel! (crossing fingers and toes and anything else that will bring us luck!)
And than we will also get the Deluxe Dining Plan. I was figuring out how much it would cost us out of pocket and right now it seems to me that it's cheaper to do the DP rather than OP. Plus, we want to go on a vacation- I don't want to have to be worried that we are going over our Disney budget!! I do that every day at home.
I want to go and actually have things taken care of and just have fun! So we figure- we'd either spend the same amount as the DP or more than it and take advantage of staying at a Deluxe hotel for almost half the price! Some day we will probably have to either get two rooms or get a cabin/villa. And one more year and Janelle will be considered an Adult- Disney price wise!!
We are going during the MOST magical time of the year in Disney! Christmas time! I've ALWAY always wanted to go during this time and couldn't be more excited!!
Oh, the memories we are going to make!! Can NOT wait!!!
As for the road trip part- this is the plan for now.
Leave MN Sat. early early early morning December 11th, 2010
And drive through WI, IL, KT and than stop in Nashville, TN for the night.
And the next day drive all the way through to Walt Disney World!!
Check into the hotel Sun. December 12th, 2010 and stay until Friday December 17th, 2010.
On our check out day head up to Panama City Beach/Destin area to visit with Aunt Linda and Uncle John and see the ocean/beach and stay for a night of two!!
And after this............ not sure the exact plan. Except that we have to start heading home! Christmas will be right around the corner!
Now off to some important (and fun!) planning!
Only about 193 days left!
hmmm............... I should find me a cute little ticker to do this job. Off to find that now!! : )
