    Default We've moved to Disney World!

    Technically we've moved to Davenport, but from my front door to the Western Way Disney entrance, it's a 20min drive! This has been in the works since January, but I did't want to say anything until we were actually here. Honestly, it's been surreal. I never dreamed I'd be this close to the Magic. Previously, we lived 2 hours north. That seemed perfect. I was far enough away to truly appreciate the drive and staying onsite. I do have a fear that I'll lose some of the pixie dust along the way. I hope not.

    If you ever miss the Pixie dust from the hotels just make a dinner reservation there. If you ever miss staying at the Disney hotels just go over to the bus lines at closing. One look and you will remember why driving your own car and staying in your own house is better.

    Congratulations.

    So jealous... 20 minutes is probably just about the right amount of distance between you and WDW. Enjoy!

    We are neighbors. I'm also in Davenport, in the four corners area. South of 192 just off the 27. I always take the back way coming in on Western Way.

    It's still very surreal. Occasionally my husband or I would hear thunder at night before going to bed. This time of year that's not unusual. However, the other night it occurred to me it may actually be fireworks. I glanced out my bedroom window, which is on the second floor, and low and behold -- Hollywood Studio fireworks could be seen in the distance! I can't begin to explain how stinking cool that was.

    My kids attend a youth group with a church that holds meetings at Celebration Highschool. Usually I take them and my husband picks them up. The other night I needed to pick them up and again I got a fireworks show on the way. I suppose all those living here get used to it after a while. I kind of hope I never do.
