First the Intros.
I'm Meg (30 something), I have fallen in love with WDW over and over again, and finally got me an AP this year. I have made multiple trips each year for the past 5 years, but have always wanted to see Walt's Park.
My Mom (no way she'd let me tell you her age!), not as much of a Disney fan as I am, but she's always ready for a vacation. We travel very well together!
My Aunt Terry (mom's sister...again, no ages), we took many trips with her to WDW as kids. Likes Disney, but loves to travel, so she was all in from the get go!
When/Where: October 16-21 @ the Disneyland Hotel! (Thanks Wendy!)
I have always dreamed of seeing the original Magic Kingdom. As much as I love, love WDW, I just had to see the original. We have talked about going for years, but I just never thought it would happen. Until Feb of this year. Mom had some American Airlines gift cards to use up, so she told me to look at prices to Cali. The rate was low, so we booked! Called Terry, she did the same, so it's off to DLR we go!
I was prepared for a stay at one of the Good Neighbors, but Wendy from MJ emailed in August with a deal so we actually get to stay in a Disney hotel! I'm so happy!
The 'Plan': Ok, her is my shocking confession...I'm not a planner. I know many people here love to plan all your days out. I hate that...can't do it. I just can't. So we don't have much of a plan. I know we are going to Santa Monica (I have to see that pier with my own eyes, and I really have to put at least a toe in the Pacific), the San Diego Zoo and we have 3 day Disneyland passes. The only real plan is to avoid the parks over the weekends...other than that we are all really go with the flow.
Now having said that, if anyone has suggestions, I'm more than open. This is the first time in a Disney park in a long time, where I'm going to need a map!
I will have my laptop with me, and I'm planning on doing live reports. All in all, I'm just really excited to get to see the parks.
Thanks for reading!
