Have I told you yet how much I love Disney World?
I mean, the fact that I have a Blog called “never2old4disney” should be some what of a clue, but I don’t think that I have come outright and said it. So, get ready, here it comes:
I am totally, completely, entirely, absolutely, wholly, fully, utterly crazy about Disney World.
Constantly reading up on every site/ DISBoard/ Blog Disney World related and searching and watching Disney World Tour Vlogs, I just cannot get enough. To my husband’s dismay, you could even say that I am addicted to Adam Hattan‘s, The Tim Tracker & Charlotte Ruff‘s Disney World Vlogs.
The ever so sad reality is that I live possibly in the furthest possible place – Australia. So, accessibility is limited.
Saying that, and thanks to my amazing parents, I did get to experience Disney World twice growing up. That is when I fell in love with Disney World. That love I passed on to my beloved three daughters, and hopefully, if only partially, to my beloved husband.
So, in spite of the distance I try to get to Orlando every few years to get my Disney fix.
Now, I know that Disneyland is closer, but I pledge my loyalty to Disney World. The four parks, Animal Kingdom & Pandora, Magic Kingdom, Epcot – they are my fave.
I won’t deny it, I do love Orlando too. For me it’s a family holiday dream destination. Theme Parks, Water Parks, Kennedy Space Centre, International Drive with entertainment & food, plenty options for shopping lovers and more. Every time we visit we find something more to do.
Pledging my love and loyalty I have a very important announcement to make:
195 Days to go !!!!!!! Yeah !!!!!!
How are we going with our planning?
With the countdown showing 195 days to go, we just booked our flights to Orlando (over 25hr flights both ways, OMG).
We have our Art of Animation Magic Your Way Package booked. 7 nights stay & 9 days tickets. I chose not to get the Hopper this visit, it saves us money. So, I just planned our days around that.
We also booked 4 nights at the Polynesian, room only. I have always wanted to stay at the Polynesian. And staying here this time will allow us to do Ohana for breakfast and dinner (my girls just adore everything Lilo & Stitch).
Our Universal Studios package is also booked – 7 nights Hard Rock Hotel club level with theme park tickets. This also includes Unlimited Express passes.
What’s left to do?
Well, we need to book our Sea World stay & tickets. We were thinking of doing Busch Gardens & Kennedy Space Centre too. We are also contemplating whether to rent a car, at least for our week off Disney and Universal sites – not yet decided.
Only several days to go to our ADR bookings – got to get that done…
This is a pretty special trip for us this time. We are celebrating so much – our little ones 12th birthday, our middle ones 18th, my 50th coming up and our 25th wedding anniversary. So, we do want to do some new and special experiences. We’re hoping to book Wanyama Safari & a couple of dessert parties too.
I just can’t wait…
I love Disney World oh so much.
