~A Very Merry Happy Trip~
Hello All!
Welcome to my first ever trip report! My name is Whitney. I am your average Disney addict. I have been obsessed since I was 5 when I took my first trip. I did do a Pre-Trip report if you would like to find out a little more of how this trip came about the link is in my signature.
Lets just go ahead and jump right in!
Mandatory Introductions...
Me:Whitney
Favorite Meal of the trip: Hands down BOG dinner
Favorite Ride of the trip: Everest or new Soarin'
Favorite Character of the trip: Fairy Godmother or Joy and Sadness
Chelsy: she is my cousin and fellow Disney travel partner
This is her 8th trip in a row. She loves Rockin Roller Coaster. Her favorite meal of the trip was Liberty Tree Tavern.
Miranda: she is Chelsy's sister (yes no relation to me) and my co-worker at the hospital.
She has been to Disney once when she was smaller and barely remembers so a lot of new experiences for her!
Her favorite park was Hollywood Studios with her favorite ride being Tower of Terror.
Ok ok now to the trip!!!
We were scheduled to leave late Sunday night on the 13th of November. I slept on and off on Sunday and we were just waiting on Chelsy to get off of work to head out. We have a 10 hour drive from North Alabama.
This is a picture of the decal I made for my car. (I am a huge Tangled fan and I always feel like I have to Disney-fy my car when we go. I also had my sorcerer Mickey antenna topper although it wasn't pictured.)
Anyways..Chelsy met me at my mom's house. We loaded up the car and headed to pick up Miranda. We got to Miranda's house and stuffed the car some more and were on our way.
We topped the car off with gas prior to getting on the interstate at 10:15pm our time. The drive was pretty uneventful. Miranda slept most of the way. Chelsy helped me navigate and only dozed a few times. When I did get kind of sleepy I called work and talked to my fellow nightshifters for a little bit. We only stopped 3 times in the whole 10 hours.
This was about 150 miles away.. Miranda was still snoozing. I mean how can she not be excited?!?!?!
This would eventually cause me some problems later on in the trip. Anyways by 9:00am we were driving through these magical gates
We had a few request on our reservation prior to check in. Knowing that they are not always granted we wanted to go to the front desk as soon as we arrived so we could have a chance of getting what we requested. We had a room only reservation for Monday night and hoped to stay in the same room when we checked in for our free dining package. The lady at the check in desk seemed really enthusiastic. She checked us in without problem but to be able to get the same room for the duration we would have to wait. We were completely ok with that because in the long run it was better to have the same room than close our exhausted eyes at the time.
We set off for the Disney outlet on Vineland. Shopped around for awhile and ate a quick lunch. Just as soon as we got in the car to head back on property we got the text our room was ready!
Being fairly new to the Dis-ing, I did not take any pictures. It is just your standard All-Star Music room. We were in the Broadway Section, room 8437. It was ground level and an easy walk to the parking lot which we had hoped for! Also the noise level was low! Finally a nap!
