Hello all! I'm a semi long time lurker and recent-ish member to the DISboards. I went to Disney World for the first time in August of 2014 and had a blast! It was my first visit, but my family likes to claim that I was there before, since they went there when my mom was about 6 months pregnant with me. It doesn't count but they like to argue that it does.
This will be a pretty short report, since this trip happened 6 months ago and my memory is a bit fuzzy...
Anywho, I am a long time lover of all things Disney and had been wanting to go to WDW for years. In 2013 my family considered going but it was just too expensive and we ended up going to Universal instead (which is awesome, I love it).
For this trip, I went with my best friend/college roommate, Meghan. We have known each other since 1st grade and her family is like a second family to me. Now, Meghan had been on several trips to WDW as a child but hadn't been in 8 or 9 years. This trip was originally supposed to be just at Universal (Diagon Alley!!!) since we couldn't afford both that and Disney, but our parents were kind enough to help and it turned into a split Universal/WDW trip.
We started talking about going in Jan/Feb of 2014. It would be an early graduation trip to ourselves (we both graduated from Mizzou this past December, yay!). We booked our hotel for Universal in April and then a couple months later added the 2 extra days at WDW and booked a night at All Star Sports. So it became a 3 day Universal, 2 day Disney trip. I was so excited!!!
I'll end this post with a picture of the both of us, I need to go to class!
I'm the one in the Snoopy shirt, Meghan is obviously the other one. I loved meeting Baloo and King Louie! They were so fun!
