Having been to so many stores lately that have Christmas decorations up (yeah, I'm talking about you Michael's, Hobby Lobby, Dollar Tree, and Wal-Mart), it's rather refreshing to know that Disney at this point in time just put up some Halloween decorations. I can't wait to take pictures of all the cool pumpkins next week!
A bit of a background about the Disney Dining Plan:
A.) It's free for us.
B.) We get 1 table service meal, 1 counter service meal, and 1 snack per night of our stay. For us this means we get 8 of each.
So, if you see something about table service (TS), counter service (CS), or snack (S), this is my way of keeping track of our credits.
Table Service= Waiter/waitress served meal
Counter Service=Fast food
Snack= Anything under $4.00
Sadly I wish this post was about Hannah Montana since she is a Disney character. Character is probably an understatement. Hannah Montana is Disney.
But this post is about Tropical Storm Hanna (see, no "h"?) which is brewing in the Atlantic near where Gustav just left. I am worried that my dream vacation will be drowned out by Hanna and Gustav.
Go away!! Far away from Florida and Louisiana and Texas...so that
A.) My vacation won't be ruined
B.) So that gas prices won't go up
My co-worker Jessica probably seriously hates my obsession with weather.com as of late, but I firmly believe it is everyone's duty to make sure my vacation is fabulous or else they don't get a souvenir.
Coming up next...Disney Day 2 itinerary!!
Oh Mickey you're so fine you're so fine you've blown my wallet nearly empty. Hey Mickey!
Well, not as empty as it could be.
Welcome to my very first blog post as I gear up for My Disney Vacation. My name is Monica and I am going to Disney World in Orlando, FL for the very first time with my Prince Charming AKA-Daniel/fiance. Seeing as how this is a major vacation for us (the last time we went on a "major" vacation was to Vegas for 3 days in 2006...hey we're young!) I decided to chronicle our vacation via this blog.
Stuck at the office? Bored at home? Don't be! Come to Disney with me!
Hurricane Gustav has decided to form near Cuba and Haiti which is near Florida. Peachy.
Now, why am I going to Disney in the middle of hurricane season you might ask? Well, primarily because of the free food. To lure stupid thrifty people like us, they offer free dining if you stay at one of their lovely resorts. By lovely I mean that we picked the cheapest one on property, but I am sure it is still lovely. We are staying at the All Star Music resort, which is located near the Animal Kingdom.
Overall, having free food for 9 days saves us over $1,500. Our entire trip is costing less than $1,500 thanks to free food and a free flight from Southwest.
Coming up in the next post...our itinerary!
