A Dream is a wish that your heart makes" a PTR( our first trip ever to WDW)

Who's going?

Abby(me) age 21 almost 22.
Matt(my husband) 26.

A little background on us

Matt and I have been "together " for 4 years and and married for almost 3. We met in college. I walked right up to him on the first day of school and introduced myself . We've been inseparable ever sense.
Matt and I have always had a fairy tale type love and I'm so lucky to have found my prince charming at such a young age. We also have an almost 2 year old but he will not be joining us on this trip.

I am a life long lover of Disney my husband however is a convert. We have had three trips to the" The Land" together since June 2011.

We will be making the excruciatingly Long journey from Anchorage Alaska to Orlando Florida on September 22 ,2012 And returning home on the evening of the 27th.

After careful consideration of all 3 categories Value, Moderate, and Deluxe we decided to go with a Deluxe resort .why not make our first time memorable and the best it can be. Now that we had narrowed it down to Deluxe it was time to choose. It was a no brainier for hubby he does photography as a hobby and insisted we stay at AkL. So AkL it is with an Arusha Savanna view room.

These are the dining reservations we have made

22nd 8pm House of Blues ( we might cancel and go to MK instead) still trying to figure it out

23rd tappen edo

24th sci fi drive in

25th ohanna

26th breakfast at Boma then heading over to IOA having Dinner at jimmy buffetts margarita vill.!!( this place is special to me because we ate there in Hawaii while we we're on our honeymoon. I'm really hoping its the same!

27th no ADR and the day we leave

Nothing left to do except reserve my scooter now...... (I was really hoping I wouldn't need one this trip

bitter sweet)

I've never really been a great writer or speller but hopefully this will do.

Thanks for reading everyone

Sounds like a great trip. My wife and are leaving from "The Ted" in 2-1/2 weeks. After a stop over for the Nascar race at Bristol, TN, we are headed to WDW for 9nights at the French Quarter. I'm ready to go now, as I'm sure you are as well.

DisneyGirl907 · 08-06-2012, 04:22 AM

Your trip sounds great too

and yes I am so ready to go but have lots of fun things planned before our trip to pass the time. I'm goin shopping in Seattle on Thursday and also the state fair is coming up too! It's nice to see that there's a fellow Alaskan on here are you and your wife living in the Anchorage area?

This is the first year in a long time we will not be here during the State Fair. We usually do a dog weight pull demonstration during the dog day. We live in Chugiak.

I haven't been to WDW since I was a teenager, and my wife has never been, so we are looking forward to all the fun. It will be hot though.

Plans look good. Last year my wife and I checked out menu at Margarittaville and found it to nearly IDENTICAL to CheeseBurger In Paradise which it what we have here in De. Decor was real close too so I suspect you won't be dissapointed

At least the state fair is always the same you wont be missing much. My husband and I always go for lunch on the first day every year.

You guys are doing exactly what we did! We went to Disneyland in 2011 and have gone two more times since June 2011. Your wife is going to love it!!! My husband did and was really surprised!i can't wait to hear about your trip!!!

My husband and his brothers played hockey for Chugiak when they was in high school but he grew up in Eagle River. We lived in Eagle River together for 2 years too. Just moved to the Valley last November.

I loved the one in Hawaii and can't wait to try this one out. I really liked the BBQ sauce on that they put on the ribs..... Yummm.
