Goin' Down the Bayou ~ The TR (November 1-10, 2012)

Hi All! It's time to get this started

If you missed it and want to catch up on some of my pre trip planning, here's a link to my PTR: Goin' Down the Bayou - PTR

For those who want to skip all that reading , here's some quick background info on my family and this trip.


Who:
Me (Jenn -35) Self titled Disney Queen and happy planner! I love planning our trips to Disney, planning is part of the fun for me This was my 15th trip to the World and I consider myself lucky to have spent so much time there. I am thrilled to be able to share all of this with my family, and I can only hope that my girls will grow up to have as many fond memories of Disney as I do


Chris (37) A lover of WDW, though he will claim to be not as "obsessed" as I am I am lucky he indulges my desire to go more and more!


Kaeli (8) With her 4th trip under her belt, her love of Disney has really grown. We haven't been home for more than a couple of weeks and she's already making suggestions for our next trip A girl after my own heart! Her favorite characters are Tiana, Merida and Duffy.




Abby (6) Shy and quiet, but also fun loving and silly, a believer of Disney magic. I love seeing everything through her eyes! She might have a difficult time choosing and say that all of the characters are her favorite, but she holds a special place in her heart for Duffy bear





When: November 1-10, 2012


Where: Port Orleans Riverside, room 3931 in Alligator Bayou, with Free Dining



That's it for now, but I'll be back soon with some more details!

Glad you've started. You're going to shame me into starting soon aren't you?
I think we all had a tough time coming home this time around so it will be good to go back and relive it all with you
