I'm Going to Disney World!

Meaghan and I had saved up some vacation money over the last year or so with the intention of visiting central Europe some time later this year. She wants to go back to Prague (where she taught English for awhile in the midst of her college career) and I'd like to see Munich and all of the crazy castles in the Bavaria countryside. However, the rapidly tanking dollar has caused us to put our European aspirations on hold for a little while. Besides, what sort of Americans would we be if we took our Bush rebate check and spent it in a different country?

So we considered a few options stateside and eventually decided that for the first time as independent adults (Meaghan's been 3 times previous; I've been 6(?) times) we would go down to Walt Disney World in Florida this July. So after a week or two of planning, I'm happy to report that we've finalized all of our flight, lodging, and dining plans. We've also put together a rough itinerary for the length of our visit. For those of you who've never been to WDW before, it's the kind of place that you can really waste a lot of time if you don't plan your trip out before you go. There are so many places to go, things to see, and other people to avoid that it can be overwhelming.

We decided to do it right, so we don't feel like we have to go back for awhile. We'll be down there from the 16th through the 26th and we'll take our digital camera with us, so I swear some pictures will appear here this time. We're staying at the All-Star Music (one of the gaudy, cheap resorts), but as long as our room is far away from these puppies (yes, those are ginormous cowboy boots) I'll be all right.


More details to come in July...
