Alkel’s WDW (Wedding, Disneymoon & Weightloss) Trip Report!

Hello everyone and welcome to my very first trip report index!

Hope you enjoy reading my crazy inner rambles as much as I love writing it. Its like therapy, this.

Its gonna take me a while to cobble this all together, partly because I'm struggling to understand my notes taken on holiday, partly because its taking me whole days to report one day but mainly because I tend to go on. A lot!

Here's the story so far:

Introduction and wedding - meet the Alkels, and find out how it all began. (UPDATED 3rd July 2011 to include official wedding slideshow.)

Day before and travel day - loads of stress, loads of worry and loads of pixie dust that day.

Day 1 - EPCOT and the posh meal - starting with the hunt for brekki, the bitter-tasting lunch and then the super duper posh meal at the Yachtman's.

Day 2 Part 1 - Breakfast and check out of the Boardwalk

Day 2: Part 2&3 - Animal Kingdom, Yak and Yeti and Animal Kingdom Lodge

Day 3 Part 1 - Check out, Universal Studios, the new room and House of Blues

Day 3 Part 2 & 3 - Universal, the new room and House of Blues

Day 4 - Seaworld and Ponderosa

Day 5 - Hollywood Studios, the pool and Illuminations

Day 6 - Blizzard Beach, Rainforest cafe, Downtown Disney and the Haagen-Dazs shoppe.

Day 7 - Discovery Cove and the Wishes Dessert party with VIDEO!

Day 8 - IoA, Wizarding world of Harry Potter, Three Broomsticks, the storm and Golden Corral

Day 9 - EPCOT, Lotus Blossom cafe and Fantasmic.

And the story continues...
