The Ate Days of Christmas

[adamtoonarmy]

See what I did there? in the title? good eh?

Well we are going for 9 days really (8 nights) but that wouldn't have worked in the title would it? As longstanding weight watchers members stuffing our faces with whatever we can find forms a big part of any trip to Orlando so the title seems to fit.

So welcome to my pre trippie - I've left it late to do one as I've only just decided to write a report for this trip. I wasn't going to but you have a few of my dibb mates (yes that includes you Colin and yes you as well Andrea) to thank (or blame) for me writing this.

Last seen in my 2014 trippie If you can eat it then you should eat it the cast count remains at 2 - just me and the Mrs - Adam and Michelle

We have been back since our 2014 with a 2 week stay at Old Key West in June this year. This current trip came about because of the poor housekeeping service and dirty room that we had while we were there. I wrote a complaint when I got home and was offered 5 nights in any 1 bedroom DVC villa whenever I wanted. Michelle has always wanted to see WDW at Christmas so thats what we decided to do. I added three nights at Pop Century Resort through US travel agency MEI and Mousefan Travel. They had a special group rate on which ended up with me getting a standard room for about £65 per night. We then move over to Beach Club Villas for our 5 comped nights. Although we could choose any DVC property it was dependent on availability and Beach Club was the best option. No dining plan this time so we are looking forward to trying some off site eateries. We are already booked for September 2016 and have the dining plan for that so we are not planning on much onsite eating this trip. Although I am planning on a lot of eating

We are going to Disney parks only and will be visiting all of the deluxe resorts to see the Christmas decs. I have a dinner package reserved for the Candlelight Processional and we will be taking in the Osborne lights for the first (and last) time. Buying 14 day ultimates was cheaper than 8 day MYW tickets so thats what we did. We have economy flights with Virgin Atlantic and have booked exit row seats. What else? Oh yes, we have memory maker as well.

So thats it folks - 2 more days at work and then we are off to Manchester ahead of our 8th trip to Walt Disney World. See you when I get back and I hope you enjoy reading.

I will leave you with a few of my favourite photos from our June trip
