11 Days Of Orlando Magic - Pre Trippy


Yes I really think it is! I am planning on posting a live photo trip report from the magic starting on September 9th.

Here is an introduction to us and our trip!



Me: Anna, chief planner, Disney obsessed, Dibberoony... I completed a live trip report last year and found it to be a great keepsake for memories.
Favourite park: Magic Kingdom
Favourite ride: Tower of Terror.



Mum (Jane) The reason I am a Disney addict! She took me for my first trip in 1989 and I've never looked back. Mum last visited in 2007 and is very excited to be going back.
Favourite park: Epcot
Favourite ride: Haunted Mansion



Now, no laughing at this picture (ok maybe you can!) This was mum and I in 1990, looking pretty cool I think!

This trip is very special to us as it's just us 2 - kids and husbands and worries are all being left at home.

So the plan...



September 9th overnight at the Hilton Gatwick.



September 10th, Flying upper class (very posh and very exciting!) with Virgin to Orlando international where we will be whisked to Disney's Old Key West for 10 nights.



We have a 1 bedroom villa booked.






Car booked with Alamo to pick up onsite. I am designated driver and mum is going to attempt to navigate!



ADR's all booked thanks to free DDP including a breakfast at Be Our Guest😊



MNSSHP tickets purchased. It will be our first ever Halloween party. Our outfits are all sorted, below is a taster of what we will be wearing, saving the real thing for the day!






Planning on visiting all the 4 Disney parks and we also have 1 day offsite for Universal where mum will experience Harry Potter for the first time!



I can't wait for her to see it as I was blown away by it all last year.






We have also planned a day to go shopping at the outlets for all those essential purchases.



To continue a much loved family Disney tradition of ours mum and I will endeavour to try on as many silly hats as possible so expect a lot of this...















I will also be adding to this extensive collection of fridge magnets 😉









Not long to go now, the days are getting longer I'm sure!

Thank you for reading and look out for the daily updates very soon!

Anna xx
