I’ve really been getting excited the past couple days for our trip to Disney world at the end of January so I thought it was probably time I sat down and started our Pre Trip report. My lovely wife Liz and I are going from Jan 26th through Jan 31, 2011 to celebrate our 2nd anniversary and we are staying at Pop Century. For those of you who don’t know us , a little background: I am Brent; Disney fanatic and Cinderella lover.





Cinderella is obviously my favorite Disney character. I will quickly share a few of those reasons. Reason #1 She is blond and beautiful. Ok, really that’s got nothing to do with it, but Liz and I met through Disney (met on Passporter actually!) Liz was very ummm independent and had absolutely no use at all for some mousey little blond girl sitting around waiting for NO man to come around. (Forgive me, Liz!) What Liz saw in me that made her give me a chance with her I’ll never know, but she did. We vacationed together and spent weekends together and over time her hard attitude toward men (well at least, me!) softened and we became more than friends, and eventually married. It seemed Cinderella was there for every single one of the major milestones in our relationship and she even helped me propose. I still can’t watch Cinderella the movie without crying and I’ve seen it a gazillion times. We even saw Middle School age kids put on a play of the Cinderella story and I got all misty eyed on that too. Guess I have to give up a few punches on my man card for all this but I don’t care. I just love Cinderella and her story and I get butterflies in my stomach on each of our trips when I see her. Which is why we must go and see her several times during each of our trips! I also make T-shirts of my past meetings with Cinderella and the other Princesses and wear them in the parks. They certainly seem to get me a lot of attention.  Last trip my affection for Cinderella just seemed to pop up everywhere! That’s a little bit about me, now for Liz. What’s there to say? I’ll let her give you good people her own introduction because she usually chimes in here with her ‘version’ of what happened after I post an installment of my trip report. She loves Tinkerbell almost as much as I love Cinderella.

I certainly don’t seem to have that much luck with Tinkerbell. She gives me a pretty good smack down on each trip.




I’ve referred to our past trips a couple times. For those of you who are new to us, here’s a couple links to our last few trip reports if you want some more background:

As I mentioned, these last couple days I’ve really been getting excited about our trip. I bought a couple things for our trip today and actually framed the pillowcase I had all the Princesses sign last January:



I bought the iron on transfers for our shirts and a new package of socks today. I always buy a new pack of socks to wear to Disney. Guess I’m just funny that way. Anyone else have any eccentricities like that? So anyway here we go!

On the evening of Tuesday, January 25th we will travel to a nice hotel with a pool right by the airport. We are booked on a park n fly package because we have an early flight and it’s easier to stay the night there, plus with them letting us park our car there, we save on parking and it actually comes out about even. Plus the hotel has an indoor pool and it just seems like you get to start your vacation a little sooner. Our flight on Delta Airlines leaves at 8:00 am on Wednesday Jan 26th. If all goes well with the unpredictable Winter weather we will arrive in Sunny and hopefully warm Orlando around 11:00. After we get the rental car, drive to Pop and check in it should be around noon. We will then head to the Hollywood Studios. Hopefully the crowds won’t be too severe and we’ll have time to hit our favorites at that park: Tower of Terror. Rock n Roller Coaster. Voyage of the Little Mermaid. (This one makes me teary eyed as well). Would also like to see The Beauty and the Beast show, I saw it for the first time in it’s entirety on our last trip and I was blown away. It was awesome! Also want to hit the Movie Ride and walk through Walt’s one Man’s dream attraction. I’m thinking that’s probably all we’ll have time for before they close but I think we’re hitting the best this park has to offer. We’re off to Chef Mickeys from here. Almost wish we were eating at 50’s Prime Time again on the off chance we would get my favorite waitress, Sarah. I was her favorite at our table last trip and I enjoyed her so much I had to have a picture:



So that’s our arrival day! Stay tuned for details about our second day: Magic Kingdom and my first meeting with Cinderella, hopefully!! (And to a lesser extent, Tink)

Stay Tuned!
