It's that time of year again...when the SeaCastle clan heads down to the Disney mecca to spend a week of eating, riding, and shopping in the Vacation Kingdom of the World.
The three of us are departing from Atlantic City International Airport on August 27th. We'll be staying at the Contemporary until September 3rd, and at that point we'll be back in the Armpit of the Nation, also known as New Jersey.
We've been visiting quasi-regularly since 2004. Our first visit was in 2000, with subsequent visits in 2004, 2005, 2007, 2008, 2010, and now 2011. The three of us love Disney, with me being the "nut". This will be our third time in a row going to WDW in August, with the first in 2008 from the 21st to the 28th. During the first half of our visit, Tropical Storm Fay dumped rain throughout the region, which made our visit very interesting and very low on crowds. During the week, we never waited more than a half hour for any attraction. The temperature was never too bad, and we managed to have an absolutely wonderful time. We then went last year from the 12th through the 19th. The weather was much hotter and much less rainy and the crowds were larger, though we had just as much fun as we always do. Who knows what this visit will bring!
We have made all of our reservations and ADRs. We'll be eating at Mama Melrose's, the Yachtsman Steakhouse, San Angel Inn, Via Napoli, the Kona Cafe, and the Nine Dragons Cafe. We've never eaten at the Yachtsman, Nine Dragons, or Kona Cafe, so we are anxiously awaiting those meals.
I'll also be traveling with my relatively new Canon Rebel XS, and I'm expecting upwards of 2,000 pictures by the time the week ends.
Check back for more updates.
