Help Me Con My Parents Into a Trip!

[crazygirley]

Hopefully someone can help! I am in the middle of trying to con my parents into a trip to WDW fro my 21st birthday...well, i've tried everything already...no luck. I'm going to try to make a "21 of our Favorite Things About WDW" book in hopes that my nostalgic and memory-driven parents will finally give in and plan a trip. This is where I need your help...

What are some good websites (besides this one) where I can find pictures from around WDW? All I want is pictures. Also, if anyone has a picture of the Chicken Strips...if you can post it, you will become my personal hero...I have searched EVERYWHERE! Thank you so much!

I did the same thing for our upcoming trip!!

On our last trip last year, it was "We probably won't be back for a few years, so enjoy it all."

Now, my parents cannot wait to go this Christmas for my 21st Birthday as well.

I had to very good selling points too. The first, exactly what you did, MEMORIES. Familiar sounds, sights, and emotions. My sister and I prepared dinner one night and "themed" it to the Caribbean Beach food court. We printed out all kinds of labels--Beverage Island on the fridge, Montego's Deli on one cabinet, Cinnamon Bay Bakery sign on the bread box area-- and we also got all of our Disney shirts, on hangers, and hung them up in the hallway to the kitchen to reminince of the Calypso Straw Market. We played steel drum music, used our Disney mugs, napkins, and assorted paraphernalia and made a great night.

Also, I brought up "prices." I discovered the amazement of the AP pass and how mcuh money it would save us for a Deluxe Resort. That was a major selling point.

Good luck Meaghan!! I honestly hope it all works out in your favor!!:xmas:

I got to go down in February because I said I wanted to look at a specific college (Flagler in St. Augustine). And since we "happened" to be in Florida, we just went to Disney.

Like my 7th grade English teacher told me: "nagging works". But anyhow. Keep nagging your parents about it. That's how I nailed December's trip.
