My name is Lisa. I have a daughter Lindsay (13) - we live in the Atlanta, Georgia area with our Boxer (Shiloh) and 4 cats (Charles, Molly, Max and Boy - don't ask about the last ones name LMAO!) Takes me 7 hours driving to get there with 1 stop....takes me about 9-10 to get home because no matter how hard we try...we always get hung up on the South side of Atlanta coming home! :ROFLOL:

However, this year I'm going solo and flying...so about 2 hours flying ha ha!:sohappy:

My name is Kim. I have one son, Zak, and one daughter, Kelsey. This past winter is the first winter since 2004 that I did not make it to Disney World,:( but I am looking forward to going in November.:) It takes me just over 2 hours to fly to Orlando. It takes 24 hours to drive which I avoid if at all possible-much prefer flying.

Hi all, my name is Matt. My Wife, Kelly, and I have a 6 month old daughter Ella. We will be taking her to WDW for the first time in September. We live way up north in snowy Edmonton, Alberta (yes, there is still snow on the ground up here).

Sadly, Edmonton doesn't have any direct flights to Orlando, yet, so it typically means a long day of travel including at least one lay over. I'd say it turns out to be a good 10-12 hour travel day when you account for all the time we spend in the different airports and on the plane.

We own DVC and visit WDW often.

2 hours and 10 minutes from IND to MCO via Airtran non-stop. Might resort to driving the 15 hours if Southwest doesn't offer some non-stop flights with acceptable times (they currently do not) after absorbing Airtran.

Mark. Or as I would say at the Japan pavilion, ぼくはマアクです

Single, no kids, but have TONS of friends and family to go with.

My Grandmother's name is Minnie. Not kidding!

About a 5.5 hour drive from Warner Robins, GA with breaks.
 
Hi everyone ! My name is Brittany (18) from New York. We are a family of four that have been visiting WDW every year since my first birthday. We always fly down to Orlando which takes about 2 1/2 hours. I have a Minnie Mouse tattoo on my hip that I get questioned about constantly with people wondering why I'm so obsessed with Disney. Of course, there are just so many answers to that question that I could talk about it ALL day. I can't wait for my next trip that is 77 days away!! :sohappy:

I'm Chrissy, from Rhode Island. It takes about 2.5 hours for me to get to WDW by plane. I've never driven there, but I'm going to have to at some point if I expect my boyfriend to go back :lol: His first plane ride was to WDW in 2007 and... well, he didn't enjoy it.
I also have a Disney tattoo, it's of the EPCOT Center logo on my calf.

Hey Tiaragirl I'm from Nova Scotia, too. :wave:

My name is Janet and I live with my boyfriend, we are both happily co-habitating and plan on staying marriage-free and child-free...figure I'd rather have more money for WDW trips anyway :lol:

I worked in WDW in 1996-1997 at the Canadian Pavilion and come from a Disney crazed family so we took lots of trips when I was a kid and I have been back a couple of times as an adult.

Hoping to get back "home" in Sept 2012 for a solo/photography trip and to have a reunion with fellow Canadian Cast Members from my time there.

My name is Milner. Most of you know me as being "cocky" and "snobby", but honestly I'm going to try to change that. I first went to Disney when I was an infant, not even 1. I've only missed to years go to WDW ever since I was born and those years I missed it, I at least went to Downtown Disney to get a pin. I'm from Inman, S.C. about 15 minutes away from Spartanburg. It used to only take us 5 hours to get to WDW, but now it takes 9 hours and yet we still go! Although my dad, mom, and my sister think we've been to WDW so many times we've done it to death, so I'm the one that keeps us going convincing them to go there instead of Universal each year. Every time we go they're alot more happy than they are at Universal, so I think I did a good deed. We've started going on the cruise lines and they want to do that instead of the parks, luckily, I convinced them to do both. :)

David, age 33. I'm married to Amy and this September 8th, on our first Disney day of the trip, it will be our 10th anniversary. We've got 2 kids, Ashley(11) and Justin(10), yes we were naughty.

I'm from Los Angeles but I've been trapped in Mississippi(border of Memphis, TN) since 1994. I grew up going to DL and did without Disney anything from 1992 until 2008. We've been 3 times since, 08, 09 and last month.

It takes us a little over 12 hours to drive from here. We haven't flown but I think it takes about 2 hours or so from Memphis to Orlando.

I'm Dee. I've been married to Joe for almost 22 yrs and we have one daughter Keeley who is 14. We went for her first visit when she was 5 and went once a year until 2008 and haven't been back since. But we are heading there in Sept. :sohappy: We live in Arkansas about an hour and 15 mins from Memphis. We are driving this trip (unless airfares drop) and it's going to take about 12 hours. We have 2 dogs Seeka and Disney. 2 cats, Belle and Dory. We had a hamster who has since passed and his name was Splash.
