Greetings.
I am a new poster to these forums, but I've been a long time WDW fan, and I thought the best way to introduce myself properly was to recount my most recent trip there. I have an introduction thread which can be found here. So, without further ado, let me introduce some background to the trip:
Dates of Travel
This trip, it was decided to travel in mid September, figuring that the parks would be quieter that time of year, due to the fact that the kids have only just gone back to school, both in the US and here in the UK. Also, the weather will still be pretty good. Thus, our arrival date was September 10, and our departure date was September 17.
Dramatis Personae
Featuring on this trip would be the following:
My folks were accompanying us on this trip, but we were staying in different resorts, and for the most part doing our own thing, however we did meet up occasionally.
Where we stayed
My brother and I selected the All Star Sports resort, thus completing the trilogy, having stayed at Movies on the previous trip (in 2007-08) and at Music the trip before that (1998-99). My folks, on the other hand, elected to stay at Port Orleans Riverside, the site of our first stay on Disney property back in 1997, in the days of old when it was still called Dixie Landings.
Now that all the introductory stuff is out of the way, it is time to relate the story of the trip. Stay tuned to the thread as I relate to you tales of cast members and their riddles, epic weather, late night audience participation, surprise, confusion and much more! There may be detail lacking in some parts, due to the fact that it was a few months ago, and I may not be able to remember specifics about certain parts.
Enjoy!
