The Travel Chick

In my family, we usually do a bunch of little trips a year and one big trip. This year the big trip is Walt Disney World.  My kids have been to China, they’ve been to the Caribbean, but they’ve never been to Disney, and now that my oldest is eight, we’re thinking we shouldn’t hold off any longer. The thing is it’s going to cost an INSANE amount of money and when I think of the AWESOME places we could go instead if we’re going to spend that much … it’s painful. But I love my kids, and though we always make it to zoos and children’s museums while we’re on vacation, they’ve also been saints as I’ve carted them to famous art galleries and peaceful temples.   They’ve earned a vacation designed specifically for kids.As I’ve been planning our trip, I’ve looked at the Disney website, of course, as well as Disney guide books, and I’ve been talking to friends and visiting message boards at travel sites like Frommer’s and Fodor’s.  I’m learning things like the Disney Princess breakfast is worth the extra expense and that shuttles travel between the Magic Kingdom and Disney hotels every fifteen minutes, so you don’t need a rental car or taxis.  I think it’s going to be a memorable trip.
