Hi All!
to my TR for our most recent trip. There is a little Disneyland, a little San Diego and a lot of Disney cruising! Please bear with me, this is only my second TR and I am still finding my way
Let me start with the introductions.
The Who
Myself - Shelley, big Disney fan. Love a lot of the films, fave character is Donald Duck
DH - Carl, not as big a Disney fan as I am but he does love it and is very happy to indulge my Disney side.
Both from South West England, born and brought up in Plymouth before we moved to Bridgwater over 7 years ago. We have been together 10 years in Feb and married 6 years in Jan of 2016.
We went on our fist Disney cruise in 2012. We were a little apprehensive at first - in the way a lot of people think cruising is only for older people (how wrong) that it can be a little stuffy (not on Disney) maybe even that we'd feel out of place(HA!) but we fell in love with it and this is now our 3rd completed cruise and we have another 2 booked!!
Here is a picture of us at Disneyland Paris in May
I use this photo to not give anything away from the TR
The What the when and the where
We spent 4 nights in Anaheim, 2 nights in San Diego followed by a 14 night Cruise on the Disney Wonder
The Why
We had bought a house in 2013 and it was a bit of a fixer upper (we're still not quite finished) We have worked very hard, stripping it right back, adding new wiring (there was only 1 socket in each room - nowhere near enough for this day in age!!!) We had worked so hard and hadn't been on vacation for quite sometime so we wanted to treat ourselves. Plus it was my 30th birthday in May - the week we went to Disneyland Paris (if anyone is interested there is a link to my first ever TR in my signature) so we wanted to do something special.
I really wanted to do Alaska but Carl isn't so keen on the thought of cruising where it's cold. I will say we spoke to a lot of people on board who told us we MUST do Alaska so his mind may start changing - fingers crossed!
The why to the TR - well what better way to relive your trip!?!?
I have to upload all of the photos so bear with me for a couple days but then we can really get going. Hope you'll all enjoy this TR as much as I have enjoyed all of the ones I have read and as much as we enjoyed this vacation!!
