We're about 3 months out from my trip, so I thought I'd start a little pre-TR. Just got into the double-digits a couple days ago!
Trip Details
Who?
Me!
My name is Stephen and I am going to be a senior at USC in Los Angeles. I'm a Trojan through and through.
Seeing as I just got my grandparent's old car this year, I make frequent trips down to Disneyland...at least twice a month! I'm a Premier Passport holder because 6 months ago I was in WDW running the Goofy Challenge! My pass will still be good for this trip.
I worked at MK two summers ago through a program with my college's Christian organization (blog in my sig), and I plan on doing the College Program or a Professional Internship after I graduate next year. And yes, I'll be playing hookey from college for a couple of days, but why not? It's Disney.
My Parents
Both of them work at our local high school, but will be taking a couple days off for our trip. Both are Disney fans, but my mother is much more of a planner than my dad. Originally, it was just going to be me and my mom, but then my dad decided to join us too!

I also have a younger brother who will be left behind because he'll be a senior in high school and can't take the time off.
When? Thursday 10/3-Monday 10/7. I've been to WDW 3 times, not counting the summer I worked there. Twice was in the middle of summer and once was this past January. My parents have only gone during the summer. It will be fun to see the resort at a different time of the year.
Where? We'll be staying offsite and renting a car. We belong to a vacation club called WorldMark, which has a property on I-Drive, like 10 min away from Epcot, which is really convenient. We stayed there on our first trip to WDW 6 years ago and we enjoyed it. Gives us more $$$ to spend on food and wine!
Why? My 21st birthday is in September, so this is a birthday trip for me! I can't wait to sample the different beers and wines at the booths. Plus we're a food-enjoying family! Food Network is our jam! Anybody watch Next Food Network Star? One of my favorite shows.
And as I'm about to graduate college, time for family vacations is extremely limited. This will be a good trip to see my parents, make some memories, and take a little break from school too.
Updates to come!
