We might have an advantage over some of you going to WDW. First we are retired. We can go whenever we like. Unless we are staying more than 5 days we go during the week when the crowds are at the smallest. We never go to the theme parks so we don't see many crowds anyway. Since Jan is in a power chair we always get loaded on the buss first. No waiting in long buss lines. We live just over 2 hrs from WDW so getting there is never a long process. Can make it round trip on 1 tank of fuel in the car. We always go during Fl. Resident rates. For 6 nights in Sept. our room rates are $72.00 including tax. We don't have any young children with us so we are never rushed about anything. We don't plan our days. We just do what we feel like doing at the moment. We know the transportation system inside out. We pretty much know where to get the most reasonable (It's Disney after all so nothing is cheap.) and decent food.
It was always fun going with all the kids and grand kids but in the past few years, since we have been making the trip by ourselves, we have discovered a new magic. We are in the twilight days of our life. We are just as much sweethearts as when we first met 54 years ago. Being in WDW at this time of our life is the happiest of all times.
You know, I've learned so much from people on this board already. Was just talking to my boyfriend about the positive and thoughtful posts from some recent additions to the board, including you, Joe. Being a part of this community puts things into a great perspective.
So, Joe, how long have you two actually been married? Have you told us and I missed it?
