31 Days to Go

Walt Disney World

Although you probably could not tell by the posts on my blog it has been 10 months since my last trip to my second home (maybe my first home). My plans for an October trip were cancelled due to training for work (training which I just completed last week due to postponements). I changed my plans at Christmas time due to obligations at work (ended up sending the kids by themselves). So I am really starting to get excited for this trip coming up in 31 days. I’ll try not to be too obnoxious about it, but this post can serve as a warning… 😉

When I ended up having to cancel my plans in October I knew exactly the time frame I would plan to return to Disney. There are numerous special events throughout the year at Disney. I’m sure they started in the off season to try and entice visitors to the resorts in the slower parts of the year but have since grown to be expected events that draw very large crowds. In the spring/early summer time frame two events actually overlap by one weekend. The end of the International Flower & Garden Festival and the first of the Star Wars Weekends coincide on May 15,16 & 17 this year. My trip will be from May 13th to the 20th. I will be in Disney/Star Wars nerd heaven… 🙂

Reflecting (anticipating) on this year’s events I have been digging through my old images. Here are a few from previous events…
