11 weeks

11 weeks to go from today until we head off to Orlando, and our first visit "home" to the Animal Kingdom Lodge villas - we love DVC. (Not forgotten that we are going to IOW for a week in just a few days time, but countdowns to Disney are always fun!)

To mark the 11 weeks, here are 11 things that I love about WDW. Listing rides and shows would be easy, so here's 11 something elses!

  1. It will always be a special place for us because we went there on our honeymoon.
  2. Drinking a hot chocolate, sat by the bridge to Liberty Square in the Magic Kingdom, watching a parade go by.
  3. The Sassagoula River from Downtown to Port Orleans. Taking a Water Mouse out with Jake on Christmas Day was lots of fun.
  4. Dinner at the California Grill at the Contemporary Resort followed by watching the Wishes fireworks.
  5. Music in the parks - Do you remember, back to a simpler time, back to the watercolour days, that still run through my mind
  6. Wandering around the World of Disney store at Downtown - spending far too much money!
  7. Leaving through the International Gateway at Epcot and taking a stroll along the Boardwalk.
  8. Getting beaten by Jake at the Fantasia Gardens mini golf.
  9. Tracking down the picture of a six month old Jake at Leave a Legacy in Epcot.
  10. Clam Chowder - Celebration or Cape May or Fultons Crab House - don't mind which!
  11. Having a haircut at the Main Street barbers (one for me this, probably not for Jake after the red spikes incident!)

We love it!
