So, here we are. Nearly February. My NCAA Football season is over (blah Auburn blah ... it'll be vacated in 5 years anyhow). I'm filling the void with basketball until draft time. I'm a football girl, but just can't get into the NFL. Bunch of whiny crybabies.
Anyhow, I'm occupying my time with working on a few new ventures, MBA work, and the usual ESPN rotation (save for tennis - that sucks).
Oh. And planning our next Disney trip.
I think that we're going to go back the same week as last year (September 28 - October 4). This is Wednesday - Tuesday, and for good reason. Airfare. Look at what Southwest charges, and when. The cheapest days to fly with them are Tuesday and Wednesday every week. If I stalk the sales, I can likely hit airfare for $59 each way, per person. Plus, leveraging the "off days" for Magical Express is perfect.
Another reason to choose that week - we can catch the Food and Wine Festival soft opening on September 30th. The booths are all open, and are serving the same food ... but with 100% less crowds. And of course, who can forget MNSSHP? It's quite possibly the perfect week.
Of course, I plan to go "home" to the Polynesian. My husband has always dreamt of staying at the Contemporary though ... I need to talk it over with him and see where he wants to stay. Both are similarly priced (we'd do Theme Park View Tower at the Contemporary versus Garden View at the Polynesian), but the reality is that I just love the Polynesian. Maybe a little aggressive negotiation is in the works?
Next time I write, I need to talk through a few things ... my thoughts on the water parks, Halloween costumes, and my stepdaughter's pending diagnosis.
