Upcoming May disneyworld trip

So we received a pin code for 40% off at a deluxe resort and 35% of moderates through the end of May.  We were planning on going anyway so we went for broke.  We decided to ask my parents to go with us and so we decided on the two-bedroom villa at Saratoga Springs Resort and Spa.  In all of my excitement of creating this blog I neglected to write any summary of this resort so that will be my next article.  Anyway we got a killer deal on this two-bedroom villa which we are going to split with my parents so it is even a better deal.  We also will have a full washer/dryer, full kitchen and alot more space and privacy with the children.  We have also elected to choose the regular Disney dining plan for this leg of our trip.  We will be staying on property for six nights with family so we have 6 table service meals, 6 counter service meals and 6 snacks for each person in our party (6).  Now the big decision of where to make reservations takes front and center because 180 days out you can make advanced dining reservations and that day is this Friday.  I will write an update of were our reservations are next week and why we chose what we did.

The second leg of our journey is new territory for us.  My wife and I are staying three additional days just the two of us to celebrate our 15th wedding anniversary.  My parents are taking the kids and driving home so that should be fun for them as well.  The wife and I are moving over to Port Orleans French Quarter in a king size bed for a little more romance.  We will be staying these three days but not doing the dining plan because we want more flexibility.  We plan on still making reservations but this allows more freedom when ordering from the menu if we want to split a meal or appetizer or whatever.  Believe it or not my wife chose this for our anniversary over a number of options because she loves Disney as much as the kids do!
