When we began planning this trip we knew we wanted a full week. My husband has been working very hard and we've been lucky enough to take a few vacations along the way (2 Walt Disney World trips and a few cruises) but this trip was special and we really want to let loose and relax...and CELEBRATE! After we decided on the cruise, we thought about our pre-cruise stay. So here is the plan!
Wednesday- We'll leave around dinner to head to the airport. We are flying out of the next city over at 5 a.m. the next morning so we booked a stay and fly rate at a hotel nearby the airport.
Thursday-Fly out bright and early! Direct to Orlando where we'll hop in our rental car and head straight to the parks. We'll play until Sunday where we'll pick up friends and head to the Port (more on that later).
So we knew we'd be at Disney for 3 nights...but WHERE to stay? Let's take a look at this...we'd only be there 3 nights and since we had no kids with us, we won't be in the room much. Budget is a concern since we are cruising too BUT we are celebrating.

Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge is Magical
I love hearing REAL reviews from REAL guests!! Check out this awesome review from Ashley!
When my mom, our friend, and I decided we'd go to Disney World for my 21st birthday, we thought we'd do it on the cheap. Stay at one of the value resorts and upgrade to the Dining Plan so that we wouldn't have to worry about spending so much money.
And just like always, that's what we did. Our travel agent got us the quotes for a few of the value resorts and we decided on Pop Century.
But, like all almost 21-year olds that change their minds a lot, I decided value didn't sound like any fun. So we upgraded to a moderate.
That spiraled a few months later when Disney opened the free-dining package, and it didn't include the one moderate resort we were planning to stay at.
And then it happened . . .

The only resort available that had free dining left was Animal Kingdom Lodge!
