I was going every other year when I first joined MB, then Disney Central. I started going every year because I starting making more money per year...that's the only reason. Like said above, I get more "substance" from my trip due to being on here. I don't expect more than what I pay for however. Nice little touches of magic here and there are suppose to be surprises...no expected in my opinion. I won a dream last trip and two the trip before. I never expected to win any of the above and my trip would have been cool if I didn't. To tell you all the truth, this last trip I took was the best one I ever went on. It was relaxed and I through most of my plans out the window. I think after all these trips, it's not necessary to plan the heck out of it anymore. It sets expectations that cannot be reached and causes me to much stress when things don't go as planned. I will still plan my park days because I think it's smart to have a plan and go with or against EMH, but I'm done with the sit-down meals and all the other crap that makes me race from one place to the next when all I want to do is stop and look at the animals for a few hours at AK if I feel like it....

This board made me plan a little to much..well, didn't make me, encouraged me. Like everything else I do, it's 150% or not at all and this site only fed into that need to over-do everything..lol I am just going to pick a park and do whatever I want from there on out.

This site didn't make me go more or less often...just made me insane with plans that didn't need to be made.
