Valerie's Deluxe all the way fun weekend!!!
Cast: me Valerie
DH Clarence Dates January 18th- 21st. Resort: Contemporary Last weekend we took one of the most relaxing trips we have ever had. Back in November I was researching flights and found Delta one tickets to Orlando for $139.00. Surprised, I check for a Disney reservation, and found a great deal for the CR using my CM discount. It was too good to pass up so without telling my DH I booked both of us. His birthday is in Jan so I thought that this would be a great way to celebrate. When I told him we were going back to WDW so soon after out October trip he was skeptical, but when I should him the numbers he said “let’s go!!! For me this was a dream trip because I had always wanted to stay on the monorail line, and I had been hearing really good reviews on CR online. Our room was going to be a garden room but before we left I received a surprise in my email…

Re: Valerie's Deluxe all the way fun weekend!!!
The surprise was that our room as listed as being a Bay Lake view Tower room. Now I was so excited. I couldn’t believe it. This trip was quickly turning perfect. Our flight Fri morning left Knoxville at 7:30 so we were at the airport at six. On the way there we listened to the WDW soundtrack to get excited. Our flight left on time and less than 2 hours later we were at MCO. I love to fly!!! There is nothing better that waking up, getting to the airport early and be landed in Florida at 10:00 am.

Re: Valerie's Deluxe all the way fun weekend!!!
We got some coffee at the airport to perk us up, and were quicking on our way to check into ME. Checkin was smooth, and soon we were on the bus. Unfortunately the bus was slow in leaving and we had to wait 20 mins for the bus to leave.
 I get really impatient on a bus, waiting on a bus, and having to make multiple stops. When we arrived on Disney property my heart filled with joy. To me when I arrive, and I see the Welcome to Walt Disney World sign, my eyes water up and my heart feels at home.  Our driver announced that the first stop would be the Poly, and the I realized "we could get off here, and ride the monorail to the CR". My DH liked the idea, and never misses a chance to visit the Poly. I was also hungry at the this point, and I was really hoping to get some Tonga toast at Captin Cooks. We laughed we got off the ME bus, but the driver didn't say anything, DH tipped him, and we were off!!!!

Re: Valerie's Deluxe all the way fun weekend!!!
I was so happy to be there. We we got to Captin Cook’s we had missed Tonga Toast by 15 mins at first I was crushed till I saw the self service Dole Whips. This was the perfect time to have a dole whip for breakfast. Life was feeling pretty good. It was 10:45 on a Friday morning I was at the Poly viewing Cinderella’s castle while eating a dole whip.

Glad to hear you were able to return to WDW so soon! Bummer that you missed the Tonga Toast.  But Dole Whips are tasty! Not as tasty as those you get on the Dole Plantation in Hawaii, but still very tasty!
