Holy safari batman! It's an upgrade!
Gather round the campfire for a story..Bella style...
My super super wonderful fiance, The Dave, spent an hour on hold yesterday just to see if we could apply the Season of Dreams discount code to our already made Magic Your Way Package with dining at Port Orleans Frech Quarter. Nope...they're all booked up that week..all the other moderates (not that I REALLY wanted to switch) already booked up too... Then the Disney Reservationist, Alfredo saw we were a honeymoon couple (they even put that on our bill--it's super exciting) and said to give him a moment and let him see what he could come up with...Dave just thought maybe he'd weasel his way into POFQ...but NO..NO...there was ONE...yes ONE..room left...with the dining package...King Size...at... ANIMAL KINGDOM LODGE!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yeah..but AKL is still SUPER expensive even with the discount..we can't afford it..it was our first choice.......Dave tells Alfredo..our wonderful  wonderful Disney Reservation dude..(who Dave says had a bit of a cold..feel better soon Alfie )But Alfredo says, no, no Dave..this package will actually be $100 LESS than you'll be spending at POFQ...  SO now..our honeymoon will be at AKL..my dream resort...YES!!!!!!!....  It's still a standard king size room, so no animals at our balcony...but we're super pumped about being at a deluxe I really don't think that'll matter to us!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Whoohoo it's been the best week ever!

How exciting Bella! I was hoping you and The Dave would be able to take advantage of the discount, and an upgrade is just awesome!
