Our Trip 2012


I started this blog as a countdown to our 2012 trip and also as a resource for others who love Walt Disney World.  I began the countdown at 371 days.  It's hard to believe that the trip is now over BUT the memories and the pictures live on!  I hope you enjoy the pictures and the memories.

PreTrip and Road Trip.

Mickey Mouse Pancakes

Our bags are packed and the van is loaded!  Departing home at 7:10...only 10 minutes late.  A new record.


Our first stop...Anna IL...a whopping 45 minutes after our trip started!  Making great time already.

Kentucky rest stop.
Music City Baby!!!!
Going through Atlanta
Our first hotel in Macon GA.

Not so sunny today.  May 28.
and since it was Memorial Day NO FREE OJ!!!!
After some 900 miles...We finally ARRIVED!!!!!

I know the overall goal of the vacation is to get to where you are going but there is something magical and exciting about the journey.  I've always loved staying in different hotels and watching the miles tick away and it's great sharing those moments with my family.  The kids love elevators, free breakfasts, Mad Libs, Joker's Run and rooms that connect with Grandma and Grandpa's room.   Stay tuned for our trip to Downtown Disney.

Focused on the Magic

What if Disney Characters had Said AFI's Most Famous Quotes? Cont...

Today I continue the countdown...So what if the top 100 movie quotes of all time were said by Disney characters?  My goal is to take the 100 "Greatest Movie Quotes of All Time" as determined by AFI and determine what Disney movie or Disney character would have said the line.  I will start the countdown at 100 and then countdown five at a time. Let me know what you think.  Did I make any obvious mistakes or overlook an obvious choice?  Leave your comments below.   I hope you enjoy.  If you missed the earlier lines click HEREHEREHERE, Here, Here and here.

A Little Change...91

I feel like branching out.  I know that I have picked a blog with a narrow niche.  I still love talking about Disney but to quote the Little Mermaid, "I want more."  So I hope you don't mind but I am going to be changing the format a little.  I still plan on discussing Disney and planning WDW vacations but I'm also going to be doing some non-Disney related posts.  Hope you are all ok with that.



I have started another blog site called Over Kool-Aid.  The Over Kool-Aid posts will be featured on both sites and any Disney related post will stay just on The Disney Plan.  I'm not real good with change or transitions but I think this will ease me into the next phase of my blogging.  I really enjoy it...don't know if I'm very good at it but I enjoy it.  So I'm going to keep going.  Thanks for reading and I hope you enjoy the new posts.

A Disney Scholar...172

Well I have been teaching for 12 years.  I have been blogging about Disney for 8 months.  In February I get the chance to combine those two things.  That's right, I am going to teach a two hour class about planning a trip to the World.  It will either be called Walt Disney World 101, real original I know or Planning Your Trip to Walt Disney World.  What do you think?

I will be teaching it at our Career Center.  I don't know if all the planning and preparation will be worth the $40 I will be paid but I am excited about the opportunity.  I may need to change my name from the DisneyMacAddict to Professor Disney...ok maybe not.  I am still in the planning process, but I will keep you up to date on my progress.  And if you ask real nice I may make my Keynote (it's like PowerPoint only better) available for your viewing.  Pretty cool how God opens doors.  Wonder will this one leads.

If you have any great ideas or suggestions please leave me a comment.

Thanks for reading.
