Well here is how this whole trip came about. Last November while I was on business trip to Orlando, I was able to spend an afternoon at Magic Kingdom and a couple nights wondering around Downtown Disney. This just peaked my desire to want to take the girls to disney, which Elaine and I had been talking about doing for the last 4 years. When I came home I brought a number brochures and park maps for the kids and hyped up the family about going to Disney World instead of Disneyland and hopefully going the following year.
After talking non stop about Disney World for a week my troubles began. Elaine was skeptical because here on the west coast, Disney World is often twice the cost of Disneyland in California. Our initial cost outlook for Disney world was between $5000.00 (7 days) - $10,000.00 (14 days). However, in the midst of all the action, and with our eldest daughter even more skeptical than my wife about this trip happening, I spoke the words that in our house are used sparingly and only when there backed with action...”I promise!”. As soon as I said it the look on Elaine’s face said it all...’now you’ve gone and done it’! So, knowing that we really did want to go, but now knowing it was Disney WORLD or bust our quest began to make the trip happen and for a reasonable price. Because as I said to the girls..”I promise!”
