Here's my info:
Name: Christy
Age/Kids/Job: 35, single, no kids of my own (except for the furry kind, a mini schnauzer also!), nanny to 4 wonderful kids
Location: Birmingham, AL
Where/When I want to go: WDW as often as possible.
I'm actually planning to move down there summer 2016 so I can go more. In the meantime I am planning on trips in July, December and February. Would love to try a
Disney cruise someday. (Never been on a cruise) Would also love to visit DisneyLand someday! (Never been there either) I love the special events at WDW like Flower and Garden, Food and Wine, MNSSHP (and all of the Halloween decorations) and
MVMCP (and all of the Christmas decorations).
What is your travel style (slow, moderate, fast paced): I would say moderate, but can go a little faster when necessary and love to slow down some too. So maybe a mix of all 3.
What are you trip finances like (budget, moderate, luxury): I've stayed on property once, at POR, and loved it. Would love to stay in a luxury but that likely won't ever happen. I'm ok with values and with off property as well.
Planned or laid back trip: I love to plan any kind of trip. WDW trip planning is the most fun thing ever to me. Ha. That being said, if those plans change, that's ok. I agree with others who have said that WDW does require some amount of planning if you want to actually do rides or eat at certain places.
Morning or night person: I can be either. I tend to naturally be more of a night owl, but I can get up and going early if it's for something I love, like WDW.
Favorite parks: Magic Kingdom and Epcot are tied for 1st for me.
Are you a leader or a follower (i.e. okay with someone else planning and you just tag along or vice verse): I can do both. I can be a follower if the other person or people have similar interests as me. If I don't like what others are doing I am likely to do my own thing instead of just follow along. I don't mind being the leader.
Rate these in importance (1 most important, 6 least important); Rides, food, tours, character experiences, shopping, down time:
1. Rides
2. Food
3. Downtime
4. Shopping
5. Characters
6. Tours
But they are all great!
What time of year do you most like to travel: I have been in late April, early September, late October and early December...and the weather those last 2 times mentioned was amazing. It was pretty great in April too. September was hot but doable. I strongly prefer the "cooler" months, but can handle whatever.
