Spring Break at Walt Disney World!!!
Disney's Animal Kingdom Villas ~ Kidani Village
Hey everyone! Welcome to my LIVE trip report! Disney's Animal Kingdom Villas ~ Kidani Village
I am so crazy excited for this vacation I can't even tell you!!!!! We have had a long, horrible, cold, snowy winter and the countdown to this trip has been the shining light at the end of the tunnel. Even now as the snow is melting and temperatures are warming, everything around us is brown and muddy. I can't wait to see the beautiful palm trees and flowers.... ahhhhh
Now let's see, getting down to the nitty gritty. The plans are to spend 7 nights in a one-bedroom villa at Kidani. Room only reservation. We are annual passholders. No dining plan. Renting a car, so no Magical Express. I've got several ADRs booked and I'm in the process now of trying to figure out which ones to keep and which to cancel. It's so hard to decide! I'm glad Disney has instituted the 24-hour cancelation policy because it forces me to get off the fence and commit. Right now we have: Crystal Palace, Be Our Guest(a breakfast and a lunch), Ohana, 50's Prime Time, Sci-fi Dine-in, Trattoria al Forno (never eaten there before), Boma, Tusker House, Via Napoli, Mama Melrose(Fantasmic package), and Narcoosee's. I will try to finish the decision by tomorrow so I won't have to remember to cancel while we're down there. Anyone have any thoughts about which to definitely keep?? All opinions welcome!
Special events.... we will definitely spend time at Epcot's Flower & Garden Festival as well as the Flower Power concert series. Or I guess I should say "Garden Rocks" now that they've changed the name. Why is Disney always changing the names of things??? Don't they know it confuses us old folks??
Starship will be performing on 3/27 and I'm super excited for that!
Almost forgot to mention, Tuesday is my birthday!!!! I am so lucky that our spring break is always over my birthday every year. I love wearing my birthday button and feeling the special Disney love everywhere we go. It makes turning 42 seem not too horrible.
Well, I better get this posted and get back to packing! Two days left and time is starting to go fast!! If you have questions or comments I welcome them anytime. Make sure you follow the thread for updates, I'm so happy to have you along with us!!!
