2 Weeks to go

In two weeks we leave for vacation. But this weekend is going to be busy. Since we will be in Florida for nearly two weeks, we decided to ship our summer clothes to Florida. So this weekend is going to be spent organizing and packing. According to FedEx, we need to ship the box on Monday to make sure it is waiting for us at the hotel when we arrive.

We all know about holiday traditions. But did you know our family has some vacation traditions related to Disney World? Everytime we visit our first park is always the Magic Kingdom. It does not matter what time we arrive or when the park closes. If we can get in the gate, we're there. Next, our first sit down meal is at Tony's on Main Street. I'm not sure how this tradition got started but it goes back before Meghan was born.

Tony's is just inside the park right next to the train station. In a way, it provides a nice transition from the normal world to Disney. We arrive and then sit down for a meal, Disney style. During our meal, we have a chance to find out what's happening at the parks and plan. All too soon, and yet not soon enough our meal is over and it is time to leave Lady and the Tramp for the rest of Disney World.

We do have other family traditions... more about that another day.
