Are we there yet????

So...we have had a very interesting 30 hours. It all stared with a very bad thunder storm when we left our home to catch our first flight. I knew as we were walking out our front door that our flight would be delayed......and boy was it!!! Our plane that would take us to Atlanta to board our flight to Rome, could not land and was diverted. What was only suppose to be a total of 11 hours of travel time turned into well over 24. We missed 2 flights out of Atlanta that would take us to Rome. Our original flight was a non stop from Atlanta. I have to give MAJOR props to Delta!!! They were able to find us a flight where my hubby and I could sit together......and only one stop in Paris. So I got an extra stamp on my passport....so that was cool. Got to make some lemonade out of all of those lemons. However this story is not over. We FINALLY arrive in Rome and my hubby's luggage does not. BOOHOO!!!!! However, the Adventure by Disney team has been AMAZING!!! From helping us with rearranging our flights to hopefully tracking down luggage. They met us at the front desk with a huge and a glass of much needed wine! So even though this travel day has not gone as planned, we had amazing welcome dinner.

ZIP TIP 54367

A few things that I would recommend as a travel professional that we have done to help make the journey a little easier...
1- Pack a carry on with at least 2-3 days worth of clothing.
2- Purchase Travel Insurance
3- Pack your positive attitude......you can't control the weather.

Just look at this amazing Rome skyline.





So even though it was not the way we planned to travel, we are here, and its beautiful!!! Follow along with me this week as I experience Adventures by Disney!!!

One of my favorite things to do at Walt Disney World during Christmas is to visit the deluxe resorts.  Each resort is decorated in it’s own unique way.  The Grand Floridian features a life sized gingerbread house in it’s lobby.  When you walk in, you can smell the gingerbread…yum!!  Here’s a time lapse video of how the magic happens at the Grand Floridian! https://youtu.be/Si2pcosZjbk
