I’m going to Disney World!

By table4five | March 20, 2008

I was going to keep it a surprise, but I can’t wait any longer-I’m going to Disney World next month! The wonderful folks at BSM Media have invited me to a special Mom Blogger Mixer, all expenses paid, with the agenda created specifically for our group to learn about all things Disney!

I thought I had been there before but I remembered that it was DisneyLAND, in California, where I have been twice. My Dad says they took us to DisneyWorld when we were kids, but I have absolutely no memory of it. So I am so excited to see what is in store for me!

    Oooh, how exciting!! And without kids to keep track of? Awesome! :)

    Hope you had more fun then I did. I broke my finger there and spent night in the hospital and I didn’t have any real fun because it was expensive and there was nothing to do.

    How fun! How exciting for you! The place is huge! Literally a WORLD - I was so shocked when we went that you had to drive to get anywhere around the parks. Thanks for being a good role model.

    I much prefer the Disney-Epcot combo in Florida to the California experience. The weather is generally a but warmer in Florida, the parks seem much larger and varied as well.

    We haven’t made it to Eurodisney to compare, but hope to one day.

    Up in the Highlands of Scotland, there’s nothing to compare. We’d be forced to drive 8 or 12 hours south to find something even similar (though a much smaller scale).

    Hope you enjoy and have lots to write about as a result of your trip!

    Have a great trip!!!! Don’t forget business/blog cards! ;)

    Wow, I absolutely LOVE Disney World. Hubby and I went on our honeymoon almost 7 years ago. We had a wonderful time and hope to go back again soon. I have been there so many times. I remember when there was no EPCOT or Disney Studios or Animal Kingdom. It has been an amazing ride watching the Florida dream turn into a reality.

    Have a wonderful trip :)

    Lanna-Awesome for me, a huge bummer for the boys :)

  14. table4five - 03/21/2008 at 12:36 pm

    Jenny-Note to self: do not break finger! I’m sorry to hear that happened to you ;(

  15. table4five - 03/21/2008 at 12:39 pm

    Nanci-Thank you! They are keeping the agenda a surprise, so I don’t know how many of the parks we will be visiting. I do know that when I was there as a kid, Epcot had not yet been built, so I would like to go there if possible.

  16. table4five - 03/21/2008 at 12:41 pm

    Janice-The trip is an event for BSM Media, who sponsored the Land’s End diaper bag giveaway I did on MomReviews. I met a rep from BSM media at BlogHer last year. So it was really just luck and my being a big schmoozer at BlogHer :)

  17. homemom3 - 03/21/2008 at 1:32 pm

    Hey, don’t knock it, it’s because you are a great blogger. :) Right? :) This is awesome, in a way you are being rewarded for a job well done, every mommy needs a break. Don’t we?

    Homemom-My kids can’t believe I’m going to Disney without them, so I’ll have to buy LOTS of souvenirs to make up for it :)

  36. table4five - 03/23/2008 at 11:30 am

    Sadie-don’t do that! lol I highly recommend coming to BlogHer this summer and handing out a business card to every single person there, which is what I did last year, and it really opened a lot of doors for me. Hard work, but it paid off!

  37. Jennifer, Snapshot - 03/23/2008 at 12:10 pm

    Hi–I’m going to (through my affiliation with 5MinutesforMom. I can’t wait. I am like you–I went to DisneyLand as a young teen and DisneyWorld as a child. Can’t wait!

    And I do know that our first night’s dinner is Epcot. I haven’t been there either.

  38. table4five - 03/23/2008 at 2:19 pm

    Fenicle-Thanks! Are you planning to go to BlogHer this year? I’m trying my hardest, scraping together donations and trying to drum up some paid blog work, so if you are going, hopefully you’ll see me there!

  39. table4five - 03/23/2008 at 9:04 pm

    Lynne-Thank you! Now I just have to tackle my fear of not having the right clothes, of looking fat in all the photos, of talking too much, etc. etc. :)

  40. Just Pure Lovely - 03/25/2008 at 5:27 pm

    Hey! I’m going with you. I’m trying to visit everyone on the LadyBug list. :) It’ll be great to meet you!

  41. table4five - 03/25/2008 at 11:27 pm

    Val-No, it’s just me going. It’s over a weekend, so my husband just has to take that Friday off, and his job allows him to work from home when necessary. So I have nothing to worry about! (Except missing my kids, of course)

  42. table4five - 03/25/2008 at 11:34 pm

    Lori, thank you for stopping by! I’ll see you next month at DisneyWorld!

  43. Mommy Daddy Blog - 04/4/2008 at 2:48 am

    I know I’m late, I’m trying not to fall out on the floor and throw a tantrum, lol. I can’t wait to stalk your flickr after the trip!
