My December Trip Report-Part 1

Alyssa Season 1

Hello there!

I always find trip reports to be so informative-I learn so much from listening to others' trips so every time I go I will be sure to record updates throughout my days!

This trip I traveled with my immediate family: my husband Paul and our three children-twins Zac & Beau (4) and Luke (2). We are staying at Orange Lake Resort (more info below) from December 1-13th. Since we went for two weeks, I split up my Trip Report into 2 parts. Part 1 is December 1-8, 2024. Part 2 will pick up on the 8th and go to the 13th-our departure day.

We typically stay at Orange Lake Resort linked here. My in-laws and my husband and I are owners but you don't have to own to stay here. Often we rent weeks as well! We own a 2-bedroom villa and like it for long trips vs on property since it's so roomy, has in-room laundry, a full kitchen, dining room, two bedrooms and two full bathrooms. It has plenty of storage so for our large family we like this option for most stays.

We also attended the Very Merry Christmas Party which was our first time! We very much enjoyed it!

I hope you enjoy!

Disney World can be very overwhelming, but it my mission to compartmentalize and break each aspect down into manageable parts making planning and understanding Walt Disney World a breeze.
