Dad's Tips For Surviving.......Loving A Disney Vacation
Are you one of those dad’s that hates taking your family to
Disney for vacation? Your idea of vacation is not lugging 12 bags in heat
across a lot of pavement only to rush to a ride to stand in line! All the while
your wife is shopping like you are a millionaire and your children are whining
because, well because they can!
There is a book you must read! “Ears of Steel: The Real
Man’s Guide to Walt Disney World,” by Bart Scott gives you tips on how to not
only survive the trip but how to have the best vacation of your life!!
I had the pleasure of hearing him speak last October in Orlando and fell in love
with his humor and uncanny way of telling men that you too can survive a trip
to Disney World! Scott says he wrote the book for the "football watching,
beer-guzzling couch potatoes" who would rather relax in a recliner with a
cold one and a sporting event on TV than spend hours in the hot sun walking
around theme parks.
AWESOME video of Bart explaining his tips!
His FIRST TIP:
Always stay on property! Yes you can find a simple room off property cheaper
but the benefits far outweigh any savings you might initially think you will be
getting!
SECOND TIP: take
your trip in the fall! The weather is better, the kids are back in school and
the lines are so much shorter.
THIRD TIP: don’t
stress over the money! Easier said than done right? He equates to traveling to Hawaii, you get off the
plane they give you a flower necklace and you hand them your wallet! Disney
does deliver the value. You don’t exactly hand them your wallet but planning
ahead and doing as much before you go as possible will make your trip so much
more enjoyable!
FOURTH TIP: and
of course the most important, use an Authorized Disney Vacation Planner because
most of us are insane Disney nuts! A Disney Planner can help when things go
awry, which you plan not to happen but it’s human nature and could certainly
happen with the best of planning!
FIFTH TIP: learn
the My Disney Experience app! Make sure you have all of your reservations
linked, your travel planner has your information linked with theirs so they can
help while you are there. Play around with the app before you go so that you
are ready and can do it walking with 10s of 1,000s of other people reading
their smartphone! Prepare!!
Bart’s book is extremely easy and helpful! His ideas are
geared towards men who would rather sit at home watching the ballgame but can
apply to anyone headed to the World! You can find it on Amazon and other online
book retailers! Get yours today and start enjoying Walt Disney World the way I
do!!
Happy Planning!
