Port Canaveral Excursion

Even though we have a long time to go for our cruise, I always believe to start early.  Get as much information as I can and trying to make it better.  Today we are at the 591 day mark.  I know, long time..  But it is coming, got to get ready.

One of excursions on the cruise we are going to Port Canaveral, Fl to take a trip to Walt DisneyWorld.  If we go with Carnival package, for 4 people would cost roughly 616 bucks.  That is for Disney tickets and shuttle back and forth. (That is 159 for 3 adults and 139 for one child)  So I decided to go another route.  If I buy the tickets from Disney for the day it would be 334 for just tickets.  If I rent a car, that is roughly 50 bucks and then another 14 bucks for parking at Disney.  That is roughly 400 bucks.  Maybe another 20 for gas.  A 200 dollar savings.  I also found out that at work we have a discounted program at Enterprise so now I can upgrade to a larger car.  Which I think is a good idea.  If I find more options on saving money, I would certainly consider those.  We will see.

First Post

I have been getting into the mood for traveling so I thought I would start a blog on the subject.  I think this blog will be for anythig special I do, like going out of state or what not.  We have a cruise come April of 2013 so I was thinking this would help me get my thoughts together.  We have so much to do and I think this will help. We are heading off on the Carnival Pride(pic below) so I certainly will have to get going on that.  Also wanted to say that I got my paperwork done for my passport.  Now, I already have a passport card but we decided that if something bad goes on and we can't get back on the ship, then we are screwed.  So we decided to just get regular passports.
