Snowmagedden round 1 hit Atlanta the afternoon and evening before we were to leave for Disney. With major hills getting into our neighborhood, dad took the minivan home (front wheel drive rocked in the storm) to pack up and we all spent the night at Mimi's house. We woke up really early to get a jump on the trip with the hopes that the roads would be empty...
We spend a ridiculously long time stuck on 285 trying to get out of town. We ended up using all the tricks in our book: sweet talking truck drivers, off roading and hitting up back roads to maneuver around some major traffic. It was an incredibly long day but the boys did GREAT in car. And about 14 hours after we started our 7 hour trip, we arrived at Disney(7 hours to literally go 13 miles)!
We had kept the trip a secret from the boys so they had no idea where we were going. They were incredibly excited once we arrived at Disney and they were able to stretch their legs!
After a quick dinner and greetings with some additional surprise vacation participants... Grandma and Grandpa, we were all off to bed!
