Croaker24 XPCan’t always make it to Disney so we often settle for another location. Even if you did make it to Disney this year chances are you took a break somewhere else. Share your destinations!
While i’ve had lots of Travel this year (hah, i’m a broken record on this) i would have to say the best trip in 2017 so far other than Disney was last week when my wife and I took our motorcycles through Yellowstone! the winding roads and open feeling is awesome, one of the most memorable moments was when we were hiking the rim of the canyon (Yellowstone river canyon) a pair of F22’s buzzed through!First one was extremely low, second one was a higher but just as impressive. I have a video on Facebook. (if you want to friend me, just send me a request with your D-Cot name! Sam Knight, Service First Insurance, Casper Wyoming)
August 31, 2017 at 12:52 pm #46974Every year we go to Myrtle Beach for a week in October. Other than that, Disney is my vacation spot of choice.
August 31, 2017 at 1:09 pm #46980Went to Kansas City to visit my best friend for a few days.
August 31, 2017 at 1:16 pm #46984January we went to NYC
May we went to Savannah, GA.
June we went to Madeira Beach, FL.
This weekend we are going to WDW
December we are going on a Norwegian Cruise for the week of Christmas!August 31, 2017 at 1:38 pm #46988We went to Florida without WDW! I know, crazy right? Actually all four of us have said it was the best vacation without WDW, really even better! Another right? Now, it did involve “Disney” in that we stayed at Vero Beach for a couple nights but the rest wasn’t. I have a trip report in Trip Planning & Reports in the Travel section of the forums so I won’t bore you with all the details here. I don’t know if it was seeing @steve and @Chelle and the family and spending most of the day with them at their house, the sea turtle nesting while we were at Vero Beach and helping the biologist dig down and find the eggs, all of us falling in love with Vero Beach, our son-in-law falling in love with St. Augustine as much as we love it, or getting to meet @kcboston and her family on the way back, or just a combination of everything but it really was even better than WDW.
August 31, 2017 at 2:37 pm #47003Living in Orlando, I have way too many opportunities to do fun things.
Jan- Citywalk. Went to the Toothsome Chocolate Factory for the first time.
Feb – Fun Spot America. Very unimpressed. :|
June – Week long trip in Denver for my brother’s wedding and other shenanigans like Red Rocks Amphitheater. :mickey:
So far, that’s besides Disney. We visit too much with my dad driving monorails.We also have plans to try and get out to SeaWorld this year because my dad’s in the Military and if you’re military, you get 4 free admissions to either SeaWorld or Busch Gardens, so we interchange parks each year.
August 31, 2017 at 3:14 pm #47007Before I discovered the magic of the Disney parks, my families vacation spot of choice was Las Vegas. As a kid it got very boring very fast

Been to NYC a bunch of times…. only a 1.5 hr car ride away.September 1, 2017 at 10:22 am #47092
bexruns374 XPWe like to go camping. My favorite place is Yosemite and the boyfriend would probably pick Pine Flat Lake, which is where we’re going next weekend. It’s about 3.5 hours away from us so it’s not too bad. This will be our 4th time this year
September 1, 2017 at 10:59 am #47104This is/was a very Disney heavy year When you have those APs, you want to get your money worth!
We are going to Charleston SC for a night this weekend.
I’m going on a girls weekend next weekend in Charlotte (I don’t go into the city much )
Might try to sneak a weekend in at HHI or Myrtle BeachAlthough we are doing 2 nights at DLP in November, we are touring Paris and the Normandy region in France the rest of the trip

RIDisneyPinGuy182 XPWe just spent a couple of days up in New Hampshire with the kids, last week. We took them to Story Land, the kids had a blast. I was impressed with the cleanliness of the park and friendliness of the staff. Our character dinner was disappointing food-wise, but the characters were awesome (Cinderella clued us in on an insider secret that came in handy the next day). Overall a good time
