March 12, 2024Matt's runDisney and extended family trip - PREP 400
Matt's late February trip to Disney World that included Princess weekend for runDisney was "amazing, beautiful weather, mix of family and friends, and a mix of 'go' and 'hold back.'" Listen as he shares about new experiences and seeing familiar attractions through his 4-year-old daughter's eyes. Financials: Hotel $4700 (with 40% cast member friend and family discount) Flight: $950 Rental Car: $450 (includes car seat rental) Food: approximate $700 Matt redeemed Disney Visa points to help offset the cost of the hotel, and used gift cards that he accumulated to help with meals and souvenirs. The costs above are totals before discounts. Actual out-of-pocket dollars spent for food and hotel were less because of the discounted gift cards. Post trip begins: At an hour Links:
