Well, I know it's ambitious, but I'm apparently planning a trip for 9(possibly only 8) for September 2018. My cousins, some of their significant others, my bro, and I are all going just a big ol' "Cousin Trip" for a week. It was all on a whim that some of us were in
Disneyland together and came up with the conclusion that it needed to happen. Most have never been, and well as we've gotten older it's harder and harder to find time to hang out.
We're in the very early stages of planning, and currently figuring out who wants to go. We're all in our mid-late 20s except my youngest cousin who will be 17 around the time of the trip. With me being a Disneyland Resort Cast Member, the discounts are significant enough to make staying on property an option. I'm comparing prices for 2017 as a reference point, and optimistically geusstimating that it'll cost a little bit more for 2018 prices(I never knew there were so many room options!).
While three rooms at a value resort would seem like the obvious choice; I'm realizing already that for just a bit more(when you split it 8-9 ways, it seems even smaller), 2-bedroom villas, cabins, suites, and such are within reach. I know there's a lot more that needs to be figured out, like: flights(luckily we'd all be able to leave from LAX), dining plan(ah, the discounts...), reservations (mmmmm....food), and just the sheer fact that we're having so many people in our group.
It's a big endeavor. Some love, trust, and maybe some pixie dust(discounts too!) are bound to make this trip extra special...
