Are you from Massachusetts?

[shellybelly72]

I live in ct now. but I grew up in Westport...I still drive up there 1x a month to visit family

Any of you New Englanders dare to drive to WDW? DH and I are thinking about it for our Dec 08 trip. We were going to rent a car anyways for the week. Adding on those few extra driving days would be cheaper than plane tickets.

My sister just drove up to MA. from florida. I can't recall if she stopped in Virginia or NC. She said it wasn't too bad. Her advice was to take plenty of potty stops and bring plenty of snacks & water!
She drove with her DH,DD5 & DS15

I have driven down a couple times in a camper and stayed at Fort Wilderness. It was almost exactly 24 hours of driving, we drove straight there, no stopping. You could make much better time in a car.

Cape Cod Native here! Pirates4me, I'm your neighbor in Brewster (or as we New Englanders would pronouce it "Brewsta").

We just went to WDW in November, and are going back again this November after receiving a 40% discount code in the mail. We would have waited until next year if we hadn't gotten the discount. I'm psyched.....

How cool! I am very jealous of your upcoming trip (my DS would be too!). It's so cold this am that thoughts of crossing the Seven Seas Lagoon and seeing the castle rising up is just killing me! Have fun on your trip!

Boston based DIS newcomer, but longtime WDW fan. Good to see so many Pats and Sox logos on DIS.. combines some of my favorite things - WDW and Boston sports teams.

Depends on what you mean by "by Worcester" Worcester is about 2 hours away. See....I told you you wouldn't know it! Really, it's itty-bitty. Pretty, but pretty small, also.

charlton is out by worcester, maybe thats what you're thinking.

i'm from baldwinville...which is also itty bitty and along route 2
