Weekend of Escapism at Disney

In one week my wife, daughter, and I will be heading over to WDW for our annual birth-a-versary celebration (wedding anniversary and daughter's birthday is Oct 13th). Every year, for the past four, we have spent this event on Disney property. This time we will be returning to the Caribbean Beach resort (this was our first Disney resort together back in 2006).

On the docket will be walk around dinner at the EPCOT food and wine festival, a day at the resort pools, dinner at one of our favorite restaurants (the Liberty Tree), and a special halloween themed haunted horsecarriage ride at the Fort Wilderness (featuring the headless horseman). This is always my favorite time to visit WDW, as the temperature finally starts to drop and the parks are decorated for fall/halloween. It probably doesn't hurt my birthday is right around the corner too.
