Disney's Caribbean Beach Resort

Once upon a time, I, a teacher, had spent my entire summer in grad school and teacher professional development workshops. Finishing the last of my commitments with just two weeks of summer left, we embarked on a truly last minute trip to Walt Disney World in July 2016. Yes, July. In Florida. I had reservations on speaker with Stitchy in the back seat of the car while checking on possible resorts, and he perked up at the mention of the (now retired) pirate rooms at Disney’s Caribbean Beach Resort. And, alas, our first trip to Caribbean Beach was booked!
