Ping: Enigma (and former Enigmas)

I'm looking for some advice regarding contstruction of a riddle.

I'm surprising my girlfriend for her birthday by taking her on a trip -- she knows she needs 4 days off, but has absolutely no idea what we are doing. She constantly hassles me for hints and such, so I thought it would be kind of cool if I could put together a fairly difficult, but not unsolvable, riddle, that would give her a hint as to what we are going to be doing (going to Disneyland ).

She's a High School English teacher, and rather intelligent -- I wonder about how difficult to make the puzzle, and what would be a good starting point.

Any help would be appreciated.

Make the puzzle's conclusion multi-honed... the obvious answer must be that you are taking her to the Bunny Ranch in Nevada to have your first threesome... see if she's cool with it... if not, show her how you really meant "Disneyland" and you're off the hook...

The funny/sad thing is that she can't spell
