How do you count down the days?

[mickeystoontown]

My husband thinks I am totally nuts on how I count how many days it is until our next Walt Disney World vacation.

I don't count today, well...because it's already here. And, I don't count the day we leave, well...because we leave that day. I only count the days in between. So, by my calculations, it's 120 days until our next Walt Disney World vacation! My husband says it's 122 but, by golly, I say it's 120!

Who else counts the same way I do?

I'd say the easiest way to count the days would be backwards. :rotfl2:

Yikes. :lmao: Counting days is not that bad, it keeps your excitement in a high mode. :thumbsup2

Have a nice and safe trip coming. :)

I count the day we leave but not today, so in accordance to the days on your original post I'd say 121 days. :rotfl:

I dont count today or the day we leave either but when I got a ticker countdown thing it told me how many days left (dont know how they count) so I just go with that.

On my calendar at work though I didnt count the day we leave and then I drew Mickeys on every day I would be gone :D

LOVE IT!!

Im going to be either so sad the entire month of March when I get back seeing those Mickeys as in the past or so happy just remembering the experience!!

When I first got my ticker, I put in the day that we check in to Pop. But when I saw it, I knew it was wrong according to the way that I count.:p Since our drive takes a day and a half, I went back and changed my ticker to the day before we actually drive out of our driveway. (Remember, I don't count the day we leave or the day we arrive.:rotfl: )

I start with the day we fly out, and let the countdown ticker do the rest :) As long as we leave on that day, it's ok with me...

We count from the day we leave, we use a little Mickey countdown calendar :goodvibes

well the kids know nothing about this trip so my count down is my ticker here.

When it comes to general stuff like holiday I try not to explain it to the boys they get all confused and mad. LOL If it's in the morning I count that day afternoon not really and I never count the actual day. Like if I counted now till St Valentines day it would be 3 days (Wed, Thur and Fri)

How fun that you have a surprise trip planned. We surprised our 11 year old with a trip to WDW this past August. He had no idea where we were going until we were about 30 miles from Disney World.

I agree that it's just 3 days to Valentines Day!
