You'll be close to us (Boardwalk) with nearly the same dates too!

How cool! We have never stayed at an Epcot resort so we are super excited! Maybe we will cross paths!

My friend and I are booked for May--hooray!
May 8th-19th Pop/POR/CSR

We are staying Pop the first night, since we get in around 5:30.
Then on to the Royal Guest rooms for a few nights, and then our fav CSR.
I'm really excited about the food booths for Flower & Garden Festival.
And we have booked the Wild Africa Trek for the first time--can't wait!!

I'd like to join in on the dancing too. I am making my first trip to Walt Disney World on May 1-9.

We got off the hook pretty easily - maybe 6-7 inches which is nothing. North of the city got drilled. The big thing for us is that the huge storm surge never materialized.

Wow! I'm glad yall are ok! Down here if we get a couple of inches, the stores are out of milk and bread and everything shuts down. What are you going to do with milk and bread - a milk sandwich?

Excited to finally be in double digits. Exactly 3 months from today...Mother's Day!

 

[shelbyf31]

We are arriving Mother's Day too. So excited. I can't think of a better place to celebrate.

 

[dizneychik]

Hi! Please add us to your list! We'll be leaving our home on the 11th for check in on Mother's Day. We didn't even realize it at the time that we were planning. We are debating on where we are going to stay on the 11th. We are driving from Central Texas and want to rest once there and be ready for the 12th! Any suggestions are welcome for driving and hotel to stay in once we arrive! We are Staying at AOA LM!

I'm going to have to cancel the ressie:-( but I hate to let it go.. If someone else really wants it..

My 1st question : is it possible to switch the name and CC on the ressie?

Disney does not let you give your reservation to someone else. The most you can do is coordinate with someone so that they call when you are cancelling it but it's still not a guarantee.

May 2-8 at the Dolphin with my best friend! Just bought Disney Visa discount tickets for La Nouba!

I think there is a canceled ADR thread somewhere, iirc

I just posted this over in the Resort forum, but would like to share here as well!

My family has just booked its first Disney World vacation! We will be visiting from 5/28-6/4 and staying in the Royal Room Standard at POR. My daughter will turn 6 the week after we leave and my son will be 4. We are very excited!

 

[alhurricane]

Anybody have any clever ideas for surprising your kids with the news?

 

[gabrismom]

We are going with friends and our plan is to get the six kids together and hand them each an envelope which will contain a letter and a word. They have to put it all together and when they do it will say "we are all going together to DISNEY."
We have gone two other times with just our kids. The first time we surprised them with a little scavenger hunt with notes that contained clues all around the house. The final one was a poem my husband wrote that told them they were going.
The second time we went we told them we were flying to NY for the week. When we got to the airport we pulled them aside and acted like there was a mistake on our tickets. We asked our oldest to take a look and tell us if she saw the same thing and she then freaked when it said flight to Orlando.
I love surprising my kids. It is so much fun. Adds to the magic. When we went the first time I also made the kids little disney countdown calendars to keep in their rooms. They loved crossing off the days.
Have fun with it.

We are going May 3-11th and would love to try to coordinate to get your reservation. There are four of us and we have tried several times with no luck. Please reply if you still have it available. Thanks and enjoy your trip.
