Three Generation Trip to the World Sept/Oct 2013 - The DIS Discussion Forums

Twin Dad · 09-12-2012, 10:39 PM

This is my first trip report of any kind so please be gentle.

DW and I will be taking our twins down to WDW next fall. We plan on arriving on September 30th and leaving around the 9th. This will be a special trip. The date comes just before our 10 year anniversary and the twin's 5 year birthday. Both of our mothers will be coming with as well. We plan on staying at AoA Cars. We haven't booked yet because our friend/travel agent had lost her job just before we were going to book. We will book once she finds a new agency. That is all I have for now. I plan on updating this thread as our trip gets closer.

DS and I are staying at AoA with some friends in November! I hope you all have a great time. Have fun celebrating all of the special days together!

One year out. We're starting to put together a list of restaurants we want to go to and which parks we want to visit in order.

Right now we are patiently waiting on a local airline to post their September and October airfares. My parents have offered to use their timeshare so we will do a split vacation between on and off site. Still waiting for park hours to get posted. We have our final cut for character meals. We are planning Chef Mickey's, CRT, and Hollywood & Vine

nice. chef mickey's is classic. CRT for the princesses. And Hollywood and Vine we went to for the first time last year. We loved it. One of our favorites now. Going back this summer. I wonder if they'll be adding Sophia or Doc McStuffins to that lineup.

I haven't updated the thread in awhile because things were really in flux with plans. We are now going October 14th through 26th. The plan is to fly in now instead of driving. We'll be staying at AoA Cars from the 14th to 19th then a time share exchange for the rest of the stay.

Plans for now are:
14th: Land and hang out at the pool.
15th: MK with ADRs at BBB at 8:30 and CRT at 10.
16th: EPCOT with ADR at Teppan Edo at 3:20
17th: AK
18th: MNSSHP
19th: Switch resorts. Anniversary dinner for me and DW
20th: Cape Canaveral
21st: HS with ADT at H&V at 1:45
22nd: IoA
23rd: Do whichever park the kids want again
24th: Day of rest.
25th: MK (full commando day)
26th: Fly home
