Oooh 50%? Sweet. This will be our second time at Hojos. We stayed there in 2008 and stayed at peacock Suites last year because we had timeshare points to use. We were supposed to be at Desert Palms but when I saw the Hojo discount I jumped on it. I think our stroller still has a lime green mickey head on it

Be sure to reserve time for The Golden Horseshoe. It was so much fun!

Woo! My wife surprised me with a trip Jan 23-28 so we can see the Golden Horseshoe Review! We're staying at the DL hotel and I can't wait!

We really liked it. Me as a girl who likes Disneyland history and my 5 year old who hates sitting still for shows. It was such a treat. We also had a bit if extra pixie dust, we were pulled aside to sit in the front row!

I'll keep an eye out.

LGM has been on my backpack for years, and still never had an encounter.

I hope your second stay at the HoJo is fantastic.

Just made a last minute decision to splurge a little and do a split stay at Paradise Pier Hotel from the 15-18, and the La Quinta Inn and Suites 18-21.

We were originally staying at the La Quinta the entire week. I am running the Tinkerbell Half-Marathon and celebrating my sister's college graduation. I decided since the trip is a special occasion, we'd spend the extra few hundred dollars to have Early Entry on our 3 park touring days(Wed thru Fri).

I know it won't be too crowded mid-week next week, but we're early risers anyway. Anyone else gearing up for their trip next week? Any special plans?

We have reservations at Carthay Circle next Friday (18th at 1pm) for lunch and plans to get special viewing passes for World of Color. Other than that, just looking forward to visiting DL for the first time. Like others, I am a WDW veteran.

Leaving in the morning!!

Still so much to do, will I even sleep?!

Mazel · 01-13-2013, 07:57 AM

Less than a week to go and I have nothing ready. I think it's because I'm not sure what to pack. Usually by now I have the suit cases out. We have to dig them out of the attic.

Just got back from WDW on Friday and now to start thinking about my work trip to Anaheim in 11days, which means some DL time! Both parks, a couple weeks apart?! And half of the month of January spent in warm climates other than chilly Minnesota?! Good way to start out 2013 if you ask me!

We did back to back WDW & DL trips in November & it was so fun. We had about a week in between trips, which was just enough time to recover & look forward to the next trip.

Have fun!

PoohBearFriends · 01-15-2013, 07:51 AM

So excited!

Best friend just booked world of color lunch reserved seating at wine Country Trattoria. Also Blue Bayou lunch. Both are firsts.

We were debating Discover the Magic Tour but afraid the almost 12 and 14 year olds would be a little too old. Any thoughts?

jmac323 · 01-15-2013, 11:20 AM

WOW back to back WDW and DL trips? I could not even imagine. I've never been to WDW and I'm thinking that we might try next year. I have so much to learn just for that trip LOL.

We are at the 11 day countdown until we head to Fresno to stay with the inlaws the night before DL. I haven't started my packing list yet but will this weekend I'm sure!

I live in the central valley and want to give away are un-used preferred seating vouchers. They expire at the end of this month. Hoping to give away to a Californian.
