Two years ago, after we (me, wife, two year old son) came back from Disney World, we knew we wanted to go again. Well, we're checking into our cabin in 40 days from today...and we won't be alone. We actually have 3 cabins booked. The three of us in one cabin, mother-in-law and father-in-law in the second cabin and my wife's sister and family (husband, two kids) in the third cabin. In total, we have 3 cabins and 9 people. There is actually a fourth cabin booked by relatives of my wife's sister's husband, but I don't know much else about that group.
My wife's sister has twins, a boy and a girl. They actually share the same birthday as our own son. SIL gave birth just a few hours after my DW. Since they live in NH and we live in CA, the cousins don't get to see each other very often. I'm really looking forward to seeing their interactions with each other and with the parks. They will all have turned 4 about a week before the trip, so they are at a good age to take everything in. One of the reasons we decided to stay at FW was because of all the open space outside for everyone to play while the adults relax. It will be our first time at the Fort.
The dining arrangements are a little tricky. I had to book early to have a shot at getting reservations for a group of 9. It's going to be a busy week, and I think I may have overdone it a bit.
Monday - Chef's Table at Victoria and Albert's for wife and I.
Wednesday - Breakfast at Chef Mickey's for 9.
Thursday - Mickey's Backyard BBQ for 9.
Friday - Lunch at Crystal Palace for 9.
Saturday - Dinner at Garden Grill for 3.
Sunday - Lunch at Hollywood & Vine for 3.
I still can't believe that 140 days ago I was up at 4:30am making these dining reservations. Now, we have 40 days to go and although I can't wait to get there, I must admit I'm a little nervous about everything working out with the 3 families.
