Your plans look great! Hope you get to eat at Celebration Town Tavern. I want to hear all about it since we missed it!
I went back and checked the park hours - they are longer!
DH and I had a brief discussion about possibly getting park hoppers last night. That turned into possibly getting APs and changing our spring break trip to Hilton Head back to WDW instead. Notice I said "brief" discussion? Yeah, I didn't really want to spend that much more $$, and he got up this morning and said, "I really don't want to go to WDW during spring break. It's too crowded" So we will just enjoy our expanded park hours, spend more time at the pool and stick to our original plan! Speaking of which, have I shared that with you yet? No, well than I shall do so!
Arrival Saturday 10/13 evening.
Check into AKV - Jambo! Our room should be ready because there's no way we'll get there before 5 p.m.!
Hang out at resort, have a visit from SIL who will be coming off a cruise at Port Canaveral that day.
Sun 10/14 - AK
Dinner at Ohana
Fireworks from Poly beach
Mon 10/15 - Epcot - Food and Wine baby!!!
Tues 10/16 - Kona breakfast
If good weather - go to Celebration, eat at Town Tavern
MNSSHP!!!
Wed 10/17 - sleep in a bit - either MK or DHS? Who knows? Maybe a water park if these old tickets someone gave us still have that left on them. Nothing set in stone park-wise.
Dinner at Boma later - we figure we have to pack up our stuff to move the next day.
Thurs 10/18 move to OKW (1BR - doing laundry!)
Take the boat to DTD and do a little shopping
DISMEET at Epcot in the afternoon, probably just stay at Epcot and hit some more F&W!
Fri 10/19 - probably sleep in (which never means much to us - we tend to wake early anyway) and spend our last day at MK
Sat 10/20 - pack up and hit the road.
We don't have any set things we "have" to do other than those listed. We plan to play it by ear, try to take it slow and relax and enjoy. I have a list of things to remember, like things I might want to shop for, and some rides/attractions I'd like to do, but that's it. We're going to just focus on doing the things we want to do most.
I hope we get to meet lots of our DIS friends and if you're there and you see us, you BETTER come say hi or I will be offended!
Thanks! I sure hope we get there too! I'll let you know how it is!Your plans look great! Hope you get to eat at Celebration Town Tavern. I want to hear all about it since we missed it!
Thanks! I hope we cross paths!Your plans look great!
Thanks Shawna! I hope it all goes smoothly!Love your plans! I agree that y'all need to relax more this trip...especially coming off the DLP whirlwind trip!! I have our days pretty much planned out as far as what park on which day, but once we get to our park we just do whatever. Of course, we aim for Toy Story MM right off at Hollywood, but thats about it....I hope you can use your Water Park pass..I think that would be fun!
You have to go back and read carefully - we are going to the party on the 16th. Paige is going to be Marie, you are right on that one!I need to do that this weekend and update any changes
I was pretty excited to see longer hours - some nights have 2 showings of Fantasmic! Not sure if we'd go anyway, but...
Did you see the special DVC AP prices through the end of the month? It's an amazing deal. I'm bummed I already bought mine but even with the regular DVC discount it was a good deal and a wash for me versus hoppers. Obviously it wouldn't be for base tickets but you may want to compare if you didn't.
I did, that's part of what we were talking about doing. I should stop and reconsider the option of not activating it for a while. We just don't have any definite plans to return to WDW in the next year or two. We're planning Hilton Head, Alaskan cruise, and DL/Aulani.
Plans look good. I will send you pixie dust for your room at Jambo. What category are you in? Not to spoil things but we had AMAZING pixie dust with our standard 1B.
Thanks! We are doing a studio/savannah view. We had that when we stayed there in March 2011. I'll be looking forward to your report on the 1BR.
YAY for the DISmeet!
Are you guys skipping the party? For some reason I thought you were going on the 18th too (and that Paige was going to be Marie?)
11 days for us, only 8 for you!
Don't you love how one discussion just leads into another and then another. I have to say, though. I would think those DVC premium APs might be pretty attractive in your case? Have you given any thought to buying them for the family, even if you don't activate them until sometime in 2013?
I do think you are going to love HHI, especially over spring break. It's probably going to be just the right amount of crowded.
Great plans. I am really looking forward to the DIS meet!
Oh - and I hope your water park passes work.
So cool that you got to tour Stonehedge. It really looks very neat. I would love to do that someday.
And Salisbury is just the cutest town - so European. That cathedral is absolutely amazing. Your pictures are great. Thanks so much for the fabulous tour.
Thanks! We really enjoyed that day. I was so appreciative that Jenny was willing to take us since she'd been so many times before with other guests. We had a lot of fun and I enjoyed spending time with her since she had to work most of the time we were there. She's my oldest friend that I still see regularly. We've known each other since 4th grade.what a fun update! I would love to see Stonehenge someday, it did look cold and windy though, brr!
Salisbury is adorable, just adorable. What a fun day! I was just having a conversation, fond memory, about an English pub last night. Now neat that your girls got to experience one like the Royal Standard.
I knew you'd like it Shawna! You will need to get to England and spend some quality time there!Ok, another place on my Bucket List,...that pub!!! How cool is that?!!! I am gonna need 6 months to see all the things I want to!!!! I don't think I realized that Paige's hair has gotten so long!
