Hi All!
As many of you might know, our family is currently taking care of my father-in-law, who is dying from pancreatic cancer. He is in his last weeks now, and the previous 3 months have been incredibly stressful and sad.
I had been planning to return to WDW this November, but time got away form me, and I literally forgot to plan. (That should show you how bad things are!!)
Well, last night I just did it. I planned the trip in one night, sort of a spontaneous moment....
I am not telling the family anything, as of right now, no one will really want to hear it. So I have to keep it secret. Amidst the sadness and exhaustion, it is my shining light that, I hope will help heal and return our family to the world of life.
So , I figure to surprise them the night before we leave. I did this once before for our children, but this time I will surprise the wife, who is in a terrible place right now.
So , I share my secret with you DIS, so I have a place to be excited and try to hold on to the glimmer down the road.
I hope a few of you might have some suggestions on things I might plan to make this trip extra special. I have been trying my best to make ressies at a few restaurants we like, the only one I cannot seem to get is BOG, (no surprise there).
Anything I might do to make this one unforgettable?
Here's the details so far.
POLY NOVEMBER 11-17.
I only have a few days planned that week.
MK= Veterans day 11th and the 13th (nightmare on Vets day at MK??)
HS the 9th (the following are because F&W is at Epcot this weekend)
Ak the 10th
EP = 12th
I have no idea which park to visit the other days...
Need further suggestions or changes to this schedule, as my usual DIS brain is not functioning.....what am I forgetting?

Thanks you guys, DIS has always been the best....
