Amy: All I can say is WOW!!! What wonderful news and how exciting that the DISBoutiquers are going to shower you - and others - with their pixie dust. I can't wait to hear - and see - more!
And another WOW...I just realized that you leave for your trip in less than 3 weeks! I learned about your trip about the same time as a few others, and with our trip so far away - not until November 1st! - I just lost track of how fast the time was flying until YOUR trip! You must be SO excited!!!
I laughed when I saw your list. I remember on our family's first WDW trip (this is going to be the 2nd), I stayed up late, studying the guidebook and my lists as if I was cramming for finals! I liked the concept of Top 3, so I came up with ours:
MK: #1 has got to by Big Thunder Mountain Railroad, our wish kid Mark's ABSOLUTE favourite. We rode it 10 times one day on our first trip! After 4 times virtually in a row, I had to take a break! Also, Porates of the Caribbean (including the Pirate Tutorial), and Space Mountain (although this was also the scariest for my hubby because the cars are single seats, i.e. you sit 1 behind the other and Peter was holding Mark for dear life! He loved it though!)
Epcot: Test Track, Mission:Space (Green!), Soarin'. Of course, a special mention goes out to World Showcase and the Canada Pavilion, which we skipped last time but will show our patriotism and visit this time! Special mention also to Yu-Gi-Oh card shopping in Japan!
HS: Star Tours and meeting Darth Vadar. Will add Jedi Training Academy now that it is permanently there. Rock 'n Roller COaster, Lights Camera Action
AK: Expedition Everest, Safari, Primeval Whirl
And: Downtown Disney: Cirque de Soleil (fantastic - we're proud it started in Canada!), the
Lego store, Pick a Pearl
Best 3 Dining Experiences: California Grill and watching Wishes from the Observation deck, Narcoossee's and watching Wishes from the dock (getting the theme here?!?), Takeout from Wolfgang Puck Express (delicious lasagne) after a fabulous day at DTD, ending with Cirque de Soleil.
OK, now I'm all excited to get there!!!
Can't wait for your updates as your trip approaches!
