2 For The Price of 1: One Trip Done; One More to Plan!

[Camster0307]

Hi Everyone!

After just finishing up my first attempt at a trip report (link in sig.), I've decided to now tackle the task of doing my first pre-trip report! I met some really nice DISers on my TR, and quite frankly, I miss talking to you all. So I thought I'd create a new report for all of us to hang out on.

As of today, I have our next trip definitely planned: Nov.8-16th, 2008. I also have a trip tentativley planned for Feb.15-20th, 2009 - hence the title: 2 For 1! I'll be filling you all in on both trips!

Now, excuse me, while I post this link in my trip report. When I come back, I will fill you all in on the cast of characters for our Nov. trip and the plans that have been made. I'll also let you in on the surprise I have in store for my daughter regarding the potential Feb.'09 trip.

Cammie~I followed your trip report and I loved it! I was hoping you'd do a pre-trip for your next trip!

I'm in, def. subbing this one!

Hi Cammie! So glad you are starting a PTR for your upcoming trips. I really enjoyed your last report and reading all about your mother/daughter trip.

 

[babytrees]

Woohoo!! A pre-trip report!!

About the time your done with your next mother-daughter trip, I can get started on my pre-trip (a year out seems better don't you think??)

I can't wait to hear your plans. My 12 year old can out eat most everybody on a lunch/dinner buffet but I do hate paying adult prices for her. It is a little consolation that I have to do it in the real world too.

I'm in! And just make sure that DD doesn't look over your shoulder THIS time if the Feb trip is going to be a surprise!!!

I loved your TR and cant wait for the PTR to start!!

Love it!

I must say it's because of your Trip report that I changed some of our ADR's...your food descriptions and pics were awesome!

Can't wait to hear more!

Hi - glad you've come out of lurkdom (is that a word? ) Thanks for checking in! Hope we'll have fun here.

Hi Cammie! So glad you are starting a PTR for your upcoming trips. I really enjoyed your last report and reading all about your mother/daughter trip.

Thanks Michelle! I thinked I'm officially hooked on these trip reports!

Woohoo!! A pre-trip report!!

About the time your done with your next mother-daughter trip, I can get started on my pre-trip (a year out seems better don't you think??)

I can't wait to hear your plans. My 12 year old can out eat most everybody on a lunch/dinner buffet but I do hate paying adult prices for her. It is a little consolation that I have to do it in the real world too.

Hi Theresa! Glad you found me!

I had the opposite problem with my 12 yr.old; up until this year, she ate like a bird! It killed me to pay the adult buffet prices when all she ate was a few chicken nuggets, some broccoli, and a dollop of mac & cheese or mashed potatoes. But this year, I noticed she was loading up her plate more and more, and would have no problem finishing the adult portions at the TS meals we had!

And, I say - start that pre-trip whenever you want. It's never too early to start talking about Disney trips!

I'm in! And just make sure that DD doesn't look over your shoulder THIS time if the Feb trip is going to be a surprise!!!

You know I secretly want her to find out because I can't stand not talking about it with her! No, but seriously, I'm going to try to keep it a secret until, at least, our Nov. trip is done! That's one of the reasons I'm doing this ptr - you guys will be my support group and help keep my mouth shut!

I loved your TR and cant wait for the PTR to start!!

Thanks! I'm glad you followed me over!

Hey woman - that's what happens when you disappear for a few months! Just make sure you stick around for awhile.

I must say it's because of your Trip report that I changed some of our ADR's...your food descriptions and pics were awesome!

Can't wait to hear more!

Oh no - the pressure! I hope you enjoy your meals as much as we did. I really go into Disney dining with low expectations; I'm just so darn happy to be there, I usually find something to like about any meal. (unless, of course, it makes me sick - and THAT has yet to happen!) There are very few places I WON'T go back to again though - if you have any questions, let me know.

Cammie, you could get Natalie over on the DISign boards to personalize a Disney invitation for DD. It would make a great Christmas present!!!!!

I do the same thing with dining at disney...the only meal we have been underwhelmed at was our lunch at Rose & Crown....it just wasn't very good and we all just felt "off" that entire day (before and after).

Right now my pre-trip would be so boring....I am hoping Cassidy decides early on which college she wants to go to so I know when to have the vacation.

Hey Dawn - glad you came over! And, I can't wait to introduce everyone to my oldest - she's sassy and has got attitude; that's why she's a big Tink fan!

Cammie, you could get Natalie over on the DISign boards to personalize a Disney invitation for DD. It would make a great Christmas present!!!!!

You expect me to keep quiet until Christmas?

I'm so excited I've gotten so many readers so far!

I promise to get a post up by tomorrow morning with all the info. for our Nov. trip. My oldest has a school musical tonite; and although I've kept her home this past week to recover from surgery, we're going in tonite for the show so she can be a part of it. She goes to a wonderful private program on the campus of Boston College and the staff does such a wonderful job creating "typical" school experiences for the kids.

So.......stay tuned; more to come!

Count me in. I enjoyed your Trip Report and can't wait to share in the fun of this Pre-TR

 

[fenfur]

YAY!!! I enjoyed your last TR and am glad to be in on this one. Hmmmm maybe I will do a TR for my trip, we'll see.... I too have that fear of yours (yours is unfounded of course) that nobody will read it, lol.
