Thanks, Ears4all, my first reply!!
As I said, sadly I'm a complete rabbit on the Boards, but will try to work out 'linking'.
Although a novice to WDW, we have already sampled (more than once) DLP as a family, including once when eldest DS(then 22) arrived Independantly and completely unknown to me and booked his own room when we celebrated my BD! First I knew was when he used the house phone to wish me Happy Returns, then arrived at the room door 2 mins later (having apologised for not being there!). Put me in my place, especially as he flew, and we had driven down
DW and I have been haunting the DIS boards since May, and when the tickets arrived last week have started planning for real, and using printer ink and paper like there is no tomorrow, hoping to maximise our experience (and justify the higk cost of the UK transfer). Just wildly envious of those who live a few short hours from the magic, and can plan multiple yearly trips. Sadly not very practical for us, airfares and limited budgets etc.
Initial plans to 'hit the parks' include EMH on the Sat at AK, as hopefully the rest of the world will have had a late night on the 4th, and we shall doubtless be up early due to time changes & body clocks, etc, then a break (TL?) and the evening shows at MK to ensure we feel part of the magic.
Sunday maybe take a break to recover, then onwards and upwards (Infinity and beyond?) as we become more adjusted to the ways of the US and the parks. Will fill in more plans as the last few days tick by, and family input becomes more insistant!
