Adults only trip May '06

[lisatx04]

We were looking for a vacation spot to go to with friends of ours for May '06. We thought of many places to go but in the end, we suggested Disney and our beloved OKW. Can you believe our friends have never been there????

Anyway, I booked 2 studios for our first ever adults only trip to WDW!! DH and I are going in March with our kids and then in May, back again!! I am so excited!!!! I guess I have to plan the trip differently knowing there won't be any kids in our group but I don't care.

Now, any tips for me to make sure our first-time friends enjoy what we all know and love!!!!

Hey thanks for that bit of info. I always see the concerts advertised, but never was able to take advantage. We are leaving May 27 and coming back June 3. I'll see who is playing while we are there.

We did an adults only trip this fall (F&W) and I can't think of a better trip we've taken. Make sure that you enjoy the great restaurants. EPCOT takes on an entirely different flavour when only with adults. We could have spend each night there...but then there are so many other things to do...even just the peaceful morning coffee...stroll in the evening...

Once you do it you'll need to do it again. Good idea taking the kids on a trip first. You can keep an eye out for activities to plan while on your March trip.

Have a great time!

Ah, yes-the flower power concerts! We never miss them. Does anyone else remember when Steppenwolf was there a few years back? Sitting in Epcot, listening to Steppenwolf belt out "Born to be Wild" and "Magic Carpet Ride" definitely felt strange. We're also 2 adults sans kids who'll be at OKW in May.

DH and I have been there for the past two years during Flower and Garden Festival....without the kids. Our anniversary is 5/12/ so it makes it easy to get away for four or five days. We've seen Gary Puckett, Paul Revere, and
Orleans while there. It's weird......remembering those performers from the
60's and 70's and then seeing them now.....then again, I was only a teenager then too!!!! Paul Revere made a joke about where are all the go-go girls
now and then said they're all driving their ecv's chasing the grandkids. We're
not going in May, 2006 since we've decided we'd like to do the F & W festival
with friends in October. I just made the ressies yesterday for two studios
10/14/ thru 10/20. That should be fun, too. The Eat to the Beat concerts usually have a pretty good lineup also.
