Bursting about the surprise!

[DynamicDisney]

We leave on Tuesday - me, DD10 and DD7. It's going to be just the 3 of us - oldest went on a trip with school last year, and DS and DH are kinda "take it or leave it" Disney-goers (boo). So, I booked this trip a few months ago when my DH said "just take them." Did not have to tell me twice!

They think we are leaving Saturday, but we are really leaving on Tuesday! I have always just added "4" to our countdown when it has come up.

I am not sure yet how I am going to surprise them. At this point, they think that we are going to Philadelphia for my youngest DD check-up for her clubfeet. That gets them out of bed early. I did not want to tell them the night before, or first thing in the morning when we get up, as I am hoping they may doze back off in the car (we have a 6am departure at an airport 1.5hrs away from our house).

So, I think I am hoping they will not figure anything out until we get to the airport. Just hoping it is dark enough and that they do not start reading the street signs!

I just had to tell 'someone' - I am so beyond excited for this trip, and cannot wait to Let The Memories Begin!

Well have fun on the trip. Looks like you're going to All Star Movies. We were there in October 2011 in the Fantasia building. My tip to you is this: All star Sports/Movies/Music are all literally right next to each other so it's not a long walking distance between them. When you're at the bus stop at a park you can jump on the other All Star resort bus and just walk to Movies when you're dropped off. Once at Epcot we waited 45 minutes for a Movies bus and right next to us was the All Star Music stop and they had like 3 buses come while we were waiting. We should've just gotten on one of their buses and walked from Music to Movies.

I share your excitement with you! They will be so surprised! DD14 and I are leaving on Tuesday too. We have an evening flight out and will have a long layover in Toronto before we arrive early next morning - booked flights using points so didn't have much choice. We can't wait to experience DW again - it's been many years since we have been to DW. DD and I are Disney buddies and love making Disney Memories together! Have a fantastic time!

How exciting. Hope your trip is magical.
We are leaving in 40 days and it can't get here fast enough.

Enjoy! Telling the kids so much fun. We love surprising our kids. Except now they are older and always are thinking that we are surprising them with a trip.

Let us know how it works out.
