Can we talk about the pools

[tinkerbellandeeyor]

There is a .1% chance that I well be there for the 50th how crowded are the pools in the morning can dh bring his water weights so he can work out in the morning

Btw not trolling just a lot of red tape that I have to cut though

1. My prepaid debit card only holds so much funds and I have to pay for tickets and hotel and either a uber or a taxi

So lots of red tape but four years to work it out

Sorry, I do not have much morning pool experience.

I did want to mention, that if you are certain you are spending money on Disney, you can buy Disney gift cards at many stores (and sometimes get a slight discount or fuel points, etc)
And then you can combine the cards at disneygiftcard.com (up to $1000) and use the gift card(s) to pay for tickets and Disney hotels.

The "quiet pools" tend to be open earlier than the main pools. It really depends on resort. I would definitely not bring them to feature pools, due to the nature of those pools.

two things are going through my mind at the moment one is leaving dh behind the 50th anniversary crowds we'll be too much for him too I just priced my vacation and 3000 dollars it won't be stressful because I would have saved up for it but oth I don't want to get there and be underwhelmed either

Whenever we have gone to the pool first thing in the morning, we have always been the first ones there. As far as working out in the pool, I doubt they will care as long as he isn't bothering anyone (in other words, as long as it isn't crowded) but he might want to stick to the quiet pool for working out if there is any concern about bothering others.

I don't know what the question is here. Not why you say you're not trolling and I don't understand the red tape stuff.

If you buy things a bit at a time then you don't have to worry about big expenses.

If I do decide to do this this would be my first time booking a trip dh and I have travled (sp) by our selfs before but our parents always made the arrangements this time If a major if I go I well be making all the arrangements Disney makes it pretty easy on their site

I agree with the other PP's, the quiet pools are probably your best bet for this, however, in my experience, the pools are fairly empty in the morning as most people are heading out to the parks, so it shouldn't be a problem. If you want to be IN the park on the actual 50th anniversary day, I would forego the pool and head to MK super early. Just speculation, but it will be crowded to the gills packed.

My dh has no interest in the parks so he would be in the pool while I am at the MK

But he might not be going to Orlando with me the 50 will be too crowded for him

Btw I hope I am not wasting any ones time the idea just occurred to me yesterday So again even with no obstacles Disney might not be doing anything I want to take part in for the 50th no one well no for awhile

Tink --- 4 years away is way too far to worry about. None of us can really help you yet with info about what will happen 4 years from now. So from that perspective it is a waste of folks time. That said, you have your answer. The quiet pools would be the best bet for your DH
What you should do is start saving now. Buying Disney gift cards a little at a time is a great suggestion for you. That way there is no issue with your debit card.

I get no one plans that far out know I was not sure what the average time was to start planing and considering

There's nothing wrong with planning and doing a little dreaming four years out! I love the suggestion to start buying Disney gift cards as a way to save money; it makes planning for that trip - and making it a reality - so much easier! That said, please don't worry about the little things like morning pool workouts just yet; use this time to dream big and have fun doing it!
We will all be here to help with the details parts as your vacation gets closer.

I used to plan three to four years out all the time because it would take me that long to save for our trip. I would just look at current rates and estimate 5 - 10% increase per year for the total. Good luck with your planning!

I'm not sure what water weights are like. If they are not soft they probably won't let him use them in the feature pool. The life guards will only allow soft items in them. So just plan to use them in the quiet, or non-feature pool.

As for your prepaid credit card situation, just don't plan to use it. Go with the gift card suggestion. Start buying them now. Put them away. 4 years, $50 here or there, will add up
