Your trip will be here before you know it!!

We had the QSDDP last trip and really liked it once we figured it all out. We had never done any of the dining plans before so it was all new to us. I'm paying OOP for some ADR's but we don't like a sit down meal every day so this works best for us. Last year I looked at the receipts and DH and I pretty much broke even with what we would have spent eating OOP... BUT we usually wouldn't get a dessert or extra drinks every meal so we got more food for the money. I think where you really make out is the kids prices. You can't buy 2 meals and 2 snacks for kids for less than $10 a day.Hey Kim - are you doing the QSDDP? Did you do it last year too? How did you like that and how are you planning to use it? We're contemplating using it in the future and I'm on an info-gathering mission. I have every intention of trying for a breakfast ADR at CRT, and would pay OOP for that. I'm just curious how it all worked out for you. TIA!
You must be getting really excited!!
I'm slowly getting there. I feel like every time I cross something off I add something else. I pulled up the list I had from last trip and did get to cross off "feed fish with vacation feeder" because they all died last year and we got rid of the tank. One less thing to have to take care of before I go!Yay for getting things done off your list!!
I am looking forward to hearing what you think about the cake and such. It must feel so nice to pull out warm weather clothing!!! I am so ready for winter to be done and it has barely started!
Your trip will be here before you know it!!: goodvibes
Wednesday- DH's Birthday
Breakfast at Ohana's then head to Epcot
Dinner at Coral Reef for Dh's birthday
Illuminations
You know I think that's the day I'm most looking forward to. That day and the first day we arrive that is!Your plans look great. I especially love this day --
I can't believe your trip is in 15 days!!![]()
We don't carry any money either. We have some gift cards and anything beyond that gets charged back to the room with the KTTW card. Just makes it easier.Thanks for the info Kim! I also love paying it in advance! I don't carry hardly any money with me!
I think your list looks pretty manageable! Some things don't take too long to do! Good luck!
Thanks for being excited with me! If only your excitement would rub off on my DH. He says he'll be excited when we get there.You're getting so close!!! I'm so excited for you!
I know I can hardly believe it's in 2 weeks!!! I have so much to do before we leave. I'm starting to have the crazy Disney dreams already...I even had one that it was snowing in Fl and we forgot to pack coats. Gotta stop watching the weather channel and worrying if the south will get out of that cold snap!Only 2 more weeks!!!![]()

Poor little iguanas! I've been keeping an eye on that forecast and it should be warming up by the end of this week.I hear ya on the crazy pre Disney trip dreams. Always have them!
I sure hope it warms up down there for you guys!I was watching the news last night and they were showing how the iguana's in Miami were going into a comatose state because it had been so cold for so many days.
I sure hope that will all be over and done with and it will be nice and toasty warm for you in 2 weeks!!

Multitasking!!I love it! Some may call that panicking or being obsessive, but not us!
I also have wacky dreams before we go. Plus I can NOT sleep the night before, especially if I have to get up early. I can't shut my brain off from the "list".
Nope I'm not expecting too much shut eye. I feel like a kid on Christmas Eve. Too excited to sleep and my mind races. That's okay though because I'm going to Disney!!!! I can catch up on sleep when I get home.Oh yeah, between worrying about making sure you have everything ready, and worrying about oversleeping and missing the flight (when we've flown), I never sleep!!!
I'M TOO EXCITED TO SLEEP!!![]()
No hopping!Hey There!![]()
Great plans!I so wish I could convince my crew to do the park hopper/QSDP plan for some future trip! We could totally do the whole no plans/totally relax thing! It looks so nice! Alas, my DH likes to eat too much and my girls are NOT fans of "hopping" ! We tried it for the last three days of our trip last year and they hated it! When we were planning this trip we asked them if they wanted to do the "one park per day" or "hopping around" and they both said in emphatic unison "NO HOPPING"!

I think if DH and I are fortunate enough to be able to do a couples only trip at some point we may try the park hopping/QSDP thing! It would be SO fun to just go wherever we wanted and eat whenever we wanted! No schedule and nothing to say where we have to be and when! Totally footloose and Fancy Free!![]()
Hi Jen! How goes it? Is Nobby getting super excited yet? I have to get over on your PTR again soon. I've barely the time to keep up with my own boring PTR lately. Please don't be a procrastinator- you'll panic me! Get those suitcases out for goodness sake!Love you itinerary! You guys are going to have such a great time!! I will be missing you by 2 whole days!!
Your what will you be doing in 2 weeks sounds a lot like what I'm doing right now...although I probably should get on that whole packing thing LOL!
Poor little iguanas! I've been keeping an eye on that forecast and it should be warming up by the end of this week.![]()
10 Days til DISNEY!!!!!!!!!!
