December 2007...who's going?

[ohdisco]

My mom Terry (celebrating her 47th birthday), My cousin Mary, My boyfriend Eric, and I are going on our first trip to WDW December 13-19, and we're staying at the Contemporary with a MK view room!

We have changed our dates to 12/13 to 12/18. I will get a longer vacation that way.

I changed our dates too. December 10-14 at AKL, thanks to an excellent discount! We will be at Universal from the 14th-17th!

My DH and I will be at AKL from 12/21/-07 through 1/1-08, and we are so excited! I love finding the message boards where others are waiting as long as we are. It makes the wait easier to deal with.

Last year was our first trip, and in planning it, we worried that spending 7 full days in WDW would get boring. Wrongo! We ran out of time long before we ran out of things to do!

So this time, we'll be staying 12 full days.

Think we'll be bored by the end of the 12 days, or will they have to drag us kicking and screaming from our room?

Same thing here. We stayed 6 days last summer (our first trip) and I've got us book for 10 (but just saved $500 on the trip so I'm really thinking about adding a day or two to ours). We check in on the 19th.

How funny that our experiences are so similar. Right down to saving $500 on our second trips! That's the same amount we saved this time.

We'll be there Dec. 9 through the 22nd. I admire your bravery in staying through the Chrismas and New Years holidays! I'd love to do that myself, but I'm afraid of what kind of basket case I might become if I had to wait in line to ride my beloved TTA.

Wow! An amazing similiarity. I had to stretch to back ours up to the 19th (this already means I miss 3 days of work (and will get docked for 4) and my daughter misses 3 days of school...I can't justify any more than that so we will brave the crowds.

We'll be there Dec 9 -15th staying at the Shades of Green This is the first time in several years that EVERYONE in my family will be going..so 14 of us

We're planning from 12/09 - 12/16. We want to miss the mousefest crowd, but also experience xmas decorations

When and what is Mousefest???

 

[SlightlyGoofy]

We will be at the Sports from Dec 9-19th, 2007 @ $49.00 a nite!!!

For us it is a short trip, the minimum I am willing to do considering the long drive.

The longest we have stayed, so far, is 3 weeks for last summer's Free Dining program. I figure it cost us about $80 a day since we already had AP's. We cannot live that cheaply at home, or at least as nicely. Yum!!

April,

Here is a link that describes MVMCP, the prices and dates are for 2006 ( I couldn't find 2007 prices online yet) but this should give you a good idea of what it includes and I'm sure the pricing won't be much different this year. We've done MVMCP twice and it's always so much fun!!

Have you been to AKL before? My DH and I will be there for the first time from Dec. 21-Jan.1. We are excited. You'll have to fill me in on your experience when you return, since it will be less than a week before we leave.

My DH and I will be experiencing the MVMCP in December. I see someone already gave you the link you need for more info. I was told by a CM via the telephone that booking is sometime between March and May. So, I'll start looking online close to that time, to be sure.

I don't blame you for braving the crowds under those circumstances! Hopefully you'll be able to avoid the worst of them with a good touring plan.

 

[mom2taylorandemily]
