December 2013.

[serene56]

We thought about renting points but figured December wouldn't be an easy month and we don't want to lock ourselves into a contract. With my husband's health who knows. Also that is why we stay on site. DH needs an ECV and there is no way we can lug that thing in and out of our car. !

renting points IS staying onsite- with all the stuff that comes with booking a disney vacation. Staying at a delux resort like Animal Kingdom or Boardwalk.
But with health being an issue-- and no cancellation that may not be the route for you to go

You can do it. I went and rejoined the Y yesterday I would really like to drop about 40lbs before the Disney trip. On the plus side just walking around looking at the Osborn lights can get you a couple of miles of walking in. I could spend hours in there just walking, looking & listening to the music and lights. I can't wait I'm so ready for Dec.

If this helps anyone, here's how I motivate myself to get into the gym. I found that I could easily spend hours on Dis researching and reading. Time flies when I'm on here. So now I take my phone (don't have an iPad) and I either walk on the treadmill or ride a bike for an hour while reading on Dis. In fact, I'm on a stair climber right now!

I don't have a smart phone & or Y doesn't have wifi or that would work great. I do have Disney music on my ipod, like rides and shows and stuff so I can kind of zone out and pretend I'm walking around MK when i'm on the tread mill

Is that NOT high? I checked Jetblue today for our dates and they are WAY higher than usual so I'm holding off 'til Airtran releases their dates at the beginning of may so I can compare.

I booked JetBlue the day flights were released. We got Providence to Orlando for $480 round trip. We are a family of 3.

I checked the same round trip flight today (curious) and it was over $900!

I'm in for 11/30 to 12/6. Probably staying at Pop but might book a bounce back for POFQ

Just got off the phone making the reservations for 12/2/13 - 12/6/13. Very excited! We have not been since 02/09. We are staying at Saratoga Springs and decided for ease with 4 young kids to go with the DDP. Trying to make the most of this trip since my daughter will be 6 and that is a perfect age to me for the princess interaction. What is the pop warner thing? Is it the first week of December?
Also, I understand the Mickey's once upon a Christmas party will be available that week. Anyone else planning on going even though you have to pay a little more for it. Seems pretty cool.

This is really a lot of fun. If you haven't done it yet you should. Last year it was Ages 10+: $58.95+tax / Ages 3-9 $53.95+tax.

I'm not sure yet if we are doing it yet or not, we've done it a few times and we may skip this year.

Pop Warner week is Dec 7th to 14th.

They haven't announced the 2013 MVMCP dates yet, but predictions are that it will be on Sun Dec 1st, Tues Dec 3rd, and Wed Dec 5th of the dates that you are there.

Anyone planning their ADRs yet?

I have been endlessly thinking about my ADR's.
My husband wants to eat dinner twice at Cape May Cafe, he loves it that much. I'm considering Liberty Tree Tavern for lunch. We've never eaten there before, but I've heard good things about it. I've been trying to talk my DH into eating dinner at Trailer's End at FW. I've heard the food is great and it is the lowest price buffet at WDW. But he doesn't like chicken. And I think we might try Via Napoli for the first time ever.

I've been thinking about Be Our Guest, too. And he wants to go back to Ohana for dinner. We did it for the first time this last February. I think we might need to add some days to our trip.

Is there a facebook group for December 2013? I noticed that November has one and thought it would be a fun way to connect. It may be 227 days away but that doesn't stop me from obsessively planning now!
