[FONT=[COLOR="Red"]I've been lurking around the DisBoards for a while now trying to get all the info I can to help me plan my WDW trip. Basically I'm addicted to not only planning my trip but to this forum. After a couple of months of lurking I'm starting to feel like someone who's eating all the food at a potluck but I didn't bring a dish, so I'm going to take the plunge and begin my first WDW ptr.
History:
This trip came about when one day in April 2010 (yes two months ago) my DH said, "Where going to Disney in June 2010 (Yes this year). Since my husband does this with all of our trips because he thinks I'm his personal assistant. I said," This is going to be an expensive trip, and he just looked at me as usual and forgot about it. The only question he asks is, "When are we leaving."
I've been to Disneyland several times as a kid and WDW twice when I was sixteen: once w/ my aunt and no one else and with the band in highschool and I think Goofy goosed me
, that was a little strange. But I digress. The kids and DH have never been. So this will be our first WDW trip together.
Celebrating:
Our 10th Wedding anniversery. DS's 10th B-Day and DD's 6th B-Day, DN's B-Day. all the kids B-Day is in June
The Cast:
DH, who still won't believe how much this trip is going to be until we get back
Me (Angela), Working mom who does it all
DS (Jamal 10) funny, smart kid who's too much like his mom
DN (Nephew, Harold,11) all around cool kid
DD (Norah 6) Princess of the family, fashionista and all around girly girl and too much like her father.
Dates:
Leaving on June 22 plan to be there in the morning of June 23 to June 28 2010
Staying:
Offsite
I hadn't begun to visit this sight yet. I didn't know, I really didn't know 
. Since reading the DIS and everybody's ptrs I really wish I could stay onsite but do to limited planning and funds we are staying at the Sheraton Vistana Resort not far away in a 2BR Villa. If we get a refurbished room it should be OK. I got great rates w/ the help of a friend.
TKTS:
I got 4 Day prime tkts at a great price on the Dis Youth programs (open enrollment) bassically half price. Love the special programs at Disney
.
I've read everything I can about WDW and trip planning. I've bought or read in the store any guide books I could get my hands on, but the best info I've gotton so far is FROM YOU GUYS ON THE BOARDS. So any suggestions, info or just kinds words you have will be appreciated.
Touring plans:
Day one: Arrival
Hit TL. The kids love Water parks
check into the hotel around 3
Hit DTD: DD has a 6:30 BBB apt
Suggestions Needed Now: Where should we eat?
Day 2: Due to ADR this Day is set in Stone
Epcot Day: Using the touring plans from UG
1:35 ADR With the Princesses in Norway
Day 3:
AK
DTD
8:30 ADR at Boma for Dinner
Day 4: Sat
Mk
I'm worried about this because it's Sat, Should I Change this w/ Friday or Sun.
Day 5:
HK
Maybe DQ
I'm not much of a planner, at least not on paper, so I hope this helps me out. I like structure but not a lot of it so there are not a lot of ADR's on this trip. Any all suggestions are welcome especially on where to eat, in and out of the world. Disers sprinkle a little magic on me
, come on, help guide me around the World. Pictures will come when I figure out how to put them on here
