Where are you staying for the DL part of your trip?

We're off site for DL, at a nearby Comfort Inn. DL onsite was coming out so expensive expensive, we'll be doing all our relaxing at Beach Club anyway (We're at BC till the 5th July)

I found the trip report I was thinking of, from NYE 2013-14: MagicBands + Margaritas + Muggles + Minions by eandesmom.

They were staying BWI, spent the morning at AK and entered EPCOT at 4:30 pm NYE. No lines getting in, crowded once they did.

The several chapter update of that evening starts here:

Thank you so much for taking the time to find the review. Much appreciated!

Happy Birthday!

We're at BCV for NYE, and also planning to do Epcot that night. All of my research suggests that unless the crowds are even huger (is that a word?) than usual, Epcot won't close to resort guests. According to the threads I've seen, Epcot hasn't had any phased closures since NYE 1999/2000. Even then, resort guests are the last to be excluded. I expect MK will have closures, but not Epcot.

There isn't (thus far) an Illuminations dessert party that night. There's a dinner buffet at World Showplace but it doesn't include fireworks viewing. I suspect something will be announced at some point, though, since I can't see them not taking advantage of that particular cash cow on a night like NYE when people would pay a premium for better viewing spots.

Thank you for your response. I was assuming we wouldn't have a problem getting back in but wanted to hear it from others. We currently have an 8pm dinner reservation for San Angel Inn but after reading some other threads I'm a little concerned we may have trouble getting from IG to Mexico. I was thinking about dinner at Cape May post resort break to avoid this but still not sure.

Wishing Dee a very Happy and Magical Birthday! Thanks for all you do. Hope we are able to meet next time.

And to keep it pertinant to the thread, for those wondering about closet space, here's a picture of our luggage in the closet at BC. (They were on sale and I couldn't resist!) I forgot to post it during our stay.

Again Happy Birthday!

Wow!!!

Thank you for all the great birthday wishes. Halloween is a great day for a birthday because there is lots of chocolate, you can always find a party and everyone remembers it.

Well, almost everyone.



Because I love you all, and because I can't share this on Facebook, I'll tell you all my favorite birthday story.

We aren't huge birthday celebrators in our family- we don't always exchange gifts and we never give each other cards, but a "Happy Birthday" is always nice to hear.

About 10 years ago, Mark headed off to work without acknowledging my birthday. Ok, it's 5 am and we are both tired, I can understand forgetting to say something.

But the day goes on and I don't hear anything from him. No phone call. No email. Not a word.

I mention this to a friend of mine and she is horrified! Tara worked at a Florist shop at the time and she sent me a "boo-quet" of Halloween flowers.

Mark came home early that night so he could take the boys out for Trick-or-Treat.

When he walked in the door, he saw my gift, nodded his head towards the flowers and said.

What's that?

Flowers from Tara.

What for?

My birthday. It falls on Halloween this year.

Oh.

He hasn't forgotten my birthday since.

Happy birthday, Dee! Thank you so much for this wonderful thread. It's made me so much more excited for our first BC stay than I otherwise would have been! This is most definitely the best thread on the DIS thanks to your hard work and welcoming demeanor!

I LOVE your Donald luggage tag! It's so big and adorable!

Very excited for our 4th BC stay - June 30-July 6, 2017! We have gone back and forth between BC and Poly and have decided BC is our favorite. I stayed at POFQ for a quick trip recently and it wasn't BC and didn't feel right!

@AGoofykindagirl Your luggage is fabulous! I bet it makes you smile each time you get it out to travel.

We are planning a trip in Oct 2017, but will be at BWI. I will be reading here in the meantime. It's such a friendly thread with awesome information-great combo! One of these years I'm sure we'll book at YC again. I can't stay away from SAB too long.

I couldn't get my Goofy tag to stay put on the other one for the photo.

Yes it does- if we only travelled more than once or twice a year. The funny thing was, it was less than the plain black. And our old luggage needed to be replaced.
Glad you enjoyed the photo!
