Doing Disney the Grand Way! July '10 (UD 7/14) TR link!

[

Cons:
-We'll be two-three hours away from my happy place, just sitting there, lol

Countdown
EXACTLY ONE MONTH :cool1: :dance3: :woohoo:
That made me laugh! I'm 3 hours away from Disney and yet I just sit here.:laughing:
I got scared when I saw that hotel picture and thought you were staying there instead of GF!
Yay, for more park time. :woohoo::woohoo:
Happy 1 month dance! Your countdown calendar just keeps getting smaller and smaller.:goodvibes
 
That's a great change in plans! You get to leave a day early LOL to being "2 hours away just sitting there"

I would love to be able to stay at GF. That is a really beautiful resort. We used to go at least to look at it and shop/eat there most of our trips.

Haha, I thought it would be a funny thing to add(:
OMG- I looked back, and realized I would've thought the same thing! Just by looking at the pics, lol!
It is! And it's very exciting!

I know, I'm happy about getting more park time and stuff. Haha :laughing:

The GF is very beautiful, I was looking at a GF website, and it was saying how the GF is the fanciest resort on Disney property. Because of that, I'm excited for the turndown service- and having the Mouse Keepers move the stuffed animals around in silly ways(:
 
Hey Sara :wave: loving your new flip flops :thumbsup2 I purchased a pair of fit flops for our trip and they are sooooo comfy. Your link was great to the Captain EO info. Your Disney history blogs are great :cool1: We did not get to visit Disney until we were in our 20s but we have made sure our kids have visited from a young age. DS was 18 months on his first visit, DD1 was 19 weeks old and DS2 will have just turned 1. Your countdown pic is ace. What a great change to your plans :cool:

Hey!
Thanks, I love my flip flops! Sooo comfy(:
I'm glad it was a help! I'm excited for Captain EO
When I'm older and have kids, I'm def going to have them experience WDW from a young age!
I'm excited for a little change in our plans, change is always... interesting lol

Life gets in the way of the computer sometimes lol
It is! I'm getting really excited(:

Better late then never! Glad you're here(:
I've always wanted to stay at the GF, it looks so fancy and girly-ish :cutie: I'm excited for 25 days, mainly because on my ticker it doesn't have "_months _weeks and _days" it's just "_days" now, and somehow that excites me :goodvibes
 
(I need to get on a role with our detailed plans! Only 24 days until our trip!)

Thursday, July 8th
Wake up like normal, breakfast in the room (we're not doing Chef Mickey's, so breakfast will be in the room)
I WAS planning for MK, but I dunno anymore, we're just going to go with the flow)
I've already mentioned my Must Do's for MK, so no need to say it again.
If we do MK I'm planning on having lunch at either Cosmic Rays or Pinochio's H.

We'll come back, and relax before heading out again. To EPCOT?
If we do EPCOT, I want to see Captain EO, since that will be a new thing. *I've also already mentioned my EPCOT must do's)

Dinner will either be in Mexico or China

After EPCOT, we'll head back to GF, and head to bed.

I think I mentioned this before, but I'm excited for turn down service! *Mainly because I want a GF choclate ...(: *

OH! And, I'm pretty sure I've never mentioned this... but I'll be bringing my laptop with me, so I'll try to get on the DIS in the free time... we normally just bring my dad's work laptop, but since I got my own laptop- I'll have mine now(: I'm excited for this, because it will make the 9 hr car drive nicer, I'll have more things to do besides just watching movies.
 
love the plans
your trip is closer and closer each day... not too long now!
 
Friday, July 9th
It's another wake up- breakfast in the room day!
HWS is the planned park for today!
If we follow the plan, I'd like to have lunch at ABC Com.

My must dos for Hollywood Studios are;
1. Ride Rock 'n' Rollercoaster. We missed this the last few trips, and I must ride it this time! It's such a thrill(:
2. Toy Story Mania! I reallllllllllllllllly want to do this again! Last time we went on it, we waited for longer then an hour to get on it. But, it was worth it.

After HWS, we'll head back to GF and relax, before heading out again!

This time to MK. It's open until 2 am (with EMH) so we'll have lots of park time!
Dinner maybe some Cosmic Rays?
I've already mentioned my must do's for MK, so I'll just continue on(:

After MK, (I dunno if we'll be able to hang until 2...) we'll head back to the GF and call it a night!

**Hey, I changed my ticker in my sig... now it rotates(: And I'm pretty proud of it!**
 
Hey Sara! I can't believe you're already in the double digits! It's going to be here in no time! :)

Love your plans! I usually change mine like 21419758515x's!! haha! then, i never stick to it... LOL

sooo close! ;)
