Hello!
Thank you! Yes, we are very excited
Haha yes! People need to take more sanity trips.
Oh, we are just missing you Where will you be staying?

 

[Amunet]

Wow, I need to update this!

We upgraded to a Royal room (cause I'm in love with these rooms) and added a BOG lunch reservation.
Oh, and managed to find a much earlier ADR for Ohanas

 

[NJlauren]

Oh we will be at the same time! Where will you be staying?
Hehe, hello!

We are staying at the contemporary, I am really excited! Taking my DD 10 months and can't wait almost FP day!

 

[Gracefulskinny]

Where will you be staying?

We too will be in a Royal Room thanks to the discounts!

 

[Amunet]

Holy crud! Got an 8:40am cp adr!!!

 

[Amunet]

YAY! When is fp day?
Oooh I've never stayed there but it's cool how the monorail goes inside

We too will be in a Royal Room thanks to the discounts!

Gotta love these discounts, right?! Which building are you going to request?

 

[NJlauren]

YAY! When is fp day?
Oooh I've never stayed there but it's cool how the monorail goes inside

Tonight at midnight! A little freaked out but hoping we get what we want! 7 adults 1 infant so we will see...what about u?

 

[Gracefulskinny]

Just highest floor possible.

Thank you! You reminded me to get tickets so I can reserve on time
We are checking in when you are, so at midnight for us too!
The only thing for us is the Snow White ride on May 3rd (for two). Other then that, nothing is MUST. Thankfully, we should see Elsa and Anna on our cruise, so no need for FP for that. Lol otherwise I would be!
What are you guys trying to get?

Just highest floor possible.

Do you prefer the view?
I recommend the Oak Manor building. It's a closer walk to reception/dining and closer to the east depot bus stop
I am so PSYCHED to be in a Royal room again!!

 

[Amunet]

Park tickets booked!
2 adult 2day tickets (non park hopper)

Anna and Elsa if I can get it, maybe 7DMT, Soarin, however we are a big group some ride with less people I'm going to try for A&E first and then go from there....I'm pretty open trying to have a relaxing trip

Is your whole group trying to get A&E?
I'm so surprised how popular the M&G is for them! It's like when BOG first opened x10 difficulty! I wish you the best of luck

I found you can use FP+ for parade viewing. Definitely will use one for the fantasy parade.
So for us it's Dwarves ride then fantasy parade. Third will be Peter pan or space mountain.

Yeah, I get you with relaxing As much as I'm planning now, I make sure to schedule a nap and/or relaxation time, just in case. But for me, it's more my anxiety kicking in. I'd rather have the reservation and skip out then not have it and want to go. Though, I only reserve for what we want to do (I don't get crazy with reservations lol), otherwise, it's unfair for those that really need them.

No i am thinking 1-3 people for A&E, Me, My sister and my MIL if i can get it for the 3rd, if i can;t get it for the 3rd i would try for the 5th and it would be just me and my MIL since DD doesn't actually need one. I normally go nonstop but am trying to take a more relaxed approach this trip... we shall see! good luck with your FP's

 

[Amunet]

PP ~ 11:30-12:30
Dwarfs ~ 12:45-1:45
