Hanging with Earl the Squirrel and The Grinch. A Christmas TR! PTR info 2/21*

[disneyAndi14]

Wow, your trip is really close now.

I bought MPLL for AK and Epcot during our trip earlier this month. One of the things I loved about it was being able to sleep in on the AK day because I had the LL for safari. I also liked having a LL for Remy. But our March trip includes our sisters, and they don't want to get MPLLs for any of the parks.

I am going to start packing this weekend since I have to work right up to the travel day!
I like using the FP$$ aka MPLL most of the time. It is a little pricey but if you can get 6-8 rides with it, it makes it worth the cost

 

[disneyAndi14]

Great FP for cash selections. Your trip is so soon! Knowing what the temps have been in Minnesota, I bet you can't wait!!

Thank you! I’m excited for our trip and yes it has been frigid here!

 

[disneyAndi14]

I have lurked and read all yours and others trip reports and never responded lol. But we arrive on 3/3 so if I see you at some point I will stop and say Hi!! Our park days seem to be different. I am splurging and buying premier pass as this is my grandson's first trip and I just want to soak it all in and enjoy the days. Have a great trip!!!

I’m glad you decided to comment and maybe we will run into each other, you never know! I hope you have a wonderful trip! How exciting to be trying the Premiere Pass. I guess I need to call that extra fancy FP for cash! Enjoy your trip with family!

 

[pkondz]

Same here! Today was 28 degrees and the next few days high 30s, yay!

Yay indeed!
And warmer temperatures for you, coming soon.

I plan to get a least 5-10 more rides, lol if my back can take it!

Good luck!

It has been ages for me also. We are hoping to have a firework view table!

That would be great!

I have always wanted to do this tour and I’m excited to check it out! I will be the lady following the rules while eating my cucumbers off the boat

Sounds like a fab line up for your trip. Can’t wait to hear what you think of the cake place. Happy birthday to your sister

 

[Steppesister]

I forgot to add I canceled Coral Reef and San Angel Inn

Coming up so soon now!!! How exciting!

The plans are solid for sure. (Let us know how the $22 cake is.)

Why did you give those up? Other places fit better or had higher priority? My kids and I have some really amazing memories from there.

Looks like we arrive on the same day! Allie and I are going down this Thursday morning 2/27! We have two nights at the new Poly Tower but Allie has to work from there on Thursday and Friday so I'll be heading to the parks for some solo time. Planning on MK Thursday and AK Friday since I didn't get there in January. If I switch my Friday to DHS I'll text you to say hello!

Have an amazing trip!!

How exciting! We should definitely try to meet up! I will send you a message with my phone number just in case it works out! We could get a drink and snack at Baseline if you make your way into DHS!

Yay indeed!

Thank goodness . Florida is looking pretty nice for our trip, hope it stays that way! It is 40 here right now, heat wave for us, last Monday was -50 below with the wind!

Good luck!

If I am in the front of the vehicle I am fine, the back on Dinosaur is rough!

That would be great!

I’m not a big fan of the Epcot fireworks so this would be nice to have a drink and enjoy from our dining area

Sounds like a fab line up for your trip. Can’t wait to hear what you think of the cake place. Happy birthday to your sister

Thank you very much! We are getting excited! I am excited to try the Cakebake shop! I think we will share everything there!

Coming up so soon now!!! How exciting!

I can’t wait, we have had frigid cold here for 2 weeks

The plans are solid for sure. (Let us know how the $22 cake is.)

I will definitely let you know about the cake I have heard very mixed reviews!

Well, we decided a few lounge meals were more to our liking. Also the boat ride in Mexico is closed for refurbishment and the water is drained by the restaurant so not as appealing! We do like San Angel Inn! Coral Reef was mainly for Donna and her love of aquariums. We will have to spend more time in the actual aquariums instead.

Your plans sound great! It’s good to hear SDD was available on your first full day (even though it was later times) as that bodes well for us booking it on the fifth day of our trip. I’m also glad you were able to book Tiana’s given the disappearance of the virtual queue - I’ll be interested in watching the wait times explode for that and Guardians.

I’d love to hear what you thought of Cakebake! I don’t plan to eat a full meal but I’m not opposed to stopping in the bakery for an (overpriced?) piece of cake!

 

[vamassey1]

I'm happy to get in before you leave again.

I hope you have a fabulous trip with your sister. Keep you eyes peeled for Danielle while you're in Epcot. I know she is work the opening day of F&G. I hope it's not as crowded for you as it was for us for opening day of Farts. We didn't get to eat or see as much as we would have liked due to the crowds. I did enjoy seeing lots of Disney Influencers in passing.

 

[Paulaparm]

Have a great time! Enjoy the warmer weather.

I usually don’t do DHS the first day so I can get a decent time for SDD, however, it is really nice to have a slower morning and take a boat ride over to DHS are first full day! I saw GotG was at 170 minutes the other day, yikes! We will be doing a fancy FP$$ for that one!

I’d love to hear what you thought of Cakebake! I don’t plan to eat a full meal but I’m not opposed to stopping in the bakery for an (overpriced?) piece of cake!

I will let you all know! I have excellent reviews and terrible ones so we will see!

I'm happy to get in before you leave again.

Thank you! We leave tomorrow at 3pm!

I’m really excited. I know the first day of F&G will be crazy. I hope I see some of the influencers I watch on YouTube! My plan is to just try a couple things right at opening! I will look out for your daughter

Have a great time! Enjoy the warmer weather.

Thank you so much!

Have a fabulous trip!

Thank you, coming up tomorrow yay

We leave tomorrow at 3pm!

That's today now! Have a great trip!

Hello Everyone!
I am back and needed this past week to recover from a really busy trip and the dumb daylight savings time change!
I was thinking how to do the TR for this recent trip. I didn’t take notes and I didn’t take a ton of pictures! This is so unlike me, lol
I was going to add it in here but I think I will make a new TR post and review things in a more abridged version!
We did have a wonderful trip! The parks were crowded especially with foreign visitors. Many French visitors this trip!
Either way beginning of spring break time is usually crowded.
Funny thing is Epcot was not that crowded and this worked well for us since we were in Epcot almost everyday!
Stay tuned for my new TR coming up soon!

Great!

Huh. Wonder why?

Sometimes it's okay to take a break from the TR'ing and just enjoy without having to think about that.

Many French visitors this trip!

That's interesting!

Funny thing is Epcot was not that crowded and this worked well for us since we were in Epcot almost everyday!

That worked out great! Huzzah!
