I noticed that you want to eat at Cinderella's every morning on your trip. What does your budget look like or is that not an issue? Overall, it looks good and Port Orleans looks like a very nice resort.

Hi, it looks good. I'm jealous I have to wait another year (we're going Dec 2005).

I noticed you're planning on buying your tickets when you get there? Why don't you buy them in advance if they are cheaper? (I think it depends on which kind you are buying.)

I'd also recommend taking an afternoon break on the mvmcp. We did last year, and it really helped. The MVMCP really clears out after the first parade when all the sleepy people leave, and all the rides are walk-on.

Also, if your kids are Toy Story fans, you'll love pizza planet. Good luck on the Cinderella reservations!

 

[storybookmum]

I'll delete it from every day I don't get it; I won't try for the evening one if I get the breakfast....I'm just covering all the bases! We're blowing the budget, but not THAT bad!!! I wasn't originally wanting POR, we were set up for Fort Wilderness at the cabins, but I couldn't get the AP rate, so we're moving over to POR, and I'm trying to adjust...I'm sure it'll be great, the resort looks lovely!

NanuV: We're getting our tickets there because of the kind we're getting, otherwise I would take care of that detail ahead of time. DH's family has a Fort Myers condo, so we just get the Florida Resident passes. I've got to get my Florida DL first!

I think it'll be a good idea for me to go rest with the little girls before the Christmas party, thanks! And I particularly am grateful for the good feedback on Toy Story Pizza Planet - I just have to be sure they can give me a dairy-free pizza without problem, because Meredith, my youngest, and I, can't have milk.

Misty89 - I didn't know there was a DIS meet! I'll look into it, that would be fun! Yes, I'm dying to get the PS over with so I can really settle into all the plans! I can make the first one tomorrow, for supper on the 28th! And then it's off and running for Cinderella....

Thanks for the feedback! I'm off to check that DIS meet for MVMCP! (Quickly...gotta get ready for church!)

Take care,

Kris

have fun!!! - its a pretty long post

 

[JaxCon]

I am sure I am wrong but is SpectroMagic on Sunday in Dec b/c it is on Sat and tuesday now.

Everything looks like lots of fun, I am working on ours these days too! DH is fighting me about having a set schedule bit I have to have a plan!

 

[Nanu57v]

I don't think its on Sunday. We were there for 5 days in December and saw it twice. None of those days was a Sunday.

 

[storybookmum]

I thought it was just the new nightime parade, on every night unless the MVMCP was on...I'll have to check into that, thank you! My IL's will be disappointed, the MVMCP is on our Tuesday night, so it won't happen, and they'll be gone before the Saturday! We'll catch it on our last night, I guess...

Me: Honey, apparently SpectroMagic is only on Tuesdays and Saturdays.

DH: Are we going to MISS IT?

Me: Not if we stay late enough on our last night before driving home.

DH: Well, why don't we just stay one more night?

Me (horrified): At AKL again?????? (we're there our last 2 nights, as of today)

DH: Well, what the heck? No....I guess not. A new challenge for you honey, find somewhere offsite! A whole new adventure!

Me: Well.....I guess...what would we do on Sunday, then, drive straight home?

DH: We do have season's passes. What's one more day?

Me: LOLOLOLOL!!!

Teehee!!

 

[Nanu57v]

Haha, that's great. Something else instead of off-site you might do a night at the all-stars. During our December trip we got 49 a night AP rate last year. Whatever you do don't stay Econo Lodge at the Airport. That place is ghetto!

 

[storybookmum]

Thanks! All-Star Sports isn't an option because there are five of us, but I'll avoid the airport.

I don't know if I can get all that interested in an off-site hotel, y'know? We'll see. Maybe Kidsuites....

I CAN get all happy about another day at Disney!!
