I want to go home...

[PratersloveDW]

There is not much worse than coming back to reality after being 'home.' Apparently I have the Post Disney Blues!!!

This was our first trip back to the World that our DS was actually anticipating. He wasn't really old enough before to understand the concept of 'getting ready for vacation.' In fact, the morning we were scheduled to leave, I am laying in bed and hear a quiet noise next to our bed. I roll over to see two very large blue eyes staring at me. My DS had his chin on the bed and gave me a huge toothy grin when I turned to see him. He giggled and said, "We go on plane to Mickey's house" (he's two so doesn't actually say COMPLETE sentences)!

*Sigh* - WDW is the most magical place...I can't wait to return to the parks!!!

I completely understand the Disney Blues....I have been back since May 22nd and I cannot wait to go back in Jan. The Disney Blues gets me everytime!!!!

We got back from our first WDW trip (9 nights) on May 7th and I'm still missing it terribly. I really really want to go back. If I had the money and vacation time, I'd love to make another trip this year. Unfortunately, I have neither right now, so I'm working on convincing my wife that we should go again next year around the same time(April/May).
It is really depressing to go back to real life and work after being in WDW.

I had them too! We came back May 2nd and it was rough. So what's a girl to do? Convince the grandparents that their next vacation should be at Disney World so we can go...welll guess what? Yep they are planning a trip in November so more planning for me.

Keep looking at your pictures and read some trip reports they help a little

Well I and my entire family share in your sadness! We all are homesick. Very very sad I'm trying to feel the magic by listening to the Wishes CD--- nice cd but I've still got the post-Disney blues!

I had them so bad when we came back in December that I could not bring myself to even get on the Disboards until a few weeks ago...now that I think we may be going back in November...I am back in full force...Let's do some Planning!!!!!!!

 

[kupperman]

I've been wanting to go back since we returned in December. Hopefully we will be able to go back in March 2006! I've already set my trip counters!

 

[Mellie0119]

I feel for ya! We got back on Friday, and DH has announced that next year's trip will be to somewhere different (after 3 years of WDW Vacations) Now I have to wait until Jan 2007 to go back! I've asked him for (demanded) a trip for just the two of us for my 30th birthday!

 

[PratersloveDW]

Well, I am really sorry that all of you have experienced the post-Disney blues but I must say, I like knowing I'm not alone! Hopefully we will all make it back home soon!

Mellie0119, best of luck on that trip for two! I am still trying to convince DH that we need to go back in October for our anniversary. Maybe we'll both get lucky!

We just got back on May 26th......and I am def. missing and right now! But it just means we get to have all the the fun all over again with planning our next trip!! We all know how fun that can be!!!!

 

[SqueakyMouse]

We returned early this morning from 10 days at WDW. Throughout the drive, dh and I were planning upcoming trips -- one for in just a few weeks. Yea!!

 

[Cyndirella]

Just home on Saturday and have the serious blues! The only thing that will make it better is planning another trip...I'm already working on DH for December 2006 but would love a long weekend before that!

 

[Tinkim]

I agree planning another trip is the only thing that works for me. I decided last year that I would like to try going once a year even if DH decides to go every other year. This past February the kids and I spent 6 days at WDW and we had a great time. We missed DH but I figure I shouldn't torture him with WDW every year since he isn't as crazy about it as we are. Even though my next trip is nine months away just talking about it and planning it are a big help so that's my advice . . . plan that next trip!

p.s. I forgot to mention . . . you have an adorable little boy. Beautiful family.

I always feel the same way when we get back from our WDW trips. It is so sad! But to pass the time I look at old pics, planning videos and DIS. The best fix for me has been DVC!! This year we'll go to WDW twice and Vero Beach once. Can't beat that! Whenever I miss WDW I make myself feel better by remembering I can just plan another trip!! YEA!!! I'm planning for my next 49 years of trips!!!LOL

 

[Tink0513]

Scrapbooking my trip photos has been another form of "therapy" for my post disney depression! I just got into scrapbooking so after I'm done with this past trips photos, I have 5 other trips to go back and scrapbook! That should keep me busy till my trip next year!!!!

 

[mill4023]

I sure envy those of you who have the time and resources to make more than one trip a year. I only get 2 weeks vacation per year. And with 6 plane tickets to buy, it's definitely something we can't do very often.
DW has mixed feelings about going again next year. She had a great time, but there are so many other places that we've wanted to go and never been able to. But I think I've almost got her convinced that with the kids at the ages they are now(10,7,4,1), WDW is the best place to go. I've been trying to tell her that the kids would enjoy places like Hawaii, Europe, and the Carribbean more when they are a few years older.
I'm hoping we can make it back next February or April.

We just got back yesterday, and I'm really feelin' the blues today
But, we'll be going back in October (just DW and me!), so I have something to look forward to!

My last trip was in March 2004, and I felt awful for a couple of weeks. Then I found this board in May and started reading, and missed it even more! Then when I finally found out in March I'd get to go back in June, I've been reading these boards until I'm cross-eyed!

They ought to come up with a name for our problem-- perhaps PDD: Post-Disney Depression? Sorry, I was a psych. major and couldn't resist.

My last trip was in May 2005. My next trips are not planned until Oct 2005 and Dec. A friend of mine works for Delta and called me up on yesterday wanting to know if I wanted a buddy pass to Orlando I was like please don't do this to me. I have limited funds at this point, gas is high, etc. I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO
