I'm sorry I just can't wait until October.

That is just too far away! So here I am, sitting here figuring out how I could do a small weekend trip. Maybe a Friday, Saturday, Sunday in mid-June. Money is the issue, since I'm saving for October's trip here. Thankfully DH has a sweet Grandma that lives only 10 minutes from there, so I'm thinking about seeing if she'd let us stay there. I know it would be crowded being a weekend. But DH is busy at work next month so that's all we could do. But hey it IS Disneyland, how can I pass up. But see we ALWAYS do Disneyland in the summer, HOW can I go without it? And we could get on Nemo before October too that way! DH is gonna kill me, but I just can't wait until October I need my Disney fix NOW!!

Thinking June 15/16/17. That's our Anniversary also, 11 years married. Those are probably bad days with Nemo opening the week before huh? Oh I'm losing it I know!

Just buy some A/P's and save some money for your next trip!!! Start with PH's to avoid the blackouts - upgrade in the end - and the Oct trip is much cheaper!!! Stay with Grandma and the room is free - and just don't eat that much!!!

(Sorry - I suffer from delusional bouts of bad disney math - but check my sig - I am going in June and Oct )

A/P's now why didn't I think of that. That's a really good idea, and since I'm buying tickets for October it will save me money in the end. I like! LOL

EXCELLENT advice! That's what we did. If you can time your October trip around the AP Nights special resort hotels discounts it will make a really big difference too.

Have a great time!

Thanks you guys, I knew you all would understand. Not like some people who have said "But aren't you going in like 4 months?" LOL They just don't get it!

Were not gonna stay with Grandma afterall. Hoping for Hojo's, gotta call there tomorrow and see what deal I can get. I didn't really want to impose too much on her. I know everyone goes there and drags her to DL. LOL So we'll spend some time with her, and invite her of course. But I think we'll be more relaxed in a hotel (with a pool and free cont. breakfast) anyway.

Sounds like a plan, I am sure it will work out!!! Now just call and try to get that entertainment card rate and you'll be golden!

I'm sure this won't change you mind, or your enthuiasm, but I don't think HoJo's offers cont. breakfast.

Oh really? I didn't know that. Good to know, even though I didn't end up making my reservation there anyway. The only thing they would offer me was 10% off for the Entertainment book rate. Which came out to be around what I was finding online anyway. So we opted for the Carousel Inn, mainly because it was even closer yet, and if I was going to pay a higher rate I wanted CLOSE (BWPPI didn't have openings). Seems like most are good reviews so I'm hoping this will be good.

Have a great trip (and sorry if I led you down a bad path!!! )

I can really relate! We're going to DL in October too. But I'm constantly thinking that it's just too long to wait. I want to go somewhere in June.

I hope you have fun on both of your trips!

You know I was needing someone to blame!!

Hey Jen, it looks like we'll be there at the same time. We're arriving on Oct
9th and leaving on the 15th. We're also staying at the GC.
